Chapter 39 Rescue
Chapter 39 Rescue
It was a small gang of nine people, led by a tall, burly man with a fierce-looking face.
When the nine people saw Chi Heng and his group, they were stunned for a moment, but their eyes immediately fell on Yu Yao and Luo Mei and couldn't look away.
One of the tall, thin young men stammered excitedly, "Boss, boss, there's a woman! A top-notch woman! A top-notch woman!"
Their undisguised gazes were too blatant and filthy.
The men on Chi Heng's side instinctively shielded Luo Mei and Yu Yao behind them, blocking those filthy gazes.
Upon seeing this, the leader of the opposing party's eyes flashed with displeasure. He spread out his rough, large hand, and a flame rose from it, swaying in the wind.
At the same time, he said, "Gentlemen, it's fate that we've met, shall we chat?"
Qi Xian chuckled but remained silent.
Chi Heng spoke in a deep voice, asking, "What are you talking about?"
Upon hearing Chi Heng's question, the burly man's lips curled into a contemptuous smile.
He extinguished the flames, raised his chin, and said arrogantly, "I think you guys are pretty good. How about considering joining my team?"
A bunch of pretty boys, I'll deal with you all after I bring you in!
While he was talking to Chi Heng, his eyes were trying to find Yu Yao's figure through Chi Heng, his lustful gaze was obvious.
Chi Heng's cold gaze swept over the group of people.
After a moment, he said expressionlessly, "I won't consider it."
The burly man's expression changed: "You won't listen to reason, so you'll have to suffer the consequences?"
Dongfang Jin couldn't help but laugh out loud, which drew angry glares from the other party.
He hurriedly said, "I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to. I just wanted to say that the world is not peaceful these days, and drinking can lead to trouble!"
"You brat, you're looking for death!"
The big man cursed angrily, and once again conjured a fireball in his palm, throwing it straight at Dongfang Jin's face.
Dongfang Jin's smile faded slightly, but she did not make any move to avoid him or show any signs of nervousness.
Qi Xian stepped forward, slightly raised his hand, and dispersed the fireball. At the same time, a trail of fire roared towards the group.
In just two breaths, they had entangled the other party and easily surrounded the nine people.
Now, that group of people finally realized they had messed with the wrong person.
This is not just a group of simple pretty boys...
They then noticed that the men they considered gigolos were all walking with ease and working in perfect harmony.
His clothes were neat and clean, indicating that he was a person who lived a comfortable life.
Realizing this, the big guy immediately changed his attitude: "Brother, it's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, don't be impulsive!"
Qi Xian snorted coldly, "What misunderstanding? Throwing your superpower at my second brother's face is a misunderstanding?"
In fact, Chi Heng and his companions had seen quite a few people like this after the apocalypse.
People who were unknown or even at the bottom of society before the end times.
The sudden acquisition of superpowers, coupled with the rapid collapse of social order, gave these people the illusion that they were the protagonists.
Relying on their supernatural abilities, they bullied men and women, occupied land as kings, and brought the evil of human nature to its extreme.
Seeing the flames about to climb up to his neck, the big guy quickly said, "It's a misunderstanding, it's a misunderstanding. My little flame went out before it even reached your brother's face. It won't hurt anyone."
His legs were shaking, and his previous arrogance and haughtiness were gone.
Qi Xian gave a wicked smile, and the fiery rope snaked upwards, aiming straight for the big guy's right eye.
"My powers are almost exhausted. Do you think this fire rope will go out before it burns your eye off?"
The burly man stared in terror with his cloudy eyes, pleading, "No, no, no, young man, it's my fault, I was wrong. I'll make amends, I'll compensate you! We have plenty of supplies at our camp, including crystal cores and women. We'll give them all to you, just spare our lives! Please, please!"
Qi Xian frowned. "You have another hideout? Where is it?"
The big guy trembled as he moved his finger and pointed in a direction.
"It's not far over there. I...I'll take you there!"
His eyes held a calculating look, but Qi Xian pretended not to notice and turned to look at Chi Heng and Dongfang Jin.
Dongfang Jin and Chi Heng exchanged a glance, then turned to meet the big man's eyes and said, "Take us there."
"Okay, okay, let's go!"
The nine people were thus swept along by the fire, and they led Chi Heng and the others to a pastry shop two streets away.
The first floor of the shop was a mess, with garbage everywhere.
The second floor wasn't much better; food wrappers, bottles, glasses, and dirty clothes were scattered everywhere on the floor.
The big guy led Luo Pingjing to the room where supplies were stored.
