Chapter 2552 This Is For Lu Zhi, We're Even

At the critical moment, under the cover of the thick smoke, they did not notice the girl had already approached them nimbly.

Qiao Nian kicked a person down.

"A sneak attack!" another person shouted.

Qiao Nian hit the back of his neck with a hand knife, causing the tall man to faint.

However, his warning was timely. Shadow and the remaining people from the hidden families noticed the commotion beside Lu Zhi.

Shadow immediately chased after her. "Stop her!"

Lu Zhi was their only trump card.

He could not be lost!

However, Qiao Nian's arrangement was better.

Jian Jin and Tian Chen's men had already arrived.

She lowered her head and asked the man whose hands and feet were tied, "Are you alright?"

Lu Zhi's face was pale as he looked at her and smiled. "I'm not dead."

Qiao Nian took out a small dagger and cut the rope around his wrist. Then, she sized him up and nodded. "As long as you're not dead."

Lu Zhi was speechless.

Time was of the essence.

Qiao Nian did not have time to tell him much. The people from the reclusive families were about to reach them.

She instructed Tian Chen's men decisively, "Take him away. I'll cover the retreat."

"Yes."

They were the people she met the other day when she went to the private room to meet Jian Jin.

These people had received orders from Jian Jin to listen to Qiao Nian's orders. Coupled with the fact that they learned of Qiao Nian's identity, none of them spoke nonsense and only obeyed the orders.

According to the route Qiao Nian gave them previously, everyone had a clear division of labor. Someone was still throwing smoke grenades to create chaos.

Someone else swiftly carried Lu Zhi and left.

Lu Zhi gritted his teeth and looked at the girl's cold back in the crowd.

He said, "Put me down."

However, the person carrying him did not hear him. He quickly left with Lu Zhi on his back.

Lu Zhi grabbed his numb legs tightly. This was the first time in his life he hated being a cripple!

Qiao Nian watched as Lu Zhi was taken away by Jian Jin's men. She turned to look at the people from the reclusive families who had already dealt with the pedestrians and were rushing towards her.

She put away her dagger and methodically took out the portable pistol and magazine from the bag Jian Jin's people had given her.

She looked up again with cold eyes. Narrowing her eyes, she raised the gun at the man in black.

Someone saw it. "Gun!"

Shadow immediately noticed the girl's black gun was aimed in his direction. Well-trained, Shadow immediately somersaulted to avoid it.

However, a crisp gunshot sounded.

Sparks flew from Qiao Nian's gun. The bullet accurately hit the man's left shoulder, causing a blood-colored flower to bloom.

"Ouch!" Shadow rolled to the ground in pain and subconsciously covered his left shoulder.

A pool of blood soon formed on the ground.

Qiao Nian lowered the gun and licked her lips. She raised her eyebrows and looked at him with a strong aura. "This is for Lu Zhi. We're even."

The air was inexplicably hot.

As if gunpowder was about to explode.

The people from the reclusive families were angered by her arrogant behavior. All of them wished they could tear her into pieces.

Shadow did not expect Qiao Nian to shoot him.

She must have guessed his identity.

But she really dared to shoot him to avenge Lu Zhi!

This was equivalent to declaring war on the reclusive families!

The air was filled with the smell of gunpowder. The people from the reclusive families looked at Qiao Nian sharply and coldly…
