Xiaobai had never really practiced martial arts, so he couldn't tell if this was authentic Northern Praying Mantis style, but he felt that this person was very difficult to deal with. His instincts kicked in again as he ducked down to avoid the kick, raising his left hand to block the heel of the foot that came flying at him, using force to flip it back. Most people would have fallen backwards from the momentum, but this person's kicking motion was like flowing clouds and water, one kick missed and immediately borrowed the forward momentum to strike downwards. The front kick turned into a downward chop, Xiaobai's left hand changed from sneak attack to frontal defense, a huge force crashed down on him, making his arm ache and go numb, he rolled backwards before standing up again. Meanwhile, that person used the momentum to jump back up into the air, not losing any ground at all.

  It's not that Xiao Bai's reaction speed is slow, but in terms of eyesight and speed, Xiao Bai is much faster than the opponent. However, the opponent has obviously undergone long-term combat training, and their continuous movements have become a kind of intuitive reflex, with all changes happening quickly and reasonably without needing to think. These two moves actually only took an instant, and the person's body soared high into the air, while another person's body shot out from below, almost scraping the ground, and kicked Xiao Bai's **** from below. The opponent also had two more people arrive, one on the left and one on the right, swinging their staffs in a straight line, striking Xiao Bai's face and chest. The top, middle, and bottom three routes, as well as the left, middle, and right three positions, were attacked in perfect coordination, all aimed at taking down innocent Xiao Bai.

  Xiao Bai only said two words: "You..." and couldn't say anything else, and he felt that even if he explained, it would be useless. The four bodyguards were filled with hatred, just like they were facing the enemy who had killed their husband and taken their wife. Xiao Bai felt that their emotions at this moment were no longer just about protecting their employer, but about venting their hatred on him, and under such emotions, there was no way to reason with them, and he would really lose his life if he wasn't careful.

  Knowing this, Xiao Bai couldn't dodge or retreat anymore, and instead charged forward. He pulled out a small iron shovel from the cloth bag at his waist with his left hand. His right foot tapped the ground to generate force, twisting his waist to avoid a kick that was coming from below. The "normal" left foot followed through and stepped on the abdomen of the person on the ground. That person had originally flown out with a kick, but didn't expect to be kicked back onto the ground by someone's foot, letting out a pained cry. The attacks from both sides also fell empty, the stick stabbing into the air before turning around and thrusting towards Xiao Bai's ribs again.

  Xiao Bai stepped on the ground and spun around, his left hand flashing out like lightning, the edge of the small shovel slamming into the back of the man's hand on the left, blood flying out. The stick pierced through the air, grazing Xiao Bai's left rib. At the same time, Xiao Bai kicked out with his right foot, striking the base of the stick held by the man on the right, deflecting its trajectory. The tip of the stick pointed upwards. The man's forward momentum was momentarily unchecked, and the stick ended up stabbing into his own left shoulder.

  Xiao Bai's counterattack was purely a rogue move, without any rules or reason. What was rare was his quick reaction and accurate judgment, which allowed him to injure three people in an instant. He felt that these three people should also be practitioners, but compared to the high-level expert from earlier, they were still lacking in skill. That high-level expert had borrowed force to jump into the air, and Xiao Bai turned around to counterattack, injuring three people. The whole thing happened extremely quickly, taking no more than a blink of an eye. At this time, the bodyguard in mid-air was already spinning down, one leg slightly bent and standing like an axis, while the other leg swept across with a whooshing sound. This was originally a sweeping kick aimed at the lower body, but the person had adapted to the situation and launched it from mid-air. Xiao Bai had completed so many movements in such a short time, and this one kick was unavoidable no matter what.

  Although he couldn't dodge, Xiao Bai didn't close his eyes and wait to be kicked. With all his might, he swung his left hand, and the small iron shovel sliced towards the opponent's ankle bone position. In his heart, he thought: "You can kick if you want, but before you kick me, I'll first give you a crushing fracture!"

