My Lady, To Defeat Scumbags You Must Start Early - Chapter 578
Chapter 578: Chapter 577: Life-and-Death Struggle (First Update)
“Ye Shengheng, doesn’t this scene feel somewhat…familiar?” Leng Wanqing sneered at the man before her, her smile particularly wicked.
Ji Baijian couldn’t afford to be distracted.
He was incessantly wrestling with the inexhaustible pack of wolves before him.
The ceaseless snapping wolves lunged for them.
Song Zhidao, possessing mere combat power, couldn’t hold on for much longer, his body already bearing countless bite wounds.
Ji Baijian had to protect Song Zhidao too.
Leng Wanqing watched the spectacle before her, laughing in an unhinged frenzy.
Just like before.
It was exactly how Ye Shengheng was once bitten to death, piece by piece.
The difference was, this time Ye Shengheng seemed to put up a stronger resistance than before.
But what could that do?
Inevitably, they would exhaust themselves to death.
Her mouth curled into an evil grin as she eagerly waited for the moment Ye Shengheng would fall, waited for the wolves to tear Ye Shengheng till nothing was left!
The scene turned bloodthirsty.
Ji Baijian ceaselessly kicked the wolves approaching them.
Song Zhidao was doing the same behind Ji Baijian
However,
He was running out of stamina.
It wouldn’t be long before he’d run out.
His eyes burned a fiery red as he stared at the encroaching wolves, their keen teeth jaws snapping away at them non-stop.
“Ah!” Song Zhidao screamed.
A wolf had latched onto his calf.
Hearing Song Zhidao’s cry, Ji Baijian instantly turned and delivered a forceful kick to the wolf still clenching Song Zhidao’s calf. The wolf yelped in pain and released Song Zhidao.
Song Zhidao’s calf was now a bloody mess, blood flowing non-stop.
Ji Baijian, busy driving off the wolf clinging onto Song Zhidao, was bitten on his arm by another wolf taking the opportunity to attack.
Ji Baijian, straining every muscle, shook the wolf off.
His arm was also reduced to a bloody pulp.
Leng Wanqing merely watched.
And laughed with crazy delight.
Watching Ye Shengheng once more doomed to death before her very eyes.
Destined to bleed to death, destined to be ripped apart by the wolves, leaving nothing behind.
Leng Wanqing felt unaccountably exhilarated.
Each time she killed, she felt an indescribable thrill, the sight of blood and gruesome flesh ignited a peculiar excitement in her.
She said, “Ye Shengheng, in this life, or the next, you will never be a match for me!”
Can never beat her.
She could think of countless ways for Ye Shengheng to die.
The pack of wolves were raised by her men, and she typically refrains from feeding them, only letting them feast on human meat.
At this moment, the wolves were starved for a whole week.
The prospect of fresh blood and flesh should excite them more than her.
Leng Wanqing was uncontrollably hysterical.
Song Zhidao really couldn’t hold on anymore.
He suddenly knelt on the ground.
Barely a moment after he knelt,
Ji Baijian swiftly pulled Song Zhidao to him, yelling, “Pull yourself together!”
Song Zhidao stood up, but it was clear his mental fortitude was crumbling as he said, “I really can’t, I really can’t anymore…”
He had no strength left, and it felt as though his body was disconnecting from reality. Perhaps in the next second, he would collapse again.
“Hold on a little longer, someone will come to rescue us!”
But Song Zhidao didn’t share Ji Baijian’s conviction.
Because he had already reached his limits.
He said, “Brother-in-law, I’m sorry.”
Ji Baijian’s brows furrowed.
“I’m sorry. I always thought I was capable, I always thought I was ambitious, but now I know, I’m just foolish.”
“Don’t talk, conserve your strength!”
But Song Zhidao had no strength left to conserve.
Perhaps it would be the very next second, when he’d be hurled to the ground by the countless wolves swarming before him, becoming their meal completely.
He said, “In this life, the person I’ve wronged the most, is my sister. She has done so much for our family, she truly wanted to help us, but we just kept using her, letting her down. I hope, I hope you won’t blame my sister…”
“Don’t say anymore Song Zhidao.”
