Chapter 608: Take Her Life?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
She happened to see a woman in red jump down from the roof and land on the wall. Then, she looked at her and jumped down again.
She disappeared before her eyes.
Wasn’t this lady clearly luring her over?
Why would someone lead her there?
What was it?
It seemed that the woman in red was quite skilled…
Jiang Yue opened the door to the backyard suspiciously. As soon as she stepped out of the backyard, she saw the corner of the woman’s red dress disappear around the corner of the alley.
She furrowed her brows but still followed the lady.
The woman in red chose the empty alleys while Jiang Yue followed behind her. Her eyes observed the surroundings calmly and vigilantly.
Seeing that the woman in red was holding a sword in her hand and had a whip hanging on her waist meant that she should be good at both using a sword and a whip. She had an idea in her heart.
However, she didn’t show it on her face. She was frighteningly calm.
After several turns, they arrived at the intersection between two alleys. It was like a crossroad. There was a big tree next to it. The big tree was obviously old, and its branches and leaves were very luxuriant.
Did she lose the lady?
Jiang Yue looked around calmly.
The woman in red was clearly here just now, but when she came over, she was gone. It was impossible to escape underground. It was not that magical, so that meant… Was she on the tree branch?
Jiang Yue had a better idea of what was going on, but she did not look up at the tree.
She wanted to see what this red-robed woman was up to.
Just as Jiang Yue stopped under the big tree, Xue Yan stopped drawing. He wanted to take a break and go to the kitchen to see if Jiang Yue had finished teaching the two ladies.
However, before he reached the kitchen, he saw that the door to the backyard was open. He thought that someone had opened it and forgotten to close it. He subconsciously closed the door and then continued to the kitchen.
As soon as he reached the kitchen door, he saw that only the two ladies were busy in the kitchen. Jiang Yue was not there at all.
‘The courtyard door was open just now… Was Jiang Yue the one that opened it?’
Xue Yan immediately understood and left the kitchen in case the two ladies saw him and asked him what he was doing in the kitchen. Then, he hurriedly went to the backyard door that he had bolted from the inside, but he couldn’t bolt it again. However, he didn’t allow it to be in an open state, but left it ajar. It was too eye-catching when it was open. As long as someone came to the courtyard, they would see that the door was actually not closed.
In this way, not only would he not attract attention, but he could also push the door open when Jiang Yue came back.
Why did Jiang Yue secretly go out?
Last time, Jiang Yue had sneaked out and brought Shao Shuting back. What would it be this time? Something must have happened. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have left without telling him.
It was not good to go back to the lobby, what if Sifu and Dagui asked him questions? Xue Yan stood in the courtyard, hoping that Jiang Yue would come back soon before anyone else found out.
As soon as Jiang Yue stood under the tree, the woman in red swooped down with a sword in hand.
She wanted to take Jiang Yue’s life.
Jiang Yue’s eyes turned cold when she sensed the movement above her. Just as the sword was about to reach her head, she dodged to the side. The woman in red did not have time to withdraw her sword, and it stabbed into the ground where Jiang Yue had been standing.
It was at this moment that Jiang Yue grabbed the woman’s slender wrist and twisted it without any expression. The sword in the woman’s hand immediately fell out. Jiang Yue caught the sword with a backhand and stabbed it at the woman..
