Gu Xiaoxi also knew that at such a moment, if she were to argue illogically, she would die even faster.

So, she sat on the sofa, waiting for Quan Shaoqing’s judgement.

After all, as long as she wasn’t afraid of death, nothing could threaten her.

In this new world, she was all alone. At worst, she’d just die another time. Maybe she’d even return to Luoli City.

Quan Shaoqing, seeing that Gu Xiaoxi really wasn’t afraid of death and was indifferent to life and death, narrowed his eyes and snickered, "You’ve got guts. Since that’s the case, I’ll oblige you. If you’re useful, I’ll give you a chance to live. Otherwise... you know what’s in store for you!"

Gu Xiaoxi shrugged her shoulders, indifferent!

As long as they didn’t tie her up, fry or boil her, or come at her with knives and guns, her skills were more than enough to carve out a piece of freedom for herself.

"Take her down, Jin Xiao. If she survives, have her cleaned up before she comes out. If she dies, throw her body into the sea to feed the fish!" Quan Shaoqing commanded indifferently.

Controlling the life and death of others, he spoke as casually as if he were commenting on how nice the weather was today.

This demon!

On the surface, Gu Xiaoxi kept her composure, but internally she cursed him and his ancestors for generations.

Gu Xiaoxi was led by Jin Xiao into the cabin.

In the basement, there was a huge iron cage, and inside the cage were five wolves. The terrifying bloodstains on the ground made it clear that these creatures were often used for heinous deeds.

"Miss Gu, right? The boss has bought you. As long as you serve well by his side, he won’t make things difficult for you," Jin Xiao explained to Gu Xiaoxi as he led her towards the iron cage.

"It was him who threatened me first. I didn’t do anything!" Gu Xiaoxi muttered quietly.

Obviously, she still didn’t know what she had done wrong.

"See that cage ahead? It houses seven wolves. Walk further in and you’ll find a cage with four tigers.

If you can make it out alive, the boss said he’ll let you go.

If you don’t, and get eaten by the wolves and tigers, nobody here will have any sympathy for you," Jin Xiao said coldly, looking at the cages not far away.

The wolves and tigers inside were in a state of hunger; such a method was only used against the biggest traitors, as a form of torture and warning.

Gu Xiaoxi’s gaze towards the iron cage darkened. Because the animals were so hungry, the seven wolves inside were frantically battering the iron bars of the cage. Seeing a person, they roared loudly as if they had seen delicious food.

Gu Xiaoxi then looked towards the second cage.

Four tigers showed their fangs and roared, accompanied by the clanging sounds of the cage, creating a deadly and tense atmosphere throughout the basement.

Gu Xiaoxi swallowed hard. Damn it!

She had never seen these creatures before and was terrified to the point of weakness in her legs.

"Big brother, can you plead for me? I’m wrong. I won’t run around, look around, or talk recklessly again," Gu Xiaoxi clutched Jin Xiao’s arm, almost clinging to his leg.

"The fact that the boss didn’t shoot you on the spot should be enough for you to be grateful," Jin Xiao replied coldly, pulling his sleeve back from Gu Xiaoxi and ordering the men in black behind him, "Keep an eye on her; don’t let her escape."

"Heartless demon." Gu Xiaoxi realized by now that these people were definitely part of a gang that did unspeakable things. "I hope the police wipe you out soon."

"What did you say...?" the man in black suddenly stepped forward, menacingly growling at her.

Gu Xiaoxi quickly gave a placating smile, "I didn’t say anything..."

In the luxurious cabin hall, Young Master Quan sat on a sofa, with two blond, blue-eyed women kneeling respectfully at his feet.

"From now on, we belong to Young Master Quan. We are at your command," the two beauties said, though their trembling bodies betrayed their fear. They were obviously very afraid and very nervous.

Quan Shaoqing took out his laptop and didn’t even give them a glance, instructing someone by his side, "Take them down and change their clothes."

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, the faces of the two women went even paler.

Usually, someone of Quan Shaoqing’s status buying women on the black market had only one purpose.

That was, to use them as gifts on the spot!

The two women, despite their fear, still obediently did as they were told.

Either way, living on meagerly meant they still had their lives. If they were to defy Quan Shaoqing, they’d likely be sent directly to feed the fish.

Surrounded by a group of men in black, Gu Xiaoxi had no choice but to enter the iron cage.

The moment her foot stepped in, the seven wolves leaped towards her.

Startled, Gu Xiaoxi didn’t hesitate to jump up, reaching the top of the cage and grabbing onto the iron bars, hanging there.

The wolves missed their leap and immediately stared with glowing green eyes, howling furiously. Clearly annoyed that their meal had escaped.

