Looking at their humble and begging appearance, Lin Feng felt no pleasure, only endless disgust.

What he despises most are people who bully the weak and fear the strong, and who have no bottom line.

"Serve like cattle?" Lin Feng sneered. "I have no shortage of livestock here. Wangcai and the others are much more useful than you. At least they are loyal and won't scheme against their master behind his back."

He paused, his gaze sweeping over the barely alive Xiaomei, before finally speaking, "The one who is seriously injured can stay. The rest of you, go back to where you came from."

Upon hearing this, Yang Li and the others felt as if they had been sentenced to death, their faces turning deathly pale.

"No! Mr. Lin! Please!" Yang Li climbed to the fence and tried to grab Lin Feng's trouser leg: "We really know we were wrong! We'll do anything you ask! Just please give us a way to live!"

"This is not a garbage dump." Lin Feng's voice was devoid of any warmth: "What you have done has exhausted the last bit of my sympathy."

"You don't deserve sympathy, nor do you deserve help!"

Qin Lan and Shen Jiaqi exchanged a glance, their expressions complex.

Although they also despised Yang Li and the others for their actions, they couldn't help but feel sorry for them when they saw their miserable state. But they also knew that Lin Feng's decision was irreversible.

Seeing this, Yang Li's eyes darted around, and she suddenly turned her attention to Qin Lan, Su Wanqing, Tang Bao, and the others.

She knew that sometimes, a woman's soft heart towards another woman could be the best breakthrough.

With a sob in her voice, she pleaded with them, "Sisters! Qin Lan, Tang Bao! Please, say something for us! We're all women, and it's so hard to survive in this cannibalistic world!"

Her voice was inflammatory: "Look at us! We've been attacked by monsters, our homes have been destroyed! We're homeless! You're women too, how can you bear to watch us die out there? We women should unite and help each other to escape the oppression of those...those men!"

As she finished speaking, she gave Lin Feng a subtle glance.

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng's expression changed instantly, but instead of getting angry, he curled up a playful, cold smile.

He slowly turned his head, his gaze sweeping over the faces of Qin Lan, Su Wanqing, Tang Bao, and the others.

"You can choose for yourselves."

Lin Feng's voice was calm and unremarkable, yet it was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, stirring up a storm in the hearts of Qin Lan and the others.

Their faces turned deathly pale in an instant.

This is Lin Feng's final ultimatum to them! This is a trial that will decide their own fate!

If their answers were even slightly unsatisfactory to him, they had no doubt that the shelter doors would open for them in the next second, only to be closed forever!

Seeing Lin Feng relinquish the choice, Yang Li was overjoyed, thinking her plan had worked. She quickly intensified her offensive: "Sisters, did you hear that? He doesn't care about your lives at all! Men are unreliable! Only when we women unite can we survive! Quick, open the door and let us in, let's all..."

"Yang Li, shut your dog mouth!"

A sharp curse, filled with anger and fear, suddenly burst from Qin Lan's mouth, completely interrupting Yang Li's words.

Qin Lan was trembling with rage. Pointing at Yang Li outside the fence, she cursed, "If you want to die, don't drag us down with you! Do you think we're as stupid as you?!"

She stepped forward and announced loudly:

"This shelter belongs to Mr. Lin! Every bite of meat we eat, every sip of water we drink, every piece of clothing we wear was obtained by Mr. Lin at the risk of his life. Everything we have is given to us by him. We are merely his slaves; we do whatever he tells us to do! Who gives you the right to sow discord here?!"

Yang Li was stunned by the scolding; she hadn't expected Qin Lan's reaction to be so intense.

She retorted defiantly, "You...you're all just willing to be oppressed by this man? Have you forgotten your own dignity?"

"Oppression? Dignity?"

Qin Lan seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world. She let out a sharp, mocking laugh: "Yang Li, open your dog eyes and look! We wear warm clothes, live in sturdy wooden houses, and have enough to eat every day! And look at you! You, this independent woman who shouts for 'dignity' and is not 'oppressed' by men, why are you kneeling there like a dog, begging us 'oppressed' people to take you in?!"

These words were like resounding slaps to Yang Li's face, leaving her speechless and her face turning a deep purplish-red.

"that is!"

Tang Bao, hands on her hips and cheeks puffed out, loudly echoed, "We have Brother Lin Feng protecting us, we're doing just fine! Who wants to associate with a jinx like you who only knows how to talk big and causes trouble everywhere! Get lost, don't bring bad luck to us!"

"Yang Li, stop with your act! You can fool young girls online, but it won't work here!"

Su Wanqing also said coldly, "Mr. Lin has given us a stable life, and we are grateful to him. But you want to harm us? What are you up to!"

The other women glared angrily at Yang Li and the others, shouting their rebukes.

Yang Li and the others outside the fence were completely stunned by this sudden and fierce attack from a "same-sex" group.

They had imagined Lin Feng's ruthlessness, but they never thought these women would be even more "fierce" than Lin Feng.

However, just as the women in the shelter were passionately expressing their loyalty, Lin Feng suddenly spoke up casually.

"I remember……"

"You guys used to box, didn't you?"

Upon hearing this, the noisy courtyard instantly fell silent.

The curses from Qin Lan, Tang Bao, Su Wanqing, and all the other women abruptly stopped.

Their faces instantly turned from flushed with excitement to deathly pale, as if their blood had frozen.

A fear even stronger than when they faced the Corpse Laughing Hyena gripped their hearts.

It's over.

He remembered. He had actually remembered all along!

Qin Lan's mind raced, and cold sweat instantly soaked her back.

She forced a smile that looked worse than a grimace, an incredibly awkward and obsequious one, and stammered, "Mr. Lin... that... that was all because we were ignorant back then, in... in that previous world, we were brainwashed by all that nonsense online... we... we've long since woken up!"

"Yes, yes! Brother Lin Feng!" Tang Bao was almost crying too. She shook her head frantically and insisted, "Since we followed you, we've realized how naive and ridiculous our previous thoughts were! We'll listen to you now, and we'll do whatever you tell us to do! Really! We'll never dare to do it again!"

"Yes! That's all in the past!"

"We only trust you, Mr. Lin!"

"People like Yang Li are the negative example for us; we are not like her!"

Immediately, the women began to speak up, vying to express their stance and dissect their "dark history," afraid that if they were even a second too slow, they would be categorized as part of the enemy camp.

Hearing these fearful yet sincere explanations, and seeing their expressions of wanting to tear their hearts out to prove their innocence, Lin Feng's expression softened slightly. He slowly raised his head, his icy gaze sweeping over each of their faces.

“That’s good,” he said calmly.

The women breathed a huge sigh of relief, feeling as if they had just escaped death.

But Lin Feng's next words made their hearts leap into their throats again.

"...Otherwise, I wouldn't mind letting you all get out of here, just like them."

After saying that, Lin Feng ignored everyone else and turned to Qin Lan to give her his final order: "Bring in the seriously injured one. Everyone else, get out of my sight before dark. Otherwise, I don't mind having Zhui Feng and Zhu Yue see them off."
