Chapter 105: Evil Incarnate

When Lyca walked out of the passage, she immediately noticed the car that was waiting for them a few meters away from the secret door. She looked back and noticed that the door were actually covered with plants to camouflage it. But, she didn't have the time to even relax. The sound of another car approached the area made her frowned. A few men went out of the car.

She narrowed her eyes at Zhang Zhi. Her initial suspicion about a traitor was indeed true. Someone must have known about this passage. Someone close to her parents.

"Cousin..." Zhang Zhi beamed at her. He was wearing a dark blue tactical suit, a gun was holstered on the right side of his hip. "Where are you going? I heard you tried to poison my grandfather. Are you perhaps running away? I mean... guilty people run."

Lyca's eyes immediately darted towards the four tall men surrounding Zhang Zhi. If her calculations were right, these people were from the Zhang Family. Lyca side-eyed Shen Qui as if silently sending him a signal. She knew his eyes were glued on her face was he immediately noticed the small action. Shen Qui gave a short nod, his jaws clenched. The Glock on his waist was loaded and ready. One-step and these people were dead. His right leg took a single step back.

"Come on cousin... I'm sure you don't want to gather any attention right? I mean... this place is near a village, yes?" Zhang Zhi taunted, his eyes were full of ridicule. "Just come with us. We are not here to hurt you. Everyone just wanted to talk... like normal people. We don't really need to fight." In reality, Zhang Zhi was actually itching to fight against Lyca. His older brother told him about her skills and he wanted to personally test it.

"Move," Lyca said. She calmly put her hands on her hips where a row of knives was neatly tucked. As much as possible, she didn't want to hurt anyone. Of course, she wouldn't bother killing people either but that would mean... using her energy.

"Who are you trying to scare?" Zhang Zhi snorted. "Did you really think you can escape from my family? Are you insane? Even if you escape, we can always use your parents and held them as hostages then we can- " Zhang Zhi didn't continue his words when he felt a small ache on his shoulder. He immediately lowered his head and widened his eyes at the knife that stabbed through his left arm. "You- " He didn't even notice her throw a knife towards him. He was about to say something when the loud sound of a gun echoed.

*BANG*

*BANG*

*BANG*

*BANG*

Zhang Zhi trembled when he noticed that the men next to him were slowly falling. "Hey! Hey! What are you doing?" He couldn't help but scream in panic. But Zhang Zhi had no time to think about them now. All he could think was the fact that his arms are turning numb. Without having second thoughts, his hand reached out to his own gun.

*Swooosh.*

This time, the sound of the knife dancing through the air was much clearer. Zhang Zhi didn't know if it was because of his adrenaline or Lyca deliberately threw it slower. He could only flinched when the knife hit his right leg. He staggered, fear flashed in his eyes. "You- I am still a Huang! Are you really going to hurt me?" His face had now turned so pale, his voice quivering.

"You know..." Lyca uttered in a soft voice as she walked towards him. "I always thought... I had been too kind." She took another step, the sound of branches and twigs cracking beneath her boots filled the air. "So, I will tell you three mistakes that warranted your death."

"You- " Zhang Zhi tried to use his right hand to grab the gun but another knife impaled on his right arm, making him howl in pain. "What are you doing!?"
