Chapter 53 — Good, good future prospects!
Prodigiously Amazing Weaponsmith
In the eyes of the guard regiment, Huang Yue Li no longer possessed the appearance of a pitiful young girl. She was now the most terrifying, most steel-hearted demoness!
What expert at the Seventh Level of the Qi Profound Realm? Iron blooded soldiers molded through countless battles on the battlefield, was not enough to make her bat a single eye.
Even though she did not have any profound qi, dealing with them was a such a simple task!
How was this the cowardly, weak and gutless good-for-nothing Third Young Miss?
Smiling, Huang Yue Li swept her eyes over the ground. Those who felt her gaze sweep past them felt their bodies turn cold. Their groans softening instantly.
Huang Yue Li chuckled: âHonestly, I know that youâre merely obeying orders as a subordinate should. My Second Uncle sent you over, you dare not to disobey. This really cannot be blamed on you.â
Eyes widening in disbelief, they didnât dare to believe what they were hearing. The Third Young Miss who was that cruel, would suddenly change her attitude and become this understanding.
Unaffected, Huang Yue Li continued in a sweet voice: âEveryone here is without freedom. I am not something who wonât feel pity, so I will go with you to the Manor then!â
They didnât dare to believe their eyes.
Eyes brimming with tears, the commander said emotionally: âThirdâ¦â¦Third Young Miss, you are reallyâ¦â¦â¦too good. A great person possesses a great heart. You truly are the Old Manor Lordâs daughter. This subordinateâ¦â¦this subordinate had offended you previously. I deserve to die ten thousand times, deserve to die ten thousand times!â
As he said this, he began to give himself a few slaps.
Just then, he was anxious as to how he would explain to the Manor Lod.
Would he really have to say the truth. That his entire squad was easily dealt with by the Third Miss? Not only would this be extremely embarrassing, no one would believe such a thing ah!
Furthermore, the Manor Lord had always treated servants harshly. If he was unable to complete such a simple task, he would really suffer!
Who knew that the Third Young Miss would suddenly change her attitude and think about them. She clearly knew that the Manor Lord didnât have good intentions but still chose to go with themâ¦â¦what type of conscious did she have? It was as great as a goddess!
The little phoenix who was hiding within Huang Yue Liâs shoulder, let out a few coughs in shock and slapped his wing.
Ai, he really worried for the intelligence of those people. How could this female demon be this kind? If that happened, the sun would be rising from the west!
As expected, Huang Yue Li quickly followed with: âBut, you people have polluted the environment here, scared my poor maid and activated my secret mechanisms. These lossesâ¦â¦you must pay for them!â
Stunned for a moment, the commander quickly recovered and answered: âYes, yes, yes. This ought to be, ought to be! Third Young Miss is a great person with a great heart, this subordinate cannot thank you enough. Compensating you is something that should naturally be doneâ¦â¦â
Cheep! Cheep!
Another unlucky victim was bornâ¦â¦â¦
Scratching his ear, the little phoenix couldnât bear to watch this farce any longer. Tucking his head under his wing, he averted his attention.
Huang Yue Liâs smile was especially benevolent: âLord Commander truly understands well! Good, good future prospects! This Miss just loves to speak with smart people like you! Since it is like this, I will give you a twenty percent discount. Each person pay out four hundred silvers and I will go with you!â
ââ¦â¦â¦Wha? How much?â
âFour hundred silvers. This isnât expensive, no?â
âNotâ¦â¦â¦â¦expensiveâ¦â¦â¦âwould be strange!
The whites of the commanderâs eyes appeared; he narrowly avoided passing out.
As for the soldiers pinned to the iron thorns, their legs long stiff while some had fainted.
Trembling, the commander asked: âThird Third Thirdâ¦â¦â¦â¦Third Young Miss, did you make a mistake somewhere?â
Huang Yue Li blinked a few times: âMistake? Are you saying that I am so simple minded that I fail to calculate money correctly?â
âNo noâ¦â¦â¦not true. Third Young Miss, this wasnât this subordinateâs meaning. Ratherâ¦â¦this this, four hundred silversâ¦â¦â¦â¦isnât that a bit too much? And itâs four hundred for every person. Adding them together, wouldnât that be a total of four thousand?â
