Chapter 127: Honored Guest Has Arrived, Pardon Our Lack of Hospitality

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Lian Qiao pushed the door open and a faint scent of grass wafted into Su Ying’s nose.

There was only a bed made of bamboo, a chair with peeling paint, and a cabinet whose original color was no longer discernible. Other than that, there was nothing else in the room.

The moment Su Ying entered the room, the little boy sitting on the bed looked at her warily.

“Little Yuan, don’t be afraid. Madam Su is here to check your pulse and see if there’s any problem with your body.” Lian Qiao stepped forward and calmed him down softly.

“Elder Sis, I’m not sick. I don’t need to see anyone.”

“If you let me take a look, your elder sister will be at ease. I won’t ask for money.”

Lian Qiao also tried to persuade him. “That’s right. Quick. Let Madam Su take a look at you. It will be fine.”

…..

Upon hearing Lian Qiao’s words, Lian Yuan slowly extended his hand.

Su Ying walked up and took his pulse, but she asked, “Are you two the only ones staying here?”

Lian Qiao quickly glanced at Su Ying and said softly, “Father and Mother passed away at the beginning of the year due to sickness, leaving only the two of us.” Su Ying nodded and released the boy’s hand. “There’s no problem. His body is too weak. This is your younger brother’s room. So you live in the other one?” Lian Qiao nodded. After getting Lian Yuan to rest properly, she led Su Ying out of the room.

“If Madam Su has any doubts, then come to my room to take a look.”

Su Ying raised her eyes to look at her.

Lian Qiao looked at her and said, “I know that Madam Su has no ill intentions. There are only the two of us here. Besides, there are only four walls in the house. There’s really nothing that I can offer to Madam Su.”

Su Ying knew that Lian Qiao had misunderstood. “I’m not here to rob you. My family members went missing on the mountain. I just happened to run into you on the way while searching for them.”

When she heard that, Lian Qiao’s brows furrowed slightly. “Is it a woman?”

Su Ying raised her eyebrows. “You saw her?”

Lian Qiao pursed her lips, hesitating for a moment before saying, “Yes. Not long after I came back with my younger brother, I heard footsteps outside. I hid in the courtyard and saw two people carrying a gunnysack and walking towards that slope. Half of the gunnysack was exposed, and I saw the embroidered shoes inside.”

Su Ying furrowed her eyebrows. “Are you sure they went towards that slope?” “Yes. I’ve lived here for a long time, so I’m quite familiar with the terrain here. Past that slope is the Azure Dragon Base. They have probably gone there.” “Okay, I got it. Thank you.” Su Ying turned around and left the courtyard. When she came in just now, she had suspected that the captives might be hidden here, but after checking, there was indeed no place to hide in the farmhouse.

Su Ying climbed onto the top of the slope and looked at the Azure Dragon Base, which was right in front of her. She narrowed her eyes.

At this moment, three gunnysacks were thrown down in front of the leader of the Azure Dragon Base, Wu Feng.

“Leader, we’ve caught three of them.”

The man pulled the gunnysacks off the heads of Lin Zhuyu and the others. “What’s the relationship between these people and that woman? How can they make her obey us?”

The subordinate was not very sure either. “I saw them living together all this while. They were usually talking and laughing together. They should be one family.”

Wu Feng glanced at the captives on the ground. “Pick one and hang him outside the gate of the base camp. We’ll know after we try.”

“Yes, Sir.”

The subordinates immediately grabbed Lin Sheng and took him out.

“Leader, if that woman doesn’t submit to us obediently…” Wei Kun said.

Wu Feng gave a scornful sneer nonchalantly. “Do you think she can walk out of here alive if she doesn’t submit to us?”

Wei Kun gave a malicious sneer. “If she doesn’t obey, we’ll tear her apart!”

Su Ying had just arrived outside the Azure Dragon Base when she saw the small figure hanging from the stone gate.

“Lin Sheng!”

A deep darkness spun out of Su Ying’s almond-shaped eyes icily, and she was just about to step forward to save Lin Sheng when she was surrounded by the guards keeping watch outside.

“Don’t be in such a hurry to save them. Our leader wants to see you. Even if you can save this one, there are still two more in there. Aren’t you afraid that they will be torn apart by our brothers before you can get in? Hahahaha!”

Su Ying swung her arm and her fist smashed into the man’s face. “If anything happens to them, I, Su Ying, will wash the entire Azure Dragon Base with your blood today!”

“Argh!”

The other party didn’t expect Su Ying to attack straightaway without fear of their threat.

Her punches hit right down to the bones, and with one punch, that person would basically never be able to get up again.

Su Ying whipped out her dagger and darted toward the rope that was holding Lin Sheng up.

The sharp tip of the knife sliced through the hemp rope in an instant, and Lin Sheng’s small body dropped down like a rag.

As Lin Sheng fell, a guard raised a big saber and slashed at him.

Su Ying sent a kick that landed on the guard’s heart, and the guard’s body flew out like a piece of tattered rag.

Su Ying grabbed the plummeting Lin Sheng in one move and tied him to her chest with her belt.

“Where is your leader? Take me to him!” Su Ying pointed her dagger at the forehead of one of the guards.

Twenty to thirty guards were simply taken down just like that. The remaining few did not even dare to step forward.

“In… in the camp… in the camp.”

“Lead the way.”

When the guards saw that Su Ying didn’t attack again, they turned around and ran as if they had seen a ghost.

Su Ying followed closely behind them and arrived at a house with black tiles and white walls.

“Leader, Leader, that woman is here, that woman is here!” The guard stumbled into the inner hall, unable to suppress the terror on his face.

Wu Feng raised his head and saw a guard being thrown in.

Bang! That body landed heavily and loudly in front of him.

The people in the hall stepped up to shield Wu Feng and eyed Su Ying warily. Wu Feng stood up and his sharp eyes swept over Su Ying icily. “All of you get out of my way. Don’t alarm my guest.”

Wei Kun and the others stepped aside to open up a path.

Wu Feng walked forward and gave a laugh as he looked at Su Ying. He gestured for Su Ying to sit down on the chair in front.

“Pardon our lack of hospitality. Forgive us for not welcoming our honored guest on your arrival. Bring me the best wine in the Azure Dragon Base. I want to treat our honored guest well.”

Su Ying narrowed her eyes. “Where are my people?”

Wu Feng looked at Su Ying, who had a hint of arrogance in her eyes, and smiled in satisfaction. This was the first time he had seen such a wild and powerful woman.

Wu Feng waved his fingers, and Lin Zhuyu and Zhang Cuiniang were brought up. The guards brought two buckets of water and poured them over their heads. The two of them regained their consciousness in an instant.

After seeing what was happening around them clearly, the two women were so scared that their faces turned pale.

“Mistress, you… you don’t need to care about us. Leave quickly!”

“Mistress, quickly take Sheng’er and leave. Don’t worry about our lives.”

Pow!

Before Zhang Cuiniang could finish her sentence, the guard slapped her in the face.

The slap was so hard that blood started to flow out of the corner of her mouth. Wu Feng looked at Su Ying’s sinister face and laughed. “Madam Su, let me toast you.”

The guard brought the wine to Su Ying and poured her a cup of wine.

“After drinking this cup of wine, you will be a member of the Azure Dragon Base from now on.. Come, cheers!”
