The moment they heard Jin Xuyan's voice and saw his smile, a chill ran down their spines. No matter how gentle his smile appeared, they only felt fear and terror when they faced him.
Kneeling on the ground, the big-armed man clutched his hand as blood flowed from the wound to the ground.
Since his fingers were completely burned, it was impossible to reattach them. No matter how strong he had been, without fingers, he could no longer form a proper fist or hold a weapon—rendering him useless.
He looked at Jin Xuyan with hatred, but he didn't dare act recklessly. With just one move, Jin Xuyan had crippled his power. From that alone, he knew it was impossible for them to defeat him. Since he couldn't use force, he could only rely on schemes.
After a moment, he raised his head and said, "Brother, please spare us. We only wanted to survive and didn't have any bad intentions."
Hearing this, Jin Xuyan chuckled and said, "Didn't have any bad intentions—yet you dared to covet my girlfriend."
The moment he finished his words, something flew toward the man's left eye.
Stab!
"Arghh!" The man screamed and rolled on the ground.
No one knew what had just happened and could only take several steps back, trying to distance themselves from him.
At this point, the man no longer had any intention of scheming against Jin Xuyan. He only hoped for a quick death. The pain of losing both his fingers and an eye was too much to bear.
Watching the man twitching on the ground in agony, Jin Xuyan said with a smile, "As you said, one needs to pay the price. Since you dared to stare at my girlfriend with that disgusting gaze, then you will pay for your crime with one of your eyes."
Only after hearing his words did everyone realize he was the one who had attacked their boss. If before they still held out hope that their boss might outsmart him, now they only wished to become invisible so as not become his next target.
While Jin Xuyan used a metal bullet to destroy the man's eye, Jiao Lizhi watched without flinching. People like him only dared to bully the weak.
Although such people wouldn't survive long in the apocalypse, the crimes they committed in that short time were unforgivable.
She looked at the group and noticed there wasn't a single woman among them. It seemed they were no different from the beasts at the factory.
Five minutes later, the man died from the pain, and Jin Xuyan burned his corpse with his flame. When he was done, he looked at the group and said, "Lead the way to your base."
After witnessing how he killed their boss, no one dared go against him. They quickly nodded and led him and Jiao Lizhi to the warehouse.
When they opened the gate, Jiao Lizhi frowned. Amid the rancid stench in the air, she could smell body odor, sourness, and musky, metallic stench. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
This time, no one dared voice any objection. They quickly moved to open the cage and untie the women.
As soon as they were released, the children and elderly rushed to the women, covering their wounded bodies with their clothes. They hugged them and cried.
The men looked at them with disgust and impatience. But when their gazes shifted to Jiao Lizhi, only fear remained.
Ignoring them, Jiao Lizhi walked up to the group of women and asked, "Do you want to kill them?"
At first, the women didn't react, even after being released. But when they heard her words, light slowly returned to their eyes, and tears began to fall.
"I want to kill them," one of them said weakly. Despite her hoarse, soft voice, the hatred in it was unmistakable.
Jiao Lizhi nodded, placed her dagger on the ground in front of the woman, and said, "I will lend you my dagger. You can kill them yourself."
As soon as she finished speaking, she turned and walked back to Jin Xuyan, waiting silently.
The woman stared at the cold dagger on the ground in a daze. Suddenly, she pushed away the old woman and man who were holding her and picked it up. She then dragged her wounded body and walked to the group of men slowly.
