The air in the alley was frozen and filled with a strong smell of gunpowder.
Bandit leader Fang grinned and waved the machete in his hand: "You little bastards, you are quite brave! Today, grandpa will teach you how to be a good man!"
"It's not certain who will teach whom!" Mou Xuan curled his lips into a sneer, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.
He was not a vegetarian in his previous life, so this little fuss was just child's play.
The robbers rushed forward, swords flashing, and shouts of killing shook the sky.
Mou Xuan's figure was like a ghost. He knocked down several people while dodging and moving around.
He was ruthless and every move was deadly. Every punch and kick was as powerful as thunder. The robbers flew away like pieces of paper, and wailing sounds rang out one after another.
Chen Yao was not idle either. Although she did not have the same strong fighting ability as Mou Xuan, she was agile and could always provide support to Mou Xuan at critical moments.
The dagger in her hand flashed with cold light, and she targeted the enemy's weak points, with perfect coordination.
"Boss, this guy is weird!" Cui the bandit's henchman shouted in fear, covering his bleeding arm.
The bandit leader Fang also felt something was wrong. This kid's skills were definitely not ordinary!
A hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, and he roared, "Come on! Whoever kills him will have his reward doubled!"
There will always be brave men when there is a big reward. The robbers became red-eyed and rushed towards Mou Xuan without caring about their lives.
However, in the face of absolute strength, everything is in vain.
Mou Xuan's eyes were cold, like an awakened beast.
He grabbed the robber who was rushing towards him, lifted him above his head like a chicken, and slammed him to the ground.
There was a loud bang and the ground shook.
He took a deep breath, and his aura surged. An invisible force spread out from him...
"Now, it's my turn."
Mou Xuan's eyes were as sharp as a knife, his body was as fast as lightning, and his fists and feet made a sound of wind, pouring out like a violent storm.
"Bang, bang, bang!" A series of dull impact sounds rang out, and several bandits flew out like broken sacks, falling heavily to the ground, wailing.
Before the bandit leader Fang could react, Mou Xuan hit him in the face with a heavy punch. The sound of his broken nose was clearly audible, and blood gushed out. He collapsed to the ground like a puddle of mud, completely losing his ability to fight.
"The boss has been defeated! Run!" Upon seeing this, Cui's bandit henchmen were so frightened that they turned around and ran away.
The other robbers also scattered like birds and beasts, running away in fear that if they ran too slowly they would be caught up by Mou Xuan.
"Good! Good fight!" The residents of the surrounding Hong Town burst into warm cheers. They had been bullied by the bandits before and dared not speak out. Now seeing Mou Xuan being so brave, the pent-up resentment in their hearts was finally released.
Policeman Zou also clenched his fists excitedly. Although he wanted to protect the residents of the town, he was powerless and alone. Now with Mou Xuan's help, he could finally hold his head high.
The battle is over and the dust has settled.
Chen Yao looked at Mou Xuan standing in the crowd, with a strange light flashing in her eyes.
This man is not only strong, but also brave and fearless. He is like a mountain, protecting her from wind and rain and giving her a sense of security.
I was just curious before, but now I feel more admiration, and...
A trace of emotion that is hard to explain.
Mou Xuan also noticed Chen Yao's gaze. He smiled at her and said, "Are you okay?"
Shen Yao's cheeks flushed slightly and she shook her head: "I'm fine, thank you."
"What are you thanking me for? It's just a small favor." Mou Xuan waved his hand, looked at Chen Yao with deep eyes, paused, and then said, "Let's go..."
As the sun sets, the golden afterglow spreads across the earth, dyeing the streets of the town a warm orange.
Mou Xuan and Shen Yao walked side by side on the way back to the safe house. The relaxed atmosphere diluted the tension of the previous battle.
"I didn't expect you to be so skilled. You're simply a hidden master!" Chen Yao's tone was filled with a hint of ridicule, but her eyes and eyebrows revealed admiration that could not be concealed.
Mou Xuan chuckled, "Keep a low profile, just basic operations, basic operations. Life forces me to do this." He pretended to be nonchalant, but he was secretly happy in his heart. What's wrong with a reborn person pretending to be cool?
The two chatted as they walked, and Chen Yao recounted her experience of struggling to survive in the apocalypse, which made Mou Xuan sigh.
This girl looks petite and weak, but I didn't expect her to be so strong inside.
"Luckily I met you, otherwise I really don't know what to do." Chen Yao's voice lowered, with a hint of sob.
Mou Xuan patted her shoulder gently and said, "Don't be afraid. I will protect you from now on." This simple sentence made Chen Yao feel warm in her heart.
She raised her head and looked at Mou Xuan with burning eyes, her eyes full of tenderness.
After returning to the safe house, Mou Xuan checked carefully and found that the supplies were intact.
He breathed a sigh of relief, finally saving his hard work.
"Great, everything is fine!" Chen Yao also breathed a sigh of relief and a bright smile appeared on her face.
Seeing Chen Yao's happy expression, Mou Xuan's mood also became particularly happy.
He took out some food and drinks from the space, "Let's celebrate!"
"Okay!" Chen Yao cheered, took the drink handed to her by Mou Xuan and drank it all in one gulp.
The two of them were talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was relaxed and pleasant.
Suddenly, Mou Xuan's eyes fell on Chen Yao's neck, where there was a strange mark, like a blooming lotus, but with a faint hint of weird aura.
Mou Xuan's expression suddenly became serious. "The one on your neck..."
