Chapter 511: Chapter 513: Leaving

The Clan Leader of the Witch tribe walked over and deeply bowed to Shao He.

"Thank you, miss. Without you, we would not know how many of our tribe members would have been lost."

Shao He waved her hand to indicate it was not necessary, not wanting the Clan Leader to bow to her, quickly stepping aside.

"There is no need for such formalities. I hope the Clan Leader will keep his promise and see us off," Shao He said with a light smile.

"Certainly. I will personally escort you and your companions tomorrow," the Clan Leader responded.

The next morning, Shao He and Pei Huaian followed the Clan Leader towards the west.

Along the way, the scenery was exceptionally beautiful, and the Clan Leader, together with the elders, escorted them to the entrance of the valley.

Carriages were already prepared. Pei Huaian bowed and said, "Farewell, everyone!"

"I take my leave!" Shao He bowed her hands.

"Take care!" the Clan Leader nodded with gravity.

Shao He boarded the carriage first, while the Third Elder suddenly spoke to Pei Huaian, "I hope you will become a benevolent ruler in the future."

These words slightly stunned Pei Huaian, who then nodded gently before boarding the carriage.

The carriage started and slowly moved forward.

The Clan Leader turned to ask, "Will he truly become a great ruler in the future?"

"The Purple Star in the southeast is growing weaker, and faintly, a new Purple Star is rising," the Third Elder said with a smile, turning around.

The Second Elder, puzzled, caught up and asked, "Why are you so sure he is the destined ruler?"

"The Purple Star in the southeast represents the Great Yao Kingdom. These two are from the Great Yao Kingdom, and ever since their arrival, the celestial Purple Star seems to have shifted."

"I see..." the Clan Leader suddenly realized.

...

Shao He sat in the carriage, pretending to nap, as the carriage traveled for a day and a night, finally entering the Great Yao Kingdom.

Suddenly, An Shi, who was scouting ahead, hurried back, and following this, the carriage stopped and the curtain was lifted.

"What has happened?" Pei Huaian, looking at the person sleeping in his arms, asked in a low voice.

"There’s trouble." An Shi’s brows were knitted with worry as he bowed.

"What happened?" Pei Huaian asked again.

An Shi, looking distressed, replied, "Ahead, there’s a small village. Many people there are dead, their bodies piled up at the entrance to the village, and the road is covered in blood. The villagers’ cries are unending..."

"How could this be, what exactly happened?" Pei Huaian frowned, a premonition forming in his mind that trouble was brewing.

"I’m not sure of the specifics."

"Let’s go and see," Pei Huaian said, letting down the carriage curtain.

An hour later, the carriage stopped in front of the village, where villagers lay strewn about, and the air was thick with the pungent smell of fresh blood.

At the village gate, bones, severed limbs, and intestines were everywhere to be seen...

Seeing such horrific scenes, even Pei Huaian and An Shi, who were accustomed to slaughter, couldn’t help feeling nauseous.

Seeing this, Shao He ran to a large tree and began to vomit.

Villagers knelt on the ground, weeping bitterly - elderly, women, and children.

Pei Huaian’s expression darkened, his hand tightening on the hilt of his sword, his anger rising.

"What happened here?" Pei Huaian stepped forward and asked a woman.

"It was bandits - those bandits were worse than beasts; they not only plundered our wealth but also harmed the youth of our village."

"Those damned bandits!"

"Only us, the old and weak, are left in the village. What will we do now!"

Continuous cries of grief rose, and Pei Huaian was at a loss for words.

Suddenly, a murderous aura came from behind.

"Bang!"

Pei Huaian was sent flying by a strike from a man in black, falling to the ground.

"Puh!" He spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, his mouth dripping with crimson.

"Huaian!" Shao He’s pupils dilated, and she rushed to help Pei Huaian.

He raised his sleeve to wipe the blood from his mouth, revealing an extremely gentle smile, and said, "I’m fine, don’t worry."

"Who are you?" the man with a scar on his face asked, still holding a large knife in his hand.

Pei Huaian’s eyes slowly filled with a cold glare, tightening his grip on his long sword as he slowly raised it, "Did you kill these villagers?"

"Are you referring to these worthless people? Me and a few others passed by here wanting some money, but these people were so ungrateful and dared to resist, ending up all dead," the scarred man said nonchalantly, his words falling as more bandits emerged from the woods, each holding a machete.

"You’ve gone too far, killing so many innocent villagers! Aren’t you afraid of the official residence finding out?" Shao He glared angrily at the scarred man.

"Humph! The Emperor is far away, and this place is a paradise for the strong. Those who choose to stay here should be prepared to face death," the scarred man said with a sinister smile.

"You are no better than beasts!" An Shi gritted his teeth, veins bulging on his forehead.

The scarred man laughed heartily, "Beasts? Here, anyone who can survive is a hero."

"Brothers, attack, and those who capture these three will be rewarded with twenty taels of silver!"

"Attack!"

Suddenly, a swarm of bandits charged forward.

Pei Huaian immediately stepped in front of Shao He, "Be careful."

"Yes," Shao He nodded slightly, her eyes icy as she scanned the approaching bandits.

"Swoosh!" The long sword was drawn, its blade flashing coldly.
