Chapter 280: Brother Parrot is Rescued (7)_1
As she passed the mountain where Tianjizi had launched his attack, she saw his subordinates still laughing uproariously. They were dancing with joy on the outside, but their faces showed unmistakable signs of profound pain. They couldn’t stop themselves.
These followers of the tyrant deserved to die, there was no need for Cai Wei to pity them. She sprinted down the mountain along the trail, her wide Taoist robe billowing in the wind and making a ’huhuhuala’ sound. As she ran, she prayed inwardly, hoping no innocent villagers would come across the cursed men.
When she returned to the village, it was in complete chaos, heavy with the scent of despair.
The ’Rolling Earth Dragon’ the night before had claimed the lives of four or five villagers. Many more were injured, some severely. The unexpected disaster had left the poor villagers devastated. They screamed and wailed, cursing the heavens and the earth.
Cai Wei searched the entire village but couldn’t find Tianjizi’s head. She was baffled.
At this point, a cold voice rang out, "Miss Mu, where is our Master?"
Cai Wei turned around to see Luo Xue, her expression as cold as ever. With a dismissive laugh, Cai Wei replied, "Didn’t your Master order you to treat the wounded? How come you have time to ask about our Master’s whereabouts? Or are you dissatisfied with your Master’s orders and deliberately slacking off here?"
Luo Xue sneered, "Miss is very eloquent, no wonder you have won our Master’s favor. But I have a reminder for you. The Empress Dowager has already found out about you seducing our Master and instigating him to fight Tianjizi. If our Master comes out unscathed, it’s fine. If not, you and your whole family will be beheaded. I wonder if you’ll be able to be as sweet-tongued and glib then?"
Cai Wei listened, giggling quietly, and said lazily, "I believe that the person who most wants to behead me is not the Empress Dowager, but you, right? I find it strange, I didn’t dig up your family’s grave or kill your whole family. Where does this deep grudge against me come from? You want to kill me, not only that, but you also want to kill my entire family. You are really ruthless!"
