Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“We just have to work hard. It’s good enough that we have a place to stay. There’s really no need to do this.”

Aunt Liu also knew that she wouldn’t be able to persuade MO Ruyue. Besides, she had good intentions. It wasn’t right to keep rejecting her.

“I say, you should put your heart back into your stomach. Go and take a look. The babies’ rooms are the same. I like to pamper you all. I can’t not want you

MO Ruyue said in a deliberately overbearing manner.

The old couple was used to being frugal, so they were not used to living in such luxury.

However, habits could also be cultivated. Wouldn’t they get used to it after living here for a while?

She sensed a gaze on her, so she looked up and met Da Bao’s scrutinizing gaze.

There was no sun in the space, but it would still change according to the pattern of 24 hours a day.

A few hours later, it was almost time for the babies to go to bed. MO Ruyue urged them to go to bed early.

“Mother, can’t we sleep late today?” San Bao tried to probe.

“You guys should rest for the next two days. You were too tired from the journey. After you’ve recovered, we’ll have a good Lantern Festival and let you guys relax for another day.”

MO Ruyue was prepared to sneak away while they were asleep. How could she agree to his request?

Saving people was like putting out a fire, and time was the most precious.

“Mother, the Lantern Festival has already passed…” San Bao said in a low voice. MO Ruyue was stunned. Only then did she remember that they had been on the road for three days. Along the way, they had tried to stay as far away from the town as possible and had not noticed that they had missed the Lantern Festival.

“It doesn’t matter. When you’re done resting, Mother will give you an even more special holiday. Although it’s only for the few of us, it’ll definitely be the most unforgettable one.”

MO Ruyue immediately promised.

Before she was ready to leave, she had spent a lot of money to buy a lot of fireworks and firecrackers, as well as to put up a stock of lanterns. She was afraid that she would miss the Lantern Festival.

Now, it really came in handy.

“Alright, then let’s go to sleep.”

Although San Bao’s request had been rejected, he did not appear to be dejected. On the contrary, he was filled with anticipation.

When MO Ruyue finally coaxed them to sleep and quietly walked out of the main house, another hour had passed.

Gu Ying was waiting for her in the yard, with a few giant wolves lying beside him. The yard door was not closed.

“Let’s go, Ying.”

MO Ruyue walked over with a huge medicine box on her back. She then handed one to Gu Ying.

This was an upgrade of her original first aid kit. Its capacity was larger than before, and it could hold more medical equipment and medicine.

Even so, MO Ruyue knew that in the face of such a natural disaster, everything was like a cup of water on a burning cart of firewood. However, she was willing to try her best.

“Bing ‘Er, aren’t you worried about what will happen to the babies after they wake up?”

Gu Ying looked at the few rooms that had already turned off the lights. He believed that Bing ‘Er had already noticed that her eldest son, Da Bao, had already woken up and was looking at them.

“If he really wanted to stop us, he would have already come out. Let’s go.”

After MO Ruyue finished speaking, she quickly walked out. She was afraid that if she turned around, she would stay.

Gu Ying followed her silently, and behind him, the slightly open window closed quietly.

After leaving the courtyard for some distance, the two stopped and checked their equipment again.

In order to make it easier to save people, in addition to a large medicine box, they also brought the necessary small lifting tools, oxygen tanks, and simple gas masks.

As for the clean water and food, they could be temporarily stored in the medium and used at any time.

After the inspection, the two of them disappeared from where they were and returned to the real world.

It was already late at night outside, but the flames in the distance burned half the sky red, allowing the two to easily see the changes in their surroundings.

The trees around them had all fallen, burned into pieces of black charcoal, and were still emitting smoke.

“If the situation here is so tragic, then the county…”

MO Ruyue couldn’t finish her sentence. Now that she had the babies’ company, she was no longer the assassin who regarded human lives as worthless, and her heart was a little softer and warmer.

In the face of such a natural disaster, no one could stay out of it and remain unmoved after seeing such a tragic scene.

The two of them then released two big black horses and galloped to the nearest town.

The small city was considered lucky as not a single meteorite fell. However, the sparks from the friction of the meteorite’s fall still caused several fires in the city. The entire city was gathered to put out the fire.

“Ying, we’re still heading south. The disaster here isn’t serious. We’ll set off after you purify the water.”

MO Ruyue quickly made a decision. While Gu Ying was purifying the water, she would also try to treat the people in her hands as easily as possible.

The two of them split up. After about two hours, they quietly left the city and headed to their next destination.

Just like that, they saved people along the way. When night fell again, they had only walked 50 miles.

“Bing ‘Er, at this speed, we don’t know how long it will be before we reach the county.”

Gu Ying was worthy of being the person who understood MO Ruyue the most. He knew very well that what she wanted to know the most now was news about Imperial Doctor Tian and the others.

They would definitely not stay in the county and would listen to her all the way north. Perhaps they would meet on the way if fate brought them together.

“Let’s just wait and see. We’ll save as many as we can. This is the only reason we can get those two treasures.”

MO Ruyue sighed. No matter how worried she was, she had to fulfill the oath she made that day.

In front of that mysterious person, she had promised that she would do her best to save them.

After that, the two of them continued to save people as they walked. However, as they went further south, the time they stopped for gradually increased.

Many cities and villages here had been struck by the disaster. Some villages had even been wiped out. No one had survived. Even their corpses had turned to dust, and there was no way to find them.

During this period, MO Ruyue had returned to the interspace once. However, she had deliberately chosen to return at night when the babies were already asleep.

She knew that her sudden departure would definitely make the babies angry, and she also knew that they would understand her.

That was why she felt even more guilty. Before she completed her mission of saving the people, she felt that she could not walk to her babies and say, “I’m back,

When he returned to the medium this time, MO Ruyue prepared a new batch of medicinal herbs and food. The previous ones had already been used up, and there was nothing left.

Just as MO Ruyue was about to leave, a light suddenly lit up in the distant courtyard. From this side, it should be Da Bao’s room.

Could it be that he had telepathy and knew that she had returned?

The yard was quiet. The wolves were now living in the yard and would not make any noise without her summoning.

Even though she was so far away, he could still sense that she had returned.

This kind of tacit understanding made MO Ruyue feel that it was incredible..
