Although the car at the intersection also had its lights on, it was still a distance away from here. The dim lights were completely useless now. The bald men, who had been talking rudely, were shocked when their vision suddenly turned black. Before they could react, they heard light and hurried footsteps.

One of the bald men felt a cold wind behind him. He subconsciously wanted to turn around, but he suddenly felt a warm current on his neck. He did not even have time to make a sound before he fell to the ground.

Du Yue did not hesitate at all. She raised her sword and slashed at the man beside her. Du Yue’s blade fell quickly and accurately, ruthlessly killing three of them. The remaining three were immediately trembling in fear. After finally adapting to the darkness, they mustered their courage and picked up their weapons. They found Du Yue’s figure with the help of the faint light in the distance and rushed toward her.

The three of them shared the same thoughts in their hearts. Du Yue was a woman, after all. Compared to them, who were burly men, there was a big gap in their size. Not to mention that they had more people on their side. If they attacked together, there was no way this woman could escape.

However, they did not expect Du Yue to be more agile than them despite her small size. Du Yue brandished the Tang sword in her hand, which glinted with a cold light. This made it even harder for the men to get close. She moved quickly and dealt with two of them in less than five minutes.

The only man who was still alive among them had his hamstrings cut by Du Yue. As he watched Du Yue slowly approach him with a cold expression, the intense pain and unbearable fear made his body tremble uncontrollably. He crawled back repeatedly and finally knelt down in front of Du Yue with a plop.

“Please be magnanimous and let me go, okay? I have an 80-year-old mother waiting for me at home. I can’t die yet. Please, don’t kill me. I beg you.” Du Yue stopped in her tracks when she heard the man begging for mercy.

Seeing this, the man revealed a sinister smile on his face. Before he could do anything, however, Du Yue waved her right hand. The tip of the Tang sword slid across the man’s neck, causing blood to spray out. The man’s eyes were wide open as he fell to the ground. The syringe in his hand also fell to the ground.

After making sure that the men were no longer breathing, Du Yue picked up her Tang sword and walked quickly toward the car at the intersection. When she was close to the vehicle, Du Yue did not get in immediately. She was not sure if there was anyone else in the car. Standing two to three meters away from the car, Du Yue had a flash of inspiration. She took out a tear-inducing grenade from her pocket, opened it, and directly threw it through the open window.

Not long after, the car was filled with thick fog. Not only could the fog block one’s vision, but there was also a very pungent smell. If there were still people lying in ambush in the car, they would have been choked to the point that their eyes were filled with tears. Du Yue stood at the side and waited. Less than half a minute later, two bald men jumped out of the car. The two of them were already teary-eyed from the smoke, but they still refused to give up. They charged at Du Yue with daggers in their hands.

Du Yue stood where she was and waited for the two of them to come forward. With two clattering sounds, she raised her hand and cut off the two men’s heads.

It was not that this group of bald men was trash. In reality, it was not an injustice for them to die at Du Yue’s hands. Du Yue had experienced the end of the world in her previous life. She was on the edge of a blade countless times in a year. She had experienced such situations too many times, so it was no longer surprising. She did not know any fancy moves, but she knew real moves that could kill people. Every time she made a move, she had full confidence in herself.

In addition, in this life, she had a handy weapon. she had been practicing using that weapon diligently every day for nearly a year. Her skill was more than enough to deal with these punks who had no real ability. If she allowed herself to be bullied by them, Du Yue felt that she would have wasted the chance the heavens gave her by letting her be reborn. If that really happened, she should just hang herself.

Du Yue only opened the door and got into the car after the smoke from the tear bomb had completely dissipated. The car was dirty and messy. Other than dust and mud on the floor, there were many cigarette butts and food residue. The seats at the back of the car had been removed, and there were dozens of large boxes piled up in the empty space. It seemed that they were all the supplies they had robbed from others.

Du Yue raised her brows slightly and walked forward to check. When she opened the boxes, she was pleasantly surprised. Five of the boxes were filled with white wine, and three boxes were filled with cigarettes of all kinds of brands. In addition, there were two boxes of canned luncheon meat, six boxes of instant noodles, two boxes of compressed biscuits, four boxes of milk, and more than a dozen boxes of mineral water. Rice, flour, and oil filled 10 large boxes.
