High-level martial arts: Invincibility starts with basic archery.

Not long after, a dozen or so women were brought over.

Seemingly having heard their companions' explanations along the way, they no longer showed the same fear as the others, and their eyes even held a hint of anticipation.

"Awakened One, we have brought all the people."

Scarface smiled obsequiously.

"Is there anything else we need to do? If so, please let us know."

"Yes, yes, Awakened One, we wouldn't even flinch if it meant going through fire and water."

"That's right, that's right."

A group of people chimed in.

In their minds, Chen Fan was not a menace at all, but a powerful ally.

As long as we can hold on tight, we won't need to suffer here in the future.

Chen Fan saw through their thoughts and said calmly, "I do have some, but I'm afraid you can't do it."

The leaders exchanged bewildered glances, then asked:

"Awakened One, what is it? What if we can help?"

Clearly, none of them were willing to give up.

Chen Fan didn't bother to say anything more and turned to walk away.

"?"

Watching Chen Fan's figure disappear from sight.

Everyone present was stunned.

The thugs, now under control, all looked toward their leader.

They're gone already? Their inner energy hasn't been released yet?

The women turned deathly pale.

Didn't they promise to take them with them when they left?

Why did you leave alone?

So, won't they just have to go back to living the same life as before?

Just then, a series of footsteps sounded.

Everyone looked up and was immediately delighted, but the next moment, they were all so shocked that their mouths gaped open and they couldn't utter a sound.

The person who came was none other than Chen Fan, who had returned after leaving.

However, at this moment, he slowly walked over, carrying several subway cars with two arms formed from his true energy.

This is what he found in the underground passage.

Although it has been abandoned for many years, the seat railings inside the car have long been completely removed, and the exterior has suffered varying degrees of damage.

He specifically selected a few carriages that were still relatively well-preserved, enough to hold a few hundred people.

"boom!"

The subway car crashed to the ground with a loud bang.

Chen Fan looked at the group of women, pointed to the two rows of carriages, and said, "Go in, and hold on tight once you're in. It might be bumpy later, and you could get thrown out. That's no joke."

Imagine what would happen if you jumped off a speeding train.

What if we replaced the speeding train with a high-speed train traveling at 300 to 400 kilometers per hour?

His speed is even faster than that of a high-speed train.

If someone were thrown out, they would surely be smashed to pieces and die a horrible death.

The women looked at each other for a moment, and finally one of them mustered up the courage to go in.

For most of them, this may be the only chance to change their fate; if they miss it, they may never have another one.

Moreover, this person in front of them is from the Awakened Ones Association, so there's no reason for him to harm them.

The thugs standing nearby looked at each other, their hearts pounding with anxiety.

Anyone with eyes could see that this Awakened One was going to lift the carriage with both hands, just like before, and take these people away from here.

But what if the other party leaves? What will happen to the true energy within their bodies?

Will this person untie him?

About ten minutes later, all the women present entered the carriage and clung tightly to each other.

Chen Fan nodded slightly.

Just then, Scarface cautiously spoke up, "Awakened One, could you... could you take us with you and leave?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the room fell silent.

The women in the carriage all looked terrified.

Some of them were captured by this person and endured a period of unbearable suffering.

If it weren't for the arrival of this Awakened One today, their miserable lives would have continued until they died.

Chen Fan looked at him with some surprise.

"What did you just say? Say it again so I can hear it."

Scarface immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

He knew that making this request was a bit excessive.

But as the saying goes, fortune favors the bold.

Admittedly, meeting Chen Fan today is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the women imprisoned here, but isn't it the same for him?

The people sent by the Awakeners Association in the past were all repelled by the Rat King and his men.

But this time, the Awakeners Association was serious and sent real powerhouses who directly killed the Rat King, Elder Jin, and hundreds of other experts.

If he could follow this person, the achievements he would attain in the future would be many times better than merely surviving in Rat City, living day by day.

"Awakened One!"

Thinking of this, Scarface hardened his heart, knelt down with a thud, and kowtowed, saying, "Before, I was muddle-headed and did many wrong things, and hurt many people. But today, after seeing your actions, I have come to my senses and am willing to turn over a new leaf and start anew."

"My lord, please give me a chance. I am willing to serve you faithfully, even at the cost of my life!"

