Chapter 189 Passing by

Upon hearing this, Su Fuying was greatly alarmed, realizing that something was amiss in this place.

With her skills and ability to hide, it would be difficult for most people to detect her presence.

The prefect did not appear to be a martial artist, and it was even less likely that he would discover her.

Therefore, the only explanation is that there must be people with high internal strength guarding this mansion.

Thinking of this, Su Fuying suddenly realized.

No wonder there were no guards at the entrance of this huge mansion; they were all hiding in the shadows.

Now that she had been discovered, there was no point in hiding any longer, so Su Fuying stopped concealing herself and jumped down from the roof.

As she landed, the person sitting at the dining table shifted his obese body, trying to turn around and check the situation.

However, due to the thick layer of fat on his neck, he had to rely on the support of two women to stand up and turn around to face Su Fuying.

"What brings you here so late at night?" the man asked with a grin, his face full of fat and revealing a few black teeth.

......

Su Fuying bowed slightly and said, "I am passing through Xiping and have urgent business to attend to. I need to leave the city urgently. I wonder if the Prefect could do me a favor?"

"Want to leave the city?"

The prefect's eyes were almost slits as he sized up the handsome young man in front of him, thinking to himself: This kid looks refined and cultured, I wonder where he comes from.

"Yes."

Su Fuying was somewhat displeased and secretly channeled her inner energy, cautiously observing her surroundings.

"Judging from your accent, are you from the capital?"

"Ah."

Seeing his coldness, the prefect felt a surge of dissatisfaction, but he couldn't show it.

These are extraordinary times, and the adults have told us to behave ourselves. After all, the other party's identity is unknown, and it would be difficult to deal with any trouble caused.

So he suppressed his anger and tried to remain polite as he asked, "It's getting late. Why don't you stay here and rest for the night? I'll personally send someone to escort you out of the city tomorrow morning, shall I?"

"No, I have urgent business to attend to and must get going as soon as possible."

Su Fuying was too lazy to waste words with him. Looking at the prefect's hypocritical face, she felt a wave of nausea and almost wanted to vomit again.

She took a deep breath, suppressing the nausea in her heart, and then said calmly, "I have offended the Prefect today, and I will leave now."

After saying that, he turned to leave.

Upon hearing this, the prefect's smile vanished instantly, replaced by a gloomy expression.

He stared at Su Fuying's retreating figure and said coldly, "Want to leave? You've already come all this way, where else do you think you're going?"

He thought to himself, "This guy is really disrespectful to me. How can I let him leave so easily?"

As soon as he finished speaking, three dark figures attacked from all directions like ghosts, appearing in front of Su Fuying in an instant.

Su Fuying was startled and immediately assumed a defensive stance, focusing intently on what was in front of her.

She knew that these three people were not to be underestimated, but what worried her even more was that if she really fought them, she would probably have difficulty winning with the internal energy she had just learned.

By this time, Xiao Yuheng should have already reached his destination. If the battle delays his time and causes him to die from poisoning, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Thinking of this, Su Fuying no longer hesitated, decisively drew the long sword from her waist, and with a flash, quickly met the enemy.

In an instant, the flashing of swords and the clash of weapons were particularly dazzling in the dark night, and the sound of weapons clashing echoed in the air.

"Why hesitate, young master? As long as you stay and follow me, I guarantee you'll live a life of luxury every day."

The prefect stood smugly to the side, enjoying the fierce battle, his eyes gleaming with greed and lewdness as he stared intently at Su Fuying's agile figure.

"The feng shui of the capital is indeed excellent; it has produced such a handsome man. How enviable!"

The prefect muttered to himself, a barely perceptible lewd smile playing on his lips.

The man was still talking non-stop when Su Fuying felt her stomach churning and a strong sense of nausea surged up.

Taking advantage of a brief moment, she shot a silver needle in that direction without hesitation.

However, the prefect did not flinch when he saw this; instead, he stood firmly in place with a disdainful expression on his face.

Just as the silver needle was about to hit his face, a sharp throwing knife suddenly flew out from the side, accurately knocking the silver needle to the ground.

Su Fuying looked over in surprise and saw a man in black standing lithely next to the prefect, in a protective stance.

Clearly, this was the prefect's personal bodyguard.

Seeing that she was distracted, the three men in black became displeased and their attacks became even more ferocious.

The swords clashed, producing a crisp clanging sound. Su Fuying's arm went numb from the impact, and she inwardly cried out in alarm.

It is truly unbelievable that a mere prefect could have so many talented and extraordinary people as his subordinates.

She quickly rolled over to create some distance between them, keeping a wary eye on the three people in front of her, and began to think about how to escape.

"Go! Seize him and take him to his room!" The prefect laughed triumphantly and pointed at Su Fuying, ordering loudly.

Upon receiving the order, the three immediately pounced forward. After several rounds, Su Fuying felt somewhat exhausted. With three people of such strength, it would be too difficult for her to escape unscathed.

"Clang."

A crisp sound rang out, and everyone was taken aback.

Su Fuying casually tossed the sword to the ground, seemingly giving up the fight.

The group exchanged glances, each seeing a hint of doubt in the other's eyes. Was this kid about to surrender?

However, at this moment, a sudden change occurred!

Suddenly, the man in white squatted down, pulled an extremely sharp dagger from his boot, and a resolute glint flashed in his eyes.

Immediately afterwards, he flashed forward like a ghost towards the group of men in black.

Everyone was shocked, completely unexpected that Su Fuying would do such a thing.

Su Fuying held a dagger and unleashed a bizarre sword technique that no one had ever seen before. It was extremely fast and had tricky angles, making it impossible to defend against.

In the blink of an eye, a man in black had been knocked to the ground by Su Fuying, and a dagger was about to plunge into his chest.

The man in black widened his eyes and immediately twisted his body, but he still couldn't avoid the dagger plunging deep into his shoulder.

Upon seeing this, the other two men in black changed their expressions drastically and drew their weapons, preparing to fight Su Fuying.

However, Su Fuying's movements were too fast; they had no time to react and could only watch helplessly as their companion fell.

"Pfft."

Without hesitation, Su Fuying pulled out the dagger, drawing out a string of scarlet blood droplets that splattered onto his white robes, forming eerie flowers.

Seeing this, the remaining two men in black no longer dared to underestimate the seemingly weak young man. They knew that if they underestimated him again, they might suffer the same fate as their companion.

Then, the two exchanged a glance and their movements were surprisingly synchronized, as sword energy, imbued with their inner force, attacked Su Fuying.
