Chapter 376: Rather Die Than Submit
So, You Yue was not surprised when she heard what her cousin had said. Earlier, she had insisted on staying in that house because even though her parents treated her badly now, at least they had raised her.
However, it seemed that she couldn't continue to stay there. Otherwise, she wouldn't even know if they sold her.
She took a deep breath and made a decision, she would never go back there.
Just as she was about to speak, Wei Zi Qi spoke first.
"Yue Yue, you don't have to sacrifice your chastity for supplies. If we have to fight then let's fight. I don't believe that we won't be able to defeat them."
You Yue felt her heart warm when she heard that. She turned to look at Wei Zi Qi and smiled. Actually, she had always known that he liked her, but never told her.
It was just that, before the apocalypse, she was more concerned about her studies and didn't have time to date, so she always pretended not to know about his feelings.
Now looking at Wei Zi Qi who was ready to fight for her sake even though they were outnumbered, she felt that he was a good man.
If she had to find a partner in the future, then she would choose him.
"If you want to fight, fight. Don't count me in." You Yue's cousin said then took two steps back.
Xie Mu didn't say anything but the two steps she took backwards and stood next to You Yue's cousin said everything.
You Yue then turned to the other four people in the team and waited for them to make a decision. She wanted to know if they too would abandon her.
However, the others didn't disappoint as they all took out their weapons and took a battle stance.
"If we abandon You Yue today, then we would have completely lost our humanity and would be no different from those monsters eating their own kind.
So, if fighting is what we have to do, then we will fight. However, Xie Mu and You San, you are no longer members of this team." The team leader said and the others nodded.
They too didn't want to be in the same team with someone who would turn against them and sell them at any moment.
"Mmh…so what if we are no longer members of your team, we can just look for another team to join." You San didn't even have any remorse for selling out his cousin and directly left the team with Xie Mu.
Seeing the team that was already smaller than theirs split up, the leader of the other team laughed loudly.
"Young man, lady, if you want you can join our team. You will definitely get a share of the supplies." He invited the two deserters to their team.
It wasn't a bad thing to have more people while also agitating the other group.
When Xie Mu and You San heard the leader invite them, they didn't even stop to think and immediately walked over to their side.
You Yue watched this unfold and the small waver in her heart that lingered on whether to leave home or not disappeared like smoke.
She would not continue to live with people who had no moral bottom line.
"Alright, then we will wipe you out and see if you can continue to be arrogant and refuse to sleep with us." The leader said as he and the others were too prepared to fight.
Just as the two teams were about to clash, a voice suddenly called from the entrance of the path.
"I don't think there is any need to fight."
The people who were about to engage in battle suddenly stopped when they heard the voice.
They all turned towards the voice in unison and happened to see Li Kun walking over with his team of four.
They were all dressed in military gear and one would immediately realize that they were soldiers from their aura and not just some random people wearing military uniform.
"What do you want? There is no rule of law now and even if you are from the military, you can't interfere with our activities." The leader of the large gang of people said even before Li Kun could start talking.
"That's good then. That means that even if I take action against you, I don't have to worry about military law." Li Kun said and raised his eyebrow as if asking the leader if he was okay with that.
"How can you just walk around and interfere in other people's business without scruples?" One of the thugs asked righteously.
"You guys are bullying a little girl together and also using your numbers to suppress others.
Since you don't have any moral bottom line, there is no need for us to be considerate.
Get out of here and we can forget all this ever happened. Or you can face us as well." Li Kun didn't mince his words at all.
Since these people wanted to use their power to oppress others, then he would use the same method against them.
"So, that's your goal. You want us to leave so that you can take the things in the warehouse, right? But we won't entertain you even if you are soldiers.
Now is not the time when attacking a soldier or a police officer would result in grace consequences.
Even if we killed you all here, nothing will happen to us." The gang leader was quite confident.
Li Kun and the others wondered where he got his confident from.
However, they found out when five people in their team revealed themselves to be superpower users. Moreover, one of them had fire and another metal. Thus made them arrogant.
"If you don't want to suffer the same fate as them, then turn around and leave now. There is no need to due for strangers you just met." The monkey looking skinny guy from the gang advised.
