Medical Expenses (3)
Catching the lion was already difficult enough, but dealing with the boys shooting at it made it even more difficult. As time went on, fewer and fewer people were being caught because they had all been shot by the boys and pinned to the ground or the wall.
"Ye Lang's lion is really good. Coupled with his archery skills, he's an absolutely terrifying force," Li Yue thought to herself as she witnessed the scene.
"Your turn!" Li Yue had already reached the Vice-Commander, her body covered in blood, and she looked extremely murderous.
"No, don't kill me!" the Vice-Commander cried out in panic, terrified by Li Yue's murderous aura.
"..." Li Yue didn't speak, but instead slashed the Vice-Commander's throat with her sword, blood spurting out...
"The Vice-Commander is dead, the Vice-Commander is dead..."
After seeing the Vice-Commander to the ground, the soldiers began to abandon their weapons and armor, no longer fighting against Ye Lang and his companion. They had been chilled to the bone by the "killing," and the cries of agony on the ground only intensified their fear.
"Your medical expenses are on your Vice-Commander's shoulders. Keep your eyes open in the future, and don't run into Little Devil Girl like my sister." Ye Lang left with these last words before riding away with Li Yue on their lions.
Li Yue rolled her eyes at Ye Lang's words and then ignored Ye Lang.
The wounded soldiers, who were groaning in pain, and the onlookers who witnessed the incident, were all ashamed of Ye Lang's words. They felt that compared to the Little Devil Girl, he was slightly more terrifying, as he had wounded most of the soldiers.
Fortunately, the Little Devil Girl siblings showed mercy. Most of the soldiers were seriously injured but not in mortal danger. In particular, none of the wounded by the arrows died afterward; they only needed to rest for a while.
"Smack!"
In the study of the General of the Guard's mansion in Muyang Town, a middle-aged man slammed his hand on the table. The expression on his face told everyone that he slammed the table because he was very angry.
"You're saying that two young men and women in their early twenties defeated more than four hundred of your men and even had your Vice-Commander killed?"
"Yes..." The soldier standing in front of the desk didn't dare to breathe loudly and responded meekly.
"Useless! Are you all useless?! Where do you train all the time? What are we, the Greedy Wolf Legion, keeping you useless people around?! More than four hundred people, and you were defeated by just two people. They only spared your lives because they showed mercy!!" The middle-aged man continued to rage.
"..." The soldier dared not speak and remained silent.
"Do you know why this conflict occurred?" the middle-aged man asked.
"I don't know. Everyone below says it's because that Little Devil Girl chopped off the hands and feet of more than a dozen brothers, so the Vice-Commander in." The soldier naturally didn't dare to say that they were the ones who caused the trouble, and he didn't even mention the 25,000 gold coins for medical expenses.
"Hmph! No matter who these two are, they killed my men and injured so many of them. This matter will not be left unresolved! If we don't kill them, the prestige of our Greedy Wolf Legion will be completely destroyed!!" the middle-aged man said coldly. "Gather the troops and catch up with those two men and women."
"Yes!!"
And so, the most elite troops in Muyang Town set off to hunt down Ye Lang and his companion, who had already gone far away. They did not ask for help from other troops because they felt it was shameful and would make others laugh at them.
They were confident they could take down Ye Lang and his companion because they believed that Ye Lang and his companion were not very old, and even if they were strong, they would only be at the early stage of the Earth Grade. They thought they could take down even two Earth Grade experts.
Among this elite force, there are many martial artists at the eighth or ninth level. Even within the Greedy Wolf Legion, they would not be too bad, as Muyang Town is, after all, an important town.
Ye Lang and his companion were unaware that they were being pursued, and that these people were still so relentless, even sending out elite troops in an attempt to kill them.
Under normal circumstances, since Ye Lang and his companion didn't start the incident, and they even provided 25,000 gold coins for medical expenses, any army would have calmed things down and not pursued the matter further, only listing Ye Lang and his companion as unwelcome persons.
Because of this idea, Ye Lang and his companion were quite relaxed and at ease. After traveling for a while, they found a stream near a beautiful hill and set up camp nearby.
The bloodstains on the two of them were mainly from Li Yue, and the bloodstains on Ye Lang were also from Li Yue. At that time, they hadn't just finished fighting and then mounted the lion. Since they were riding the lion together, they would naturally bump into each other.
The bloodstains had already been removed by Ye Lang's Purification Array, which also cleaned all the dirt off the two of them and the lion, so they didn't need to take a bath.
However, Ye Lang took off his clothes and jumped into the stream to bathe. Of course, he didn't take off his underwear; he wasn't that open-minded yet.
Even so, Li Yue was still quite shy when she saw Ye Lang like this, and she avoided his gaze, tending to the campfire and preparing to roast something for dinner.
At this moment, Li Yue suddenly had a strange feeling, as if she and Ye Lang had returned to the time of the hunt, a time she could never forget!
If Ye Lang hadn't been lying to me back then, but genuinely been that good to me, how wonderful that would have been. Unfortunately, he wasn't. Still, the feeling was wonderful...
Oh no, what's wrong with me? Have I fallen for this jerk? No, that's impossible! I hate him!!
"Hmph!" Li Yue snorted coldly, throwing a stone forcefully into the woods, startling a flock of birds.
"Wow... Li Yue, Li Yue, look, look..." Ye Lang voice came from behind, which brought Li Yue back to her senses.
"What's wrong with you now?" Li Yue asked with a stern face, wanting to annoy Ye Lang, but her mouth started to widen when she saw Ye Lang.
"This... this..."
What made Li Yue so surprised? It was a fish. Of course, this was no ordinary fish; it was a big fish, a very, very big fish.
At this moment, when Ye Lang was holding this fish, it actually blocked most of his body!
"This fish is huge!" Ye Lang said excitedly.
"How did you catch this?" Li Yue asked in surprise. Ye Lang hadn't been catching fish; he was just playing in the water and taking a bath.
"Hehe, it swam here by itself. It must have known I was hungry, so it delivered itself to my doorstep," Ye Lang said casually. He never bothered to study this question.
"Yes, yes, you're the lucky one!! So, lucky one, what should we do with this fish?" Li Yue asked with a smile.
