The instant he fired, Yun Lian plunged her broadsword into the masked man's abdomen, and with her last ounce of strength, kicked the masked man off the building.
When the masked man fell, he grabbed Yun Lian's ankle with all his might. Yun Lian used her knife to block all the obstacles in sight. Zhang Guanglong almost pounced over to barely grab Yun Lian's hand.
"Master, hold on tight to me!"
The masked man had a large wound, and blood was gushing out.
Yun Lian was shot in the shoulder, and her hand fell limply to the side.
The masked man deliberately swung and shook Yun Lian in the air.
"What's the point of saving them? You've already fallen from the building, and no one's coming to save you. Is it worth it?"
After the masked man finished his mockery, the little girl who had been choked by him trembled as she picked up a large knife that was almost as tall as her and swung it at the masked man while she was crying.
"Let go of my sister..."
A faint smile bloomed on Yun Lian's lips.
"Even if it doesn't work out, it's still worth it. But look, she's trying her best."
Tears streamed down the little girl's face, which flushed an unnatural red. Yun Lian was afraid she would fall.
"Don't slash randomly. Throw the knife at him and get to a safe place quickly. I don't need your help here."
The little girl raised her sleeve to wipe away her tears, threw the knife at the masked man, and, not daring to look down, retreated to her original spot without turning her head.
The knife merely grazed the masked man's shoulder, leaving a trail of blood.
Yun Lian kicked the masked man's head and ears with her other leg, each kick delivered with full force. After a short while, the masked man released his grip on Yun Lian's hand and fell to the ground first.
The sound of a heavy object falling to the ground attracted the others. Huo Ye lunged to the spot where Yun Lian might fall, trying to use himself as a human cushion.
At this moment, Mu Chen arrived late with reinforcements.
Yun Lian's hands were a bloody mess, smeared with mud and sand.
As soon as Mu Chen arrived, he saw Yun Lian being lifted up with difficulty. Behind them, a masked man shrouded in a black robe stood up shakily and approached step by step, carrying a large sword.
The distance was too great; Mu Chen couldn't hit it at all.
When Zhang Guanglong's men climbed upstairs, Yun Lian had just been dragged up when she saw the masked man with a knife behind Zhang Guanglong.
He was covered in wounds, and the place where he lay was already stained with blood, but he still got up.
"careful!"
Zhang Guanglong had just breathed a sigh of relief when a knife pierced his chest. He saw a little girl crying uncontrollably beside him, and his master, who was already covered in wounds.
Zhang Guanglong smiled with relief.
"Master, I want to be your apprentice again in my next life."
"don't want!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Guanglong grabbed the masked man and jumped off the building.
He knew that the people he was facing this time were different from the petty thugs he had encountered before; they were all desperate criminals.
When I first started fighting them, I was already prepared that I might not be able to go back.
When she first brought her mentor home, she was mentally prepared for the immense challenge she was facing.
As expected of his master, he's got guts.
Even his enemies were beings he had never seen before.
So when he received the call from his master, all the brothers he brought were people with no ties to them.
So many police officers have perished here, let alone these social outcasts. He has already gained too much in the first half of his life thanks to his master, En Hui.
Leaving now, I have no regrets.
Zhang Guanglong's fleshy face showed a sense of relief.
Yun Lian lunged forward but couldn't even grab a single hair from Zhang Guanglong's head.
The brothers who arrived rushed over drew their knives and began to finish off the masked men on the ground, stabbing them all.
He then went to help Yun Lian.
Yun Lian lay on the edge, listening to the loud bang. She felt her brain buzzing, and the whole world seemed to be filled with only that loud bang playing on a loop.
The taut string snapped, and Yun Lian collapsed, utterly exhausted.
Yun Lian returned to the system space and looked at the scene after she fainted.
The little girl timidly hid beside her, her fingers secretly tugging at her.
All the women and children who were tied up were rescued. Huo Ye was covered in tattered clothes, and the exposed gauze was already stained red with blood.
Song Zhu and she lay side by side on hospital beds receiving emergency treatment. Police found a total of 68 hidden cameras in the abandoned factory.
Those masked men who weren't fatally wounded all bit their fangs and died; the entire army was wiped out, not a single one survived.
Based on the information obtained by Captain Li, Mu Chen discovered that this was a live-streamed killing of police officers.
It's all just to satisfy those perverted and extreme tycoons behind the scenes, and Yun Lian and Song Zhu are their ultimate targets.
"Tongzi, this space of yours is so boring. There's no outdoor screen, and we can't even enjoy the flowers. All we can do is stare at your crappy little computer all day. When are you going to upgrade it?"
The system huddled at the foot of the sofa, trembling.
"I will definitely level up once the host completes the mission in this world."
Yun Lian pulled out a bunch of melon seeds from somewhere and started cracking them open with a carefree expression.
"System, are you sure this is a beginner mission? Don't you have any newbie protection mechanisms?"
When the topic turned to a specialized area, the system immediately perked up, its drowsy mind suddenly sparking with inspiration.
"Yes! The danger the host is currently facing is completely beyond the beginner world. System will check the screen recording and report to the main system to try to get compensation and points for the host."
Yun Lian's eyelashes trembled slightly.
"And what about this injury?"
Although her original intention was to save Song Zhu, the scheme set up by those people was actually aimed at her; it was just a coincidence that Song Zhu stumbled upon it.
If Song Zhu hadn't happened to be investigating the case and stumbled upon it, this plan might not have been to kill the police, but rather to torture and kill her alone.
The system recorded what the masked man said and unconsciously felt happy.
"The system has already reported that the host has encountered such an S-level terrifying danger. Both mental and physical damage will be reported to the main system. Please do not worry, and wait patiently in the system space until your body can accept your soul before leaving."
Yun Lian looked at the three people who were lying down in reality, and then lay down as well.
The operating room lights for her and Song Zhu had been on all day. Huo Ye's wound had relapsed, and with the addition of new injuries, he was also successfully admitted to a ward.
What's even stranger is that Yun Lian actually saw the original owner's mother and younger brother also come to the hospital.
They passed by the ambulance, the original owner's mother beaming with joy, and Yun Jin also looking excited.
"Master, check what's going on with Yun Jin lately."
The little system says "oh" and obediently performs the query.
"Yun Jin broke up with the girl before, and while drinking in despair, he met a naive junior. The two couldn't help themselves, and the girl is now pregnant."
They just left the ward; they're probably going to prepare food for the girl now.
simple?
Why is she so disbelieving?
"What is the girl's family background like? Has she had any dealings with Yun Jin before?"
“She comes from a well-off family and is an only child. Both her parents hold important positions in the company. Yun Jin has already met her parents, and they are all very satisfied with her.”
I'd met Yun Jin a few times before in the club.
Yun Lian suddenly laughed.
She comes from a wealthy family, is an only child, and has fallen for Yun Jin after only a few meetings. How can she not believe it?
If it's a case of someone taking over a bad investment, or someone leaving the child while the father leaves, that would be really interesting.
"I wonder how interesting it would be if she knew that I was once next door to her when I died."
