“I hope you keep your word and don’t ruin my plan!” the man in the white tiger mask said.

Yu Baifeng nodded and made another promise before getting up to leave.

After leaving the house, Yu Baifeng was at a loss.

The bits and pieces of her interactions with Third Master Xue surfaced in her mind, making her smile.

As she smiled, Yu Baifeng realized something and her expression darkened.

No, she couldn’t go on like this!

From now on, she would have nothing to do with Third Master Xue!

If Third Master Xue dared to chase after her again, she would definitely kill him.

On Shatai Village’s side, everything went smoothly.

The women in the underground passage were all brought out.

In addition to the women Li Xiaoran and the others had encountered previously, there were also a few women locked up in a few other pits.

After these women were brought back to the village, Li Xiaoran counted carefully. There were actually more than 30 people.

However, half of the thirty-odd people were actually on the verge of death.

After Zi Zheng took their pulses one by one, his expression turned solemn.

“Mr. Luo, Consort, these people have been tortured too much. It’s already a miracle that they survived until now. At this moment, even the medicine stone is useless!”

When Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran heard this, they felt upset.

Originally, they could have had normal lives and lived until they were in their sixties or seventies.

However, because of those ruthless men in Shatai Village, they were about to lose their lives at such a young age.

“Benefactors, you don’t have to feel sad. It’s already a blessing from the heavens that we can see those evil people who tortured us being brought to justice before we die! We’ve suffered so much in this life. In the next life, the heavens let us live a good life! Therefore, our wish has been fulfilled and we have nothing to worry about anymore! ” The woman who was the most seriously injured suddenly perked up and looked at Luo Cheng and the others as she thanked them.

Li Xiaoran felt very upset. She wanted to comfort her, but she didn’t know what to say.

In the end, Li Xiaoran said, “Hold on a little longer and watch as the evil people of Shata Village are interrogated, sentenced, and beheaded. You have to see it with your own eyes!”

This was because Li Xiaoran knew that this was probably the thing these people cared about the most.

“No, I might not be able to wait until that day! But I believe that you guys will definitely bring the bad guys to justice!”

With that, the woman slowly closed her eyes with a relieved smile…

Li Xiaoran could no longer sense the other party’s emotions and anger. At this moment, a tear fell from the corner of her eye.

The woman who had suffered so much was finally free.

Over the next night, many women who had been saved passed away one after another.

Li Xiaoran was already so saddened that she couldn’t speak. She could only try her best to settle their funerals.

However, during the burial, Li Xiaoran suddenly changed her mind and carried the corpses of these women to the cliff far away from Shatai Village.

Li Xiaoran burned the corpses of the women to ashes.

“In this life, you were trapped in that tunnel by the animals of Shatai Village and died from torture. Now that I’ve burned your bodies and turned them into ashes, I’ll send you off with the mountain breeze. I hope you’ll be free from now on and in your next life, you’ll grow up freely and live a peaceful life!” Li Xiaoran watched as the wind blew away the ashes.

Shu Ruyue also said, “Burn it and leave cleanly, so you guys can reincarnate cleanly! Sisters, have a safe journey! If there’s a next life, I hope you’ll be safe and happy!”

After sending off these pitiful people, Li Xiaoran’s eyes were red when she returned to Shatai Village.

Thinking of the remaining ten women, Li Xiaoran forced herself to stay awake.

Li Xiaoran went to the house where the group of women were recuperating and asked, “After you recover, what do you plan to do in the future?”

At this moment, the ten women looked at each other, but no one spoke.

After Li Xiaoran thought for a moment, she said, “Since none of you are willing to say it, I’ll give you two choices. If you’re sure that your family can accept you and take good care of you, we’ll send you back safely. If you’re unwilling to go home and want to change your identity and live a new life, I can send you away and let you start a new life!”

One of the bold women asked when she heard Li Xiaoran’s words,

” Consort, let me ask you a question. If we want to start over incognito, where will we be sent? As weak women, we don’t have any skills. Now that we’ve experienced such a thing, can we protect ourselves and live a peaceful life?”

When Li Xiaoran heard this woman’s words, she thought for a moment and said, “If you want to get married, I’ll send you far away from your hometown and let you find a good family to start over. However, you should also know that the good family I’m talking about won’t be very rich. I can only guarantee that you won’t lack food and clothing. If you’re unwilling to get married, you can work in the farmstead under Mr. Luo and me to earn money. The people in the farmstead are all soldiers who retreated from the battlefield. They won’t bully you. You guys can live your lives in peace!”

Li Xiaoran’s words tempted several women.

“Why don’t you think about it carefully and tell me your decision after you figure it out?! I won’t send you away before your injuries heal!”

Hearing Li Xiaoran’s words, the group of women heaved a sigh of relief.

After coming out of the house, Li Xiaoran didn’t speak.

“Xiaoran, what do you think they’ll choose?”

Li Xiaoran said, “Most of them will choose to let us send them home! After they go home, families with means will definitely make new arrangements for them. If they want to live a new life incognito, it’s better than relying on us. People with nowhere to go might choose the last two paths! As for which one they will choose, I can’t guess! Anyway, their lives are their own. After making a choice, they have to be responsible for their own lives!”

As expected, after another three days, seven people with light injuries had already recovered after a few days of treatment.

All seven women chose to be sent home.

After Li Xiaoran found out about their choice, she left this matter to Zi Zheng to deal with.

The remaining four women also made their own decisions..
