Ye Zhen knew of the existence of Bao Xiang, but it was from Qi Yanling's travels. At that time, Bao Xiang did not have such strange signs as now. What kind of ghost would need a child as a sacrifice? This is a sin!
This man dressed like a ghost should be the State Preceptor of Bao Xiang!
"Whether you agree or not, you must leave the baby in your hands today!" The State Preceptor pointed to Ming Yu in Ye Zhen's hand. No matter what, they must keep the child!
Ye Zhen sneered, "It really makes sense that ugly people do more mischief. If you are so ugly, you should hide at home and not come out to scare people. It's better to do less things like catching other people's children, so as to avoid retribution in the future."
"This child was guided by the gods to save our king!" The State Preceptor stared at Ye Zhen with wide eyes. He hated it when people called him ugly. "Come, take them all!"
Ye Zhen hated the State Preceptor so much that she took out the gun at her waist and fired directly at him. Unfortunately, she had not learned how to aim properly and the bullet only grazed the arm of the State Preceptor.
"Demon woman! What is this thing? "The State Preceptor's arm was injured, his eyes staring straight at the gun in Ye Zhen's hand. He had never seen such a hidden weapon. It was so powerful! If she had not missed, he would have been killed by now!
Ye Yiqing whispered, "Yao Yao, don't take out the gun. You don't need it to deal with these people."
"Father, listening to what he said, it seems that he has caught a lot of children!" Ye Zhen said angrily. She didn't want to meddle in other people's business, but as a mother, if someone caught her child, she would definitely fight with him.
"It seems that he wants to treat their king!" Zhao Yang said.
Ye Yiqing said, "Let's send you back to the ship first. If he really caught other children, kill him!"
The soldiers brought by the State Preceptor quickly surrounded them, but they were no match for Ye Yiqing at all. Soon, more than twenty people fell to the ground and could not get up. When the State Preceptor saw this, his face flashed with anger. He said to the people who stood by and watched, "Don't you want to bring your children back? Don't you want to cure the king's illness as soon as possible? As long as this demon woman is killed and her children are sacrificed to the gods, our kingdom can avoid disaster!"
"This ugly bastard is full of bewitchment. He wants the whole of Bao Xiang to deal with us!" Although Ye Zhen didn't understand what the state preceptor was saying, she could tell that he was talking to the common people. His intention was clear.
Ye Yiqing said in a deep voice, "He wants those people to snatch Ming Yu!"
"What's wrong with their king? Why is he capturing babies? No wonder he can be cured by using children as sacrifices?" Zhao Yang protected Ming Yu tightly and even instructed Hong Ying to take good care of Ming Xi.
When the onlookers heard the words of the State Preceptor, they immediately rushed towards Ye Zhen and the others. They also had children who were caught. If they could get their children back, they would do anything.
Ye Yiqing's face was cold. He didn't want to hurt innocent people. Once he hurt them, they would definitely lose their cool. At that time, the whole kingdom would stop them. No matter how powerful his martial arts were, he might not be able to protect Yao Yao and the others back to the ship.
"Second Uncle, what should we do?" Ye Chundong asked hurriedly.
"Don't hurt these people. Try to protect Yao Yao's mother and get out of here!" Ye Yiqing said in a deep voice.
Ye Zhen was protected by Hong Ying and two other people in the middle. Those people wanted to snatch the child, but they couldn't. Ming Yu was not sleeping well, and after being disturbed by the people around her, she began to cry. Her cries stimulated the people who had lost their children and they all wanted to snatch Ye Zhen's child.
"Go away! Go away! " Zhao Yang was frightened by these people. She protected Ye Zhen tightly behind her and looked at the madmen in front of her with red eyes.
When the State Preceptor saw this scene, a smug smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Ye Yiqing and Ye Chundong kicked away the people in front of them and came to Ye Zhen's side. Ye Chundong said, "I'm going to catch the State Preceptor."
"Catching the State Preceptor is not the way." Ye Zhen looked at the State Preceptor who was smiling proudly. She raised her gun and fired a shot into the air.
Everyone was startled and their movements froze at the same time.
"I was sent by the Heavenly Concubine to save your king!" Ye Zhen said loudly. "Your king is sick. I can cure him. There is no need to use any child as a sacrifice. The Heavenly Concubine sent me to Baoxiang for this!"
No one could understand what she said. Everyone just looked at her.
Suddenly, a small voice sounded in the crowd. "Is what you said true?"
The one who spoke was a young woman. She covered her face, revealing only a pair of eyes that looked very young. She looked at Ye Zhen and asked in fluent Chinese, "Is what you said true?"
"Yes!" Ye Zhen nodded seriously. "Yes, I was sent by the Heavenly Concubine. The Heavenly Concubine doesn't want you to hurt innocent children again, so she asked me to cure your king."
The young woman took a deep look at Ye Zhen, then turned to the others and said a few words. Everyone else was stunned.
The State Preceptor probably heard the young woman's words. He said angrily, "Everyone, don't listen to this demoness. She can't cure the king. She is just stalling for time!"
Ye Yiqing translated his words to Ye Zhen.
The young woman looked at Ye Zhen hesitantly.
"Your children have been taken away by him, right?" Ye Zhen ignored the State Preceptor and looked at the young woman.
"The State Preceptor said that the King is sick. If the King's illness is not cured, our Baoxiang Kingdom will suffer a disaster. The King ordered all children who are less than three months old to be refined into medicine. In the past month, our children have been taken away. We don't know if they are still alive or dead." The young woman said, already crying.
"Is the King's life not important?" The State Preceptor asked coldly. "For the King, it is worth sacrificing your children!"
Ye Zhen said, "No, the Heavenly Concubine doesn't think it is worth it, so she asked me to save your Baoxiang Kingdom!"
"Don't listen to her nonsense! Kill her!" The State Preceptor said angrily.
"Wait!" A low voice interrupted the State Preceptor's words.
At some point, dozens of soldiers appeared behind the crowd. At the forefront was a man about 30 years old. Because of his appearance, the people around Ye Zhen automatically made way for him.
The man walked over step by step. He had a pair of sharp eyes like an eagle. "You said you can cure our King's illness?"
