Chapter 254: How Dare They Bully Her Hubby
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
His son-in-law had just gotten into trouble, and there was no one in the house who could take care of things. What if something happened again?
Qin Xiaoyao thought for a while and nodded her head.
“Mm-hmm!” she answered.
With that, she turned around.
Then, with a tap of her feet, she leaped onto the boundary wall.
Everyone in the courtyard was shocked by this display of martial arts skills.
Even after Qin Xiaoyao had disappeared, the crowd was still in a daze.
“Father… when did Younger Sis learn such martial arts?” Qin Dahu asked Qin Dazhuang in surprise.
Qin Erhu also looked at his father quizzically with a face full of surprise.
Such a display of talented skills was not much different from those described by the storytellers.
Qin Dazhuang wiped away the astonishment on his face.
“How would I know? Perhaps she learned it from that mysterious hero?
“Why are you asking this now?
“Listen to your younger sister. You two, hurry back and take care of the household affairs. Don’t let anything happen to our family!” After he finished speaking, Qin Dazhuang reached out and gave his two sons a push.
Earlier, he was still a little worried that his daughter would be in danger when she went to save his son-in-law. Now, after seeing his daughter’s skills, he was much more at ease.
With the help of his daughter’s master, the two of them might really be able to rescue his son-in-law.
Sigh! When everything was over, he would have to ask his daughter what exactly was going on. In addition, he would also have to treat his daughter’s master to a good drink.
Qin Xiaoyao wasn’t aware that her father had imaginatively added so much to the story she made up.
She sped in the direction of the government office like a gust of the wind.
Damn it! Those mountain bandits actually stole her man and even wanted to offer her husband to the mountain bandit leader.
She would not be Qin Xiaoyao if she did not kill them all!
As she was anxious, Qin Xiaoyao arrived at the courtyard of the government office in less than half an hour.
The defensive setup of the government office was much tighter than that of other places.
When she got closer, Qin Xiaoyao saw many armed mountain bandits patrolling back and forth.
However, this wasn’t a problem for Qin Xiaoyao. After waiting for a while, when a group of patrolling bandits had left, Qin Xiaoyao sneaked into the government office.
After that, she crept stealthily and successfully evaded a few patrolling teams before arriving at the back residence of the government office.
Following this, Qin Xiaoyao began to search for her husband.
She had to locate him first and make sure that he was safe before she could think of a way to take him away.
There were many rooms in the backyard of the government office. Qin Xiaoyao checked the situation in the rooms one by one by flipping the roof tiles above the rooms.
In the end, after she had searched all the rooms, she still could not locate Song Que. She had even checked the mountain bandit leader’s location but to no avail.
Feeling a little anxious, Qin Xiaoyao thought that she might as well go and kidnap the mountain bandit leader and force him to tell her where her husband was.
Right at this moment, the mountain bandit leader in the room spoke.
The mountain bandit leader was pacing back and forth with an anxious look.
“Beauty… has my beauty not given in yet?” he asked his subordinate outside.
A moment later, a mountain bandit immediately came forward.
“General, there is no news from the dungeon yet!” He bowed and cupped his fists as he spoke to the mountain bandit leader.
“Hmph! Useless thing!” When the mountain bandit leader heard this, he immediately cursed out loud.
Very soon, the mountain bandit leader added, “No. I have to go and see for myself!”
After he finished speaking, he strode out.
Last night, when he was about to go to sleep, his subordinates suddenly came to report that they had found him a stunning beauty.
With the intention of taking a casual look, he had asked someone to bring the beauty over.
To his surprise, that person was truly a stunning beauty.
With just one look, he knew that he had already set his mind on obtaining that beauty.
Unfortunately, the beauty was stubborn and refused to obey him.
He had only been a little more aggressive, but the beauty had actually threatened to commit suicide.
Helplessly, he sent the beauty to the dungeon.
He just wanted to wear down the beauty’s stubbornness.
However, after he sent the beauty away, he became the one who couldn’t stop worrying.
He didn’t sleep well for the rest of the night, for fear that his men would be too vicious in their methods and really hurt his beauty.
And now, he really couldn’t sit still anymore.
He had to go and meet the beauty and have a good talk with him so that he would leave Mountain Spring Town willingly with him.
Sigh! It was such a pity.
When he had conquered this town, he had really intended to take root here and manage the town well.
He had not expected the Imperial Court’s army to arrive so quickly, and they had sent so many people too.
Since the town was destined to fall, he could only retreat.
Fortunately, he met a beauty before he left.
As long as he could take the beauty away to accompany him for the rest of his life, he would not have attacked the town in vain.
Qin Xiaoyao, who was on the roof, had some conjecture in her heart when she saw this scene.
She had searched the entire back residence of the government office but could not find her husband. However, she had forgotten about the dungeon.
If this mountain bandit leader was really into men, then the “beauty” he was referring to was most likely her husband.
When a certain possibility popped into her mind, Qin Xiaoyao glared at the mountain bandit leader with a gaze filled with immense hostility.
He had better pray that her husband was fine, otherwise…
Without further delay, Qin Xiaoyao tailed the mountain bandit leader as soon as he left.
Very soon, the mountain bandit leader entered the dungeon.
Qin Xiaoyao noticed that there were two guards at the entrance of the dungeon. She knew that it would be difficult to lure them away, so she simply attacked and quickly slit their necks.
After taking down those two, Qin Xiaoyao sneaked into the dungeon.
Then, whenever she discovered guards along the way, she would kill them straight away.
In the end, after following the mountain bandit leader and his men for a while, she finally found Song Que.
Qin Xiaoyao’s face turned downright ominous when she saw that Song Que was locked up in a cell wearing only an unlined shirt and a pair of unlined pants. He was feeling so cold that he was trembling all over.
Damn it! That bastard actually dared to torture her husband like this!
Before the mountain bandit leader could even speak to Song Que, Qin Xiaoyao made her move.
She appeared suddenly like a whirlwind and immediately took control of the head of the subordinate the mountain bandit leader had brought with him.
Then, with a slide of the dagger, she ended his life abruptly.
Immediately after that, under the mountain bandit leader’s shocked gaze, Qin Xiaoyao swiftly attacked him as well.
The mountain bandit leader had some martial arts foundation, so he was able to dodge quickly.
At the same time, he hurriedly shouted, “Men! There’s an assassin!”
Damn it! Where did this expert come from? He actually came for his life!
Qin Xiaoyao furrowed her brows and continued to attack.
However, this time, she did not use any killing moves.
She had no choice. She had not been able to kill him with one blow just now, and this mountain bandit leader had yelled for help.
Now, she could only hold the mountain bandit leader hostage so that she could safely escape with her husband.
The mountain bandit leader dodged again and continued to call for help.
However, because his martial arts ability was no match for Qin Xiaoyao’s, he was soon stabbed by Qin Xiaoyao and fell into her hands.
The mountain bandit leader’s face was filled with fear as he came face to face with the dagger that was pressed against his neck and could slit his throat at any moment.
“Brave hero, please spare my life. If you have any requests, I will agree to them!” he quickly said.
He couldn’t figure out Qin Xiaoyao’s identity at all, so he could only promise the other party some benefits in the hope that he could escape this calamity.
“Hmph!” Qin Xiaoyao merely gave a scornful snort.
At this moment, some mountain bandits finally arrived.
There were quite a number of them, probably twenty to thirty people.
Qin Xiaoyao immediately brought her dagger closer to the mountain bandit leader’s neck..