The tall, thin man who had spoken earlier looked at Chi Heng obsequiously and said, "Brother, the woman on top, although she's not as pretty as the two girls in your team..."
After receiving Chi Heng's cold gaze, he quickly changed his tune: "But they've all been trained and are very obedient!"
Chi Heng glanced at Dongfang Jin beside him. Dongfang Jin understood and was about to follow him up to the third floor when Yu Yao stopped him.
"Let's go with Amei."
Chi Heng's eyes flickered slightly.
Although she appears aloof, she is far more sensitive than one might imagine.
Dongfang Jin was also stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Okay, be careful."
Seeing this, the tall, thin man wanted to say something, but after being given a cool glance by Yu Yao, he wisely shut his mouth.
Yu Yao didn't ask the other person to lead the way; instead, she went up to the third floor with Luo Mei.
Using the map, the two quickly found four scantily clad women huddled together in a corner of a secluded room.
The room had no windows, was very dark, and the air was foul and filled with the smell of excrement.
When the door opened, the light from outside shone in, making them squint uncomfortably.
It's clear he's been imprisoned for a long time.
By the light from the doorway, Yu Yao noticed that they were covered in bruises and wounds, their eyes were lifeless, and the word "miserable" simply couldn't describe their plight.
The oldest woman among the four looked to be around thirty years old, while the youngest looked to be only fifteen or sixteen.
Luo Mei gritted her teeth and muttered under her breath, "Beast!"
Yu Yao paused for a moment, then took out four sets of comfortable women's sportswear from her space and covered them with the clothes along with Luo Mei.
The oldest woman was only considered pretty, but she had a pair of extremely attractive eyes.
When Yu Yao draped the clothes over her, she instinctively flinched.
Yu Yao paused, then said softly, "Don't be afraid, you're saved."
The woman was stunned for a few seconds before she realized what Yu Yao had said. Tears welled up in her eyes instantly, and she asked uncertainly, "Really? Really?"
The other girl became agitated, grabbed Yu Yao's arm, and asked through gritted teeth, "Where are those beasts?!"
“Down below!” Yu Yao replied.
The girl asked again, "How are they? Are they dead?"
"Not yet, if you want revenge..."
Before Yu Yao could finish speaking, the girl knelt down excitedly in front of Yu Yao.
"I want to, I want to, please, let us kill those beasts ourselves!!!"
Yu Yao pursed her lips, gave a soft "Mmm," and said, "Get dressed first, we'll take you downstairs."
"Good! Good!"
......
After the girls had put on their clothes and shoes and stood up with each other's help, Yu Yao and Luo Mei led them downstairs.
Downstairs, in addition to the nine people who brought them back, there were five more strangers.
Fourteen people were neatly bound by Jiang Yi's vines and kneeling in the hall, their faces ashen.
That's right, the big guy had helpers, and his poor acting skills gave him away early on.
Chi Heng's purpose in coming was not for the so-called supplies or to rescue people.
It's just about eliminating the root of the problem to prevent these people from causing more trouble in the future.
When the big guy took Luo Pingjing to collect supplies, he originally planned to take the opportunity with a few people hiding in the shadows to capture him and take him hostage.
Unexpectedly, he was outmaneuvered by Luo Pingjing, losing both supplies and being arrested.
The remaining people were also captured by Jiang Yi using his wood-based superpowers and thrown to the ground, waiting for Yu Yao and Luo Mei to come down.
Upon seeing this, the girls who came down with Yu Yao and Luo Mei were consumed by hatred and rushed forward without caring about anything else.
He cried out and punched and kicked the group of people who were tied up.
The girl who had previously asked Yu Yao if she could kill them herself was the first to calm down.
She walked towards Yu Yao, her voice trembling as she pleaded, "Could you please give me a weapon?"
Yu Yao quite admired the girl's ruthlessness and calmly took out a dagger from her spatial storage and handed it to her.
The girl gave Yu Yao a grateful smile, picked up the dagger, and looked at the big guy with a ruthless glint in her eyes.
The burly man stared at her in terror, still threatening and cursing, "What do you think you're doing? You bitch, I'm your man!"
"Shut up!!!" the girl screamed, raising her dagger and stabbing it fiercely into the big man's heart.
Even when his arm was burned by the superpower unleashed by the big guy, he didn't stop for a moment.
The big guy who had been pretending to be fierce just watched helplessly as the girl stabbed him again and again.
They showed no intention of stopping.
Only after the big guy completely collapsed did she calm down a bit and look at another person with the same gaze she had given a dead man.
