"You..."
The woman was furious, but before she could act, the bandit leader waved his hand. In an instant, dozens of men surrounded the pair.
Furious, the woman threw a palm strike at the bandit leader.
The bandit leader focused his mind and gathered his Qi, returning a palm strike of his own. A wave of energy erupted between them, causing everyone nearby to stagger.
"Nice move."
The bandit leader's eyes narrowed. With a slight exertion of force, the woman grunted in pain and stumbled back several steps.
The woman's face paled instantly. The exchange had made it clear that her strength was a notch below his; he was at least a High Tier Grandmaster Realm Martial Artist.
She couldn't help but regret her arrogance. She should have tried to escape with her boyfriend at the first opportunity.
"How could you..."
"How could we what? Nobody tells us what to do. We are the law around here."
