After rebirth, she discovered the space golden finger

Chapter 598: Isolated Island (11)

At midnight on the second-to-last day, Minglu and Yufeng went to the prison. Both of them were spirit talisman masters and were very familiar with the use of talismans.

Minglu refined thirty-four ninth-grade barrier-breaking talismans. With her skill level, each talisman was a top-grade talisman. The two quickly began using talismans to break through barriers...

At the same time, Pei Yun and the others, who had recovered their spiritual power, quickly subdued everyone on the island. After all, in terms of combat strength, cultivators were a force to be reckoned with against ordinary people.

After Minglu released everyone from the prison, Pei Yun and the others locked up all the arrested people.

At this moment, there were less than three hours left before the spiritual power was sealed. Zhou Feng held the array plate, and the other five people held array flags to help him set up the array...

As dawn broke, Pei Yun gathered the rescued people together and had Fu Lingchen and the others arrange for the imprisoned doctors, guards, and important figures who had come to the island to be taken to the dock.

"Everyone, I know you were either tricked into coming to this deserted island or were captured here. Now you have been rescued. These criminals have been captured by me and my companions, and I have also contacted the police outside to come and rescue you..."

Pei Yun stood at the very front, looking at the hundreds of victims and bound people in front of him, and spoke loudly.

Upon hearing Pei Yun's words, a light gradually returned to the eyes of these victims. Some collapsed to the ground, weeping uncontrollably; some covered their faces and wailed; some stared blankly at the sea, muttering to themselves; and some even angrily rushed into the group of bound people, punching and kicking them to vent their rage...

Such an action clearly ignited a fire in the hearts of the victims present, who had been tormented for so long and needed a way to vent their frustrations.

First it was one person, then several, and finally almost everyone rushed into the group of people who were tied up, attacking them fiercely...

"Stop it, you ignorant bunch!"

"...Do you know who I am? Once we're outside, I'll make you wish you were dead!"

"They really are a bunch of lowly commoners, they deserve to die..."

"You think you'll be saved once you get out... How ridiculous! Once you're outside... you'll still die..."

Among the bound people, some cried out in pain while cursing wildly, completely tearing away their outward dignity and revealing their hideous faces.

Just then, Pei Yun, who was watching from the sidelines, suddenly raised her hand, allowing her five companions to stop the beating. She then calmly approached the dean.

The culprit had been beaten black and blue, his head looked like a pig's head, and his white coat was covered in countless footprints.

When he saw Pei Yun walk up to him, his body trembled slightly with fear, but he quickly straightened up, pretending to be calm, and raised his chin to meet Pei Yun's gaze.

"You... just said that even if they get outside, they won't be able to be rescued?" Pei Yun asked cryptically.

The dean chuckled, then accidentally tugged at the wound on his lip, hissing involuntarily. He arrogantly declared, "...Am I wrong? This world ultimately belongs to the rich and powerful. You really think that escaping the island means escaping our control? You're far too naive!"

He had barely finished speaking when he was pushed by someone behind him. The person kneeling behind him was one of the important figures living in the villa area.

This person never expected the dean to be so stupid. His life was still in someone else's hands, yet he dared to provoke him like this. Even if he really had such thoughts, he should have said them outside the office.

He said sincerely, "...If you release us, I and everyone here assure you that we can protect the safety of these victims and provide some compensation. As for any requests you and your companions may have, we can also fulfill them..."

"I agree."

"As long as you keep what happened on the island a secret, we can pretend nothing happened, and you and the victims will receive the compensation you deserve..."

The bigwigs in the villa area are much smarter than the dean; they know that those who are pragmatic are wise.

“Pei Yun…” Fu Lingchen and the others stepped forward. “We will support whatever decision you make.” The others nodded in agreement.

Pei Yun glanced around, looking at the anxious and expectant victims and the group of bound people. He remained silent for a long time, then turned to look at the shimmering sea. The sea stretched as far as the eye could see, with no one or anything in sight.

Neither the pleas for help from those important figures nor Pei Yun's appeals to the outside world seemed to receive any response; the entire island appeared to be isolated from the world...

At that moment, Pei Yun suddenly made a decision. She turned to Fu Lingchen and said, "I was wrong..."

"Huh?" Fu Lingchen looked back at Pei Yun in confusion, not understanding what she meant. The others also looked at Pei Yun with puzzlement.

"Since the rules of this world cannot bring justice to these innocent victims, then let's break the rules and I will be the judge!"

Pei Yun's voice grew increasingly firm as she spoke, gazing at everyone present with an unprecedented aura that seemed to burst forth from her chest.

Without a word of explanation to the crowd, Pei Yun took out a scalpel from her bosom—something she had kept on hand for self-defense—and walked step by step towards the hospital director.

"What are you going to do?!"

The dean had already sensed the murderous intent in the man before him. Terrified, he collapsed to the ground, his previous arrogance completely gone. He cried out in a panic, "...I'll give you money, whatever you want...I'll give you anything, please don't kill me! Don't kill me...I was wrong...please..."

Pei Yun, knife in hand, approached him: "I must thank you properly. You made me realize that this is an isolated island, but there's an even bigger one outside. As long as we're in that island, you evil people can never be completely eradicated..."

"Pei Yun!" Fu Lingchen quickly came to her side, grabbed her arm to stop her from making a move, and whispered, "...The people in the temple can see everything we did during the trial mission. He's just an ordinary person. Don't be impulsive. Didn't you already contact the law enforcement outside the island? You told me before that we should use the rules. The crimes they committed should be punished by the rules of this world..."

Fu Lingchen was implying that she shouldn't take matters into her own hands, as righteous cultivators on the Vast Universe Continent rarely interfere in the karma of mortals.

If Pei Yun were to personally kill this mortal at this moment, the people in the temple outside might feel that she was too murderous.

but……

"...That's why I told you earlier that I was wrong. Using the rules will only lead to being assimilated by them and submitting to them. What I'm doing now is breaking the rules."

As he spoke, Pei Yun looked at the group of victims, "...Let them stand up for themselves this time!"

"If Heaven's justice is unjust, then I shall be Heaven's justice!"

Without hesitation, she raised her hand and stabbed the dean in the chest. The dean stared wide-eyed at Pei Yun, panting heavily, his face contorted in a horrifying way, and blood from his chest quickly soaked his clothes.

Pei Yun handed the scalpel to Fu Lingchen. Fu Lingchen hesitated for a few seconds, then took the scalpel and stabbed the dean as well…

The scalpel was passed from person to person, not only to Pei Yun and the other five, but also to Yu Feng. Each of the victims stabbed one of the bound people present.

Unlike the calm demeanor of the six participants, the victims present could be described as having shining eyes.

They watched as the superiors who treated them like dirt struggled in anger and resentment, groaning helplessly as they endured excruciating pain with each cut, blood gushing out continuously. Soon, the area was a river of blood, flowing into the sea...

Bathed in the glow of blood and the setting sun, the scene on the desolate island before us resembled a mysterious ritual unfolding...
