Young Master in Flower City

The Twelve Walkers dared to say such words, clearly not believing that Shangguan Biyue could escape their grasp. So, informing Shangguan Biyue was of no consequence.

"You're planning to capture Xiao Tianyu's wife to threaten him?"

Shangguan Biyue felt a tremor in her heart, but she continued, "The Seven-Star Tower's actions are truly despicable. As the saying goes, 'Disasters should not involve one's family,' yet you choose to engage in such disgraceful acts for your ambitions. However, I must warn you, it's best not to do this, or the one destroyed won't be Xiao Tianyu, but you!"

"Ridiculous!" Skywalker snorted coldly.

Shangguan Biyue continued, "I'm afraid you only know part of it; Xiao Tianyu and his wife's relationship isn't good. If you capture his wife and anger Xiao Tianyu, not only will he be unfazed, but he also won't be easily subdued for her sake. So, you'd better think it through!"

In truth, Shangguan Biyue also thought of saying that capturing his wife as a hostage was less effective than capturing her. She might better be able to influence Xiao Tianyu, but Shangguan Biyue wasn't foolish enough to expose her relationship with Xiao Tianyu.

"Do you think we'll believe that?" Earth Walker said.

"Believe it or not, it's up to you!" Having said that, Shangguan Biyue went on, "The Seven-Star Tower wants to unify the Martial Combat Realm by any means, sooner or later..."

"Wait... are you stalling for time?" Suddenly, Skywalker interrupted directly. Could she have been seen through?

Shangguan Biyue knew very well that if she could drag things until Xiao Tianyu returned, she would be rescued. But now that she had been seen through, her opponent was evidently unwilling to continue talking. Even if she were to text, they wouldn't give her the chance.

"Go!" At this moment, Skywalker hummed coldly.

Regardless of whether Shangguan Biyue was stalling for time, they were ready to capture her. As soon as his voice fell, the Twelve Walkers' eyes turned cold, filled with murder, and they paced towards Shangguan Biyue, quickly surrounding her in the center.

Then, a white-robed walker spoke, "Lady Shangguan, I hope you don't resist, otherwise you're digging your own grave!"

Having said that, the white-robed walker reached out to grab Shangguan Biyue. Just as they were about to seize her, whoosh~ a cold light flashed, and a short dagger appeared in Shangguan Biyue's hand, drawing a cold gleam towards the white-robed walker's throat.

The white-robed walker's neck tilted, and the dagger swept past an inch from his throat.

"A traitor of the Seven-Star Tower dares to resist, outrageous!" Earth Walker snorted coldly, stepping forward with a roaring aura.

The next second, he formed his five fingers into a claw and struck towards Shangguan Biyue's throat, his move swift as lightning. But Shangguan Biyue, after all, was the top assassin of the Seven-Star Tower. How could she be so easily defeated?

In an instant, the twin-bladed dagger in Shangguan Biyue's hand spun in her palm, flashing coldly, emitting an icy chill as it twisted towards Earth Walker's wrist. He was startled and immediately changed his move to avoid the sweeping cold gleam of the dagger, countering with his hand towards Shangguan Biyue's wrist.

Shangguan Biyue had no intention of lingering in the fight. Her charming figure flashed towards the door. As long as she got out of the villa, the visibility would open, increasing her chance to escape.

Moreover, in Huaxia, it's not allowed for people from the Martial Combat Realm to act recklessly in public.

"Close the door!" Skywalker shouted coldly.

Pa~

The next second, the door slammed shut. Then several figures rushed towards Shangguan Biyue, each possessing enormous strength, pressing Shangguan Biyue's mind heavily.

"Resisting is futile. Surrender peacefully, and you might have a chance to live!" Skywalker snorted coldly.

Shangguan Biyue remained silent. Stepping lightly, the dagger in her hand flickered with cold light, directly aiming for Skywalker's throat, as swift as a shooting star.

"Foolishly stubborn!" Skywalker shouted coldly. As the leader of the Twelve Walkers, his strength was naturally formidable. Just as the dagger locked onto his throat, Skywalker struck out with his palm, a gust of wind swirling forth.

Shangguan Biyue felt a chill, her steps shifting as she pulled out a brilliant arc, dodging aside.

Bam~

The palm imprint landed on a stool, turning it into wood chips instantly. Shangguan Biyue's charming figure flashed, dashing towards the window.

"Trying to leave?"

Earth Walker revealed a hint of murder. Instantly, three walkers blocked in front of the window, attacking simultaneously, enveloping Shangguan Biyue, completely sealing off her escape route. The attacks were just about to land on Shangguan Biyue's chest.

Whiz~

Instantly, a light burst from the window. Bang, the window glass shattered, falling to the ground. The next second, a lettuce leaf came whistling through, shocking the three walkers as they tried to dodge, but the speed of the lettuce leaf was simply too fast.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh~

Three soft sounds spread in the villa, followed by a blossoming of blood. The lethal lettuce leaf embedded itself deep in the wall.

Then, the three walkers clutched their throats with unwillingness, collapsing to the ground.

Seeing this scene, Shangguan Biyue was overjoyed. Had he finally returned?

Besides Xiao Tianyu, Shangguan Biyue couldn't think of anyone else with such formidable inner strength, killing silently with a lettuce leaf.

Killing three walkers with a mere lettuce leaf stunned the remaining nine walkers. Evidently, being able to kill with a lettuce leaf meant this inner strength had reached the peak of perfection.

"Who are you?" Skywalker snorted coldly. "Why hide and show yourself?"

Yet, outside the window, only the whistling wind could be heard; there was no sign of anyone. It was as if the lettuce leaf had flown from nowhere, but the remaining nine walkers could even smell the murderous intent in the wind.

Moments later, apart from the sound of the wind, there was still no movement outside. Skywalker glanced at the black-robed walker, who nodded, his figure flickering as he reached out towards Shangguan Biyue.

At this moment, Shangguan Biyue stood by the window, unusually calm, apparently convinced that someone would help her.

Sure enough, just as the black-robed walker's eagle claw was about to seize Shangguan Biyue's throat, whiz~ a piercing sound suddenly came from outside the window. A dried lettuce stalk, with a sound of tearing through the air, came whistling toward him, causing the black-robed walker's heart to tremble. He dodged immediately but was still a step too slow.

Squelch~

The dried lettuce stalk, sharp as a blade, sliced through his throat, bringing a trail of crimson. The black-robed walker's eyes lost focus, his body collapsing into a pool of blood, filled with despair.

In just an instant, the Twelve Walkers had lost four members, and they still hadn't figured out where their opponent was hiding. Such an opponent instilled fear within them, and just by this capability alone, the Twelve Walkers could sense that this mysterious hidden figure might be on par with their tower master.

"Friend, the Seven-Star Tower is conducting its affairs. I hope you won't interfere!" Skywalker called out to the window, but outside, apart from the rustling of branches, there seemed to be no one.
