Become a Knight Across the World

Chapter 292 Bullying

"No...don't kill me! I surrender! I was wrong! Spare me!" Poison Scorpion was the first to break down, falling to his knees with a thud, tears streaming down his face, frantically kowtowing.

"My lord! Spare us! We were forced into this! It was Poison Scorpion! He bewitched us!" Iron Hand also knelt down, shifting all the blame onto Poison Scorpion.

"I...I'm willing to be your slave! Please..." Blood Wolf wanted to kneel down, but the immense fear made his legs give way and he collapsed to the ground.

The man in black seemed completely uninterested in their pleas for mercy. His golden eyes, like cold searchlights, were locked onto them.

Just then, from the shadows of the warehouse roof came a soft laugh, tinged with mockery and chilling murderous intent:

"Heh~ having fun, my 'little spiders'?"

A red figure descended with ghostly grace, landing silently a few steps in front of the man in black. It was Li Yuejiao!

She was still wearing that burgundy dress, which made her look particularly eerie and out of place in the blood-soaked, abandoned factory. A seductive smile graced her face, but her eyes were colder than the biting wind.

"Boss... Boss?!" Scorpion and the others were terrified when they saw Li Yuejiao appear! What was she doing here? Shouldn't she be at the bar in Z City?

"Surprised?" Li Yuejiao looked at them with a sly smile, as if they were a group of pitiful worms who had fallen into a trap. "Did you really think your little tricks could fool me? Did you really think that planting a few useless spies would allow you to track my movements? Fools!"

Her gaze swept over the pools of blood that hadn't dried yet and the twisted steel gate on the ground, then looked at the traitors who were sprawled on the ground like rag dolls, and finally landed on the black-clad man who exuded a terrifying aura. A hint of amazement and satisfaction flashed in her eyes.

As expected of Yueyue, the effect is really good!

"Originally, I wanted to come and clean up this mess myself." Li Yuejiao strolled slowly, her high heels clicking crisply on the dusty, blood-stained floor. Each step felt like a blow to the hearts of Poison Scorpion and his gang.

"However, this... well, sir, seems to think you're too dirty, too dirty for me to do my job? So, you've cleaned up some of the trash for me beforehand."

She walked to the man in black, nodded slightly to him/her, and said with a hint of barely perceptible respect: "Sir, could you leave the rest to me to handle? After all, family scandals must be cleared up by oneself, and some debts must be settled personally to vent one's anger."

The man in black, his eyes gleaming with golden light, glanced at Li Yuejiao but made no comment. He simply stepped aside slightly, giving her space. His posture was aloof, as if he tacitly approved.

Scorpion and his men were utterly desperate! With the mysterious and terrifying man in black in front and the murderous Li Yuejiao behind, they had no chance of escape today!

"Li Yuejiao! You devil! You colluded with this monster..." Scorpion roared in despair.

"A monster?" Li Yuejiao's smile turned cold, and she moved instantly!

Fast! Extremely fast!

Like a red lightning bolt!

"Pfft!" "Snap!" "Ugh—!"

Several short, teeth-grinding sounds of bones and flesh cracking and muffled groans rang out!

Li Yuejiao's figure flitted among the remaining people like a butterfly flitting among flowers. She didn't use any weapons, but her seemingly soft and boneless hands were transformed into the most terrifying killing weapons!

Crush the throat! Pierce the heart! Break the neck!

The movements are precise, ruthless, and efficient, possessing a cruel beauty! This is the killing art of humanity's pinnacle combat prowess!

Less than ten seconds.

The scorpion stared wide-eyed in terror and resentment, a horrifying bloody hole appearing in its throat, before collapsing with a groan.

Iron Hand's proud arms were torn off, his chest collapsed, and he died a gruesome death.

Blood Wolf was twisted into a pretzel, his bones broken into pieces, and he lay limp on the ground like a tattered sack.

The other trusted confidants had already died instantly.

Inside the warehouse, only the overwhelming stench of blood and deathly silence remained.

Li Yuejiao stood in the center of the pool of blood, a few drops of blood dripping from the hem of her wine-red dress. She shook her hand as if it had been stained with something dirty, the charming smile on her face long gone, leaving only cold indifference.

She looked at the man in black at the door, her tone returning to normal: "Thanks, Your Excellency. The lines and entrance were absolutely awesome! The effect was superb! The expressions on those idiots' faces before they died are something I'll savor for a long time." She winked at the man in black.

Lin Yue's lips, hidden beneath her mask, seemed to twitch slightly.

Oh well, whatever makes you happy.

