Chapter 401 Join Up (Part Two)
"Mister George, watch your back..." Marvin Sheng cried out in shock. George looked back in astonishment and saw a sharp knife heading his way. George was frozen with terror, as if he had seen Death himself beckoning him.
'I'm doomed, ' he thought. He had nothing else in his mind at that moment. But the knife didn't hit him. An arrow whizzed through the air and pierced the assassin's throat. Then came more arrows, which were accurate and fast, slaughtering the assassins by surprise.
George looked in the direction where the arrows came. He saw a smartly dressed woman, who drew a bow with one hand and put the arrows in place with the other rushing towards him. And there was another man, who sent a signal into the sky, as if to inform the others.
"Lady Harper!" George was so shocked that he couldn't utter a word. He couldn't connect the skillful, ag
wly. "Do you have any clue as to who they are?"
Woods Kong shook his head and said, "I don't know them, but they seemed to know everything about our movements, and the assassins used a style of martial arts that seemed to be different from that of the Bright Dynasty."
"It wasn't the fighting style of our Bright Dynasty? Are they from the South Kingdom?" Harper asked doubtfully. "But that can't be. The people from the South Kingdom are skilled with poison. If they were from the South Kingdom, you would have already been captured by them. You couldn't have held on that long until we came."
"The Kong Clan shouldn't have any enemies."
"Well, perhaps they want something, and it happens that you or George have the thing they want," Harper reflected.
Woods Kong's face changed suddenly, as if an idea popped into his mind, but he said nothing.
