C26 (1/2)

Since Mongolia took over the Central Plains, it had imposed a policy of high pressure on the Han people, repeatedly waged war on foreign countries, and in order to solve the financial crisis, it had given money and grain to the people of the south. The people of the south had suffered unspeakably, the social conflict had intensified, and chaos had taken place in the world.

Because of Zhang Sanfeng's fame, it was not too chaotic around Mount Wudang, but as soon as they stepped out, they were bullies that bullied the common people, and it was common for patrolmen and robbers to kill the common people.

It was currently the most lustful spring day of the year, but for the villagers of Yu Xin Village, it was a day of disaster. A group of Tarantula soldiers were burning, killing, robbing, and looting the village.

”Kill …”

”Save me …”

”Daddy … where are you …”

”Hahaha … hurry up and kill … hahaha!”

Miserable screams, shouts, and cries were mixed together in this small village. It was as if a desolate aura was being emitted from the village.

Along with the blood on his face, his expression became even more ferocious. Then, the officer suddenly saw a crying little girl in the middle of the road, and with a big knife in his hand, he rode his horse towards the little girl, and at the same time, he revealed a cruel smile on his face.

The girl looked to be about five or six years old. She was still in her innocent youth, and was already frightened by the scene around her. She had been fighting on the spot the entire time without moving at all.

As the officer looked at the approaching girl, the corners of his mouth curled up even more. The malevolent expression on his face intensified. Adding to the bloodstains on his body, he looked like a demon from hell.

Just as the officer was about to cut down his sabre on the girl, he suddenly felt a shadow flash past him, and the sabre in his hand actually missed. Just as he was thinking about what was going on, he felt a sudden pain in his neck, and his vision went dark, and he fell off his horse. Blood kept flowing out of his mouth, and his chest heaved violently.

”Milord …”

When the other soldiers saw their leader suddenly fall off his horse, there was no movement. They didn't know why he suddenly fell off while he was still fine a moment ago.

”Little girl, don't cry, your mother is here.”

A young man dressed in azure and blue clothes handed the girl in his hand to a panicked woman who was running over.

The woman immediately embraced the child with tears in her eyes. She thanked the youth who had saved her daughter, ”Thank you, benefactor. Thank you.”

When the youth saw that the woman was about to bow down, he immediately held her by the waist and said, ”Sister-in-law, there is no need to be like this. This place is dangerous. It's better if you take your child and hide.”

As the young man spoke, his eyes scanned the surroundings. Hearing that, the woman remembered what had happened. She immediately carried the child and ran frantically toward a small path not too far away.

Only when the woman's figure disappeared from the youth's sight did he turn around and look at the soldiers that were about to surround him.

”Stinking brat, who are you? Did you just kill our captain?” One of the sergeants raised his broadsword and shouted angrily at the young man with a face filled with killing intent.

”Hmph. For the sake of the general not thinking of protecting his family and his country, rob and settle his people, and actually kill and punish his people. From what I see, this dynasty is not far from destruction.” The youth grunted coldly, completely indifferent to the killing intent in the surroundings.
