Lin Yusheng used all her strength to break free from their grasp and crashed into Cao Da.
Ahead lay a balcony without any railings. With a determination to die together with him, Lin Yusheng nearly knocked Cao Da off the balcony.
Unfortunately, she lacked strength. Cao Da suddenly grabbed her hair, causing Lin Yusheng to lean back and stop moving. She couldn't help but cry out in pain.
Cao Da, still shaken, roared, "Are you fucking crazy?"
If she weren't still somewhat useful, he would have loved to torture her.
Wei Qingxin, on the other end of the phone, was alarmed. He said urgently, "Cao Da, don't hurt her."
Cao Da gritted his teeth, his face contorted with rage, and threw Lin Yusheng back into his men's hands. "What use are you if you can't even keep an eye on one person?"
The subordinate lowered his head and dared not speak, gripping Lin Yusheng's hand even tighter.
Lin Yusheng broke down in tears, shouting, "Wei Qing, tell Lu Zhengye to leave me alone."
Wei Qing hurriedly said, "Miss Lin, please calm down. Mr. Lu is waiting to see you again."
Although Lin Yusheng did not want Lu Zhengye to appear, she was still comforted by his words, and she also wanted to see him.
"Ha! Bring the boat over here. Only Lu Zhengye can come aboard."
After speaking to Wei Qing, he reached out and patted Lin Yusheng's face, "Don't worry, I'll give you time to catch up with him."
Lin Yusheng turned her face away with disgust.
Cao Da was in a good mood because the plan went even more smoothly than he had expected, and he didn't bother to argue with her.
The ship is about to dock.
At that moment, a tall but hunched man ran up the stairs, shouting anxiously, "Boss, something bad has happened! They're trying to trick us!"
Lin Yusheng was stunned when she heard the voice. Even though he was trying to disguise it, she could still tell that it was Lu Zhengye's voice.
Cao Da's men were already terrified of Lu Zhengye and Gui Xing, and upon hearing this, they all became wary and pointed their guns at the boat that was about to dock.
Even Cao Da became wary, asking, "What's the trap?"
The man raised his head, his face disguised. His originally upturned eyes were now drooping downwards, and for a moment when he looked down, he was almost unrecognizable as Lu Zhengye.
Cao Da's expression changed; he never expected that Lu Zhengye would appear here.
Lin Yusheng also had mixed feelings; she hadn't expected them to meet in this way.
As soon as Cao Da realized what was happening, he raised the gun in his hand and pointed it at Lu Zhengye.
But Lu Zhengye was clearly faster. He raised his hand and grabbed Cao Da's wrist. With a slight twist, the gun in Cao Da's hand fell into Lu Zhengye's hand, and this time the dark muzzle was pointed at Cao Da's head.
Cao Da felt a chill run down his spine, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
This turn of events happened so fast that no one present could react in time.
After the people of Puyazhuang reacted, they all raised their guns and pointed them at Lu Zhengye, shouting, "Release our boss!"
"Hurry up, or we'll kill her."
A gun was also pointed at Lin Yusheng's head.
Lu Zhengye finally turned his attention to Lin Yusheng.
As their eyes met, Lin Yusheng could clearly sense the difference in Lu Zhengye's gaze.
She was heartbroken and wanted to explain, but she didn't know where to begin.
Lu Zhengye said coldly, "Release them."
"Impossible, Lu Zhengye. If you kill me, I'll make your woman pay with her life. Even in hell, I'll torture her and make her wish she were dead," Cao Da said through gritted teeth.
Lin Yusheng was in a sorry state, her collar torn by Cao Da so wide that her fair and thin shoulders were visible.
She's thinner than before, and...
Lu Zhengye's forehead veins bulged. The thought of her spending so many days alone in Cao Da's hands nearly drove him to the brink of collapse.
A surge of immense rage, heartache, and self-reproach welled up within him, then expanded infinitely, ultimately dragging him into hell.
He fired a shot directly into Cao Da's thigh. Cao Da cried out in pain and fell to his knees. Everyone in the room took a step back.
To them, Lu Zhengye was like the King of Hell; his every move was unpredictable, and no one knew whether the next shot would hit them.
Cao Da trembled with pain. He shouted at his underlings, "Shoot his woman. If he kills me, you all kill them too."
Lu Zhengye roared, "Let's see who dares!"
The person who originally intended to shoot Lin Yusheng was so frightened that his legs went weak and he dared not move his hands.
Lu Zhengye stomped Cao Da to the ground, his leather shoe grinding against his face. He said mercilessly, "Anyone who dares to touch her, I'll lock you in the Ghost Walk's dungeon and feed you ten pieces of flesh to the tigers every day, making you wish you were dead."
Everyone was shocked. They thought Lu Zhengye was capable of such cruel torture. They looked at each other and took a step back.
Cao Da looked incredulous and furious. "You bunch of cowards! He's just one person at most. What are you afraid of? Go get him! Even if I die, I'll make him come down and keep me company!"
Lu Zhengye ignored his shouts and fired a shot directly outside.
As the ship was about to dock, a number of people wearing bulletproof vests appeared in an orderly fashion. They were all equipped with the same weapons. Although there were fewer people than in Puyazhuang, each of them looked very capable.
These are the Ghost Walk elites who went to Lucheng with Lu Zhengye. They have all returned, which means that Lu Zhengye's plan in Lucheng has failed.
"Open your eyes and look, do you think I'm a person or not?"
Ultimately, Ghost Walker still holds the greatest power on Slave Island, and many people in Puyai Village have already laid down their weapons and surrendered.
Now that their leader has become his stepping stone, what's the point of their resistance?
Even if they kill Lu Zhengye today, they will not be able to escape Gui Xing's pursuit in the future.
Seeing this, Cao Da continued to curse, but he couldn't stop everyone from valuing their lives.
Lu Zhengye said to the people next to Lin Yusheng, "Untie her ropes."
The man did as instructed.
Lin Yusheng had been tied up for who knows how many days. Even after the ropes were untied, her hands were already red and purple from being tied up, and even the slightest movement caused an excruciating numbness.
Seeing that she was still standing there in a daze, Lu Zhengye said coldly, "Aren't you coming over?"
Lin Yusheng gritted her teeth and moved to his side.
When they were still a few steps apart, Lu Zhengye simply wrapped his long arm around her and pulled her into his arms.
Only at this moment did he feel at peace.
Lin Yusheng hadn't showered for many days, and she could smell the odor on her body. She didn't want Lu Zhengye to see her like this.
“I can stand on my own.” Lin Yusheng gave him a shove.
Lu Zhengye's face darkened, and he felt an indescribable pain in his heart.
If the occasion weren't so inappropriate, he really wouldn't have been able to resist loudly questioning her: Why?
Lu Zhengye released Lin Yusheng, his anger finding no outlet.
