Jiang Li was determined not to let such a beast go after he had encountered him.

"You little brat, you're pretty fast, aren't you? You beat up our men and you think you can just walk away?"

"What? You provoked me first, and you're not allowed to fight back? You got beaten because you were outmatched, and you still have the nerve to yell here. I'm ashamed of you." Fang Qingxun said smugly. "Besides, if you want to hit me, just wait here obediently. Are you stupid or am I stupid?"

"Damn it, what did you say? Say it again if you dare!" one of the henchmen said angrily, pointing at Fang Qingxun.

"I say you guys are stupid. I've seen people act like idiots, but I've never seen anyone who actively seeks out being insulted," Fang Qingxun said arrogantly, not taking these people seriously at all.

Jiang Li's lips twitched. This person was facing so many people alone, yet he was still so arrogant. Jiang Li really didn't know what to say. He truly admired this person's mentality.

Chen Dashun was indeed enraged by Fang Qingxun's words.

"Brothers, get him! Teach him a lesson and avenge our brothers!" Chen Dashun said angrily, holding a knife.

Several men drew their knives and rushed forward, engaging Fang Qingxun in a fight. Fang Qingxun also drew a short knife to counter them. It must be said that Fang Qingxun was quite skilled; despite so many people attacking him with knives, he was not at a disadvantage, though he was unable to break free for the time being.

Jiang Li seized the opportunity, stepped forward, took out an iron rod that he had just dug out of the ruins, and joined the game.

Jiang Li didn't use a gun for two reasons. First, he didn't want to expose himself too much because of Fang Qingxun. Who knew what kind of person Fang Qingxun was? It was always better to leave himself a way out.

Secondly, Jiang Li needs to train himself. Although he has been training himself since his rebirth, practice is the best way to improve himself, and relying on his own abilities is the best approach.

"Hey, another little girl has arrived. Whoever catches her gets to keep her," Chen Dashun said to his men as he looked at Jiang Li, who had run out halfway through the journey.

"Charge, brothers!"

"Don't take it, it's mine!"

"Bullshit, this is mine."

"This is mine."

...

Fang Qingxun felt much more relaxed because of Jiang Li's help, even though she didn't know Jiang Li and didn't know why she was helping her.

But the most important thing now is to deal with these people. Holding the knife in his hand, he stabbed at the person next to him. Fang Qingxun was quick, accurate and ruthless, and stabbed the person in the chest. Blood gushed out and he immediately fainted on the ground.

While dodging the attacks of others, Jiang Li seized an opportunity, kicked away the opponent's knife, and then swung his hand, hitting the opponent on the head with an iron rod, causing the opponent to fall down immediately.

Fang Qingxun glanced at Jiang Li and found that Jiang Li was quick and ruthless in her actions, requiring no help from him, so he ignored her.

The two of them quickly resolved most of the issue. Chen Dashun, seeing the situation before him, knew he had run into a tough opponent and hurriedly tried to escape, but Jiang Li was not about to give him that chance.

Jiang Li stepped forward and blocked Chen Dashun's path. Without saying a word, he and Chen Dashun immediately started fighting. Jiang Li basically overwhelmed Chen Dashun. Seeing that he was about to lose, Chen Dashun immediately begged Jiang Li for mercy.

"Little girl, please let me go. We've never met before, and I haven't done anything to offend you. Why are you helping this kid? I have food; I can give it to you." Chen Dashun didn't understand why this little girl was so ruthless, trying to kill him right away. He didn't remember ever offending her.

Jiang Li didn't waste any words with him, and continued fighting with undiminished speed, wanting to quickly finish off Chen Dashun. Seeing that Jiang Li was unyielding, Chen Dashun also fought back fiercely, but in the end, Jiang Li was the one who prevailed. Chen Dashun died without understanding what he had done to offend Jiang Li, which led Jiang Li to use such ruthless methods.

After Jiang Li finished dealing with Chen Dashun, Fang Qingxun's situation was also resolved.

"Thanks for earlier, beautiful lady. My name is Fang Qingxun. You're quite skilled." Looking at this girl who suddenly appeared, so pretty and seemingly delicate, yet so capable, Fang Qingxun was very curious about Jiang Li.

"Thank you for the compliment. My name is Jiang Li. I have a grudge against them, and I'm not here to help you, so you don't need to thank me. You should be able to get away without me." Jiang Li really was just doing it on a whim. Without him, Jiang Li would have done the same thing if he had encountered Chen Dashun and the others, since they really deserved it.

"By the way, how did you offend them?" Jiang Li was very curious about how Fang Qingxun had provoked them.

"Well, it's a long story. Their boss actually took a liking to me and insisted that I become his wife. How could I stand for that? I fought with them right then and there."

"Is he the boss you're talking about?" Jiang Li pointed to Chen Dashun on the ground.

"It's him. You know, he's so greasy. He even wants to be with me. He's like a toad trying to eat swan meat." Fang Qingxun glanced at Chen Dashun on the ground with disdain.

Indeed, this was a bit too much. Jiang Li hadn't expected Chen Dashun to have such tastes. Jiang Li didn't discriminate against this kind of thing; society was becoming more and more open, and this was quite normal, so she could accept it. But just imagining Chen Dashun and Fang Qingxun gave her goosebumps. She couldn't bear to think about it at all. Just as she was about to say a few words of comfort to him, she heard what he said next.

"Seriously, are you kidding me? I'm so handsome, how could he possibly covet me? Besides, shouldn't I be the husband? How could he possibly make me his wife?" Fang Qingxun had an expression that said, "I'm the most handsome."

Uh, Jiang Li was speechless. Besides, is it really okay for you to be so narcissistic?

To be honest, Fang Qingxun is indeed quite good-looking, with a delicate and refined appearance. His silver-white hair is also a big plus, no wonder Chen Dashun was attracted to him. But he is really narcissistic.

However, when it comes to handsome men, Jiang Li thinks of Gu Jin's face, with his high nose bridge and deep eyes. Jiang Li still admires Gu Jin more.

"I heard from them that you beat up their brother. You should know where they live, right? How many people are still there?"

Jiang Li thought that since they were already here, they should take down their stronghold. Those who were involved with Chen Dashun were not good people either. He just didn't know if Chen Dashun had anyone else behind him.

In this life, Chen Dashun hasn't gone to the base yet, so the events of his previous life probably won't happen again.

"I know, I came from there. It's not far ahead. There aren't many people left inside, maybe a dozen or so. I injured a few of them before." Fang Qingxun didn't know what Jiang Li was planning, but answered truthfully.

"How about we cooperate? People like them must have stolen a lot of stuff. You take me there, and we'll take down their hideout. We'll split the loot 70/30, you get 70% and I get 30%?"

Fang Qingxun's eyes lit up when he heard Jiang Li's plan.

"How come I didn't think of that method? Okay, I'll take you there now, but let's split the stuff 50/50, since I'm just showing you the way, and you helped me earlier too."

"Okay, then it's a deal." Fang Qingxun had no objections, so I certainly wouldn't either.
