GBP Chapter 27 Rescue
Chapter 27 Rescue
Upon hearing the bandits' words, Jiang Qingyue glanced at the little girl that another group had captured and frowned slightly.
"What does it matter to me if you want to kill her? You think threatening me with a stranger will work?" Jiang Qingyue never expected that an innocent person would be involved in threatening her.
"It's useless, so let's take a gamble and see if you'll choose to sacrifice yourself for this stranger!"
Regardless of the outcome, it won't cause any loss to Zhuo Daoba.
Moreover, Scarface Zhuo preferred to see this kind of mutual slaughter.
The little girl was already scared, but after Zhuo Daoba said that, she became even more frightened. Knowing that she was probably going to die here, she couldn't help but cry.
"So annoying! If you cry again, I'll kill you!" Zhuo Daoba was annoyed by the sound of crying. He pointed his knife at the little girl, scaring her into pursing her lips and not daring to make a sound. After all, she was only a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl.
Jiang Qingyue knew that abandoning the little girl and leaving on her own was the best choice for her to achieve her goals. However, she did not believe that Zhuo Daoba would really keep his promise, so no matter what choice she made, it would not change her fate.
"Let her go, and I'll promise you!"
Jiang Qingyue didn't want to drag other innocent people down with her, so she decided to agree first and then deal with him properly.
Jiang Qingyue's quick agreement made Zhuo Daoba laugh heartily, "Good, that's bold! This is the first time I've ever admired a woman!"
The little girl stared in shock, forgetting even to cry. She never imagined that a complete stranger would risk his life to help her, while her closest relative would sell her out for a pittance. How tragic!
True to his word, Zhuo Daoba waved his hand, signaling the men to release the girl.
Looking at the unwilling eyes of the bandits and the lewdness in their gazes, Jiang Qingyue knew that the little girl would not escape their clutches.
"Let her go, and none of your people are allowed to follow." Jiang Qingyue had already thought of a way out for her.
The bandits' expressions changed, but when they saw the glare from Zhuo Daoba, they finally retreated dejectedly.
The little girl knew that staying would only cause more trouble, so she gave Jiang Qingyue a grateful look before running down the mountain.
"Hahahaha~" Zhuo Daoba excitedly stepped forward, snatched the knife from Jiang Qingyue's hand, and hoisted her onto his shoulder. "I keep my word. When I'm tired of playing with her, I'll definitely give it to you. You won't suffer any losses!"
Zhuo Daoba walked away, laughing.
"Thank you, boss!" After that, they ignored the little girl and happily returned to the mountain stronghold.
Inside the room, Jiang Qingyue's hands and feet were tied to both ends of the headboard. Zhuo Daoba looked down at Jiang Qingyue's graceful figure, imagining what kind of charm lay behind her wedding dress.
He reached out and lifted Jiang Qingyue's chin. "What a pity. I promised those brothers I'd give you to them, and I'll definitely keep my word. But before that, I can still let you have some fun."
After saying that, Zhuo Daoba took off his shirt, revealing his scarred chest, leaned forward, and slowly reached for Jiang Qingyue's waist.
Jiang Qingyue moved her tongue, revealing the blade hidden behind it, ready to strike at any moment.
Zhuo Daoba grinned lewdly as he stepped forward. Just as he was about to press himself against Jiang Qingyue, Jiang Qingyue stuck out her tongue, biting the small razor blade between her teeth, preparing to slit Zhuo Daoba's throat with one stroke.
Suddenly, with a loud "bang," the door shattered, and in the moonlight, Jiang Qingyue caught a glimpse of a tall figure out of the corner of her eye.
Before he could react, the figure swiftly leaped forward, kicking Zhuo Daoba over, smashing through the window and sending him flying out.
The moment Jiang Qingyue met the man's gaze, she noticed that his eyes were very complicated, making it difficult for her to understand.
Jiang Qingyue opened her mouth and spat out the razor blade, which also brought out a little blood.
Qin Xuanyu stepped forward and slowly untied Jiang Qingyue's ropes. When he saw the red marks on her wrists and the scar on her face, his eyes narrowed with a smile, and a strong killing intent surged in his heart.
"Who do you think you are, you brat, daring to ruin my good time!" Zhuo Daoba, who had finally managed to get up, saw Qin Xuanyu suddenly appear and charged towards him with the large sword hanging beside him.
Qin Xuanyu stood up and delivered a spinning kick, knocking the knife out of Zhuo Daoba's hand. He then followed up with another kick, striking Zhuo Daoba squarely in the chest, sending him flying once more.
"Protect her well." Qin Xuanyu took off his coat and draped it over Jiang Qingyue. His cold voice rang out, and Jiang Qingyue noticed that it was Yingren, whom she hadn't seen for a long time.
Several more screams were heard, and soon there was silence outside. Qin Xuanyu returned to the house and said, "Go clean up the mess."
Shadowblade accepted the order and left.
In an instant, the entire room was left with only Jiang Qingyue and Qin Xuanyu.
"Where is Mu Lan?" Qin Xuanyu's icy voice came.
Jiang Qingyue was not surprised that he knew about Mu Lan's existence. From the sudden appearance of Ying Ren and him, she had vaguely guessed the answer.
Jiang Qingyue calmly said, "I sent her to take care of other things."
But if you listen carefully, you'll notice that Jiang Qingyue's voice is trembling slightly; after all, it would be a lie to say she wasn't afraid.
Qin Xuanyu stared at Jiang Qingyue for a moment, wanting to reach out and touch the injury on her face, but ultimately stopped, his aura growing even stronger.
This girl is good at using any means to achieve her goals, but the object of her ruthlessness is herself.
"Can I still leave?"
Jiang Qingyue nodded.
"Follow."
After saying that, Qin Xuanyu took the lead and walked ahead, with Jiang Qingyue holding Qin Xuanyu's clothes and following closely behind.
Walking back into the courtyard, the bandits around were either dead or captured. The entire stronghold had been taken over by Qin Xuanyu's shadow guards.
He entrusted the matter entirely to Yingren and Yingyu, then mounted his horse and extended a hand to Jiang Qingyue.
Jiang Qingyue took his hand, and then felt a sensation of being lifted into the air before landing steadily on the horse's back.
Jiang Qingyue sat in front of Qin Xuanyu, who held the reins with both hands, making it look as if he was holding Jiang Qingyue in his arms.
As soon as Jiang Qingyue arrived at the door, she saw a smiling face peeking inside.
Jiang Qingyue never expected that she hadn't left yet.
She didn't know that Qin Xuanyu was able to find the mountain stronghold so quickly, thanks to the chance encounter with him on the road.
Seeing Qin Xuanyu with his men, she knelt down and begged him to save her. Qin Xuanyu guessed what was going on and asked her to lead the way, which is how he arrived in time.
As the saying goes, you reap what you sow. In fact, when Jiang Qingyue saved her, she also inadvertently saved herself.
"Can...can I come with you?" she asked Jiang Qingyue.
Before Jiang Qingyue could answer, Qin Xuanyu said, "You'll go with the people inside later."
The little girl happily agreed.
Qin Xuanyu led Jiang Qingyue and hurried down the mountain.
"You...you're too...too fast!" Jiang Qingyue was almost nauseous from the jolting.
Qin Xuanyu ignored her and sped along, finally stopping in front of a small house in the bamboo forest.
Qin Xuanyu was the first to dismount, then he lifted Jiang Qingyue off the horse and kicked open the door.
"It's the middle of the night, are you going to sleep? There's nothing to steal here, let's go somewhere else!"
A disheveled man staggered out from the inner room...