  Just as Bai Shaofeng was fighting with the four bodyguards, a loud roar of an engine came from the waves in the distance. A speedboat then emerged from the waves and landed directly on the beach. The speedboat crashed onto the pebble beach with a loud impact, bouncing off the ground and sliding out a great distance, its propeller still spinning at high speed. Before the speedboat even landed, a woman in white had already leapt into the air, waving her hand elegantly as she soared through the air with an incredibly beautiful posture.

  The newcomer was precisely Luo Xue's "private home tutor" Gu Ying. She saw her waving motion as if throwing something out, towards the direction of the five people in the melee. However, with the naked eye, it was impossible to see what she had thrown out. Not seeing doesn't mean there's no effect. Before Xiao Bai's shovel could even swing out, the air in front of him suddenly burst open like a balloon, and an invisible shockwave made him stumble backwards and fall. The small shovel also flew out of his hand. The bodyguard flying in mid-air was also swept up by this gust of wind, flipping over and flying out in the opposite direction.

  The worst was the guy who got trampled by Xiaobai, as the air wave came and he had nowhere to hide. When Xiaobai fell backwards, his foot also landed heavily on him, and with a "hiss" sound, he fainted. The other two bodyguards were also sent flying out in opposite directions. Gu Ying waved her hand to stop the group fight on the beach, but Ao Lian didn't even glance this way, and as soon as she landed, she rushed to Luo Xue's side. Only when she saw Luo Xue's face did her icy gaze reveal a hint of warmth. In fact, it hadn't been long since Xiaobai saved Luo Xue, and Luo Xue was still not fully awake.

  Luó woke up from her daze, feeling a cool sensation on her chest. She vaguely saw a young man pull up her collar and couldn't help but exclaim, covering her chest with both hands. The man suddenly did a front flip over her, as if avoiding something, and then several figures flew over her, gathering in a heap not far away. Someone helped her up and held her in their arms, softly calling out: "Xiǎo Luó, are you okay?" Luó saw a familiar face and called out: "Gù jiějie..." before bursting into tears.

  Gu Ying saw that Luo Xi was unharmed and let out a sigh of relief, pulling her into his arms and gently patting her back. He then turned his face to the side and coldly scolded: "Are you bodyguards or assassins? Not taking good care of Miss Luo, only thinking about making trouble!"

  Back on the beach, a bodyguard was unconscious, two others were clutching their wounded wrists and shoulders, and the last one stood at the water's edge staring blankly at the waves. And Bai Shaoliu, who had caused all this trouble, was nowhere to be seen!

  Xiao Bai took advantage of the chaos to jump into the sea and "escape". Although he had injured three bodyguards, the remaining expert was clearly enough for him to drink a pot. Now, another fierce beauty suddenly appeared, seemingly skilled in evil magic, and with a wave of her hand, she unleashed an air explosion. It seemed that she and Luo Xue were also in cahoots, and if they came after him too, it would be troublesome. This group of people didn't even give warning before attacking, nor did they listen to explanations? A lone man doesn't take unnecessary risks, the best strategy is to retreat, so he took advantage of the opportunity to rush to the seaside and disappeared into the waves.

  Those people's abilities may be great, but as long as Xiaobai swims in the sea, he will be safe, unless they are all shark spirits transformed into humans. As Xiaobai quickly drifts away from the shore with the ocean current, he is still thinking - why did those people attack him without saying a word? Did they misunderstand that he was being "unfaithful" to Luo Xue? It's too excessive to try to kill someone just because of that, especially since he hasn't done anything bad yet. And they should also know that it was him who saved Luo Xue.

  Xiaobai thought for a moment and felt that something was off. The four bodyguards rushed up to surround him, but not one of them went to check on Luo Xue who was lying unconscious on the ground! This didn't make sense! Moreover, when they attacked, Xiaobai sensed their emotions, which were standard anger and humiliation, as if they had a deep personal grudge against him. This wasn't possible either! Could it be... could it be that beating him up was more important than Luo Xue's safety?
