Chapter 289: Pay or Sacrifice?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lu Qi stared at Rong Qi, shaking her head vigorously and making muffled sounds. Tears streamed down her face, a mixture of fear and concern in her eyes.

The leader suddenly grabbed Lu Qi’s hair and taunted Rong Qi, “Miss Rong, money or sacrifice? You choose.”

Rong Qi lowered her gaze, adjusted the black hat on her head, and slowly curved her lips into a smile. She said, “I choose… to fight!”

With that, Rong Qi lunged toward the bald man at the front, engaging in a rapid exchange of blows.

Capture the leader first; Rong Qi was well-versed in that principle.

“You’re brave! Let’s see how you plan to escape!” The leader said, then exchanged a few moves with Rong Qi. She was forced to step back a few paces, quickly surrounded by a group of men.

Rong Qi’s attempt at a surprise attack failed, only boosting their confidence.

The henchmen behind the bald man mercilessly mocked, “With your skinny arms and legs, forget about defeating all thirty-one of us here. If you can take down two of us, that would be impressive!”

Lu Qi watched Rong Qi, trapped by the crowd, overwhelmed by worry. She no longer cared about her own fear, instead shaking her head, urging Rong Qi to escape.

However, Rong Qi remained composed. When those men taunted her, she unwrapped a lollipop and put it in her mouth. With a swift motion, she launched herself into combat again.

The bald man and his henchmen sneered at Rong Qi, far below them in their eyes. However, less than ten minutes later, their expressions gradually stiffened.

Inside the warehouse, Rong Qi’s fists flew, too quick for the eye to catch. All they could see were their comrades flying out, while Rong Qi remained unharmed.

“Damn this girl!” said the fallen man as he picked up sticks from the ground and charged at Rong Qi.

With a swift move, Rong Qi jumped onto a stack of sandbags. If not for the pain in her abdomen, she would have finished these men off much earlier. However, now she could feel her strength dwindling.

At the same time, the bald man seemed to sense Rong Qi’s fatigue. He bellowed, “Take her down now! Whoever catches her first can claim her!”

The bald man’s words ignited the men’s excitement, and their pursuit became even more intense.

Rong Qi gritted her teeth, fighting to endure.

As more people fell to the ground, the bald man and his three henchmen joined the fight. Their combat skills were several times better than the previous group, making it even more challenging for Rong Qi to handle them.

Suddenly, a miscalculation caused Rong Qi’s abdomen to be kicked, causing her to stagger back several steps with a muffled groan. She leaned against the wall, breathing heavily.

Yet, before Rong Qi could catch her breath, someone appeared on her left with a dagger aimed at her.

Rong Qi swiftly turned to avoid the attack, but her wrist was still nicked, and fresh blood flowed down her fair hand, creating a vivid array of colors.

Rong Qi’s expression grew cold, and with a flick of her hand, a silver needle shot out, hitting the person’s knee. A cry of pain rang out as the person clutched their knee, unable to stand up. Her expression remained icy as she snatched the dagger from the fallen person’s hand and struck again.

This time, the group of men could no longer hinder the angered Rong Qi. Everywhere she went, she left a trail of blood..
