A man in black, whose upper half of his face was covered by a gold mask, was being attacked by more than twenty other men in black with their faces covered by black cloth.

At this moment, Ziyue's inner monologue was: These people are dressed in all black and have their faces covered in broad daylight. Are they afraid that others won't know they are assassins or some kind of shady characters?!

Ziyue noticed that the black-clad man wearing a golden mask, who was being besieged, was not at a disadvantage at all, even though he was fighting against many opponents.

But after a short while, his movements suddenly stopped for a moment, and black blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

This is clearly poisoning.

The group that had been besieging him seized the opportunity to swarm him.

One of them, who was probably the leader, said, "Chi Ling, you know the rules of betraying the organization. It's a pity, today is your death day."

Just as a knife was about to pierce Chi Ling's heart, an unknown hidden weapon pierced through the knife with a "bang." Everyone looked around warily at this unexpected turn of events.

A stunningly beautiful woman, dressed in a moon-white brocade dress, gracefully emerged from the bamboo forest, leaving everyone momentarily dazed.

No one expected that she would be such a beautiful woman who looked so weak and powerless, but they did not underestimate her.

Those in their line of work know that no one should be underestimated, whether they are old, young, or women.

It's a pity that such a beautiful woman is destined to die young today.

She was just unlucky to run into them today; they will never let her leave alive!

A group of men in black exchanged glances and gestured to each other. Two of them then prepared to approach Ziyue.

Before the men in black could make a move, Ziyue struck first, wielding a silenced pistol in each hand and moving swiftly.

"Bang bang bang bang—" A series of sounds of corpses falling to the ground rang out.

In just a few breaths, all the men in black had fallen!

She never understood what those people were thinking before committing murder—they would ramble on, make threats, reminisce about the past, talk about feelings, and discuss their psychological journey.

Since you're going to kill him anyway, just do it cleanly and decisively.

Instead of arguing and wasting time, you end up getting easily defeated.

Don't they ever think that once the person is dead, they can say whatever they want to the corpse? They can chat all night long.

-

The person being besieged seemed to be unable to hold on any longer, and was kneeling on the ground, looking up at Ziyue's direction.

Time seemed to stand still, leaving only that touch of vibrant white.

Even Chi Ling, who is usually cold-blooded and rational and rarely shows any emotion, couldn't help but feel her heart beating faster, as if she could hear her own heartbeat.

He thought he was going to die here today, but he never expected to be rescued.

She was a beautiful girl who didn't look very old!

Like,

Like the sun.

Ziyue put the gun into her spatial storage and walked towards the only person still alive among the pile of corpses.

She was thinking to herself: Luckily, her sleeves were wide enough that she could use them to hide the gun in her spatial storage.

Ziyue looked at the person and mentally called out to 999: "Little Jiu'er, give me an antidote pill from the system shop."

999 immediately responded to its beloved host, "Yes, host. The antidote pill can cure all poisons. It costs 20 points per pill and has been issued."

Ziyue walked up to the person kneeling on the ground and handed him the antidote pill, saying, "An antidote pill, can cure all poisons."

A delicate, slender hand appeared before Chi Ling's eyes, with a brown pill in its palm, making the hand appear even whiter and more delicate.

But he didn't answer, even though he was in excruciating pain at that moment.

"Don't you believe me? This really is an antidote pill that can cure all poisons. I think you've been poisoned. Taking this will definitely make you better."

Ziyue thought he didn't believe her, so she added another explanation!

"No, no, this antidote must be very precious. I can't take your things for nothing. Please, young lady, put it away."

Perhaps due to the pain, the man's voice was low and hoarse, with a slight, rapid panting.

The sound came from his mouth, but Ziyue inexplicably felt... cough... her ears seemed a little itchy.

This person's voice is quite pleasant.

Since she had already saved him, Ziyue grabbed the man's chin with one hand and forcefully shoved the antidote into his mouth with the other.

Products made by the system are always of high quality; the medicine should take effect soon.

Chi Ling's pupils dilated for a moment. When the girl in front of him reached out her hand, he did not resist, nor did he want to resist.

It wasn't until the pill entered my mouth that I realized what was happening.

The pill melted instantly upon entering her mouth, and soon Chi Ling felt the pain in her body lessen considerably until it completely disappeared.

Chi Ling immediately stood up. "You, young lady, we are complete strangers. I don't know how to repay your life-saving grace today, and the antidote pill, I—" Before he could finish speaking, Zi Yue interrupted him.

"If you really want to repay me, then stay by my side and protect me from now on. Besides, you're quite skilled in martial arts, aren't you? You can teach me martial arts."

"But your strength is already above mine, and I'm afraid I'm not up to your kindness."

Chi Ling clenched his fists quietly, his eyelashes drooping slightly as he suppressed the urge to agree. But he had seen everything that had just happened; so many people in the organization looked as vulnerable as newborn babies in front of this girl.

Her amazing hidden weapon was a deadly weapon, unstoppable even by the naked body.

And her movements were so strange that he couldn't even see them clearly. What right did he have to stay by her side and protect her? What qualifications did he have to teach her martial arts?

Ziyue blinked. "Well, I only have the advantage of using hidden weapons and a bit of special movement techniques, but actually, I don't know any martial arts."

She was telling the truth.

She hasn't had time to learn martial arts yet.

She can buy martial arts manuals in the system shop, but because she has teleportation and invisibility abilities, as well as lightning-based powers and a spatial ability, her safety is still quite guaranteed.

So for the first few years, she learned various musical instruments, such as qin (a stringed instrument), chess, calligraphy, painting, and embroidery.

As for martial arts, it was a relatively late addition to her learning plan.

But then, a teacher just comes knocking on your door.

Just now, I saw that the person in front of me was able to fight against many opponents without being at a disadvantage. His martial arts skills must be among the best, right?

She could totally learn from him; that's called "the rational use of talent."

Chi Ling was even more surprised upon hearing this, but upon careful recollection, although the woman's steps were light, they did not seem to indicate that she had cultivated internal energy.

Looking at the expectant gaze in the person's eyes, Chi Ling felt as if his heart skipped a beat.

"it is good."

He used to rack his brains trying to escape that cage, but now he is willing to do anything for the person in front of him.

"Then you will be my martial arts master from now on. Hello, Master. What is your name? My name is Qing Ziyue."

“Chi Ling. You, you don’t need to call me master, you can call me by my name.”

“Oh, Master Chi Ling, you can also call me Zi Yue.”

"Miss Ziyue." He wasn't the kind of person who couldn't adapt, but Ziyue noticed his bright red ear tips!

However, since he was wearing a mask, it was impossible to tell whether he was blushing or not.

"Master Chi Ling, will you still have to wear a mask in your life from now on? Is the mask something you can't take off?"

Ziyue looked curiously at the golden mask on his face.

Chi Ling remained silent for a moment, then slowly reached out a hand and removed the mask from her face.
