Chapter 222 As long as the face remains, the country remains.
"Zheng—!"
A golden streak of light struck the tip of the Fire-Tipped Spear.
The girl's hand trembled, and the gunshot shook the air.
"Young Master!" The burly man rushed towards the center of the crowd as if he had seen a savior.
The young man surrounded by people waved his hand casually.
The situation on the field became clear in an instant.
The girl with the fire-tipped spear flashed and retreated to her companion's side—a boy whose features resembled hers.
Gu Wan: "I never imagined such a cool girl would have a male version!"
He Zhuo crossed his arms: "Miss Gu, what can I say about you? You fall in love with every girl you see?"
Gu Wan rolled her eyes: "In my current state, I'd be lucky if I didn't fall in love with anyone, let alone stab anyone."
He Zhuo hid behind Gu Qi: "Gu Qi, look at Gu Wanwan, she's threatening me again!"
Gu Qi didn't even turn his head: "Old He, you've already done things you shouldn't have done, so don't bother saying sorry!"
He Zhuo: "Old Gu..."
Gu Wan raised an eyebrow and pointed at Gu Qi: "Gu Qi."
Then, pointing to himself, he said, "Gu Wan...our own sibling! Thank you!"
He Zhuo: "...Hey, look, friendship is like a plate of sand, it scatters without even a breeze!"
Holding binoculars, Ji Xian said, "They're about to make their move!"
Gu Wan leaned closer to Lu Nange: "Nannan, which side is the good guy?"
Lu Nange pointed to several figures fleeing in panic at a street corner in the distance: "The handsome older sister you like is probably saving someone."
Gu Wan: "A true hero! I knew it! What bad intentions could such a pretty woman have?"
She glanced disdainfully at the man across the street: "And look at that slick-haired guy over there—wearing sunglasses and trying to look cool in the middle of the night, his floral shirt wrinkled like pickled vegetables, so sleazy, he's got the classic villain look!"
......
Inside the street, the man surrounded by others looked at the boy beside the girl with the fire-tipped spear: "Jiang Zhiwang, our Guo family and your Jiang family have always kept to ourselves. Now you're messing with someone from my Guo family. Does your father know?"
Jiang Zhiwang: "Guo Chi, is it only your Guo family that's allowed to bully the weak? Is it not allowed for our Jiang family to stand up for justice?"
He gave a defiant smile: "I've already killed them, what can you do about it?"
"You...!" A fierce glint flashed in Guo Chi's eyes.
Jiang Zhiwang interrupted him directly: "Guo Chi, you're not an eco-friendly bag, all you do is stuff and stuff all day long."
His voice suddenly rose: "Always putting on airs! Who in the whole city doesn't know that you can't even handle a zombie without your father?"
Guo Chi raised his hands slightly and beckoned with his fingers: "You're asking for death. Kill them all..."
"Young Master, you mustn't!" The middle-aged man beside Guo Chi hurriedly stopped him.
Guo Chi straightened his floral shirt collar and said with a sinister smile, "Uncle Yin, don't forget my dad told you to listen to me. Don't worry, what are we afraid of with just a few of them? When Jiang Zhiwang and Jiang Zhian are both dead, who will know it was us who did it?"
Jiang Zhian looked at Jiang Zhiwang: "I'll cover you for a bit, then you go back..."
Jiang Zhiwang: "Sister, if we need to go back and get reinforcements, you should go. There are no cowards in our Jiang family."
"Miss, the young master is right. You should leave quickly; we'll hold them off here."
Guo Chi burst into laughter: "What? Trying to escape now? Too late!"
He waved his hand sharply: "Uncle Yin, surround them!"
The middle-aged man sighed, a golden aura of supernatural power emanating from his palm: "...Make your move."
More than thirty people with superpowers surrounded and forced the nine people to the center of the street.
Jiang Zhiwang's golden staff swept across the ground, sending sparks flying: "We'll break out to the south in a bit. I'll try to take Guo Chi hostage. Sister, go back to the car and get the walkie-talkie to call for backup."
"Ah Sheng, go!" Jiang Zhi'an pointed his spear directly at the south: "You're the fastest!"
Jiang Zhiwang: "Sister..."
"Only if my siblings and I join forces..." Jiang Zhi'an's spearhead flamed with flames, "will we have a chance of winning!"
Nine men, back to back, attacked from the south.
Seeing this, Uncle Yin's hand flashed with golden light: "Three of you form a formation and surround and kill those small fry! The rest of you—"
He leaped into the air, his metal-based supernatural power transforming into flying blades: "Follow me and kill the Jiang siblings."
"Received, Uncle Yin."
Uncle Yin landed directly in front of the Jiang siblings: "Excuse me, Young Master Jiang, Miss Jiang."

On the third-floor balcony, Shi Xu hung on the railing like a large sloth, his head swaying from side to side in rhythm with the fighting below.
"LuLu~ BeiBei~" he drawled, "When are we going down to play?"
Lu Beiye: "Let's go down after we finish fighting down there..."
"LuLu!" Shi Xu suddenly turned around: "I can—"
Lu Nange: "You can't..."
Shi Xu immediately deflated, resting his chin on the railing and muttering softly, "Oh..."
He Zhuo: "Sigh, the heavy responsibility of taking care of the kids has actually fallen on eighteen-year-old Mei Bao and eight-year-old A Ye..."
Lu Beiye: "Brother Zhuo, instead of offering empty words of comfort, why not take on the important task?"
He Zhuo chuckled and took two steps back: "Aye, it's not that I don't want to, it's just that Shi Xu is such a brat. When it comes to force, he suppresses me with his mental power and even hits me. When I try to reason with him, he just spouts nonsense..."
Shi Xu turned to He Zhuo and said, "You...you're so noisy, it gives me a headache!"
He Zhuo... died suddenly!
"I'm actually at the bottom of the food chain in this family!"
Gu Qi: "The clown is yourself!"
Looking at the handsome young woman surrounded downstairs, Gu Wan felt a little worried: "I can't stand bullying the weak, Nan Nan, should we go and do something heroic too?"
Lu Nange: "You're pretending to be a hero, aren't you? You really just want to fight, right? You're this happy just because you leveled up your superpower by three levels?"
"Of course!" Gu Wan's eyes blazed with fighting spirit: "I'd like to fight every day, once I reach level four, level five..."
She suddenly leaned closer: "Then I can protect you."
He Zhuo: "Gu Wanwan, if you put it that way, then this fight is inevitable! I also want to protect my little sister!"
Lu Beiye: "Sister, you're very strong. You don't need your protection. Besides, you have me!"
Lu Xici looked at He Zhuo: "I'm still breathing!"
Shi Xu: "Lulu and Beibei are mine!"
Gu Wan sighed, rubbing her forehead. "I was just too young back then!"
Luo Xingyou glanced at Shi Xu: "It's not that bad. As long as you have face, you'll have power!"
Chi Yanzhou put down his binoculars and said, "If we don't go now, those two are going to be dead!"
Gu Wan: "You agreed?"
The group exchanged glances and nodded in unison.
"Charge!" Gu Wan rushed into the stairwell first.
The others followed closely behind. Shi Xu even tried to jump off the balcony, but Lu Beiye and Lu Nange grabbed his clothes at the same time.
Chi Yanzhou grabbed Shi Xu by the back of his collar and led him toward the stairwell.
