The men must have freed him after they had left.
As if knowing that the cruise ship had encountered an accident and was about to sink, Dietris hysterically ordered his men to release the lifeboat.
He had been hit on the head by Youyou with a vase, so even though he had regained consciousness, he still looked like he was in a daze and rather confused.
At the sound of footsteps on the deck, Dietris turned. When he saw the twins, he stumbled and fell to the ground.
He seemed terrified by the sight of Little Yichen, and kept shrinking back as he pointed at the boy with trembling fingers. He yelled at the top of his voice, “Kill them! Don’t let them get away alive. Kill them…”
Youyou was taken aback. He realized that Dietris had gone completely mad. He probably knew that Little Yichen’s abilities were extraordinary, so he would resort to any means to kill him.
Still…
Little Yichen was now injured. His abdomen had been pierced by Dietris’ hidden weapon. If he had been safe and sound, it might not have been a problem to deal with the few remaining soldiers. But given his injuries now, it would have been dangerous if the enemy focused their attacks on the boy.
Little Yichen was not afraid at all. He stepped forward and shielded Youyou and Yun Shishi behind him. He said coldly, “If you dare to take a step forward, I swear that I’ll make sure you die without a complete corpse!”
Even if he had to risk his life, he would protect his mother and Youyou!
A few of Dietris’ subordinates were about to draw their daggers and rush forward, but when they heard this, they found themselves hesitating.
They did not have guns on them, but even if they did, they might not have dared to rush forward so recklessly.
If they had a gun, they would have been a little more confident.
However, they were unarmed, and had no chance of winning if they had to fight with their bare hands!
Among these people, one of them had experienced Little Yichen’s terrifying skills!
It was hard to imagine that such a small child could possess such a powerful energy!
Even though the person standing in front of them was only an eight-year-old child, his gaze was stone cold and his presence was chilling. His entire body seemed to be bathed in blood. His aura was powerful and overbearing!
Even an adult warrior who had been through hundreds of battles would not have such a terrifying and powerful aura!
This aura was definitely not because of his extraordinary skills, but because of his strong desire to protect!
In his heart, there were people he wanted to protect. Therefore, even though he might appear weak, he could emit a terrifying energy in the blink of an eye!
“What are you waiting for!?” Dietris kicked one of his men. “Go! Go! Are you afraid of a child?! He’s injured! I stabbed his abdomen!”
After a pause, Dietris gritted his teeth and said, “Focus on his injuries and attack these weakened areas!”
The subordinates exchanged glances before lunging at Mu Yichen hesitantly.
Little Yichen pushed Youyou away and told him, “Protect Mommy!”
Youyou nodded and took Yun Shishi’s hand, leading her to the side for safety.
Yun Shishi was worried about Little Yichen. She was worried that he would get injured by these people who had surrounded him. Youyou held her back and said to her, “Mommy, don’t get involved. Otherwise, you will definitely cause more trouble!”
“But… we can’t just watch this…”
“I have an idea.”
