The men were caught off-guard as Long Chen attacked them. They hadn't expected to be attacked, so they didn't even take any precaution. They could only watch as the bright arc of light came flying to cut them in half.
Their half bodies dropped to the ground. Their eyes remained open even after they had died.
"You talk too much," Long Chen muttered as he sighed while keeping the sword back in his storage ring.
Dealing with these men only took him a second. Now that he was finished and free, he glanced back to see if the woman was still running.
Glancing back, he realized that she was still running. Probably she didn't realize that the men chasing after her were already dead. In any case, he didn't need to stop her either. She herself told him to stay out of it. So he wasn't going to stop her. In any case, she was probably going to turn back soon.
Instead of waiting for her, he started walking away. He had his own thing to do.
