Chapter Thirty-Eight: Cleanup and Aftermath



"Alas, I was fortunate to be saved today by a young hero. In that moment, I forgot to ask his name, and I now owe him a debt of gratitude. My Qin family has always been one to repay kindness with kindness and to avenge wrongs with wrongs. I was careless today!"

Although that young swordsman seemed aloof and neither entirely righteous nor entirely evil, his way of doing things was quite interesting!

Thinking of the way the man in black died, Qin Su understood.

"Father, there's no need to worry. That young hero who came to our rescue must be a chivalrous person who won't care about such things. Although our Qin family doesn't like to owe favors, we can't keep people here in this desolate place. If fate allows, we will surely meet again!"

Master Qin nodded, "This is the only way forward."

In a flash, the image of bandits that the young hero had mentioned came to mind. Perhaps they were bandits from the surrounding mountains?

Thinking of this, he shook his head with amusement. Those bandits who rob and plunder are all greedy and greedy, how could they save people from danger?

Qin Su had surveyed the terrain and landforms, and as he looked at the distant, undulating mountain ranges, his brows furrowed slightly.

"Father, how are you feeling? We shouldn't stay here any longer."

"Yes, let's go. That young hero also gave me the same advice. I'm fine; I can hold out until we get into the city."

Master Qin pressed his lower back and abdomen, saying that he had heard that bandits were rampant in this area and it was indeed not advisable to stay for long.

Qin Su instructed the guards to help his father mount his horse, while he cautiously observed his surroundings. Looking at the towering trees and dense bushes, he knew that very few people had ever set foot in this area; the mountains and wilderness were the best places to hide danger.

The group mounted their horses and quickly disappeared along the mountain path!

Once they had completely disappeared, Mo Lan, who was hiding in the shadows, turned around and came out, only to find that green-faced fox again!

From their first meeting, she knew that the man was no ordinary person, especially his eyes, which were too cold and dangerous.

His sky-blue robe, jade belt with auspicious cloud patterns, bamboo leaf embroidery on the cuffs and collar, and the dark cloak with silver auspicious totems at the hem, along with the mutton-fat jade crown that held his hair together, all exuded luxury.

A person dressed so elegantly is no ordinary gentleman.

Stay as far away as possible from such dangerous individuals.

Fortunately, she didn't let that person die here, otherwise it would have been really hard to explain.

Thinking of this, Mo Lan walked up to the men in black, took out a bottle of potion from the mandala, and dripped it onto them. After a wisp of green smoke, the corpse rotted into a pool of blood, seeped into the soil, and disappeared.

Only after doing all this did he turn and leave.

What she didn't know was that shortly after she left, the person who had just left returned.

If Mo Lan were here, she would recognize at a glance that these two were the two bodyguards who followed Qin Su.

Looking at the cleared woods, the two exchanged a glance and immediately became wary.

After surveying the area, the two men looked serious and said, "Let's go."

Qin Su had just settled her father when the two men came in to report.

"Young Master, I'm too late. Those assassins have already been eliminated."

"Hmm?" Qin Su paused for a moment. "Any other discoveries?"

"It was cleaned very thoroughly, there was nothing suspicious about it."

They've only been gone for less than 15 minutes. Who are they to be able to move so fast?

Could it be that...

"I've heard that several bandit groups are lurking in that area. Wufeng, why don't you personally lead a team to investigate and see if anything seems amiss?"

Qin Su frowned, tapping her long, slender fingers on the table as she gave a cold order.

"I'll take care of it right away." Wu Feng bowed and turned to leave.
