The Virgin Mary in the Book: I Decide My Life with Two Swords

Cangyue Country Wucheng Inn

When Ye Ling and Jiu You returned to the inn, it was almost dawn. They hurried into the space and washed the blood off their bodies.

Ye Ling didn't dare to wash for a long time. He just washed away the smell of blood, then came out and sat on the sofa to dry his hair with his internal energy.

Meng Meng was very happy: "Congratulations to the master for successfully hunting in the jungle. Although the space improvement is small, but a sparrow may be small, it is still meat!"

"This kind of jungle farming wastes money and equipment, but produces no results. It's better to do less of it in the future," Ye Ling muttered.

Jiuyou also came out after washing. He had dried his hair and tied it into a crown.

Ye Ling said: "What do you think about this matter?"

"Where is senior sister?" Jiuyou wanted to hear Ye Ling first.

Ye Ling pondered for a moment. "There are two reasons. One is that they really want to wipe out the entire clan. Second, they want to use this incident to drag Langya Pavilion into trouble. Think about it, Gu Ci's entire family is dead, and now there's only this one left. Langya Pavilion is so arrogant about escorting him. If he gets killed along the way, what will the people in the martial arts world say about Langya Pavilion? It's going to be very unpleasant."

"Senior brother has just been appointed as the Pavilion Master. He is the youngest among all the Pavilion Masters of Langya Pavilion. Naturally, some people are not convinced and want to make things difficult for him. It is also possible," Jiuyou said.

"That's why I said this is hard to say. The key is that Gu Ci himself doesn't know who wants to kill him. Also, if the other party really wants to wipe out the entire family, then can this Taoist Master Xianhe still be alive?"

Jiuyou pondered without responding, and continued to himself, "Since they were able to wipe out the Fenglei Sect overnight, how could they have allowed Gu Ci to escape with a child? And even fled all the way to Langya Pavilion?"

"What you said makes sense. It seems that someone is going to take action against Langya Pavilion? No way? Now in the martial arts world, which force can challenge Langya Pavilion? Even the imperial court has to consider its own capabilities. What could be the reason?" Ye Ling thought seriously.

Jiuyou looked at Ye Ling, his mind wandering. He mustered up the courage to speak, "Senior Sister, when you were looking at the starry sky before, you said you wanted to... become something?"

"What?" Ye Ling was a little confused: "Did I...did I say that? I forgot. Can you help me recall it?"

Jiuyou felt somewhat disappointed: "You said..."

"Master, master, someone is coming." Meng Meng interrupted Jiuyou and sent the two out of the space in an instant.

Jiuyou wanted to strangle Mengmeng to death, but he had no choice but to go to the door. When he saw the pigeons outside the door, he wanted to kill even more.

Pigeon felt the murderous aura and was confused: "Are you okay? Showing murderous aura so early in the morning? Um... Miss Ye, it's time for breakfast. After that, we'll set off."

"I'll be right there," Ye Ling responded.

Pigeon smiled and turned away. Jiuyou immediately put on an aggrieved expression: "Senior Sister, you didn't finish what you said last night."

"We'll continue talking about this next time we have a chance. Let's go and have breakfast." Ye Ling smiled harmlessly and went out first.

Mengmeng Space stood up for Jiuyou: "Master, do you dare to say that what you said last night was not that you wanted to marry Jiuyou?"

Ye Lingxinyu replied: I don’t have you, don’t talk nonsense, or I will sue you for defamation.

"Forget it! Your feelings are connected with mine. You were moved at that time, melted by Jiuyou's tender love, and had the urge to get married immediately. Mengmeng can feel it."

Ye Ling still insisted: I didn’t, you are talking nonsense.

"Hmph! The master is dishonest. Just wait and see. Jiuyou was not smart before, but now he is. He is definitely a master at picking up girls. You will be completely won over by him soon. Let's wait and see."

Ye Ling didn't believe it: Let's wait and see.

After a simple breakfast, everyone set off again, and Leng Yan followed closely, which made Ye Ling very unhappy.

At the city gate, the carriage stopped and didn't move for a quarter of an hour. Leng Yan got off the carriage and came to the front: "Ling'er, why don't you leave?"

"I want to wait for someone," Ye Ling replied.

"Waiting for someone? Who?"

"People from Langya Pavilion, by the way, Young Master Leng, there is something I must make clear first. The next journey will be very dangerous. Someone may come to assassinate you at any time. For safety reasons, you'd better keep a distance from us. Otherwise, if something happens, I will not be responsible. Besides, swords have no eyes. What if I hurt any of you?" Ye Ling said.

"You are not an envoy now, why do you still care about the affairs of Langya Pavilion?" Leng Yan couldn't understand.

"Because my brother is the head of Langya Pavilion, I'm in charge of this matter. Besides, for me, this is just a matter of convenience. It's just killing a few people. Master Leng, think it over carefully before following us. I emphasize again, if anything goes wrong, I will not be responsible. What happened at the inn in the city last night has spread, and you must know about it."

"Could you please stop calling me Master Leng?"

"if not?"

"Gee~" Bicheng and Zhuang Yi led the team out of the city.

Jiuyou started moving immediately. He didn't like Leng Yan at all.

Ye Ling lowered the car curtains and added, "Think carefully before you follow me. It's very dangerous. I won't be responsible if anything goes wrong."

