From afar, faint human voices could be heard.
Yue Yang didn't have the time to sigh anymore. He ordered the Barbaric Cow Shadow to carry the demon's broken arm and disappeared into the darkness like a wisp of smoke. The Barbaric Cow Shadow carried the demon's arm, which was still covered in frost, and followed closely behind him. The moment he disappeared into the darkness, Yue Yang turned around and looked at the bright-eyed thief who was still lying unconscious on the ground.
A white figure, faster than lightning, streaked across the night sky and appeared on the battlefield.
It was a beauty dressed in palace attire. Her jade-like face was covered with a white veil, but the veil could not hide the snow-white skin underneath.
Her exceptionally clear eyes were filled with wisdom. Her long, curved eyelashes flashed with a pleasing liveliness.
When she saw the bright-eyed thief lying quietly on the ground, she immediately cried out in fear, "How did you end up like this when I just left for a while … Luckily, it's just mental exhaustion, it's not a big deal!" In the darkness, the voices got closer and countless footsteps could be heard from afar. The beauty's jet-black and smooth eyebrows furrowed slightly. She stretched out her white, lotus-like arm from her long sleeves and pointed with her slender jade-like finger, summoning a Gold Grimoire.
Following a flash of golden light, a little fairy with butterfly wings floated out and pounced onto the beauty's fragrant body.
In an instant, a huge pair of butterfly wings appeared behind the beauty's back.
The beautiful woman gently picked up the unconscious bright-eyed thief, and with a flap of her wings, she soared into the sky like a fairy descending from the Ninth Heaven, drifting away. When she was far away, Yue Yang, who had been holding his breath and quietly hiding in the darkness, slowly appeared. Before the messy footsteps could get closer, he turned around and walked in the opposite direction of the beauty. He quickly left, as agile as a fox, and blended into the darkness.
Just as Yue Yang left, a middle-aged man who was as mighty as a golden lion rushed to the battlefield with a gust of wind.
He saw that the main building of the Merry Forest had collapsed and was burning fiercely. He was so angry that he cried out.
The scene of the battle was a complete mess.
On the ground, there was a deep, terrible crack that had almost cut the ground within a hundred meters in half. Sparks of hellfire were still burning everywhere. Some of the corpses had been burnt to ashes, and some still had severed limbs and heads. Not a single person survived. Even the strongest guard captain took his last breath.
This mighty man who was like an angry lion could not help but roar at the sky, "How infuriating, how infuriating!"
Several martial artists arrived one after another. When they saw this scene, they were so scared that their legs went soft.
"What are you waiting for? I want to know who did this, and I want to know right now! " The lion-like man pulled out a thick golden saber from his back. He was so angry that he couldn't restrain himself from slashing at the ground, making the ground even more tattered.
"Master Golden Blade, there's a situation here …" A man who looked like a thief found something suspicious next to the guard captain.
"Xie Huo? Six Kings? " The middle-aged man, who looked like an angry lion, noticed that before the Guard Captain died, he had used his blood to write four blurry words on the stone beside him. Upon closer inspection, he could barely make out the words' Evil Fire, Six Kings'. After the Furious Lion Man, who was addressed as Master Golden Blade by his subordinates, finished reading, his expression changed greatly. Then, a burst of uncontrollable rage rose in his heart. He clenched his fists so tightly that they made cracking sounds. "No matter who it is, we must settle this debt with him!"
"There's an empty space with a Grimoire's protective shield. I think there's a lucky survivor who contracted a Grimoire here …" Another subordinate found something new.
"Find him and offer a large reward. We, the Merry Forest, will find out the truth even if we have to spend all our wealth! I will definitely not allow the devil's worshippers to move around in the Da Xia Empire. I will definitely not tolerate those damned scum using our citizens as a blood sacrifice! "The lion-like Master Golden Blade was so angry that his lungs almost exploded.
Yue Yang's courtyard.
The beautiful woman carried the little girl and was accompanied by a few servants. She knocked on the door with a panicked expression.
She did not care that Yue Yang was still wearing his nightgown. She hurriedly passed the little girl to him, "San-er, White Stone City is in chaos. Maybe the Black Mountain Bandits are attacking the city. Uncle Nan just went out to investigate. It's said that the west side of the city has already turned into a sea of fire. Hurry, hurry! " Yue Shuang was so scared that she cried. At first, she refused to leave her mother no matter what. When she saw Yue Yang, she jumped into his arms and complained. She cried pitifully, "Mommy hit me. Brother Xiao San, I didn't do anything wrong. Mommy also hit me … It hurts, wahhh!"
"Good Shuang-er, don't cry, don't cry!"
Looking at the beautiful woman's expression, Yue Yang knew that she had misunderstood.
She must have thought that White Stone City was being attacked by the Horse Bandits. In order to protect her precious daughter, she hurriedly came to find him. She wanted him to bring the little girl and escape before the Horse Bandits arrived.
What a good Fourth Mother!
She didn't even think about her own safety at all. She only cared about her son and daughter!
In Yue Yang's heart, a warm feeling rose and flowed through his body. In the end, it rushed to his throat and blocked his throat. He almost couldn't speak.
