We have all the space treasury in hand, so mere exile is nothing.

"Okay, let's arrange it this way."

After seeing Ye Qingran agree, Chu Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief.

He was really afraid that Ye Qingran would go too far alone. Even though he knew that she knew martial arts and had the ability to protect herself, he just didn't feel at ease.

Ye Zhuoyu is still with her at home, which may provide her with more protection anyway, and most of the other times he is by her side and can protect her.

Perhaps because of this, he was used to being around her and wanted to make up for the trouble Ying Yi had caused her.

After arranging everything at the medical center, they set out early the next morning.

They rented a carriage and headed all the way to Lianhua Village.

They were faster because the medical center had a lot of things to do and they didn't have much time to stay outside. They were also worried that the gangsters would come to the medical center to cause trouble. Ying Yi's injury was not healed yet. If there were too many people on the other side, he might Will be defeated.

Lianhua Village was still some distance away from the medical center. Ye Qingran was too slow, so he asked Chu Qingyun to take her over the top of several hills using Qinggong, which shortened the distance a lot.

They rarely stopped in towns on the way, mostly resting in some hidden places.

"Let's eat something first."

The two stopped and sat down on a stone on one side. Ye Qingran took out some food and water bags and handed them to Chu Qingyun.

They had just taken two bites when they heard footsteps around them. There were quite a few people hearing this movement. They immediately became vigilant, stood up and entered a defensive posture back to back.

There was too much vegetation around this place, and they couldn't tell the specific direction of the coming person, so it was difficult to find a place to hide, so they had to fight head-on.

After a while, a few big men emerged from behind the tree on the right. Most of them had stab wounds on their bodies and came forward with sticks in their hands.

When they saw Ye Qingran and Chu Qingyun's clothing and number of people, their eyes suddenly lit up. The leader said: "Brothers, there are only two of them, and they seem to be very rich. Now we can make a fortune. "

After saying that, he looked at Ye Qingran with a smile and said, "Hey, this little girl is pretty good, why don't you take her back and give her to the men to play with."

When he talked about money, Chu Qingyun still looked at them coldly, wanting to wait and see how many people there were. But when he heard them talking about frivolous Ye Qingran, he couldn't help it anymore and directly pulled out the long sword from his waist and slashed his neck.

The man didn't even react. He stared at his neck and touched his neck, but he only touched blood on his hand.

Then he felt the pain, took a few steps back in horror, fell to his knees and covered his neck, trying to stop the bleeding.

It's a pity that Chu Qingyun was the one who killed him with one blow. Blood gurgled out of his mouth, flowed down from the corner of his mouth, and mixed with the blood on his neck. After that, he became silent.

When the bandits on the side saw this scene, not only were they not afraid, but they rushed forward angrily, wanting to avenge their brothers.

Chu Qingyun stopped Ye Qingran who was about to take action. He stepped forward and used his sword skills to shuttle through the crowd.

This was the first time Ye Qingran saw him use his sword moves completely, so he couldn't help but find a safe place to watch intently.

His sword was very fast, so fast that people couldn't see how he moved it.

Although those bandits licked blood from the tips of their knives every day, their martial arts were not very good. They relied on their brute strength and fearlessness to fight with others. They were not at the same level as those with strong martial arts skills like Chu Qingyun.

Under Chu Qingyun's sword, most of them died.

There were bloodstains on the ground, and the smell of blood was so strong that it probably wouldn't go away for a few days.

The remaining bandits were all seriously injured, and even if they were not dead, they were close to death.

After Chu Qingyun shook off the blood stained on the sword, he sheathed the sword.

He looked at them condescendingly: "Life is hard, you can make a living, but it is your fault to hurt innocent passers-by. This is not the first time I have seen you. There are many people who have died at your hands. Today I am a substitute for God." You who follow the Way, go in peace."

After saying that, he turned around to find Ye Qingran and pulled her away from here.

"You look angry?" Ye Qingran suddenly said.

Chu Qingyun paused: "Why do you ask that?"

Ye Qingran tilted her head and looked at him: "Because I have never seen you kill someone like this before. Today is different."

In response to her question, Chu Qingyun did not answer. After a moment of silence, he said again: "It's just because I promised to protect you, so I can't let you get hurt at all."

"Is that all?"

"..."

He still didn't answer directly.

Originally, Ye Qingran just wanted to tease him, but he didn't expect that he looked a little embarrassed, so he couldn't continue.

She had always thought that Chu Qingyun was a somewhat dandy kid from an aristocratic family. Ever since she found out that he was King Xiaoyao, her impression of him had changed a bit.

Being born into an imperial family, it is not easy to have such a cheerful temperament, but I don’t know how he managed to survive these years.

After some more days on the road, they returned to Lianhua Village.

Now Lianhua Village is almost back to what it was before they arrived. They are just living off the wages from Ye Qing's hair dyeing, and there is some improved soil for farming, so that they will not go back to their old business of human trafficking.

People in the village were still talking about them when they saw them, but they were no longer as resentful as when they first left.

After Ye Qingran left, they remembered how comfortable they were when they could get money every day when Ye Qingran was here. Now that they have no income, they live on the remaining money and the grain in the fields, weaving Bubu could only make clothes for himself, so he began to guess what Ye Qingran was doing when he came back and whether he would help them again.

But they also knew that they had offended Ye Qingran before, and now they couldn't bear to ask, so they could only watch from the side.

Ye Qingran guessed what they were thinking, so he didn't bother to pay attention to them and went straight to Zhao Zhiming's house.

Zhao Zhiming's home was as dilapidated as ever. As soon as they entered the yard, they saw Ye Yunlian struggling to wash clothes.

Ye Qingran frowned slightly and stepped forward and said, "Aren't you still pregnant? Why are you still doing such rough work? Be careful of getting cold."

The weather was very cold now. Ye Yunlian's hands were so cold that they were red in the water, but she didn't dare to stop. After hearing Ye Qingran's voice, she raised her head in surprise.

"Ye Qingran? What are you doing here?"

Her tone was as unkind as ever, and then she grabbed the word "pregnant" again, bit her lip, and said angrily, "Are you here to see my joke? You heard that my child was gone, so you deliberately used this matter to laugh at me. Me, are you ridiculing me? I know it, you bitch!"
