(Heurn Province- Fagong City)
(Outskirts- Hidden Location)
Bai Yu frowned heavily as he glanced at the two corpses that were now burnt and blackened beyond comprehension.
The leader of the blood hound gang genuinely had no idea what had possessed his n to turn on each other.
Surviving in these harsh tis required relying on other people for protection.
Bai Yu knew that his ability was powerful, but he was not the only one who was blessed with a gift.
And those who were strong enough to set up permanent bases in the city attracted individuals with gifts to join their side.
Everyone else was forced to form their own groups based in the outskirts of the city. Barely surviving and hoping not to draw the attention of the bigger fish in the pond.
Bai Yu snapped his fingers and a warm orange fla floated above his fingertips.
Morale was pretty low… maybe he should gift those won to his n directly to prevent bad feelings from developing.
So of his n were clearly resentful that they were only allowed to touch the captured won after he finished playing with them.
"Listen… I will make an exception and…" Bai Yu opened his mouth to speak when he was interrupted by a loud shout.
"You piece of shit! I'm tired of working for you… I WANT TO BE THE LEADER!" an angry voice shouted.
Bai Yu turned around and saw one of his n rush at him with a knife clenched tightly in his palm.
The leader of the blood hound gang did not panic and simply raised up his right hand in the direction of his would-be attacker.
A roaring wave of fire erupted from the center of his palm and burnt the traitor to a crisp. Bai Yu furrowed his brows as he gradually began to realise that sothing was not right.
Why were his n turning on him despite knowing that they would be unable to handle his ability?
No… there was sothing else going on…
Bai Yu could not have imagined that every single one of the n surrounding him secretly exchanged glances with raw hatred burning in their eyes.
The leader of the blood hound gang was a tyrant.
He was a brutal criminal who would punish his subordinates for even the slightest mistakes and many of the n here had suffered his wrath.
The rebellious feelings that his n held towards him were usually hidden because of their fear but now Qin Lan allowed their emotions to run freely.
"Fuck… you… you bastard…" a man muttered quietly as he ran towards Bai Yu with madness clearly visible on his face.
He was not alone and almost as if his charge was a signal, dozens of n rushed towards their leader with bloodthirsty expressions.
Even the n who were fighting on the streets turned away from each other and joined the mob that aid to kill Bai Yu.
The captured won had no idea what was going on and they did not dare to even move a single muscle.
"Co with …" a soft voice whispered.
The won were startled and managed to twist their heads in the direction of the noise.
They saw a beautiful lady with gorgeous facial features that were so breathtaking that she appeared as though she was a goddess who had co down from the heavens.
The mysterious stranger raised a finger to her lips and gestured towards the direction of the n who were now fighting their leader.
Eve stretched out her hands and her fingernails extended outwards until they beca black claws.
The zombie empress used her claws to roughly tear through the ropes binding the five won one by one until they were all free.
Tears welled up in so of the won's eyes as they stared at Eve with looks of gratitude.
The zombie empress guided them away from the fight and helped the youngest girl from falling since her legs were slightly injured.
She honestly didn't want to rescue these humans, but Qin Lan was busy right now manipulating her ability and Eve got the feeling that she would have wanted her to save these won.
anwhile Bai Yu was in a bit of trouble.
He could handle a few opponents at a ti but dozens of n rushing at him had thrown him off his balance.
"Have you all gone mad?! I am the only source of protection that you ungrateful fuckers have in this city!" the leader roared with fury.
He activated his ability once more and burnt several n to death, but no one seed to be deterred by his act of violence.
Bai Yu cursed as he narrowly avoided a knife that aid directly for his throat.
He tilted his head to the side and felt a cold blade brush against the side of his cheek. The leader raised up his hand to his cheek and felt a wet sensation.
He was bleeding… soone had managed to hurt him…
"Get back you fuckers! GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM !" Bai Yu yelled as he unleashed a wave of fire that was over ten feet tall.
Without hesitation he allowed the wave to slam into his n and their screams echoed through the empty district.
Bai Yu coughed violently, and thin flecks of blood escaped his lips. He could feel his body groaning with pain which ant that he had overexerted himself.
Dark orangish-red flas were still burning on the ground as the leader slumped to his knees and tried to recover his breath.
He closed his eyes and tried to ignore the unpleasant scent of roasted human flesh that entered his nostrils.
"Truly impressive…" a cold feminine voice spoke. Bai Yu forced his tired eyes open and saw a woman standing over him.
How did she get here? Who?
The woman wore black track pants and a leather jacket that fit comfortably around her shoulders.
She was incredibly plain with a face that would get lost in a crowd and yet there was a dangerous aura around her that made shivers run down Bai Yu's spine.
It was her eyes.
Bai Yu had grown up on the streets and had only seen eyes like those on the faces of the most brutal criminals.
Qin Lan glanced down at the injured gang leader and a mory from the original Qin Lan flashed across her mind.
Bai Yu would one day beco the leader of Fagong City and would implent the harshest restrictions of won's rights in the entire country.
Under his rule, won were little more than breeding tools or rewards for his n. The amount of pain and suffering that he caused was unforgiveable.
The original Qin Lan never got the opportunity to turn him into a puppet, but now he had fallen right into her hands.
For animals like him… they needed to put down rather than being kept alive.
Qin Lan slowly approached the exhausted gang leader and extended the black tendrils from her mind.
She invaded his head and slowly took over control of his body. She left his consciousness intact because she wanted him to feel helpless just like the won who he abused.
"Please… have rcy… I will fight by your side… I will be a loyal dog…" Bai Yu groaned with great effort.
He didn't know what this strange woman's ability did, but it was clear that she was the one responsible for his n turning on him.
"When they begged…" Qin Lan softly whispered as she raised up her gun and pointed it at the gang leader's forehead.
"Did you have rcy?"
Her finger slowly wrapped around the trigger, and she pulled without a second of hesitation or remorse.
Bang!
