Peach-Orange! – Chapter 311 – Fierce Battle with Chu Lingfeng

Chu Lingfeng was unaware of Chi Xiaocheng’s transformation. All he knew was that the farmhouse was surrounded, and perhaps some of their people had already broken through to control his subordinates inside.

However, this particular area was currently occupied only by his own men!

So what if Chi Xiaocheng was the female ghost? He had been frightened by her at the last banquet, losing his composure, but now he had so many people with him, and the place was filled with strong yang energy. Why should he be afraid of her?

She was someone who should have died long ago, with no background whatsoever. Even if she died here, no one would ever know.

As for Si Chen, as the second son of the Si family, he still had some use.

If he could capture Si Chen, Chu Lingfeng had plenty of methods to control him. Once Si Chen became his puppet, the path ahead would become much smoother!

These two had to be stopped, no matter what!

Chu Lingfeng glanced subtly at Si Chen, who still wore an indifferent expression, and couldn’t help but sneer.

But when he saw Chi Xiaocheng in that strange state, Chu Lingfeng inexplicably felt the same fear he had experienced during the banquet, when he had been dominated by illusions.

His body shuddered involuntarily.

He shouted at his bodyguards, “What are you waiting for? Attack!”

Since they had delivered themselves to his doorstep, he wouldn’t hold back!

Si Chen’s eyes also turned sharp. Without waiting for the two bodyguards behind him to act, he charged forward first.

He confronted a burly man, throwing a punch straight at the man’s chin.

However, Chu Lingfeng’s six bodyguards were all mercenaries who had survived countless life-and-death battles. Even though Si Chen had trained, he wasn’t a martial artist and stood no chance against even one of them.

Despite also having a male lead’s halo, his role weight was completely suppressed by Chu Lingfeng.

It didn’t take long for him to fall into a disadvantage.

While he fought one bodyguard one-on-one, the other two bodyguards held off the remaining two.

Chu Lingfeng looked at the isolated Chi Xiaocheng and smirked coldly. “Capture her! Dead or alive!”

Chi Xiaocheng was indeed adorable, and her appearance alone made her worthy of being “collected” by Chu Lingfeng.

But she was a female ghost.

To avoid complications, it was best to kill her outright!

Three bodyguards swarmed her, not even giving her time to take any medicine. One of them threw a fist with such force that it seemed capable of smashing her skull.

Chi Xiaocheng gripped the fruit knife in her hand. Under the influence of her darkening, her movements were agile. Taking advantage of her petite frame, she tilted her head slightly and dodged the punch.

At the same time, she twisted her body and, using the bodyguard’s forward momentum, drove the knife straight into his flesh.

Her precise surgical knife skill activated instantly.

With a “sizzle,” a bright streak of blood splashed into the air, landing on the other two bodyguards.

They never expected that a 1.9-meter-tall brute’s lightning-fast punch could be so easily dodged by this little girl!

Chu Lingfeng gnashed his teeth and shouted, “She’s a martial artist! Close in on her! Don’t give her a chance to breathe!”

The remaining two bodyguards stiffened at his words and lunged at Chi Xiaocheng again.

Yet, Chi Xiaocheng moved like an elegant butterfly, dancing between their fierce attacks, her nimble body impossible to catch.

She didn’t know martial arts. She was only relying on her agility to evade, while her counterattacks depended purely on the instincts granted by her surgical knife skill.

Every slash drew blood.

The skills she could activate weren’t limited to just her intermediate acting ability.

Before long, the two bodyguards were covered in bleeding wounds.

But what Chi Xiaocheng didn’t expect was that the bodyguard who had been slashed earlier rejoined the fight. One of them retreated and immediately went to Chu Lingfeng’s side.

The Thirteen Taiyi Needles were instantly deployed!

The bodyguard, who had already lost two fingers to Chi Xiaocheng’s blade, was pricked by the needles and seemed to enter a frenzied state. His eyes turned blood-red, and his muscles visibly bulged!

With this bodyguard back in the fight, Chi Xiaocheng’s pressure more than doubled!

Although her dark transformation was powerful, it was also overloading her body. At her core, she still had physical limitations.

Dragging this out would only put her at a disadvantage.

Moreover, as soon as one bodyguard joined the fight, another would retreat to receive Chu Lingfeng’s needle treatment.

It was like a battle of attrition. One after another, they would be enhanced and then return.

Then, an unexpected turn of events occurred.

The bodyguards Si Chen had brought were hired through standard recruitment. Against these retired mercenaries, they could only endure the beatings. One of them was knocked down with a single punch and quickly dragged to Chu Lingfeng’s side.

The Thirteen Taiyi Needles were used in the same manner.

The bodyguard’s hair stood on end, and his eyes turned crimson.

The three-on-one fight became four-on-one.

“Dammit, I don’t even have a chance to take medicine!”

Chi Xiaocheng had overestimated herself, thinking that with her dark transformation and the system’s help, she had nothing to fear.

And that was true… if not for Chu Lingfeng’s Thirteen Taiyi Needles enhancing and enraging these bodyguards, dealing with them would have only been a matter of time for her.

Who would have thought he still had this trick up his sleeve?

Danger closed in. The wind from a fist grazed the side of Chi Xiaocheng’s face, slicing off a lock of her hair!

There was no choice! She had to fight for her life!

With her pain reduction skill, she could withstand a punch. The priority now was to take down one bodyguard, break free, and then use her emotional points to exchange for medicine from the system space!

Chi Xiaocheng’s plan was solid.

But she wasn’t the protagonist.

The world wouldn’t operate as she wished.

A bodyguard who had been observing Chi Xiaocheng’s weaknesses from the sidelines noticed her knife hand trembling slightly.

In the blink of an eye—

He struck with a palm like a blade, aiming straight for Chi Xiaocheng’s right shoulder.

“Argh—!”

A cry of pain rang out, but it didn’t come from Chi Xiaocheng.

It came from Si Chen.

The man’s glasses were half-shattered, his face swollen. The bodyguard he had been fighting was already on the ground.

He had rushed over to block the blow for Chi Xiaocheng.

Like a beast freed from its chains, Si Chen grinned savagely. “I’m still a descendant of the Si family! Don’t underestimate me!

“Chi Xiaocheng, run! They won’t dare do anything to me!”

With that, Si Chen recklessly charged at another bodyguard who had been enraged by the Thirteen Taiyi Needles.

After this, who could still call him a man who only cared about profit?

For a moment, Chi Xiaocheng was dazed. But Si Chen’s intervention disrupted the bodyguards’ coordinated assault.

She was about to exchange for medicine from the system when—

Out of the corner of her eye, she spotted a figure running toward them.

“Tao….”

Before she could finish, that split-second distraction cost her.

A bodyguard’s fist was already upon her.

With a dull “thud,” it landed heavily on her abdomen.

Her petite body was sent flying two meters into the air.

Amid a spray of blood, she crashed onto the body of a fallen bodyguard.

In her fading vision, she saw a high-ponytailed girl who had frozen mid-sprint.

“Xiaocheng—!!!”
