Chapter 227 You're just unlucky.
Below, Jiang Zhian and his group were running at full speed.
Gangzi flapped its wings at a constant speed, always keeping a distance that was neither too close nor too far from the ground team, leading the way for Lu Nange and the others.
As the macaw hovered in mid-air, the noise below was already clearly audible—
"Hand over the people! Or I'll raze your base to the ground!" a hoarse male voice roared angrily.
"We've never even seen your son!" another voice retorted.
With the help of the searchlights outside the base, a chaotic scene of two groups of people confronting each other in front of the gate could already be seen.
Guo He, his face contorted with rage, pointed at the Jiang family's gate: "Jiang Jing! My son's location signal is right here in your base! If you don't hand him over today, I'll massacre your entire base!"
Jiang Jing stood motionless on the steps, but his finger twitched behind his back: [Go check quickly and see if that bastard Guo Chi has any tracking device on him!]
He didn't stop until he saw a figure behind him starting to back away.
His voice was cold as he continued, "Guo He, this is the last time—your son isn't here!"
"You're asking for it!" Guo He roared, "Attack! Break in!"
"Let's see who dares!"
Jiang Zhian's fire-tipped spear plunged into the ground, its shaft humming and vibrating, and a wave of intense heat drew a dividing line between the two sides.
Jiang Zhiwang swept his golden staff horizontally, creating a sharp whooshing sound. The brother and sister stood like an impregnable wall in front of the base, their fighting spirit awe-inspiring.
"Just a few more brats like you," Guo He grinned maliciously, cracking his knuckles. "You really think you can change anything? Naïve!"
Jiang Jing stood with his hands behind his back, his voice steady: "Guo He, don't forget the agreement between the military and our two families..."
Guo He kicked away a pile of pebbles at his feet, his face contorted with rage: "Jiang Jing, stop trying to reason with me! I'm asking you one last time, are you going to hand over the person or not? No—"
He waved his hands dismissively: "I'll just have to lead this group of superhumans, destroy your base, and then go in and find it myself!"
The tattooed man next to Guo He scoffed, "A bunch of cowards, hurry up and hand over our young master!"
Jiang Zhiwang flicked his wrist, and the golden staff instantly split into dozens of golden darts, which pierced the air and attacked the tattooed man: "You really are relying on your master's power, like a dog!"
"Clang clang clang—"
The earthen shield that the tattooed man hastily erected was riddled with thorns, and the golden dart was deeply embedded in the ground, causing him to stagger back three steps.
Guo He's gaze swept over the people at the Jiang family base: "I was too lazy to deal with you before, but since you're courting death, don't blame me for being ruthless..."
He suddenly gave a sinister smile, turned around, and said, "Listen up—" He raised his voice, "Today, the Jiang Clan base was attacked by a horde of zombies. By the time we arrive..." He slashed his neck with his hand, "Not a single one will be spared!"
The tattooed man licked his lips, staring greedily at Jiang Zhian: "Boss, those girls at the base..."
"Destroy the Jiang family." Guo He grinned maliciously, "The women are yours to play with!"
"You filthy trash, I'll string you all together like candied hawthorns!" Jiang Zhi'an's fire-tipped spear burst into flames, shooting straight for the tattooed man's heart like a meteor!
The two groups of superpowered individuals instantly clashed, their energies colliding and sparks flying everywhere.
With no buildings on either side, in the darkness where no one noticed, a golden platform silently rose from the ground.
Several figures stood on the edge, watching the chaotic battle unfold not far away.
He Zhuo: "The Jiang family isn't ruthless enough in their actions."
Gu Wan: "If you want to help, just say so. Those Guo family members, whose heads are full of lewd nonsense, deserve to die..."
Lu Nange's eyes turned cold, and with a slight lift of her fingertips, a wind blade was unleashed!
"Whoosh—!"
Blood splattered, and the arms of the Guo family's superhuman fell to the ground.
He froze for a moment, then let out a heart-wrenching scream: "Ah—!"
Gu Wan: "Well done! No wonder you're my Nan Nan! That beast was utterly despicable towards female ability users!"
Luo Xingyou glanced at the two arms on the ground with disgust, her tone icy: "Targeting women's breasts? Trash is trash."
