The invaders chased after Su Jiu for some time but stopped abruptly in their tracks. Where had they gone? Dark clouds covered the night sky. Neither moon nor stars were visible, and they were surrounded by nothing but darkness. Only the shadow of a tree could be vaguely seen. It was dead quiet.
More than twenty men in black outfits stood there, intending to split up to continue looking for Su Jiu and Ji Yuxian. However, at that instant, a flash of light appeared over their heads. It was a reflection from Su Jiu's knife. She jumped down from a very tall tree and unexpectedly appeared in front of the men. Before they had time to react, Su Jiu had already slit some of their throats and decapitated them. Blood gushed out instantly.
