This voice seemed to come from beyond the heavens, refreshing and lingering in the air.

Red Wolf Green suddenly turned his head, a trace of fear flashing in his eyes, and couldn't help but shout, "Who is it? Come out now!"

He saw the bamboo grove swaying, and a young girl with a longbow stood atop the bamboo branches, smiling as she looked in the direction of the Wansheng Weapon Workshop.

In an instant, everyone was stunned, including Ryan Bennett, who was lying in the pile of weapons.

The girl in the bamboo grove was as beautiful as a fairy, her delicate face impossibly lovely, her stunning eyes carrying a faint smile, red lips slightly parted, the corners of her mouth gently upturned. Her long, fair neck was unadorned, and she wore a light blue leather armor. Two alluring curves on her chest accentuated her proud figure, the shoulders of her armor highlighted with silver plating inlaid with shimmering gems. Below, she wore a flowing white gauze skirt, the hem fluttering, and her beautiful legs were faintly visible.

"Gulp!"

Red Wolf Green swallowed hard and said, "Miss, what brings you here?"

The girl held her longbow, gracefully landed on the ground, stepped in silver-threaded boots, and smiled slightly: "Nothing special, just following my master's orders to come down the mountain and take seven heads!"

Green couldn't help but laugh: "Which seven heads?"

The girl smiled sweetly: "The seven tyrants of Liang City!"

"What?!"

The seriously injured Paul Thompson couldn't help but shout angrily, "Who exactly are you?"

The girl curled her lips, her clear and beautiful smile stirring the hearts of all. She said calmly, "Qingyou Sect, Sophie Hill."

Before her words had faded, a cold flash shot through the air!

"Thud!"

A huge bloody hole appeared in Paul Thompson's chest. The power of that arrow was terrifying, and the girl's movements were so fast that no one present even saw what happened—Paul Thompson had already been killed with a single shot.

Chapter 7 Frank Foster

Inside the main gate, three burly men, wielding a battle axe, a spear, and a broadsword respectively, charged out. At last, with Paul Thompson dead, the final three of the seven tyrants of Liang City could no longer hold back and made their move.

They had only one goal: to kill the beautiful girl before them.

Compared to survival, the girl's beauty was now secondary.

"Heh..."

Sophie Hill smiled casually, put away her longbow, and suddenly a gleaming dagger appeared in her right hand. In the next moment, her beautiful figure turned into a blur, carrying a fierce energy as she darted out, landing lightly atop the archway in the marketplace after a few swift leaps.

"Thud, thud, thud..."

Three muffled sounds rang out. The last three of the seven tyrants of Liang City fell one after another, a clear bloody line across their necks. The girl's strike was simply too fast, her strength completely overwhelming everyone present.

Ryan Bennett slowly stood up and helped Michael Bolton to his feet, discovering that this honest young man's injuries weren't too serious—just a few broken ribs, making it impossible for him to get up for the moment.

Faced with Sophie Hill's overwhelming strength, both Ryan Bennett and Michael Bolton were secretly amazed. Sophie Hill looked about their age, yet was already so much stronger!

……

Red Wolf Green, his blood-red eyes first filled with hatred, then horror, and finally cunning. He suddenly clasped his fists and smiled at Sophie Hill: "So that's who it is—turns out to be the famous disciple of Qingyou Sect! In the legends of the martial world, Qingyou Sect is the number one sect on the continent. These seven tyrants of Liang City were truly wicked; killing them is a service to the people! I still have some matters to attend to, Sophie Hill, we shall meet again in the martial world!"

With that, Green turned to make a quick getaway.

Who would have thought, Sophie Hill chuckled softly: "No matter how fast you run, can you outrun my Chasing Cloud Bow?"

"This..." Green looked terrified, but forced himself to remain calm and said indifferently, "Sophie Hill, we have no enmity between us, why shoot me? Isn't your mission this time to assassinate the seven tyrants of Liang City?"

Sophie Hill held her longbow in her left hand, played with her hair with her right, and smiled: "That's right, this time the mission is to kill the seven tyrants of Liang City. But a month ago, my mission was to kill Red Wolf Green. Because you kept hiding, I couldn't complete the mission and got scolded by my master. Hmph, do you think I'll let you go today?"

Green was shocked: "I, 赤狼, have always acted openly and uprightly. Why does Qingyou Sect want to kill me?"

Sophie Hill extended her right hand and raised one finger: "First, seven years ago, you raped the wife of Hai Ren, the magistrate of Pei County, killed his entire family, and stole the Xuan-level martial art—Blazing Fire Palm."

She raised a second finger: "Second, five years ago, you killed a traveling merchant from Youzhou and robbed goods worth three thousand taels of silver."

Sophie Hill raised a third finger, pondered for a moment, then smiled: "Hmm, I forgot the third one for now, but the first two are enough for you to die ten times over!"

Green flew into a rage, suddenly channeled all his inner energy, flames enveloping his body, making him look extremely ferocious. He glared at Sophie Hill and said coldly, "Little girl, when I started out, you didn't even know where you were. Today, I won't show any mercy. I'll kill you, and Qingyou Sect can't blame me!"

Sophie Hill snorted lightly, her face showing a proud expression: "Bring it on!"

Red Wolf Green was nearly driven mad. He knew he had to win in one strike, or he would be no match for the girl before him. So he pushed his inner energy to the limit and unleashed his full power in a single attack!

"Boom!"
