Chapter 1443 - 1527: Biting Off a Piece of Flesh
For the time being, she remained still, seeking a suitable opportunity.
The martial artist’s five senses were extremely alert.
Qinghe gradually sensed something was amiss.
Although the stench of blood was heavy outside, there was another faint, almost indistinguishable scent of blood inside the house, nearly overshadowed by the strong smell from outside.
He suddenly got up and then dashed towards Dong Huiying like an arrow. He saw Dong Huiying with her head bowed, and as suspicions formed in his heart, he suddenly reached out, trying to pry open her mouth, but Dong Huiying suddenly grinned, revealing a mouthful of small teeth stained red with blood.
Chomp!
She bit down hard on Qinghe’s wrist, using all her strength. Her teeth pierced through the skin, biting down to the bone, and she tore a piece of flesh from Qinghe’s hand.
"Ptooie!"
She spat the piece of flesh onto the ground. At the same time, she pulled out the silver hairpin from her head.
Instinctively, Qinghe slapped Dong Huiying on the shoulder, but remembering that she was just an ordinary person in terms of physique, he withdrew some strength at the last moment. Still, the sound of breaking bones suddenly echoed. Dong Huiying let out a muffled grunt, but the hand clutching the silver hairpin suddenly attacked Qinghe, piercing his skin, the sharp point of the silver hairpin plunged into Qinghe’s chest.
At the same time, she kicked Qinghe in the abdomen, then performed a kip-up to leap off the bed, fleeing out the window without looking back!!
Qinghe clutched his chest, staggering back two steps.
"Damn it!"
The hidden guard lurking in the shadows, upon hearing this curse, immediately hurried over.
"Young Master!?"
"Chase her!"
Qinghe’s chest was stained with blood. Immediately, two hidden guards chased after Dong Huiying through the window, while another supported Qinghe.
Qinghe’s expression turned grim as he pulled out the silver hairpin lodged in his chest. If not for his own quick reflexes, instinctively turning to the side, the silver hairpin would have pierced his heart.
"That damn woman!"
He clenched his fist, having thought the acupuncture point technique infallible, only to find that the opponent’s points had been unsealed. He was too careless, should not have made such a foolish mistake, yet he did. Was it because he was too preoccupied by the news of Baobao’s death, or because he underestimated that woman?
After Dong Huiying jumped out the window, she tore off the white clothing covering her to wrap her head, preventing the wound from dripping blood and leaving traces of her escape on the snow.
The heavy snowfall had not yet completely melted, making footprints easily visible in the snow. She had been worried about this before, knowing that even if she unsealed her acupuncture points, it would not remain hidden for long. And if she were to escape directly, with no inner strength and her opponent’s martial prowess, following the clear footprints in the snow, it would be easy to capture her again.
But now, the situation was different.
Bandits? Haha, such adorable bandits!!
Dong Huiying’s escape route was very clear. She jumped out of the window, circled halfway around, came to the front of the house, and targeted a bandit, suddenly pulling him off the horse while she mounted it herself.
"Hyah!"
She galloped away from the small village.
The hidden guards, seeing her escaping on horseback, hurriedly seized a few horses and rushed in pursuit.
Dong Huiying looked back, then whipped the horse into a gallop. In this chase, they covered dozens of miles.
The cold wind was biting, and she wore only a single white garment, much too thin. The dizziness from blood loss made her consciousness fuzzy, but with the relentless pursuers behind her, if she fainted here, she would definitely be caught and taken back.
No, she refused!
She shook her head fiercely, facing the cold winds of the not yet arrived early spring, she struggled to stay awake.
