Huo Jingmo's face was as dark as iron. He quickly drew his pistol from his waist and fired two shots at Bu Zhou.

One shot hit him in the shoulder. Another shot hit him in the head.

Bu Zhou collapsed to the ground with his eyes wide open, without even letting out a scream.

Huo Jingmo's sudden shooting caught everyone off guard, and Bu Zhou fell next to 07, splattering her with blood.

No one expected Huo Jingmo to suddenly fire a shot; they were all shocked by his ruthless decisiveness.

Huo Jingmo's eyes were unusually cold, as if everyone was treating him like a pushover.

A look of surprise flashed across Wu Ying's face, but not much grief. However, a hint of danger appeared in her eyes as she looked at Huo Jingmo.

I really didn't expect that Xiangxiang would still dare to make a move in her hands. Did she think they would protect the child? She wasn't afraid of accidentally hurting anyone. She must be very confident in her marksmanship.

The person lying on the ground, with a shocked look in their eyes, their pupils slightly constricted and their eyes moving slightly, was slowly having the bullet squeezed out of their shoulder.

As the bullets clattered to the ground, Bu Zhou rose to his feet in a bizarre posture. A bullet also fell from the black hole in his forehead.

Blood smeared all over Bu Zhou's face, and his horrifying appearance caused a commotion among the Shadow Pavilion members. No matter how strong their mental fortitude was, they had never witnessed anything like this before.

Huo Jingmo simply put away his pistol indifferently. Although he was shocked, he did not expect to kill a monster like Ruan Qian'an with a few shots.

Whether he's dead or alive, he'll definitely give him those two shots.

Huo Jingmo walked towards the three of them step by step and said, "Hand over the child!"

Chi Xiao tried to grab Huo Jingmo, hoping to calm him down.

His actions were still a step too late; he could only watch Wu Ying and the other two in case they suddenly made a move.

Wu Ying raised her gun, intending to kill Huo Jingmo, but at the moment of firing, her hand was knocked askew by 07.

The gun veered slightly off course and struck Huo Jingmo's feet, momentarily halting his movement.

It was thanks to 07 knocking Wu Ying's hand off balance that the bullet didn't hit her hand.

Because as soon as she fired, another gunshot rang out even faster.

The shot was aimed straight at Wu Ying's hand, but because of the impact of 07, the shot missed and hit the car next to Wu Ying.

Wu Ying had been glaring fiercely at 07, but upon seeing the bullet lodged in the car, her gaze shifted from menacing to astonished. "You're afraid I'll get hurt?"

07 didn't know how to answer for a moment. She just didn't want Wu Ying to hit Huo Jingmo.

After the two gunshots, an eerie silence fell.

In the next instant, gunshots rang out again.

Under the cover of gunfire, Huo Jingmo rushed in front of Wu Ying and kicked the gun out of her hand.

The gunfire stopped while they were fighting to avoid accidentally injuring anyone.

07, holding Xiangxiang, had already slipped away to the side.

Huo Jingmo was about to throw a punch at Wu Ying, hoping to knock her unconscious. Wu Ying tilted her head and easily dodged it.

In the next instant, Huo Jingmo suddenly crouched down and delivered an elbow strike to Wu Ying's abdomen.

Wu Ying grunted and took a step back. She wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and said to Huo Jingmo, "I really underestimated you."

Huo Jingmo frowned and did not answer, focusing all his attention on dealing with Wu Ying. Anyone else would have been knocked down by that elbow strike just now.

Wu Ying gathered her strength in her feet and arrived in front of Huo Jingmo at an extremely fast speed, her long hair dancing with her body.

Wu Yingfei clenched her fist and swung it toward Huo Jingmo's face.

The speed was too fast for Huo Jingmo to notice at first. By the time he realized it, Wu Ying was already very close to him.

It was too late to block at that moment, just as Wu Ying was about to strike Huo Jingmo.

Yan Ling braced herself against the car body with one hand and stepped on the car door with her foot, jumping from one side of the car to the other side of Wu Ying. With the force of the jump, she kicked Wu Ying.

