When the woman lashed out with the horsewhip in her hand, Huang Xiao could clearly feel its razor-sharp force. That force was plainly like Sword Qi, something a person could produce at will only once their swordsmanship had reached a certain level, unleashing force akin to Sword Qi regardless of the weapon they used.
For an expert like her, even barehanded, the force from her fingers was probably as sharp as Sword Qi.
The instant deaths of those men sent a chill through the surrounding Jianghu crowd. They finally realized that the woman before them was absolutely not someone to provoke.
Lecher Chen and his group were no weaklings here, yet in a single instant, without even a chance to resist, they had been wiped out to the last man. The woman's strength left the crowd somewhat terrified.
Quite a few who had previously harbored designs on the woman retreated several steps in fear, while some farther away quietly fled.
The woman swept her gaze over the surrounding Jianghu crowd. When her eyes passed over one man, he shuddered and hurriedly pointed toward Qinyang City, looking slightly nervous. "Qinyang City is that way. It isn't far."
Only after speaking did he notice that her gaze had quickly moved away from him, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.
The woman said nothing and made no further attacks, merely letting her horse walk slowly toward the river.
Huang Xiao's brow twitched slightly, for she was heading straight toward him.
Huang Xiao stood and walked to one side, preparing to leave. This was no place to linger; it would be better to leave Chaotic Province as soon as possible.
Huang Xiao had no wish to concern himself with who this woman was, nor did he want to provoke her.
