Sold for 300, I Fight Back with Superpowers

Su Qing, who Xiang thought was in an impossible situation, had only been gone from the noodle shop with Brother Hu and his men for a short while when Brother Hu turned to his thugs and said, ”Alright, you guys can head back. I can handle this myself.”

Hearing this, the thugs were reluctant to leave. They might not get a piece of such a beautiful girl, but it was nice just to look a little longer.

But they didn’t dare disobey Brother Hu’s command. Just as they were dragging their feet, preparing to leave, they heard Su Qing say, ”What? They’re all leaving? If I’m alone with you, I’ll be a little scared.”

”What are you afraid of? It’s not like I’m going to eat you,” Brother Hu said, chuckling as he looked at Su Qing.

Su Qing pursed her lips. ”Then have them walk with us a little longer. I know what you’re thinking, but... you have to let me get used to the idea.”

Brother Hu was already completely smitten with Su Qing’s beauty. Hearing that she didn’t seem to be rejecting him, but just needed time to adjust, how could he refuse? He failed to notice anything amiss and waved his hand at his thugs. ”Fine, you can follow along for now. Wait until we get there, then you can leave.”

When the thugs heard they could keep following along and steal a few more glances at the beauty, they didn’t give it a second thought and gleefully agreed.

And so, the group headed for Brother Hu’s old house.

Brother Hu had it all planned out. Although he had some men under him, there were plenty of people in Xiangcheng more powerful than he was. He had never in his life seen a girl with such looks. His first thought was to make her his own. He was afraid if anyone else saw her, they would snatch her away. If his own boss saw her, for example, he would definitely be forced to offer her up, and he couldn’t bear that.

Therefore, he planned to take Su Qing to his old house and imprison her there. That way, no one could try to take her from him.

Brother Hu’s old house was quite remote. You had to pass through a patch of woods, and the path there was winding. People unfamiliar with it could easily get lost. That’s why he thought keeping Su Qing at the old house was the best option.

Brother Hu was very pleased with his plan. As for Su Qing, she looked at the surrounding environment and was even more pleased.

And so, with each harboring their own secret plans, they walked on without incident.

Soon, they arrived at the edge of the woods.

Seeing the woods, Su Qing stopped in her tracks.

Noticing she had stopped, Brother Hu turned to look at her. ”Let’s go. Why aren’t you walking?”

”Yeah, Brother Hu’s old house is still up ahead. We’ve still got a ways to go.”

”Hahaha, don’t tell me you’re getting impatient. Even if you are, this isn’t the place.”

The thugs snickered and teased.

Brother Hu was confused at first, but after hearing his thugs’ comments, he grinned. ”What, you don’t want to fool around in the wild, do you? Heh, not that I’m against it.”

After speaking, Brother Hu stroked his chin, his eyes narrowed as he looked Su Qing up and down with a sleazy smile. He reached out an arm to wrap around her waist.

”Heh, sure. We can have a fight and see,” Su Qing said with a cold laugh, slapping Brother Hu’s hand away.

They were surrounded by forest. At the current level of Su Qing’s Wood Ability, the hundred-meter area around them was her Domain. She could beat these men until they were crying for their mothers with her physical skills alone, to say nothing of the fact that they were now standing in her Domain.

”Oho, she’s got some fight in her.” Brother Hu wasn’t the least bit angry that Su Qing had slapped his hand away. In fact, he was even more excited. A woman could have a bit of a temper, he thought, as long as she didn’t go too far.

As for Su Qing’s talk about a fight, Brother Hu didn’t take it seriously at all.

Su Qing looked so delicate and weak; Brother Hu didn’t see her as a threat in the slightest. He had always believed that women were weak, naturally inferior to men. He had even overpowered female officers from the police department before, so he was naturally brimming with confidence. Besides, he had several of his thugs with him now.

”Of course I know how to hit people.” Before the words were even out of her mouth, Su Qing’s fist smashed into Brother Hu’s left eye socket.

”Ah!” A sharp pain shot through Brother Hu’s left eye socket. The punch sent him staggering backward a few steps before he collapsed onto the ground. He clutched his left eye, momentarily stunned!

Seeing Su Qing knock their boss to the ground with a single punch, the thugs were instantly shocked.

Before the thugs could react, Brother Hu snapped out of it and roared in fury, ”You lot, hold her down for me!”

Brother Hu was furious. It was the first time in his adult life he’d ever been hit by a woman—getting beaten by his own mother as a child didn’t count, of course.

His anger flared, and all thoughts of cherishing the fairer sex vanished. He had been beaten in front of his underlings. If he didn’t get his revenge today, how could he ever command their respect again? If word got out that he, Wang Dahu, had been beaten by a woman, what face would he have left?

”You got it, Brother Hu.” The thugs were secretly delighted. They rushed forward to grab Su Qing, their minds already on how they could use this chance to cop a feel and sneak a few touches.

The question of whether several grown men could actually restrain Su Qing never even crossed their minds. It was a joke, right? A few big guys can’t hold down one woman?

But as it turned out, fate had a great sense of humor.

The moment they got close to Su Qing, before they could even touch the hem of her clothes, they each felt a sharp pain in their stomachs and were sent flying backward.

”OW, holy hell, it hurts like a motherfucker!”

”Owwwww, it’s killing me.”

...

A chorus of wails erupted as the men clutched their stomachs and rolled on the ground. Su Qing hadn’t held back with those kicks at all.

Brother Hu, however, was dumbfounded. ’What did I just see?’

A delicate little thing had sent several grown men flying in an instant. The crucial part was, even though he had been staring right at her, he hadn’t seen how she kicked. He only saw a faint afterimage.

’Isn’t that speed a little too fast?’

’Is that even humanly possible?’

Brother Hu began to wonder if he was hallucinating.

But what happened next went beyond mere hallucination. It made him question his very existence.

From the woods, from the very ground, countless vines and branches surged forth. Before any of them could react, they were bound up tightly.

”AHHHH... A MONSTER!”

”You... you’re not human... What are you...?”

The thugs were terrified by the scene. Who had ever seen vines and branches actively tying people up?

It was as if... as if these things had a will of their own. But the vines and branches didn’t bind Su Qing, which made them realize in an instant that the woman was likely the one controlling them.

The thought was insane!

But faced with the scene before them, they couldn’t find any other explanation. Everyone, including Brother Hu, stared at Su Qing in terror.

”You... What in the world are you?”