"I don't need your care." Leng Yan was very angry. Ever since the two of them had quarreled over Jiuyou a few days ago, Ye Ling called him Young Master Leng whenever he saw him, and no longer called him cousin. However, his attitude towards his wife was completely different, and he said that he was not targeting anyone but the matter.

The happiest person at the moment was Bicheng. He rode his horse quickly to Ye Ling's carriage and asked, "Miss Ye?"

Ye Ling lifted the curtain again: "What's wrong?"

"Thank you!"

"You're being so polite. After all, we've worked together before. Have you raised the flag of Langya Pavilion?"

"They've come openly. Now that we have you and Jiuyou, we're not afraid of them. Let's send them off openly."

"Reliable, I want to see who else is looking for death. These days, there are many people who can do such despicable things, but there are not many who can be so powerful."

"Miss Ye has a choice?"

"Not really. I just thought that the person behind this must be a big shot. Didn't you guys leave any of them alive?"

"It's useless to keep them. They only do things for money and haven't even met the owner. The person behind the scenes puts the deposit somewhere and asks them to take it, and then kills people. They can't get any other valuable information out of them."

"Leave a few alive next time so I can ask them."

"Yes." Bicheng subconsciously treated Ye Ling as their commander and obeyed his orders.

At the same time, in an inn in the Fog City, a man in a dark cloak sat with his back to the door.

Two men in straw hats came in and bowed: "Sir"

The man in the black cloak said coldly, "You guys missed such a good opportunity last night?"

The two straw hat men immediately knelt on one knee: "Sir, calm down."

One of them explained, "Young Master, those thugs could have succeeded last night, but... but Ye Ling and Jiu You came down from nowhere. With their martial arts skills, those thugs were like an egg hitting a stone, kicking against an iron plate."

After a moment's silence, the man in the black cloak spoke again, "Jiuyou is not dead. This is beyond our expectations. He is the biggest hidden danger. With him, Ye Ling has a helper. We have already said that these two people will definitely stand on the side of Langya Pavilion. Ye Ling is also a thorn in the side and is indeed difficult to deal with."

"Master, our previous plan didn't include Ye Ling and Jiu You. Who knew they would suddenly show up, and coincidentally end up in Wucheng? This morning, the people from Langya Pavilion made a big fuss and left the city with Ye Ling. This time, fewer people will want to claim the bounty. After all, with a Langya List expert accompanying them, who would dare to act rashly?"

"A big reward always brings courage. If this thing can't be completed as planned, do you think you can get away with it?"

"But sir, now that Ye Ling is escorting us, and the Falcon Prison no longer exists, we can't kill that child by relying on the gangsters alone."

"Solutions are invented by humans. The Falcon Prison is gone, but that doesn't mean the other assassin organizations in the world are dead. Just do your job well, and the higher-ups will find a solution. Go, follow the escort team closely."

"Yes" the two stood up and left.

The man in the black cloak played with the fan in his hand and muttered to himself: "Ye Ling, what a heroine! See you in the martial arts world."

"Sir," a man with a sword in his arms and a half-covered face appeared in the room, "You knew that Ye Ling was in Wucheng, why didn't you change the assassination plan in advance?"

"They all said Ye Ling had a falling out with Langya Pavilion. I just wanted to see if Ye Ling would mind her own business. Facts have proven that rumors are just rumors. If anything were to happen, Ye Ling would still help Langya Pavilion without hesitation. After all, Mo Yufeng is her senior brother, a dear senior brother!"

"So you are testing Ye Ling?"

"Yes, it's a good deal to use a few dozen worthless ruffians to test the masters of the Langya List."

"My subordinate understands."

"Bicheng and Zhuang Yi are not pushovers. Even without Ye Ling last night, those losers wouldn't have been able to kill their target. The assassinations along the way were just a trick by the higher-ups. The real highlight is yet to come! Come on, send a pigeon back to explain the situation and have them send someone over. Also, prepare the carriage, we're leaving the city."

"Yes," a man responded.

In the evening, the large group of people camped in a dilapidated land temple. The temple was already dilapidated and only had a main hall where the deity was placed. The hall smelled bad because no one had lived there for a long time. Fortunately, the yard was big enough, but the dilapidated walls could only block the wind. Ye Ling's carriage, Fang Shu's carriage and You Minglang's carriage were parked in turn under the most intact east wall.

Ye Ling was in the middle position. She still extended a tent from the carriage. Youminglang followed suit this time.

Seeing that the sky was gloomy and about to rain, Ye Ling took out a few tents from the space and asked Xu and Zhuang Yi to watch them set up so that the brothers of Langya Pavilion would have a place to shelter from the rain. Because the main hall was occupied by Leng Yan's people, Ye Ling was very curious why they didn't mind the smell?

Bi Cheng first ordered his men to follow Ye Ling's example and set up a tent for Fang Shu's carriage.

Adhering to the moral principle that everyone is a family, Ye Ling prepared to stew a big pot of stew in the evening. Since there was plenty of space anyway, he first used two pots to heat up the steamed buns that had been stored in the freezer for more than half a year, then took out the vegetables and started to process them one by one.

Fang Shu was also very sensible in helping. She was used to Ye Ling cooking, so she was able to help easily.
