Chapter 15: The Thug Was Almost Scared Away

Now that Brother She and Chu Muyue were officially face-to-face, had the previous events not occurred, Brother She’s gaze upon Chu Muyue might have been lewd and greedy.

But now, it was pure rage. He only wanted to vent the fury in his heart and the faint sense of unease that was creeping over him.

Brother She was not the only one feeling uneasy; in such a bizarre and blood-soaked, cruel place, the atmosphere felt eerie and terrifying.

When Chu Muyue mentioned that Heaven had opened its eyes to teach them a lesson, it naturally and unconsciously caused them to think of bad things.

Most of these thugs were merely petty thieves; they had never even beaten anyone to death. Therefore, when faced with such bloody retribution, they couldn't help but think that ghosts or gods were at work.

"Ah...!" One cowardly thug could no longer hold back. With a miserable scream, he spun around and bolted, desperate to escape this hellish place.

As the terrified screams rang out continuously, Chu Muyue looked toward the factory entrance. Seeing that there were now barely ten thugs left running, a smile played at the corners of her mouth as she turned to look at Brother She.

If, from the very beginning, the number of subordinates Brother She brought—the initial group of twenty or thirty who had arrived first only to be killed by someone unknown, plus the fifty or sixty subordinates he brought later—had been the total, perhaps Chu Muyue would have been somewhat worried, as her injuries had not yet fully healed.

But now? She didn't care at all.

Including Brother She himself and the Red-Haired man who had brought her, the total number of people did not exceed fifteen. How were they supposed to fight her?

Furthermore, inside this blood-stained factory filled with a bizarre aura, the atmosphere was demoralizing. Their momentum was weakened, and their combat effectiveness was greatly diminished; they were in no way a match for Chu Muyue.

"It's all your fault!" Brother She pinned all the hatred onto Chu Muyue.

In Brother She's mind, if it weren't for Chu Muyue, why would he have brought his subordinates here? They hadn't come here just once or twice; every time they came here to teach someone a lesson, nothing had ever gone wrong. Yet this time, problems had arisen, and so many people had died.

"What does this have to do with me? I told you long ago not to do these things, but you wouldn't listen!" Chu Muyue sneered, her hands clasped behind her back. "Hehehe, are you trying to say that I sent people to kill your subordinates?"

As the leader of these thugs, Brother She naturally knew the truth was not so; this matter had nothing to do with Chu Muyue.

However, if this news spread—that he had lost so many men—who would believe him if he said it wasn't Chu Muyue, but someone else, who killed them?

The ultimate outcome was easy to imagine. He had originally intended to re-establish his authority, but he had failed, and it had even backfired. This was absolutely a case of lifting a stone only to drop it on one's own feet!

"Chu Muyue, since I called you here today, don't even think about leaving!" Having reached a breaking point, Brother She was ready to throw caution to the wind. He only wanted to use Chu Muyue to vent his rage, treating it as a bit of interest to be collected.

In the angry Brother She's eyes, a hint of lewdness and greed emerged. He wished he could take Chu Muyue right then and there.

With a woman like this, he only needed to have his way with her and then take a few photos. He wanted to see if she would still dare to be arrogant or offend him in the future; she would have to pay a painful price.
