Chapter 260 Villains usually die from talking too much...
"Whoosh—"
Five cyan wind blades tore through the air and struck the backs of the five men.
Amidst the splattering of blood and flesh, the spine of the leading man with the mole was exposed.
Immediately following a sharp "smack," the triangular-eyed man was slapped in mid-air, and half of his face instantly swelled up like a pig's head.
"Ah! Which bastard..."
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Three golden darts pierced her mouth, forever pinning the unuttered profanities to her throat.
The next second, the triangular-eyed man's brains exploded.
Lu Xici ruffled Lu Beiye's hair: "This mouth speaks with logic straight from the gut to the brain, so keeping it around is really useless."
Lu Xici turned around: "A Xu is great too..."
Behind his goggles, Shi Xu's face flushed and paled in turns, and he felt like he was digging a three-bedroom apartment out of his shoes... [How could someone lose face like this?]
At that moment, the man with the mole and his accomplices charged towards Lu Nange and her group—"Boom!"
Lightning struck from the sky, and amidst the stench of burning flesh, five charred corpses, still in a running posture, crashed to the ground.
......
Shen Mianmian, who had already left, suddenly ran back, veins bulging on her forehead, her eyes filled with a hint of panic.
Behind her followed dozens of wounded survivors and angry roars: "Chen Mianmian, you bitch, stop right there!"
As she ran, Chen Mianmian manipulated the vines to lash backward, the green vines dancing wildly in the air like whips.
Amidst the "slap slap" of the whip, several streaks of blood splattered in the darkness.
"You bastard who bullies the few, come and fight me one-on-one if you dare!" she shouted until her voice was hoarse.
Lu Nange and the others rushed out to meet her in the direction she had run from. As Zhizhi's searchlight turned around, the survivors behind her also turned around, their eyes filled with vigilance.
The group chasing after Chen Mianmian slowed down as they saw the oncoming crowd and exchanged glances.
The man with the bulbous nose wiped the blood from his face and whispered to the leader, "Brother Shu, this situation isn't right. Let's retreat. We can talk about it another time." His voice clearly showed his intention to back down.
Brother Shu's eyes flashed with murderous intent: "Withdraw? That bitch killed my brother! How can I swallow this insult if I don't tear her to pieces today? That bastard Shen Yanyi isn't with this bitch today, and these people look completely unfamiliar; they don't seem to be from the Qingyun Base..."
A maniacal smile played on his lips: "Today, I will kill her and make my brother pay! Those of you who are afraid to die, get out of here..."
Chen Mianmian stood in front of Lu Nange and the others, supporting herself on her knees, her chest heaving violently.
Her clothes were torn in several places, and blood seeped from the wounds, but her eyes remained defiant.
Lu Nange caught the swaying Chen Mianmian: "What happened?"
Heaving, panting heavily, sweat mixed with blood dripping from his chin: "Damn it, I ran into those mad dogs from the Crimson Flame Base..."
She spat angrily: "I ran into this bunch of bastards as soon as I went out. There were too many of them, so I had to run back..."
A hint of guilt flashed in his eyes: "I'm sorry for causing you trouble."
The man with the bulbous nose across from them stepped forward: "Hey, you over there, this is our Brother Tree, the second-in-command of the Crimson Flame Base! Even though you outnumber us, we're all level two or three ability users! If you don't want to die, hand over that bitch Chen Mianmian, and we'll let you go!"
Before she could finish speaking, more than a dozen survivors suddenly rushed out from behind Lu Nange and ran towards the enemy camp without looking back.
"Brother Tree..."
"Brother Wen..."
The man with the bulbous nose—the one known as "Brother Wen"—squinted at the dozen or so people who surged towards them: "Potatoes? Intestines?...What are you all doing here?"
The tall, thin guy nicknamed Potato limped to the front: "Brother Wen, we were buried by the earthquake and almost met our end! When we crawled out, we found everyone following this bright light. We couldn't tell which way was which, so we just followed them."
Intestines: "Yeah, those leaders are really scum. They ate bread and drank water right in front of us and didn't even share with us..."
The people present—what a huge face!
Lu Nange scoffed, "Truly, you're turning your back on me..."
Shi Xu chimed in, his tone laced with disdain: "Half shameless, half thick-skinned."
Lu Nange and the others all turned to look at him at the same time...
Chi Yanzhou raised an eyebrow: "Shi Xu..."
Shi Xu... [Shut up, who told you to answer so quickly!]
Intestines' face instantly turned a deep liver color: "You...you all..."
Glancing at Wen Ge and Shu Ge beside him, he felt emboldened again: "Say it again if you dare!"
Brother Tree waved his hand impatiently: "Stop with the 'you' and 'me' stuff."
His gaze swept over the crowd that had run towards him: "I'm asking you..."
Intestines immediately suppressed their arrogance: "Brother Tree, please speak."
Tree Brother's cold gaze swept over Lu Nange and her group like a venomous snake: "None of you recognize them?"
Intestines, Potatoes, and the other people who ran over all shook their heads: "Don't know them!"
Brother Tree nodded in satisfaction.
He suddenly raised his voice, which echoed through the ruins: "Listen up, you over there! We're from the Crimson Flame Base! You've all heard of me, Yang Shu!"
He pointed at Chen Mianmian: "Today I'm going to kill this bitch and avenge my brother!"
Shen Mianmian's eyes were bloodshot: "That beast Yang Lin, he deserves to die... He raped me before I awakened my superpowers, even tearing him to pieces wouldn't be enough for him!"
Yang Shu: "Damn it? Good riddance. Chen Mianmian, you're the one who deserves to die today. Listen up, if you're not one of them, come over here now to avoid being caught in the crossfire..."
He grinned, revealing a sinister smile: "Of course, I, Yang Shu, am not an unreasonable person. If you don't want to get involved and want to protect yourselves, you can retreat to my right..."
Before she could finish speaking, a flurry of footsteps could be heard behind Lu Nange and her group.
Huang Tao felt the figures around him swaying, and in the blink of an eye, the originally crowded group of survivors dispersed like the receding tide, leaving him standing alone in the same spot.
Yang Shu looked at Lu Nange and the others who remained where they were: "I'm giving you one last chance. Give me Chen Mianmian, and you can leave. Otherwise... none of you will live!"
Shen Mianmian's face was pale, but her eyes remained firm.
She nudged Lu Nange's shoulder: "Nannan, you guys go first, don't worry about me. Anyway, I've had enough of this awful life..."
Lu Nange remained motionless, instead taking half a step forward: "There's a classic saying I don't know if you've heard before?"
She looked up at the poplar tree, a defiant smile playing on her lips: "Villains usually die from talking too much..."
Yang Shu: "You're asking for it! Brothers... attack!"
Lu Nange raised her arms slightly, and in an instant, sand and stones flew everywhere.
A raging hurricane formed around her, whipping up blades of wind that swept towards the oncoming group of people, including Yang Shu...
Lu Beiye: "Brother, put me down..."
