Chapter 760: Chapter 760_1

While Yan Ling was sighing and not knowing what to do, a dagger darted towards her face aggressively.

The dagger grazed past her temple and cut a few strands of her hair.

"Don’t follow me, or I’ll kill you!"

Getting over her lingering fear, Yan Ling met the man’s cold, icy gaze.

Damn, when did he notice her?

Would he actually use lethal force on her?

Yan Ling thought that in his rage the man would treat her like he had treated Linxi, completely killing her off.

But after uttering that warning, he did nothing and just turned around and left!

Watching the man’s retreating figure, Yan Ling was quite moved.

She knew that his inaction was not because he was merciful. Instead, it was because he remembered his promise to her, not to kill the innocent.

He really had taken all the words she said to heart!

"King..."

The man in front turned around, his gaze focused coldly on her hand.

Yan Ling followed his gaze and looked at her own hand.

She discovered that she was still holding a wooden stick, appearing ready to attack.

Immediately, she felt awkward and threw the wooden stick onto the ground.

"Well, if I said I was using this to shoo mosquitoes away from you, would you believe it?"

This clumsy lie, more clumsy than anything else, made her feel guilty.

Only a fool could believe this, right?

The man didn’t answer, just kept staring at her coldly.

Taking advantage of this, Yan Ling quickly took two steps forward.

As she approached, a hint of a light fragrance reached the man’s nose.

His expression shook, and hopeful light finally burst forth in his dull, lifeless eyes.

Was it him?!

He had come to find him!

Yet, after he got a clear look at the face of the person in the dark, that hope rapidly faded.

This person was not Wesley at all.

He just had a similar aura to Wesley.

This realization made the man, who had regained some sanity, lose control again over the explosive nature within his body.

The fate of his Wesley was unknown, so why should this person, who possessed a similar aura to Wesley, be allowed to live unharmed?

He must die!

Yan Ling initially wanted to explain her identity.

But before she could say anything, a potent murderous aura engulfed her.

Was King going to kill her?

Although Yan Ling didn’t understand why the man beside her suddenly went berserk, she understood plainly that engaging him head-on would be lethal to her.

But, he didn’t have his wheelchair now, which must be somewhat hindering his movement.

That was her only chance!

She had to knock him down to grasp onto a ray of hope for both of their lives.

"Click!"

The crisp sound quickened Yan Ling’s already tense nerves.

When it rains, it pours, she’d just unwittingly activated a trap at such a critical moment.

"Claire, you idiot, what are you doing?"

Linxi, who was not far away and obviously seeing Yan Ling accidentally activate the trap, instantly started cursing.

Helpless, Yan Ling had been very careful. Who could imagine there was a trap under her feet?

Upon seeing the situation, Scorpion and Mole rushed forward to rescue them.

This time, Linxi didn’t try to stop them, instead commanding, "You must rescue King. If not, be prepared to give him company in death!"

The two didn’t care about Linxi’s order. Their sole focus was to save their boss and Yan Ling.

But after activating the trap, numerous icicles suddenly shot out from all around, heading straight for Yan Ling and King.

Everything happened too quickly, and Yan Ling had no chance to react.

Just as the icicle was about to pierce her chest, the man beside her’s pupils constricted and he embraced her, sparing no thought for his safety...
