章節 155: Standoff: Part 1

The receptionist behind the counter was scared stiff just as the air in the main hall was stilly. Except for the disciple in the guardhouse, she was the only person on duty tonight. After the mantis incident, no one in their right mind would want to mess with the Ironfist Society. But now, what was she seeing?

Xie Qiaoyue swallowed and forced a smile. "What should we do now, teacher?"

The sea hawk was silent for a moment before it shrilled, "Run!" They turned and ran, taking the stunned receptionist with them.

"Hahahaha! Do you really think you can run away from me?" A burst of manic laughter came from behind them.

Suddenly, the raucous guffaw stopped, as even more dangerous energy began to pervade in the air. When Xie Qiaoyue looked back over her shoulder, a chill ran up her spine, causing her to run even quicker. The sea hawk held on to her hair tightly as it was thrown back by the inertia as Xie Qiaoyue scrambled away.
