Chapter 132 Little Baby, Don’t Be Afraid

“Lord, the people of the Lin Li Building are here.”

A subordinate reported when Yan Shixun and his daughter were looking at each other in consternation.

Yan Shixun immediately came to himself and then ordered with a solemn look, “Hongxiu! Stay here. I will trust you with an important task. The Satrap’s Mansion will be very weak after we leave. Use the bow in your hand to protect the Satrap’s Mansion and your mother. Can you do that?”

Her father assigned an important task to her for the first time. Seeing his solemn look, Yan Hongxiu immediately felt an overwhelming sense of responsibility. She nodded with heartfelt delight and said, “Father, rest assured. Even a mosquito cannot fly into the Satrap’s Mansion!”

“Good! This’s my girl!”

Yan Shixun praised her. Then he immediately ordered someone to take Hongxiu to make arrangements.

Seeing his father successfully coax his sister with just a few words, Yan Ziye was at a loss whether to cry or to laugh. His father still did not forget to tantalize his sister at such a time. It really was…

“Did you think I was joking?”

Yan Ziye’s look changed when he heard such serious words. He raised his head in confusion and asked, “Wasn’t it?”

Yan Shixun lightly sighed with a complicated look and said, “The agreement on the bow is impossible to be fulfilled. However, she makes the impossible possible after meeting Ms. Li. As it is, how can I stop her? I will persuade her mother.”

Yan Ziye got goose bumps after hearing that. He could not help but blurt out in excitement, “Then father, I…”

Yan Shixun smiled with a mysterious look and said, “As for you… If we can safely get through this difficulty, I will not stop you anymore. Nevertheless, my Xuangong is a taboo. If you want to make progress in the cultivation, you should go to the Linli Building…”

“Thank you!”

Yan Ziye immediately kneeled down and kowtowed to his father for three times in a row.

Yan Shixun shook his head after seeing that. He did not know whether he was doing the right thing. He had vowed that he would never set foot in the martial arts circle once more. However, both his son and daughter wanted to practice martial arts.

At the gate of the Satrap’s Mansion, Luo Yichen stood among a group of picked troops and quietly waited for Yan Shixun. He looked around with bright eyes and found that he was familiar with many of them. Half a year ago, he was chased like a rat running for its life.

“Ha-ha, you must be the Fourth Protector, Protector Chen, recommended by Ms. Li. You are truly a young hero!”

Luo Yichen raised his head when he heard the sudden laughter. He instantly saw Yan Shixun, who wore a broad smile in casual clothes, come over from the door.

Yan Shixun was amiable. He felt that the breath of Luo Yichen was extremely dangerous. Although he also was at the peak of the acquired realm, he didn’t share the same level with Luo Yichen.

In other words, even if he ran out of his potential, he would still be stuck at the peak of the acquired realm and couldn’t make a progress in this life. But the cold youth in front of him had already reached the critical point of the peak of the acquired realm. It seemed that he could easily step into the inborn realm just by making a little improvement.

“It is so scary that even the Fourth Protector of the Linli Building has such a high cultivation. Then how many Young Masters are there in the Linli Building?”

Yan Shixun was deeply shocked and couldn’t help but think in this way. But he didn’t know that Luo Yichen was the most remarkable man in the Linli Building only secondary to Su Li.

Luo Yichen didn’t know whether to laugh or cry after being praised by Yan Shixun. If he saw Yan Shixun two months ago, he would immediately run away. At present, he didn’t feel nervous at all. He gave a fist and palm salute to Yan Shixun and just said, “You flatter me.”

Yan Shixun let out a sigh of relief and asked him to wait for a while when seeing that Luo Yichen was ineloquent and easy to get along with. He called together all picked troops. Then hundreds of them marched forward to the ruined temple outside the town.

In a very short time, the sky darkened.

At the gate of the town, Su Li slowly left the Qinghe Town in a carriage. Seeing Su Li leave in the carriage, Wen Ruomin clenched her hands with sweat oozing down unstoppably from her palms.

“Stay safe!”

