1047 Old Grudges and New
Mu Yali quickly crawled to the window, frantically and urgently searching for the source and nodding to indicate she agreed.
At this moment, another arrow flew over from somewhere. Mu Yali was shocked, but when she saw a cloth tied to it and a small cloth bag under the cloth, she immediately took it off excitedly.
“Knockout powder, one sniff and they’re down!”
Mu Yali immediately understood what the other party meant. She suppressed the excitement in her heart and thought about her escape route.
After lunch, Mu Yali raised her chin arrogantly and said to one of the bodyguards, “Go and call all the bodyguards in. Remember, it’s all of them. Not one less.”
The bodyguards exchanged puzzled looks but complied with Mu Yali’s orders.
A minute later, all 15 bodyguards stood in front of her. Satisfied, Mu Yali stood up and let them stand in a circle.
Although the bodyguards were puzzled, they still stood in a circle obediently and surrounded her to see what she was going to do next.
“I know you’ve had a hard time because of me. So, as a token of appreciation, I’ve learned a little magic trick to show you. Watch closely now!”
She smiled slyly, swiftly pulling a handkerchief from her pocket. As the handkerchief appeared, a white powder scattered, quickly spreading a faint, sweet scent. The bodyguards reacted immediately, covering their mouths and noses, but it was too late.
Of course, Mu Yali herself was also affected. She probably never dreamed that the knockout powder could actually seep into her body through her skin without inhaling. Therefore, when the bodyguards fainted, Mu Yali did not escape the outcome of fainting.
The moment she fell to the ground, Mu Yali’s heart skipped a beat. Her head was dizzy, but she knew that she had been tricked. She regretted it even more.
A moment later, a man swaggered in. This person was Su Mingzhe’s subordinate. He came to Mu Yali and kicked her, who was unconscious. He sneered in disdain. “Stupid enough to trust a stranger over your own family. You deserve whatever comes to you!”
That’s right. Previously, Su Mingzhe did want this stupid woman to fight Qin Xi. However, on second thought, since Qin Xi could kill the elders of the Su family without batting an eyelid, she was definitely not someone ordinary people could deal with.
Therefore, he thought that since Qin Xi was a difficult person to deal with, he would make Mu Min the culprit behind Mu Yali’s death. As for why he did not use Mu Min as bait, it was because Mu Min was protected by an expert.
The man took out a syringe and bent down to stab Mu Yali’s neck. Suddenly, there was a sound of air being torn apart. The man’s wrist was pierced by a tree branch. At that time, he did not react. It took a few seconds for the pain to spread to his brain and nerves.
A miserable scream sounded. He held his wrist tightly and looked out of the door with killing intent.
“You are…” When the man saw the tall figure, a familiar look suddenly flashed across his eyes.
“Captain of the Assault Team, Skeleton, Shadow, long time no see!”
Wang Zhiqiang walked out of the shadows like an ancient general. An aura that made him submit erupted from his body. Even Shadow could not withstand it and had a shocked expression.
“How come?”
“You want to ask why I know ancient martial arts?” Wang Zhiqiang smiled. “To be honest, I have to thank you for making us brothers suffer. If not for that, we wouldn’t be where we are today!”
