Chapter 436 The Boy Who Attacked
Xi Yu lowered her eyes, and with a slight twist of her wrist, she shot the broken arrowhead back in its original direction.
The broken arrow, glowing green, pierced the air and shot towards the person who was hiding in the shadows and launching a sneak attack. The person had a childish face and looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old.
The boy hurriedly dodged, the poisoned arrow grazing his armpit and embedding itself in the tree trunk behind him, narrowly missing him! The boy was still shaken; he hadn't expected that from such a distance, the opponent could shoot an arrow by hand—it was truly terrifying!
Suddenly a breeze blew in front of him, and the boy looked up in surprise. Before he knew it, the expressionless young man opposite him had jumped in front of him. Just as he was about to run away in a panic, a powerful fist punched him straight in the face.
The boy was punched down by the madman, hitting the ground with a loud thud. The powerful blow left him dizzy, and even if he wanted to run away, he couldn't get up.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, the fat man grabbed his hands, locked them behind his back, and lifted him up, gritting his teeth and angrily cursing, "Using poison arrows?! What a despicable and shameless bastard!" He was almost hit by one!
The madman nimbly jumped down from the tree and made a throat-slitting gesture to Xi Yu, who was approaching: "Boss, do you want to...?"
"Wait a minute." Xi Yu's indifferent gaze fell on the boy, scrutinizing him over.
She found the man's attire quite peculiar; he wore roughly made hemp clothing and carried a wooden bow and arrows as well as a leather quiver. If it weren't for his clean appearance, he would have looked like a primitive man.
The boy was restrained. He knew he couldn't escape their grasp, but he didn't show any fear. Instead, he glared at Xi Yu with rage: "Being caught by you is my fault. Kill me or do whatever you want! But don't even think about getting Guang-ge's whereabouts out of me. I'd rather die than tell you!!"
The fat man spat at him and slapped the boy hard on the back of the head with his large hand, cursing, "Don't give me this nonsense. You insidious brat, you just casually use poison arrows to hurt people? If it weren't for the boss's quick action, I would have been hit!"
The boy's arm was swollen from the beating, and he screamed in pain, "Just kill me!!"
The fat man was so angry that he wanted to hit him again, but Xi Yu stopped him with a look.
Xi Yu looked at the stubborn-looking boy and asked calmly, "Are you a resident of Fucheng? What's your name? Who is this Brother Guang you mentioned?"
The boy's eyes instantly turned red with rage, and he shouted, "You think I'd tell you?! Just kill me already..."
Xi Yu had already grabbed his chin, forcing him to keep his mouth open and unable to speak.
"Answer my question." Xi Yu spoke again, this time releasing a wisp of mental energy to invade the boy's mind.
The boy felt his consciousness drifting further and further away, as if it were about to detach from his body, feeling light and airy.
With almost no resistance, the boy was controlled by Xi Yu's mental power and began to answer questions with a blank stare.
“…My name is Gu Le, and I’m from Fucheng. Guang Ge is the son of the former city lord… He returned to Fucheng two months ago and was seriously injured while saving Guang Ge. He went into hiding, and I can’t let anyone find him…”
The fat man and the madman's expressions changed drastically. Wasn't the one who came to Fucheng two months ago their Black Dog Boss?
"What is Guang-ge's name?" Xi Yu asked again, suppressing her worries.
"Hei Guang... no, Brother Guang said he changed his name, now he's called Black Dog..." Gu Le answered in a daze.
