Just then, Ye Xiaofei stepped forward and gave Yu Junhao a fawning smile.
"Captain Yu, excuse me, where are Fatty and the others?"
She had just secretly circled the car, but found no trace of Yu Jinghua and the others.
“Fatty? Oh, you mean Yu Jinghua and the others?” Ke Songyuan glanced at her sideways. “They’re dead.”
"Dead, dead?" Ye Xiaofei's breath hitched, and she forced a smile. "How could I be dead? Deputy Captain Ke, don't joke with me like that."
"A joke?" Ke Songyuan scoffed. "Xiao Jiu, show her."
As he finished speaking, the last bald young man bent down and pulled a human head out of the car.
It was thrown with a 'thud' in front of Ye Xiaofei.
The head rolled twice on the ground.
When she turned face up, Yu Jinghua's wide-open, unseeing eyes met her gaze.
Ye Xiaofei screamed and stumbled back a few steps, falling down into the roadside bushes.
"Did you kill him?" she asked, trembling.
"Yes, we killed them."
Gao Zhuo, who was wearing a tight-fitting suit despite the sweltering heat, gave a cold laugh.
"He only sent us a message, and he dared to ask for 30 jin of rice! He's asking for it! Does he even deserve it?"
Ye Xiaofei shielded her daughter behind her, her lips trembling as she continued to ask, "What about the others..."
Gao Zhuo curled his lips into a wicked smile, "They're all dead~"
No sooner had she finished speaking than the man named Xiao Jiu threw several more heads in front of her.
It was the same group of people who went with Yu Jinghua to deliver the message.
Ye Xiaofei's face was deathly pale. She covered her daughter's eyes tightly with her hands and looked at the group of men in front of her with a look of horror.
A person who was alive and well just over an hour ago now appears before her in such a horrific way...
She was afraid.
They are not human, they are demons!
"If you don't want to give it, just refuse and let them come back. Why kill them!"
Li Xuelan, who was following behind Ye Xiaofei, screamed uncontrollably.
Among the dead men were her brother and her husband.
The sudden loss of two loved ones, especially the brutal method of having their heads severed, devastated her.
"You bunch of murderers, give me back my brother and husband!"
With red eyes and a crazed expression, she picked up stones from the roadside and started throwing them at the members of the tiger-hunting team.
"court death!"
A white shadow flashed by.
Speed-enhancing henchmen appeared behind Li Xuelan.
"Since you miss them so much, then go down and keep them company!"
He twirled the dagger in his hand and slashed her neck fiercely!
Blood gushed from Li Xuelan's neck.
She stared in disbelief, her hand weakly reaching out to touch her son.
'Bang'
Just as she was about to touch her son, her henchman kicked her hard in the stomach.
Li Xuelan flew backwards into the bushes and crashed heavily to the ground.
Blood spread beneath her, and she died almost instantly.
"ah!"
Ye Xiaofei and another woman screamed and ran away, scrambling to their feet with their children.
From Li Xuelan's breakdown and questioning to her murder, only half a minute passed.
Her son, Liangzhou, was only five years old and was already terrified by what he saw.
Only when his accomplices grinned and walked towards him did he burst into tears, throwing himself at Li Xuelan's corpse, crying, "Mommy!!!"
"It's so noisy!"
The henchmen had already reached Liangzhou's side, and the still-bloodied dagger was raised once more.
"stop!"
Jiang Nian'an waved her hand and flung out two green leaves.
This group was brought here by those who had previously tried to borrow grain from them; their deaths were entirely their own doing.
But she couldn't bear to watch a child die tragically before her eyes.
After knocking the dagger from the henchman's hand, Cuiye transformed into a vine and pulled Liangzhou to Jiang Nian'an's side.
"You dare to obstruct the Tiger Hunting Team's operations? You're asking for death!"
Jiang Nian'an knocked the dagger away with a single blow, enraging Dang Yu.
He quickly picked up the dagger and, relying on his impressive speed, charged towards Jiang Nian'an.
Shen Nanxing clenched his right hand tightly, and lightning exploded all around.
A powerful electric current exploded in the air, accompanied by a sharp, piercing sound, heading straight for the henchmen.
"Oh no!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, the henchmen quickly withdrew their daggers and retreated hastily.
At the same time, Yunfan and Yunhua launched an attack on Yu Junhao and Ke Songyuan, who were standing outside the gate.
Both the ice blades and water arrows were imbued with lightning power, doubling their strength.
Yu Junhao and his companion's expressions changed, and they quickly retreated.
The three attackers did not pursue the enemy for very long, stopping only outside the gate.
We haven't figured out the opponent's strength yet, so we need to use our special abilities sparingly.
Yu Junhao and the other two had retreated back to the vicinity of the car.
“Four superpowered individuals, one of whom is a lightning-based one,” Dang gripped the dagger in his hand. “Brother, this isn’t going to be easy. Maybe we should just give up—”
"What's there to be afraid of? Five out of the ten of us are superhumans. Even if it's one against one, we'll still have one extra!"
Ke Songyuan couldn't stand his cowardly appearance, glared at him, and then whispered something in Yu Junhao's ear.
“However, this lightning type is indeed difficult to deal with. Why don’t we have Dang Yu use his speed to lure him away, and then you, Big Brother, me, and Gao Zhuo can each take on one of them, while Xiao Jiu leads the rest of the people to seize the supplies.”
Yu Junhao glanced at Shen Nanxing and the other three, then nodded, "Let's try it this way first."
