The Man In Rage novel Chapter 1872

They watched helplessly as Zhang Zixi's sharp finger cut through the air and went straight into Qiu Mucheng's throat.

She might not be a Grandmaster, but her moves were on par with those high-level skills shared by Mortal Spark on the forum.

Therefore, it was fair to say that Zhang Zixi's capabilities were beyond those of the Grandmasters.

If the Grandmasters had the power to rival the dragon, with Zhang Zixi's current power, she could easily weaponize anything from bamboos to woods.

Hence, it was nothing surprising to see her fight with merely her finger.

At that moment, anguish engulfed Qiu Mucheng whereas Liu Tubing and the rest were totally freaked out.

Unexpectedly, Fan Junior who was being guarded by Shen Fei risked his life and darted over.

Just as everyone assumed that Qiu Mucheng was doomed when they saw Zhang Zixi aiming viciously

at her throat, the latter stopped in the nick of time.

Her finger hung mid-air, about an inch away from ending Qiu Mucheng's life.

Blop!

Huge beads of sweat dripped down the sides of Qiu Mucheng's face.

Each drop fell to the ground and splashed into smaller droplets.

That was so close!

It would not be difficult to imagine the fear Qiu Mucheng had at her very first near-death experience.

Her face was ghastly white when she looked at Zhang Zixi, puzzled.

I just can't figure this woman out. What's her motive? If she wants to kill me, why did she save me and risk offending the Mengs? And if her intention was to help me, then...

While everyone was still dwelling in bewilderment, Zhang Zixi discreetly retracted her energy, and her intimidating aura faded away.

Then, she looked menacingly at Qiu Mucheng. Compared to her previous glances thrown at the latter, she now completely despised her.

“I can't think of a reason why he's so fond of you.”

Zhang Zixi shook her head at the thought of Meng Chuan before heading out.

She would not kill Qiu Mucheng, and neither did she dare to do so.

She was well aware of Ye Fan's power. Even her own grandfather revered him. With that said, she naturally would not look for trouble by challenging a god-like fighter.

Her actions earlier were meant to test Qiu Mucheng.

I thought that she was a unique character, and that's why the man fell head over heels for her. However, I was so wrong. This woman named Qiu Mucheng is just an ordinary plain jane. A weakling, dare I say. I'm definitely better than her in all aspects, be it my great looks, figure, and even my abilities! I just don't understand how could a worthless woman like her win his heart?

Zhang Zixi racked her brains but nothing came up.

Perhaps she lucked out and met him earlier than me, and this has made all the difference.

“Um... May I know why did you help me? Also, who's the man that you were referring to?”

Seeing that Zhang Zixi was about to leave, Qiu Mucheng who had calmed down quickly chased after her, wanting to get some clarification.

Everything happens so suddenly, and I don't have the slightest idea why would she want to help me. What does she mean by the last sentence?

Qiu Mucheng was very curious about all these. She could not help but feel that something fishy was going on.

This was not the first time she came across such a feeling.

Prior to this, she vaguely heard a voice calling out to her right before she was drugged at the office.

When she woke up, she was surprised to find herself in her best friend's house.

Coupled with the presence of this mysterious woman, she had a strong urge to unravel everything.

She felt as if a pair of eyes were watching her, and help would always be extended when she needed it most.

Unfortunately, Zhang Zixi did not answer any of Qiu Mucheng's questions.

On the contrary, she strode forward while pulling Meng Chuan.

When she arrived at the door, she paused and muttered, “There's no need for you to leave this place. Henceforth, no one in Jiangbei will ever hurt you nor are they able to do that anyway. As long as you don't stir up any trouble here, Jiangbei will be a safe place for you.”
