Become a Knight Across the World

Chapter 132 Entering X City

If that whip had actually landed on Lin Yue, she definitely wouldn't have been able to keep up the act. Just then, the eldest woman among them suddenly stepped behind Lin Yue and took the full force of the lash.

Although the woman was a little older, she was only in her early twenties when she let out a painful groan.

"Keep moving forward, they won't go easy on you just because you're a girl," the woman whispered. The man holding the whip was furious, his already bloodshot eyes now wide open, as if spitting fire.

Judging from his ferocious and distorted face, he had almost reached his limit of patience with Lin Yue's slow movements, and the anger in his heart was burning fiercely.

"What are you dawdling for! Come with me now!" the man roared furiously.

The woman's eyes were filled with tears, but she knew now was not the time to resist.

"Thank you, how are you?" Lin Yue asked with concern. The whip didn't cause any reaction when it hit Lin Yue, but it would hurt a lot when it hit an ordinary person.

"I'm fine, little sister, let's go quickly." The woman gritted her teeth and continued walking forward. Lin Yue secretly channeled a wisp of true energy into her body, relieving the pain in her back. At the same time, a tiny wisp of true energy secretly entered the body of the man who had hit her.

Just one day later, this guy will inexplicably die of heart failure!

At the city gate, the drug lord's army was watching the group of young, beautiful girls with ill intent.

Their lustful and greedy gazes roamed freely over the girls' delicate bodies, like hungry wolves eyeing delicious lambs.

Just then, a burly man with a fierce face, who looked like an officer, stepped forward and blocked the girls' way.

The man had a lewd smile on his face, his eyes narrowed as he sized up the girls. He slowly said, "Halt! We strongly suspect that you are carrying weapons that could threaten our safety! So..."

He paused deliberately, then licked his thick lips lightly with his tongue before continuing, "We need to give each of you a thorough full-body checkup!"

Before he could finish speaking, this shameless fellow unhesitatingly stretched out his two dirty, smelly hands and reached straight for the woman standing at the front of the line.

Just as that evil claw was about to touch the woman, a fair-skinned man suddenly appeared from some corner.

"Your Majesty, the King of Lust!" The man who was about to commit an indecent act froze instantly upon seeing the pretty boy, as if he had been frozen in place. He withdrew his hand and quickly stood up straight, his posture as perfect as could be, looking every bit like a lackey.

"These are all top-quality items, meant for us leaders to play with. Do you still want to act recklessly like before?" The King of Lust smiled, but that smile revealed a chilling coldness.

"No... I wouldn't dare, Your Majesty! I'll never dare again!" The man was so frightened that his face turned ashen, large beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, and he began to stammer.

"Hmph, I knew you wouldn't have the guts! This time, I'll let it slide. No need to check their identities, just let them all pass!" The lecherous king waved his hand and led his group of subordinates and the girls through the city gate in a grand manner.

Upon entering the city, the scene before her was like a heavy hammer blow to Lin Yuexin, who was following behind. She was speechless with astonishment. Compared to the magnificent and imposing buildings at the city gate, the buildings inside the city were worlds apart!

The houses lining the street were dilapidated, standing there precariously like elderly people on their last legs, as if they might collapse at any moment. The walls were covered with mottled cracks, resembling hideous ghost faces; the roof tiles were also missing, and in some places, weeds had even grown, swaying in the wind, adding to the desolate atmosphere of this already bleak scene.

Looking at the people walking on the road, most of them wore clothes that were riddled with holes, patched one after another, layer upon layer, almost completely covering the original fabric. The clothes were so tattered that they were unrecognizable, and the colors had faded to the point of being indistinguishable, as if their owners had worn them for many years but were unwilling to replace them.

The faces of these people were even more shocking. They were all pale as paper, devoid of any color, their eyes empty and lifeless, like two long-dried-up wells that could no longer ripple. Their faces wore a blank, indifferent expression, as if they had completely despaired of life and lost all enthusiasm and hope.

The entire area was permeated with a thick, suffocating aura of decay and decay, like a heavy gloom hanging over the sky. As Lin Yue and her group slowly walked past them, the people merely glanced at them indifferently before lowering their heads again.

Only a very few people showed a hint of pity when they saw the group of girls, but that expression quickly disappeared.

In their eyes, these girls were nothing more than lambs to the slaughter, destined to become playthings for drug lords. They were accustomed to such scenes; the initial pity and sympathy they felt had long since been worn away by time, replaced by a cold-blooded indifference.

Among the group, several girls could no longer suppress the overwhelming fear and sorrow within them and began to sob softly. Their low sobs were like shivering leaves in the cold wind, helpless and desolate. The oppressive, suffocating atmosphere felt like a heavy mountain pressing down on them, making it almost impossible to breathe; every breath was filled with a deep fear of their unknown fate.

Just as the woman was about to offer some comfort, a voice rang out first: "Don't cry, we still have hope." It was Lin Yue who spoke, and the woman looked at her with some surprise.

A glint of unyielding light flickered in those beautiful eyes, like a lonely but brilliant star in the dark night sky.

Just as everyone was enjoying this brief moment of comfort, suddenly, a commotion arose from the previously silent road ahead. Everyone looked up and saw several jeeps parked steadily in front of them.

...

Cao Yu hid in a dilapidated wooden hut. He looked at the girls in the distance. Although he couldn't see their faces clearly, a look of pity and reluctance flashed in his eyes.

Was his girlfriend also treated like a commodity when she entered X city back then?

“Oz, I want to save them!” Cao Yu said.

"You don't have much time left, and you still want to waste it on this? Last time we almost caught up with your enemy, but I don't know where that Kabuto came from, and he wiped out all my pets!"

"And Cao Yu, let me tell you! My time is limited. Do you still think you're a policeman? If you don't take your revenge and instead waste your time saving unimportant people, I'll personally control your body to kill your enemy for you!"
