Chapter 650: Despicable

Her combat skills were barely average, and it was the results from the special training from before. Rather, she had only relied on brute force and her determination to bring everyone out.
She did not know where she got the strength from, but she rammed her bent body straight at the stomach of the person in front of her with all of her strength.
The punches on her back kept coming, but she continued to push against the man’s stomach until he slammed against the wall. She did not even look at him as she propped herself up and turned to run.
After going down the stairs, she did not care about anything else and rushed forward to find the exit.
There were screams coming from all around. Most of the girls had been caught; there were too many guards.
Lu Ning did not expect there to be so many guards.
What was even more unexpected was that there were even people standing guard outside secretly.
Lin Ci had successfully rushed out of the chaos. In her panic, she found a side door and rushed out onto the lawn of the house, though there was no gra.s.s on the lawn. She did not have time to care about this; after yelling behind her, she kept her head down and rushed forward.
She knew that as long as one of them escaped, they would be saved!
She rushed out, thinking that she had escaped, but before she could be relieved, a few people suddenly appeared in front of her, grabbed her arm, and pushed her back. In the face of absolute power, she could not even struggle.
Lin Ci tried her best to calm herself down. She immediately looked around, trying to find some signs that could identify the place.
But soon, she was brought back to the house.
The boys who ran out one after another were also brought back.
Lu Ning was caught in front of the exit. She could not break free at all due to several people restraining her.
She turned to look at everyone who had been captured and her eyes instantly turned red.
Her heart trembled.
“Sir, we’ve caught them all.”
Lu Ning looked over and saw a man standing on the steps, looking down at them.
He gently raised his hand, and the people behind him immediately took out something and covered their mouths. They blacked out one after another.
When Lu Ning fell to the ground, she still had a trace of rationality. She looked at the man and gritted her teeth as she cursed, “Despicable!”
Then, she fell into a long period of darkness.
The people outside did not stop searching.
Their search continued northwards.
However, the more remote the place became, the fewer dilapidated buildings and houses appeared. It seemed that there was little hope of continuing in this direction.
Gu Chen scrutinized the equipment in front of him; he had been looking at these for a day and a night, and the search perimeter kept shrinking and expanding. Even though he was the calmest, he was becoming a little nervous as more time pa.s.sed.
How could he not be worried about Lu Ning? How could he not want to go out and perform the search personally? However, there had to be someone in charge here. They needed someone to plan the searches instead of looking around blindly; that would only waste more time.
However, other than the brooch that Huo Jinyan had found, they had no other clues. It was as if everyone had disappeared from the face of the earth.
Shen Yunci and Lu Zhi had brought a lot of food when they came. They also suppressed their emotions and tried not to cause trouble for everyone.
Knowing that this group of people really wanted to find Ningning, the two of them silently put down their things and did not dare to disturb them. As she was leaving, Shen Yunci saw Huo Jinyan sitting on the steps.
He sat there, looking utterly lifeless.
Shen Yunci walked towards him…