Su Li looked calm. She lowered her head and touched the amulet on her chest. Wen Ruomin gave it to her again after she gave it back.

Luo Yichen was waiting outside the gate of the town. Seeing the carriage, he instantly felt refreshed.

“Finally here!”

He left Yan Shixun and his troops halfway. He familiarized himself with the environment from the ruined temple to the gate of the Qinghe Town first. Then he hid himself in the weeds near the official road and silently waited for the female lecturer.

After all, his task was different from that of the feudal official. He was entrusted to protect the female lecturer from harm.

The carriage slowly approached Luo Yichen. He looked strained and was about to follow it secretly. But he was dumbfounded and immediately stopped his movement when he saw clearly the girl who was driving the carriage. Then he became deeply dumbfounded and speechless.

Damn it… It was actually Li!

Su Li was in the carriage. In this case, why should he be here? He had squatted here for such a long time like an idiot.

“Don’t screw it up. I am the lecturer of the Girls’ School to be protected.”

At this time, Su Li’s voice rang in his ears. Luo Yichen was slightly dumfounded and his eyes flickered. He immediately followed up without too much consideration.

The ruined temple was built on the mountain. The mountain road was so rugged that Su Li had to give up driving the carriage and walk to the temple.

The forest was casting shadows all over. In the dark of night, soberness and terror were beyond expression.

Su Li looked scared. Seeing this, Luo Yichen, who was following her in secret, felt increasingly speechless. Such acting skill… It was in fact scarier than his cultivation. He would not have believed that the delicate girl in front of him was a moody devil if he had not known the other identity of Su Li in the first place.

It was nearly the period of the day from 11 p.m. to 1 a.m. Su Li finally arrived at the ruined temple after experiencing a pretended trudge.

Squeak—

Su Li made a harsh sound. The picked troops who were hiding near the ruined temple were deeply startled by it. However, there weren’t anyone. Even beggars who usually stayed here couldn’t be found when she opened the door.

Although Su Li knew that no one was here, she walked in with a worried look and kept looking over the place. Except seniors beyond the inborn realm, she would certainly know whether someone was there.

When Su Li walked into the ruined temple, she saw a piece of strange bright red paper on the ground. It was quite eye-catching. She immediately walked to it and picked it up.

“You are truly a smart and brave girl. Seeing the paper means that you have filial piety to some extent. But if you want to save your family members, you need to walk out of the ruined temple and ride a horse at the foot of the mountain in the north of the temple as fast as possible to meet me. Remember: Don’t talk to anyone else. If you dare to speak, wait to bury your father. The law of the Dahan Country has no consideration for anyone’s feelings…”

Then Su Li blinked. She immediately ran to the northern mountain and actually found a horse tied to a tree. This horse was so fine. It could be seen at the first glance that it ran extremely fast.

Su Li rode the horse without hesitation. The horse seemed to be controlled by drugs. As soon as Su Li sat on it, it began to run wildly and instantly disappeared in the forest.

“Damn it!”

Yan Shixun’s face greatly changed when he came over and saw Su Li disappear in an instant. At this moment, Yan Ziye hurriedly ran to his father with the red paper in his hand and said, “Father, look!”

After seeing it, Yan Shixun felt both angry and helpless. He said, “This silly girl! She was seeking her death in vain. She can’t save her father’s life at all!”

He originally intended to arrest Wu Yun this time. Although it was inevitable to face the threat of the Gong Family in the future, he still could solve this crisis in any case. But Wu Yun’s cunning and malevolence were far beyond his calculation.

“By the way, where is that Protector Chen?”

Yan Shixun suddenly thought of him. He turned back and looked round. He found that the place was so quiet. No one could be here. After seeing this, he couldn’t help but become optimistic. “Protector Chen, our victory is up to you this time…” he thought.

Luo Yichen ran after Su Li without saying a word according to the marks that Su Li made passingly. He cursed the running horse in his heart. Was it seeking death? It had run wildly for an hour. Even he couldn’t bear it, not to mention a common horse.

At first, he didn’t want to follow Su Li. If she couldn’t win the fight, it would be meaningless for him to do anything. But Su Li transmitted the sound in silence before she went. She told him to follow her in secret and not to do anything. He could only eat the ash caused by the horse.

