“I won’t say more on this. You should know your limits,” Bu Feiyan said, unwilling to dwell on the issue any longer. Her expression turned angry as she demanded, “Where is Wang Haoran?”

This scoundrel, having already targeted my Seventh Sister, probably dares to make a move on my Sixth Sister too. Someone like him needs to be stopped! I must act to prevent further harm.

“Why is this woman causing trouble again?” Wang Haoran, hidden in the jungle, couldn’t help but grumble to himself upon seeing Bu Feiyan’s sudden arrival.

It had been the same with Qiu Qianwei last time, and now with Ji Shuiyao.

He had planned to use an excuse of needing to relieve himself, pretend to be bitten by a snake and on the verge of death, to make a dying wish that Ji Shuiyao would agree to…

Given Ji Shuiyao’s reaction during the drowning incident, he was likely to succeed.

But Bu Feiyan’s sudden appearance had completely disrupted his plan.

“What should I do now?” Wang Haoran pondered.

Rustle…

He heard a faint sound of something moving through the grass.

“Could it be a large predator?” Wang Haoran was slightly startled and immediately activated his X-ray vision.

Seeing Bu Feiyan’s unfriendly expression, Ji Shuiyao asked warily, “Fourth Sister, what do you want with Wang Haoran?”

Bu Feiyan replied, “That’s none of your concern. Just tell me where he is…”

As she spoke, Bu Feiyan, with her keen hearing, suddenly detected an unusual sound.

She lunged forward, taking Ji Shuiyao with her, just in time to avoid several sharp arrows that embedded deeply into the ground where they had just been standing.

“Assassins!”

Already on high alert due to a previous ambush, Bu Feiyan was shocked by this sudden attack.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.

Before she could think further, more arrows flew from the surrounding jungle.

Bu Feiyan continued to dodge, holding onto her Sixth Sister.

An arrow grazed the top of her hair, narrowly missing her.

After a round of arrows, the jungle fell silent for a brief second or two.

Clearly, the attackers were reloading their weapons.

In this extremely short period, Bu Feiyan quickly assessed her options for escaping.

The result was zero.

These assassins were obviously prepared. Bu Feiyan doubted she could escape even if she were alone, let alone while protecting her defenseless Sixth Sister.

Abandoning her Sixth Sister to save herself was unthinkable.

But protecting her sister meant certain death.

However, Bu Feiyan still held onto a sliver of hope and said, “You are after me, so there’s no need to harm an unrelated person. I am willing to surrender, but if you push me, I will at least take some of you with me!”

As her voice fell, no more arrows flew from the jungle.

The hidden figures in the jungle slowly emerged.

Ji Shuiyao was pale with fear. “Fourth Sister…”

Bu Feiyan reassured her, “Sixth Sister, don’t be afraid. I won’t let anything happen to you.” She then tore a piece of cloth from her clothing and blindfolded Ji Shuiyao.

As an assassin, Bu Feiyan knew how ruthless her peers could be. But if her sister didn’t see their faces, there might be a slim chance for survival.

Although this chance was very slim, she had no other options.

Eight assassins emerged from all sides, holding crossbows aimed at Bu Feiyan.

When they were about ten steps away, they stopped.

These were the eight core assassins of the Black Mamba Assassins. In a one-on-one situation, they admitted they were no match for the Lady Judge.

Although they had the advantage in numbers now, they were still very cautious.

Because within ten steps, the Lady Judge, as a top assassin, could potentially kill all eight of them instantly.

Seeing their caution, Bu Feiyan couldn’t help but feel a twinge of regret.

Bu Feiyan then turned Ji Shuiyao towards a direction and gently pushed her. “Sixth Sister, walk straight ahead. After twenty steps, remove the cloth from your face, but don’t look back. Get on the fast boat and leave immediately!”

Ji Shuiyao hesitated, “Fourth Sister, I can’t…”

Bu Feiyan cut her off, “Do you want me to die with regrets?!”

Facing this emotional plea, Ji Shuiyao reluctantly decided to follow her Fourth Sister’s instructions.

She began to move, but as she passed by one of the Black Mamba assassins, he held an arrow to her neck. “Don’t move.”

Ji Shuiyao froze, not daring to move an inch.

Bu Feiyan shouted angrily, “You are breaking your promise!”

She had already resigned herself to dying, hoping only to secure a chance for Ji Shuiyao’s survival. But it had all been an illusion.

The lead assassin sneered, “The first rule of being an assassin is to abandon everything to kill the target. We’re in the same profession, and you talk to us about trust? Isn’t that laughable?”

After speaking, the leader immediately gave the order, “Leave no survivors…”

Before he could finish the word “survivors,” his voice abruptly stopped. A leaf was embedded in his forehead, with half protruding out.

The leader’s tall and strong body fell to the ground with a thud.

Killing with a leaf!

Bu Feiyan was stunned.

Having practiced internal martial arts herself, she knew how difficult it was to reach such a level.

The remaining seven assassins, witnessing this scene, were filled with panic. They scanned their surroundings for the hidden enemy.

But before they could react, several more leaves flew towards them.

The seven assassins fell like wheat being harvested.

In less than three breaths, all eight assassins were dead.

Hearing the strange noises around her, Ji Shuiyao removed the cloth from her eyes and surveyed the scene.

She screamed in shock, thinking it was Bu Feiyan’s doing.

Running to Bu Feiyan’s side, she exclaimed with a mix of surprise and joy, “Fourth Sister, you’re amazing!”

“If I had such skills, I wouldn’t have been running around with you just now,” Bu Feiyan said with a hint of self-deprecation. Then, with admiration, she scanned the surroundings.

This leaf-killing technique was reminiscent of the skills of a senior who had saved her before. Could it be the same person?

She had been longing to find that senior recently, but there had been no news.

Now, facing a life-threatening situation, this senior had appeared again.

Bu Feiyan’s joy was indescribable.
