A shapely woman appeared behind the group unnoticed.
The men had no idea when she had arrived.
Her slender waist and feminine aura helped diffuse the tense atmosphere significantly.
"So you brought a bitch to deal with us?", sneered Lai Gou, tossing his cleaver nonchalantly.
It was clear that the woman had come prepared, blocking the only exit.
However, could one woman possibly be a threat to his side?
"Are you Lai Gou?" she asked calmly.
"Why? Looking for me?", Lai Gou passed his torch to his henchman, rubbing his pockmarked scar, "Know me from somewhere? Speak up, at least I'd know who you are."
While Lai Gou and the woman were talking, one of his henchmen, unseen by the woman due to Lai Gou's shielding body, was slowly stretching his crossbow and loading the arrow.
"Duck!" the henchman shouted.
Lai Gou instantly bent down.
Wham!
The crossbow string twanged, and the released bolt flew towards the woman with a whistling sound.
All this happened so suddenly.
