Chapter One: The Beginning Unfolds

  The other party's words caused the expressions of everyone on Liang Jing's side to change. No matter what, Ling Qinghe was a member of their team and had an ambiguous relationship with Liang Jing. In fact, Ling Qinghe had intentionally or unintentionally teased Liang Jing before, but Liang Jing had his own thoughts in mind, thinking that he should find a suitable partner to solve his virginity problem. As a result, the affair between the two was considered ambiguous by everyone.

  Moreover, the tone of the other party's speech completely ignored their existence. To know that they had encountered many survivors' tragic experiences over the past few days, and their anger had been rising unconsciously. How could they tolerate it without getting angry? Among them, Ling Qinghe's facial expression changed the most, her face was icy cold, and for a moment, everyone looked at Liang Jing in unison, waiting for him to nod in agreement.

  "You few bring that woman over, and then roll away immediately!" At this time, the opposite side had five people in a row, Huang Ge and four younger brothers. One of the younger brothers shouted loudly towards Liang Jing's side, with an air of superior condescension.

  At this time, Huang Ge seemed to be waiting for everyone's reaction, with a cat-and-mouse feeling. He looked at the words and actions of his younger brothers on the side, very satisfied in his heart, thinking that this was the way to be domineering, this was the momentum. Next, if the other party disagrees, they will be dealt with properly, and see how they can do it. In his heart, he never thought that someone would dare to resist this matter, and they have been arrogant for a long time.

  Several other younger brothers also did so, looking at the humans walking out from the opposite side, their originally tightly held guns also loosened and were casually hung on one side of their bodies, constantly sizing up Ling Qinghe, making "tsk" sounds with their mouths...

  Ling Qinghe has also undergone a significant transformation, from the time she just came out of the office building's bathroom. Originally extremely sexy, this period of not participating in battles has brought about an air of elegance, with a rosy complexion, smooth skin, slender yet slightly plump figure, prominent chest, and a perfectly rounded and firm buttocks. The soft yet elastic feel that Liang Jing had previously experienced was a perfect blend of femininity and sensuality, greatly increasing her allure to men. She often teased Liang Jing, leaving him on the verge of losing control, almost causing him to ejaculate prematurely several times.

  As the underlings of the corrupt official, the few men with the surname Huang who were handling affairs under him did not notice the expression on the face of the person opposite them, nor would they have noticed the ferocious mask that Liang Jing was now wearing, or the massive sword "Baroque's Sorrow" he had slung over his back. It wasn't that they lacked eyesight, but rather they didn't consider Liang Jing and his companions as opponents, for in their minds no one dared to resist them, because the consequences would be dire. This was a warning sign forged in blood repeatedly over this period of time. Now all they could think about was how to take advantage of the situation with the sexy woman they had captured, to bring themselves some benefits, and that was all.

  "Paralyzed, didn't you hear? Now Huang Ge is in a bad mood. Offer up the woman and knock three times to roll away! You've been dawdling and provoking us, making it impossible for you to live or die!"

  Looking at Liang Jing's side, there was not even a slight movement or a begging sound, Huang Ge became unwilling. The younger brother on the other side, Ma Zi, shouted loudly and scolded, looking at Liang Jing with an air of arrogance, which made people feel embarrassed to watch. However, Huang Ge indeed enjoyed this feeling, constantly praising in his heart that it was great to be in a post-apocalyptic world. Otherwise, he would have only earned over 2,000 yuan per month from working hard before the apocalypse, and wouldn't have been so carefree and happy now.

  At the same time, he was very dissatisfied with Liang Jing and others who were clearly unwilling on the other side. He had already made up his mind to play a cruel trick on them. As a small person in the pre-apocalyptic world, Huang Ge's heart had undergone a transformation in a short period of time after becoming an awakened human being. His whole person seemed somewhat pathological and brutal, having done this many times before. Under their desperate cries and hopeless expressions, he didn't feel any fear, only a thread of pleasure.

