Chapter Thirty-Eight Beauty

  In the distance, faintly came the sound of human voices.

  Yue Yang couldn't help but sigh again, ordering the Shadow of the Barbaric Cow to pick up the devil's broken arm. Then, with a swift movement, they slipped into the darkness. The Shadow of the Barbaric Cow carried the devil's arm, which still had residual frost on it, and followed closely behind Yue Yang. Just as they were about to disappear into the darkness, Yue Yang turned his head and took one last look at the Mysterious Thief, who was still lying motionless on the ground, unconscious.

  A white shadow, faster than lightning, flashes across the night sky, appearing on the battlefield.

  She is a palace beauty, with a white gauze lightly covering her jade face, but the light gauze reveals and cannot hide the snowy skin and delicate complexion inside.

  In those exceptionally bright and clear autumn pupils, there is a light full of wisdom. Under the long curved eyelashes, a lively and delightful spirit flashes out.

  She gazed at the bright eyes of the thief lying quietly on the ground, and suddenly exclaimed: "How did it become like this as soon as I left for a while... Fortunately, it's just spiritual exhaustion, no big deal!" In the darkness, the sound of footsteps grew louder, with countless footsteps echoing from afar. The palace-dressed beauty's black eyebrows furrowed slightly, her lotus-white arm extended from her long sleeve, and her slender fingers pointed to summon a golden treasure book.

  As golden light flashed, a small fairy with butterfly wings floated out and flew into the fragrant body of a beautifully dressed woman.

  In an instant, behind Yu Gong's beautiful body, a pair of huge butterfly wings appeared.

  The palace-dressed beauty gently picked up the unconscious Mingwu thief, flapped her wings behind her back, and took off into the air, like a fairy descending from the ninth heaven. She floated away, and when she was far gone, the figure that had been quietly hiding in the darkness of Yueyang slowly emerged, turned around, and quickly left in the opposite direction of the palace-dressed beauty, lightly and nimbly merging into the darkness.

  Just as Yue Yang had just left, a middle-aged man with the majestic aura of a golden lion, brought a gust of wild wind and rushed onto the battlefield.

  He found the main building of Kawahara Village collapsed and burning fiercely, and was shocked into a loud cry.

  The battlefield was in chaos, with wolf-like troops everywhere.

  The ground was left with a deep and terrifying scar, almost cutting the earth in two within a hundred meters. Everywhere, there were scattered, smoldering embers of hellfire that had not yet been extinguished. Some corpses had been burned to charcoal, while others still retained their limbs and skulls. Not a single person survived, including the strongest captain of the guard who took his last breath.

  This furious lion-like man, with bulging eyes, couldn't help but throw his head back and roar: "How infuriating! How infuriating!"

  Several warriors arrived one after another, and when they saw this scene, they were all scared and their legs became a little weak.

  "What are you waiting for? Search for survivors, find out all the useful clues, I want to know who did this and right now!" The furious man pulled out a thick-backed golden knife from behind his back, furiously chopping at the ground, making it even more tattered.

  "Master Jin Dao Lou, there's a situation here..." A man with the appearance of a thief discovered suspicious marks next to the captain of the guard.

  "Evil Fire? Six Kings?" The middle-aged man, furious like a lion, discovered that the captain of the guard, before his death, had written four blurry blood characters on the stone surface next to him with his own blood. After careful observation, he could barely make out the words "Evil Fire, Six Kings". The lion-like man, respectfully called the master of Golden Blade Building by his subordinates, changed color after reading it, and immediately rose up a wave of uncontrollable fury, his fists clenched tightly making cracking sounds: "No matter who it is, we will definitely settle this account with him!"

  "There is a blank space circled by the treasure map, it's estimated that one of the contract treasure warriors has survived......" Another subordinate made a new discovery.

  "Find him, a heavy reward is offered! We, the Quick Joy Forest, will spare no expense to get to the bottom of this! I absolutely will not allow any devil worshipers to run amok in the Great Xia Kingdom, and even more so, I will not tolerate that damned scum using our citizens as human sacrifices!" The Golden Blade Sect Master was furious, his face red with rage, bellowing nonstop.

  The courtyard of Yueyang.

  A beautiful woman holding a young servant girl, accompanied by several servants, came knocking on the door with a frightened expression.

  She didn't care that Yue Yang was still wearing his nightgown, and hastily handed over the little girl: "Third Brother, White Stone City is in chaos, maybe it's the Black Mountain bandits attacking the city. Just now, Uncle Nan went out to investigate, saying that the west of the city has become a sea of flames. You quickly take Frost and leave! Hurry, hurry!" Little Yue Shuang was scared and cried, refusing to leave her mother, but when she saw Yue Yang, she threw herself into his arms and tattled, crying pitifully: "Mommy hit me, Third Brother, I didn't do anything wrong, Mommy also wants to hit people... it hurts so much, waaahhh!"

  "Frosty, don't cry!"

  As soon as he saw the beautiful woman's expression, Yueyang knew she had misunderstood.

  She must have thought that Baishi City was attacked by the horse thieves, and in order to protect her precious daughter, she hastily came to find herself, letting herself take this little girl and escape before the horse thieves arrived.

  What a good fourth daughter!

