Legend Of Fuyao 289 Untitled

The leader of the Amethyst Cape Knights, on the other hand, gained interest in the suggestion. He walked down the stairs in large steps, and Li Zheng hurriedly followed, carefully holding the umbrella in his hands.

…

The girl could no longer run, and she crawled through the pool of blood with much difficulty. In her memory, she vaguely remembered that Magistrate Xian had not left because of the heavy rain, and he was staying in the guest room at the backyard. He was the head of the county and the protector of the hundred thousand odd residents in Guanyuan County. Tonight, so many members of the Li family were murdered, but as long as he was present, he would seek justice for them!

She must take revenge for the Li family!

It was the last speck of hope that supported her broken body, and allowed her to continue to struggle with every crawl she made in the rain. Usually, she could have reached the backyard in a few steps, but now, the difficulty of crawling over was similar to that of crossing an insurmountable moat.

In the guest room, Meng Fuyao sat cross-legged. She gave some instructions to Tie Cheng, who hurriedly came over. "Do not step out of this house at all and don't let anyone disturb us. We'll rely on you now." Glancing over at Zhong Yi who entered the room as well, she lowered her voice and added, "Remember, you have a huge responsibility on your shoulders."

Tie Cheng acknowledged with a solemn nod. He turned around to backface the window Meng Fuyao was facing. With his sword in his hands, he guarded the room attentively and did not even blink.

Meanwhile, the rain was too heavy, and it drowned all the screams and shouts. In such a thunderous shower, it was really very difficult for one to hear strange noises. However, Tie Cheng suddenly frowned.

He vaguely heard a voice that miserably called out "father."

Opening his eyes wide, Tie Cheng tried to find the source of the sound amidst the heavy downpour. Then, at the entrance to the backyard, he saw something slowly crawling towards him.

The girl was crawling in the muddy road and thunderous shower and her body was covered with mud and bloodstains. She was using her elbows and knees to cross the most difficult and most miserable journey in her entire life.

The leader of the Amethyst Cape Knights smirked, and he slowly followed her movements; for every crawl she made, he casually took a step forward. He was sheltered from the rain, and he folded his arms lazily as he smiled. His gaze flickered back and forth on the girl, whose curves were completely revealed as her clothes were wet. He felt that the b.u.t.t bulged nicely, the shoulders were thin and delicate, and the half-revealed skin shone due to the water drops on it. Additionally, her crawling movements seemed even more enticing than how she would like if she was naked in bed—it was better able to evoke those raw desires that were a natural part of a male's nature.

He swallowed his saliva, and his lower body tensed.

By then, the backyard was within the girl's vision.

The protector of the county, the n.o.ble Magistrate Xian, was living in one of the three rooms facing the entrance of the backyard. He was the last straw of hope for the Li family's daughter-in-law.

Meanwhile, Magistrate Xian was still awake.

He was a light sleeper, and especially since he was heavily bribed these few years, he had become more and more afraid of encountering ghosts at night. Even when he had nothing to do at home, he would wake up during midnight to count the silver under his bed to feel safe. This habit of not sleeping only intensified in a stranger's house.

He crouched beside the window and used his saliva to create a hole in the window sheet. s.h.i.+vering in fear, he watched as the girl crawled towards him like a ghost in the downpour.

Beside him was a subordinate who originated from the same hometown. The subordinate also s.h.i.+vered and shook all over. The more he watched how the Li family's daughter-in-law crawled towards them like a ghost, and how the man behind her cornered with a cunning smile, the more afraid and resentful he became. All he could think was the girl had brought the ruthless Amethyst Cape Knights into the courtyard and endangered their safety. Without holding back, he cursed. "Hey! This girl! This girl!"

Magistrate Xian covered his eyes helplessly and sighed. "Muddle-headed! Muddle-headed!"

No one knew who he referred to.

The bride of the Li family could not hear the toned-down curses of the n.o.ble visitors. She raised her head, which was covered in blood, tears, and rain, and looked hopefully at the shut door at the top of the stairs. In her imagination, she saw Magistrate Xian walking out of the door and reprimanding those evil sinners. Then, he would wave his hand, and his soldiers would come to save her and take revenge for the entire Li family.

However, in reality, the rain continued to pour while the door continued to be shut.

"Sir-"

The devastated girl struggled to climb up the stairs, and she tugged at the handles. In the meantime, the leader of the Amethyst Cape Knights smirked and watched on with no intention to stop her.

"She's knocking the door, she's knocking the door. Say that I'm not in, say that I'm not in-"

"Sir, relax, relax, just pretend that you're asleep…"

"Sir!" The girl was unable to push open the door as it was blocked with a chair on the other side. She crouched over the stairs, with half of her body exposed to the rain and the other half in front of the door. She kowtowed, making loud and clear noises as her head banged against the door. "Sir.. please save me…"

"d.a.m.ned girl! d.a.m.ned girl!" Magistrate Xian flipped over and covered his blanket over his head. He was using the thick blankets that the family had given him to shut out the miserable cries of the girl, and the thunderous sound of the rain.

Behind the door, it was calm and peaceful, and the blanket formed a coc.o.o.n around him. Outside the door, buckets of tears fell, signaling an impending death.

The sense of righteousness never appeared in the hearts of the despicable.

When the girl looked up, there was a b.l.o.o.d.y patch on her forehead, but she seemed not to notice it. Suddenly, she became silent and gazed quietly at the door, which belonged to her family but would never open for her. In that instant, she understood the filthiness and shamelessness that laid within humanity and the selfishness and timidness of humans.

