Chapter 46: Targeted

Now, those who had placed empty bets today could no longer sit still.

Liu Chuxue did not refuse: "I'll keep one for myself; you choose the rest."

She had already decided that further ahead there were several hidden spots where she intended to lure some fish and try to store them in the fresh water of her space, not only to enrich the space but also to make them available for use at any time in the future.

Not long after, several fish were traded away.

It wasn't that no one envied or was jealous, but what could be done when someone had such good luck?

Yet none of them noticed that not far away, several people had been staring at this spot.

Liu Chuxue had not noticed at first, but when she lowered her head to pack things up, her peripheral vision happened to catch sight of those few people.

Her heart gave a sudden thump; had she been targeted?

However, thinking of her immense strength and spiritual power, she did not lose her composure.

After putting away the fishing gear she had obtained, she politely greeted the people, picked up the bucket she had brought, and prepared to leave.

The eldest Xiao, who had traded with her earliest, asked with a smile: "Girl, when will you come again?"

Liu Chuxue waved her hand and said: "That's hard to say; I'll come when I have time."

Having finished speaking, she smiled, nodded at him, and left without looking back.

While moving forward, she did not forget to use the spiritual power obtained from the space jade plaque to observe those few people not far away.

Just as she had guessed, she had been targeted; it seemed she had been too conspicuous today.

She felt somewhat displeased; if these people kept following her, how could she store fish in her space?

When she turned a corner, those few people, perhaps growing impatient with following, directly jumped over her and blocked the way ahead: "Daring to act recklessly on our brothers' turf, your guts are quite large, aren't they?"

Liu Chuxue, whose previous life's job required it, had specifically hired a private instructor for self-defense, and with her current physical strength, she was not the least bit panicked: "Who are you?"

"Yo, this girl actually doesn't even know who we are?"

The speaker, full of rogue energy, reached out as if to touch Liu Chuxue's face.

How could Liu Chuxue let him succeed? She directly placed the bucket in front of her: "What do you want to do?"

That person turned around with a rogue grin, looking at the few people behind him: "Brothers, she's asking what I want to do?"

Everyone behind him burst into laughter, and some even whistled.

That person turned back, raised his hand again, and said: "Got so many votes, and you think you can just leave like this?

Brother, I'll tell you right now what we want to do."

But the moment he raised his hand, Liu Chuxue kicked him in the stomach; without exaggeration, he was kicked flying.

Moreover, the force was so great that it sent the person standing behind him flying as well, terrifying the few people standing on either side of the one being carried away.

Those two flew straight out at least five or six meters before stopping.

Liu Chuxue did not expect that just a casual kick would send a person flying; she couldn't help but look down at her own foot: Good heavens, what kind of effect would it have if she used her full strength?

This kick not only stunned those few hooligans but also shocked the several elders who had sensed something was wrong and rushed over to help.

Elder Xiao was the first to react, his face filled with joy as he said: "This is truly a meal granted by heaven; she is born to be a soldier."

When Elder Guo saw a certain person standing among those people, his face instantly turned iron-green; just as he was about to step forward to resolve the situation, he was stopped by Elder Xiao: "Watch how she handles it."

Liu Chuxue put down the things in her hands and stretched her wrists: "Just now you said this area was your turf and called yourselves 'grandpas', didn't you?"

The few who were still standing there were stunned; seeing her say this, they quickly stepped back a few paces: "Don't do anything rash."