  She didn't think about her own safety at all, she just cared about her son and daughter!

  A surge of heat rose in the man's heart, flowing through his entire body, finally rushing to his throat and blocking it, almost unable to speak.

  Yueyang took a deep breath, suppressing the emotions in his heart. He gently patted Xiaoyao's back while comforting the beautiful woman with a serious expression: "Fourth Sister, don't be afraid. Even if there really are bandits coming to kill us, I will protect you and Frost Maiden! Fourth Sister, trust me, there are no bandits. Outside is just the warriors of Kuai Huo Lou fighting. I looked out from the rooftop earlier, except for the fire being a bit big and burning down several rooms, nothing else seems to be happening!"

  "Really isn't a horse thief coming?" The beautiful woman's face suddenly became much more relaxed upon hearing this, but still looked puzzled.

  "It's definitely not, the bandits of Montenegro are actually the private soldiers of the lord of Baishi City. They would never come to attack Baishi City!" Yueyang explained patiently.

  "Oh my god, I was so scared to death!" The beautiful woman's heart sank, still patting her chest with lingering fear. She was frightened enough and needed to calm down her racing heart. The servants behind her heard that it wasn't the bandits attacking the city and cheered in unison, relieved that the disaster had dissipated into thin air, and everyone's life was spared.

  Inside the borders of Dashan, there are many mountains and treacherous terrain. Many bandits and robbers occupy the wild mountains and valleys as their stronghold, plundering the surrounding villages.

  Due to the weakness of national power, ineffective local governance, and external support and espionage activities, some local lords and nobles colluded with bandits and robbers. As a result, the Da Xia horse thieves became notorious for their ferocity, and despite repeated government crackdowns, they only grew more ruthless. Except for walled cities, ordinary villages that did not pay protection money to the horse thieves would often suffer massacres and slaughter. There were frequently infamous and exceptionally powerful bandit gangs that successfully attacked small towns, occupying and ruling them for one or two months before leaving when national troops arrived.

  Bandits attack the city, the city is broken, conventionally, they massacre for one day and indulge in carnal pleasures for three days.

  Anyone who displeases them is beheaded and paraded, while beautiful young women are mostly taken away for their carnal pleasure, or even sold into slavery and prostitution.

  So, all the women of large families have a chastity pill, once they fall into an absolute predicament, in order to preserve their reputation and chastity, the women of wealthy families will swallow the chastity pill, poison themselves to death, ensuring that they are not defiled by bandits.

  In the small purse in the beautiful woman's bosom, there was such a green poisonous pill. Yueyang feared that she would do something foolish and hastily declared that there were no bandits attacking the city.

  After Yueyang's repeated assurances, the beautiful woman's heart was somewhat calmer.

  The beautiful woman held the little girl who had cried herself to sleep, and sat in her room at Yueyang all night. It wasn't until old servant Nan Shu went out several times to gather information and confirmed that it was not a bandit attack on the city that she returned to rest and catch up on sleep just before dawn. After such a scare, the beautiful woman slept restlessly for many days afterwards, sometimes even feeling dazed during the day, always worried that the bandits would come.

  Although she didn't say it out loud, Yueyang could tell at a glance that Si Niang had obviously been frightened into having psychological shadows.

  Yueyang saw her slightly thinner face and secretly made a decision.

  The next day, old servant Nan Shu ran back excitedly to report: "Madam, young master, there's a huge piece of good news! The horse thieves on Black Mountain somehow offended a powerful person and were completely wiped out overnight..."

  As expected, the beautiful woman's heartache healed on its own, and her jade-like face regained its usual smile.

  The lord of Baishi City was naturally furious, but this mute owed him a debt that he couldn't express, and he also couldn't find the specific culprit to take revenge on.

  If Hei Yi Yue Bing was still at home practicing summoning techniques with Yue Yang, he would have discovered that his Thorny Flower had already evolved into a White Silver level 'Ghost Face Thorny Flower'.

  Although there were no outstanding warriors among the Hei Shan bandits, they had an advantage in numbers. After continuously devouring nearly a hundred people, Tuo Jin's level rose smoothly from Bronze to Silver. Yue Yang felt it was a pity that there were no third-class heroes among the Hei Shan bandits; otherwise, he estimated that Tuo Jin would have become Golden Tuo Jin by now.

  After devouring a hundred people, Stabbing Flower was now almost on par with Golden Grade.

  Yueyang practiced qigong every day, and his life gradually returned to calmness.

  Three days later, the beautiful woman carried Xiao Yaotou and walked into Yueyang's practice yard with a smile, waving the letter in her hand and said: "San Er, Bing Er has sent back a letter! I was worried that because of the Kaixin Lin matter, the letter would be affected, but unexpectedly today I received Bing Er's reply ahead of schedule!"

  She happily unfolded the snow-white letter paper and began to read it.

  Who would have thought that with a glance, her smile was lost and worry doubled on her face.

  "What's wrong? Has something happened to Seventh Sister?" Yueyang was startled, could it be that Yuebing had encountered danger on the first floor of Tongtian Tower during her training? He hastily put down the little girl who was playing in his arms: "Fourth Mother, why don't I go bring Ice Sister back?"
