"Commander Mei, I have long heard of your great name. To have the honor of meeting you today is truly astonishing."
Shen Shaolong spoke unhurriedly, his gaze towards An Mei filled with ardent desire, making no effort to hide his lust.
An Mei's expression instantly turned ice-cold at his gaze, killing intent surging. She spoke in a chilling voice,
"Release her! Then, control your eyes and come with me to the City Lord's mansion to accept judgment! Otherwise, do not think that just because you are the Young Master of the Shen Clan, I will not dare to kill you!"
"Heh!"
Hearing An Mei's threat, Shen Shaolong did not become angry but instead laughed. Such a woman only stirred his excitement further. He instinctively tightened his embrace around Zhang Xiaoduo, then fixed his gaze directly on An Mei and said,
"Commander Mei, you have successfully piqued my interest. I have decided to invite you to our Shen Clan for a visit, to become my woman!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Shaolong made a gesture, and the four bodyguards beside him instantly unleashed their auras and charged towards An Mei.
"Seeking death!!!"
Killing intent flickered in An Mei's eyes. They knew her identity, yet they dared to attack her. They were truly arrogant. Did they truly not fear death?
However, in the next moment, she reined in her thoughts. Facing four opponents at the late Emperor stage, who were as strong as her, she dared not confront them head-on.
"Boom!"
A terrifying aura erupted in the alley as the four bodyguards attacked An Mei simultaneously.
Although An Mei's strength was no longer what it used to be, facing four opponents as strong as herself, she dared not confront them directly.
"Hum!"
An Mei vanished from her original spot, her figure concealed in the shadows of the alley. Her face was pale. She had been careless this time. She had thought that within the Great Qin territory, Shen Shaolong and his group would not dare to attack her once she revealed herself, which was why she had followed them alone.
But she hadn't expected them to be so audacious, not only daring to attack her but also intending to capture her and bring her to the Shen Clan. This was tantamount to forcing a war between Great Qin and their Shen Clan!
"Boom!!!"
At this moment, as An Mei caught her breath, an attack rushed towards her, followed closely by three others.
"Finish this quickly, do not hold back. Be careful of other Great Qin powerhouses rushing to reinforce them!"
One bodyguard roared, his body lunging directly at An Mei.
An Mei inwardly cursed her bad luck. She rapidly dodged, then seized the opportunity to counter-attack. She evaded the first attack and nullified another, but the remaining two were closing in on her, and her four opponents had her escape routes completely blocked.
She knew that her greatest strength lay in concealment and sneak attacks. If she were in a wide-open area with plenty of cover, she was confident she could kill all four of them!
But now, trapped in this extremely narrow alley, her advantages could not be utilized at all.
"I'll risk it!" With this thought, An Mei hardened her heart, enduring an attack head-on, and then lunged directly at one of them, a black dagger appearing in her hand.
The best strategy is to capture the leader first. By eliminating the person blocking her path and then controlling Shen Shaolong, all dangers would be resolved!
"Block her!!!"
The four bodyguards sensed An Mei's intention. The one targeted by An Mei instantly roared, his aura surging. He directly ignited his own energy.
"Die!!!"
The man shouted and hurled a punch at An Mei, and a strong sense of danger enveloped her.
"They're crazy!!!" An Mei was shocked. The opponent was unharmed and clearly had the upper hand, yet they were burning their energy to boost their combat power. They were truly insane!
Despite her shock, An Mei did not hesitate. If they dared to fight desperately, why couldn't she?
"Boom!"
An Mei's speed suddenly increased dramatically as she too ignited her energy.
"Bang!"
With a loud bang, An Mei took a heavy punch from her opponent, and blood immediately spilled from her mouth.
Her opponent rejoiced at this, but then his pupils dilated, his face filled with disbelief.
An Mei, after taking his punch, did not retreat but instead charged forward, enduring the blow. A faint glow flashed in her hand.
Instantly, the dagger in An Mei's hand pierced through her opponent's body!
An exchange of blows, trading injury for injury! In terms of ruthlessness, the people of the Shen Clan were far inferior to An Mei.
After all, An Mei was formerly the commander of the Dragon King Hall's covert operations, specializing in assassination. To achieve her goals, she understood sacrifice better than anyone!
Trading a severe injury for a chance to control Shen Shaolong was an extremely worthwhile deal for An Mei at this moment.
"Damn it!!! Bitch!!!"
The person An Mei had wounded with her dagger roared in anger. He was furious. As an ancient expert who had experienced countless battles, to be wounded by a descendant woman was an insult!
"Die!!!"
The man roared, intending to counter-attack. But as soon as he made a move, a mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth.
A flicker of confusion flashed in his eyes, followed by a drastic change in his expression. He roared,
"The dagger is poisoned!!!"
"Puff!"
As soon as he spoke, another attack from An Mei arrived, piercing directly through his forehead.
One person, dead!!!
From the moment An Mei broke through the man's defense to his death, only one or two seconds had passed. The other three bodyguards had no time to react. They had just heard their companion warn of the poisoned dagger, and in the next moment, their companion was dead.
"Damn it!!! Quickly, stop her!!!"
"Protect the Young Master!!!"
"Young Master, retreat quickly!!!"
Seeing An Mei charging towards Shen Shaolong, the three panicked. They had no time to mourn their fallen comrade, and they all burned their internal energy, rushing towards An Mei.
If anything happened to Shen Shaolong, all three of them would die!
"Hmph! Too late!"
An Mei sneered inwardly. She was now less than five steps away from Shen Shaolong, who stood there stunned, as if he had not even recovered from the death of one of his subordinates.
As An Mei drew closer to Shen Shaolong, she tightened her grip on the dagger, preparing to control him with a single strike.
However, Shen Shaolong suddenly looked at An Mei, and then, he smiled!
"Not good!!!"
An Mei's heart was struck with immense alarm. By this time, her body was already close to Shen Shaolong, and she had no time to retreat.
Shen Shaolong abruptly threw Zhang Xiaoduo, who was in his arms, towards An Mei, and then, a ball of golden light appeared in his hand.
"Ah!!!"
Zhang Xiaoduo let out a scream. An Mei was also in a hurry and quickly redirected her dagger, grabbing Zhang Xiaoduo and shielding her.
But the next moment, a golden light shot out from Shen Shaolong's hand, hurtling towards An Mei.
At this moment, An Mei had no chance to react and could only watch helplessly as the golden light struck her.
"Boom!!!"
Instantly, An Mei's mind roared, her entire body's energy surged, and her aura became unstable. More importantly, she could no longer control the energy within her body, and her coordination became erratic.
"This is bad!"
An Mei thought, cursing herself inwardly.
At the same time, Shen Shaolong's three subordinates rushed over. They all attacked, instantly sealing An Mei's internal energy.
