Chapter 615: Severely Injured
But she wasn’t able to outrun her opponent.
Having tripped earlier, she could still feel a sense of pain in her body.
Gu Qingjiu turned over and did something rather despicable to the man behind her.
She kicked at his crotch.
As she had whirled around, the other party couldn’t react as fast.
Hence, Gu Qingjiu managed to kick him accurately.
With an agonizing cry, the man—with his similarly quick reflexes—raised his hands, and Gu Qingjiu, who was retreating backward, immediately felt a numbing sensation in her arms.
Mid-air, she seemed to feel some crushed bits flying into the air.
After that numbing sensation had pa.s.sed, she suddenly felt a sharp stab of pain exploding in her arms.
Gu Qingjiu felt as though something was taking a hefty bite out of her left arm. It caused her so much pain that she twisted her arm!
Cold sweat instantly slipped down her face.
Her body stumbled and fell backward.
Then with a bang, she fell, sitting on the floor on her b.u.t.t.
It stunned Lu Ziyang.
He gazed towards Gu Qingjiu, shock flickering across his eyes, his face turning pale in an instant.
That was it. He had made a misstep.
He and Gu Qingjiu might very well die here today.
He really, really shouldn’t have brought Gu Qingjiu around just to carry out his test.
Then again, even Gu Qingjiu was defeated, which meant that Lu Ziyang didn’t have any other means.
His body had some special conditions that made him unable to undergo such vigorous exercise. Back then, he was exceptional in certain areas that he was summoned to work beside Boss.
Alas, this was his first time making a wrong judgment, leading them to such a perilous situation.
This felon…
Just then, the figure—who Gu Qingjiu had attacked its vital part—furiously walked to her side and held her up.
Gu Qingjiu felt a strong hand strangling her neck.
The next moment, she felt her breathing cut off, and she began to descend into an excruciating state.
Even the pain in her arms couldn’t compare to the pain of being unable to breathe.
She merely subconsciously struggled. But just then, she raised her right hand, and a silver glow flashed by. She stabbed hard into the felon’s jaw, who was strangling her by the neck.
“Pff!”
Gu Qingjiu could feel a warm liquid splattering across her face.
It was the intense, revolting odor of blood.
Unable to maintain his grip, the man let go of Gu Qingjiu’s neck and stumbled two steps backward.
The dagger was hard to pull out because Gu Qingjiu had exerted all her force earlier and made a deep stab.
After some staggering, he collapsed to the floor in an unresigned manner with a hand to his neck, not far away from Gu Qingjiu.
Bam!
That instant he fell, it stirred plenty of dust up and flew into the air.
Having gotten her liberation, Gu Qingjiu fell onto the floor and let out a few violent coughs.
Her gamble paid off.
Like she had hoped for, the man strangled her by the neck instead of stomping on her with his foot.
Or else, she wouldn’t have the chance to make that fatal stab with the dagger Lu Ziyang gave to her.
Although how it happened was rather dramatic, at least she and Lu Ziyang were safe now.
As though awakened from a dream, Lu Ziyang instantly reacted to what was going on. He came over and lifted Gu Qingjiu. As for Gu Qingjiu, her mind tensed to the extreme since there was a throbbing pain in her arm.
With a loud ‘pa’ sound, as though something had broken, Gu Qingjiu fell unconscious.
In her dazed state, she seemed to hear Lu Ziyang’s anxious voice calling out to her.
Am I going to die?
I wonder what the Chief Instructor is doing right now…
