"Let them go!"

The man lying on the ground ran over like a madman and grabbed the bandit.

The bandit holding the woman turned around slightly and kicked the man hard in the stomach. The man fell to the ground in pain, unable to make a sound.

The bandits, carrying the two women who were crying pitifully, turned and left without giving the man on the ground another glance.

After taking only a few steps, the man lying on the ground trembled as he tried to grab the bandit.

A short bandit impatiently turned around and plunged a knife straight into the man's abdomen.

Slide~

With a piercing sound, the man fell straight down and stopped breathing.

The street seemed to be stained red with blood.

"Dad~~"

"My lord~~"

The sound seemed to resound through the sky, echoing for a long time in the empty street.

"What a disappointment."

The murderer snorted coldly.

Then the group swaggered away.

As Li Baobei watched this scene, her hands unconsciously clenched, her nails digging deep into her palms, but she didn't feel any pain at the moment.

Only a deep sense of powerlessness and despair remained.

This is hell on earth.

A tear of despair fell from her reddened eyes.

She was so desperate. If only she had a cheat code like in novels, she could jump down and save that unfortunate family. But she had no skills; all she had was an exhausted body.

Li Baobei squatted down against the wall in despair, sobbing silently.

"I can't help it, I can't save anyone else, I can't save anyone..."

Anji slowly squatted down, looking at Li Baobei. She knew what Li Baobei was thinking. "Do you want me to go and save them?"

Li Baobei suddenly raised her tear-filled eyes and looked at Anji with blurred vision.

"But I'm afraid you'll get hurt... I don't know anything, I don't want you to be in danger, I don't know anything."

Looking at Li Baobei's trembling, desperate body, Anji suddenly thought of his own childhood.

The scene of her parents being killed by bandits filled her with despair. She covered her mouth tightly and hid in the haystack, not daring to make a sound.

The bandit stabbed her in the stomach and she slowly collapsed in front of her. The blood flowing from her wound was like a river, flowing endlessly and seeping deep into the soil.

That day, all she could see was red.

Desperate tears streamed helplessly from her eyes, but the little girl dared not make a sound, and could only watch her mother lying on the ground, barely alive.

Her mother gave her a weak smile, then closed her eyes forever...

She will never forget that day.

"No……"

...

"I'll be fine. Make sure you lock the doors and windows and don't go out."

After finishing speaking, Anji got up and quickly closed the window. Then he gently opened the door, went out, and closed the door again.

Her footsteps were extremely light, and she disappeared from the inn in no time.

"You must take good care of yourself, Anji..."

A tall, imposing figure slowly appeared on the deserted street, holding a gleaming longsword in his hand and wearing a black cloth over his face.

The bandit, who was walking happily along the road, suddenly saw the figure in front of him and shouted dismissively, "Where did this petty thief come from, daring to block my way? I think you're tired of living."

Another man carrying a woman shouted, "If you come over here and lick our shoes clean one by one, we might consider letting you live, hahaha..."

Arrogant laughter echoed through the streets, sounding utterly menacing.

One of the thugs noticed that the person not far away was radiating a terrifying murderous aura, and he felt a growing unease, as if the air itself had turned several degrees colder.

He then whispered, "This person is not to be underestimated, everyone be careful."

"What's there to be afraid of? Let me finish him off."

The smaller bandit, carrying a knife, ran up and shouted, "Give me your life!"

As Anji listened to the bandits charging from behind, he sneered inwardly, "They're so slow."

She slowly drew her longsword, her eyes flashing with bloodthirsty killing intent.

In an instant, he turned and leaped, easily slipping past the bandits.

Clang~~

The sound of a knife falling to the ground.

The bandit's body then fell straight down.

Not a single drop of blood remained on her sword; she won without bloodshed.

The bandits then lost all their vitality.

The six men behind suddenly became enraged. The two bandits who were holding the woman immediately threw her to the ground, wishing they could hack the people in front of them to death the next second.

At this moment, the mother and daughter had already given up hope and stopped resisting, sitting on the ground like two wooden figures.

The six bandits brandished their knives and slashed wildly at Anji, their hearts filled with hatred. They were determined to kill the man before them and avenge their brothers.

Anji coldly glanced at the crowd rushing towards them, "Still too slow."

Suddenly, a blurry figure flashed through the middle of the bandits, as fast as lightning and as strong as a gale.

In an instant, the strong stench of blood filled the entire street, the cold wind seemed to freeze, and everything stood still at that moment.

The knife and the bandit fell to the ground without a tremor, completely and utterly dead.

There wasn't a trace of blood on the longsword in Anji's hand. With a gentle wave of her hand, the longsword slowly returned to its sheath, its sharpness concealed.

With a light leap, her nimble body vanished from the battlefield filled with the aura of death.

Creak~~

Li Baobei paced anxiously in the room when she suddenly heard the door open. Overjoyed, she exclaimed, "Anji..."
