Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Yu Youyao listened to the commotion and could only hear some noise. She calmed down. “It won’t be long before General An Yuan gives the order to attack the stronghold. The bandits are busy dealing with the enemy and don’t have time to worry about the stronghold. Yin San will bring General Black along with him and follow the incense powder that has been sprinkled all the way into the stronghold to receive the hostages. Our plan is half successful.”

Chun Xiao clenched her fists. She exerted force and broke free of the ropes around her wrists.

Yu Youyao was stunned for a moment. “You’re already so powerful?”

Chun Xiao was born with strength. In Yin Huaixi’s words, it meant that her foundation was good and she was suitable for practicing martial arts. It was just that she had started late. Thus, she had passed the best age to practice martial arts and had only practiced for a short time. It was not a problem for her to deal with ordinary people. However, if she faced those from the You army, who were experienced, she would only be beaten.

Chun Xiao explained, “I’ve only practiced and developed some hidden strength, but I haven’t developed internal strength yet. This rope is specially made and is tenacious. It’s not easy to stretch it. Yin Shi cut a hole in the rope as she was also concerned. If there’s a change in the plan, I can deal with it.”

She quickly went to help Yu Youyao untie the rope.

Yu Youyao asked curiously, “Then can you deal with the bandits outside?”

“Most of the bandits outside are ordinary people, but they’re strong. They’ve learned all kinds of martial arts. I can deal with three of them alone, but the group of people who kidnapped us into the mountain previously seem to have some moves.” Chun Xiao paused and looked at the bruises on Young Miss’s wrist. Her eyes turned red. “Young Miss, you’ve suffered.”

Yu Youyao moved her numb wrist and shook her head. “I’ll apply some medicine later. I’ll be fine in a few days. Don’t worry.”

However, Chun Xiao’s heart ached for Young Miss. All these years, Young Miss had experienced many things. It was almost impossible to see it on her face. When she was young, because it was too difficult to learn etiquette and practice calligraphy, she had learned needlework and became spoiled.

Even though she had sprained her ankle, she could still grit her teeth and walk on the mountain path for an hour without saying a word. She did not even cry out in pain.

Chun Xiao’s eyes welled up with tears. She quickly tilted her head to wipe her tears and lowered her head. “I’ll help you take a look at your sprained ankle.”

It would have been fine if she hadn’t mentioned it. At the mention of it, Yu Youyao felt a piercing pain in her ankle bone. Her swollen feet were squeezed into her narrow and hard boots. The feeling of constant pressure and swelling applied pressure on the various acupuncture points in her legs. The acupuncture points connected to the meridians in her body, and the pain would multiply.

Yu Youyao subconsciously shrank her feet and listened to the commotion outside. “Business is more important. We’ll talk about the rest after we deal with the bandits.”

Seeing that Young Miss did not look too good, Chun Xiao was worried. “But…”

At this moment, the commotion outside became louder.

“Not good, someone is attacking the stronghold outside…”

“Where’s the Chief? Hurry up and report it to him…”

“The Second-in-Charge has brought a group of people to meet the enemy outside the valley. Hurry up and pull out the people who were captured and brought into the stronghold to be hostages…”

“…”

Chun Xiao’s expression changed drastically. She quickly stood in front of Yu Youyao. “Young Miss, if the bandits rush in…”

Yu Youyao looked calm. “We’re locked up alone. If the mountain bandits want to pull people over, they have to first pull people who are locked up together. We’re still safe for the time being. Moreover, every step is in our plan now. Yin San should be here soon…”

As expected, before she could finish speaking.

There was the sound of fighting outside. As screams sounded one after another, the door of the room was kicked open with a bang.

Yu Youyao was shocked. She quickly looked at the door and her eyes suddenly paused.

There was the sound of a torch burning in the air. Under the dim yellow light, Yin Huaixi was dressed in a golden dragon and purple python robe. He was wearing a half-length green python cloak behind him. In his hand was a snow-white curved knife. The tip of the knife was facing down, and bright red blood flowed out of the blade. At the tip of the knife, beads of blood gathered and fell to the ground.contemporary romance

Generals had the habit of wearing cloaks and capes outside. This was because when generals were on the move, they often slept in the wind. When the military situation was urgent, they couldn’t set up camp. The cloaks and capes could lighten their travel clothes, allowing them to resist the wind and sand.

Therefore, Yu Youyao could tell at a glance that he was travel-worn. She opened her mouth, wanting to ask, “Why are you here?”

However, before she could ask, Yin Huaixi strode forward and pulled Yu Youyao into his arms. His arms wrapped tightly around her shoulders. He was so strong that he almost crushed her bones in his arms.

Yu Youyao opened her mouth, wanting to call him.

Suddenly, she heard a relieved cry. Yin Huaixi let out a long breath, and his voice was stuck in his throat. She slowly raised her hand and wrapped it around his waist. She said softly, “I’m fine.”

It would have been fine if she hadn’t spoken, but the moment she did, there was a sense of warmth, as if someone had torn a hole in her. There was a sense of ruthlessness.

Yin Huaixi retreated and held her round shoulders with both hands. His dark eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Yu Youyao and looked at her deeply.

His face was so calm that it was almost demonic. His red lips seemed to have been licked by the blood-red red spider lily in hell, revealing a burning and demonic smile.

That smile was clearly from anger.

“Very good. Yu Youyao, you’re very good. Very good.” He held her shoulder hard, almost crushing the bones in her shoulder. “Your wings have hardened, huh?!”

His voice was very soft, like the charming words of love between lovers. It was lingering and sentimental, and his expression was almost demonic. There was no hint of anger.

However, Yu Youyao knew him very well. From the red blood vessels in his eyes that extended to the corners of his red eyes, she could tell that he was anxious.

“I didn’t.” Yu Youyao tried to explain.

Yin Huaixi gritted his teeth and squeezed out the words from between his teeth. “How dare you take the risk, huh?!”

Yu Youyao’s scalp went numb and she shrank back, but she had no choice but to bite the bullet and explain, “I just…”

She had been afraid of him since she was young.

Although Yin Huaixi rarely spoke to her loudly or even scolded her, every time he narrowed his eyes and pursed his lips, he would have a dignified aura.

Yin Buxi stared at her with bloodshot eyes. His red lips were about to smile as he asked, “But what? Why don’t you continue, huh?”

Yu Youyao saw that there was a hint of red at the corner of his eyes, as if he had been licked by anger. It was so red that it was demonic. She quickly shut her mouth and lowered her head, looking obedient.

Yin Huaixi remained graceful, noble, and calm, as if he knew everything in the world and was confident.

She had only seen Uncle Sun help Yin Huaixi clear his internal acupuncture points. Also, when Yin Huaixi was practicing walking, she saw that the corners of his long and narrow eyes were red, as if someone had applied powder on him.
