the other side.

Abandoned factory.

The dim moonlight blurred the moon's glow, casting soft rays of light.

The factory, without power, was eerily silent and dark.

The cool, silvery light fell into the factory, attempting to sweep away the excessively deep darkness.

"clatter--"

"clatter--"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The footsteps had barely gotten close when, in the next instant, came the sound of heavy objects hitting the ground.

A group of tall, muscular men in black stood respectfully and in perfect unison in the corner.

They quickly brought over a group of students who looked rather young and inexperienced.

Upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that this group of students are from the St. Lia's special admissions class.

They looked around in terror, their hearts filled with an overwhelming sense of dread that seemed to swallow them whole.

Some students with poor mental fortitude broke down and shouted, "What are you trying to do?!"

"I'm warning you, if my dad finds out I'm gone, he'll definitely call the police and have you arrested!"

Some voices were trembling with sobs: "Where...where am I? Kidnapping is illegal! Let me go home!"

The originally sensitive and timid crowd felt a great sense of security upon hearing the leader's question, which gave them a strong sense of confidence.

Voices of resistance arose immediately.

It was as if justice had already been quietly sown among them.

After all, there are so many people here.

We can't possibly kill them all to silence them, can we?

The law will punish the murderer.

Therefore, they upheld justice:

"Let me go! If you don't let me go, you'll all be finished once my mom calls the police!"

"Help! Someone's kidnapping me!"

"Let me go!"

"If you dare to lay a finger on me, my father will never let you get away with it!"

Fierce roars came one after another, like waves crashing one after another, gradually filling the entire factory, like a cup of water about to overflow because it was too full.

But the group of men in black remained unmoved and deaf to their pleas, as if even if Mount Tai collapsed before them, they could stare straight ahead without changing their expressions and await their master's orders.

"Hey! Aren't you afraid of retribution for kidnapping us?"

That very sentence drew a voice from someone who didn't belong here.

"Ah."

“报应?”

"If there really is retribution, why hasn't it killed you yet?"

A clear, melodious voice, as light and cheerful as a silver bell, rang out.

It was an excessively sweet voice, yet it was filled with endless sarcasm that chilled to the bone.

Everyone involuntarily looked toward the source of the sound, in a corner untouched by moonlight.

In the darkness, a dark figure emerged from the shadows.

Her petite body appeared weak and powerless.

The girl was wearing a long black robe, and the large hood of the robe covered her entire face.

The moment he saw the girl coming.

The group of men in black who had remained motionless finally loosened their grip.

They shouted in unison, "Boss!"

The leader of the men in black lowered his head, his posture submissive, and his voice low: "As you instructed, we have brought the person here."

"Ah."

"After you are untied, you may leave."

"Yes!"

As soon as the girl gave the order, the men in black immediately began to untie the ropes binding their hands and feet, and then quickly retreated from the scene.

They retreated to the background, stood guard at the door, and waited for the next instruction.

The students in the special admissions class had just been freed from their restraints, and with the men in black gone, only the girl was standing in front of them. Most of them regained their confidence and their earlier panic was gone.

"Run!"

"go!"

They ran towards the exit on their own, completely ignoring the seemingly harmless girl.

Those who reacted quickly had already started running, while those who reacted slowly followed closely behind.

Only a few people were overly cautious, remaining where they were, trembling with fear, afraid to move, lest it be a trap.

Apart from those who dared not, the others sluggishly strode toward the door, ignoring the girl blocking their way.

Just as the fastest runner was about to overtake the girl—

With lightning speed, the girl grabbed the boy in front by the collar and flung him away like a ping-pong ball!

The boy, thrown out like a projectile hurtling through the air, was slammed heavily against the wall.

It delivered a deep, resounding, and most intimidating blow:

"Boom!"

The next second, the girl calmly flung away the other boys who were also running up to her!

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"boom--"

Their bodies were slammed to the ground, kicking up clouds of dust!

moment.

The students who had been thrown out finally realized they had been thrown, and the pain finally caught up with their injuries, bringing their dazed minds back to reality. They collapsed and screamed in agony.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!!"

The slower students, upon hearing the horrific scream, instinctively stopped, their legs trembling uncontrollably, and stared in astonishment at the girl before them.

this moment.

They were afraid again.

When Liu Qingting saw this scene, she turned pale with fright and couldn't help but let out a soft cry: "Ah!"

Liu Qingting's eyes quickly filled with tears. She took a step back and instinctively tried to take Wen Yu's arm.

But when she thought of how Wen Yu had caused her to be kicked out of Saint Lia, a wave of disgust washed over her, and she forcefully stopped this inappropriate habit.

The factory, which should have been quiet, was now filled with screams and chaotic breathing.

The fear on everyone's faces was a painful reminder to those around them.

Fear spread among them.

Finally, someone couldn't take it anymore.

One of the girls screamed in despair:

"Who are you? What do you want?! I beg you, please let me go! I have no grudge against you!"

"I'll give you anything you want, please let me go back! I really can't take it anymore!"

next moment.

The girl looked up indifferently, and the girl who had been facing away from the darkness took a few steps forward towards them.

The group of people took a few steps back in fear.

"clatter--"

"clatter--"

The rhythmic footsteps echoed through the empty factory, as if stepping on their hearts, making the group even more terrified. They couldn't stop swallowing, their bodies covered in fine beads of sweat, and their hearts pounded wildly and erratically.

At this moment, they are like taut strings, either snapping or being flung out of control.

The girl approached step by step.

Her steps finally landed at the window.

A veil of silver moonlight draped over her body, coating her in a layer of silver armor that protected her from blades and spears.

She took off her hat, revealing a stunningly beautiful face to everyone.

The girl's exquisite face was as white as jade, her straight and slightly curled eyelashes were as soft as peach blossom fans, her round almond eyes were like a beautiful and clear lake, and her small lips were cold at this moment.

She was as clear and beautiful as the morning dew, yet she was covered by a layer of frost before dawn.

The moment everyone saw her face, they were all momentarily stunned. Apart from Yan Weixi, this was the first time they had ever seen someone so beautiful.

But someone recognized her, their voice trembling: "Li Yao! How could it be you?!"

Upon hearing that it was Li Yao, the others were stunned.

The beautiful, aloof girl in front of them was actually the ugly, four-eyed girl they had always looked down on?!

The student who had always bullied Li Yao stared wide-eyed in disbelief upon hearing this:

"This is Li Yao? How is that possible! Li Yao can't possibly be this beautiful!"

A sudden wave of regret washed over him.

If he had known how beautiful Li Yao was, he wouldn't have bullied her!