She didn't speak, but simply raised her hand and waved it gently at the corpses and bloody mess in the warehouse.

Without a sound, the corpses, bloodstains, and twisted fragments of the steel door... were dissolved as if by the most efficient cleaning agent, quickly vanishing into nothingness, even the stench of blood in the air disappeared instantly. Apart from the huge hole in the wall and the dust on the floor, the entire warehouse seemed as if nothing had ever happened.

Having done all this, the man in black didn't even glance at Li Yuejiao. He turned and took a step, his figure disappearing into the night. Li Yuejiao was left alone in the empty, clean warehouse.

"Tsk, what a heartless woman." Li Yuejiao curled her lips, then revealed a relaxed smile. "But now it's peaceful."

She took out a communicator: "Z City, point C cleared. As planned, take over all 'Black Spider' assets and personnel in cities B, C, and D. Those who disobey..." A cold glint flashed in her eyes, "...will be eliminated on the spot."

After hanging up the call, Li Yuejiao took one last look at the hole, then turned around, her red figure quickly disappearing into the shadows of the abandoned factory.

A rebellion that could have overthrown the organization was nipped in the bud by overwhelming force, without even causing a ripple.

Lin Yue, meanwhile, had already crossed the dimensional barrier and returned to her quiet room. She took off her black clothes and helmet, casually tossing them deep into the closet, as if she had just gone out to take out the trash.

Outside the window, the city's neon lights still flickered, and the night was gentle. She walked to her desk, picked up the open workbook, and acted as if nothing had happened.

.........

Late autumn in Z City carried a sticky, chilly chill. Sycamore leaves swirled and fell, carpeting the path leading to the teaching building of Z City's key high school, No. 1.

Xu Yun carried a faded canvas backpack, her head down as usual, walking briskly. Her steps carried a heaviness beyond her years, as if each step was on thorns.

"Hey, isn't this our 'poor little thing'?" A sharp, piercing voice, like a poisoned needle, precisely pierced the tranquility of the morning.

Xu Yun's body stiffened abruptly, almost curling into a ball. Without turning around, she knew who it was.

Zhang Hao strode up to her in a few steps, deliberately stepping on the toe of Xu Yun's canvas shoe with his brand-new limited-edition sneakers, the force so great that she gasped in pain.

"Tsk, these soles are really hard, they hurt. Hey Xu Yun, did those spoiled wontons your mom sold on the street yesterday kill you?"

Chen Ya, Zhang Hao's girlfriend, giggled. She held a freshly bought cup of bubble tea, stirring it with a straw. "Brother Hao, why waste your breath on her? Look at her, so unlucky to run into her first thing in the morning!" With that, she flicked her wrist, splashing the scalding hot tea, along with the sticky tapioca pearls, all over Xu Yun's head, face, and school uniform!

Scalding hot! Sticky! The cloyingly sweet creamer flavor mixed with humiliation instantly enveloped Xu Yun.

She screamed and stumbled backward, milk tea streaming down her hair and cheeks, soaking the front of her school uniform, which clung to her skin, burning hot. Pearls rolled onto the ground.

"Hahahaha!" Wang Lei slapped his thigh and laughed wildly, "Sister Ya is awesome! This drenched look suits her perfectly!"

Students stopped to watch, some frowning, some whispering, and others numbly averting their gaze. No one stepped forward, and no one dared to say anything. Chen Ya's father was the district head of a district in Z City, and her mother owned a chain of beauty salons that had been operating in Z City for many years, with deep-rooted connections.

Zhang Hao's family is in the construction business, and Wang Lei's father works in a powerful department. They are notorious bullies at the school, and even the teachers turn a blind eye to them.

Xu Yun trembled all over, not from the cold, but from anger and fear. She bit her lower lip so hard it almost bled, barely managing to hold back her tears. She crouched down to pick up her schoolbag, inside which were the homework she had stayed up all night to finish.

"What are you picking up?" Zhang Hao kicked open her schoolbag, scattering her books and stationery all over the floor, covered in dirty water and dust. "Trash should stay in the trash heap. You and your mother, you are!"

Chen Ya, in her high heels, deliberately ran over Xu Yun's scattered math workbook, leaving a dark shoe print on the pristine white paper. "I heard you still want to go to university? Give me a break! Do you even deserve it? Don't waste educational resources!"

The school bell rang. Chen Ya and her two friends, like victorious generals, strode away, leaving Xu Yun alone. Amidst the sympathetic or indifferent gazes of the crowd, she silently picked up her trampled books and dignity, piece by piece. Her fingers were icy cold, stained with milk tea and mud.
