Their eyes met, and they immediately understood each other. Shao Pinxi nodded.
Despite having only one hand and dragging someone along, Huo Junren’s momentum only seemed to increase. The thugs still couldn’t get close.
“Damn!” The leader was trying to stop his nosebleed and stomping his foot, never expecting that a whole group of subordinates couldn’t even touch a hair on Huo Junren.
“Hey! You! Come here!” he called to a nearby subordinate.
“Boss…” the subordinate immediately approached.
“Use this to teach that bastard a lesson!” The leader pulled out a sharp butterfly knife from his pocket.
“Got it!”
The subordinate immediately obeyed, joining the retreating thugs. After moving back and forth on the battlefield, he finally found an opportunity to strike a potentially fatal blow at Huo Junren—
Although Shao Pinxi had been playing the role of being protected by Huo Junren, she hadn’t been idle. Her eyes continuously scanned the battlefield, watching for any vicious moves against Huo Junren.
So when the butterfly knife, dripping with malice, was about to slash at Huo Junren, Shao Pinxi immediately noticed.
“Huo Junren, watch out!”
As she shouted, Shao Pinxi took a quick step in front of him, raising her arm to block the blade.
“What are you doing?” Huo Junren’s face suddenly changed.
In fact, he had long noticed the butterfly knife and was about to kick it away, but before he could, she had already stepped forward to block the blow.
“I’m fine…” she checked her injury, fortunately only lightly wounded.
If this small injury could help him avoid bloodshed, she felt it was worth it.
“Fine, my foot!”
The bright red blood was stimulating Huo Junren’s rage. Whether the wound was light or serious, in his eyes, it was a crime deserving of death by a thousand cuts!
Only he was allowed to make her suffer or feel pain. His target was not to be touched by anyone!
“Ah!” “Yah!” “Help me…”
Miserable screams rose and fell, continuous and unending.
“If this continues, they’ll all die!” Shao Pinxi advised. They were already near death, and if he didn’t stop, it might result in a fatal incident. “Please, stop fighting, okay?”
Shao Pinxi’s persuasion finally made Huo Junren stop his murderous assault.
“Let’s go!” she immediately seized the opportunity to say.
