Chapter 398: The Commoners’ Fortune

From afar, Su Ying could see the villagers waiting at the entrance of the village.

“Greetings, Your Imperial Highness.”

“Everyone, there’s no need for formalities. Please rise.”

“Your Imperial Highness, you have really put in so much hard work during this period. Your lowly peasants have prepared some wine and dishes to welcome Your Imperial Highness. We hope you will accept them.”

The village chief invited Su Ying to his own home where they had a table set up in the hall.

The table was filled with chicken, duck, fish, and meat dishes. They must have put in a lot of effort.

“Your Imperial Highness, this way please. Please have a seat. Our countryside doesn’t have anything good, so we hope you won’t despise this.”

Su Ying sat down on a stool and looked at the dishes on the table. She smiled and said, “Thank you for your trouble.”

No one present dared to share the food with Su Ying, and Su Ying didn’t force them to do so. She simply told them to eat on their own, and she didn’t need anyone to serve her.

The village chief was also afraid that Su Ying would feel uncomfortable, so he chased everyone from the village out of the house.

After she had eaten her fill, the village chief told his wife to bring Su Ying to a clean guest room for her to rest at night.

“Your Imperial Highness, please make do with this place for one night. If there is anything you need, just let me know. 1 will go and get you some hot water to wash up,” the wife of the village chief said.

“I’ll have to trouble you then.”

After the wife of the village chief left, Su Ying went back to her chair and sat down. She was really exhausted after these past few days. Tonight, she had to circulate her energy properly and replenish her vitality.

The village chief’s wife brought the hot water over and then excused herself.

Su Ying washed up briefly before sitting on the bed with her legs crossed and began to circulate her energy.

As the night deepened, it started to rain outside again.

Pitter-patter! All Su Ying could hear was the sound of raindrops falling on the roof.

The mountain wind blew into the house, bringing with it an air of dampness along with a whiff of… sickly sweet smell.

Su Ying suddenly opened her eyes. The smell of blood!

Su Ying jumped off the bed and made her way to the window with the help of the faint moonlight.

When she looked out of the window, there was nothing but rainwater splashing down.

Su Ying casually picked up a small object in the room and threw it at the courtyard door.

Thud! As the soft sound rang out, Su Ying clearly saw a few figures darting past the crack in the door.

Su Ying turned around and jumped out of the window. She glanced in the direction of the other houses. When she saw that those houses’ doors were still locked, she then silently crept toward the courtyard door.

Just as she hid her herself in the darkness of the night, a dark shadow leaped over the courtyard wall.

These men in black had no idea that Su Ying was hiding behind them.

The men in black quickly made their way to the room where Su Ying was staying. Just as they were about to pry open the door, Su Ying’s chilly voice cut through the rainy night. “Scumbags, your target is over here.”

All the men in black got a shock. They turned around warily and saw Su Ying standing outside in the courtyard.

Their faces became ferocious, and they rushed at her with their swords in hand.

Su Ying leaped out of the courtyard in one bound.

The men in black quickly ran after her when they saw her running away.

Su Ying jumped out of the courtyard and saw a dead dog lying on the ground. The dog’s blood had been washed away by the rain, and the blood mixed with the rainwater to form a small stream on the muddy ground.

Su Ying darted quickly into the bamboo forest nearby and the men in black quickly followed her into that place.

However, after entering the bamboo forest, they didn’t see Su Ying at all.

“I clearly saw her here just now. How did she disappear?”

In the darkness, a hand suddenly landed on the shoulder of one black-robed man.

The black-robed man was startled. He turned around and met Su Ying’s eyes that were filled with iciness.

The black-robed man felt a sharp pain in the back of his neck. Just as he was about to attack, he saw Su Ying tilt her neck a little, and a sharp pain suddenly spread from his neck to his whole body.

When the other black-robed men heard the commotion, they also rushed back.

Su Ying was like a ghost in the dark night, swiftly shuttling back and forth among these people. She didn’t even give them a chance to attack before she disappeared again.

Su Ying’s figure suddenly flashed before their eyes, and in the blink of an eye, she was standing a few meters away from them.

“Kill her!”

The black-robed men snapped out of their daze and were about to rush forward when Su Ying snapped her fingers. All of them froze on the spot, and in an instant, they fell to the ground and began to convulse in pain.

Su Ying watched them icily as she stepped forward and dislocated all their jaws one by one.

“Who’s the leader? Raise your hand.”

The black-robed men wailed in pain, but no one raised his hand.

Su Ying chuckled softly and snapped her fingers again. The black-robed men felt a greater sense of pain. It was as if someone was holding tens of thousands of silver needles and stabbing the needles into their festering wounds over and over again, almost driving them crazy.

“I heard that death warriors are the most tight-lipped. Then I want to see just how tight your lips are.”

Su Ying snapped her fingers several times in a row, and the people on the ground stiffened like corpses. This kind of pain was neuralgia, and even the strongest painkillers was useless. She was really curious to find out how long these people could remain stubborn.

Su Ying took out a timer and watched them quietly.

She wouldn’t let them continue to suffer pain non-stop. Instead, she would give them a breather when they were about to reach their limits, and after that, restart the pain.

After repeating this several times, someone finally couldn’t take it anymore and raised his hand stiffly.

Su Ying walked to him and grabbed him up. Then she pulled him to the side to repair his dislocated jaw and dig out the poison pill from his mouth.

“Who sent you guys?”

The black-robed man’s eyes were bloodshot, and his gaze toward Su Ying was filled with fear. “We… we are… we are from the Red Demon Sect. We… we have accepted someone’s money to take your life.”

Su Ying’s dark eyes narrowed. “Red Demon Sect again.

“Where is your leader?”

“I… I don’t know. Sect Master’s whereabouts are unpredictable. Even when we receive missions, we get them through eagle messengers.”

“Have you seen him before?”

“I’ve never seen his true face. Sect Master always wears a mask, so no one knows his real appearance.”

“Then how do you guys usually contact him?”

“By eagle messengers. Once the mission is completed, we will send a letter to the sect master by eagle.”

“Where’s the eagle?”

The black-robed man looked at Su Ying. He did not understand why she wanted the eagle. Could it be that she could follow the eagle to look for the Sect Master?

He took out a whistle from his pocket and blew on it. Before long, a male eagle flew toward them across the sky.

Su Ying picked up a tree branch from the ground and extended it. She then made the black-robed man blow the whistle again.

That male eagle flew over and landed firmly on the tree branch in Su Ying’s hand.

At first glance, this eagle was half the height of a human.

Su Ying grabbed the male eagle in one move and kicked the black-robed man to render him unconscious. Thereafter, she stored the male eagle in her interspatial store.

She would settle the matter of the Red Demon Sect after she dealt with the Jing Prefecture dam.

Su Ying took out ropes from her interspatial store and tied up all the black-robed men. Then she waited for the secret guards to come and take care of them.

“Oof! Oof! Oof!”

The sky turned bright, and the people in the village woke up one after another.

After waking up, the village chief carefully approached Su Ying’s room. He wanted to check if she had woken up. To his surprise, Su Ying’s door was ajar, and when he looked through the crack in the door, there was no one in the room.

The village chief pushed open the door and walked in. He saw a lot of copper and silver coins on the table, and there was even a note left.

The village chief was educated. After reading the contents of the note, his eyes turned red-rimmed.

“It is truly the commoners’ fortune to have such an Empress..”
