Chapter 481: The Most Dangerous Moment (5)
Han Jing almost instantly recognized that this woman was none other than the legendary snake-hearted mother of Su Yu, Xia Ji.
Her smile was gentle, so much so that it was really hard to see even a hint of malice in her demeanor. Han Jing truly couldn’t imagine how such a woman could bear to treat her own son so harshly.
There’s a saying that one’s appearance reflects their heart, but this world is indeed full of people whose insides and outsides don’t match.
Lan Ling instinctively stepped in front of Han Jing.
But before Lan Ling could speak, Xia Ji laughed aloud first, "What are you nervous about? I’m not going to eat you! You’re quite quick, saving me a trip!"
Lan Ling looked at Xia Ji incredulously. What did she mean? Could it be that she had planned to capture Han Jing all along?
"You old witch, what exactly do you want?" Lan Ling blocked Xia Ji, fearing she might actually make a move. While others have their bottom lines, Xia Ji, this old witch, seemed to have none!
So Lan Ling was really worried that she might harm Han Jing!
"Me? I’m just here to watch a dramatic farewell with nothing else to do. I told you, don’t be nervous. Why would I lay a finger on my dear daughter-in-law? After all, she has added to the lineage of our Xia Clan. She’s a hero; I couldn’t be happier!" Xia Ji’s smile was sincere, as if she were truly delighted.
But this sincere smile made Han Jing feel a chill deep within.
So, there really are mad people in this world.
Just as the rumors said, Xia Ji was indeed a genuine madwoman.
Lan Ling whispered to Han Jing, "Don’t fall for her tricks, whatever you do, don’t move!"
He squeezed Han Jing’s hand tightly, and she understood his meaning. No matter what happened, she mustn’t act rashly or reveal any unusual behavior. Under no circumstances should she expose her hidden abilities.
Otherwise, no one would let her go today.
Han Jing gritted her teeth, her heart trembling. She swore this would be the last time in her life she felt so powerless. From this moment onward, she would never again allow herself to fall into such a predicament.
One day, she would make Xia Ji realize where she was wrong!
The battle between Su Yu and Ling Yue was utterly unfair and extremely imbalanced in power. It was incredible that Su Yu managed to fight him for so long even after being seriously injured.
Soon enough, Su Yu showed signs of defeat. Under Ling Yue’s assault, he suffered numerous injuries, his clothes torn in many places. His right shoulder was directly pierced, leaving a fist-sized bloody hole, yet oddly, only a little blood flowed out, revealing clearly the chilling white bones beneath.
For the first time, Han Jing hated her excellent vision, but she neither cried nor moved, showing no expression on her face.
Summer Ji watched from the side. No matter how much it hurt, she could not make a sound at this moment.
Just as Su Yu was about to collapse, a sudden radiance burst from his body, surprising everyone. It drove Ling Yue back hundreds of meters and then enwrapped him in a ball of light.
Then, it swiftly headed towards Han Jing. Before landing on the rock where she stood, a crystal stone was fiercely hurled towards Xia Ji. Xia Ji retreated quickly, and as the crystal stone shattered before her, her face twisted slightly, as if witnessing a scene of intense pain!
