Chapter 1160: Chapter 1160: Come onto My Back

"Who would’ve thought, these people ignored you, instead leering at the Su Su beside you with lustrous eyes. The young man who stopped you earlier smirked as he ogled Su Su’s graceful, delicate body. ’Second Leader instructed us to set up a checkpoint here, never imagined we’d snag such a fine beauty, heh heh, tonight will be fun for us brothers!’"

"Are you an idiot? Such a beautiful woman should naturally be presented to Second Leader." A brawny man resembling a small-time leader slapped the young man, then barked at you, "Kid, get off your horse, or I’ll spear you to death!"

"Who is it, who’s disturbing my sweet dream, asking for trouble!" Xing Kong, with a great sword on his back, walked out from the carriage looking irritated, which caused some of the bandits to take a few steps back in fear.

"They look like robbers." You scanned the surroundings before fixing your gaze on the small-time leader, "Who are you? Why have you set up a checkpoint here?"

Seeing that you were outnumbered, the small-time leader gathered his courage and shouted, "I’m a squad leader of the Vanguard Camp of Black Flag Stronghold! Brat, hand over the woman and all your valuables, or I’ll stab you to death with my spear!" He didn’t forget to brandish the long spear in his hand as he spoke.

"Black Flag Stronghold?"

You have just arrived at Sad Plains, naturally you had not heard of this bandit group.

However, Xing Kong furrowed his brow and said to you, "Brother, this Black Flag Stronghold is not simple at all. It’s one of the seven major forces of Sad Plains, part of the Eight Flags Alliance. It’s said that each flag of the Alliance has over five thousand members, active in the western and southwestern parts of Sad Plains."

At that moment, Yu Ye also stepped out of the carriage and said in a deep voice, "I knew this task wouldn’t be easy when I took the token from the deputy camp commander, but I didn’t expect to encounter people from the Eight Flags Alliance."

"Since the enemy is so formidable, do you still intend to proceed?" Your face still wore a smile, your eyes brimming with confidence.

"Of course, we, as a couple, have seen our share of big scenes, would we be afraid of a mere Black Flag Stronghold?"

This time, unusually, Yu Ye did not pinch Xing Kong’s ear; she seemed to realize the seriousness of the situation. After a moment of thought, she nodded towards you and whispered, "Since we’re here, let’s still head to Moyun Village."

You nodded, smiling at Xing Kong, "You take the left, I’ll take the right, leave one alive each to interrogate later."

"No problem!" Xing Kong let out a hearty laugh, pulled out his great sword and charged towards the group on the left, while you drew your chopper and pounced towards the robbers on the right.

Yu Ye and Su Su sat in the carriage and did not take action. Your and Xing Kong’s movements were swift; like a force of nature, the two of you sent the robbers on their way to Hell.

Xing Kong’s great sword swept wildly, claiming the lives of robbers with every swing; your moves, though seemingly simple, were often lethal with just one strike. Initially, your movements were somewhat rusty, but as the battle progressed, they became faster, fluid and sharp, as if they came from a prestigious house.

In no time, you dragged a short man before the two women.

Xing Kong was faster than you. He kicked his captive and laughed at you, "Heh heh, wasn’t I right? My great sword definitely kills people faster than you."

You just smiled without saying a word. Truth be told, you still preferred Gun, Brush, and Blade because you were trained in the Qi Tian Stick Method and wielded the Immovable Dragon Pole as your weapon – there’s nothing more satisfying than slamming down that stick.

"Big boss, don’t kill me, please! I’ll say anything, I’ll tell everything!"

Two survivors clung tightly to each other, their faces filled with terror as they looked at you and Xing Kong. To them, as robbers, killing was not frightening. But what terrified them was someone who could send over sixty robbers to Hell with a laugh and a joke—such a person absolutely could not be offended.

"Now I’ll ask a question, and you’ll answer. If you don’t answer well, I’ll stick a knife in you." At this time, three small knives magically appeared in Yu Ye’s delicate hands.

"Merciful heroine, please spare us! I’ll say anything, everything!" Having seen how formidable you and Xing Kong were, the robbers dared not hold back.

"Why has Black Flag Stronghold appeared here?"

"Our great leader brought over a thousand brothers to encircle Moyun Village, it seems to retrieve some treasure for Fire Demon." One of the men hurriedly spoke up first.

"Who is the Fire Demon?" Yu Ye quickly asked.

"Fire Demon is... Ah!" As the shorter robber began to speak, a flying knife from Yu Ye was already embedded in his shoulder.

"I already told you not to talk nonsense with me. Speak! Who is Fire Demon?"

"The Fire Demon... the Fire Demon is a magician, his magic is very powerful, and the great leader is very fond of him." The short man began to tremble slowly due to the pain.

"Who is leading the team this time? Did Fire Demon also come?"

"The team is led by our Second Leader and Fifth Leader, and Fire Demon has come too. He seems to have taken a fancy to our Fifth Leader."

"Why did your leaders set up a checkpoint here? Have they not yet managed to take down a small village with over a thousand men?"

"This... Ah!"

The shorter robber hesitated for a moment when another small knife sank into his thigh, instantly causing him to break out in a cold sweat from the pain.

"I’ll talk, I’ll talk! The people of Moyun Village set up a very strong barrier outside the village. Aside from Fire Demon, there are no other magicians in our group, so we can’t take down Moyun Village for the moment. Moreover, Moyun Village has the assistance of a Flammeous Spirit, which has caused us quite some losses."

Yu Ye nodded her head and then generously gave each man a small knife. The two knives accurately and inerrantly pierced the hearts of the two robbers, killing them instantly.

"Ah!"

Su Su was frightened by Yu Ye’s action, and her complexion had been off since you and Xing Kong began killing. As a mercenary, her reaction was quite strange.

Su Su looked at the two dead robbers with a compassionate expression, then turned to Yu Ye and said, "Sister Yu Ye, they’ve already told us everything we need to know. Why did you still have to kill them?"

Yu Ye let out a deep sigh and said, "Little sister, there’s something you must understand. We cannot afford to be kind and soft-hearted towards enemies; otherwise, if we become negligent because of this, in the end, it will be us who suffer."

"The carriage is too conspicuous; we can only proceed on foot from now on. Black Flag Stronghold has already sealed the road to Moyun Village, so it seems we must take a detour." You went up to Su Su, speaking to her, "Come up on my back."

"Mu Yun, tell me, is what we’re doing really worth it?" You didn’t know much about Su Su’s past, and she never spoke of it either. She only mentioned that the Level 1 Badge on her chest was assigned to her when she followed a team on a mission, and she didn’t do anything throughout the process.

Which is to say, Su Su’s combat ability was actually very weak.
