Chapter 79

Chapter 79: Why aren’t you worried about whether I’m injured or not?

“You’re awake.”

In a daze, Ming opened his eyes and saw Yanhan sitting by his bedside.

“Where are we?”

Ming tried to sit up but as soon as he moved, he felt like his whole body was being torn apart, the pain unbearable.

“Don’t move around so much. You’re severely injured; it’s already a miracle that you’re alive,” Yanhan said slowly, “This is the government office of Xinping County.”

“How many days have I been unconscious?” Ming asked.

Nearby a small village of Xinping County.

“Xuenuo has come, indeed it’s been a long time since we’ve seen her. Is she still here?” Upon hearing this name, Ming also felt a sense of nostalgia, as they hadn’t seen each other for several years.

Since Yin was one of the parties involved in this incident and was the least injured,

Ming nodded, “How was that fake Liu大人 discovered?”

“Kid, where are your parents?”

As they walked, Yin noticed a bench in front of a courtyard, with an embroidery beside it. The needlework on the embroidery wasn’t broken yet.

“Who are you! What are you doing here!” The little girl asked with red eyes.

Looking at the little girl, Yin was reminded of himself from a few years ago.

The Wudou Sect came to investigate and preliminarily determined that the fake Liu大人 and Sheng were accomplices. There was no trace of the souls of the people who died around Xinping County.

“It’s only been a few years, and you’ve already forgotten your own sister.

“Are Xiong Haizhi and the others still alive?”

A few years ago, there was only him left, wandering aimlessly without knowing where he was going.

Although Yin might not be very useful and couldn’t help much, at least he showed respect to this small team of Blood Floating Pagoda, mainly emphasizing “I will give you an explanation, I won’t let you get hurt for nothing.”

However, fourteen-year-old Yin squatted down like an older brother and extended his hand to the little girl.

The souls of these people may likely be used for some unknown rituals, and what exactly they are is still under investigation.

In short, our mission is already completed, and as for other matters, they are none of our business.

“Never mind.” Ming shook his head, “I won’t disturb her cultivation. She needs to reduce her karmic ties with the Xu Mansion now. If I go over there and delay her cultivation, then I wouldn’t be a qualified younger brother.”

But Yanhan thought about it and decided against it.

Cultivators and martial artists sent by the court are investigating the attacked villages, while the soldiers of Xinping County are handling the bodies according to instructions, ensuring the dead rest in peace.

Otherwise, given my condition, if I didn’t guard against that Liu大人 and considering that he was an accomplice of Sheng, it would be too easy for him to secretly kill all five of us.

“I’m sorry, we arrived too late”

“No!” Yanhan stood up, kicked Ming’s bed, and turned to walk out of the room, “She didn’t either!”

“Many things happened while you were unconscious.”

So naturally, Yin also came along.

“My parents were eaten by monster beasts, I ran away alone… wailing… I ran away alone, only I am left, only I am left…”

This was a little girl with braids, shorter than him by a head, looking only eleven years old.

Your sister, Xu Snow of the Xu Mansion, has also come to Xinping County and killed that fake Liu大人.

People from Wudou will handle it.”

Everyone leaves behind some traces of their soul when they die.

“So Yin naturally followed along too.

“Both my parents were eaten by monster beasts two years ago… I am alone… everyone in the village is dead…”

Walking into the courtyard, just as Yin pushed open the door, a kitchen knife swung toward him.

This was a harmonious village.

“Lady, who are you? What are you doing here?” Yin asked

“Let me go! Let me go!”

Until a man found out that both of my parents were gone, he told me to go to the Wu Kingdom military camp and join the Blood Floating Pagoda.

Yin dodged sideways, slapped the attacker’s hand upwards to knock off the kitchen knife, then grabbed the person’s wrist smoothly.

“Everything has been destroyed now…”

Entering this courtyard, as Yin pushed open the door, he immediately saw a kitchen knife swinging towards him.

In Yin’s mind, he imagined a scene of a woman sitting by the courtyard gate embroidering while waiting for her family to return.

We saw that Liu大人, he was impersonated.

Even though I don’t want to admit it, Xuenuo did indirectly save our group once.

Yanhan explained the events that occurred during this period to Ming.

“Was she injured?” Ming asked, “Killing that Liu大人 must not have been easy, right?”

Yanhan sneered, “I carried you for such a long distance, why aren’t you worried about whether I’m injured?”

“Not around anymore, your sister has returned to the sect. If you want to see her, you can only go to the Ten Thousand Sword Sect, but it’s not too far from here.”

“This is unclear, ask your sister,” Yanhan coldly said, “Your sister does have some skills.”

Speaking of which, tears uncontrollably streamed down the little girl’s face, as if she had lost all her strength and collapsed onto the ground.

“My sister? What sister do I have?” Ming was momentarily stunned.

“But if you don’t mind, would you like to come with me? I am also alone. My parents were killed by monster beasts two years ago.

Though we are all alone,

One person plus another person makes two.”

“Then that’s good,” Ming finally relaxed completely.

Ming was momentarily stunned and smiled, “Brother, are you injured?”

“Relax, we’re still alive, no one died. This mission could be considered relatively successful.”
