Chapter 146 It turns out there was a backup plan.
Yun Juan had no intention of arguing with these people any longer!
She was thinking about her little Qingmiao at home, who was eagerly waiting for her to come back so she could eat delicious meat buns.
By now, those mischievous little devils had long since disappeared, so she no longer needed to hold back and could unleash her full potential!
Yun Juan put her hands on her hips, her sharp gaze sweeping over the group, and then shouted, "Hmph! Stop dawdling, if you've got the guts, come at me all at once! My stomach is growling, let's finish this quickly!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she wiped away the casual smile that had been on her lips, and her expression instantly became serious and cold.
The bearded man standing to the side was the manager of the place; he was not a simple-minded person who would underestimate his opponents.
Even though he had just heard his men speak rudely to Yun Juan, his judgment was not swayed by their words.
On the contrary, upon hearing Yun Juan's defiant declaration, he couldn't help but frown again, feeling even more that this woman was not to be underestimated, and his whole demeanor became increasingly serious.
Seeing that Yun Juan had nowhere to escape, the bearded man grabbed the gleaming double-ringed broadsword beside him without saying a word, raised it high, and was about to slash it down at Yun Juan.
Faced with this overwhelming attack, Yun Juan knew there was no way to avoid it. Without hesitation, she swung her right hand and hurled the grenade she was holding in her palm into the enemy crowd with lightning speed...
In the instant the grenade hit the ground with a thud, time seemed to freeze for just one second, but that brief second was enough to trigger a cataclysmic change.
With a deafening roar, the entire space was engulfed in a violent impact and dazzling flames.
Some of them didn't even have time to react before they suddenly felt a wave of scalding heat rushing towards them, instantly engulfing their entire bodies.
Some people felt a sudden heat on their face, as if they were being burned by a raging fire, followed by a splash of warm liquid on their cheeks.
The liquid spread rapidly, some even obscuring vision and making everything blurry.
Instinctively, they stretched out their hands and frantically rubbed their eyes, trying to clear away the unidentified objects obstructing their view as quickly as possible.
However, as soon as they wiped it away, their eyes fell on the ground, and they were horrified by what they saw – the ground was littered with severed limbs and flying flesh, and the stench of blood was nauseating.
At the same time, they looked down at their palms and were shocked to find them covered in bright red blood.
At that moment, fear surged into my heart like a tidal wave, and my legs involuntarily went weak and trembled.
They simply couldn't believe that the seemingly ordinary, unremarkable blonde girl could single-handedly inflict such heavy damage on so many of them.
Of course, it wasn't that no one in the crowd noticed the previous details.
A few people witnessed Yun Juan throw out a dark object, and then, just seconds later, this terrible disaster struck.
Some experienced individuals even recognized the black object at a glance as the legendary Thunderfire.
"It's Thunderfire! She's holding Thunderfire!" Someone shouted this first, their voice booming through the air like thunder.
This statement was like a bombshell dropped into the crowd, instantly causing a huge uproar.
All eyes turned to Yun Juan, their eyes filled with astonishment, fear, and disbelief.
People who had previously looked down on this little girl have now completely changed their minds. Who would have thought that she, who seemed so frail, would actually possess such a terrifying weapon?
The lightning fire that Yun Quan held tightly in her hand was completely different from the lightning fire that everyone had mentioned.
It is not a thunderbolt in the traditional sense, but a new product of the new century after many improvements.
Even so, after careful modification, the power of the Thunderfire in Yun Quan's hands is many times greater than that of similar weapons commonly found in modern times!
In modern times, because Yun Quan is on a special mission, the weapons she wields are the most powerful.
However, the current spatial environment restricts the use of such a powerful weapon; otherwise, it could have razed the entire place to the ground.
After all, these weapons were specially modified to deal with special situations and can be considered the best of the world's top weapons.
Not to mention that it was top-notch for Yun Quan's era, even if it were placed in a relatively backward dynasty, it would be an existence that was absolutely unattainable and difficult to reach!
Just then, a few of the more timid people in the crowd, seeing that no one was paying attention to them, secretly rejoiced and tiptoed slowly in the opposite direction, trying to take the opportunity to slip away.
After one of them successfully escaped, it seemed to trigger a chain reaction, with more and more people beginning to realize the preciousness of life.
After all, even if the wages offered here are quite generous, what use is all that money if one's life is in danger?
It's important to understand that they weren't professionally trained Deadpools, but simply ordinary able-bodied men recruited from various remote villages.
Hearing that there was money to be made here, they rushed over excitedly to work. But now, with their lives hanging in the balance, who cares about that little bit of money?
Looking at the bearded man again, just now when Yun Quan threw the grenade in his hand into the crowd, he instantly sensed that something was wrong based on his keen intuition and years of experience in the martial arts world, and that he was definitely not a good person.
So, he dodged and narrowly escaped death, thus remaining unharmed.
At that moment, when he caught sight of someone daring to leave without permission behind him, a sly glint flashed in his eyes.
Without making a sound, he subtly winked at a few people in the crowd. They immediately understood and swiftly drew their sharp long knives from their waists. With a flash of cold light, the knives were already firmly held against the necks of the people who had just tried to escape.
Upon seeing this, Yun Juan couldn't help but smack her lips, inwardly sighing, "I never would have guessed! It turns out that there really is a Death Servant hidden among this rabble!"
No wonder these people didn't show the slightest panic or even any emotion when she threw the grenade.
It turns out he was Deadpool planted in the crowd. No wonder the bearded man wasn't flustered at all when he saw him pull out a hidden weapon. He had a backup plan. This explanation seems reasonable.
