Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
In the past, Yu Niaoniao would definitely feel a little uncomfortable when she saw the arrow she shot kill a living person.
But now, looking at the Chen Nation soldier lying in a pool of blood, her heart was as calm as water. She was terrifyingly calm the entire time. Because she understood something—
Not everyone in this world was worthy of being a person.
At this moment, she was not killing a person, but an animal.
She didn’t need to feel any guilt.
Yu Niaoniao shot a few more arrows.
Every arrow could accurately take a life.
When the last person from the Chen Nation who tried to escape was also shot and fell, Yu Niaoniao finally put down her bow.
She turned around and wanted to say something to Xiao Juan, but she saw the other three looking at her strangely.
She was puzzled. “Why are you looking at me like that?”
Her archery was personally taught by Xiao Juan. Seeing her calmly shoot the enemy just now made his heart ache. He was gratified by her growth and his heart soared for her.
Lo Pingsha, Meng Xizhou, and Xia Haisheng were sincerely impressed.
This was especially the case for Xia Haisheng. The admiration in his eyes was about to overflow.
The Princess Consort’s archery was too powerful!
Every arrow she shot just now seemed to have hit his heart. It was ridiculously dashing!
Xiao Juan said without changing his expression, “Nothing. Let’s go.”
With that, he stood up and strode towards the Li family village.
Yu Niaoniao and the other three quickly followed.
Yu Niaoniao was a little worried that her actions would cause trouble for everyone. As she walked, she said, “I was a little impulsive just now.”
Although she said that, she had no intention of regretting it. Even if it happened again, she would still do it.
Xiao Juan said, “Even if you didn’t attack just now, I would have.”
Meng Xizhou, Lo Pingsha, and Xia Haisheng said right on the heels of that,
“The same goes for us!”
They wanted to keep a low profile and travel, but this did not mean that they had to lose their conscience.
In tnat situation just now, It was Impossible tor anyone witn tne guts to Sit back and do nothing.
Hearing this, the worry in Yu Niaoniao’s heart immediately dissipated.
She was even a little touched.
Back then, when she was in the Imperial Capital, she desperately wanted to seek justice for her family who had died tragically, but no one was willing to support her. Everyone thought that she was crazy and that the entire world was standing against her.
Now, in order to save two strangers, she had rashly shot the Chen Nation’s soldiers. This nosy behavior received the unconditional support of her companions.
Comparing the two, only she knew the difference.
The five of them arrived at the village entrance.
The little girl almost scrambled to her father’s side.
Father and daughter hugged each other and cried until they were out of breath.
When they saw someone coming, they thought that it was the Chen Nation again and hurriedly got up to escape.
Xia Haisheng hurriedly stopped them and communicated with them in the local dialect of Liaodong County.
“Don’t be afraid, it’s me! I’m Xia Haisheng from the Xia family village. We came to your village not long ago. We shot the arrows just now. We’re here to save you.”
Hearing this, the father and daughter stopped.
They saw Xia Haisheng’s appearance clearly and confirmed that he was a friend and not an enemy. Only then did they lower their guard.
The man’s ear was still bleeding.
Lo Pingsha took gauze and medicine from his bag and simply treated his wound.
The cries in the Li family village had yet to stop; the wails were mixed with the excited laughter of the Chen Nation. Xia Haisheng said to the father and daughter.
“Leave quickly.”
The man did not leave. Instead, he asked hopefully, “You just said that you’re here to save us. Are you planning to save the entire village?
Xia Haisheng did not dare to make this decision. He turned to look at Xiao Juan.
Xiao Juan gave an affirmative answer without hesitation. “Yes.”
Since he had already made a move, he might as well save them all.
The man was at first delighted, then worried.
“There are more than a hundred people from the Chen Nation, but there are only five of you. Can you defeat them?”
Xiao Juan said, “I have my ways.”
The man seemed to have thought of something. He gritted his teeth and made up his mind to speak to his daughter.
“Go into the mountains and find a place to hide. I’ll help them save the people.” Xia Haisheng was surprised. “Aren’t you leaving?”
The man choked. “My father, mother, and my wife are in the village. I can’t leave them alone. I have to go back and save them.”
He had no choice just now. He could not save the entire family alone. He could only escape with his daughter.
But now that someone was willing to help save him, he naturally had to do something.
Although the little girl was trembling and disheveled, she was still thinking about her grandparents and mother.
She knew that she could not help much. If she followed, she would only be a burden. She could only suppress the fear in her heart and say in a trembling voice, “Father, you have to be careful.”
Yu Niaoniao bent down and took off the scimitar from the waist of a Chen Nation citizen.
She handed the scimitar to the little girl.
“Take it for self-defense.”
The little girl took the heavy scimitar with both hands and choked. “Thank you,
Sister.”
After the little girl left, the man introduced himself briefly.
His name was Li Deyi. He was an ordinary farmer and would enter the mountains to hunt when he was free. At this moment, he was carrying a
homemade bow, but his quiver was empty.
Previously, in order to escape, he had used all his arrows.
Yu Niaoniao looked at the corpses of the Chen Nation people on the ground and said ambiguously, “No more, no less. There are exactly six of them. Could this be fate?”
There were originally five of them. Now that Li Deyi was included, there were exactly six.
Xiao Juan said, “It’s indeed fate.”
Even the heavens were helping them. It was obvious that their operation would definitely go smoothly.
The six of them quickly took off all the clothes on the Chen Nation’s soldiers and replaced them with their own. Then, they hid the corpses in the bushes.
Among them, only Xiao Juan could speak some simple Chen Nation language.
Hence, Xiao Juan led the way and ran into the village with the other five.
Xiao Juan pretended to be flustered and shouted in the Chen Nation language. “The Eastern Expedition Army is here! They’re about to kill their way in. Run!”
His shout immediately shocked the Chen Nation soldiers who were still doing evil. A few of them did not even have time to pull up their pants before they hurriedly ran out of the house.
After the Chen Nation’s people plundered the village, it had already become a mess.
Corpses lying in pools of blood could be seen everyvvhere.
Even though Yu Niaoniao was already mentally prepared, she could not help but feel shocked.
Li Deyi’s eyes turned red as he clenched his fists. The veins on the back of his hand bulged. He had to do his best to suppress the urge to kill.
Soon, all the Chen Nation soldiers ran out, led by a young general.
This young general must have drunk some wine. His face was red and he was not dressed properly.
He shouted at the top of his voice, “Who said the Eastern Expedition Army was here? Where is the Eastern Expedition Army?”
Xiao Juan walked forward. “I was the one who saw the Eastern Expedition
Army. ”
The general’s mind was not clear at this moment. Although he looked at the unfamiliar person in front of him, he did not think too much about it. After all, the other party was speaking the authentic Chen Nation language. He was clearly from the Chen Nation.
“Come here and tell me what happened in detail.”
Xiao Juan walked up to him and lowered his voice. “It’s like this. I happened to encounter two soldiers from the Eastern Expedition Army just now. They said…
The general was dissatisfied. “What did they say? Speak up!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Juan suddenly unsheathed the No Return Saber in his hand.
Before anyone could react, the blade had already cut the general’s throat.
Xiao Juan said coldly, “They said that your death is imminent..”
