Sanni’s face stiffened, then she lowered her head. "Big sister, I..."

"Mengmeng, human life is precious, and no one has the right to decide on another’s fate..." Yang Ruxin stepped forward, took Sanni’s hand, and although she was from a society governed by law and would fight, it was always in self-defense when provoked, never with the intent to kill. Even in this ancient time where life was treated as worthless, she could not go with the flow, "Mengmeng, if just because of a little grudge, I choose to kill, that would be treating life like grass and be no different from those bad people. Would I still be the big sister you respect?"

"Big sister, I’m sorry, it was Mengmeng who was wrong. Actually, Mengmeng just said it in a fit of anger, I wouldn’t dare to kill anyone..." Sanni said anxiously, "Big sister, don’t be mad..."

"I understand," Yang Ruxin patted Sanni on the head, "I want you all to be strong and independent, but you should also harbor kind thoughts; hatred, jealousy, paranoia, and rage can all make a person ugly, cause them to lose their proper thinking, and often lead to one mistake after another..."

Sanni nodded vigorously: "Don’t worry, big sister, we will always stay beautiful..." she said, making a gesture, "Sister Qingge said that we represent justice, because we are the Pretty Guardians..."

Yang Ruxin couldn’t help but laugh. However, speaking of Yu Qingge, that girl is probably doing well with the Fang Family, no news for so many days, it seems she’s content and has forgotten to return.

The Xiaocang River winds around the village and through Xiaocang Mountain, splitting the mountain and forming a cliff, with turbulent water flows below. This was also where Daya had disappeared after falling into the water. However, right in the middle of that cliff, about two or three meters above the water surface, there was an outcropping rock with a pine tree growing slanted beside it.

Unless one stood on that rock or on the cliff across from it, no one would notice the cave hidden behind it. This was accidentally discovered by Gu Yao when he was helping to search for Daya.

Of course, even if it was discovered, it’d be impossible to get down there without excellent qinggong skills.

Ever since Qingheng’s eyes recovered, Gu Yao was in charge of contacting everyone and turned this hidden place into a temporary base for the Shadow Guards.

At this moment, inside the cave, Chai Huan was chained to the wall.

Across from her, Shadow Seven was whipping a man kneeling on the ground, the crisp sound of the whip was all too real, and the whip was studded with barbs; each strike tore off chunks of flesh. Soon, the man being whipped was covered in blood, yet he bit back any sounds of pain.

After twenty lashes, the man collapsed face first onto the ground.

Shadow Seven quickly dropped the whip, helped the beaten man up, then looked up at Shadow Three.

"Thirteen, do you understand where you went wrong?" sighed Shadow Three.

"I do," Shadow Thirteen spoke weakly, "Thirteen should not have acted on his own, and certainly should not have spoken out of turn." He was regretful. He hadn’t thought it through. Back when he was with the Gu Family, he was close to Chai Huan; they often served the young master together, one in the open and one in secret. So, when Chai Huan sent a message asking about the young master’s condition, he didn’t think twice and just told her, feeling happy because the young master had returned. But who could have expected Chai Huan to...
