Chapter 94: Chapter 94: Are you seeking death? Do you know that?_1

An Jing’s eyes suddenly turned cold, a killing intent flaring in their depths. She whirled around with incredible speed, grabbing and squeezing Mrs. Xiao Chen’s wrist that held the wooden stick.

”Ah—,” Mrs. Xiao Chen cried out in agony, as if her wristbone had been crushed. Her fingers opened involuntarily, and the stick she was holding fell to the ground.

But An Jing didn’t even glance at the stick. Her other hand shot out and seized Mrs. Xiao Chen’s throat, squeezing tighter and tighter. Her voice, cold as a ghost, ”Old hag, you dare to lay a hand on my man. You’re looking for death, do you understand?”

”Mmm-mmm-mmm—,” with her throat being choked and the pressure increasing, Mrs. Xiao Chen could hardly breathe. Her face turned a deep red from the struggle to survive, and she was unable to utter a single word.

The onlookers outside the courtyard were startled to see An Jing choking Mrs. Xiao Chen with one hand. Seeing Mrs. Xiao Chen starting to roll her eyes back, looking like she was about to expire, they realized An Jing was truly ruthless, and they were scared out of their wits.

Someone trembled, ”An... An... An Jing, let’s talk this out, you... you... quickly let go of Mrs. Chen!”

An Jing didn’t hear the person’s words. All her concentration was on Mrs. Xiao Chen. She was determined to kill her, to kill the person who wanted to kill her man. Only then would her man be safe, so the hand that clutched Mrs. Xiao Chen’s throat tightened even more.

Mrs. Xiao Chen found it even more impossible to breathe, her eyes rolling back fiercer than before, feeling death drawing nearer and nearer. Despite the fear in her heart, she lacked the strength even to struggle.

Seeing An Jing like a death god claiming Mrs. Xiao Chen’s life, everyone was too scared to step in and save her.

Xiao Changyi had been watching calmly at the side. At this moment, he let out a soft sigh, raised a hand, and gently rested it on An Jing’s left shoulder, whispering, ”Jing Er.”

An Jing’s body tensed suddenly, then panic flickered through her eyes, and she quickly withdrew her hand from Mrs. Xiao Chen’s neck, simultaneously delivering a kick.

Mrs. Xiao Chen, sapped of all strength from being choked, went limp and, with that kick from An Jing, fell backward onto the ground. She felt pain but was too focused on gasping for air, like a fish dying of thirst finally encountering water.

But An Jing wasn’t finished. She stepped on Mrs. Xiao Chen, squatting down slowly, and grabbed her jaw, forcing the gasping Mrs. Xiao Chen to look her in the eye.

”If there’s a next time, I will kill you for sure,” An Jing’s eyes were fierce, her tone icy.

Mrs. Xiao Chen, having just returned from the Gate of Hell, felt a bone-deep fear of An Jing. She knew An Jing had truly intended to kill her, for real, not feigning at all, having experienced it firsthand. Not to mention there being no next time, she would never dare show her face in front of An Jing, this deathly woman, again.

This woman was truly terrifying!

It was so close, just a hair’s breadth away, and she would have been choked to death by her!

Ignoring Mrs. Xiao Chen’s face filled with horror, An Jing stood up straight, withdrew her foot from on top of Mrs. Xiao Chen, and coldly spat out a single word, ”Scram.”

Mrs. Xiao Chen immediately scrambled to get away, but her legs were still weak; she couldn’t walk, much less run. She virtually tumbled and crawled out of the courtyard, surprisingly fast.

Once out of the courtyard, someone helped Mrs. Xiao Chen to her feet.

One person helping wasn’t enough, it took two people to get the utterly weak-legged Mrs. Xiao Chen standing.
