"Miss, why don't you let me chase after that hidden arrow? It would attract all the Black Purgatory people in the entire Yong City," Bai Lu said with some worry.
Ji Fengyao smiled domineeringly and disdainfully, raising her pointed chin slightly, and said, "Isn't that even better? Let those rats who are used to hiding in stinking ditches come to our door to die on their own. It saves us the trouble of digging up their holes one by one. Isn't that more convenient?"
"That's right, Miss is so thoughtful!" Bai Lu clenched her fist excitedly, and whispered nervously, "I've never been in a proper fight before, today is a good day to practice!"
Seeing her like this, Ji Fengyao found it somewhat amusing and reminded her, "These dogs from Black Purgatory are all ruthless and vicious. Don't be too careless, and don't stray too far from me in a while."
"I will be careful, Miss. Please don't be too distracted while you're fighting," Bai Lu said sensibly.
Cao Jinchang kicked the skinny monkey into a corner of the room and then immobilized him by pressing his pressure point.
The girls huddled in the corner of the room looked at him in terror.
Cao Jinchang didn't recognize the girls, but their faces vaguely resembled some of his gang members.
So he took out a stack of silver notes from his pocket, handed them to them, and said, “Take these silver notes, take your families, leave Yongcheng and start a new life. Never come back again.”
The girls looked anxiously at Cao Jinchang, then at Ji Fengyao and Bai Lu.
Once they were certain that they weren't teasing them and genuinely meant them no harm, they helped each other to their feet and knelt on the ground, kowtowing to Cao Jinchang, Ji Fengyao, and Bai Lu, saying:
"Thank you, brave warrior and two heroines, for saving my life!"
"We dare not accept the banknotes!"
"It's a blessing to be alive. Thank you for your kindness, but we can't accept these gifts."
Seeing their behavior, Ji Fengyao knew that these girls were well-educated and would not take favors without reason, and that persuasion would be useless. So she reached out and cast a cleansing spell on them.
The girls' clothes were instantly transformed, becoming spotless and clean.
This bizarre effect not only astonished the girls, but also left Cao Jinchang speechless.
Ji Fengyao, with an air of superiority, said in a very mystical tone, "We are cultivators, and these gold and silver items are no different from dust to us; giving them to you is a way for us to accumulate good karma. If you are truly grateful, then accept them, as it will benefit both of us."
The girls were both surprised and delighted:
This girl is truly a goddess!
The gods do things differently; they always do things that benefit both themselves and others!
The girls excitedly accepted Cao Jinchang's silver notes and kowtowed repeatedly in gratitude.
"Then we'll accept it, thank you, fairy maid!"
"Thank you, fairy maiden!"
Ji Fengyao sensed a strong spiritual energy fluctuation coming from afar, knowing that Li Yu or other people from the Black Purgatory had arrived. She quickly urged, "Those bad guys are coming soon. Take your families and leave quickly, go far away, don't stay here, lest you get hurt in the fight."
"Yes, thank you, fairy maiden!"
The girls quickly got up, ran out of the courtyard, and untied the ropes binding their family members.
Ji Fengyao's calm voice came from inside the room: "Go through the back door."
The men, women, and children who were about to run to the front door in the courtyard all stopped abruptly, turned around, bowed to thank the family inside, and then helped each other to leave quickly through the back door.