This caused Wu Ying to change the direction of her attack on Huo Jingmo, and instead hit Huo Jingmo's shoulder.

Huo Jingmo involuntarily hissed; the blow almost broke his shoulder.

In the blink of an eye, Yan Ling and Wu Ying were already fighting.

Huo Jingmo glanced at Xiangxiang, whom 07 was holding, and wanted to finish the job quickly.

He pulled a dagger from between his legs and attacked Wu Ying.

The three were locked in combat, and both Yan Ling and Huo Jingmo sustained injuries of varying degrees.

Wu Ying didn't look too disheveled; her fight with the two men was like a cat playing with a mouse, toying with them.

The Shadow Pavilion members came to help and attacked Wu Ying.

Although Wu Ying was able to handle everything, she also gave Huo Jingmo a great deal of space.

Huo Jingmo bypassed Wu Ying and ran towards 07, who stood there neither dodging nor fighting, protected by Wu Ying and Bu Zhou. So many people actually managed to get past them all.

Therefore, it was almost impossible for Huo Jingmo to get close to 07, but unexpectedly, 07 walked to the side, away from Bu Zhou's protective circle.

Bu Zhou, his face contorted with bloodlust and excitement, failed to notice 07's actions.

Huo Jingmo easily arrived in front of 07.

Huo Jingmo was still holding a blood-stained dagger in his hand, though he didn't understand what 07 meant.

Without the slightest hesitation, they wanted to kill 07 instantly and take back the Echo.

Unexpectedly, 07 shoved Xiangxiang, who was in his arms, towards Huo Jingmo.

Huo Jingmo quickly stopped what he was doing and looked at 07 with a puzzled expression.

He deftly sheathed his knife, eagerly pulling Xiangxiang back into his arms, and asked 07, "What do you mean by this?"

07 pointed at Xiangxiang and said, "She wants to stay by your side."

Huo Jingmo looked down, though he seemed listless.

But those half-open eyes were like shining pearls. The moment Huo Jingmo held them in his arms, an innocent smile appeared on their tender faces, making them instantly endearing.

Huo Jingmo wanted to touch the sound, but his hands were covered in blood, so he had to give up.

At this moment, Wu Ying noticed that 07 had given Xiangxiang to Huo Jingmo, and her hand movements paused slightly.

Seeing this, Yan Ling wanted to deliver a fatal blow, and Wu Ying's terrifying aura surged instantly.

In an instant, he subdued Yan Ling and the others. Yan Ling spat out a mouthful of blood, fell to the ground, and could not get up.

Wu Ying walked towards 07 and coldly said to Bu Zhou, "Stop playing around."

After Wu Ying reminded him, Bu Zhou realized what 07 had done, and overnight all those people were lying on the ground groaning in pain.

Wu Ying and Bu Zhou walked over.

Seeing something was wrong from a distance, Chi Xiao reacted quickly and ordered to open fire.

They fired at Wu Ying and Bu Zhou simultaneously.

Both of them were riddled with bullets, their hair flying everywhere, yet they didn't fall down.

The two tilted their heads, smiles on their faces, and walked step by step toward Huo Jingmo, blood gushing out of the holes in their bodies.

Huo Jingmo protected Xiangxiang and retreated step by step.

At that moment, he had only one thought: run! He absolutely could not let Xiangxiang fall into their hands!

Huo Jingmo turned around and ran to the side without hesitation. Wu Ying and Bu Zhou were about to chase after him but were stopped by 07.

Wu Ying swiftly severed 07's arm with a single stroke, her eyes utterly cold. 07 trembled with pain.

Wu Ying signaled Bu Zhou to give chase.

07 struggled to stop even one person, let alone two. He could only watch helplessly as Bu Zhou chased after them.

Wu Ying: "Why did you betray me?"

07, with fine beads of sweat on her forehead, said, "I have never been your person. I have always respected Ruan Qian'an."

Wu Ying's eyes grew increasingly cold.
