The Deadly Hitwoman: The Heiress's Special Abilities

Chapter 1097: Chapter 1097: Void Array (2)

Han Jing looked at Ning Shiqi deep in thought, not knowing what he was contemplating, but whatever it was, it shouldn’t be about how to break this formation; it must be something else.

Xiaoqi had mentioned that the mastermind behind this was likely someone from Ningxi Island, so...

With Ning Shiqi’s intelligence, how could he possibly not guess it?

Han Jing glanced at Ning Shiqi and suddenly spoke: ”Shi Qi, are you hesitating because if we break the void formation, your identity will be exposed?”

Ning Shiqi was startled and hadn’t yet voiced a denial when he heard Han Jing continue,

”Xiaoqi has already told me; the mastermind is someone from Ningxi Island. Now Brother Qiao is poisoned, Xiaoqi has gone in too, we definitely can’t hide anymore, so anyway, we have to fight this battle. Even if it means going against Ningxi Island, I will not shy away.”

Han Jing spoke with determination, without the slightest hesitation or uncertainty.

Su Yu beside her promptly added: ”Since we can’t hide, there’s no need to hide anymore. We won’t abandon Qiao’er, even if the opposition is Ningxi Island; this matter absolutely leaves no room for maneuver.”

Actually, Su Yu had thought a bit more than Han Jing on this point; he couldn’t be sure whether Ning Shiqi still held the Ning Clan in his heart. The once-destroyed Ning Clan and the current Ning Clan members on Ningxi Island—what difference they held for him.

Therefore, he clearly declared his stance, first to tell Ning Shiqi that no matter how he felt about Ningxi Island now, whether he had a sense of belonging or was wary, they had already become enemies with Ningxi Island, and no matter how powerful the opponent ahead might be, they would not retreat, telling Ning Shiqi not to be burdened.

He had always been a very realistic person, never indulging in unrealistic fantasies, but he had to admit he felt incredibly lucky since meeting Han Jing.

The first time they met, the poison in his body was miraculously neutralized in a stroke of serendipity.

That was truly his luck.

Also, he once truly hated Xia Ji to the bone, but he also had to admit one thing—that even though he was very skilled back then, he still wasn’t Xia Ji’s match. Given the disparity between them, the only plan to deal with Xia Ji was to wait.

He could only act when the time was right.

He had never thought that things would later be completely disrupted, narrowly missing Xia Ji’s trap once again; and though Xia Ji’s plan failed, those ten Soul Stabilizing Needles had tortured him terribly. He held back from acknowledging Han Jing because he didn’t want to bring disaster upon them when he still lacked the ability to protect them.

However, the subsequent events far exceeded their imagination—a resolution in a manner he had never dreamed of.

He could only feel once again that their luck was genuinely good. At that time, even the slightest deviation in the situation would have meant they couldn’t have dealt with Xia Ji with such ease.

Including their later trip to Shengsi Manor where Ning Shiqi was, the situation back then was on the brink of life and death, yet once again miraculously reversed.

Therefore, while he never believed in luck and miracles, after meeting Han Jing, he truly felt fortunate.
