From cannon fodder villain to superpowered queen

The jeep eventually came to a stop on a barren piece of land.

This place should have been a thriving town, but now it is lifeless, with dilapidated houses and parched land, resembling a post-apocalyptic ruin.

As soon as Bi Yao and Jiang Ruiyuan got out of the car, they sensed something was wrong.

"This... is completely different from what the information says!" Bi Yao looked at the scene before her, her face filled with shock.

The records clearly state that this place is rich in resources and has a simple and honest folk culture, so how come now...

Jiang Ruiyuan frowned, looked around, and said in a deep voice, "It seems we've met a tough opponent."

Soon, they understood the meaning of "tough nut to crack".

All local resources, including water, food, and even sunlight, are firmly controlled by a force called "Black Crow".

The townspeople dared not speak out against their anger and could only eke out a living, like a flock of lambs being herded into captivity.

"Hey, where did these two pretty boys come from, daring to cause trouble on Black Crow's territory?" Several burly men in black uniforms blocked their way, their tone extremely arrogant.

Bi Yao and Jiang Ruiyuan explained their purpose, hoping to help the townspeople improve their lives, but were ridiculed by the other party.

"Help them? With your abilities? You should take a good look at yourselves!"

"If you know what's good for you, get out of here and stop getting in my way!" A burly man leading the group glared at them fiercely, as if he was about to attack at any moment.

Bi Yao suppressed her anger and tried to reason with the other party, but was met with even more ruthless humiliation.

"Enough with the nonsense! This is Black Crow's territory, you outsiders should mind your own business!"

"If you dare to interfere again, don't blame us for being impolite!" The burly man's threat pierced Bi Yao's heart like a sharp knife.

Feeling suffocated by a mix of helplessness and resentment, Bi Yao felt a sense of suffocation.

Should we just give up like this?

No, she would never admit defeat!

As night fell, the two returned to their temporary lodging, the atmosphere as heavy as the night outside.

Bi Yao clenched her fists, her eyes gleaming with an indomitable light.

Jiang Ruiyuan looked at her, a slight smile playing on his lips, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his eyes.

"Don't worry, I have a way." He took out a USB drive from his pocket and waved it in front of Bi Yao. "I've already contacted some old friends..." Jiang Ruiyuan smiled mysteriously, turned on his computer, and his fingers flew across the keyboard like a general commanding thousands of troops.

The screen flashed with code, and various data scrolled rapidly, making Bi Yao's eyes dazzled.

"It's done!" Jiang Ruiyuan snapped his fingers excitedly, pointing to the information on the screen and saying, "'Black Crow's' boss is actually a fugitive! Moreover, he is also suspected of smuggling rare minerals, and the evidence is conclusive!" He was beaming, like a child who had discovered a treasure.

The news immediately threw the entire Black Crow organization into chaos.

The eldest brother turned pale with fright, as if he had seen a ghost, and kept muttering "Impossible, impossible..." Bi Yao looked at Jiang Ruiyuan with admiration in her eyes.

"Ruiyuan, you are amazing!" she exclaimed sincerely, as if she had discovered a new world.

However, the story does not end there.

Although the Black Crow boss has fallen from power, his henchmen are still around.

Enraged, the remaining forces decided to take a desperate gamble and sent out a group of vicious thugs to teach Bi Yao and Jiang Ruiyuan a lesson.

"You dare touch our boss? You're asking for trouble!" The thugs charged over menacingly, brandishing various weapons, looking like they were ready to tear them to pieces.

Bi Yao and Jiang Ruiyuan remained calm and composed in the face of danger.

They moved with agility, like two nimble swallows, weaving among the thugs and dodging attack after attack.

The townspeople around them were all worried, their eyes fixed on them with concern.

"Watch out!" Bi Yao grabbed Jiang Ruiyuan, dodging a fatal attack.

"Yaoyao, hold on tight to me!" Jiang Ruiyuan grabbed Bi Yao's hand in return, his eyes resolute.

Just then, Bi Yao felt a strange energy surging into her body from the thug's weapon...

"What...what is this feeling?" Bi Yao murmured to herself.

Jiang Ruiyuan also noticed Bi Yao's unusual behavior. "Yao Yao, what's wrong?"

Bi Yao felt a surge of heat coursing through her body, sweeping away her previous fatigue and replacing it with an unprecedented sense of strength.

The light emanating from her grew brighter and brighter, illuminating the entire night sky like a small sun.

"Holy crap, what's going on?" The thugs were dumbfounded, and their weapons involuntarily fell to the ground.

This girl, is she cheating?

Bi Yao's lips curled up slightly, revealing a wicked smile.

"That's it?" She flashed, moving like a ghost among the thugs.

Every punch and every kick carried immense force, making them cry out in pain and beg for mercy, their teeth chattering on the ground.

"Oh dear, I'm sorry, I was a little too rough." Bi Yao covered her mouth, feigning surprise, but she couldn't hide the smile in her eyes.

Jiang Ruiyuan looked at Bi Yao, who resembled a war goddess, his eyes filled with satisfaction and pride.

His girl is truly the best!

His lips curled slightly upward, and his eyes were so tender they seemed to drip with affection.

After the battle ended and the smoke cleared, Bi Yao leaned gently against Jiang Ruiyuan's chest, like a lazy kitten.

Her eyes were full of dependence and adoration, and her delicate appearance evoked pity.

"Ruiyuan, thank you." Her voice was as soft as a feather, tickling Jiang Ruiyuan's heart.

Jiang Ruiyuan held Bi Yao tightly, resting his chin on the top of her head, feeling her body temperature.

His eyes were firm yet gentle, as if he were guarding the most precious treasure in the world.

"Fool, don't thank me. Protecting you is what I should do." The townspeople around watched this scene with envy in their eyes.

What an amazing love story!

Although they had eliminated the scourge of Black Crow, Bi Yao and Jiang Ruiyuan keenly sensed that a hidden force was secretly watching them.

As night deepened, a cool breeze blew by, and Bi Yao instinctively wrapped her clothes tighter.

Jiang Ruiyuan gripped her hand tightly, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

“It seems things aren’t over yet…” He took Bi Yao’s hand and led her into the darkness.
