Su Binglan also realized something was wrong and immediately sat up. Then she said with a severe expression, “Did something happen?”

Wei Yings voice sounded outside the door, “Master, I have an urgent matter to report!

Luo Jin’an looked at Su Binglan, and she understood his gaze. She quickly put on her coat and said, “Let him in.’

“Come in and report,” Luo Jin’an said solemnly.

When Wei Ying entered, he bowed and said respectfully, “Master, we’ve just received news that bandits attacked our people in Apricot Mountain Village.

Many of our people are injured. Wei Liu told me that the situation is serious.”

‘Since Wei Liu reported it, it must be true.’

Luo Jin’an’s gaze darkened as he emitted a dangerous aura.

Even Wei Ying could feel his master’s intense pressure and killing intent. His entire body shook, and images of his master skillfully killing on the battlefield flashed through his mind.

‘Let the enemy fear my master. That’s the master Pr-n familiar with.’ “Do you know where those bandits came from?” Luo Jin’an asked slowly. “I don’t know, Master. They appeared too suddenly. The bandits only robbed in the past and didn’t kill indiscriminately. But this time, the bandits appeared in the middle of the night and went on a murderous rampage.

“They had already killed several people when Wei Liu found out. Also, those bandits possess formidable martial arts skills.”

Su Binglan’s eyes glinted with coldness, and killing intent enveloped her body as she listened to Wei Ying. She asked, “If that’s the case, is someone reputable in the martial arts world involved?”

Luo Jin’an replied with a frown, “It’s highly likely that they’re from Beishao or assassins the Hong family hired.”

Although Su Binglan and her men had destroyed the Pavilion of Assassins, there were still many forces around. These bandits might have been working for someone, or someone had bribed them to do their bidding.

“I’ll take people there to help.” Su Binglan knew that time was tight and that she had to leave quickly.

“If I’m not mistaken,” Luo Jin’an pulled her back and said, “Those people’s purpose is to lure me out. They must’ve planned an ambush. You can take that risk.

His expression was severe when he spoke. He held his wife’s hand tightly, not allowing her to move. He feared she would run away if he were not careful.

Su Binglan said, “But you have too many subordinates there.”

She knew her husband had asked his people to split up. Of course, they often communicated, even though they lived in different places. They were also survivors of the war from three years ago, and Luo Jin’an valued their lives very much. He would blame himself if he could not save them.

Su Binglan did not even need to think to guess. That was why she wanted to help him save his subordinates.

Luo Jin’an patted the back of her hand and said coldly, “We can lure them away and kill them with a borrowed knife.”

Su Binglan had previously told Luo Jin’an about the 36 stratagems, and that was one of them. Luo Jin’an was shocked when he learned about the 36 stratagems.

Although he often strategized in battle, those strategies were unorthodox, meaning none of his methods had been summarized. However, the 36 stratagems were.

Wei Ying understood his master’s meaning while Luo Jin’an took out a map. Then he drew a circle on a hill and said, “The bandits here are pretty formidable in this area. There are also many capable people here.

“The bandits typically and exclusively rob wealthy merchants and rarely harm the people. Bring some men disguised as them and act according to our previous plan.”

“Yes, Master,” Wei Ying said calmly, “However, will anyone try to harm you once we leave your side?”

“Tell me your plan, and I’ll do it. You guys can stay here and protect Jin’an.” Their current position was safe, and Su Binglan knew her own combat abilities. She wanted to help her husband eliminate these enemies.

‘No matter which force comes, I must deal with them. They should prepare to die if they dare to kill any member of the Wei family’s army.’

Su Binglan’s eyes were ice-cold at this moment. Still, Luo Jin’an did not want to let her take such a risk.

Su Binglan looked at him and said, “Trust me.”

Her words were so heavy that Luo Jin’an could say nothing else. He knew she would figure out how to sneak off if he did not let her go.

“Let’s go together,” Luo Jin’an said.

Su Binglan furrowed her eyebrows. “You can’t use force and endanger yourself.”

“Will my life be in danger if I use force with you by my side?” Luo Jin’an asked.

“It won’t.” Su Binglan could save him in time, but it would be excruciating for Luo Jin’an if the cold poison acted up. After all, he would trigger the cold poison again whenever he used martial arts.

Then it would be arduous for him to use force. Luo Jin’an held his wife’s hand and said, “Trust me.’

A few minutes later, Luo Jin’an and Su Binglan prepared to leave with Wei Ying and the others. Then they headed to Apricot Mountain Village. Since the village was far off, they had to ride horses.

Fortunately, Luo Jin’an and the other Weis had their hidden warhorses in the valley. Luo Jin’an had made preparations from the beginning, including war horses.

When a horse named Falling Snow came out, Su Binglan was shocked. She had named that horse when she was Lan Ruobing. Everyone said Falling Snow had spiritual powers.

The horse was powerful, and no one else could ride it except Luo Jin’an. On the battlefield three years ago, Falling Snow used its sensitive reaction and extreme speed to save Wei Jin’an.

Luo Jin’an treasured Falling Snow very much. Of course, Falling Snow did not allow anyone to touch it except Luo Jin’an. However, it immediately ran toward Su Binglan when it came out.

Then it lowered her head for Su Binglan to pat it. Su Binglan became misty-eyed when she saw Falling Snow.

Everyone was stunned when they saw Su Binglan and Falling Snow’s interaction. The horse seemed to know the young lady and wanted her to pet it. Usually, it would not allow anyone to touch her.

Luo Jin’an said, “Yes, that’s Falling Snow. She was the one that saved me back then when I was severely injured. I had Wei Cheng and the others care for her for the past three years. Her injuries have recovered well too.”

“That’s good.” Su Binglan nodded while rubbing her head against Falling Snow’s head. She felt all of Falling Snow’s emotions at that moment and seemed to sense images of the war three years ago.

Su Binglan felt bitter, and her eyes turned red as she gently patted Falling Snow’s head and said, “We’ll avenge them, girl..”