Su Li sat on the horse. The scenes around her changed rapidly and ceaselessly. Meanwhile, she could obviously feel the breath of the horse she rode was weakening.

“Such means… I have never thought Wu Yun has connections with those rats.”

Su Li got interested in this. But she instantly turned pale and panicky as before.

“The horse is about to die. I will reach the destination pretty soon unless something unexpected happens.”

“Wheezing, wheezing…”

The horse violently gasped and its speed became slower and slower. Luo Yichen could hear it from afar. He was instantly alarmed and slowed down. After watering his entire body with pond water in the mountain to cover the smell of the sweat, he followed up secretly.

“Splash!”

The horse fell down on the ground due to lack of strengthen. Su Li was also abruptly tossed out to the log cabin near a creek. The grit on the ground made her arms bleeding.

Su Li lowered her head and screamed because of the pain. When she heard a wooden door squeaking, she instantly stared at it with a scared look. She looked like a panicked rabbit.

Squeak—

A short old man in a gray robe slowly walked out. His cloudy eyes had green light. They weren’t like those of a man. When he measured Su Li with his eyes, he seemed to see delicious food in front of him. He said, “Yum-yum. You are certainly a good kid. I know you must taste both tender and delicious.”

The short old man in a gray robe gloomily laughed showing a mouthful of yellow teeth. Then Su Li saw him take out something which looked like black plaster from his robe. He said impatiently,

“Well done. The amount of the poison is enough to poison all the people of the Satrap’s Mansion. I can hardly wait to enjoy my sacrificial offerings. Go away immediately!”

Wu Yun exulted after hearing the words. She took over the poison reverently and said with fear in her eyes, “Then I will go, master.”

She carefully put away the poison and glanced at Su Li delightedly after saying that. Then she left at night directly. She didn’t want to stay here for another second.

Only Su Li was left with him. The old man in a gray robe became even more excited. He delightfully took a bottle of the Cartilage Powder from room when he saw Su Li kneel down on the ground like a lamb waiting for an inevitable death. At the same time, he rolled up his sleeves. Cold claw blades were seen instead of hands.

“Uh-huh, uh-huh… Little baby, don’t be afraid.”

The old man in a gray robe hummed a song and came to Su Li. He opened Su Li’s mouth with his right hand and poured the Cartilage Powder into her mouth. Seeing Su Li eat the Cartilage Powder, he felt completely relaxed. He was about to cut Su Li’s neck skin with the left cold claw blades.

At this moment, a cold dagger flashed and cut through his throat in a moment! Su Li still looked scared. There wasn’t a hint of murderous look.

The old man in a gray robe was deeply shocked. He wanted to pull out the dagger in his neck with trembling hands. But he didn’t dare to do it. A strange sound spread from his throat and his eyes were full of doubts.

He was set up by a delicate girl unexpectedly.

He raised his head and saw Su Li, who looked very calm, quickly take out a dagger from nowhere and directly stab it into his heart.

“That’s the dirty trick of the Lianshi Cult. Although you might not hurt me, I should be on alert.”

Su Li spat out the Cartilage Powder in her mouth and sneered,

“How can you know that I…”

The old man in a gray robe died with widened eyes before he could finish the words. Su Li pulled out the dagger in his body. She stared for a moment when she saw dark red blood mixed with sixty percent of grey blood flowing out from his body.

Su Li had never thought that he had such a high cultivation. In the Lianshi Cult, the old man might be in the inborn seventh hurdle. However, since he dropped his guard in front of Su Li, he didn’t demonstrate even one hundredth of his strengthen and died for nothing.

“Clatter!”

Luo Yichen sprang from the woods with dirty water all over his body. He felt both relaxed and discouraged when he saw the dead body of the old man in a gray robe. As expected, he couldn’t have the opportunity to do anything if Su Li was on the scene. Fortunately, he could still demonstrate his strength with what in his hand.

Luo Yichen thought when he looked at Wu Yun who was insensible in his hand.
