Chapter 2093

The two exchanged a glance, and the short man signaled to the woman.

The woman understood, her fingers moved slightly, pressing the mechanism on the handle of the retractable baton.

Once everything was in place, she exchanged another look with the short man.

The two attacked simultaneously from left and right.

The knife and retractable baton worked perfectly in tandem, making Mu Xiaojiu unable to find a way to counterattack for a moment.

He was unarmed and could only continuously dodge, occasionally punching when he saw an opening.

Suddenly, his head spun, and the scene before his eyes swayed.

Mu Xiaojiu cursed quietly, realizing that these people were resorting to such despicable tactics.

Seeing his dodging was clearly not as agile as before, the two knew they had succeeded.

The weapons in their hands swung faster, aiming for a swift end.

Although this place is remote, there’s no guarantee nobody will pass by, and it’d be bad if discovered.

The knife in the short man’s hand was extremely sharp, its dark blade chilling.

Mu Xiaojiu knew that if this continued, he would collapse for sure.

There was no choice but to fight with full force.

Seeing the woman’s baton crashing down again, and the knife behind him stabbing diagonally towards his lower back.

Mu Xiaojiu sidestepped, raised his left hand, the blade brushed over his skin at his waist.

He felt a slight pain at his waist, but it wasn’t serious.

His left hand had already seized the woman’s wrist, she was startled and tried to retreat, but couldn’t escape.

Mu Xiaojiu’s fist slammed heavily into the woman’s chest.

The woman staggered back three steps, spat out a mouthful of blood.

Clutching her chest, she tried to charge again.

Unexpectedly, after running two steps, she suddenly fell to the ground.

In the blink of an eye, Mu Xiaojiu had taken down another person, making the short man even more panicked.

With only himself left, it’d be difficult to wait until the poison took effect.

In desperation, his movements became faster.

The punch Mu Xiaojiu threw earlier was already his last burst of strength, now his head was dizzy.

He could only rely on conditioned combat reflexes to avoid the opponent’s knife.

The scenery before him swayed even more violently, he could only see a blurry shadow moving in front of him.

Suddenly, his gaze turned cold, and he threw one last heavy punch.

The man’s wailing sounded, but Mu Xiaojiu could no longer hear it clearly.

The roar of an engine approached from afar, clear on this quiet winding road.

Mu Xiaojiu could no longer hold on, his head grew heavier.

Finally, he fell.

“Uncle, uncle, are you okay…”

Mu Xiaojiu couldn’t see who was in front of him, the voice sounded very far away.

“Return… to Sihai Residence.”

…

After the meeting, when returning to Sihai Residence, Mu Xiaoyao’s car was parked outside the yard.

Brother is back!

Baili Xia rejoiced and quickened her pace.

When she entered the yard, she saw Ye Hua darting out of the hall.

He seemed flustered, holding a bottle in his hand, his expression very strange.

“Ye Hua.” Baili Xia called.

Ye Hua was startled, seeing it was Baili Xia, he walked over quickly.

Coming closer, Baili Xia saw his frighteningly cold face, eyes red.

In his hand was the Hundred Poison Pill she had given Wu Ming earlier.

Her heart tightened with concern, “What’s wrong?”

She feared, could it be something happened to Xiaoxiao.

“Mr. Xiaojiu is in trouble.”

“What?” Baili Xia exclaimed.

“He’s in the medical room now, Mr. Nangong is treating him.”