“I really can’t hold on anymore.” Song Zhidao’s body reeled.
He looked as though he was about to collapse.
Ji Baijian supported him.
At the same time, an endless surge of wolves ceaselessly lunges towards them.
Ji Baijian kicked them off, while the ferocious wolves launched themselves at them.
Ji Baijian’s body was bitten horribly, almost none of his skin were left intact.
Even then, he still did his best to protect Song Zhidao.
Song Zhidao, with all his remaining strength, pushed Ji Baijian away.
He said, “You don’t have to do this for me, don’t waste your energy on me…”
“I made a promise to Song Zhizhi, to protect her family.”
“What kind of family am I? I brought you all to this point…” Tears streamed ceaselessly down Song Zhidao’s face.
Even at this state,
Why did his sister still want to protect him?
He knew very clearly, Ji Baijian would only be doing this because his sister must have said something to him before, which is why he was still not giving up on him.
He was filled with regret.
If there is an afterlife, if there is an afterlife, he will definitely not blindly continue on this path.
His body tensed.
At that moment, he saw a wolf leaping from the ground, charging straight for his face.
But he couldn’t muster any strength to retaliate.
He could only watch as the wolf closed in on him, prepared to face his death.
But at that moment,
Ji Baijian blocked for him once again.
Using his body, he shielded Song Zhidao from the wolf attempting to snap his neck.
The wolf bit into Ji Baijian’s body.
“Rip…” Tearing through his clothing and the flesh on his chest.
At that moment, Ji Baijian was under attack from the wolf. Under the weight and speed of the wolf, he was forced to retreat several steps.
At that moment, there was no chance for any respite.
The surrounding wolves wouldn’t give them time. They would only rush at them madly, desperate to devour all the flesh from their bodies.
Song Zhidao said, “Ji Baijian, I’ll use my body as bait, you find an opportunity to escape…”
“We can both escape!” He believed someone would come.
Someone would definitely come.
“All I hope is that if you can survive, to treat my sister well. She’s really a good woman.”
Ji Baijian didn’t respond.
Though his body was in an appalling state at the moment,
He clung onto a single thought.
He felt that this time, he wouldn’t just die like that.
Not this time!
As long as Song Zhizhi could figure out how to save him.
He was already at his limit now.
But he kept hanging on the edge, never giving up.
He told himself he believed in Song Zhizhi, he believed she could find a way!
“Ji Baijian, tell my sister, I truly love her…”
Having said that.
Song Zhidao was so weak that he didn’t want to resist anymore.
His whole body was numb from the pain of his wounds.
Now his spirit was scattered, his vision was blurred, everywhere he looked there were doubles, even the world he saw was alternating between black and white…
“Song Zhidao!” Ji Baijian yelled at him, “Hang on! Song Zhizhi will find a way to save us!”
Ji Baijian’s voice.
Seemed to bring Song Zhidao abruptly back to consciousness.
He felt as if his body had been grabbed by Ji Baijian, who was then protecting him, blocking the dogs attacking from all sides.
He noticed that Ji Baijian’s body was no better than his own.
Yet Ji Baijian would never give up until the last moment, always pushing him to hang on…
He might now understand why his sister had said that Ji Baijian had what it took to resist the authorities and they didn’t.
Just because of his will-power alone.
He was simply annihilated by Ji Baijian.
Because he was very clear that Ji Baijian was probably not in any better condition than him at this moment.
And yet he was able to remain strong and standing throughout!
At this moment, in the sky above.
Song Zhizhi was pulled into the helicopter by Wei Ziming.
Her eyes bloodshot, she watched as countless dogs kept biting into Ji Baijian and Song Zhidao in the forest. The next second, or perhaps the one after that, they’d have their throats bitten.
No.
Song Zhizhi called out to Wei Ziming, who was piloting the helicopter, “We can’t just leave like this! We can’t leave!”
Wei Ziming’s lips were tightly pressed together.
His expression was heavy, but he didn’t stop.
