Crazy Woman

As he walked, Xian He suddenly sped up.

It was because he noticed someone was following him.

He wasn't sure who it was, but they were definitely not a good person.

When Xian He accelerated, the person behind him also accelerated.

When Xian He started running, the person behind him also started running.

"Who is it?"

"Who's following me?"

"What do they want?"

Xian He abruptly turned around and drew the Poisoned Dagger sheathed at his waist.

The person following him braked sharply and stopped.

Xian He narrowed his eyes and saw that the person following him was...

A woman with delicate features!

Xiao Hou gritted his teeth, staring at the woman's elegant back, cursing, "Where did this bitch come from, daring to ruin this great master's good deed!"

Just as he was about to stab Xian He in the back, this slut suddenly appeared, flew past him, and chased after Xian He.

He didn't know what she wanted.

"The day before yesterday it was that cripple, yesterday it was Xiao Kuang, and today it's this bitch. I just want to complete my assassination mission, why are so many people coming out to mess things up!" Xiao Hou clenched the dagger in his sleeve tightly, appearing calm as he glided past the two of them.

He turned into the small alley ahead and silently observed the two.

He had lived in that dilapidated house long enough; he had to complete the mission today!

On the street, Xian He stood with his arms crossed, nodding slightly as he sized up the woman following him.

"Who are you? Why are you following me?" Xian He asked gruffly. He didn't recognize the woman in front of him; he had never seen her before.

"My name is Zheng Yue, Chen Jingjing's cousin. I heard she's at your place, may I see her?" the woman said unhurriedly.

"No!" Xian He refused outright. He wouldn't bring any woman of unknown identity into the Inner World. What if she was a bad person and had ulterior motives towards his wife and children?

The highest cultivation level of the people in the Inner World was only Azure Obsidian three-star, while this woman in front of him was a Yellow Radiance grade Martial Artist, and she was carrying two Japanese swords. Letting her into the Inner World would be like releasing a tiger into a flock of sheep.

It would be too late to regret it after a tragedy occurred.

Zheng Yue sneered, unfastened her money pouch from her waist, and thrust it towards Xian He, saying haughtily, "Don't you just want money? Here are fifteen hundred Copper Coins, enough for you to buy another beautiful female slave. Hurry up and return Chen Jingjing to me!"

She had just returned from hunting in the Endless Jungle below the mountain. Upon hearing from her family that her uncle-in-law, Chen Zhou, had been killed by Greedy Wolf, she rushed over immediately and found that the Chen family's house was already empty.

She was the captain of the Mystic Moon Hunting Team. Using her connections and network, she quickly found out that Chen Jingjing had been bought by a man named Xian He at the slave market.

Before her mother passed away, she had instructed Zheng Yue to take good care of her cousin. Therefore, she absolutely would not allow Chen Jingjing to become a lowly slave, a plaything for men's pleasure.

"Chen Jingjing is already my woman now. No matter how much money you offer, I won't give her back to you." Xian He did not take the woman's money. "However, if you can prove you are Chen Jingjing's cousin, I can let you see her."

Fifteen hundred Copper Coins? Even fifteen thousand Copper Coins wouldn't be enough!

Besides being his woman, Chen Jingjing was also responsible for the important task of midwifery.

Without her, once Grandma Chen breathes her last, his children's births would not be guaranteed to go smoothly.

Zheng Yue frowned, put away her money pouch, and placed her slender hands on the hilts of her swords, threatening coldly, "Don't refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit! Return Chen Jingjing to me immediately, or I'll cut off your ears!"

"Brother Xiao Kuang!" Xian He suddenly called out.

Zheng Yue looked back but didn't see Xiao Kuang.

When she turned back, Xian He had already fled.

"Bastard! You dare to trick me!" Zheng Yue was furious, her face flushed red. She took off with her long legs, chasing after him like an agile female leopard.

The two left quickly, one after the other, leaving Xiao Hou in the alley bewildered.

He wanted to chase, but he was afraid of attracting the attention of the public security patrol, so he could only walk slowly.

In the blink of an eye, the two had disappeared at the end of the street, leaving no trace.

"Tomorrow after tomorrow, how many tomorrows there are?" Xiao Hou sighed, resigning himself to assassinating tomorrow.

"Bastard! Come out!" Zheng Yue shouted at the entrance of the congee stall.

She had personally seen Xian He disappear nearby and was sure he had hidden inside the congee stall.

Old Man Yun, with his golden eyebrows furrowed, walked out and reprimanded her unhappily, "Who are you calling a bastard? Try saying it again?"

"I'm calling for Xian He, tell him to come out!" Zheng Yue replied in a sweet voice.

Xian He?

Didn't that brat go to participate in the Azure Light Competition? How did he manage to provoke this shrew Zheng Yue?

Old Man Yun blinked his blue old eyes and said gruffly, "You've come to the wrong place. Xian He isn't here."

Zheng Yue was the only Yellow Radiance grade female warrior in the Sky Fortune Tribe, leading a hunting team composed entirely of women—the Mystic Moon Hunting Team.

She had a violent and fierce temper, and was best at dismembering her prey. No one in the tribe dared to provoke her; even Xiao Kuang avoided her.

However, she spent most of her time hunting in the Endless Jungle and rarely stayed in the Sky Fortune Tribe. She shouldn't have had any dealings with Xian He, a shut-in.
