Chapter 1317: Chapter 1316: They Picked the Wrong Person

Gu Tong clutched her chest, looking frightened, her mouth slightly pouting, seeming a bit aggrieved.

However, this simple remark almost made the others cough up blood.

They couldn’t see any fear in this woman; she had frightened them earlier, and now her change of expression was faster than flipping a switch.

Li Yan looked at the young lady and couldn’t help but laugh, saying: "Stop it." His tone was full of indulgence, considering Gu Tong’s behavior nothing wrong, treating it as the young woman’s playful act.

Gu Tong pouted, saying: "I’m not messing around, obviously it’s them bullying the young girl, a group of people bullying one person, isn’t that shameful."

Her words were sharp, not only veiled insults but direct attacks, indicating she wasn’t afraid of their enraged retaliation, showing great confidence.

Sister Meixin was somewhat annoyed, her chubby face trembling incessantly, eyes widened, saying: "Stop causing trouble! We’re dealing with private matters, what’s it to you? What gives you the right to interfere?"

She was eager to take away Xiaoyu immediately to avoid unnecessary trouble, which would lead to further complications.

Thinking of this, she quickly signaled to her subordinates.

The young punks, receiving her signal, stepped forward without hesitation and started dragging Xiaoyu, saying: "Damn, little troublemaker, you’re a jinx, let’s see how we deal with you when we get back!"

Xiaoyu was like a startled bird; as soon as they touched her, she sprang up, lunging forward and hugging Gu Tong’s leg, saying: "Sister, save me, help!"

She was too aware of the consequences of being taken by them, thus struggling desperately, fearing being dragged away by this group of youngsters. She clung to Gu Tong, refusing to let go, treating her like her last straw of hope.

Gu Tong glanced at Xiaoyu; she couldn’t help but feel sympathetic, determined to rescue Xiaoyu this time.

Longxing Country is a place with a well-established legal system; there should be no occurrence of private punishment or disregard for laws.

No matter what mistakes this young girl had made, she shouldn’t suffer this sort of abuse.

Thinking of this, Gu Tong’s tone turned harsh, saying: "Let her go!"

Her voice was slightly deep, containing a hint of danger.

The group of punks did not understand the hidden meaning in her tone, immediately feeling the woman was ignorant, meddling without reason.

"You young lass! Don’t meddle, offending the wrong people will leave you regretting!"

One of the young punks, slightly intimidating, was openly and covertly threatening Gu Tong to back off, lest she finds herself in trouble.

The young punk finished with Gu Tong, still feeling displeased, pointing at Li Yan, sneering harshly: "Watch your woman! We don’t hit women, but we won’t spare men!"

After all, these are punks; the first thing they think of is solving problems through violence, considering it the most convenient method.

Of course.

If it were someone afraid of trouble, facing such punks, there would surely be a fear inside, eager to avoid them.

However, unexpectedly.

They chose the wrong people!

The renowned Devil King, fearing threats, would be the biggest joke.

Li Yan’s face remained calm, with a touch of disdain at the corner of his lips. He moved his steps, standing by Gu Tong’s side within a few steps, showing no intent of taking her away, instead adopting a stance of backing her up.
