Chapter 320 The Three Siblings
Wang Ying was in excruciating pain, suffering both physically and mentally. Her proud invulnerability to swords and spears was broken twice in two days.

The first time was when Lin Jiu, that Taoist priest, used blood to draw blood and break it open.

The second time was now, when she was actually broken through with a pistol. She was like a person wearing iron, able to withstand being slashed and stabbed, but the bullet hit her with tremendous force, penetrating straight into her internal organs.

She never expected that this young man would be so strong.

Li Xuan slowly raised his longsword, preparing to behead Wang Ying and send her soul to Fengdu. No matter what her reasons were, once she started using evil magic to kill the innocent, there was no cure and she had to die!
Wang Ying could feel the killing intent, which was as real as a physical entity. She braced herself with her hands on the ground and slammed her forehead against the ground, causing it to bleed profusely.

With a sob in her voice, she pleaded, "Master, master, it's not that I'm afraid of death, it's just that I have unfulfilled wishes. Please let me see Wild Boar and Eagle Head one last time. I brought them out of our hometown, and it's all my fault that they've ended up like this."

The familiar words made Li Xuan feel as if he had returned to the morning.

Maoshan Ming also said something similar, about how he brought Dabao and Xiaobao out of the countryside.

The sun had already set, and the wind on the mountaintop was slowly becoming cold and biting. Wang Ying lay on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly: "I won't run away. Please let me take one last look. With your strength, if I wanted to run away, you could skin me alive, dismember me, and scatter my soul."

Li Xuan touched the purplish-red gourd at his waist, and with a flick of his longsword, it transformed into a ring.

Wang Ying was surprised again. When she followed Li Xuan out, he was not carrying any weapons. Where did he draw such a long sword from? It wasn't a telescopic sword. Where is it hidden now?

The unknown amplifies the fear in people's hearts.

The mystery surrounding Li Xuan made Wang Ying feel that he was unfathomable. She forcibly suppressed the restless thoughts in her heart and dared not gamble on even the slightest possibility.

Amidst the howling mountain winds.

Li Xuan used a tree branch to draw a cross on a flat spot on the hilltop, then walked down the mountain: "Come with me, it's about time. I'll take the three of you together, so you'll have someone to talk to on the way."

Wang Ying's heart skipped a beat, and she lowered her head as she got up: "Okay."

She followed behind, looking at Li Xuan's unguarded back, her hands unconsciously opening and closing, itching to do something.

Li Xuan didn't turn around and calmly said, "If we launch a sneak attack, we can't see them."

He didn't even say what he would do to Wang Ying, and these bland words instantly made Wang Ying feel as if she were in an ice cellar.

The two descended the mountain one after the other. When they reached Baiyun Village, the gatekeeper was shocked to see Wang Ying and hurriedly took out his horn to sound the alarm!
The security team filed out, carrying torches. Uncle Jiu, Ah De, Ah Shou, Ah Fu, and the limping Ah Qiang were all there.

The efficiency was so fast that it was as if they were hiding in the shadows, ready to be deployed at any time.

In the firelight, Ah Qiang saw Wang Ying behind Li Xuan, and his expression changed drastically. It was as if a dramatic scene had flashed through his mind. He pointed at Li Xuan and exclaimed, "Wow, I never expected you to take advantage of the darkness to..."

Upon hearing Ah-Qiang's opening remarks, Uncle Nine broke out in a cold sweat and slapped him so hard that he spun around three times.

He clasped his hands in a fist and said to Li Xuan, "Judge Li is incredibly capable. He only went out to survey the area and yet he brought back the bandit leader. I, Lin, am truly impressed..."

Ah Qiang's eyes were filled with stars, and he was about to speak when Lin Jiu pointed to the wound on Wang Ying's forehead and the bloodstains on her clothes. Like a commentator, he looked at the security team members and said solemnly, "It seems Judge Li's ruthless methods have made the bandit leader suffer. To make him come back on his own without being tied up is truly brilliant. Everyone should take this as an example, understand?"

In the dim light, everyone finally saw the injuries on Wang Ying's body and realized that they had initially thought Li Xuan had teamed up with bandits to break into Baiyun Village at night.

They had witnessed Li Xuan's abilities firsthand; he could summon the City God at will. How could they possibly fight against that?

If you accidentally die, you'll face another calamity after death!

That guy named Maoshan Ming, the soil on his grave is still wet...

At this point, Uncle Nine explained, and the security team members applauded, showering him with praise, even wishing him wealth and many children.

Li Xuan: “…”

Standing to the side, Ah Qiang saw how quickly the team members lined up. He hesitated, wanting to speak but holding back, then hesitated again, finally managing to say, "Hehe, I was just trying to liven things up. How could someone as capable as Judge Li possibly collude with bandits to do such a low-class thing?"

Uncle Jiu glanced at Ah Qiang, then looked at Li Xuan and said, "On behalf of the entire Baiyun Village, I would like to thank Judge Li for his great help."

Li Xuan waved his hand and said, "I went out to survey the terrain, looking for a piece of land to build the Fengdu Temple. I was unintentionally followed by this person, and I had to fight a fierce battle to capture him..."

Ah Qiang came over, brandishing a large knife: "Let me avenge the brothers who died in Baiyun Village!"

Uncle Nine grabbed his wrist and said angrily, "What are you doing! Catching a bandit is such a big deal, you should naturally inform the whole village and then execute him publicly. If you just chop him down like this, won't the bandit die quietly?"

Public executions have many benefits: they can put the villagers of Baiyun Village at ease, encourage the wealthy to stay in the village and provide employment opportunities, and the news can deter other bandits!
Anyone who wants to target Baiyun Village should first consider whether they can get past the security team!
At the same time, the village also has a strong sense of cohesion; otherwise, out of fear, everyone would have run away, leaving behind the elderly, weak, sick, and disabled who couldn't escape, and the village would have been quickly wiped out...

Li Xuan said, "She wanted to see the two bandits one last time."

Uncle Nine nodded: "Even if the Qing court beheaded someone, they would at least have a last meal before they were beheaded, or at worst, they would have a steamed bun stuffed in their mouth before they were beheaded. Let her see me if she wants to. As long as we are careful, we should be fine."

Inside Baiyun Residence, Wang Ying was chained and led into the courtyard. She immediately spotted her two younger brothers hanging in the temporary prison cell and quickly called out, "Wild Boar, Eagle Head!"

Wild Boar and Eagle Head had been captured without a drop of water and had been beaten by A-Qiang that afternoon. They were extremely weak at the moment. When they looked up and saw Wang Ying hanging in chains, they immediately became agitated: "You... how did you get captured? Go quickly, don't worry about us!"

The iron gate opened, and Wang Ying was pushed inside. She immediately hugged her two younger brothers, tears streaming down her face: "We've really messed up this time. If we have the chance, let's be siblings again in the next life."

She also fantasized about unleashing her power to save her brother, but Uncle Nine pierced her collarbone with two foot-long steel needles, and now she can only stand up as far as she can go, let alone use magic.

The three siblings were locked up.

As dawn broke and the sky began to lighten, Wang Ying opened her eyes and looked at the wild boar and eagle-headed creature beside her, saying, "At noon, we will be beheaded in the center of the village. Do you still want to go back to your hometown?"

Wild boar and eagle head certainly thought about it. When it was their turn to die, they looked back on their lives, and what they missed most was the days when they played in the mud in their hometown as children.
