The sky was already dark, and the streets were quiet and empty. The man surnamed Jiang seemed to sense danger and looked back occasionally. He looked like a frightened stray dog.

The two men followed him slowly. When Jiang turned around, they didn’t hide. They just swaggered behind him.

As the man with the surname Jiang walked away, they quickened their pace and followed him at a distance, as if they were playing with him like cats and mice.

The man surnamed Jiang was so scared that he started panicking. He stepped on the corner of his clothes and fell to the ground. The two men had already caught up to him and walked towards him step by step. Two huge black shadows enveloped him as if the death G.o.d had descended.

“Please let me go. I’ll kowtow to you.”

He was terrified. He got up and knelt on the ground to kowtow to the two of them.

The two of them did not speak. They silently admired his fear and helplessness. As he begged, they raised their knives, wanting to cut his throat quickly and ruthlessly.

The man surnamed Jiang was so frightened that he fell to the ground. His body trembled like a leaf. He wanted to escape, but his body seemed frozen and unable to move. He trembled and shouted for help. His sharp voice was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

Ji Shuisheng did not want to meddle in other people’s business. He only wanted to find out why those people had disguised themselves and entered Jin City.

However, this scholar had praised the Xiao Family’s Army before, so Ji Shuisheng decided to save him. He rushed to stop the killer before the man surnamed Jiang had his throat slit. When he was following these people, he had already covered his face. Now, he was not afraid that the other party would recognize him.

Not expecting someone to interfere, the killer was stunned momentarily before he began attacking Ji Shuisheng. The other killer did not forget his mission and went straight to kill Jiang.

“Help, help!”

Seeing that someone had come to save him, the man surnamed Jiang shouted at the top of his lungs. His voice was trembling but much louder than before.

Ji Shuisheng wanted to end the battle as quickly as possible. He pulled out his luan knife and cut off the weapon in the other party’s hand. Then, he cut off his arm with a backhand knife. He turned around and spun in the air. The Luan knife in his hand was stabbed into the shoulder of another killer. His movements were fast and ruthless. The luan knife could cut iron like mud and cut through bones easily.

Ji Shuisheng twisted the Luan saber in the a.s.sa.s.sin’s shoulder and cut off half of his shoulder. The a.s.sa.s.sin staggered back a few steps in pain.

Ji Shuisheng had shown mercy to find out who they were. Otherwise, he would have taken their lives instead of cutting off their arms.

Seeing that Ji Shuisheng was too powerful, the two of them did not dare to continue fighting. They did not even want their severed arms that had fallen to the ground. They covered their wounds and ran away.

“Thank you, benefactor, for saving my life.”

The man named Jiang knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Ji Shuisheng. Ji Shuisheng ignored him and chased after the two killers.

The two men were injured and could not run fast. Ji Shuisheng jumped onto the roof and quietly followed them. Although the two killers were seriously injured, they were still very vigilant. They did not dare to return to their residence after circling several times.

Ji Shuisheng was not in a hurry to follow them around in circles. They were also seriously injured and had lost too much blood. The two killers walked around a few times to ensure no one followed them before entering a residential house. When they closed the door, they even looked back warily to ensure no one was following them before closing the door.

“How did you get injured?”

“Don’t mention it. We met a powerful person. He had a treasured saber in his hand. We were careless and fell into his trap.”

“In the house.”

A low voice came from the courtyard. Ji Shuisheng was about to walk over when the courtyard door opened. He hurriedly hid in the dark.

A few people came out of the courtyard. Two men cleaned up the blood on the ground at the door and walked back along the road to clean up the blood. The other two looked around for the person who attacked their companions.

Ji Shuisheng hid in the dark and did not come out. After they returned and closed the courtyard door, he waited a while before finding a hidden wall and jumping up.

The courtyard was dark, and only the main room was lit up. The two injured killers were probably in that room, and Ji Shuisheng was far away from them, so he couldn’t hear what was happening.

He didn’t jump down rashly and leaned on the wall to observe. Sure enough, someone was patrolling the courtyard. There was more than one person. There were a total of eight people walking back and forth in two groups. With their companions injured, these people were even more vigilant.

Ji Shuisheng realized that their main patrol spot was the west wing. The door was tightly shut, and he did not know if there was a big shot or something in the room.

He waited patiently until midnight, when the light in the main room went out. The two injured killers were helped out of the main room and brought to the east wing to rest.

Two of the patrolling guards were left behind to guard the door. The others were pacing back and forth in the courtyard, not letting down their guard.

Ji Shuisheng wanted to know what was in the west wing.

As he was thinking about it, he heard a child’s voice from the west wing.

“I want to pee.”

Ji Shuisheng’s heart skipped a beat when he heard the childish voice. Who was this child? Why did he need so many people to guard it?

“I want to pee too.”

A few more childish voices sounded in succession, sounding very timid and afraid.

The two guards carried a urinal into the room and waited for a while before coming out. The urinal was left in the room.

The sound of running water came from the room. It was probably the child peeing. Soon, the first child who shouted about peeing shouted again,

“I’m hungry.”

One of the two men stayed behind to guard the place while the other went to get food.

Soon, he returned with a bag of steamed buns and threw them to the children.

“I want to eat meat.”

The child’s voice sounded again, filled with dissatisfaction and protest.

“If you say another word, I’ll cut off your tongue.”

The man who delivered the steamed buns was impatient and threatened the children in the room.

“I want to eat meat, boohoo, 1 want to eat meat.”

Not only was the child not afraid, but he even made a scene.

The light in the main room lit up, and the door creaked open. Someone ordered the two men in a deep voice,

“Touch their mute acupoints.”

“Yes.”

The two of them obediently entered the house. Soon, the house was silent, and the child’s cries were no longer heard.

Ji Shuisheng frowned. Why did these people bring so many children? There were so many children. Since he had seen them, he could not sit idly by.

However, he did not rashly go down to save them. There were more than 20 people who had just gone out to eat. All of them couldn’t go out to eat. There must be people guarding them. There were probably about 30 people.

Even if he was skilled in martial arts, he could not guarantee the safety of the children. He had thought of knocking these people out to save the children but had no knockout powder on him. He regretted not asking Su Qing for some knockout powder.

If Uncle Qu and the others were here, at least they would have the confidence to save the children.

Ji Shuisheng was anxious, although he did not know what they would do with these children. However, it was not a good thing. He was now sure that these people were from the Wan Family Army.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have wanted to kill that scholar who cursed at the Wan Family Army. The Wan Family Army was unpardonable and cruel; these children were doomed..
