Chapter 140: Jungle Assassination 2

e, early as always, Minister Rong," Su Qingying greeted with a forced smile, her eyes holding a clear distance. 。Although he always wore a warm and harmless smile, Su Qingying always felt like she wa...“Damn it, Zhao Tianqi this bastard has no other skills, but his escape skills are top-notch! Let him get away! This old lady will go out and settle the score with him!” Su Qingying was furious. She threw down her bow and arrow, turned to Jun Linyue, only to see his face contorted in a strange expression. "A-Li, what's wrong with you"

Jun Liye sized her up with two glances, then spoke in a tone of disgust: "You reek of blood."

Su Qingying: "..."

Because Zhao Tianqi delayed them, the sky had completely darkened. The rain was still falling, pouring down and hitting the leaves with a rustling sound. It was pitch black, and they couldn't see the road ahead at all.

Su Qingying looked around at the darkness, frowning, "Ari..."

Jun Li's breath sank, and she quickly pulled her to his side. His blood-red eyes flashed with streaks of cold light, "Shh, there's killing intent!"

“Are there more Weren't all of Zhao Tianqi's people killed Is there a second wave” Seeing Jun Liye so serious for once, Su Qingying couldn't help but restrain her frivolous attitude. Her gaze swept around like an eagle, cold and sharp.

"No, this time it's a real killer, with heavy killing intent, even more dangerous than Zhao Tianqi's people. You have to be careful." Jun Li Ye said so, her dazzling blood-colored eyes concealed a chilling light that made people tremble, and a bloody smile appeared on her peerlessly beautiful face.

"Hmm." Su Qingying's phoenix eyes narrowed dangerously, her aura no less domineering than Jun Liye's.

After some thought, she speculated: "Could it be someone sent by Xuan Yuan Luo Chen That scoundrel hates me! His Long Ying Wei's murderous aura is no joke."

Jun Liye nodded slightly, refuting: "No, Xuan Yuan Luocheng wouldn't be stupid enough to make a move at this time. He's probably even more worried about our safety than we are."

"Here we come!" The moment the words left his lips, Su Qingying and Jun Liye sprang to action with incredible synchronization.

With a deafening explosion, the ground where they stood caved in, leaving a deep pit and sending grass flying everywhere.

Holy crap! It's a bomb!

"Does this continent already have explosives" Su Qingying landed on the rock, her face pale, her whole body covered in frost.

The deafening explosion and sky-high flames brought back the scene of her dearest friend dying for her, Su Qingying's heart ached slightly. A heavy sadness enveloped her.

“Ying’er Ying’er, what’s wrong” It wasn’t until Jun Liye’s concerned voice reached her ear that Su Qingying managed to break free from the painful memories. Unknowingly, tears streamed down her face, her eyes filled with pain, “A-Li…”

"Are you hurt somewhere" Jun Li's breath hitched. He had never seen her so sad; she seemed to be carrying a heavy past, something he couldn't understand and that made his heart ache.

“It’s nothing, some sand just got in my eye. I’m fine now.” Meeting his bottomless gaze, Su Qingying quickly turned her head and wiped away her tears, instantly suppressing her grief so he wouldn’t see anything.

A faint fragrance wafted from the nostrils, Su Qingying's eyes narrowed slightly, she felt familiar, as if she had smelled it somewhere before.

After a moment of thought, Su Qingying immediately knew who it was. She turned her cold face towards the pitch-black surroundings and said in a loud voice, "Lan Xinyao, I know it's you. If you want my life, come get it yourself! Don't send some useless pawns.

"

A moment of silence passed, and just when Su Qingying suspected she might have been wrong, Lan Xinyao suddenly leaped out from a distance. "Su Qingying, do you know it's me"

Sure enough, it's you!

Su Qingying sneered: "Nonsense, with that stench of scum on you, I could smell it from miles away. I knew you wouldn't give up, but I didn't expect you to make a move here."