Yue Yang took a deep breath and suppressed the emotions in his heart. He patted the little girl's back lightly and comforted the beautiful woman, "Fourth Mother, don't be afraid. Don't say that there are no Horse Bandits. Even if there were really Horse Bandits, I will protect you and Shuang-er! Fourth Mother, believe me, there are no Horse Bandits. It was only the warriors of Kuai Huo Brothel fighting outside. I looked from the rooftop just now. Other than the fire being a little big and burning a few houses, there seems to be nothing else! "
"It really wasn't the Horse Bandits?" When the beautiful woman heard this, her expression immediately eased up, but she still had some doubts.
"Definitely not. The Horse Bandits of the Black Mountain are actually the White Stone City Master's private army. It is impossible for them to attack White Stone City!" Yue Yang explained patiently.
"You scared me to death just now!" The beautiful woman's heart was finally relieved. She was so scared that she patted her chest lightly. She was so scared that she urgently needed to calm down her beating heart. When the maids and servants behind heard Yue Yang say that it wasn't the Horse Bandits attacking the city, they all cheered. They rejoiced that a disaster had been resolved and everyone's lives were safe.
Within the borders of the Da Xia Kingdom, there were many mountains and dangerous places. The Horse Bandits occupied the valleys in the wilderness and pillaged the surrounding villages.
Because the country's power was weak, the local governance was weak, and with the support from outside the country and the activities of spies, some of the city masters and lords colluded with the bandits, the Da Xia Horse Bandits were famous for being ferocious. The country repeatedly tried to exterminate them, but instead, they became more and more ferocious. Other than the towns that were protected by the city walls, it was very normal for the villages to be massacred if they didn't pay the Horse Bandits to protect their lives. There were often notorious and abnormally strong bandit groups that successfully attacked some small towns and occupied the area for a month or two. They would only leave when the country's army arrived.
When the Horse Bandits attacked the city, the usual practice was to massacre the city for one day and indulge in debauchery for three days.
Anyone who was not pleasing to the eye would be beheaded in public. As for the beautiful young women, most of them would be snatched by the Horse Bandits for debauchery or even sold as slaves or prostitutes.
Therefore, all the women of the big clans had a Chastity Pill. In order to protect their reputation and chastity, the women of the big clans would swallow the Chastity Pill and commit suicide to ensure that they wouldn't be defiled by the bandits.
In the small pouch in the beautiful woman's arms, there was such a green poison pill. Yue Yang was afraid that she would do something stupid, so he quickly said that there were no Horse Bandits attacking the city.
After Yue Yang's repeated assurances, the beautiful woman felt more at ease.
The beautiful woman hugged the little girl who had cried herself to sleep and sat in Yue Yang's room for the whole night. Only when the old servant, Uncle Nan, went out again and again to gather information and confirm that there were no Horse Bandits attacking the city, did she go back to rest when it was almost dawn. After such a scare, the beautiful woman couldn't sleep well for the next few days. Sometimes, she would be absent-minded during the day, always worried that the Horse Bandits would come.
Although she didn't say it out loud, Yue Yang could tell that Fourth Mother had been traumatized by the scare.
When Yue Yang saw her slightly thinner face, he secretly made a decision.
The next day, the old servant, Uncle Nan, ran over excitedly to report, "Madam, Young Master, there's a piece of great news. The horse bandits on the Black Mountain had angered an unknown expert, and they were annihilated overnight. Not a single one was spared …"
As expected, the beautiful woman's heart was healed without any medicine. Her jade-like face also regained its usual smile.
The White Stone City Master was naturally furious, but he couldn't say it out loud. Moreover, he couldn't find the exact culprit for revenge.
If Black Clothed Yue Bing was still practicing summoning skills with Yue Yang at home, she would discover that his Thorny Flower had already become a Silver-ranked Level 1 'Wraiths Face Spitting Thorny Flower'.
Although there weren't any outstanding warriors among the Black Mountain Horse Bandits, they had the advantage in numbers. After the Spitting Thorny Flower had continuously swallowed nearly a hundred people, it successfully evolved from Bronze-ranked Level 1 to Silver-ranked Level 1. Yue Yang felt that it was a pity that there weren't any Level 3 Heroes among the Black Mountain Horse Bandits. Otherwise, the Thorny Flower would have no problem becoming a Gold-ranked Thorny Flower.
After swallowing a hundred people, the Thorny Flower was actually not far from becoming a Gold-ranked Thorny Flower.
Yue Yang practiced every day, and his days gradually returned to normal.
After another three days, the beautiful woman carried the little girl and happily walked into the courtyard where Yue Yang was practicing. She waved the letter in her hand and said happily, "San-er, Bing Er sent a letter back. I was worried that the matter at Merry Forest would affect the letter. I didn't expect that I would receive a letter from Bing Er in advance today!"
She happily opened the snow-white letter and started reading it.
Who would have thought that after reading it, her smile would immediately disappear and her face would be filled with worry?
"What's wrong? Did something happen to Seventh Sister? "Yue Yang was shocked. Could it be that Yue Bing had also met with danger when she went to the first floor of Tong Tian Tower to train? He hurriedly put down the little girl who had jumped into his embrace and acted like a spoiled child, "Fourth Mother, how about I go and fetch Little Sister Bing Er back?"
