With a warehouse full of supplies, I stood alone as king in this chaotic world, gun in hand.

"I brought this back when I went out to buy food this afternoon." Bei Chenyan said to her as he walked to a big tree, intending to put Huo Jing down.

Fu Daniu, being very perceptive, went over to help and helped Huo Jing sit down against a big tree.

"Then let's rest here for a while." Nangong Wu also wanted to check on her father's condition first.

Bei Chenyan also took Huo Jing's pulse, his brows furrowing slightly. "Father-in-law's pulse is weak; he has suffered severe internal injuries."

Father-in-law? Nangong Wu's face immediately darkened. She glared at him, "What are you yelling about?"

Normally, it's fine if he just says he's the child's father, but now he's even calling him "father-in-law"! This is absolutely unacceptable! This can't be said jokingly; the father will misunderstand.

Bei Chenyan slightly curled the corners of his lips, but remained silent.

Nangong Wu took out a small bottle and placed it under Huo Jing's nose.

They needed to wake the people up so they could continue their journey.

A while later, Huo Jingyou woke up.

"Father," Nangong Wu called out.

Huo Jing felt dizzy and confused. In his daze, he heard someone call him "father," but he thought he was hallucinating.

Thinking of his daughter, his chapped lips moved slightly, "Wuwu..."

"Father, I'm here, everything's alright now." Nangong Wu helped him sit up.

Hearing her clear words, Huo Jing's mind cleared considerably. He grabbed Nangong Wu's hand and asked, "Wu Wu, is it really you?"

"Father, it's me." Nangong Wu grasped his hand in return. "You're alright now."

When Huo Jing saw the scar on her face, he was stunned for a moment, but he recognized her as his daughter. He excitedly hugged her tightly, "Wu Wu, my daughter..."

Nangong Wu's eyes also reddened. "Father, I'm so sorry you've suffered. It's all my fault for being useless and only finding you now."

Huo Jing then remembered what had happened earlier and looked up to survey his surroundings.

Bei Chenyan took out a luminous pearl at the right moment so that he could see the surrounding situation clearly.

This is in a forest, not in that dark water dungeon.

"Wuwu, is it you who came to rescue your father?" Huo Jing asked.

"Yes." Nangong Wu helped him up. "Father, we are still at the foot of Qingfeng Village. Let's go back first and then talk."

"Hmm..." Huo Jing suddenly groaned and fell down again.

"Father..." Nangong Wu caught him in her arms.

"Your Highness's leg." Bei Chenyan noticed something was wrong with Huo Jing's leg.

Nangong Wu quickly helped Huo Jing sit up and checked his legs.

"Father, your leg..." Nangong Wu then noticed that her father's right lower leg was broken and looked like it hadn't been treated, bent into a strange shape.

"It was all my fault. I was ambushed that day and was thrown out of the carriage, breaking my leg..." Huo Jing said, both pained and angry.

"Damn Nangong Xun, I'll make him wish he were dead." Nangong Wu clenched her fists.

Now that their father has been rescued, they won't hold back anymore; it's time for them to unleash their killing spree!

"We shouldn't stay here any longer. Let's go back first." Bei Chenyan led the horse over.

"I'll ride one horse with my father," Nangong Wu said.

"That works too." Bei Chenyan knew that the people from Qingfeng Village would catch up soon, and he would have to cover their retreat.

Together with Nangong Wu, he carefully helped Huo Jing onto the horse.

Nangong Wu sat behind her father, supporting him to prevent him from falling.

This time, she walked in front, returning to Jinniu City by the same route, with Fu Daniu following closely on horseback, and Bei Chenyan walking at the very back.

Sure enough, after walking for a short while, several dozen people caught up with them. They were highly skilled in martial arts and used their lightness skills to leap over the treetops.

"Let's finish this quickly." Nangong Wu was about to throw the machine gun to Bei Chenyan when she saw him leap off his horse and start fighting with the men.

"Bang! Bang!!" Two headless corpses crashed down beside them.

Fu Daniu turned pale with fright and covered his mouth tightly with his hand, afraid that he would make a sound.

Seeing that Bei Chenyan was not at a disadvantage, Nangong Wu spurred her horse and rode ahead, shouting, "Hurry up!"

"Huo Jing is right there, hurry and chase after him!" Several people spotted them and leaped after them.

Nangong Wu turned around and fired her machine gun.

"Rat-a-tat-tat-tat..." A burst of flame shot from the muzzle.

Huo Jing was startled by the gunshot and wondered what his daughter was holding, but she was empty-handed.

He rubbed his eyes, looked again and again, but still saw nothing.

That's impossible! I clearly saw that she had a big thing in her hand that was emitting flames.

"Father, please sit down." Nangong Wu helped him sit down, then leaped off her horse to greet the two people who had caught up with her.

These two already knew the power of what she had, and they moved with lightning speed.

Nangong Wu fired several shots but missed. Then, a murderous aura came from behind her. She was attacked from both sides and had no choice but to turn to the left.

"Clang!"

She parried the thrusting blade with her longsword, and at the same time shot out a hidden arrow from her wrist.

"Thud!" The hidden dart struck the eye of the person who had launched the sneak attack.

Another person's sword also stabbed from behind. Nangong Wu did a front flip, barely dodging the incoming sword, and kicked the person in the chin with her flying foot.

She flipped over on the spot and fired another hidden arrow, which struck the man in the shoulder.

"what……"

The two men were injured and tried to run away, but Nangong Wu killed them with two shots.

She may not be good at light footwork, but she's not afraid of anyone in real combat.

She looked at the dozen or so corpses on the ground, then mentally collected them all into her spatial dimension, along with the fallen bullet casings.

These people all have her bullets in them; they can't stay here.

She looked towards Bei Chenyan and saw that he had also finished killing the last person, landed on the ground, and quickly walked up to her.

"Nangong Wu, how are you? Those bastards didn't hurt you, did they?"

"I'm fine, they've all run away." Nangong Wu looked at his worried eyes, as if he was really concerned about her.

"They ran away?" Bei Chenyan looked puzzled. He had only glanced at her briefly and clearly saw several people lying on the ground.

He looked at the ground and saw that there was no one there, but there were several pools of blood.

"Damn it, they got away!"

"Let's hurry! Otherwise, someone will catch up with us again." Nangong Wu walked back to the horses.

She saw that Huo Jing was lying face down on the horse's back, looking like he was very uncomfortable.

"Father, are you feeling unwell?" she asked worriedly.

"My stomach feels a little uncomfortable..." Huo Jing was sweating profusely.

Actually, he felt unwell all over; his whole body ached, and he was dizzy and lightheaded. He had been forcing himself to stay awake the whole time.

"Then please have some water first." She handed him a water bag. "I'll give you a proper check-up when we get back to Taurus City."

The person was locked in a water dungeon and fell unconscious. It was unknown how long it had been since they had drunk water or eaten.

Huo Jing took the water pouch, took a sip, and discovered that it contained warm milk.

After drinking that mouthful of warm milk, I realized how hungry I was. I drank several more mouthfuls and felt a bit more energy back.
