Chapter 46: Being Watched

Now, those who had missed out on the Air Force today could no longer sit still.

Liu Chuxue did not refuse either: "I need to keep one for myself; you guys can choose among the rest."

She had already made up her mind. Further ahead, there were several secluded spots. She planned to lure some fish there in a moment and try to collect some into the freshwater of her space. This would not only enrich her space but also make it easier to use whenever needed in the future.

Before long, several fish had been traded away.

It wasn't that people weren't envious or jealous, but what could they do? The girl was just lucky.

However, no one noticed that not far from them, several people were staring intently in their direction.

Liu Chuxue didn't notice at first, but as she lowered her head to pack her things, she caught a glimpse of them out of the corner of her eye.

Her heart skipped a beat. Was she being watched?

However, remembering her immense strength and her spiritual power, she did not lose her composure.

After putting away the fishing gear she had traded for, she politely greeted the people and prepared to leave with the bucket she had brought.

Old Man Xiao, who was the first to trade with her, asked with a smile, "Little girl, when will you come back?"

Liu Chuxue waved her hand and said, "It's hard to say. I'll come by when I have time."

With that, she gave him a smiling nod and left without looking back.

As she walked forward, she did not forget to use the spiritual power she had obtained from the Space Jade Pendant to observe the people nearby.

Just as she suspected, she was being followed. It seemed she had been too conspicuous today.

She felt a bit annoyed. If these people kept following her, how was she supposed to collect fish into her space?

As she rounded a corner, the group likely grew impatient with following her. They bypassed her and blocked her path: "You've got some nerve, acting so unruly on our turf. You've got guts, don't you?"

Due to her job requirements in her previous life, Liu Chuxue had specifically hired a private instructor for self-defense. Combined with her current strength, she wasn't panicked in the slightest: "Who are you?"

"Yo, this girl actually doesn't know who we are?"

The speaker had a thuggish air about him. He reached out, intending to stroke Liu Chuxue's face.

How could Liu Chuxue let him succeed? She immediately blocked him with her bucket: "What do you think you're doing?"

The man turned to the others behind him with a rogueish smirk: "Brothers, she's asking what I want to do!"

The men behind him all burst into laughter, and some even began to whistle.

The man turned back and raised his hand again: "You think you can just leave after getting so many coupons? Let me tell you exactly what we want to do."

But just as his hand rose, Liu Chuxue delivered a kick straight to his stomach. It was no exaggeration to say the man was sent flying.

Furthermore, the force was so great that it also sent the person standing directly behind him flying, terrifying the men on either side of the victim.

The two men flew straight back at least five or six meters before stopping.

Liu Chuxue hadn't expected that a casual kick of hers could send someone flying. She couldn't help but look down at her foot: *My god, what would happen if I used my full strength?*

This kick not only stunned the thugs but also startled the elderly gentlemen who had sensed something was wrong and had followed along to help.

Old Man Xiao was the first to react, saying with a face full of delight, "This is truly a gift from heaven; she's a natural-born soldier."

When Old Man Guo saw a certain individual standing among those men, his face instantly turned ashen. Just as he was about to step forward to intervene, he was stopped by Old Man Xiao: "Let's see how she handles it."

Liu Chuxue set her things down and rolled her wrists: "You were just saying this area is your turf and calling yourselves 'lords,' weren't you?"

The remaining men were paralyzed with fear. Hearing her words, they hurriedly retreated several steps: "Don't you dare do anything reckless!"