The shorter man behind him stared wide-eyed at the sight.

What is perspective?

That's what you call vision!

While they were all worried that this awakened one might remove the true energy from their bodies, Scarface was already thinking about how to follow him and achieve a brighter future.

"Damn, this guy's got some brains. How come I never noticed before?"

The next second, he knelt down on the ground with a thud, tears streaming down his face, and said, "Awakener, Scarface is right. After seeing what you have done, I realize that I have done a lot of heinous things in the past. I am willing to turn over a new leaf and start anew. I hope you can give me a chance."

Seeing this, the others followed suit and knelt down.

Instantly, cries of pleas filled the air.

The women inside the carriage were trembling like leaves.

They thought that from now on they could get rid of these villains and start a new life, but who knew that these people would follow them!

What about after that?

They dared not think any further.

"Turn over a new leaf and start anew?"

Chen Fan muttered to himself.

The pleading crowd fell silent, nodding their heads like chickens pecking at rice.

"These eight words are easy to say, but difficult to do," Chen Fan sighed softly.

"grown ups."

The scarred man shouted, "Please give me a chance! I will prove with my actions that I keep my word!"

"My lord, please give me a chance?"

"Awakened One, we will definitely keep our word."

Others chimed in.

They felt they had seen a glimmer of hope.

With just a little more effort, a bright future awaits them.

"Actually, you shouldn't have asked me for this opportunity."

Chen Fan shook his head.

"?"

Scarface and the others were stunned when they heard this.

He looked around.

It seems there aren't any other Awakened Ones present?

If they don't ask Chen Fan for this opportunity, who else can they ask?

"You should talk to them."

Chen Fan reached out and pointed to the women in the carriage.

"Go talk to them and see if they are willing to give you a chance to turn over a new leaf and start anew."

As soon as he finished speaking, both groups were stunned.

"She, they..."

A bad feeling rose in the hearts of Scarface and the others.

They knew perfectly well why these women were here.

Sure enough, a few seconds later, a voice filled with hatred rang out, "No! I will never give them that chance! They killed my husband, killed my son, and brought me here. I wish they were dead!"

"That's right, even as a ghost, I won't let them get away with it! They don't deserve to repent and start anew!"

"Awakened One, don't be fooled by them! They haven't come to their senses in time; they just want to leave!"

Like a stone thrown into a still pond, it stirred up a thousand waves. At first, there were only a few scattered sounds, but then hundreds of sounds piled up together, one wave higher than the next.

Tears streamed down the women's faces as they glared venomously at the scarred man and his group kneeling on the ground.

"you!"

Someone shouted angrily, their eyes flashing with murderous intent.

These wretched women, they were all fawning over them yesterday, and today they dare to ruin their plans!

Don't want to live anymore?

"Ugh."

Seeing this, Scarface sighed inwardly.

He knew that the matter was hopeless.

But if he had to do it all over again, he would still make the same choice.

The sound lasted for more than a minute before Chen Fan raised his hand, and the sound gradually subsided.

"You heard it too, they're unwilling to give you this opportunity, so naturally I can't be generous with other people's money."

"this……"

Some people were unwilling to give up and wanted to plead one more time.

Upon seeing Chen Fan's expressionless face, the words stuck in her throat.

Many people made no attempt to hide the murderous intent in their eyes, staring intently at the women in the carriage. If it weren't for Chen Fan, they would have rushed over and killed these women.

"Awakener, since that's the case, then we have nothing more to say. We only hope that you can release our true energy and spare our lives, considering that we helped you in a small way." This time, Scarface had learned his lesson.

Otherwise, he was really scared, so Chen Fan turned around and asked the group of women for their opinions.

If that's the case, do you think they'll get away with it?

Upon hearing this, the women all looked at Chen Fan.

They desperately wanted Chen Fan to take action and kill these villains, the more ruthless the better!

However, they also have self-awareness, knowing that it is already a great favor for the other party to be able to lead them out of this predicament, and that making any further demands would be greedy.

"I cannot agree to that."

Chen Fan shook his head.

"What?!"

Scarface and the others felt their hearts sink when they heard this.

Some people wanted to curse Chen Fan, but deep down they still held onto a sliver of hope that something might happen.

