Having been rampant in this land for many years, the leader of the Qingyan Gang is not someone to be bullied easily. Looking at the plaque broken into two halves on the ground, he waved his big hand and waved to his brothers to kill him.

Suddenly, the boy in white raised an arm and snapped his slender fingers in the air.

The crisp sound was still echoing in the quiet night sky, and countless arrows were attacking the mountain stronghold from all directions.

The leader of the gang watched as an arrow grazed his body and sank into the ground in front of his feet. His body was shaking so much that he could hardly stand.

Well, how terrible!

He has been fighting and killing for so many years, but he has never seen such a scene.

A group of bandits were forced by the rain of arrows to crawl back into the village without even having time to get the treasures they had just worked so hard to move out.

Lu Yan raised his hand again, and the arrow rain stopped immediately.

He has found out that it was the Qingyan Gang who set fire to the building at the Chinese Valentine's Day Lantern Festival. Lu Yan would naturally not let go of anyone who dared to provoke him.

Normally, when dealing with such a small gang, Lu Yan would not have to show up personally. He would only need to send people to arrest their main leaders and torture them, and he would naturally be able to find out the real purpose behind their actions.

But when he thought of Shen Ruoyan crying loudly on his shoulder that day, Lu Yan didn't want to bypass them so easily.

Lu Yan said to the people around him: "No need to shoot them, just force them back."

He wanted to treat others the way they were treated, and use the same method to retaliate against them, so that they could also experience the feeling of being trapped in a fire, trying to escape but being unable to do so.

The bandits were forced to retreat into their own village. They saw the flames around them burning higher and higher, and people around them screamed in terror from time to time.

Later, some people couldn't bear the scorching flames and began to run towards the entrance of the village. No matter what the cost, they had to escape from the scorching sea of ​​fire. But as soon as they ran to the door, what was waiting for them was ruthless arrows. rain.

A few people who were smarter went around to other exits, but they couldn't escape the baptism of arrows.

Those arrows did not shoot directly at them, but at the less lethal parts. Those who wanted to escape soon covered their bloody arms or dragged them. The injured leg of the arrow retreated.

It was not until the morning light fell that the fire gradually weakened. It was not that the people in the village found a way to extinguish the fire, but that everything that could be burned was basically burned. There was no burning material, so the fire naturally receded slowly.

Amidst the coke and thick smoke, each of the big and thick bandits stood there blankly, or collapsed on the ground in despair. Everyone's head was covered with charred ashes, and several people were burned. The eyebrows, hair, and head became so bald that if you didn't look carefully, you would think they were overcooked eggs.

At this time, the young man's clear voice penetrated from the darkness of the night.

For those bandits who have experienced the fire, this voice is like a feather, tickling their hearts, and their bodies feel numb when they listen to it. However, it is such a pleasant voice, but the words spoken are mixed with... An extremely cold chill.

Lu Yan glanced at the village that was burned to ashes and ordered coldly: "Take all these people back."

When Wei Xu received the news and rushed to the scene, the Qingyan Gang was already in ruins.

Looking at the charred black ruins of the broken wall, Wei Xu felt a drop of cold sweat dripping from his heart.

The Qingyan Gang is a well-known gangster's den in the neighborhood. It can be said to have done many evil things and is notorious. Now that the young master has burned down their hometown, they really deserve it.

However, before the young master lost his memory, he had asked himself to keep an eye on this gang and not to alert others. The reason was that they had been ordered to kidnap Miss Shen.

Now that the young master has no memories, he doesn’t have so much concern. I don’t know how the Qingyan Gang offended the young master. The young master actually burned their old village with fire. But what if the young master regains his memory? I blame myself for not stopping it in the first place and cutting off this clue. What should I do?

Wei Xu walked up to Lu Yan in embarrassment and asked cautiously: "Young Master, why didn't you inform me when you came here? I can arrange for the brothers in the city to pick you up."

Lu Yan was looking coldly at the charred rubble and dust, and when he heard Wei Xu's voice, he slowly turned his gaze back to him.

The young man in white stood in front of a piece of scorched earth, his brows clear and moist, in stark contrast to the devastation behind him.

"It's okay, just on a whim." Lu Yan said calmly, as if he had not burned down a village just now, but made a bonfire.

Whim?

Wei Xu was speechless and could only watch the young master leading a large group of people away in the dust.

When Wei Xu returned to the city, he saw an even more unexpected person at the gate of the city - Shen Ruoyan!

Wei Xu blinked and realized that he had read it correctly. He quickly walked over and asked, "Shen...Miss Shen, why are you back? Are you here with the young master?"

It turned out that Shen Ruoyan heard that Lu Yan led people out of Tianyan Pavilion, and guessed that he had found out that the arson incident was related to the imperial concubine. Fearing that Lu Yan would suffer a loss, Shen Ruoyan asked for leave from Qing Rong and hurried to the capital. Before she entered the city gate, she met Wei Xu.

"Do you know where Lu Yan is now?" Shen Ruoyan's eyes lit up when she saw Wei Xu, and she anxiously asked him about Lu Yan's whereabouts.

Wei Xu scratched his head in confusion, why didn't Miss Shen know the young master's whereabouts?

Could it be that the two had a quarrel?

But it doesn't make sense. Even if the young master loses his memory, how can he be angry with Miss Shen if he is so kind to her?

So Wei Xu told everything he knew.

Shen Ruoyan breathed a sigh of relief when she learned that Lu Yan went back after burning down the Qingyan Gang. Fortunately, he didn't come to the capital, otherwise there would have been another uproar.

But now that they have arrived at the city gate, Shen Ruoyan of course has to go home and take a look.

Walking to the door of Shangshu Mansion, everything still looked familiar.

Shen Ruoyan was about to knock on the door when the door suddenly opened from the inside. Her brother and sister-in-law were holding their mother's hands on the left and right, and seemed to be about to go out.

Seeing Shen Ruoyan standing at the door, Mrs. Shen immediately smashed the basket in her hand to the ground, hugged her daughter whom she hadn't seen for a long time and cried loudly, without caring about the dignity of her noble wife.

Later, when they heard that the eldest lady was back, everyone in the house put down their work and rushed over from all directions.

After Qin'er received the news, Shen Ruoyan was already crowded with people. The little girl tried her best to push away the crowd. When she saw that the lady she had been thinking about day and night was back, she ran over and hugged Shen Ruoyan tightly. Be willing to let go.

Finally, even Mr. Shen who was on duty rushed back.
