Chapter 296: Chapter 296: Counterkill

Lu Xiaoxiao stood against the wall, warily watching Xu Ke while trying to control her breathing as much as possible, making sure not to show any signs of fatigue. "So, what do you think? Would you consider my suggestion? I’m a person who values honesty. As long as you let me go today, I am confident I can persuade my master not to target you anymore," Lu Xiaoxiao said in a coaxing voice.

"Your master killed my whole family. Even if he doesn’t come for me, I’ll seek him out one day," Xu Ke replied coldly, his face as icy as his gaze at Lu Xiaoxiao, as if looking at a dead person.

"They’re not dead. I can have my master release them," Lu Xiaoxiao shouted loudly, still watching Xu Ke vigilantly to prevent any sudden attacks.

Upon hearing the shocking news that his relatives were still alive, Xu Ke’s eyes displayed intense emotions, a flicker of delight and hope deep in his heart. But when he remembered who was speaking, the flames in his heart were extinguished significantly, leaving only a tiny spark.

"Hmph." Xu Ke snorted coldly, attacking once more. This time, his assault was even more fierce, and Lu Xiaoxiao shed her previous weak image, confronting Xu Ke with a fierce intensity.

She fought with all her might, with each move deadlier than the last. A high-quality wooden table corner was kicked off by Lu Xiaoxiao, and the flying wood chips sparkled under the sunlight.

Lu Xiaoxiao aimed a kick at Xu Ke’s neck, her long, slender legs taut with smooth lines, accompanied by the sound of the wind reaching Xu Ke’s ear.

Xu Ke’s eyes were emotionless, resembling a robot. He easily caught Lu Xiaoxiao’s thunderous strike with his hands. Xu Ke’s lips curled without emotion, exerting force to dislocate Lu Xiaoxiao’s ankle while his hands snaked up to her knee, displacing the bones with a simple grasp, causing a visible protrusion.

Lu Xiaoxiao, who had been flushed with exercise, lost all color in her cheeks, and sweat dripped from her face, soaking into her clothes and leaving a stain.