"Why, why?"

The scarred man was the first to ask, "Awakened One, we...we don't have any grudges between us, do we? Besides, we even did things for you before. We understand that you don't want to take us away, but why won't you let us go?"

"Good question."

Chen Fan nodded, looked at him and said, "Because from the very beginning, I never intended to let you go."

"!!!"

Upon hearing Chen Fan's words, the thugs present were stunned into silence.

In other words, their fate was sealed from the moment they were found.

But they still thought there was hope of survival, so they obediently did as the other party asked, and even developed some unrealistic fantasies.

The women in the carriage, however, were in tears.

They were too weak to kill their enemies with their own hands, but watching their enemies die in front of them was a very satisfying thing.

"If you have to blame someone, blame your bad luck."

Chen Fan sighed softly.

He sent people to rescue the imprisoned people, naturally going to places with large crowds.

This is why he chose Scarface and his gang.

As for what the other party said about working for him, it's simply because they are controlled by him.

Believe it or not, if he didn't use some underhanded methods, these people would never listen to him.

"Then, why before?"

Scarface, his eyes bloodshot, gritted his teeth and asked, "When I told you to take us with you, you even asked these women for their opinions? Was it just to humiliate us?!"

Upon hearing this, the others also had veins bulging on their foreheads, their anger reaching its peak.

Since they had already put their lives on the line, they were mentally prepared to die a violent death. They believed that a man could be killed but not humiliated!

"You could say that."

Chen Fan calmly said, "They've been imprisoned here by you, and the psychological pressure is too great. I want them to vent and live a good life."

"you!"

Scarface was furious.

"I don't want to be your tool!"

He roared and lunged at Chen Fanfei.

Since we know we can't escape death, we might as well risk our lives and fight for it; perhaps there's still a glimmer of hope!

"He does have some guts."

Chen Fan's lips curled slightly.

"Bang!"

The next second, Scarface exploded, leaving no trace of his body.

There were a few more people behind them who had just stood up and were about to rush forward when they saw this and froze, their legs trembling.

Many others continued to kneel and beg for mercy.

Chen Fan shook his head. The bodies of the dozens or even hundreds of people in front of him exploded at the same time, and the scene immediately fell silent.

He looked around and could sense that there were still quite a few traces of life remaining in the city.

"The beast tide is coming soon, and time is of the essence. We simply don't have the energy to spend on clearing out these people."

Chen Fan withdrew his gaze.

Moreover, whether a person is good or bad, there is no difference to the ferocious beast.

It's questionable whether even one-tenth of those who remain in Rat City will survive.

"Hurry up, we're about to leave."

Chen Fan looked at the women in the carriage, and after a moment, he lifted the carriage with both hands and sped off towards Anshan City.

The women in the carriage felt only the whistling wind in their ears, and the surrounding scenery turned into afterimages as it rushed backward.

"It's like taking the high-speed rail."

Someone said in a low voice.

"It seems faster than the high-speed rail, just like taking an airplane."

"My God? Who is he? How can he carry us and move so fast?"

"Are you stupid? He's an Awakened One!"

"I know he's an Awakened One, but not all Awakened Ones have this kind of strength, right? Just these few carriages alone weigh tens of tons, don't they?"

"Of course! I've heard that top-tier Awakened Ones can overturn rivers and seas and easily destroy a town. The one leading us out of here must be an Awakened One of that level, right?"

"I wonder where this sir is taking us? Is he taking us to where he is? But we might not even be able to get in, right?"

"Yes, let alone those cities, even larger villages aren't places you can just walk into."

"Wherever we go, it will definitely be better than where we were before."

"Yes, yes, as long as I can get out of that hellish place, even if I have to wander outside and get eaten by ferocious beasts, I'm willing."

These words touched a raw nerve with many people. At first, some people sobbed quietly, but soon most of them were crying, and eventually, everyone was wiping away their tears.

Hearing this commotion, Chen Fan sighed and continued heading towards Anshan City.

Carrying a heavy load, his true energy was depleted, making him completely different from when he came alone before.

Fortunately, the true energy within him was also far superior to that of ordinary True Essence Realm martial artists.

Two or three hours later, we finally arrived at Anshan City.

