Chapter 640: Chapter 599: Big Brother, This Kid’s Weird! (3)_2
The leader of the men sneered and, turning to his drooling henchmen, said, "Xiaolong, Dashan, you two go and untie her from the tree first!"
"Got it, Boss!" the two youths replied, rushing over impatiently.
"You’re courting death! All of you!"
As soon as their hands touched her body, Amber gritted her teeth and roared with the last of her strength. However, the two youths ignored her, continuing to untie the ropes while groping her.
"Fucking hurry up! You can touch her all you want when it’s your turn!" the leader bellowed, seeing his men dawdling as he unbuckled his own belt.
"Yes, yes, Boss," the two youths responded sheepishly after being scolded. "Um, should we tie up her hands and feet?"
"Are you fucking stupid? Tying her up is illegal! In her current state, she couldn’t run even if you told her to!" the leader snapped, swiftly pulling off his belt.
During their exchange, the newly untied Amber collapsed to the ground. Her body was utterly limp and weak. Forget resisting; she couldn’t even walk if they let her go.
Monstrous killing intent swirled in her eyes as she lay on the ground, staring daggers at the leader. In a weak, broken voice, she said, "You’ll regret this. You will definitely regret this!"
"We can talk about regrets later, my beauty. First, let your big brother here take good care of you! A beautiful pie falls from the sky, and if I don’t take a bite, it would be a crime against heaven itself! Haha!"
With his eyes blazing with naked, fiery desire, the leader lunged forward.
Just as he was about to throw himself on the defenseless Amber, a mocking voice suddenly materialized out of thin air.
"That beauty pie might be poisonous!"
WHOOSH!
Startled by the sudden voice, the leader shuddered violently, instinctively halting his advance. He spun around furiously and bellowed before even seeing who it was, "Fucking hell! Who—who’s there? Who’s talking?!"
"Yeah, who the fuck is it?! Come out!"
Following the leader’s cry, the rest of the henchmen grew agitated, looking around and shouting angrily.
Lying on the ground, the weakened, nearly immobile Amber burst into tears upon hearing that voice.
After all, no matter how tough she was, she was still a woman. In this moment of utter hopelessness, she had completely given up on being rescued. Yet, in the depths of her despair, that voice shattered all her mental defenses. She hadn’t cried when she fell into Chen Tiansheng’s hands. She hadn’t cried when she was tied to a tree, gripped by the terror of the unknown. She hadn’t even cried when facing the imminent assault from this band of thugs. Though she had cried earlier out of guilt and self-reproach for failing to protect Jiang Yino, those were tears of hatred and remorse. But now, she was moved. Tears of gratitude, an emotion she had never truly felt before, streamed down her face. She had imagined being rescued in a thousand different ways, but never once did she think Qin Fan would be the one to save her. It was already a miracle that he hadn’t killed her; she would never have dared to dream he would become her lifeline! Yet against all odds, Qin Fan had appeared.
"I’m sorry, Master! I’m sorry, I’m so sorry!"
At that moment, Amber cried her heart out, her face an absolute mess of tears in an instant. This was a side of her that had never been seen before.
"It’s not your fault. I was the one who underestimated the consequences of my mistake."
From the other side of the Shrub Forest, Qin Fan walked out with his hands clasped behind his back, having heard Amber’s remorseful cries. The mocking look on his face had vanished, replaced by a grim expression.
"Holy fuck! This little shit is trying to act all mysterious and show off? The ignorant fool! Get him!" the leader bellowed, first stunned by Qin Fan’s appearance, then consumed by rage.
At his command, the group of henchmen rushed ferociously toward Qin Fan.
Ignoring the thugs crawling toward him like tortoises, Qin Fan looked at Amber on the ground and asked, "Should I deal with them, or do you want to?"
"Master, let me kill them!" Amber said through gritted teeth, even though she could barely move.
She knew that if Qin Fan was offering, he must have a way to make it possible. After all, she had witnessed countless incredible feats from him. He had transformed her hideous Yaksha face, which she’d had to hide from the world, into the beauty of a Heavenly Immortal with a simple ointment. A single Elixir had elevated her Martial Arts Cultivation. For a master as heaven-defying as him, restoring her strength would surely be a simple matter.
"Alright! Catch!"
Sidestepping a youth’s punch, Qin Fan summoned an Elixir from his storage space and tossed it swiftly toward Amber. The bare Elixir landed with precision right by her mouth.
Without a second thought, she lifted a trembling, weak hand, struggled to pick up the Elixir, and immediately swallowed it.
The next moment, a wave of warmth surged through her drained body.
Seeing Amber’s complexion slowly shift from pale to rosy, Qin Fan let out a quiet breath and smiled faintly. He continued to effortlessly dodge the attacks from these ant-like foes, never once striking back.
"Boss, this guy is unnatural!" one of the youths shouted anxiously, seeing that their successive waves of attacks from five or six men couldn’t even touch Qin Fan.
