Chapter 309: Chapter 309 Keep Your Eyes Open (1)_1

Elder Master Xiao heard what Old Master Xiao had said but didn’t say anything, just turned his head to the other side. This sent Old Master Xiao’s heart plummeting to the bottom of the valley, cold as well.

"Xiao Muli, hurry up, what are you dawdling for?" Xiao Yongxin urged, fearing an accident might happen.

"Muli, don’t do this. If you disable yourself today, Grandpa Xiao will regret it for the rest of his life," Old Master Xiao shouted at Xiao Muli, "Hurry up and throw the knife to me."

Situ Xin frowned at this scene. She let go of Baibai, who she had been holding, and let Baibai get down. She then took out two Silver Needles from the space. "Baibai, when I shoot the Silver Needles, you go and grab the gun from Xiao Yongxin’s hand for me." Situ Xin didn’t want to have rescued Old Master Xiao only for Xiao Yongxin to go crazy with the gun, causing more casualties—that would be a real hassle.

"Yes, Master, I understand," Baibai obediently replied from beside Situ Xin’s feet.

Under Xiao Yongxin’s urging, Xiao Muli picked up the knife and moved to slash his left wrist. As the saying goes, easier said than done. Situ Xin’s Silver Needles shot out in two directions.

Just as Xiao Muli’s knife was about to cut his own left wrist, he felt a sharp pain in his right hand followed by weakness. The knife slipped from his grasp and fell to the ground.

At the same moment, another Silver Needle struck the hand Xiao Yongxin was holding the gun with, eliciting a yelp of pain from him as a sudden weakness overcame his hand. The gun then fell from his grasp. Just then, Situ Xin and Baibai also made their move with lightning speed, leaving their original positions and darting towards Xiao Yongxin.

As Baibai flew out, it reverted to its original size, so it simply stepped on the gun that had fallen to the ground under its tiger paw.

Situ Xin, before Xiao Yongxin could react, closed in on him and grabbed the hand that was wrapped around Old Master Xiao’s neck. With the Bone Splitting Technique, Xiao Yongxin let out a scream of agony.

Those below first saw only a flash of white passing before their eyes. By the time they realized what it was, they heard Xiao Yongxin scream.

"Hmph, the next time you take someone hostage, open your eyes wide. Not everything is yours for the taking," Situ Xin warned Xiao Yongxin, with an edge of danger in her voice.

Saying thus, Situ Xin gave Xiao Yongxin a fierce kick to the abdomen, which led to another howl of pain from him. Meanwhile, Xiao Yongxin’s bodyguards, who by this time had recovered their senses, stood to one side, watching their boss being taught a lesson by a young girl and daring not to step forward. With such a large tiger there, how could they dare? They didn’t want to become the souls under the tiger’s mouth.

And among those who got a clear view of Baibai, a woman exclaimed in alarm, "Ah, a tiger!"

Baibai followed the sound and looked in that direction, letting out a roar. "So noisy." Instantly, everyone fell silent, not daring to make a sound.

Elder Master Xiao, who had just been rescued by Situ Xin from Xiao Yongxin’s men, had hurriedly rushed to his grandson Xiao Muli’s side as soon as he was freed to check for any injuries. "Muli, how are you?" Elder Master Xiao had no time to see who had rescued him.

It was only when Elder Master Xiao saw his grandson staring blankly in the direction of Xiao Yongxin that he lifted his head to follow Muli’s gaze. The sight gave him a start. "Xiao Xin, what are you doing here?" Situ Xin, who was thinking about how to deal with Xiao Yongxin, heard Elder Master Xiao calling her. She looked up and smiled at Elder Master Xiao and Xiao Muli. "Grandpa Xiao, I was just taking Baibai out for some fun and happened to pass by here."

Xiao Yongxin, still in the grip of Situ Xin, felt like vomiting blood upon hearing her words. What kind of coincidence was this, just out for a walk and happening to pass by? He had been on the brink of success, only to have it all ruined by this girl.

The people present twitched at the corner of their eyes upon hearing Situ Xin’s words. This was a little too coincidental.

"Grandpa Xiao, Brother Muli, how should we deal with this person?" Situ Xin felt her hand was getting tired from gripping Xiao Yongxin.

Hearing Situ Xin’s words, Xiao Muli gestured towards the shadows, and instantly a group of mercenaries armed with guns emerged. "Tie up Xiao Yongxin for me," Xiao Muli commanded, then turned his gaze toward Elder Master Xiao, who was shivering on one side. Pointing at him, Muli ordered, "And him, tie him up as well."

"Yes, sir." Four mercenaries stepped forward, two of whom took Xiao Yongxin from Situ Xin’s hand. As these two mercenaries took Xiao Yongxin, they looked at Situ Xin with eyes full of admiration and shock.

Even though they had been hiding in the shadows, they were the ones who had seen everything the clearest. However, they had only seen the moment when Situ Xin and Baibai took action, because their attention had been entirely focused on Xiao Muli and Xiao Yongxin. As a result, they had completely missed Baibai and Situ Xin standing behind the crowd.

But it was the moment when Situ Xin and Baibai took action that left them in awe. Situ Xin’s skills surpassed any of theirs.

When the other two mercenaries moved forward to tie up Elder Master Xiao, he opened his mouth, intending to plead with Elder Master Xiao and Xiao Muli. But just as he was about to speak, he remembered the scene where Elder Master Xiao had begged him earlier. So, he swallowed his plea back down.

Watching the two men being tied and led away, Situ Xin walked over to Baibai, who automatically stepped aside to reveal the gun that had been under Tiger’s paw. Situ Xin bent down, picked up the gun, and placed it in her purse.

Although she didn’t think much of Xiao Yongxin’s gun, Situ Xin still considered it a trophy for herself and Baibai. Besides, Situ thought that even though this gun didn’t compare to her own, with a few modifications it could potentially match the quality of the ones she had. Situ Xin was never one to turn down more weapons.
