Apocalypse survivor Xu Jinhuan transmigrates into the body of an unloved true heiress. Expecting a satisfying revenge story against her family, she instead finds her adoptive father has backed the ...
"Second Master, watch out, that female demon is coming..."
One of the henchmen turned around and saw Xu Jinhuan. Before he could finish shouting, Xu Jinhuan's long sword had already pierced through his body.
As for the second-in-command, his fighting skills were even inferior to those of the bandit leader. Before they could even exchange a few blows, Xu Jinhuan killed him with a single strike.
Then, Xu Jinhuan moved through the bandits like a god of death, killing them one by one with his sword.
"This is terrifying! This woman is terrifying!"
"No, don't come any closer!"
"Ugh, I miss my mom!"
The bandits were so terrified by Xu Jinhuan that they lost all sense of purpose and had no desire to fight back. They cried out for help and only wanted to escape.
The others on the field stared in disbelief at this scene. This was incredible! How exactly did the Xu family raise their children? They wanted to learn too!
Without the slightest hesitation, Xu Jinhuan continued to kill the fleeing bandits. These people reeked of blood and had clearly killed many people. Killing them was another way of doing good deeds.
Xie Datou turned around and looked at the stunned scholars and literati, and shouted impatiently, "What are you standing there for? If you don't nip it in the bud now, do you want them to come and burn your house down in the middle of the night?"
After saying that, she rolled her eyes at them.
They're really useless. Their boss is fighting bravely over there, exhausted like a spinning top, while these grown men have the nerve to slack off.
Xie Datou turned around and continued swinging his long sword. His words seemed to wake the others from their daze, and they joined the battle.
Soon, apart from the bandit leader, there were no other bandits left alive in front of the dilapidated temple.
"We really did it!" a young man shouted excitedly, spreading his arms wide.
The middle-aged man from before staggered two steps, knelt earnestly before Xu Jinhuan, and kowtowed forcefully, saying, "Thank you, Miss Xu, thank you, Miss Xu!"
Anyone with eyes to see could see that if Xu Jinhuan didn't make a move this time, they would definitely be doomed.
As a result, many people knelt on the ground.
"Thank you so much, Miss Xu, for saving my life!"
"Miss Xu, from now on you will be a great benefactor to our family. I will carve a longevity tablet for you!"
Xu Jinhuan waved his hand, then pointed to Xie Datou not far away and said seriously.
"The officers also contributed to our victory over the bandits this time. Please thank them as well, not just me."
Everyone nodded in unison, and since they were all men, they gave the constables a bear hug.
"Brother, you may be a bit greedy, but you're a true hero. If you hadn't helped me kill that bandit, I would definitely be dead!"
"Lord Xie, I really misunderstood you before. It is thanks to your composure in the face of danger that you removed our shackles and gave us weapons, which gave us the opportunity to fight desperately."
Xie Datou quickly shook his head and respectfully cupped his hands in the direction of Xu Jinhuan.
"Actually, this was all thanks to my boss. She was the one who first discovered the bandits and came up with the idea of removing the shackles to defend against the enemy."
Everyone present was stunned. What did Lord Xie just say? Boss? They couldn't have heard wrong, could they?
Xu Jinhuan, who was called the boss, had already reached the entrance of the dilapidated temple and looked at them helplessly.
"You guys really enjoy getting watered?"
The group wiped their faces, then remembered it was still raining, and quickly grabbed their weapons and ran back to the dilapidated temple.
"Big Head, don't forget to bring that bandit in. I have something to ask him," Xu Jinhuan instructed.
Xie Datou immediately agreed, walked to the corner, grabbed the bandit leader, and only when he got closer did he realize that the bandit leader had nothing on him, but was sitting obediently in the corner.
This made Xie Datou admire his boss even more. It must have been his boss's personal charisma that influenced the bandit leader, leading him to abandon evil and embrace good.
Thinking this, he dragged the bandit into the dilapidated temple like a dead dog.
Xu Jinhuan had already gone to the kitchen, opened the cellar, and called everyone over.
"The bandits have been wiped out, it's safe now, everyone come out quickly."
The women in the cellar cheered immediately upon hearing this.
"Oh my god, we really won!"
"Quick, everyone, go up there and see if anyone is hurt!"
"Let the children go up first; they're really getting restless."
So the people below lined up and let the children climb up first.
After the children came out, they waited obediently for their mother. One of the more timid children immediately cried out when he saw the bloodstains on Xu Jinhuan's face that had not been wiped clean.
"Mother, there's blood, I'm scared!"
The women below were startled when they heard the child crying. They thought the bandits had returned and quickly increased their climbing speed.
Meanwhile, a little girl began to comfort the crying child.
"Little brother, don't be afraid. That sister isn't a bad person, she's a good person! She must be covered in the blood of bad people. Look, she's all wet, she did that to protect us."
So, what should we say?
The little girl taught her younger brother in her still-childish words, and the crying child stopped crying after hearing his sister's words, wiping the tears from his face.
She approached Xu Jinhuan apologetically and said earnestly, "Big sister, I'm sorry. I was rude just now!"
Xu Jinhuan smiled and said, "It's okay, a good child is one who knows their mistakes and can correct them."
By this time, many women had already crawled out of the cellar. They looked at Xu Jinhuan, whose clothes were stained with blood, and their faces showed a hint of fear.
When the child's mother saw that her child was with Xu Jinhuan, she rushed forward and took the child away, as if she was afraid that Xu Jinhuan would harm the child.
