“Hehe.”

Selena laughed coldly, walking over to Gu Li and stared at her excessively beautiful face, a flash of jealousy quickly passed through her eyes.

She hated women who were prettier than her the most, she must destroy this face.

Thinking of this, Selena grabbed Gu Li’s chin, the smile on her face filled with malice: “You do not seem to fear death. However, I don’t want your life, what I want…is your face.”

“What?”

Gu Li thought she was hearing things and widened her eyes, “Are you insane?”

Fearing that Selena would really hurt Gu Li, Murong Si sternly warned: “Dare to touch her and you’ll see!”

His words successfully attracted Selena’s attention. Selena released Gu Li and turned towards him and Mo Shiting.

Gu Li took this opportunity to launch a surprise attack from behind her, successfully retrieving the aerosol can, and astonishingly managed to take Selena hostage.

A skillful pistol appeared in her hand at some point, precisely pointed at Selena’s forehead.

“Hall Master   ”

Everyone was taken aback that Selena would be held hostage by this seemingly harmless girl, they all panicked for a moment.

Gu Li was still holding Selena and walking towards Murong Qian’s direction, threatening as she went: “Listen up, if you want your Hall Master to stay alive, you will let these people go.”

“You…you goddamned wench!”

Selena couldn’t help but swear at her.

“You seem to really not want to live.”

With an emotionless face, Gu Li spoke and pressed the gun more tightly against her.

The cold touch of the gun, the increasingly close aura of death, made her hair stand on end.

Even Selena was a bit scared at this point.

“Let…let them go…”

She stuttered, her eyes filled with reluctance.

Damn, if she wasn’t considering Murong Si, she would definitely make this bastard pay!

The assassins quickly released Murong Qian and the two men once they saw the situation.

However, most of the assassins are still holding their guns, ready for a fight.

While it’s clear to them that Murong Si is one of them, they dare not take the person posing as Mo Shiting lightly. After all, many people here today had witnessed the terrifying abilities of Young Master Mo.

This is a man who singlehandedly wiped out a majority of the Red Flame Hall.

“Brother Si, take Sister Qian and get out of here.”

Seeing Murong Qian still unconscious, Gu Li immediately said to Murong Si.

Murong Si disagreed, “I am not leaving. I will stay with you! Hey, you take Murong Qian and go first.”

He pushed Murong Qian towards the fake Mo Shiting.

Gu Li didn’t insist.

After all, who stays and who leaves doesn’t make much difference to her.

As long as she could successfully get her cousin to safety, she could figure out a way to escape by herself.

But right now, she was a little puzzled. Wasn’t the Black Blood League trying to kill Brother Ting?

Why haven’t they made their move for so long?

Could it be that they’ve realized this was a guard from the Gu family and not the real Brother Ting?

Well, whatever, just get them out first.

“You be quick and take my cousin away.”

The fake Mo Shiting didn’t want to leave, his mission was to protect Gu Li, how could he abandon her?

“That’s an order. Go!”

“… Yes.”

Knowing Gu Li was determined, he didn’t dare to delay any longer, immediately picked up Murong Qian, and quickly left.

Worried for possible changes, Gu Li kept her guard up, staying alert to Selena’s every move.

Fortunately, the two managed to escape smoothly.

After they were out of the doorway and out of sight, Gu Li finally dared to breathe a sigh of relief.

Finally, Selena: “Can you let me go now?”

“What’s the rush?”

Gu Li responded unpleasantly and commanded the group of assassins, “Put the guns on the ground and back off.”

The assassins looked at each other, but they heard Selena: “Do as she said.”

“Yes.”

The assassins obediently placed their guns on the ground and backed off a few steps.

Gu Li pursed her lips and, together with Murong Si, pulled Selena towards the door.

If things were usual, Gu Li would have been able to escape successfully, however, she overly trusted Murong Si.

Just as they were about to walk out of the door, Murong Si suddenly clutched his chest and fell.

“Brother Si    ”

Gu Li yelled urgently.

During the distraction, Selena swiftly broke free from her grip.

Gu Li reacted and instinctively wanted to fire the gun, but Selena kicked it away faster. The two then engaged in hand-to-hand combat.

Gu Li was skilled, but she was still outnumbered. In a short while, they caught her..
