Chapter 49: Interesting

Xiao Shao turned his gaze back to the cold corpse in front of him, and continued to examine the cause of death carefully. A few minutes later, he found a long, thin, pale gash on his neck. He traced the long wound slowly with his slender finger.

’This is a wound from a very sharp weapon. The only one who can kill without blood is the Pavilion Master of the Moon Pavilion. Don’t tell me, her real identity is–’

When Xu Xiang’s question came from behind, Xiao Shao’s thoughts stopped abruptly.

"Young Master Xiao, do you still need a long time to examine the bodies?" She asked while yawning.

Seeing her sleepy look, Xiao Shao stood up and said, "Let’s go back. We must leave this place immediately."

When Xu Xiang heard his words, she looked at him. She tilted her head and asked, "Why? It’s hard to find a good place to spend the night. Besides, it’s almost dawn. We can go after breakfast."

He looked at her seriously and shook his head. "We have to go now. These people were members of the bandit gang. Their members are criminals exiled from their country. For these people, killing is a hobby and there is nothing they won’t do."

As soon as he finished speaking, her drowsiness disappeared instantly. She got up and said, "Let’s go."

He watched her carefully as they walked back to the cave. But the more he observed her, the harder it was for him to understand her. Stepping into the cave, he begins to doubt his guesses about her true identity.

Xu Xiang didn’t know that Xiao Shao had a headache because of her real identity. She hurried to check on Xiao Jing when they walked into the cave. Seeing that Xiao Jing was already awake but her face was a little pale, she looked at Xiao Shao.

"Young Master Xiao, you go and notify your family, and I will notify the Fan family right away."

Hearing her voice, Xiao Shao’s thoughts were pulled back from his contemplation. He nodded to her and went to his family. He walked briskly towards his family and spoke when he saw them looking at him.

He looked at his younger brother and asked, "How is Jing’er?"

Xiao Han looked at his elder brother and said, "Elder Sister is fine. Elder Brother, why are you in such a hurry? What happened?"

Xiao Shao looked at him and his parents and said, "We have to leave now. Those who attacked Jing’er and Miss Fan were members of the bandit gang. Now that they’re dead, the other members won’t let us go."

They were not too surprised when they heard his words. Bandit gangs are known to thrive in the Exiled Lands. Almost everyone knows how these gangs of bandits operate. Whenever people come across these gangs of bandits, they either lose their lives or money. In worst case scenarios, men lose their lives, while women and children live a life worse than death.

After a moment of silence, Xiao Yi looked at his wife and said, "My wife, help Jing’er onto the sleigh, Da Lang and Er Lang will help me pack our things."

Wen Wan nodded to her husband, got up and went to help her daughter get on the sleigh. When Xiao’s family had already started to pack their things, Xu Xiang had trouble with the Fan family. Standing by the sleigh, she looked at Fan Zhengyue with calm eyes. Stared at by Xu Xiang, Fan Zhengyue lowered her eyes and sobbed softly.

As a person living in the cruel apocalypse world, Xu Xiang has seen countless women’s tricks before. This kind of pitiful trick is the most common in the apocalypse. Women who have no ability and no backer will use this trick to win the protection of men and the masses. They pretend to be innocent and pitiful, only to cover up their rotten hearts and ruthlessness.

Fan Zhengyue noticed that Xu Xiang looked at her with indifferent eyes. Not getting the reaction she wanted, she sobbed and leaned feebly towards her grandmother. If a normal man saw her now, he would definitely rush up to protect her. She slightly raised her eyes to look at Xu Xiang, and spoke in a weak voice.

"Miss Xu, you see... There are a lot of people on this sleigh. It’s really uncomfortable for us. Can’t you let me sit on the mule cart?" She asked while observing Xu Xiang’s reaction.

Listening to her soft voice, goosebumps appeared on Xu Xiang’s arms. Just when she was still guessing why Fan Zhengyue used such pitiful methods on her, she found that Fan Zhengyue’s body suddenly became weaker, and her voice became softer in an instant. Raising her eyebrows, she followed her gaze and saw Xiao Shao walking over.

’Interesting. It seems that no matter which world, the most powerful weapon a woman like her can use is the protection of men.’

Xu Xiang looked back at Xiao Shao, and glanced at Fan Zhengyue. She wanted to see what she would say in front of Xiao Shao. Based on her experience, she dared to bet that Fan Zhengyue would use all reasoning and excuses to slander her in front of Xiao Shao.

And as she expected, before Xiao Shao could speak, Fan Zhengyue had already cried softly and said, "Eldest Young Master Xiao, please help me."

While speaking, she lowered her eyes and kept her sight fixed on Xu Xiang. Based on her words and deeds, no matter how stupid people are, they will think that Xu Xiang has done something to her. When Xiao Shao heard Fan Zhengyue’s words, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Xu Xiang.

Xu Xiang looked like she was watching a play, as she just stood there and watched them with a slight smile in the corner of her lips. Seeing that Xu Xiang was silent and didn’t explain anything, Xiao Shao looked at the members of the Fan family and asked, "What happened?"
