Yu Dong pursed her lips. She did not kill this woman yesterday because she did not want to cause trouble for herself and the village. But it looked like even if she did not want to bother with these women they were not going to let her off so easily. Yu Dong turned her head to look at Lu Huo who was still trembling and seemed to have realized that these women deliberately kidnapped Lu Huo this time.
All because they wanted to warn her! As she climbed up the narrow slope, Yu Dong could see the mercenary group was not as small as she thought, in fact, it was even bigger than she expected. No wonder the leader of this group was fearless, she had so many women to back her up!
Seeing this Yu Dong could not help but furrow her brows for some reason she felt like Lu Huo's mother's intentions to send these mercenaries here were not simple. If she wanted to just steal the key, she could have done it by sending a single shadow guard who was specially trained to do such tasks.
But instead, she sent these mercenaries to the village in a loud and obnoxious manner. What eerie intentions was that woman hiding?
She was lost in her thoughts when something zapped past her and hit her on the shin, startled Yu Dong looked at the tiny dagger before pulling it out and throwing it back to the leader. Her spiritual energy cleansed the poison that was rubbed on the blade of the dagger that was sent her way.
That woman! She surely was not a simple mercenary!
On the other hand, because of the mercenaries, Master Yuan rushed to meet Magistrate Li but he was not able to get a firm response in regards to where his wife was at the moment. He could only rub his forehead and ask Magistrate Li to bring him the information regarding the mercenaries who were lurking around the Big River Village for the time being.
" I have already sent someone to keep an eye on those mercenaries," stated Magistrate Li with a frown on her face. " They are not from the village. And from what my women tell me, those mercenaries are very protective of their leader, they don't allow anyone to get close to the leader."
Master Yuan knew that the mercenaries sent to the village were not simple. He had noticed the footwork of those mercenaries and he could see that they were specially trained, it could only mean that they were retired soldiers or army raised by someone personally.
" We really underestimated, Princess Xieren," he sneered coldly. " She had been preparing for this day for a long time." Though he did not wish to admit it, he had to hand it to Xuan Xieren. If not for the fact that she was a tyrant and a heartless woman who was paranoid and dangerous, she could have been the perfect Empress.
Though Master Yuan had a lot to say he knew that this was neither the time nor place. He looked at Magistrate Li and then stated, " Leave a message for Lin Nanzhi. Tell her that she needs to pay attention to the surroundings for the time being and if you find any information regarding my wife make sure to send it to me as soon as possible."
Though he knew that his wife was not dead, Master Yuan could not help but worry. Keep the adventure going on freewebnovel
" Yes, vice general."
" There is no need to call me vice general," Master Yuan smiled as he looked at Li Wan. " I am no longer the vice general. There is another one appointed as the vice general already."
Li Wan smiled and then shook her head before stating, " In my heart, only someone like Master Yuan can be the vice general."
Master Yuan did not say anything, he returned to the village. At dawn, the criminals ruled the world. If he was to stay out late then he wouldn't be able to help the Yu family.
On the other hand, Yu Dong returned to the house. Her brows were still tightly furrowed, she wanted to get to the bottom of the matter but no matter how much she thought, she could not understand the reasoning of Lu Huo's mother.
" Dong Dong, come with me," Ye Liu who had returned after calming Lu Huo, glared at Yu Dong as soon as he stepped inside the living room, seeing Ye Liu angry no one dared to say anything and simply looked at Yu Dong.
What did Yu Dong do to make Ye Liu angry? At this moment even Yu Dong wanted to ask what she did but Ye Liu did not give her the chance to say anything.
He pulled her to his room and said, "Take off your pants."
" Woah, I did say that I will make you pregnant but there is no need for you to be in a hurry right?" Yu Dong said to Ye Liu but under his glare, she took off her pants.
Ye Liu looked at her swollen foot and did not know what to say to her, just now when they were returning he saw Yu Dong stumble behind him. He did not see her getting stabbed but he did smell blood, however, he knew that he could not do anything for the time being as they were being watched.
He could only pull Lu Huo along with him while hoping that his wife would be fine.
He took out a bottle of medicine that alleviated bruises from the cabinet and then turned to look at Yu Dong before saying, " If you are hurt then you should treat your wound, don't carelessly walk around like this."
Yu Dong looked down at the wound on her shin and then smiled nonchalantly, "It's fine. This is a small injury it will heal in a few days."
The poison had been cleansed already and the wound only looked scary because it was still recovering, other than that the wound was not bothering her.
