“What is the Third Leader doing? Why did she not kill that girl and avenge the Great Leader?”
“Could it be that the Third Leader has taken pity on her?”
The crowd began to burst into a lively discussion as their eyes filled with suspicion.
The man with the scar furrowed his brows. His bloodshot eyes were filled with dissatisfaction as he scolded angrily, “Third Sister, what are you doing? Don’t you know that your compassion will result in the destruction of the Snow Jade Bandits?”
Everyone knows that the Third Leader has a fondness for pretty little girls. This was the basis for the scarred man’s accusation.
However, at this moment, no one could see the perilous situation brewing in the woman in red’s heart!
“Impossible, this is impossible!”
The woman in red’s expression was one of complete defeat. She shook her head as her eyes filled with astonishment and shock.
“Master.”
The little Vermillion Bird grinned at Gu Ruoyun, “Can I eat her now?”
The woman in red staggered as if lightning had just struck on a clear day.
She bit her lips, slowly moving her gaze from the little Vermillion Bird onto Gu Ruoyun.
It was only now that she noticed the way the little girl had addressed the woman in green.
“You… Who on earth are…”
Before she could ask any further, a powerful coercion erupted from the little Vermillion Bird’s body and forced her words back down her throat. The enormous fire spiritual beast then suddenly appeared behind her, staring down at her in a commanding manner.
“Stupid human, don’t you know that there’re some people whom you simply can’t offend? Since you’ve chosen to offend them, you must experience death!”
The fire spiritual beast stirred its wings. Instantly, a scorching flame came charging out from behind it. “No!” the woman in red screamed before she lost her life in the flames…
“Ling’er, I’ll leave these guys to you. Don’t let any of them escape!”
The little Vermillion Bird yawned as she lazily ordered the Firebird.
“Yes, Leader.”
The Firebird responded reverently. It then charged towards the throng of Snow Jade Bandits who were scattered about.
Within a short period of time, the entire street was filled with gruesome wails and howls! Some were even cursing the woman in red’s ancestors up until the eighteenth generation.
“Miss, I truly thank you for this.”
Once everything had been settled, Wen Yan approached Gu Ruoyun with a warm smile on his handsome features. “If it had not been for you, I’m afraid that the Cloudy Wind City would be faced with our first and last disaster.”
“There’s no need to thank me,” Gu Ruoyun shook her head as her eyes darted back and forth. She smiled as she said, “I believe that many people who have witnessed this sort of thing would be compelled to help.”
Of course, this definitely did not include her.
