Chapter 2393: Thank You For Saving Us
Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
In the dead of the night, the cry for help came to his ears and his heart couldn’t be at ease. Therefore, he lifted his quilt and put on his outer garment and walked out.
The old man shook his head after he walked out of the room and had no choice but to get up as well. Although the old man was not a nosey person, but that cry for help made him feel a mess in his heart.
If you didn’t have the ability to save someone, that’s why you didn’t help, that made sense. However, he obviously had the ability and if he pretended that he was sleeping the whole time, even if no one had said anything, he wouldn’t have been able to live with the guilt.
“Hey, this old man has a kind heart.” He said to himself and walked out of the room with his hands behind his back.
However, by the time the two of them came outside, they saw that someone was already one step ahead of them. The figure wore a white inner robe with an azure overcoat on the outside and was holding a non-fussy child in her arms, perched on the rooftop watching.
Feng Jiu held Hao’er who stared around with clear eyes in one hand while her chin was perched on her other hand as she watched the scene below.
The guards were protecting a pair of twins who were eight or nine years old. Judging from their clothes, the twins were probably children of rich and noble families. In addition to the guards who were protecting them, there was also an old man who was by their side guarding them. However, with the arrival of another group of black robed men, the old man was obviously unable to resist and his body already had several wounds inflicted by the black robed men.
The twins were obviously frightened and they hugged each other tightly, huddled up at the side. Other than crying, they also cried out for help. However, as they looked around, no one had come to meddle in this matter.
Even some rooms that hadn’t turned out their lights didn’t dare make any sounds when they heard the movements outside.
As she watched the black robed men approach the two children with a sharp sword, she moved her finger and shot out a silver needle.
The black robed man groaned and fell silently. Because of this, the other black robed men’s eyes turned towards her.
“Kid, are you courting death?” A black robed man shouted fiercely and strode towards her. The long sword in his hand surged with spirit energy and a murderous aura filled the air.
Feng Jiu glanced at the black robed man casually and turned her fingers. Two more silver needles appeared and shot out as the black robed man walked over. The black robed man was prepared and blocked the silver needles with his long sword. The silver needles made a clang noise and a spark shot out as it collided with the blade.
“Hahaha, you want to kill me with a hidden weapon? You are… umpf!” Before the black robed man could finish speaking, blood oozed out from between his eyebrows.
When one of the twins saw this, he pulled the twin beside him and ran towards Feng Jiu quickly. The two of them obviously practised cultivation as the spirit energy on their bodies rose and they stepped up on the breeze and walked towards the roof where Feng Jiu was sitting.
Upon seeing this, Feng Jiu’s eyebrows raised. When they saw the children walking towards her, the few black robed men attacked with hidden weapons. She flicked with her finger and a few breaths shot out and bounced the hidden weapons back.
“Ughh, mmph!”
Muffled groans and screams sounded and two more black robed men fell. When he saw this, the injured old man who was protecting the children glanced at Feng Jiu and said: “Thank you, Young Master, for saving us!”
Feng Jiu held one cheek in her hand and didn’t speak.. She looked down at the scene below her, her expression was inexplicable and no one knew what she was thinking of.