Hearing this, Lan Xin Yao laughed maniacally, a cruel bloodlust appearing on her lips. "Now I am alone and have nothing to fear. Even if I die, I will drag you down with me! Today, there is no escape for you!"

"Plenty of people want me dead, who are you to act like you're important" Su Qingying rolled her eyes and gave her the middle finger.

"...." Jun Li stood behind him, the corner of his mouth twitching.

"You're looking for death! Come, kill her!" Su Qingying's actions only served to further enrage Lan Xinyao, a sinister and vicious look contorting her beautiful features.

In the darkness, several black shadows came killingly, with murderous aura!

With Jun Liye leaning back against her, Su Qingying's pretty face was filled with seriousness, not a shred of fear, but rather a strange excitement. "A Li, protect yourself and don't get distracted for me. I can handle it. Remember, don't use your internal energy."

Jun Liye glared at her, silently lowering his head as if conceding. He shot out towards the oncoming black-clad men, becoming entangled in a fierce battle with them.

Even without using his internal energy, Jun Liye's martial arts skills weren't to be underestimated.

"Damn it, this bomb is such a pain in the ass. I'm a goddamn gold-medal special agent from the 21st century! When have I ever been this pathetic If this were modern times, I'd mow you all down with an AK47 in a heartbeat."

Not only did she have to fight the men in black, but she also had to be careful to dodge the bombs Lan Xin Yao kept throwing. And these men in black just wouldn't quit, they kept coming at her wave after wave. Su Qingying really had a tough time fighting like this.

The Gold Medal Agent of the 21st Century

Jun Li Ye had been keeping a close eye on Su Qing Ying's every move, listening to her words without missing a single one. A hint of doubt flickered in his eyes, once again casting suspicion upon her identity.

For a moment of distraction, Jun Li ye was accidentally stabbed. Su Qingying's heart ached as she raised her sword and slashed at the man in black. "Ah Li, you're hurt"

"It's nothing, just flesh wounds," Jun Liye said with a slight narrowing of his long lashes, concealing the thoughts in his eyes. "They are using attrition warfare, aiming to exhaust our strength. Once we show even the slightest flaw, Lan Xin Yao will launch a frenzied attack."

"When can our reinforcements arrive" Su Qingying's face was grave. Lan Xinyao wasn't like Zhao Tianqi, that fool. She clearly came prepared. This battle was going to be troublesome.

"Within half an hour at most." While resisting the endless attacks of the black-clad men, Jun Liye replied.

Time was running out; their reinforcements wouldn't arrive in time. After much deliberation, he spoke softly to Su Qingying, "Qingying, I'll cover your retreat. The enemy outnumbers us, and I can't risk you being caught in the crossfire."

Su Qingying's eyes sank slightly, she pressed tightly against Jun Liye's side, her voice serious with a hint of obvious anger, "I won't leave! I, Su Qingying, have been wandering south and north for many years, when have I ever been a deserter Not to mention that you are my man, I would never abandon you to escape alone. At worst, we die together. Anyway, in eighteen years, I'll be a good man again."

"Ying'er!" Jun Liye's voice was unquestionable.

"Ali, I'm not a flower in a greenhouse. I don't want to always hide behind you. I have the ability, and I want to fight alongside you, conquering the world!" Her eyes met his, fearless and unwavering. In their calm clarity, there was a determination that took his breath away.

Jun Liye was stunned by her resolute gaze. He stared at her for a long time, then sighed, "Ying'er, you are so arrogant, yet your arrogance is what makes me love you uncontrollably."

They looked at each other and, as if by unspoken agreement, both broke into arrogant smiles that spoke of conquering the world. "Very well," they said in unison, "we shall die together!" around Jun Liye, do you Are you secretly in love with her" Every time someone told her to stay away from Jun Liye, she felt a surge of anger that she couldn’t explain."You're overthinking things!" S...
