The two of them ran for their lives, though they didn’t know how long they’d been running for. The sun was overwhelmingly bright, making faces uncomfortably hot, and after a while they got hungry. Xiao Qian dragged Shi Yu into the bushes and opened up the package, revealing roast chicken and steamed buns.

“Boss Qian, why do I feel like something is wrong?” Shi Yu asked Xiao Qian between bites of roast chicken.

I also feel something is strange… Was the mountain path this difficult when we were coming?”

Xiao Qian tried hard to remember. They had arrived by car, so the road shouldn’t have been this hard to navigate. So why was the road now filled with puddles and rocks?

And after all this running, everything was too quiet. Had nobody come chasing after them?

Unbeknownst to Xiao Qian and Shi Yu, they had taken the wrong path.

There were two routes from the village entrance. One was the easier path that they had taken before. The other was the path towards the “Golden Pig,” a route Shi Yu had suggested the human trafficker take. This second path was fraught with landslides and was extremely difficult to travel.

“Forget it, let’s eat quickly. We’ve been running for so long. I feel like I’ve dried out completely. I forgot to bring a water bottle,” said Shi Yu, who only had the roast chicken and steamed buns.

“I have water. Do you want some?” A sudden voice rang out, causing the hairs on Xiao Qian and Shi Yu to stand on end.

A grubby, sleazy man not far from them, covered in soil and dust, stood still.

He was one of the kidnappers. The one who was the co-pilot!

Yesterday, following Shi Yu’s instructions, the Big Baldy, the leader of the traffickers, had chosen this path, but their vehicle had overturned halfway down the path. They didn’t find the Golden Pig, and Da Mei was critically injured and immobilized. The sleazy man and the Big Baldy had spent a day and a night in freezing hunger and almost died on the spot.

Harbouring deep fury against Shi Yu, the Big Baldy and the sleazy man limped towards them for retribution.

But against their expectations, they actually ran into Xiao Qian and Shi Yu, who were close to the village all the while.

These two damned girls, after having fooled them into their injuries, were eating such delicious roast chicken, neither injured nor damaged in any way.

The traffickers wanted to stab a hundred holes in Shi Yu right now. How disgusting!

“Speakyour mind! Don’t get aggressive, remember, I am Huang   ”

Shi Yu tried to use yesterday’s trick again, but it didn’t work on the traffickers who had suffered miserably. She shouldn’t have spoken at all. Her words enraged the traffickers even more, and they attacked her. They almost hit Shi Yu and Xiao Qian!

“Stop pretending to be mysterious! Damn it, I can’t believe I stumbled into trouble in such a place. I’m going to kill you right now!”

The bad guy raised his weapon, aiming at Shi Yu.

There was a loud bang, and Shi Yu and Xiao Qian closed their eyes. But they didn’t feel any pain.

When they opened their eyes, the trafficker’s weapon was on the ground, and he looked horrified.

What had hit him?

Xiao Qian looked around in shock, and suddenly a thought crossed her mind. Could it be… Xuang Qiang had arrived?

Yes, it was Xiao Qiang, her Xiao Qiang!

But the trafficker didn’t know what was happening. All he knew was that his hand was vibrating intensely from the impact and the weapon had fallen from his hand. Just as he tried to move, something whistled through the air, and a bullet hit his leg!

The trafficker immediately knelt in the direction of Shi Yu and Xiao Qian!

He howled in pain. Now, even Shi Yu understood.

It wasn’t that she had somehow developed supernatural abilities. It was that the rescuers had arrived!

Xiao Qian, overjoyed by Yu Minglang’s arrival, suddenly felt a strong force coming from behind. The big bald-headed leader of the traffickers emerged from behind Xiao Qian. He held a knife to Shi Touyu’s neck with one hand and pointed another blade at Xiao Qian’s back with his other hand, shouting into the sky.

“Come out, you damned people, I know you are here, come out, or I will kill them!”

The Big Baldy had earlier split from his accomplices to ambush Xiao Qian and Shi Tou from both ends. Initially, when things were dropping from the sky, the Big Baldy was definitely frightened, thinking it was Shi Yu manifesting some sort of divine power.

But when his accomplice knelt on the ground, he realized this wasn’t the work of a god, but the work of the rescuers!

For these despicable criminals, the Messenger of Justice was even more horrifying than a god.

Aside from the cases of abducting women and children, they had other crimes under their belts. Particularly Big Baldy, as the leader, his standards for punishment were different from regular people. Rather than being caught and severely punished, it would be better to take these two women hostage!

Big Baldy still retained some hope, hoping that there were only a few rescuers, making it easier to deal with.

In the unseen jungle, Yu Minglang was swiftly assigning tasks to the people he had brought with him.

They were strategically positioned all around.

After Big Baldy shouted a couple of times, the surroundings were eerily silent, except for the sounds of his accomplice writhing and howling on the ground.

It was as if the impact just now hadn’t happened at all, as if everything was just an illusion…

No, it wasn’t an illusion!

Big Baldy sensed that he had fallen into a desperate situation. His only lifeline now were the captives in his hand.

“Come out now, damn you, aren’t you all upright and righteous? Don’t hide, come out immediately, or else, I’ll kill them!”

He pressured them further with the sharp edge of the knife in his hand.

“Do not harm the hostages, or bear the consequences!”

A pleasant, composed male voice echoed from somewhere. In this quiet valley, it sounded like music!

Xiao Qian had always found Yu Minglang’s voice amazing, but there had never been a moment when his voice brought her such a sense of security. This was her Xiao Qiang!

It was Yu Minglang speaking!

Xiao Qian, who’d always been able to control her emotions, was on the verge of tears at that moment.

It had been less than three days since they separated.

But it felt like it had been so long, only at that moment did she realize how naive her thoughts about leaving him had been. How much she had anticipated his arrival in her heart.

“Come out! Come out now!”

Yu Minglang emerged.

His arm was still in a sling, but he carried an intense atmosphere. Seeing Xiao Qian being held hostage, his eyes darkened.

Then, turning to look at the despicable trafficker, his eyes were filled with killing intent.

“Release them, you have no way out.”

Yu Minglang could not maintain eye contact with Xiao Qian for too long, as it would shatter his concentration. Deliberately avoiding her, he fixed his gaze on the despicable trafficker.

“Who the hell are you?”

The bad guy was encouraged after seeing only one man, moreover a wounded one, immediately allowing hope to spring in him. However, the formidable aura of Yu Minglang instilled fear anew.

“I’m just someone visiting my hometown who happened to pass by. Let the girls go, and I’ll pretend I didn’t see you.” Yu Minglang lied, attempting to persuade the trafficker to release Xiao Qian and Shi Yu.

“Impossible! Drop your weapon on the ground!” The bad guy pointed at Yu Minglang. Although he saw only one man, he felt an inexplicable terror. It was even more terrifying than seeing a group of people.

Yu Minglang threw the weapon in his right hand onto the ground, raised his hands to show he was unarmed, and the bad guy pointed at Yu Minglang with one hand while using his elbow to restrain Xiao Qian.

“You, move in that direction!”

Xiao Qian seized the opportunity when he pointed his knife away from her, bit down hard on his forearm.

At the same time, Shi Yu got the message and mustered her courage. She clutched the blade of the knife with her bare hand, not minding the blood..