Chen Fan gently placed the two rows of carriages on the ground and said, "We're here. Get out now."

The people inside the car immediately realized what was happening and looked out the windows.

They were surrounded by rows of houses, quite large in scale, which seemed to be a large village. They immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

However, when they stepped out of the carriage and saw the towering city wall ahead, they all held their breath.

City?

This is actually a city!

Chen Fan took out his phone and dialed Hua Jun's number.

After giving a brief explanation, he hung up the phone, looked at the somewhat frightened crowd, and said, "Wait here for a moment, and someone will come to pick you up soon."

"Yes, thank you, Awakened One."

The women quickly thanked them.

Just then, Hua Jun arrived with two or three people.

"President!"

He first came up, greeted them, and then looked at the hundreds of disheveled women in front of him.

He thought to himself, "The president is still as kind-hearted as ever."

Even when hunting ferocious beasts, they never forget to rescue ordinary people.

"You can make the arrangements."

Chen Fan said.

"Yes, Chairman."

Hua Jun then looked at these people and said, "You, all of you, come with me."

All the women looked at Chen Fan.

I'm a little scared.

"Go with him."

Chen Fan comforted them, saying, "From now on, you are people of Anshan City. Don't worry about being kidnapped again. Just live well."

After saying that, he vanished from everyone's sight in a flash.

"Anshan City? This is Anshan City?"

"From now on, we're citizens of Anshan City? Does that mean we can enter the city?"

"sure."

Hua Jun smiled slightly, "After you register, you can move into Anshan City, and everyone will have their own house."

"!!!"

Upon hearing this, the women were stunned, as if struck by lightning.

Is there really such a good thing in the world?

Just like I said in the train carriage when I arrived.

Let alone cities, even some densely populated villages are difficult for ordinary people to enter, and even if they could, it would be difficult to afford a house inside.

But what did this person just say?

As long as they register, they can be allocated a house and live in the city from now on.

Could it be that they suffered too much before, and God couldn't bear to see it, so He rewarded them?

"Hehe, it seems you don't talk about the people around here." Behind Hua Jun, an Awakened One said with a smile, "Everyone around here knows that if you want to live in our Anshan City, you don't need to pay anything. You can just come and get in. Of course, since you're here, you have to abide by our rules and not cause trouble."

"That's right. If you cause trouble, you'll be kicked out by our guild leader, the one who brought you here just now," another Awakened One said with a smile.

"So, he's the president of the Awakened Ones Association."

The women suddenly realized what was going on.

No wonder he's so amazing.

"Alright, come with me. You'll find out soon enough whether you can stay in the city for free."

Hua Jun didn't continue explaining, after all, seeing is believing.

The arrival of so many women immediately caused a sensation.

Many people forgot what they were doing and stared without moving.

Although these women were all disheveled, quite a few of them were actually quite good-looking, and if they dressed up carefully, they would be quite beautiful.

"Strange, why are there so many women here all of a sudden?"

Two middle-aged men passed by outside the city, and the one on the left muttered to himself.

"Who cares?"

A middle-aged man nearby glanced at it and then looked away.

His Qin family is full of beauties, and he's afraid that even a second glance at these women would offend his eyes.

Then, he looked down at the piece of jade in his hand, a look of disappointment on his face.

"Still no reaction. Sigh, so much time has passed since we came all this way, and the jade still hasn't reacted at all. Could it be that we've come to the wrong place? But the direction Uncle Wu pointed out is this area."

His brows were furrowed.

Last night, my fifth uncle said that this place is about 500 li to the north.

Early in the morning, Uncle San instructed them to split into several groups and head in different directions to conduct a thorough search. Once they made a discovery, they were to inform the others and not to act alone, just in case.

But after so much time, they still haven't noticed anything.

The situation is probably the same for everyone else, since Uncle San's words are clear, and even Qin Jiming and his son wouldn't dare to disobey them.

"Impossible, right?"

The middle-aged man next to him frowned and said, "This is what Fifth Uncle said. How could his prediction be wrong? Be patient, we'll see."

"That's right. Since Fifth Uncle said we can find that bitch here today, we definitely can. There are still two or three hours until dark. If nothing unexpected happens, we'll find her soon."

"Okay, let's go."

The two continued forward. (End of Chapter)