"What do I do?" Gu Xiaoxi hung upside down from the cage, her mind racing.

One person cannot fight off many hands, let alone seven swift wolves. A moment’s carelessness could result in losing an arm or a leg.

Gu Xiaoxi gritted her teeth. Although she often got into fights and brawls and could handle anything thrown her way, she had never faced such a kill-or-be-killed situation before.

Thinking of Quan Shaoqing’s terrifying gaze and then looking at the seven wolves eyeing her hungrily,

Gu Xiaoxi felt that no matter what she did, she was facing a dead end. The only way to save herself was to kill these wolves and prevent herself from becoming their food.

"Dude, at least give me a dagger." Gu Xiaoxi hung at the top of the cage, throwing flirtatious glances at the man in black outside, smiling and trying to ingratiate herself.

But nobody took any notice of her for a long time.

Damn!

Gu Xiaoxi’s delicate face showed a trace of gravity, her phoenix eyes gradually tightening, a hint of murderous intent in her gaze.

Having been given the hard-earned chance to relive her life, if she were to end up as a beast’s snack, she’d die with her eyes wide open, fighting till the end.

Gu Xiaoxi let go and plummeted downwards, a frenzied wolf below her.

The wolf, with its jaws wide open, was ready to bite the falling food, but unexpectedly got a kick to the head, sent flying into the cage and slamming into it hard.

Immediately, blood flowed from the wolf’s nose, and it lay on the ground twitching, clearly unable to stand any longer.

The onlookers outside the cage gasped in surprise! Such quick, ruthless strikes.

After successfully dealing with one wolf, Gu Xiaoxi rolled away to dodge the attacks of two other wolves.

Then two more wolves lunged at her, while the remaining two blocked her escape route.

The wolves were incredibly fast, but Gu Xiaoxi was even quicker.

Since she had no dagger, and the wolves were extremely hungry, they threw themselves at her recklessly.

Gu Xiaoxi dared not be the slightest bit careless.

She stood up, leapt up again, and hung herself back on top of the cage.

The cage was ten meters high, so even the most agitated wolves below couldn’t reach her.

Gu Xiaoxi caught her breath, looking down at the wolves below trying to jump up and bite her, sweat trickling down her forehead.

Without hesitation, she leapt down again.

But the wolves were very clever; when she jumped down, they all dodged out of the way.

Gu Xiaoxi’s second strike failed!

One had to admit, the wolves raised by Quan Shaoqing were very cunning.

If it was useless this way...

Gu Xiaoxi narrowed her eyes, she suddenly sprang up, kicking against the cage and quickly jumping around.

Finally, a wolf could not contain itself and lunged at her first.

Gu Xiaoxi seized the opportunity, landing a punch on the wolf’s head.

It was unknown just how much force that punch carried.

All everyone saw was the ferocious wolf being hit hard and crashing to the ground. Although its nose wasn’t bleeding, it took a good while before it could barely get back on its feet.

Gu Xiaoxi dodged and counterattacked, quickly landing punches on all six wolves that could attack her.

Exhausted!

Gu Xiaoxi felt that if she didn’t finish these creatures off quickly, she’d be bitten to death due to her dwindling physical strength and slowing speed.

By now, the six wolves appeared to have learned their lesson.

They all charged at her from every direction at once.

Gu Xiaoxi took the chance to roll out of their attack circle and punched the wolf closest to her.

At that moment, the wolves behind her had already rushed to her front.

She started to counter, but because of the fast reaction of the pack behind her, she couldn’t defend in time, and her back was viciously raked by a claw.

Sharp pain followed, accompanied by the smell of blood.

Gu Xiaoxi’s heart turned cold, and her strikes became even more ruthless.

She stepped on a wolf’s head, flipped over, and kicked at another wolf. Any wolf her foot kicked fell to the ground dead on the spot.

Moreover, they had already been punched by her earlier and were injured.

Having taken care of three wolves, the pressure on Gu Xiaoxi greatly reduced.

Without any hesitation, she jumped up, flipped, and landed next to a wolf, punching it in the stomach. Instantly, the whole wolf was sent flying into the cage and died.

At that moment, two wolves charged at her. Without hesitation, she chose one and struck swiftly and fiercely!

One minute later, all seven wolves lay on the ground, bleeding from their mouths and noses, clearly suffering from internal injuries caused by the beating!

The men in black standing to the side widened their eyes in astonishment. To kill seven wolves with bare hands required extremely fierce punches.

Furthermore, the one doing it appeared to be a frail young lady.

Gu Xiaoxi felt a burning pain where her back was bleeding. Her physical strength had also been severely depleted. At this moment, she was gasping for breath, and her hair was soaked with sweat.
