67: Chapter 67 Lu Yingman Causes Trouble

The Fat Pig Man suddenly turned his head, looking over vigilantly.

The other men beside him simultaneously grabbed the iron rods and kitchen knives in their hands.

Qi Yin cursed under her breath and simply walked out from behind the stairs.

She had picked up a tree branch along the way; her slender, thin figure appeared particularly conspicuous in the cold wind.

Qi Yin's appearance stunned the group for a moment.

Especially a skinny, sharp-featured man next to the Fat Pig Man.

The way he looked at Qi Yin was incredibly lecherous, and drool was about to spill from the corner of his mouth.

"Brother Zhu, this little girl is dressed so lightly in such cold weather, she must be out here to seduce someone. How about we take her in?"

Maybe we can even get a taste.

Fortunately, although the Fat Pig Man was not a good person, he had a bit of discernment.

He slapped the thin monkey-like man on the head, frustrated by his lack of sense.

"Open your dog eyes and take a good look. She's clean; does she look like a refugee to you? You have a pig brain."

"Oh..."

Subsequently, the Fat Pig Man fixed his gaze on Qi Yin again.

This girl had a rosy complexion and a calm demeanor.

She was clearly not one of them.

Both sides were sizing each other up.

Until Lu Yingman, who was slumped on the ground, saw Qi Yin.

She was stunned at first, then, as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw, her eyes lit up brilliantly.

Lu Yingman scrambled over and grabbed Qi Yin's boots.

"Yin Yin, Yin Yin, it's Mom! Save me, save Mom!"

She cried out, her voice raspy from not having drunk water for some time.

Afterward, Lu Yingman treated Qi Yin as her backer and turned to point at the Fat Pig Man.

"They... they are forcing me to my death. Take me with you, please, take me with you."

Lu Yingman held on tightly. She knew very well that if she followed the Fat Pig Man and his group, she wouldn't get any food and would die sooner or later.

But Qi Yin looked very clean. Perhaps she had latched onto some rich person; wouldn't it be easy for her to provide a meal?

Qi Yin's body stiffened, and her brows furrowed instantly.

She tried hard to pull her leg back, but Lu Yingman held on tightly.

"Let go!"

Her voice was as cold as the surrounding air, without a ripple of emotion.

However, Lu Yingman completely ignored her warning; she acted like a madwoman and pulled even tighter.

"No! Your father and brother are both dead. You are my daughter, so you should take care of me. You cannot just stand by and watch me die!"

Lu Yingman raised her head; there was no request in her eyes, more like a command.

"I know you are living well. You must have a safe place to take refuge. Take me with you!"

Even now, facing so many people of unknown origin, she was still considering only herself first.

Qi Yin's face turned completely cold. She exerted force with her foot and pulled her leg free from Lu Yingman's grasp.

She even gave Lu Yingman a little push, sending her back to the feet of the Fat Pig Man.

She brushed off her boots, as if Lu Yingman were some filthy thing.

The Fat Pig Man raised his foot, stepped on Lu Yingman, and slapped her.

"You stinking woman, I've been providing you with food and drink, and now you've learned to bite the hand that feeds you?"

Lu Yingman was terrified of him. She couldn't escape, so she could only cower while clutching her head.

The Fat Pig Man and his subordinate exchanged a glance. When they looked at Qi Yin again, their faces wore expressions of greed and scrutiny.

This young girl looked like she had come to the hospital alone, which would make it much easier for them to take action.

He took a step forward, grinned, and revealed a set of disgusting, foul-smelling yellow teeth.

He pointed at Lu Yingman on the ground: "This lady is your mother? Little girl, you're doing pretty well for yourself, aren't you? Coming to the hospital alone in this freezing weather—you've certainly got guts."

Qi Yin ignored him and turned to leave.

Lu Yingman jumped out to court death again.

"She is my daughter! I know her name, it's Qi Yin. The clothes she's wearing look so nice; she definitely doesn't have to worry about food and drink. Catch her, or she won't help me!"

This shout once again stirred up the greed of the survivors present.

The Fat Pig Man's eyes lit up instantly, and he gave a greasy smile.

"Did you hear that? Little girl, your mother has spoken. I've been supporting your mother for so many days—if there's no credit, there's at least some hard work."

Immediately after, he threatened her by holding the iron rod in his hand horizontally in front of Qi Yin's eyes.

"Obediently take us to where you live. In the future, if there's a bite for me, Brother Zhu, there will naturally be a share for you. Otherwise..."

He shook the iron rod in his hand again, "Don't blame me, Brother Zhu, for not knowing how to cherish the fairer sex."

The Xiao Liu whose leg was rotting—whom he had mentioned earlier—was lying on the ground, but he rubbed his hands together. Suddenly, with a "poof" sound, a small, flickering flame sprouted from his palm out of thin air.

This Xiao Liu was not as arrogant: "Big Brother, don't waste so much breath. My leg can't hold out much longer; let's finish this quickly."

Qi Yin was amused; this was the first Ability User she had encountered outside of her own people.

This tiny, flimsy flame—let alone comparing it to Xiao Sinian, even Lu Yanxiu was miles better than this person.

No, no, no, how could she compare herself to such a lower standard?

There was absolutely no comparison at all, okay?

However, having to deal with it herself was such a hassle.

Lu Yingman really knew how to cause trouble for her.

Seeing her standing still, the Fat Pig Man thought she was scared.

The cold wind blew through the dilapidated hall, whipping up ice shards from the ground and stinging people's faces.

Finish it quickly? Qi Yin slowly exhaled a puff of hot air.

That was exactly what she wanted!

Lifting her hand gently, Qi Yin extended her index finger. The snowflakes drifting in from outside the window seemed to have found their way home, all surging toward her delicate fingertip.

In just one second, three Ice Cones formed from accumulated snowflakes emitted a faint blue light in her hand.

The Fat Pig Man and Xiao Liu exchanged a glance; the shock in their eyes was self-evident.

"You, you are also an Ability User?"

And she could use local materials; they had never seen that before!

Qi Yin gently shook the Ice Cones, looking at the Fat Pig Man and that fire-type Ability User.

"Want to finish it quickly? Out of kindness, I'll help you!"

With a wave of her hand, the three Ice Cones, as if equipped with target tracking, shot rapidly toward the Fat Pig Man's eyes and the fire-type Ability User's good leg.

"Ah!" "Ah!" "Ah!"

Three sharp screams erupted.

The Fat Pig Man, who had dared to threaten Qi Yin just a moment ago, clutched one of his eyes. Bright red blood flowed from between his fingers, looking particularly glaring in this icy, snowy world.

As for the fire-type Ability User Xiao Liu, thinking that fire should be able to counter ice, he struggled to use his Supernatural Ability to stop it.

But he didn't expect that before the Ice Cones even got close, his flame was extinguished.

He could only watch helplessly as the Ice Cones mercilessly pierced into his only good leg.

Now, both legs were ruined!

And this third scream came from Lu Yingman, who was slumped on the ground.

She clutched her arm, her face full of disbelief.

Qi Yin actually had a Supernatural Ability—she was her mother, and this unfilial daughter had ruined her left arm!

"You... unfilial daughter..." Lu Yingman did not forget to accuse her.

Qi Yin shook her index finger from side to side, looking completely disapproving.

"No, no, no, Ms. Lu. The moment you and the father and son of the Qi Family schemed to take the shares Grandma left for me, you ceased to be my mother."

The old Qi Yin died a long time ago.

"You... how do you know?"
