Dragon's Origin

Chapter 616: Desperate A-Qi (Part 2)

On a vast plain in the Xia Kingdom, a woman was walking forward, utterly lost.

A-Qi didn't know where she was going, only that she was walking aimlessly, not even knowing why she was walking. It was as if moving her legs had become an instinct, requiring no control from her brain. A-Qi could mechanically move her legs without conscious thought.

Ahead was a forest, and A-Qi seemed instinctively drawn to the darkness within, involuntarily heading towards it.

"Hey, there's a beauty!" From within the forest, several cultivators were resting. One of them saw A-Qi staggering into the forest and nudged his companion's shoulder, signaling him to look.

The Xia Kingdom was currently in a time of turmoil. High-ranking officials were being attacked by countless mysterious assassins, and the entire kingdom seemed to have become a hunting ground. Various factions had sent people to cause trouble, and almost every city had assassins and experts from different sides.

Besides these experts who were specifically causing trouble, there were also many opportunists taking advantage of the chaos, all wanting to make a fortune amidst the confusion.

These experts causing trouble in the Xia Kingdom were of varying quality, doing all sorts of things. The group that saw A-Qi was exactly the type of hunters who scavenged for opportunities like hyenas. They would never easily let go of anyone who was alone and worth targeting.

A-Qi was very beautiful, with a slender figure and long, straight, taut legs, which Wang Sheng had always liked. Moreover, A-Qi was wearing Alice's combat suit, which was of excellent quality and accentuated her exquisite figure.

What was the price of a set of women's combat suits from Dream Workshop now? Any professional hunter knew. A-Qi's set would be impossible to get for less than 200,000 gold coins. Even a second-hand set would definitely cost 100,000 gold coins.

Besides, there was A-Qi herself, beautiful and shapely. Stuck in a war-torn country looking for opportunities, these hunters didn't dare to go to the cities to squander and vent, and had been holding back for many days.

A beauty that even Wang Sheng could be tempted by was now delivering herself to these hunters, and seemingly completely lost and defenseless. It was like a feast delivered right to their door!

Wearing a combat suit worth 200,000 gold coins, and likely having a storage ring, which would also be valuable, plus A-Qi's beauty, it was enough to entice five hunters.

All five of them were staring at the lost A-Qi, watching her aimlessly enter the forest, mechanically dodging the vines and tree trunks, like a controlled puppet.

The joyful gazes of the group converged. A fat sheep and a beauty combined into one, could there be anything better?

"Difficult, at least sixth stage, and with rich forest experience." The five people quietly exchanged information, but none of them retreated, all secretly following behind.

Such a good prey, losing it would be a sin.

"She's been traumatized, maybe her family was killed or something similar." An experienced, tall man whispered his judgment: "In this state, either her combat power will explode, or she'll be completely defenseless."

"Do we do it?" After following A-Qi in the forest for nearly a few miles, A-Qi was still acting lost. The patience of the group finally ran out.

"Do it." Among the five people, there were two seventh-stage experts. In this situation, dealing with a sixth-stage woman was no problem. The leader finally made a decision.

With the leader's gesture, the five people dispersed, surrounding A-Qi from several directions.

A-Qi was a death warrior, and also an assassin, and among assassins of the same level, A-Qi could definitely be considered outstanding. Even in this state, A-Qi still sensed something was wrong.

A-Qi, who was walking mechanically, suddenly stopped, and a dagger abruptly appeared in her hand.

In this situation, if the five hunters didn't know that A-Qi had discovered them, then they would really be pigs. But so what? A-Qi was alone in the forest, surrounded by five people, two of whom were at a higher stage than A-Qi, and the other three were two fifth-stage and one fourth-stage. With numbers on their side, could there be any problem?

"Attack!" The leader shouted. They had to act.

As soon as the sound came out, A-Qi's figure suddenly darted forward, then quickly changed direction, disappearing into the forest.

An excellent assassin, even in a life-or-death situation, still has the instinct to fight. As soon as the five hunters appeared, A-Qi instantly judged the weakest one, and the direction she turned was directly towards the fourth-stage hunter.

"She's really a tough one!" The leader sighed, joining the other seventh-stage expert and quickly chasing after her.

Pfft, the fourth-stage hunter's neck spurted blood, his face full of disbelief, and he fell down softly. This traumatized woman actually had an explosive combat power, severing his carotid artery with just one move.

The two seventh-stage experts had already sensitively discovered that after A-Qi killed a companion, her movements seemed to slow down a bit. It was foreseeable that the killer move she had just unleashed had obviously consumed a lot of A-Qi's strength.

A-Qi had already pounced on another fifth-stage hunter. The two fifth-stage hunters were originally in the same direction. Facing A-Qi, they attacked her very tacitly.

The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ said ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ book ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ first ⊥ hair!

Pfft, A-Qi's dagger directly pierced into the shoulder of a fifth-stage hunter. Unexpectedly, the opponent was extremely powerful, forcibly clamping A-Qi's dagger with his muscles and bones. A-Qi couldn't pull it out even after trying twice, and another fifth-stage hunter had already attacked. Helpless, she had to abandon the dagger, dodge, and kick towards the temple of the rushing guy.

Bang bang, the two hunters' fists heavily hit A-Qi's body, and A-Qi's kick heavily hit the correct position, a short dagger popping out from the toe of her shoe, leaving the hunter's temple with a smear of blood.

Her long legs nimbly turned in the air, her body directly jumped over the head of the hunter with the dagger clamped in his shoulder, bang, a kick bounced on the back of the opponent's neck, bringing up another cloud of blood mist.

After solving three hunters in a row, A-Qi only felt a burst of emptiness in her body. As soon as her feet landed, her legs softened, and she directly knelt on the ground.

At this moment, the two seventh-stage hunters had already seized the opportunity and attacked A-Qi from the left and right.

The three companions attracted all of A-Qi's attention and exhausted all of A-Qi's strength. A-Qi perfectly solved the three troublesome companions for them. Not only were there three fewer people to share the money, but it would be more enjoyable for two people to enjoy this beautiful woman than for five people to enjoy her, right?
