Chapter 547: Chapter 278 Tell My Sister-in-law, I’m Getting Married!_3

Life and death are destined; no one is stopping you if you wish to die.

However, at that moment, the temple survivors saved by Ran Qingchen arrived, and since they had witnessed the soldiers killing people, they recounted everything they had seen.

This completely stunned everyone.

If one person says the soldiers kill, it’s not believable; two people would be doubted.

But when three, four people, numerous people all say the soldiers were slaughtering, the crowd couldn’t help but believe.

So, the originally rowdy crowd changed their minds and chose to flee with Mr. Zhao.

"Lord Ran, we really owe you this time. You’re practically a living Buddha,"

Mr. Zhao said with sincere gratitude.

Ran Qingchen flashed a smile, but a shadow covered her heart when she thought of the hellish scene she had witnessed before.

Jiang Shouzhong said, "As long as it went smoothly, if anyone causes trouble, just leave them behind. No need for niceties."

He wasn’t as kind-hearted as Ran Qingchen.

Saving you once doesn’t mean I’ll foolishly save you a second time; those who want to die, die; those who want to live, stay.

Everyone here is an adult, not a child.

Mr. Zhao grunted in agreement but suddenly remembered something and said in a low voice:

"Master Jiang, among these survivors are people from the Demon Clan; I kept them until the end. What do you think should be done with them? However, these few from the Demon Clan actually have good hearts and volunteered to help with the rescue."

The Demon Clan?

Jiang Shouzhong hesitated for a moment and then said, "Take me to see them."

Entering a vast chamber, Mr. Zhao pointed to a few demons helping support the elderly and said, "Those are the people, quite polite and compassionate."

The demons were dressed in plain clothes indistinguishable from ordinary farmers. But when Jiang Shouzhong saw one of them, he was initially shocked and then burst into laughter.

It was like someone had delivered a pillow as he was dozing off.

He quickly approached: "Jin, what are you doing here?"

Indeed, it was none other than Jin Ao, the protector from the Sky Demon Sect who had previously planned to knock Jiang Shouzhong unconscious and present him to his sect master.

After his last disruptive visit to the Su Family, where he failed to kill Su Shanke, which irritated him, he then helped Su Junwen ascend to the position of Su Family Master, staying in Qingzhou to continue searching for Su Shanke.

Jin Ao was surprised to see Jiang Shouzhong: "Is that you, lad?"

He stepped forward, wrapping an arm around Jiang Shouzhong’s shoulders, and said brusquely, "I was wondering if you’d come to Qingzhou, and here you are. It’s fate. It’s a pity my sect master isn’t here; otherwise, I could arrange for you—"

Jiang Shouzhong quickly interrupted him:

"Jin, let’s discuss these trivial matters later. Right now, I need your help with something crucial."

Jin Ao, being a straightforward man, patted his chest and said, "We’re all family here, just say the word."

Jiang Shouzhong wasted no time and concisely explained his plan to relocate the survivors to Dead Man Island, pleading, "Jin, when these people pass through Sky Demon Sect’s territory, I hope you can let them through."

After hearing this, Jin Ao scratched his head and said:

"Shouzhong, this matter isn’t big, yet it isn’t small either; it all depends on the sect master’s wishes. But rest assured, I’ll discuss it with the sect master."

"Thank you very much," Jiang Shouzhong said with a fist salute.

"Besides..."

At that moment, Ran Qingchen hesitated, then said, "Protector Jin, may I have a word with you in private?"

Jin Ao was taken aback but nodded.

Ran Qingchen’s eyes turned to Jiang Shouzhong: "Jiang Mo, you come too."

The three moved to a secluded area where Ran Qingchen spoke: "Protector Jin, you’re aware of my identity, aren’t you?"

Jin Ao laughed: "Of course, I know."

Ran Qingchen had been appointed by the court as the new head of an institution, which others may not care about, but the Demon Clan did pay attention to.

In simple terms, she represents the iconic figure in demon-hunting.

Therefore, in the Demon Clan, many compare Ran Qingchen to Qu Hongling.

Glancing at her husband beside her, Ran Qingchen said to Jin Ao, "When you return to the Sky Demon Sect, tell Qu Hongling that her sister-in-law, Ran Qingchen, begs her to let these people pass."

When she spoke these words, both Jiang Shouzhong and Jin Ao were astounded.

Jiang Shouzhong had previously heard from Ran Qingchen that she had acknowledged a sworn sister but had not mentioned who it was.

It turned out to be Qu Hongling, the sect master of the Sky Demon Sect.

Wife, oh wife, you are the face of the court-sanctioned demon hunters, and you’re sworn sisters with a Demon Clan sect master; is this really appropriate?

Jin Ao’s eyes widened: "Lord Ran, you can’t be joking about this."

Ran Qingchen smiled and said, "Just ask Qu Hongling yourself; I wouldn’t dare joke about this. Once you’ve spoken to her, I believe my sister-in-law will help."

Jin Ao’s expression was complex.

What’s happening to this world?

Have the mice and cats become family?

Although he believed Ran Qingchen wasn’t lying, he suppressed his astonishment within and laughed, saluting her: "Rest assured, Lord Ran; I will definitely convey your message."

"Also..."

Ran Qingchen’s cheeks lightly blushed as she softly said, "Tell my sister-in-law that I am getting married in the Capital. It would be wonderful if she could come."

Getting married?

Jin Ao was again shocked.

This renowned Capital Pearl is getting married, but to whom?

He instinctively glanced at Jiang Shouzhong and instantly understood.

Jin Ao felt a bit bittersweet inside. His instincts had been right; this youngster was in high demand.

It was a pity that his sect master wasn’t that fortunate.

Unless the sect master or this Lady Ran was willing to play a lesser role.

But both women were unparalleled beauties; who would want to share a man, even if they were sworn sisters?

With these thoughts, Jin Ao finally abandoned the idea of matchmaking, and nodded, saying, "I’ll convey the message, and knowing the sect master’s character, I believe she will definitely come in person to congratulate Lady Ran."

She might even make a grand gesture...

Though Jin Ao didn’t say it out loud, he felt that Qu Hongling would indeed do such a thing.
