Chapter 586: What Can You Do to Me?
“Oh, not at all. It’s just a misunderstanding,” answered Xu Li reluctantly.
Actually, Xiang Xuehai’s guess was right. Xu Li just wanted to rob the tank and use it for his own purposes. However, Zhang Hai and Sun Kun refuse to obey his orders, so he attacked them. In Northern Jiangsu, such actions were forbidden. It was one of Xiang Xuehai’s ironclad rules. No matter who acted like that, they would all get severely punished or even killed on the spot.
After doomsday, humanity’s ugly side was in full bloom. Some people liked to bully others, especially women, just because they had acquired powerful abilities. Xiang Xuehai had everything under strict control and took such cases seriously, so it was natural that many people disliked her. Fortunately, Xiang Xuehai was powerful enough to suppress them. At the same time, she was the one who had established the Northern Jiangsu Camp, so nobody dared to voice their opinions in that region.
Xu Li was not an honorable man, and he wanted to do many immoral things. As such, he was afraid of Xiang Xuehai.
“Misunderstanding? Really? I don’t think so. Moreover, I instructed you to guard the Northern Jiangsu. Why are you here? How about the other survivors in our camp?”
“This…well…” Xu Li was at a loss.
After Xiang Xuehai left to ask for help from outside, all the people in the camp had gradually stopped abiding by her rules. In this terrible world, only strength mattered. Initially, Xiang Xuehai wanted to establish a Base City, so she needed to protect many ordinary survivors. However, her followers did not share the same ambition. Some of them just wanted to savor the feeling of being supreme over others due to their power. Xu li was one of them. After Xiang Xuehai’s departure, he had also decided to leave and several girls to accompany him. Jinling was the place he had chosen to live a carefree life. However, it had never crossed his mind that he would meet Xiang Xuehai again, and here of all places.
“How many are with you? I left to find help and rebuild our camp, but you disobeyed my orders. Lead me to the others and follow me back!” roared Xiang Xuehai.
Xu Li was dejected. Although he was afraid of Xiang Xuehai, he thought it through and shook off his fear. “Miss Xiang, I don’t want to follow you back,” said Xu Li directly.
“Huh?” Xiang Xuehai frowned.
“It’s not only me. Actually, the others from Northern Jiangsu also share the same thought. We don’t want to establish the so-called Base City. In this treacherous world, we just want to enjoy our lives. This is Jinling, not Northern Jiangsu,” explained Xu Li. He was becoming bolder, while his intention was clear. He didn’t want to be under Xiang Xuehai’s control anymore. By relying on his abilities, he could eat the best food and conquer many beauties.
“Miss Xiang, it’s you who helped me to become stronger, and for that, I’m really grateful. But I don’t like being under someone else’s control all the time. As for the tank, I’m giving up on it. This is all I can do to return your favor. From now on, we’ll be strangers. As for the others from Northern Jiangsu, you should better give up. None of them want to follow you back.”
“Oh? You don’t want the tank now? Really?” All of a sudden, Jiang Liushi’s voice sounded while he was walking down from his tour bus. He knew clearly that Xiang Xuehai could not convince the young man standing in front of them. She could no longer restrain her subordinates.
Upon seeing Jiang Liushi, Xu Li asked, “Who are you?” When he noticed the sniper rifle in Jiang Liushi’s hand, he understood. “It’s you who attacked me!”
“Yes, you are right. We were too far apart at that moment, or else you’d be a rotting corpse by now,” said Jiang Liushi coldly.
“What?” Xu Li smiled. He almost felt that he had heard something funny. How dared the man before him to threaten him?
“Young boy, you’re courting for death! You should be careful. This is Shen Hai’s territory, how dare you to be so arrogant? You wanted to kill me? Hmph! If not for giving face to Miss Xiang, I would love to bring you back and chop off your limbs.”
Then, Xu Li looked at Xiang Xuehai. “Miss Xiang, this is the last time I’m giving you face. I’m willing to forget his attack. You may take him back with you…” In Xu li’s eyes, Jiang Liushi shared a special relationship with Xiang Xuehai, and that was also the reason he dared to be so arrogant.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Liushi continued smiling coldly.
Xu Li frowned and looked at Jiang Liushi. “You dare to keep smiling?”
“Haha, how about fighting against me? I want to see what will happen,” said Jiang Liushi tauntingly.
Xu Li was annoyed. Since Jiang Liushi had asked, Xu Li did not want to waste a good chance.
Xu Li sneered. “Good idea, I will make you suffer.”
As he spoke, Jiang Liushi suddenly had a slight tingling sensation in his body. But it was too weak. In the next moment, Jiang Zhuying appeared next to her brother and touched his back with a bright smile. All of a sudden, Jiang Liushi felt good again.
Upon noticing that Jiang Liushi was still okay, Xu Li was thunderstruck. “How is it possible? Nothing happened?” In his mind, Jiang Liushi should have been crying on the ground.
Then, he noticed the girl who was holding Jiang Liushi. She was grinning! Then, Jiang Zhuying said to him, “Your current is too weak. Even if I were not here, my brother could have dealt with it.”
‘This kind of electric attack is really rare,’ thought Jiang Liushi.
When Xu Li had attacked Zhang Hai and Sun Kun inside the tank, Jiang Liushi had felt it was a bit strange. It was impossible for the tank’s passengers to be affected by electric attacks. Its construction was similar to an airplane. If it were to be struck by lightning, the passengers inside would not be harmed. However, Xu Li’s special ability surpassed common sense. He could attack Sun Kun and Zhang Hai in the tank directly. It seemed that he could create the voltage between the human body and the tank.
Jiang Liushi had not seen Xu Li releasing an electric attack, but he could feel the current in his body. But what Jiang Zhuying had said, was also right. Xu Li’s current was too weak. Jiang Liushi was always in his sister’s current scope, so any current weaker than hers was ineffective against him. However, if an electric attack lasted for a long time, it would hurt Jiang Liushi. Nevertheless, as long as Jiang Zhuying was present, nobody would have such a chance.
“It’s my turn, right?” asked Jiang Liushi gleefully.
All of a sudden, Xu Li felt a strong sense of danger. Without reacting at all, Jiang Liushi had rushed to him. Jiang Liushi’s battle prowess had improved once more. He could be regarded as a level-2 paranormal. Moreover, he could activate his brain domain. Therefore, in Jiang Liushi’s field of vision, Xu Li’s speed was as slow as a turtle. He kicked Xu Li on the knee, causing Xu Li to cry and to kneel down directly. Not letting him off, Jiang Liushi punched Xu Li in the face, breaking his nose! Soon, blood oozed out from the broken nose.
In the next instant, a cold barrel was pressed against Xu Li’s forehead. The pitiful young man could help but tremble in fear.
“No! Stop! Brother! Miss Xiang, help me!” shouted Xu Li.
“Didn’t you just say that we were strangers from now on?” Xiang Xuehai looked coldly at Xu Li and said, “Even if Captain Jiang hadn’t made a move, I would still punish you severely.”
Xiang Xuehai could not lose face before Jiang Liushi due to a mere Xu Li. In Xiang Xuehai’s mind, Xu Li got what he deserved.
