Chapter 88 Challenging the Enemy
"Miss, this isn't the way back to the Prime Minister's residence, is it?" Qinghe asked curiously. This road doesn't lead to the Prime Minister's residence, and it's already dark. What is Miss going to do at this time?
"By the way, Qinghe, I have something to do! You go back to the Prime Minister's residence first!" Yun Juan could only send Qinghe back first, making sure that the other party wouldn't hold her back!
"Miss...it's so late...you still have to go out! I...I'm really worried!" Qinghe looked at the sky getting darker and darker, and there were hardly any pedestrians on the street. She was really worried about her young lady all alone!
But Yun Juan seemed not to hear Qing He's words and kept urging her to go home: "It's alright. There's the Imperial City Guard in the capital. What could possibly happen to your young lady? Just the title of future Regent's Consort is enough to deter many people from making a move!"
Yun Juan winked at Qing He, looking quite mischievous!
Upon hearing her young mistress's words, Qinghe thought about it for a moment and realized that it was indeed true. With the Imperial City Guard in front and the Regent's Consort behind, who would dare to mess with her young mistress unless they were tired of living!
Qinghe was relieved and happily returned to the Prime Minister's residence via another route!
The people following behind were a bit confused!
"Hey... I mean... why did she send the maid home beforehand?"
"Why do you care so much? Isn't it enough that this little girl is here? Besides, Miss was talking about her, not her maid!"
The person who asked the question felt that what was said made some sense. He pondered the meaning of these words in his heart and couldn't help but nod in agreement.
Just then, they followed Yun Juan into a narrow alley.
The alleyway was filled with an old-fashioned atmosphere, with mottled walls and an uneven ground.
Yun Juan suddenly stopped, turned around, and shouted loudly to the people behind her, "You've been following me for so long, aren't you going to show yourselves? If you keep going like this, I'm going home soon!"
Her voice was clear and firm, echoing in the alley with an unquestionable authority.
The people following behind looked at each other, their faces showing astonishment.
Clearly, none of them expected that Yun Quan had already discovered them!
This surprised and confused them greatly.
They thought they had hidden themselves well, but now that they had been discovered, they had a new understanding of Yun Juan and were wary of her.
Some people began to wonder how Yun Quan had detected their presence. Did he possess keen insight or some special ability?
These questions lingered in their minds, making them even more wary of Yun Juan's strength and methods.
At the same time, some people began to worry about their own safety.
Now that Yun Juan has discovered them, what will happen next?
Will she take action against them?
Various doubts and worries spread in everyone's minds, making the atmosphere increasingly tense.
However, there were a few who were still clear-headed. Now that they had been discovered, there was no need for them to hide anymore!
Anyway, she's just a little girl, what waves can she make!
One of them took a few steps forward, a faint smile on his face, a hint of curiosity flashing in his eyes, as he looked Yun Quan up and down.
His voice carried a hint of mockery as he slowly spoke, "Little girl, you've got some guts. But how did you find us?"
After saying that, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, as if he had developed a strong interest in Yun Quan.
Yun Juan slightly raised her chin, gave a soft snort, put her hands on her hips, her eyes filled with a hint of provocation and smugness, and said with a slight upturn of her lips, "With your meager tracking skills, you think you can fool my eyes? You really underestimate me! Let me tell you, I have special abilities!"
Her tone was full of confidence, as if she had absolute certainty about her abilities.
Upon hearing this, the others exchanged smiles, their eyes revealing disdain and mockery.
They thought to themselves, "This little girl is really arrogant! How dare she say such things? What makes her think she's so great?"
Some people even chuckled, seemingly thinking that Yun Juan was just bluffing.
After all, they thought Yun Juan was just a weak woman, how could she possibly stand up against so many of them?
However, Yun Juan did not care about the reactions of these people. She stood there calmly, her eyes firm and confident.
She knew that these people were already dead from the moment they appeared, and she had no interest in arguing with dead people.
"Enough with the nonsense! Since you're so arrogant, then let us show you what we're made of!" The other man's face darkened, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes, and his voice boomed through the air like thunder.
As he finished speaking, a powerful aura emanated from him, like a ferocious beast poised to pounce on its prey.
The surrounding air seemed to become heavy because of his imposing presence, making people feel a sense of oppression.
At the same time, the weapon in his hand gleamed coldly, seemingly foreshadowing a fierce battle about to unfold.
Yun Juan's lips curled slightly, a sly glint flashing in her eyes, before she let out a long, feigned sigh of regret: "Sigh~ I was thinking of giving you all a chance, but now it seems..."
As she spoke, she shook her head and sighed, as if she were feeling sorry for the other person.
However, at that moment, she suddenly changed her tone and became serious: "Since you are so rude, then don't blame me for being impolite!"
Before she finished speaking, she suddenly took a step forward, clenched her fists, and assumed a stance ready to launch an attack.
At the same time, a sharp aura emanated from her, like a ferocious beast, making people dare not provoke her easily.
Suddenly, she had a wooden stick in her hand. The stick looked ordinary, but when she held it, it seemed to come alive.
She waved her arms seemingly casually, but there was a hidden meaning behind it.
Each swing carries a unique rhythm, making people turn their heads in surprise.
As she moved, the wooden stick traced arcs in the air, forming one amazing pattern after another.
These patterns lingered in the air for a moment before disappearing without a trace, but their effects were real—for a moment, there was even a faint airflow in the air!
This airflow was initially very weak and almost imperceptible.
But as she continued to wave the stick, the airflow gradually intensified, and a whirlwind began to form.
The whirlwind swirled around her, swirling up fallen leaves and dust, creating a spectacular sight.
Seeing this, everyone took a step back, thinking to themselves: Could this little girl really have some extraordinary talent?
