The young man whose head had been smashed by the bottle for the second time did not even understand what had happened.
His eyes rolled back, and his body went limp on the spot.
Then he fainted.
Blood began pouring from his head, flowing down his face and splashing everywhere. Some of it shot toward Shen Yueran's face.
The moment the warm blood splashed onto her, something in her seemed to snap.
Her expression changed completely.
The lazy amusement and drunken laughter vanished in an instant, replaced by a wild, terrifying fury.
She slowly lifted her head, blood staining her face, and roared across the entire area,
"Mingxiao, kill everyone and leave no one!"
Her voice exploded like thunder.
The moment they heard her command, the men who had already been fighting moved at once. At the same time, dozens more people in black uniforms appeared around the area, surrounding everyone present with frightening speed and discipline.
The instant the order to kill was heard, the atmosphere froze.
The bodyguards around the bleeding young master were shocked.
The two bodyguards protecting the frail youth were shocked.
Even the frail youth himself was stunned.
All of them stared at the scene in disbelief.
They had been surrounded by a well-trained force.
The pressure instantly became intense.
"What the hell is this place—?"
Before the men could truly act, Liang Zhen's voice suddenly rang out sharply.
"Stop! Don't kill anyone! Stand down now!"
His expression was already ugly, but his voice remained steady and forceful.
"Old Master's orders! Anyone who disobeys will be severely punished! Stand down!"
While shouting, Liang Zhen immediately took out the old command token and raised it high.
The Mingxiao men who had already begun moving stopped at once when they saw it.
The atmosphere remained tense, but the order had changed.
No one dared ignore the old master's authority.
Everything halted.
Everything—
except one person.
Shen Yueran did not stop.
Without warning, she raised her leg and kicked toward the knee of the bodyguard who had been protecting the bleeding young master.
The kick landed with terrifying force.
A sickening crack sounded.
The man's knee bent in a completely unnatural direction and dislocated on the spot.
His face twisted, and he was just about to scream in pain when Shen Yueran's fist smashed into his throat.
The sound of impact was sharp.
The bodyguard instantly clutched his neck and rolled away, gagging violently, unable even to scream properly.
Everything happened in less than a breath.
Everyone around could only stare.
The huge-bodied bodyguard who had looked so imposing just moments ago was now lying on the ground like a slaughtered pig.
Liang Zhen saw this scene and felt his scalp go numb.
He did not dare get close to Shen Yueran at all.
Instead, he immediately took out his phone and started calling Old Master Shen's number.
At the same time, he shouted toward everyone around them,
"Don't stand in front of her! Don't resist! Everyone lie down!"
His voice was hoarse with urgency.
The people around were stunned.
After hearing this, the frail young man was the first to react. He immediately lay down and even ordered the two bodyguards protecting him to lie down as well.
Only after dropping low did he slowly raise his head to look ahead.
What he saw was a bloodied figure moving through the area like a monster.
Shen Yueran's face was stained with blood. Her eyes were frighteningly bright, and her movements carried a kind of terrifying wildness that made people's hearts tremble.
On the other side, Liang Zhen kept staring at his phone, trying to get through to Old Master Shen.
He did not dare look away for too long.
But even without looking, he could hear it.
Whooshing sounds.
Gagging sounds.
Heavy impacts.
Different cries of pain rising one after another.
Meanwhile, the team leader of the bleeding young master's bodyguards watched all this and snorted coldly.
He still had not fully understood the situation.
"Protect the young master!" he shouted.
Then he glared at the people around him and barked even louder, "Kill anyone who dares to come close!"
His voice was full of anger and authority.
"Do you know who we are? Do you have the guts to offend the Huo Family?!"
At the same time, he was already quickly reporting the situation and calling for reinforcements from the Huo Family.
His voice became more and more forceful as he shouted at the people surrounding them and at Shen Yueran.
But what he did not know was one very simple thing.
A threat like that only worked when the person hearing it was sane.
It did not work on a drunken insane maniac.
The moment he gave the order, the people around him moved.
But almost immediately, it became clear how hopeless the situation was.
In the end, only he remained by the side of the unconscious, bleeding young master.
The rest had already started fighting for their lives against one person
To outsiders, the scene looked like a completely one-sided thrashing.
There was no balance.
There was no real back-and-forth.
It was simply destruction.
Screams rang out again and again.
Every person who tried to resist ended up with broken arms or broken legs.
Some were sent flying.
Some collapsed clutching shattered joints.
Some could not even get up after one strike.
The blood on her face made her seem even more frightening.
The team leader of the bodyguards looked at the scene before him and completely froze.
His body had gone stiff.
He stood there stiff as a post, his face turning beet red in fear.
Then he saw her.
The bloodied black figure turned her head slightly and smiled at him.
Her entire face was stained with blood, yet that smile was terrifyingly bright.
The moment their eyes met, a chill ran straight down his spine.
It was the kind of cold that came from the deepest part of fear.
His breathing became heavier,His fingers tightened but he could not move.
He could only watch as the black figure slowly began walking toward him.
Step by step.
Slowly.
Unhurriedly.
The closer she came, the more horrifying she looked.
The blood on her face had not dried yet.
The silver word MINGXIAO on her gloves flashed under the club lights.
Her black clothes, her black gloves, the silver accessories on her body, and the blood on her face all mixed into a picture so shocking that it burned itself into the eyes of everyone who saw it.
The team leader wanted to speak.
He wanted to shout.
He wanted to order the people around him to move.
But when he opened his mouth, no sound came out.
His throat felt dry.
His legs felt weak.
The only thing left in his mind was one clear thought—
This woman was not human.
She was a monster.
Around them, the screams still continued now and then.
The people who had tried to fight back were all down. The people who had thought they could resist had all been crushed.
And through all of it, Shen Yueran kept walking toward him with that blood-smeared smile still on her face.
A cold sweat slid down his back.
As he watched the figure slowly approach him, all the arrogance he had shown just moments ago had already vanished completely.
