"Maybe it's because you are too unsightly?" Ming Shu smiled at Xiao Rufeng through half-closed eyes. "Is this excuse acceptable? If not I can make up another one for you."
Qing Chen covered his hand on forehead, sighed. He didn't want to stand with this psychopath. People will send him to a mental hospital together with her!
Xiao Rufeng: "..."
Ming Shu's words somehow angered the dragon-snake. He sneered, then leaned over to Xiao Rufeng's ear and whispered something. Ming Shu couldn't hear what they said, but from the expression on Xiao Rufeng's face, she guessed it was nothing good.
Ming Shu broke off a branch on the road side conveniently, waving it about in the air. The leaves rubbed against each other and rustled constantly.
The two opposite turned to this way at the same time.
The green leaves suddenly flew to them like sharp blades, blocking their sight in an instant.
The dragon-snake pushed Xiao Rufeng aside and quickly raised his hand. Then, suddenly, all the leaves were shattered by an invisible power and dropped to the ground.
The opposite woman heaved a regretful sigh.
"You sneak attacked!" Xiao Rufeng stabilized her body and shouted.
The branch in Ming Shu's hand had become bare. She gently waved the branch like a cantor. "What is a sneak attack? I am standing in front of you. You ignored me, now you blame me for sneak attacking? Shame on you."
"What is the difference between your behavior and a sneak attack?"
Ming Shu's lips curled in a light smile, her eyes sparkling with flickers of light. It looked like a calm lake surface being broken, ripples spreading out. Ming Shu looked even gentler in this way.
Xiao Rufeng became a little vigilant.
She had seen many "smiling tigers," who were the most difficult to deal with. Because you never know what kind of dangers and traps are hidden under their smiles.
"You..."
Shua!
The branch swept through the air, making a murderous sound.
Xiao Rufeng felt a black shadow flash past her front. The wind seemed to carry blades, slicing her skin. In the next moment, her body was pulled on by some hand, and her whole person twirled in a circle. After losing her sense of direction, her back hit the cold stone.
Ming Shu's smiling voice sounded out from above her head. "This is called a sneak attack."
Ming Shu flung away Xiao Rufeng's hand, pointing to her chest with the branch. The branch was hanging softly, and it seemed to possess no lethality whatsoever.
But Xiao Rufeng had a premonition. She felt it only required a little effort, and then the woman before her would be able to kill her with this soft, non-destructive branch, piercing her throat.
Xiao Rufeng held her breath subconsciously.
Whizzing—
A few leaves suddenly shot from off to the side toward Ming Shu, and Ming Shu moved sideways to avoid them. She raised her hand to sweep aside several pieces with the branch. But the remaining ones, after having missed the target once, circled back around in midair and continued to fly toward Ming Shu.
"..." Were they equipped with a positioning system?
As Ming Shu was avoiding the leaves, the dragon-snake quickly rescued Xiao Rufeng on the ground, moving her aside.
