Even while saving lives, Zhang Xiaoying kept a vigilant eye on her surroundings.
As soon as the man made a move, she detected it.
Without waiting for him to get close, she threw back her hand, releasing three silver needles which flew towards the attacker behind her.
"Ugh~" The man grunted in pain, falling to the ground motionless, his dagger clattering to the ground.
The government officer's complexion changed drastically, drawing his sword swiftly.
The surrounding civilians screamed in fear.
Yet, Zhang Xiaoying's life-saving actions did not stop— as if the person who had just been ambushed was not her.
Xu Jinyu, facing such a scene for the first time, was very scared, but she did her best to remain calm, handing things to Zhang Xiaoying.
Seeing this, the originally panicked civilians gradually calmed down, watching Zhang Xiaoying save the person while their hearts were in their throats.