The Guo family, these mad dogs, kill without a second thought, but when it comes to female superhumans—they not only want to kill them, but also humiliate them, resorting to despicable methods.
Gu Wan's knuckles cracked as she clenched her fists: "Nan Nan, Brother Yan Zhou, can I go and tear them apart?"
Gu Qi: [Gu Wanwan, have you forgotten that your own brother is here too?]
He Zhuo: "Mei Bao, Yan Ge, these bastards are a waste of air and an eyesore just to be alive. Should we kill them?"
Lu Nange called out, "Aye."
The golden platform crumbled instantly.
A dozen or so figures appeared in the light.
Jiang Jing was the first to notice; all he saw were unfamiliar faces.
The vines in his hand instinctively wrapped around the enemy's throat.
Before the cracking sound of bones breaking had even faded, he flashed to the side of Jiang Zhiwang, who was closest to him.
As the wooden vines bound the superpowered individual in front of Jiang Zhiwang, Jiang Zhiwang shattered the other's cervical vertebrae with his golden staff.
Jiang Jing: "A-Wang, take your sister and leave. You all go and notify the base to evacuate immediately."
Jiang Zhiwang slammed his golden cudgel heavily on the ground: "Dad, I'm not leaving."
Jiang Jing: "Now is not the time to play the hero. The Guo family has sent reinforcements with superpowered individuals. So many lives are at the base, hurry!"
The boy's Adam's apple bobbed violently, and his red-rimmed eyes churned with resentment.
Finally, he managed to squeeze out a few words through gritted teeth: "Dad, you must wait for me to come back!"
As Jiang Zhiwang ran towards his sister, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure flashing across the intersection.
He instantly forgot he was on a battlefield, laughing like a complete idiot and waving: "Hey, you guys..."
He recalled how Liu Fang and the others addressed Lu Nange's group: "Big Bosses!"
Completely unaware of the sharp blade emerging from the shadows behind him.
"boom--!"
A bolt of purple lightning cleaved the heavens and earth, and the smell of burning instantly filled the air.
Jiang Zhiwang then turned around and saw a charred corpse twitching at his feet, with electric arcs still crackling.
"Thanks," Jiang Zhiwang said, looking at the knife gradually dissipating beside the corpse.
Jiang Jing: "A-Wang, what are you standing there for? Didn't you hear what I just said?"
Jiang Zhiwang snapped out of his daze: "I understand, Dad!"
He turned to Lu Nange and the others and said, "Guys, I have to go take care of something. You guys need to leave quickly, it's dangerous here..."
He Zhuo glanced at the battlefield: "Those in normal uniforms are your people, and those in colorful clothes are from the Guo family?"
Jiang Zhiwang nodded: "Yes!"
Gu Wan: "Understood."
Before the words were even finished, He Zhuo and Gu Wan had already rushed into the crowd.
Luo Xingyou, Gu Qi, Chi Yi, and Ji Xian followed closely behind.
Shi Xu tugged at Lu Nange's sleeve: "Lu Lu..."
Lu Nange pointed ahead: "The one in the floral dress..."
Shi Xu: "Bao...Xu Xu knows, the one in the flowery clothes is a bad guy, everyone else stay away!"
After receiving permission, he turned and called out, "Beibei, let's go together!"
Lu Beiye: "I'm not going."
Shi Xu: "Okay, I'll go by myself!" The sadness lasted only a second before he cheerfully rushed into the crowd!
The tide of battle turned in an instant.
Guo He's face turned ashen: "Who...who exactly are you people?"
He Zhuo: "Don't ask, just answer: We're taking your people!"
"I don't know you!" Guo He said through gritted teeth.
Gu Wan sneered, "Consider yourself unlucky. We just can't stand people who wear floral clothes."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhian and Jiang Zhiwang couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Guo He glanced around at his heavily wounded men, his face grim. "Jiang Jing, I'll ask you one last time: is my son in your base?"
"Not here!" Jiang Jing said decisively.
Guo He gritted his teeth: "Fine, I believe you."
He turned to lead his men away: "Let's go!"
"Chi Yi," Chi Yanzhou called out coldly.
"Zhizhi." Lu Nange said at the same time.
In an instant, countless vines burst forth from the ground, tightly binding the remaining people in flowery clothes.
Chi Yanzhou stepped forward slowly, his voice icy: "Did we agree to let you leave?"
