Ding Yuejun watched anxiously from the side as her daughter fought alone against two people, pacing in circles.
But she couldn’t offer any help, as the potion was shattered earlier, leaving her with no chance for a sneak attack.
Yiyi looked at the elder in front of her, somewhat astonished. The elder’s Kung Fu was superior to the man in black, and she was no match for him.
At this thought, her heart gradually sank.
In that instant, Elder Qi had already approached Yiyi, and with a swift, precise punch, he hit her stomach, sending her flying.
"Bang..."
Yiyi’s whole body crashed into the wall behind her. She felt a burning pain in her back, and she had no strength to get up, but she couldn’t fall.
If she fell, what would happen to her mother?
At this thought, Yiyi’s gaze became increasingly fierce. These people repeatedly tried to harm her mother. They would never let them go. Today, it was either them or her.
"Yiyi..."
Seeing her daughter being knocked away, Ding Yuejun shouted hoarsely, then intended to rush forward.
"Mom, stand still and don’t move."
Yiyi quickly stopped her, fearing that she wouldn’t be able to protect her mother later.
No matter how anxious Ding Yuejun was, she did not dare to move, afraid of becoming a burden to her daughter.
Yiyi took a deep breath, slowly stood up, and looked coldly at Elder Qi and Lao Liu in front of her, with a determined look of desperation.
On the other side, Elder Qi was a bit surprised.
The young girl in front of him looked delicate, but unexpectedly difficult to deal with in an actual fight. Both he and Lao Liu had teamed up, but they still couldn’t take her down immediately, which was beyond his expectation.
"Lao Liu, there’s no time. Let’s end this quickly. If we drag this out any longer, more people might arrive."
Lao Liu also understood this reasoning and shouted to the elder, "Elder Qi, you can’t hold back anymore. This little girl is not simple. Let’s strike quickly." At the end, he gave Elder Qi a signal, and the two attacked in unison.
Yiyi recalled what Guo Ming had taught her.
The body aligns with the heart, the heart aligns with intention, intention aligns with energy, energy aligns with strength, the back aligns with the shoulders, the shoulders align with the elbows, the elbows align with the hands, the hands align with the feet.
At that time, she didn’t understand some aspects, always feeling she couldn’t find her energy, but now, at this critical moment, she suddenly gained insight and moved instinctively. She struck with a fierce palm towards the closest man in black.
That man in black had not paid much attention earlier.
After all, having fought for some time, he roughly knew Yiyi’s capabilities, a match for him. But upon feeling this palm strike, he was shocked. The girl’s palm technique had improved from before. If he confronted her head-on, he would surely be injured.
But at this moment, there was no retreat.
Lao Liu was also ruthless. Seeing that he couldn’t avoid it, he chose to take Yiyi’s palm directly. However, the strike was more powerful than he expected, but he couldn’t care about much else. Taking advantage of Yiyi’s strike, he punched her shoulder.
With Lao Liu’s move, Elder Qi took the opportunity to sweep Yiyi to the ground with a full-force kick. He thought she surely couldn’t get up after that.
Yiyi felt a metallic taste in her mouth.
"Pfft..."
She spat out a mouthful of blood and weakly lowered her head. At this moment, her insides were burning with pain. Although she had injured one of them in their attack, she herself had no energy left to fight back.
"Yiyi..."
Ding Yuejun screamed from her soul and immediately rushed to her daughter’s side, her face full of heartache and hatred.
Why...
She had always been kind and never done anything wrong, yet here she was, unable to protect her daughter, helplessly watching Yiyi get injured before her eyes.
Elder Qi couldn’t help but remark, "Heh... this young girl is indeed remarkable."
He had seen the power of Yiyi’s palm strike earlier, and now Lao Liu lay in disarray on the ground, proving that the young girl had comprehended a deeper meaning of the palm technique in that instant, allowing her to knock down Lao Liu. If it had been just him dealing with her today, he wasn’t sure he could have subdued her.
At this point, the injured Lao Liu struggled to say, "Cough... cough... Elder Qi, let’s finish the job."
He originally minded the Yin sect, but if they didn’t deal with these people now, there would be endless troubles.
Elder Qi naturally understood Lao Liu’s intention. Though regretful about the young girl’s talent at such a young age, the task had to be completed.
Ding Yuejun heard their conversation clearly. She desperately shielded her daughter, determined to protect Yiyi with whatever strength she had.
"Cough cough..."
Yiyi coughed up blood, gently pushed her mother aside, and then stood up. Staring fiercely at the two in front of her, she said, "You won’t succeed."
Elder Qi knew they could not delay any longer, so he struck decisively with a fierce palm.
Ding Yuejun instinctively shielded Yiyi.
Yiyi wouldn’t let her mother be in danger. She tried to push her hard, but unexpectedly, with all her strength, she couldn’t move her. It was unclear whether she had no strength left or if her mother’s strength had suddenly increased. Seeing she couldn’t move her, Yiyi was genuinely anxious, "Mom, step aside."
"No, I won’t."
But, Elder Qi wouldn’t stop because of this.
As his hand was about to land, footsteps sounded suddenly from the alley entrance.
"Hey... what are you doing?"
However, upon seeing Elder Qi not only not stopping but becoming more aggressive, the newcomer drew a pistol and fired.
Elder Qi’s expression tensed. He had not anticipated that the arriving people would carry guns, suggesting they weren’t ordinary people.
"Bang... bang..."
One of the newcomers fired several shots at Elder Qi.
However, Elder Qi reacted quickly, avoiding the shots. Weighing the situation, he picked up Lao Liu and fled in another direction.
At this moment, Ding Yuejun couldn’t hold back and began to cry. She turned and hugged Yiyi, saying, "Yiyi, it’s over, it’s over."
But Yiyi didn’t relax at all. Her gaze was steady as she looked at the newcomers.
A handsome man walked over confidently. His features were outstanding. Although he seemed a bit older, his charm hadn’t waned, suggesting he must have been very attractive in his youth. Behind him followed a team of uniformed personnel, and the shooter was now walking on the man’s left side.
