Chapter 145 Then I'll 'take good care' of you.
"What? You like this one in my hand?" Yun Juan raised her eyebrows slightly, looking at the bearded man in front of her with a half-smile.
Just now, she clearly caught a fleeting glint of light in the other person's eyes.
Hmph! This guy not only feared the "Rain of Pear Blossom Needles" in her hand, but his deeply hidden greed was also hard to escape her discerning eyes.
He must be plotting something, trying to take this powerful hidden weapon for himself.
Yun Juan might believe it to some extent if it were that his lackeys and generals were showing fear out of dread.
However, how could fear alone make this person in such an important position reveal such obvious greed in his eyes?
I suspect this person's plan is to capture her alive, seize the hidden weapon from her, and then use it to curry favor with his superiors.
The bearded man subconsciously touched the weapon made of refined iron in his hand, and a wave of emotion welled up in his heart.
This weapon was a reward bestowed upon him by his master when he had gone through countless hardships and struggled to climb to his current position of authority.
You should know that this refined iron is not a rare item that just anyone can afford.
Only someone like him, through tireless effort and countless life-or-death battles, could earn such an honor.
Looking back on all the hardships and tribulations he has experienced along the way, the bearded man knows that his achievements today are hard-won.
He paid a heavy price for this, even sacrificing the lives of many of his comrades.
Therefore, no matter what, he absolutely could not let a naive and arrogant little girl ruin everything he had worked so hard to achieve.
Thinking of this, a fierce glint flashed in the bearded man's eyes. He gripped the fine iron weapon in his hand tightly, ready to deliver a fatal blow to Yun Juan at any moment.
The bearded man's large, round eyes glared wide, flashing with a chillingly fierce light, as if they were about to spit fire.
He stared intently at Yun Juan, gritting his teeth as he said, "Hmph, once you're dead, this precious weapon will be mine! As for you, you're just a weak little brat with no strength to even kill a chicken. Once you fall into our hands, hehehe... you'll be completely at my mercy!"
As he spoke, his sly eyes began to brazenly scan Yun Juan's body from head to toe.
The girl in front of me was still quite slender, and had not yet developed a graceful and charming figure, but her beautiful and refined face was as lovely as a lotus emerging from the water.
The bearded man thought to himself: Although this girl has an ordinary figure, judging from her youthful appearance, she must still be a virgin who has never experienced the ways of the world!
In that case, I can finally have a taste! Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel overjoyed, and a lewd smile appeared on his lips.
His men, upon hearing their boss's words, all wore expressions of delight and rubbed their hands together, their eyes revealing undisguised greed and wickedness.
Yun Quan felt a chill run down her spine under the lewd gazes of these people, which were like those of hungry wolves. Although she didn't know what filthy ideas they were plotting, a sense of disgust welled up from the bottom of her heart.
She felt as if those gazes were like sticky, venomous snakes crawling and licking all over her, making her so nauseous that she almost vomited up her dinner from the night before.
"You lowlifes? You dare to harbor improper thoughts about me, your great-aunt? Humph! What's wrong? Do you think life is too comfortable and you have to find some trouble, even risking your life? Fine, I've always been happy to help others and I'm most willing to help people fulfill their wishes. Today, I'll grant your wish!"
Yun Juan had already planned ahead; when she let those girls go, she had already devised a strategy to deal with them.
Although she didn't know if firearms or similar items existed on this fictional continent, it was best to keep secret weapons like firearms as little as possible at this stage.
Now, only she and these arrogant fools remain in the arena. In this way, she can reveal her trump card without any scruples—the incredibly powerful lightning and fire—and annihilate them in one fell swoop.
As for whether their knowledge of using firearms will be spread, that depends on whether they survive.
The burly man with a full beard opposite him burst into laughter as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world after hearing Yun Juan's harsh words.
"Hahahaha... Oh my, that's hilarious! You little brat, you've got quite the nerve! You say you'll grant our wishes?"
"Who do you think you are? Are you out of your mind? Hahahaha... But you're not bad looking. If you obediently take off your clothes and serve me properly, maybe I'll be in a good mood and spare your life! How about it?"
As he spoke, his thieving eyes brazenly scanned Yun Juan's body, a lewd smile playing on his lips.
Yun Juan had no intention of wasting her breath on these guys. Her expression turned cold, and she reached into the space without hesitation.
In an instant, several grenades appeared in her fair and delicate palm.
A sly, cold smile played on her lips as she thought to herself, "Hmph! Since you bunch of fools are so eager to be served, then I'll give you a good 'service' today! I guarantee you'll never forget it!"
"Hey boss, look at this! This little brat actually pulled out a few things the size of eggs! Does she really think she can take us all down with just these little things? Hahahaha..." One of the henchmen burst into laughter, his face full of mockery and disdain.
"That's right, she's just overestimating herself! Our boss is a veteran with countless battles and superb martial arts skills. He could easily take down this little girl all by himself!" another henchman chimed in, his eyes also flashing with contempt.
However, the bearded leader was not swayed by his subordinates' words.
He narrowed his eyes, his gaze sharp as a hawk's, fixed on the grenade in Yun Quan's hand.
Just recently, a seemingly insignificant grenade had instantly cost him dozens of his capable subordinates.
As the saying goes, "a fall into a pit, a gain in your wit," having learned such a painful lesson before, he dared not underestimate the seemingly weak woman in front of him, nor the things he had never seen before that she held in her hands.
