Chapter 1042 - 1042 336 Barbarians
Chapter 1042: Chapter 336: Barbarians Chapter 1042: Chapter 336: Barbarians It was Wang Sao who had deceived her of her money, yet the petty officials at the city hall said it was because she was foolish.
It was also Wang Sao who had tricked her into going to Tongyi Square, and all she did was give that love-struck boss a lesson, only to be wanted throughout the city.
Having never suffered such an injustice, Xu Qingyue wanted to argue with those hunting her, only to be met with force of arms.
This so-called city of freedom, this dreamland of gold, suddenly became incomprehensible to her.
Now penniless in Chaochang, without any relatives, and her wanted posters plastered all over the city, to her the city guard seemed like nothing.
But she keenly felt the intensity of the manhunt increasing. Initially, it was but a few squads of Transcendent rank, but after her first breakaway, two warriors of unity of spirit and intent with more than a dozen well-trained squads took up the pursuit; and soon after, over a hundred squads were searching through the streets and alleys.
These guards patrolled back and forth in the central district, and several times Xu Qingyue almost got caught. Had it not been for her ability to blend into the shadows with Shadow Sword Intent, she might have been surrounded already.
Even with Shadow Sword Intent, her scope of movement was becoming increasingly limited, as if the enemy could vaguely sense her location and was continuously compressing her space to maneuver.
