Vampire vines are like leeches among plants; once you're hooked by their tentacles, they won't let go until they've sucked all your blood dry.
The crowd was buzzing with discussion, but the few people at the center of the storm remained calm.
Han Rui put her hands on her hips and puffed out her cheeks: "I'm not targeting anyone, I just want to say that everyone here is trash in front of Sister Lu."
"You little bitch, you're so young but you've got a big mouth. Let's see what you're really capable of!"
Enraged by being mocked by a teenage girl, the bespectacled man activated his vampire vines, sending their tentacles toward Lu Sheng.
The sharp vines snapped straight up like spears, attacking Lu Sheng's eyes, heart, lower abdomen, and back of the head.
These are the most vulnerable parts of the human body; even if you get hit, you'll be severely injured.
Lu Sheng calmly snapped his fingers, and a bolt of lightning swiftly and cleanly pounced on the vines.
In no time, he tied the vampire vines up tightly.
She had already broken through to the fifth level before entering Qinhuai City.
As the level of one's superpower increases, the difficulty of each breakthrough increases exponentially. The fifth and fourth tiers are completely different dimensions.
When Lu Sheng encounters a fourth-tier ability user, it's like a college student taking down a kindergarten – a complete one-sided annihilation.
"Huh? That's it? That's it?"
Han Rui, undeterred by the spectacle, fanned the flames.
“CN…” The bespectacled man cursed angrily, but after uttering only two syllables, his voice turned into a muffled whimper.
Lu Sheng covered the bundled blood-sucking vines with his left hand, grabbed the bespectacled man's hair, and shoved the vines into his mouth.
The tentacles, which had been ravenously hungry, greedily sucked at the bespectacled man's mouth and tongue, reducing him to skin and bones in just a few seconds.
"If a dog's mouth can't produce ivory, then it should never speak."
Lu Sheng disgustedly tossed the bespectacled man aside and wiped her hands on his clothes.
"Attack together!"
The remaining casino henchmen behind him were instantly enraged and drew their weapons, rushing towards Lu Sheng.
A dozen seconds later, the ground was littered with blood gourds covered in blood.
Lu Sheng bent down and pinched one of the people's shoulder blades, then pulled upwards with his fingers!
Click.
The sound of bones breaking, accompanied by the man's piercing screams, echoed in the room.
Lu Sheng stood up expressionlessly, drew his Tang sword, and severed the tendons in Lu Sheng's hands and feet.
Just now, this person tried to splash the corrosive liquid on Sun Tiantian's face during the chaos, but fortunately, Zhang Xiaojuan blocked it with her earthen shield.
If anyone dares to mess with Sun Tiantian, she'll definitely give them some special treatment.
Private fights are prohibited within Qinhuai City. Minor brawls are fine, but if someone dies, the person could easily be deported.
Therefore, Lu Sheng always acted with restraint, and none of these people died; at most, they were crippled.
She just happened to break a few key joints in this group of people.
"You...you wait! Don't let me find you!"
The middle-aged man who was leading the group had been watching from the sidelines until he saw his henchmen all wiped out. He then scrambled into another small door of the bar.
"Let's go back too, it's getting late."
Lu Sheng packed the crystal core and turned to talk to Sun Tiantian and the others.
The onlookers silently made way for Lu Sheng and his group, no one daring to even breathe loudly, watching them leave as if they were seeing off a plague god.
To get back to the hotel from the bar, they had to walk through a long alley. The group had only gone a few steps into the alley when they heard a series of furtive footsteps following behind them.
Seeing that they were still a few meters away from the alley entrance, Lu Sheng suddenly turned around and grabbed the figure in the corner.
"Little girl, don't hit me!"
The sleazy, hunched figure in the corner gradually emerged; it was none other than the beast who had pawned his wife at the casino.
"Why are you following us!"
Lu Sheng released his hand in disgust and gave him a cold glance.
The man smiled broadly and bowed obsequiously, "Young lady, you just won so much money, could you lend me a little bit?"
"How can you be so shameless? We don't even know you, why would we lend you money!" Han Rui rolled her eyes and retorted loudly.
"Little girl, don't put it so harshly." The man persisted, cautiously moving closer to Lu Sheng. "You've won so much, you can't spend it all in a short time. Just lend me a little as a prize, I'll pay you back as soon as I win!"
"If you could win, you wouldn't be borrowing here," Zhang Xiaojuan retorted mercilessly.
The man, somewhat embarrassed, rubbed his hands awkwardly: "I can sell my wife to you, and my son too! Just give me some crystal cores!"
"You're all young people, you definitely won't do housework. My wife can do it! She's quick and efficient and clean!"
Hearing this, Lu Sheng stopped and looked at the man with a half-smile: "Oh? Name your price and let me hear it."
"20..." The man, seeing Lu Sheng's sharp gaze, nervously changed his answer: "10 crystal cores! Just 10 crystal cores will do!"
"Come and get it."
Lu Sheng took out ten crystal cores from her pocket and waved to the man.
"Thank you, young lady! You are beautiful inside and out!"
The man excitedly ran forward a few steps, took the crystal core from Lu Sheng's hand, and greedily counted it in his palm.
The next second, the gleaming blade plunged straight into the man's flabby abdomen.
"I don't want your wife and son, I'll buy your dog's life with ten crystal cores!"
The man stared in astonishment at the expressionless girl before him, clutching his bleeding abdomen, and staggered a few times before collapsing in the alley.
Even as he breathed his last, he still clutched those ten crystal cores tightly in his hand.
Lu Sheng calmly sheathed his long sword, turned around, and walked out of the dark alley.
She had already disliked this gambling addict when they were at the casino, but she never expected that he would deliberately offer himself up to her.
Consider the ten crystal cores as his farewell money; dying sooner would at least give his wife and son a chance to live.
"Is this guy crazy? He actually dared to borrow money from Sister Lu. He must have lost his mind."
Back at the hotel, Han Rui still couldn't understand what had just happened.
Zhang Xiaojuan cracked sunflower seeds, "Gambling addicts are all crazy. When they're high, if you told them to jump off a building for ten crystal cores, they would jump without hesitation."
"Gambling is really harmful..." Han Rui shuddered, still shaken by the experience.
After a long day of work, everyone was exhausted, so they ate a late-night snack and went to bed early.
After everyone else had turned off their lights, Lu Sheng changed into some casual clothes and secretly slipped out of the hotel.
She spent some crystals and asked the hotel doorman for the address of the casino owner, which turned out to be on the second floor of the arcade.
It's not easy to make a move in a crowded casino today, but that doesn't mean she'll let these scumbags get away with it.
Following the route taken that night, Lu Sheng found the arcade and tiptoed up to the second floor.
Because of acid rain, the whole building was stuffy and damp, and people slept with their room doors open.
Lu Sheng arrived at the first room in the corridor. Just as he stepped into the door, a dark shadow flashed past behind him.
