Thane's back became covered in a cold sweat as he quickly nodded his head.

"I will take you there!

"

"That's better.

" Chi sneered as she poked Thane in the back with the tip of her sword. She may seem to be ruthless, but when it came to her Ryu, she didn't care if she had to wipe out the whole city if it meant rescuing him.

Thane brought Chi all the way to the main gates of the estate when they were stopped by two guards.

"Halt!

"

Thane had no idea what was going on, and he did not dare make a scene with Chi right behind him since he already knew that at any second, she could easily kill him.

"What is going on? Why is the inner defense array activated?

"

"The Young Miss brought a new husband home, and he seems to have escaped. No one but the family members of the Qin family are allowed in. So I am sorry to say this, Young Master Thane, but your girlfriend will nee….

" The guard's words got stuck in his throat as a shiny blade was pressed against his neck.

"Who did you say was his girlfriend?

" Chi asked, pressing her blade hard enough on the guard's neck to make him bleed.

The guard had sweat forming on his brow. Even his knees were shaking as he began to plead to Chi:

"I misspoke just now, please forgive me! I mean, how could Young Master Thane ever get a beautiful girl like you to be his girlfriend? Hahaha! So silly of me! How could I ever think such a thing? I was just joking!

"

The guard's ramblings caused Chi to snort as she turned to the other guard and said:

"Tell your young miss to come out here right the ** now!

"

"This...

" The guard looked at the guard who was being held hostage and then his Young Master. He was unsure of what he should do.

Chi frowned, then looked at Thane.

"Tell him to get that young miss, or this will be you instead of the guard...

" Chi made another sword appear in her other hand and stabbed it into the guard's shoulder, making sure to not hit any vitals. As she plunged the sword into the guard's shoulder, her eyes began to spark with lightning showing just how angry she was.

"Ahhh! Go get the Young Miss! Go get her! Ahhh! Please stop twisting it!

" The guard yelled out. Chi was making sure Thane understood what would happen to him if he did.

The other guard looked at Thane for confirmation, and when he saw Thane nod his head, he quickly ran inside.

Ten minutes later, the guard reached the entrance of the house, covered in sweat from running the entire way. As soon as he burst through the doors, he saw his young miss ordering some of the other guards around.

"What do you mean you still haven't found him!? Hurry up and find him this instant! Do you wish to turn the Qin family into a laughing stock!?

"

"Miss!

" The guard yelled out as she stopped in front of her.

"Miss, you need to go to the front gate right away. There is someone there holding Young Master Thane hostage. They said if you did not come, they would cut the Young Masters head off!

"

The guard was actually embellishing the whole situation, but he had no choice in order to get this willful girl to make a move. Emma gritted her teeth in annoyance.

"Useless! What the hell do we pay you for if you can not even handle a single person!? Take me there! Turn off the array! The rest of you spread out through the city and find that man!

"

At this time, Ryu and Clara were still hiding in the garden when Clara noticed the barrier array disappeared.

"Ryu, we can leave now. We need to hurry before they put it back up.

"

"Mmm.

" Ryu nodded his head and quickly contacted Chi.

"Chi, where are you?

"

"Front gate, I called out that cheap slut.

" Chi replied. She wanted nothing more than to kill the woman who tried to touch her Ryu.

"They turned off the array, so I will head over there now. Don't do anything too rash. That girl has a strong hidden guard.

" Ryu warned he did not want Chi getting hurt.

"Don't worry, I will be careful. Plus, I have a bit of collateral.

"Chi replied. She was happy that Ryu was worried about her.

Ryu and Clara quickly hopped the wall to the estate. But because they were on the opposite side to the main entrance they now had to run all the way around. When Clara saw Ryu not running away right away but instead running alongside the wall, Clara became confused.

"Ryu, where are you going?

"

"My wife is at the front gate. I need to go support her. Clara, thanks for all the help. I will stop by your Vaughan family when I have the chance.

" Ryu said, giving a wave goodbye before running off.

Clara turned to look in the direction Ryu was running and bit her lip. She wanted to follow him, but she was not as fast as Ryu and did not want to cause him to be caught because of her. She gazed in the direction Ryu left for a few seconds before continuing to run away from the estate:

"Let's hope we meet again...

"

After speaking with Ryu, Chi threw the guard to the side and walked over to Thane.

"You will not move from here. If you do, I will kill you, okay?

"

Thane almost peed himself when he heard Chi's words. He wondered why, of all nights, did he have to hit on the crazy girl who would kill anyone for saying the slightest thing wrong. Not only was she crazy, but her cultivation was also very strong.

"I-I won't move! So please don't hurt me...

"

"Mmm… Good boy.

" Chi said with a smile while patting her shoulder with her sword. When she heard a commotion coming from the gate, she turned to see the gate open, and a young girl walking out with a few guards walking behind her.