Meanwhile, the leader of the Amethyst Cape Knights was becoming impatient. He smiled evilly and took large strides forward. Picking the girl up by her hair, he turned to walk away. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.

"Sir," Li Zheng hurriedly called out as he rushed over. Pointing towards the back of the three rooms, he said, "There seem to be a few martial arts wielders staying here tonight. They are quite expert wielders, so do you want to…"

Rubbing the arm that was still stiff, he looked towards where he pointed with a deep sense of hatred.

"Martial arts wielders?" The leader was stunned for a moment, but he quickly recovered and laughed hysterically. "So what? Don't they also not dare to say a word? If they dare to be nosy, I will kill them as well! Just watch how I play with this girl in front of them today. I'll make sure none of them dares to make any sound!"

As he roared with laughter, he dragged the Li family's daughter-in-law by the hair and tossed her towards Meng Fuyao's door. He grabbed his clothes, and there was a sound of tearing—the girl was completely naked.

"Ah-"

When the Li family's daughter-in-law crawled into the backyard, Meng Fuyao was already in a state of meditation.

To better replenish Zhangsun Wuji's inner energy, she was willing to return her own inner energy back to him. However, this was as dangerous as walking on a tightrope. Any slight shock could waste all their previous efforts, and even harm them both.

At that time, Tie Cheng's eyes were already bulging out of their sockets.

He guarded the room, and he had been listening to all the cries and screams in the backyard. It was as though he was going through the cruelest torture in the universe; he was so anxious that he kept looking through the window and punching his fist in his palm while pacing around. He looked at Meng Fuyao many times, and each time, he wished that she would wake up earlier so that he could save the girl. Then, he would hear the girl's desperate cries for Magistrate Xian to save her, and he would wish for Magistrate Xian to do something for the girl. When her pleas fell on deaf ears, he could feel his eye sockets tearing apart.

The room was filled with his panting—it was messy, hurried, and uncontrollable.

There were countless times that he wanted to jump to his feet and shoot out of the window. However, each time he tried to, he would stop in mid-air and fall miserably to the ground.

He was not alone, and someone needed his protection. The greatest wish in his life was to follow and protect her, even though he wasn't necessary most of the time.

This time round, she had solemnly said, "Remember, you have a huge responsibility on your shoulders."

Her instruction weighed heavier than a thousand tons. He could not bring himself to break such a huge promise.

No, he couldn't do it.

The downpour was like a wall, a transparent wall which seemed to be forcefully sent by the Heavens. The desolate wall stood right in front of him and weighed his heart down. His wide eyes were already sour from prolonged bulging, and through the waterfall-like downpour, he could see a few figures walking over in huge strides. The footsteps in the puddles of water created clear sounds of "kuada, kuada," and something soft seemed to be dragged along.

The soft thing was dragged over and heavily thrown into a puddle of water in the backyard. With a swing of a hand, the sounds of clothes tearing and crying could be heard instantly.

As the skin was completely revealed, Tie Cheng's eyes turned red.

The blood in his body seemed to not belong to him anymore. It was as though blood flowed out of his body and dashed aggressively towards the rain, towards the killings, shameless deeds, rape, and violence committed in this night.

With a raise of his legs, he shot into the sky and dashed forward without any hesitation.

Suddenly, he felt his body being pulled back. After turning around and seeing that it was Zhong Yi, Tie Cheng shouted angrily, "Let me go!"

Zhong Yi stared at Tie Cheng, who had bloodshot eyes and who looked madly in grief. After a while, he really released his grip, and Tie Cheng hurriedly dashed forward. However, Zhong Yi coldly said behind him, "Go, quickly go, and attract the enemies here. Then, you'll cause death to your master."

Tie Cheng stiffened. One leg was outside the door, and the other leg remained within.

"I really don't know how she actually chose you to be her bodyguard." The person behind him continued to mock, without the obedience and cuteness that was portrayed during the journey here. Those words. .h.i.t him like sharp knives stabbing him. "A bodyguard's sole responsibility is to protect their master well, and not always think of helping the weak or righting the wrongs. Those are things that chivalrous people do. In my opinion, you should just become a knight errant. You're not fit enough to be a bodyguard."

Tie Cheng froze in his spot. His five fingers dug deep into the window frames, and the splinters caused blood to drip. However, he really stopped moving. Moments later, he turned around extremely slowly. It seemed so difficult to turn, and it required so much of his strength that Tie Cheng could even here the cracks created by the stiff turns of his bones.

But he still turned around.

When he turned around, he had bloodshot eyes that were crimson red in color.

Zhong Yi looked at him with a strange expression. Seconds later, he spoke in a low tone, "Just bear… bear for a while. It is much more useful than doing 1,000 things for your master."

"Seal my acupoint please…" Tie Cheng gritted his teeth and begged. "Seal it!"

"And you trust me?" Zhong Yi smirked. Tie Cheng stiffened, and suddenly, he gave a low growl as he hugged his head and crouched down.

Meanwhile, a small white figure was on the ground. Lord Yuan Bao had found a mouse hole, and disregarding the dirt within it, he hid his head in the hole.

Silence fell upon the room. Everyone held their breaths, and their eyes gleamed in the dark. Those eyes were filled with pain and blood.

In the silence, the sound of the thunderous shower and screams became much more intense and clearer. It hit at one's sense of humanity like a tough whip.

But, for her, he had to tolerate! Everyone had to tolerate!

Suddenly, Meng Fuyao moved.

Her inner energy had just circulated one round, and she was trying to inject it into Zhangsun Wuji's meridian system. As this was too crucial a stage, she dared not hurry the process and wanted to understand the flow of Zhangsun Wuji's inner energy. Hence, she paused for a while.
