When The Empress Counterattacks

The four men who are laughing and jeering the most l.u.s.tful man among them stopped at their actions as they felt a heavy and thick killing intent covering the area.

'Strange. How many people this individual killed to have this level of killing intent?'

The leader thought to himself.

His expression changed in an instant as he noticed something, a small shadow.

"Car---!"

He didn't manage to finish his words as the most lecherous among them stumbled and then fall completely.

He focus the small flashlight in his hands...

What he saw terrified him greatly. A scream almost escape his mouth but he manage to forcefully prevent it.

But the two seeing their teammate in a pool of blood, eyes and mouth open with a hole in his left c.h.e.s.t cannot resist the feeling of horror.

The two want to scream but didn't manage to as a small and delicate yet the force it contained is very powerful hand plunged into the left side of their c.h.e.s.t, ending their poor little life.

The leader was scared silly by the things he saw that his tall and muscular body tremble like a lost and abandoned dog in the street.

The ruthless small figure looks to be in crazed.

Her once lovable and exquisitely beautiful face was now distorted into a pure bliss expression with some droplets of bloods staining her flawlessly white and slightly chubby cheeks.

Her lips is curled into a devilishly bewitching smile but the feeling it gives if people see it will be a pure terror. That pair of ink black eyes held nothing but pure killing emotion as she lunched into the last man who is now planning to run in the of the stairs leading into the second floor.

"Lan'er?!"

A worried voice sounded as a very beautiful woman in black nightgown opened the door.

Just a simple word yet the girl who was like a killing machine earlier, chasing the man stopped in her pursuit and stood there in daze.

Like a lost child in the vast wilderness.

However the man take this a chance to save his life from the death door.

He knows that this oncoming woman is this devil child's mother as he grab any opportunity he can hold unto, where he is best at.

How could he survive into the underworld as an important figure in a pretty huge gang without a bit of ability?

Of course he have his own merits as an elite member of a gang aside from his raw strength.

That is, he knows when to go forward and when to retreat.

Like a snake. Slithery and hard to catch.

These are the people who government want to catch the most.

Those who know how to bid their time.

Patient criminals.

Opportunists.

He grabbed the descending woman and point a gun at her head.

Now that he has a hostage.

His backbone seemed to come back.

"Approach. Or she die!!

Stay put!!"

Threatened him.

He may be look brave in the outside but his heart want to jump out from his c.h.e.s.t right now.

This little girl is simply monstrous.

Still a child yet the strength is formidable.

Is she one of the children who was trained by some organizations or by the government?

Because when there was a very important Team Meeting last month.

It was a kind of meeting where all of the team of Skull Gang will gather.

As of right now there are fifty team of Skull Gang. And I belong into the 'Twenty Fifth Team', a team that was not the most formidable but still belong into the middle of the ranking.

The 'First Team' is the strongest and the 'Fiftieth Team' is the weakest in term of skills.

In our team I am the right hand man of the leader of the 'Twenty Fifth Team' that's why he brings me in the meeting.

One of the topic of the meeting was about an information that was leaked saying the Government and other influencial and powerful Organizations allied with the government or the underworld forces are adopting those homeless and orphan child and other talented children so that they can train them early to gain their loyalty and strengthen their forces even more.

This Project started fifteen years ago yet the smaller forces in underworld just knew it just this week.

1- 5 years old is the main target.

The 'First Team' suggested that we could also do the same.

That the other teams agreed.

So it is possible that this she-devil is one of them.

'I don't care about it now! All I have to think is how to leave here in complete piece!'

He saw a ray of hope as the little girl calm down and just stood there facing him.

He dragged Bai Lixue in the direction of the door.

After fifteen minutes of dragging the little girl's mother, he finally reached the door.

An idea flashed in his mind as he finally saw the door. He can finally leave this hell of a place.

'Humph! You scared me earlier so as a little revenge...

You may be fast but are you faster than my bullet?'

He planned to press the trigger of the gun when a heavy force stuck his wrist, breaking the bones in his hand downward, that lead to the trigger successfully cl.i.c.k.i.n.g.

The bullet hit Bai Lixue's stomach.

"MAMA!!"

A heart wrenching shout rang in the middle of the night.

The man then found himself getting hit directly by a mighty force.

He was thrown out and then die after due to his internal organs smashed into pieces as it was the target of the unknown and invisible force.

***

I watched as my Mama was dragged forcefully but I must not move as I know I can't handle to save her if that man pulled that damn trigger.

Then I can't save my Mama as my body cannot handle using that much spiritual force.

My body might be severely injured if that happened.

I will gladly accept the injury if I can really save her but if not?

I would not take a risk.

I  was really furious when I saw that sneer on his mouth.

'He's planning something!!'

My gaze never leave that finger in the gun's trigger that's why I directed a layer of spiritual force that I can use and targeted his hand.

The force broke every bones in his hand but that lead to something I didn't expect.

'The trigger was pulled!!'

"MAMA!!"

My body unconsciously released a thick and huge amount of inner force directed to his internal organs, damaging my body greatly

However, I did not regret using it.

The time seemed to stop turning as I saw my loving mother's pained expression as she touch her bleeding stomach.

Blood continuously gushes in her abdomen, a symbol that tells me I didn't manage to save and protect her as I promised.

Her body fall into the cold floor like a damaged and broken doll.

'No...

No...

NNOOO!!'

I... I hate myself!

For being too weak.

I found myself falling into the embrace of darkness.

'I am still too weak!!'

***

Outside the restaurant.

Several men saw all of the things that happened.

They didn't do anything as the little girl clearly is in berserk mode.

And they are too engrossed in her fighting capability that they didn't manage to wake up in their fantasy.

They just managed escaped when the sound of the gun rang loudly.

The leader of the team look at his subordinates.

Then more men move from the darkness and one by one, in a disciplined manner stop the neighbors,who was also disturbed by the gunshot from going out in their house.

The neighborhood has only forty or more houses so the men he brought was enough.

The forces of government are respected so the people listened to them and no one even question it even if they are really curious.

The leader then called his superior as this case cannot be handled by his rank.

'What a terrifying child!'

He thought before entering the building.
