Chapter 2514

Baili Xia caught a glimpse of the scene, and felt an overwhelming heartache.

Desperately, she swung a blade at her opponent and immediately hurried towards Wu Ming.

But she had only taken two steps when the man in black blocked her again.

The man in black lowered his eyes, looking at Wu Ming on the ground, and smirked.

He thought Wu Ming was formidable, but now saw he was already so weak.

Yet even lying on the ground, the cold expression in Wu Ming’s eyes hadn’t changed.

This irritated him greatly.

A flash of cruelty showed in his eyes, and he kicked towards Wu Ming’s head.

“Wu Ming!”

Baili Xia yelled out as she witnessed the scene.

She felt despair; how could Wu Ming possibly dodge in his current state?

The man in black seemed confident that with this kick, this annoying fellow would likely be finished.

But miracles appear under extreme circumstances; human potential is only triggered at its limits.

Just as the foot was about to touch Wu Ming’s head, Wu Ming suddenly flipped on the ground, reaching for his calf.

When he turned back, a dagger thrust towards the black-clad man’s abdomen.

It all happened in an instant, Wu Ming moved so quickly that Baili Xia couldn’t see what had transpired.

The man in black hadn’t expected Wu Ming to move so swiftly, to pull a dagger from his leg and kill him.

No further sound escaped him; his eyes widened, and he fell to the ground.

The other man in black was stunned, not expecting his leader to be killed in an instant.

He hesitated, and when he responded, he was about to shout for reinforcements: “Help…”

But Wu Ming somehow managed it, the dagger was already in the man’s throat, and his voice stopped abruptly.

Baili Xia was completely shocked by the scene before her, unable to believe that injured Wu Ming had handled both men.

“Wu Ming.” She came to her senses and immediately ran towards Wu Ming.

Wu Ming was holding his wound, struggling to stand.

Baili Xia quickly reached to support him, feeling the dampness beneath her hands.

Even in the dim cave, she could clearly smell the blood.

How much blood had he lost, how had he persevered?

“Wu Ming, you….” Baili Xia’s nose tingled, her emotions unbearably heavy.

She didn’t know what to say, promising to protect Wu Ming, yet in the end, he protected her.

Wu Ming lowered his eyes to meet hers, and said softly, “I’m fine, help me sit down.”

He smirked weakly, “After some rest, I’ll be able to kill a few more.”

Wu Ming coughed lightly, his voice now completely hoarse.

He raised his hand, wanting to touch the beautiful face before him.

But midway, he let it drop.

Such a pure and lovely girl, how could he stain her with his bloodied hands?

The tears in Baili Xia’s eyes finally fell; she turned her head, not wanting Wu Ming to see her fragile side.

She secretly wiped away her tears before helping him back to sit behind the stone wall corner.

“Wu Ming, rest a while, don’t talk too much.”

Wu Ming nodded, giving her a deep glance, his dark eyes closing once more.

If he just had a little more time, a bit more strength restored.

Perhaps today really could become miraculous, perhaps they could truly escape.

He had yet to reclaim his girl; the story wasn’t over yet!

He wouldn’t fall, absolutely not.

Even if he had to fall, at least, his girl would be safe and secure!
