Chapter 7 A Deity Descending From Heaven

In a minute, Finneas covered dozens of kilometers. To avoid trouble, he landed about three or four hundred meters from home and then slowly walked back, carrying his large shopping bags. However, after a few steps, he heard the roar of engines coming from the direction of his house! “Is that the sound of excavators?” Finneas' expression changed. From Alyssa and Kelly's previous conversation, it was clear that the relocation issue was more complicated than he had imagined. This suggested that someone might be forcefully demolishing their home with Alyssa and Kelly still inside! They were merely young ladies. At that moment, Finneas' expression was chillingly cold. The killing intent emanating from him seemed to darken the sky around him. Very well! I haven't even sought you out, and you dare come knocking on my door! Do you really not know what it means to court death? Everyone had a bottom line. For Finneas, it was his little sister, Alyssa! Meanwhile, in front of the dilapidated small house, two yellow excavators were parked. A dozen burly men stood by the excavators, leering at the two young girls standing in their way, spewing all sorts of vile words. “Young and beautiful with slender waists. These two young girls are quite the catch!” “Haha... you wouldn't get this kind for less than three or four thousand!” “Three or four thousand? You're dreaming! If they're virgins, at least ten thousand to start!” “I heard they're university students, tsk tsk... University students are good at this!” Hearing the filthy words from the hooligans, Alyssa and Kelly turned red with anger but were helpless. They didn't even dare to talk back, fearing it would provoke the men further. “Little girls, get out of the way! If the house collapses and crushes your frail bodies, it would break our hearts!” the middle-aged man leading them said mockingly. His eyes roamed over Alyssa and Kelly, filled with undisguised lust. He looked just like a hungry wolf. “No way! The relocation compensation hasn't been settled yet. What you're doing is illegal! I've already called the police. Just wait and see!” Kelly said, spreading her arms to shield Alyssa like a protective mother hen. “Oh, calling the police? I'm so scared!” The middle-aged man melodramatically clutched his chest, putting on a show of being terribly frightened. Subsequently, he turned his gaze to his subordinates behind him, saying, “Did you hear that? She said she's called the police!” “Hahaha...” “Call the police? That really scared us!” His men laughed mockingly, their derision obvious. “H-Hey!” Kelly was so angry her face turned red, but she didn't know what else to say. As a young girl, how could she possibly stand a chance against such local ruffians? At that moment, Alyssa exhaled a deep breath and said with a pale face, “Kelly, this has nothing to do with you. You should go.” “No way! What will you do if I leave you alone?” Kelly shook her head, looking worried. “Kelly, your presence here is useless and will only get you in trouble!” Alyssa said with a bitter smile. Kelly gritted her teeth, feeling a sense of helplessness. These people were clearly prepared and had probably smoothed things out behind the scenes. She never imagined that one day she would encounter the kind of forced demolition she only heard about in the news. “I don't have time to waste with you two. Move!” After a glance at the time, the middle-aged man leading the group had clearly run out of patience. “This is my home. I won't let you touch it!” Alyssa said resolutely, but her trembling body showed how terrified she truly was. “Really? I've seen plenty of people like you who don't value their lives. Do you think I care?” The middle-aged man sneered, waving his hand. “Someone, take these two girls aside. If they resist, beat them!” “Yes, Grover!” Two thugs stepped forward, grinning as they approached Alyssa and Kelly, rubbing their hands together in anticipation. It was normal for them to touch the ladies when they were moving the ladies out of the way, right? Seeing this, Kelly stepped back in fear, while Alyssa looked desperate. She felt a chill enveloping her entire body. She wished for a hero to save and help her out of this crisis! For some reason, Finneas' face suddenly popped into her mind. If he were here, would he stand up for me? Probably not! So many people came this time! Even if he were here, he'd probably stand aside in fear. Besides, he isn't a good person! If he were, why would he have left home for ten years for a woman? As the sleazy men got closer, Alyssa picked up a brick from the ground, gripping it tightly. Even if she had to die, she would defend her dignity. But just then, a voice cold as ice reached everyone's ears. “If you two take another step, you'll die!” The voice was bone-chilling, making everyone shiver. Who is it? Everyone turned to see a young man with long flowing hair, stubble, and a melancholic expression. “F-Finn...” Alyssa's gaze was unfocused. She had just been wondering if Finneas would stand up for her, and here he was, walking toward her without hesitation. “Um... The guy here to take a dump?” Kelly covered her mouth, staring at Finneas who appeared as if a deity had descended from the heavens. She found it utterly unbelievable. As for the seven or eight ruffians in the scene, after a brief moment of confusion, they quickly gathered their wits. Their faces turned red not from fear, but from anger. D*mn it! There are so many of us, and we almost got scared by a single guy? A long-haired one, no less? An artist? “D*mn it, are you out of your mind? Get lost, now!” “So what if I take another step? What can you do to me? D*mb*ss!” The two underlings cursed. Both of them were closing in on Alyssa and Kelly, eager to get their hands on them. Naturally, they were p*ssed off after getting scared by Finneas' warning. Upon seeing this, Grover and his group all revealed knowing smiles. His face devoid of expressions, Finneas walked up to the two underlings. “What's your problem? You think you can play hero?” “Move, you're in our way.” Crack! In the next moment, Finneas grabbed the two underlings by their necks with his hands, lifting them effortlessly. No matter how they struggled, they were like helpless chicks. “This...” Upon witnessing this scene, everyone present was shocked. These were two burly men, each weighing over eighty kilograms. And yet, they were effortlessly hoisted with just one hand. How much strength would that take? Alyssa's expression was complex. Where had Finneas been in the past ten years? How did he suddenly become so powerful?
