At the critical moment, under the cover of the thick smoke, they did not notice the girl had already approached them nimbly.
Qiao Nian kicked a person down.
"A sneak attack!" another person shouted.
Qiao Nian hit the back of his neck with a hand knife, causing the tall man to faint.
However, his warning was timely. Shadow and the remaining people from the hidden families noticed the commotion beside Lu Zhi.
Shadow immediately chased after her. "Stop her!"
Lu Zhi was their only trump card.
He could not be lost!
However, Qiao Nian's arrangement was better.
Jian Jin and Tian Chen's men had already arrived.
She lowered her head and asked the man whose hands and feet were tied, "Are you alright?"
Lu Zhi's face was pale as he looked at her and smiled. "I'm not dead."
Qiao Nian took out a small dagger and cut the rope around his wrist. Then, she sized him up and nodded. "As long as you're not dead."