He didn’t stop. The helicopter spiraled upwards, leaving.
“Brother Ziming, I beg you not to leave. We really can’t leave! Ji Baijian and Song Zhidao are still down there, they can’t die!”
She can’t let them die.
She can’t even begin to imagine what it would be like if Ji Baijian really dies…
She felt a surge of fear.
She didn’t dare to think further.
She grabbed Wei Ziming, “Brother Ziming, go back, let’s go back now!”
“What can you do if you go back?” asked Wei Ziming, “Can we save Ji Baijian and Song Zhidao if we go back? With our current abilities, even if we return, it would only be to die with them!”
“Even dying with them is fine!” Song Zhizhi exclaimed loudly.
The force with which she spoke made her throat ache with pain.
“Song Zhizhi, you must know you are still carrying a child!” Wei Ziming said forcibly.
Song Zhizhi’s heart stirred.
She had nearly forgotten.
She was still pregnant.
She involuntarily touched her belly.
She didn’t know if her baby was still safe after being tortured like this for a day and a night…
But.
She doesn’t have time to think about all that now.
She said, “Wei Ziming, I want to go back!”
Very determined.
She can’t let Ji Baijian and Song Zhidao just die like this.
She can’t let them die!
“We can’t go back!” Wei Ziming denied categorically, “The most important thing for us now is to stay alive, not to die with them!”
“Wei Ziming!”
“Song Zhizhi!” Wei Ziming was also furious, his voice loud, “Be rational, I believe Ji Baijian and Song Zhidao wouldn’t want you to die with them!”
“But I don’t want to survive alone!”
“I will accompany you!” Wei Ziming said forcefully.
“I don’t need your company, I just want Ji Baijian!” Song Zhizhi roared.
She was emotionally charged, her body trembling, as if she was using all her strength to tell Wei Ziming.
She must return.
We Ziming’s throat moved.
Song Zhizhi said, “I can’t be this cruel to Ji Baijian, he’s really done too much for me, so much that I don’t know how to repay him. If he dies now and dies for me, how can I go on, how could I possibly live on my own, Brother Ziming, I plead with you, let me go back, let me go back. Even if I’m going to die, I want to die with Ji Baijian.”
We Ziming clenched his teeth.
His emotions were on the verge of breakdown.
He selfishly didn’t want to let Song Zhizhi go back.
At this moment, while all of Leng Wanqing’s attention was on Ji Baijian, they could easily escape.
But if they went back now, they would undoubtedly die.
And all he wanted was for Song Zhizhi to stay alive.
He couldn’t care less about the others.
“Brother Ziming, I swear, if Ji Baijian dies, I won’t live either.” Song Zhizhi told him gravely.
She owes Ji Baijian too much in this life.
If Ji Baijian died.
She couldn’t go on living.
Wei Ziming’s face turned cold.
He knew Song Zhizhi wasn’t threatening him.
He knew if anything happened to Ji Baijian, Song Zhizhi wouldn’t survive either.
He clenched his teeth.
He said, “We need to think of a way to save Ji Baijian, not rush back to our deaths!”
Song Zhizhi knew Wei Ziming had compromised.
But the condition for compromise was finding a way to save them.
“Otherwise it’s truly pointless.” Wei Ziming said with conviction.
Song Zhizhi nodded.
Wei Ziming was right.
They were going back to save people, not deliver themselves to death.
They had to find a way to make sure no one would die.
With the current situation.
Hundreds of dogs were tearing at Ji Baijian, not even machine-gun fire could stop them, and it might even hit Ji Baijian and Song Zhidao.
Bombs were out of the question, bombing would simply ensure their mutual destruction, moreover, they had no bombs left!
What other ways were there?
What other means could they find that would wipe out all the dogs at once!
Jun Mingyu?
Could they ask Jun Mingyu for reinforcements?!
Not to mention that Jun Mingyu had offered no help throughout the night, even if Jun Mingyu decided to mobilize forces for their sake now, by the time help arrived, Ji Baijian and Song Zhidao may have already succumbed!