  "Grass, unexpectedly not listening to orders, Old Three and I will go up together to give them a lesson. It seems that if you don't see the coffin, you won't shed tears. They actually dare to ignore us, this is blatant crime!" The quick-witted younger brother looked at Liang Jing and others who didn't react at all, even with a hint of looking down on him, got a bit angry and nodded to a man in his 30s with rough skin, walked towards Liang Jing's side, not noticing the atmosphere in the scene at all.

  After Liang Jing's death, the crowd followed his instructions and watched their performance with a clown-like gaze. In their hearts, they had already issued a kill order for this group of people who could be said to be extremely evil and arrogant. Now, they just wanted to see how the other party would deal with them, and they also needed some living mouths to inquire about the situation. As for the background behind the opponent's back, it was not worth considering at all. Just kill them all. At this time of 'war and chaos', a few deaths in the wilderness were too normal.

  "Kneel down and kowtow immediately—" The other person's face was flushed with a morbid excitement, walking over to yell at Liang Jing's side, but before he could finish speaking, he suddenly couldn't speak anymore—

  Hmph! Hmph!——

  "Ah! Bastards, how dare you treat us like this? You're asking for death, you're dead meat, Tuo Shao won't let you off, ah!"

  Only one side, Wang Meng and Tie Zhu received Liang Jing's instructions, picked up the sharp [short knife] in their hands and chopped directly at the opponent's feet. The move was ruthless and decisive, with no mercy, extremely cruel, and a hissing sound arose, followed by the sound of legs breaking and falling to the ground, while still habitually swearing and threatening.

  However, the huge pain made them even more ferocious and threatening, shouting loudly, but soon discovered that it was not right. An even louder scream erupted as they saw one of their legs had been chopped off by the opponent's short knife, with blood gushing out of the wound nonstop. They were suddenly paralyzed with fear, thinking "it's all over", things had turned out to be completely beyond their expectations. The opponent didn't take their threats seriously at all, which was totally unexpected, especially when they saw the indifference in the eyes of the two men, and the knife in their hands was still falling towards them. Filled with infinite terror, they stood there frozen.

  "Halt! —— The two crippled younger brothers were scared stiff as the parties involved, but 'Huang Ge' didn't, looking at the situation and thinking it was not quite right with himself, loudly shouting."

  "Ah! Ah! — Don't, spare my life, honorable grandfathers, stop chopping, it hurts —"

  Unfortunately, Wang Meng and Tie Zhu were carrying short knives and didn't receive any impact from him at all. They were ruthless, cold-blooded, and extremely indifferent, making people's hearts tremble with their apathy.

  "I'm telling you to stop! Can't you hear? Are you tired of living?! You're going too far! Don't you know who we are?! How dare you be so arrogant, we are under the command of Lord Tu's men, you're dead for sure! Now, anyone related to you will not be spared, no one will be able to beg for mercy. 'Huang Ge' shouted loudly but had no effect on his opponents, which made him extremely unhappy. Before the apocalypse, he was used to being ignored by people, and now that he finally has power, he can't stand being ignored again. His heart is filled with rage and shock, but he still hasn't realized what kind of person he's dealing with."

  The two younger brothers next to them saw their partner, who was still jumping around just now, suddenly having his four limbs chopped off by the opponent and struggling in agony on the ground. They felt like their hearts were flying out of their chests, and they hastily grasped their guns, which were the only things that could bring them a sense of security.

  "You two, take your hands off the triggers, and it's best if the muzzle isn't pointing this way, or else the consequences will be severe." Liang Jing said calmly, seemingly not paying much attention to the guns in their hands, but simply not liking being pointed at.

  "Huh? Who do you think you are? Open fire and kill all these people! Everyone must die!" 'Huang Ge' heard Liang Jing's warning, burst out laughing wildly. You really think you're someone, you're so awesome? Go die for me! Even Awakeners aren't invincible, unless some have special talents that excel at defense. Under the rifle, even they wouldn't dare to directly resist head-on."

  The two little brothers listened to the order, with a sly smile on their faces, and were about to move the trigger.
