"Hey, Wang Luojie, I heard you brought back a girl. Isn't it a bit selfish to keep her to yourself without letting us have a look?"
Wang Luojie’s gaze sharpened as he looked at the burly leader and calmly replied, "She is my friend; there's no need for that."
The leader, a dark-skinned man with a vicious scar across his face, immediately lost his smile upon hearing this. His eyes turned cold, and he fell silent. Behind him, an underling with a shaved head noticed Scarface's expression and immediately shouted, "Don't think you're so tough! This isn't your base! Even if your abilities are impressive, there are only five of you. We have over forty people here, including ten Ability users. If it comes to a fight, we’ll have the upper hand! If you lose..."
As he spoke, the bald man fell silent but continued to lewdly eye Wang Luojie's companion, Qiaoyue. Seeing this, the monkey beside Qiaoyue flashed a murderous look and stepped forward to block the bald man's gaze.
The bald man sneered at the monkey's action and turned his attention away.
At this moment, Scarface regained his smile and patted Wang Luojie's shoulder as if they were good friends. He said softly, "You know that during base missions, it's forbidden to bring unrelated personnel unless they are also Ability users. But I heard that girl is just an ordinary person. There's no need for you to jeopardize our friendship over her. Besides, you already have a woman; sharing one with us wouldn't hurt, right? After we return to the base, I'll give you some good ones. If it comes to it, we won't go too hard on her; we can just return her to you later."
Scarface was originally part of the underworld—cunning and exceptionally cruel yet petty-minded. He had long been displeased with Wang Luojie's team's success and wanted to dampen their spirits. However, they had refrained from going too far because Qiaoyue's brother was a city guard. But now things were different; with the mountains high and the emperor far away, they had violated base regulations. Even if something "accidental" happened after completing their mission, they could blame it on the rescued girl. Moreover, there was also the chance to take advantage of Qiaoyue, an exquisite beauty—just thinking about it was thrilling.
As this thought crossed his mind, Scarface couldn't help but reveal a disgusting smile that made him look even more grotesque with his scarred face.
Wang Luojie could see the lewd grin on Scarface's face and knew exactly what he was thinking. However, they were indeed at a disadvantage right now... Struggling internally for a moment, he suddenly heard a cool yet slightly arrogant female voice coming from the stairs.
"Oh? But I don't want to; what can you do about it?"
Everyone in the hall froze for a moment and turned their gazes toward the graceful figure slowly descending the stairs. The woman wore only a military green shirt that reached just above her knees—extremely sexy. Her hair was slightly curled and hung obediently over her shoulders, glimmering with a faint reddish hue. Her skin was flawless like high-quality white jade, and her eyes sparkled with lively light. The corners of her eyes were slightly raised like a lazy Persian cat's; her eyelashes curled like those of a doll, making her appear charmingly delicate. With a cute nose and slightly upturned red lips, she exuded an air of exceptional sweetness.
At this moment, Wang Luojie widened his eyes in astonishment as he looked at the woman who resembled Liu You'er by about sixty percent, completely dumbfounded.
Scarface, hearing the slightly arrogant tone, was about to curse when he realized that the person before him was an exceptionally beautiful woman, comparable to Qiaoyue. A glint of greed flashed in his eyes as he watched Liu You'er walk over to Wang Luojie. He then revealed a smile that he considered gentle but was actually quite disgusting, and said softly to Liu You'er, "We mean no harm. It's just that due to regulations, and since you don't have any Ability, it's quite unsafe for you. Joining our team would be much safer."
Liu You'er scoffed disdainfully and replied, "You? And your little lackeys?"
"What?" Scarface momentarily failed to respond. When he realized he had been mocked by a woman, his face turned green with anger, as if he wanted to tear Liu You'er apart. Meanwhile, Wang Luojie and his team felt tense upon hearing her words, thinking, "This woman is too arrogant just because she is the captain's girlfriend! She doesn't have any Ability; if it comes to a fight, we will be the ones doing the work." They began to harbor a slight dislike for Liu You'er.
Qiaoyue remained unfazed and approached Liu You'er, saying, "Don't worry, Sister Liu You'er. We won't let them take you away."
Upon hearing this, Wang Luojie's brows furrowed slightly, while Liu You'er didn't even glance at Qiaoyue, making her feel a bit awkward as she stepped back.
Scarface sneered and said, "Bitch! You're asking for it! Don't blame me! Brothers..."
But before he could finish his sentence, accompanied by the sound of crackling electricity and a flash of white light, everyone had yet to react when Scarface collapsed to the ground, rolling around in agony while emitting white smoke from his body. The bald underling beside him was the first to react and hurriedly tried to help Scarface up. However, as soon as he touched him, he felt an electric current surge into his body, tearing through his veins and causing him to roll on the ground in pain as well.
Liu You'er stepped forward and stomped on the bald man's head, shocking everyone present. Even Scarface momentarily forgot to scream in pain as the headless body of the bald man continued to twitch on the ground, sending chills down everyone's spine. Wang Luojie watched Liu You'er's actions intently without blinking. Meanwhile, Monkey and the others felt exhilarated and thought with no sympathy at all, "Finally, that dog has stopped barking!"
Liu You'er didn't care what they were thinking; she had long wanted to take out that bald man. It seemed he had committed many acts of robbery and violence; she considered it a good deed. As for Scarface...
Scarface was writhing in pain but still had some rationality left. As he watched Liu You'er slowly approach and squat down in front of him, any lewd thoughts vanished. He felt that she was more terrifying than a Zombie; he wouldn't just kill someone brutally over a disagreement! So he shouted urgently, "Damn it! Are you all just eating for nothing? Go on! Kill her!"
The underlings hesitated for a moment but still charged at Liu You'er with fierce expressions...
