"Grandma, eat more and joke less!"
Lin Lang simply smiled without saying anything.
...
"Yo! The old hag and the little shrimp are eating again?"
But just at that moment!
A sudden commotion erupted outside, breaking the peace.
Several small fishing boats docked at the shore, and a few young men jumped off the boats!
Each of them looked unruly and overbearing!
As soon as they arrived, they loudly demanded Little Goldfish hand over todayâs catch.
Little Goldfish frowned and said:
"I havenât caught much fish lately, just enough for us to eat."
Upon hearing this, the young men were immediately displeased, looking fierce as they said:
"Cut the crap and hand it over quickly, or donât blame us for being rude!"
As they spoke, they looked ready to start a fight!
The village elders, seeing trouble, quickly stepped in to stop them!
Though they were old, they couldnât bear to see Little Goldfish being bullied.
Each of them shakily stood in front, saying:
"Donât go too far! Erwa, weâre all from the same place, is this necessary?"
One of the young men sneered:
"Yeah, weâre from the same place! We have nothing to eat, so why canât you share some with us?"
Little Goldfish knew well enough that the other side had more people and she was no match for them.
But she didnât want to just hand over the hard-earned fishâ
After all, itâs the communityâs food supply.
The situation quickly reached an impasse, and it seemed like a fight was about to break out.
Just at this critical moment!
Lin Lang stepped forward!
He looked at the young men, sneered, and said:
"You big men, instead of finding food yourselves, you come to trouble a little girl? What kind of ability is that?"
The young men, hearing this, turned their attention to Lin Lang, dismissively saying:
"None of your business! Stop meddling and get lost if you know whatâs good for you!"
With that, they surrounded Lin Lang, clearly intending to attack him.
Little Goldfish, seeing this, was very worried about Lin Lang and quickly said:
"Forget it, Iâm willing to hand over the fish meat, just donât fight."
She thought that as long as this dispute could be calmed, sacrificing some food wouldnât matter, but she didnât want Lin Lang to get hurt because of her.
Hearing this, the young men grew even more arrogant, smugly saying:
"See, wouldnât it have been easier to do this from the start? Hmph, making us go through all this effort!"
But Lin Lang held Little Goldfish back, his eyes firm as he said:
"Donât be afraid of them, Iâm here."
Little Goldfish anxiously said:
"No! Theyâre very ruthless, theyâll do anything!"
"Yeah!"
A few nearby elders chimed in, recounting these peopleâs misdeeds!
In their overlapping accounts!
Lin Lang roughly understoodâ
These young people were also from the same village as the elders!
But after the apocalypse came!
The young people despised the elders for being unable to work and merely consuming resources.
So they drove these elders out!
Little Goldfish couldnât bear to see these elders starve and took on the responsibility of caring for them.
Who wouldâve thought!
These young men, unable to find food themselves, ended up coming to rob Little Goldfish and the elders!
Truly inhumane!
...
Lin Langâs eyes turned cold!
The young men not only showed no guilt, but even resented Lin Lang for meddling!
Each of them was readying their fists to fight.
But at that moment, a sudden change occurred in Lin Langâs aura!
The Domain instantly unfolded!
An immense power spread out from him at the center, enveloping the surroundings!
The young men suddenly felt an invisible pressure crush down on them, their legs went weak, and they uncontrollably dropped to their knees!
Terror filled their faces as they never expectedâ
This ordinary-looking man was actually so powerful!
"Superpower User!"
"Heâs a Superpower User too!"
"Oh my God!"
Immediately, everyone around realized that Lin Lang was an extraordinarily strong person!
The young men, once so arrogant, were now trembling with fear, quickly begging Lin Lang for mercy, pleading continuously:
"Spare us, sir, we know we were wrong, please donât hold it against us, have mercy and let us go!"
Lin Lang looked at their pathetic state, sneered, and said:
"You deserve to live? Committing such heinous acts deserves punishment!"
Hearing this, they grew more frightened, hurriedly saying:
"Please spare us, sir, we know weâre wrong, weâll never dare to do it again. Weâll return the stolen supplies right now, please forgive us this once!"
Lin Lang frowned, thought for a moment, and said:
"Iâll spare you, but hand over all your supplies to Little Goldfish! If you dare play any tricks, hmph, you wonât be so lucky next time!"
Hearing this, they felt massively relieved, nodding eagerly in agreement!
"Get lost!"
And so they scrambled away in panic!
Afraid that Lin Lang might change his mind.
The crowd, seeing the troublemakers driven away by Lin Lang, all expressed their gratitude to him.
The elders clasped Lin Langâs hands, continuously voicing their thanks.
Little Goldfish, too, looked grateful and surprised, saying:
"So you are a Superpower User too, and such a strong one at that."
Lin Lang smiled, waved it off modestly, and said:
"Just average."
...
But soon after!
Lin Lang had just finished eating!
