Ye Lanzhang extended his hand toward Chu Wuyou but she suddenly kicked him before he could touch her. Ye Lanzhang found himself kneeling in front of her before he had a sense of what was going on.
He, who was now on the ground, did not have a chance to be surprised at the unexpected turns of events. This was because he suddenly felt the sharp edges of a blade being pressed against the smooth skin of his neck.
Ye Lanzhang finally realized his position several moments later. He raised his head and regarded Chu Wuyou who was standing in front of him in full height.
Chu Wuyou appeared calm and unperturbed. Her gaze was as still as water when they penetrated into Ye Lanzhang's eyes. The man felt as if he had fallen into a thousand-years-old ice cave all of a sudden. He was overwhelmed by an icy sensation that was cutting through his bones.
