Shen Mu instinctively dodged to the side, and the blade grazed her waist, cutting open her coat and sending the thin lining flying out.
When Shen Mu looked up, she saw a man wearing a mask and a hat. The figure and aura were so familiar - it was the man who had attacked her from behind that day!
Before she could even speak, the man swung his short knife at her again.
Shen Mu dodged to the side and kicked his wrist, sending the knife flying into the air. The man instinctively reached out to catch it, but Shen Mu was faster. She grabbed the knife and swung around, slashing the man's forearm viciously.
She heard him grunt, and his movements paused for a moment. Shen Mu took the opportunity to kick him away. She held the knife and approached him step by step, asking coldly, "Who sent you?"
