The speed was not fast.

But the momentum was overwhelming.

With every step he took, the ground echoed with thuds.

The ground seemed as if it was about to crack.

Coupled with his bulging muscles.

He was like an enraged bull.

His attack was very straightforward.

Just an ordinary punch.

No fancy moves.

In the face of absolute strength.

Any techniques are meaningless.

At this moment, Zhang Li was not just looking like a bull.

But he was indeed a bull.

Because his all-out punch carried the force of a bull!

Imagine the impact force of a charging bull?

And Gu Yue, despite being slightly tall, standing at 1.68 meters, weighed no more than 110 pounds.

How could she possibly withstand Zhang Li's attack?

Yet, facing Zhang Li's attack.

Gu Yue did not dodge or evade.

She directly stretched out her delicate fist, clashing it against Zhang Li's massive one.

"Looking for death!"

Others were greatly shocked.

Thinking Gu Yue was being too reckless.

After all, the other party was a bodyguard earning a million a year.

Even the accompanying doctors, those laymen, could see that Zhang Li's punch was exceptionally formidable.

And Gu Yue dared to clash head-on.

With her slender arms and legs.

Wasn't she going to get them broken?

Seeing Gu Yue daring to confront him head-on.

Zhang Li's mouth curled into a cold smile.

He seemed to foresee the scene of Gu Yue's hand being broken by him.

Bam!

Finally, the two fists collided.

Crack!

A crisp sound.

Especially distinct in this forest.

"Gu Yue, are you okay!" Zhu Shao's face changed drastically.

He regretted letting the two spar.

Now, Gu Yue's hand must be broken.

But when he took a closer look, his eyes widened.

Others also looked as if they had seen a ghost.

Because they saw, Zhang Li's hand bent at a bizarre angle.

Clearly broken.

Could it be that the crisp sound just now.

Was Zhang Li's bone breaking.

And not Gu Yue's bone breaking?

Gu Yue slowly retracted her fist, glanced lightly at Zhang Li, and said, "May I ask, the person you used to protect, are they still alive?"

Zhang Li's face turned extremely red.

Whether from pain or Gu Yue's remark.

It was a blatant mockery.

Asking if the person Zhang Li used to protect was still alive was clearly a jab at Zhang Li's lack of strength.

Even the people he protected got killed.

Seeing that Zhang Li was the one who got injured, Zhu Shao was overjoyed.

Gu Yue's performance exceeded his expectations.

He initially thought she was just a pretty face.

Unexpectedly, she easily defeated a bodyguard with a million-dollar salary.

This level of skill was incredibly impressive.

However, some frustration remained.

Gu Yue being so strong meant his plans would fall through, wouldn't they?

Yet, in this world, strength isn't everything.

In wanting to win over Gu Yue, he had his methods.

But not now; he still needed her.

Once the task was done, he would then...

"Miss Gu Yue really has impressive skills. I have decided, your compensation will increase from a hundred thousand to two hundred thousand!" Zhu Shao said happily.

Then he looked at the bodyguards with somewhat dejected expressions and said, "Now, you have no objections, right?"

Now, none of the bodyguards dared to speak up.

Those with a monthly salary of ten thousand were easily defeated.

Raising it to twenty thousand was understandable.

Despite the bodyguards looking very unwilling.

But her strength was undeniable.

There's no choice even if they were unwilling.

"Since no one objects, then Gu Yue will be the captain shortly. All of you have to follow her orders." Zhu Shao continued.

"This..." Everyone's expression slightly changed.

They already didn't like Gu Yue, and now they had to be led by a woman.

Made them even more displeased.

"I'm only responsible for ensuring your safety; I'm not interested in anything else." However, Gu Yue said this.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Shao's expression turned a bit awkward.

He originally intended to show favor to Gu Yue.

Unfortunately, she wasn't appreciative.

After Gu Yue finished speaking, she once again stood one and a half meters away from Zhu Shao.

This distance was her optimal position to launch an attack.

The group once again moved deeper into the mountains.

"Zhu Shao, that guy is still following us!"

"I'll go take care of that guy!" Those bodyguards who had been embarrassed in front of Gu Yue immediately wanted to make a contribution in front of everyone.

Zhu Shao nodded.

That guy dared to follow him, no less, and he even brought that sick woman.

Because of that woman, he had lost a full twenty thousand.

Just as the bodyguards were itching to act, Gu Yue spoke again, "If you don't want to die, it's best not to provoke him."

Gu Yue's gaze fell on Su Chen, who was a hundred meters away from the group.

Just in time, Su Chen's gaze also met hers.

Their gazes intersected in the air.

This person is not simple!

That was the shared thought in both of their minds.

The so-called competition between experts, one look was enough.

These people thought Gu Yue was just an ordinary person.

But Su Chen had already seen through, this woman was anything but simple.

If she got serious, even together, this group wouldn't last ten seconds against her.

And in Gu Yue's mind, she also saw Su Chen's extraordinariness.

Although Su Chen didn't have overwhelming potential on him.

She felt that Su Chen was very dangerous.

Without any evidence, it was purely an intuition.

Call it the acuity of a strong person.

Or a woman's sixth sense.

Even if Su Chen wasn't as strong as she imagined.

He was definitely not someone these useless bodyguards could handle.

She slightly furrowed her brows.

She hoped he wouldn't disrupt her plans.

Otherwise, he would also become an enemy.

"Don't underestimate us!"

The bodyguards were a bit annoyed.

They couldn't beat Gu Yue.

But it didn't mean they couldn't handle just anyone, right?

Gu Yue ignored those bodyguards, crossed her arms, and stood quietly there.

Like a piece of dead wood.

"Miss Gu Yue, is that guy very powerful?" Zhu Shao now believed that Gu Yue was indeed an expert and trusted her words.

"I don't know." Gu Yue said flatly.

"Then, who's stronger, you or him, Miss Gu Yue?"

"Don't know."

Gu Yue genuinely didn't know.

After all, just from a single gaze, it was impossible to determine someone's strength bottom line.

Only after a confrontation could one know who was stronger.

But who would causelessly provoke a strong person?

Of course, Gu Yue was quite confident inside.

But she didn't need to explain that to these ordinary people.

"Uh... Then let's not bother him and keep moving forward!" Zhu Shao immediately said.

Since even Gu Yue wasn't certain, Zhu Shao naturally didn't want to look for trouble.

Perhaps the other party was just keeping a certain distance.
