Chapter 544: Chapter 540: Troublesome Matters When Returning to Hometown 75 [Mass Release 69]

——————

Yan Jinsu’s mind was racing, she made up her mind that even if the Law Person protected her, she had to give it a try!

There was no reason for her to be suppressed and schemed against without fighting back!

After passing the second brother, Yan Jinsu ran for another half hour before she felt the ground rumbling ahead; she immediately sensed what was coming—an incoming wolf pack!

Judging by the sounds of their running, saying there were dozens would be an understatement!

Remember, the lead wolf of Qingfeng Village was merely driven away, yet it was accompanied by nearly twenty wolves. The one referred to as the ’Wild Wolf King’ by Boss, which also caused them the loss of two companions’ lives, must signify that the wolf pack was no small number!

Yan Jinsu decided there and then to make her delivery to this location—it was a hundred miles’ distance from Qingfeng Village, and that was just the straight-line distance, not accounting for the actual route that would require traversing mountains and ridges.

Placing the iron cage on the ground, Yan Jinsu took a sharp blade from the Space and chopped it down onto the top of the cage, picked a drier spot, dumped the weakened wolf cub on the ground, and tossed the now ragged iron cage back into the Space.

"Alright, I’ve brought you this far, go back and tell your pack to stay away from human territories, otherwise, I won’t mind treating you as just another kind of meat!"

Yan Jinsu stared at the little wolf cub as she said this, and after conveying the menacing intention through her spiritual power and seeing it tremble with fear, she snorted and disappeared from the spot in an instant.

The ground was too muddy, her repeated running back and forth left Yan Jinsu covered in rain, vines, and such.

On her way back, she saw that second brother again, she didn’t know how he managed it, but he was actually heading towards Boss and Fourth’s location.

Thinking of how Boss and Fourth were poisoned by her drug, one that definitely had no cure, and how a group of desperate men were merely driven by money, to know that Yan Jinxian had given them such a small amount of money, yet almost wiped out their whole group—

Yan Jinsu didn’t believe that Boss and Fourth would let that demoness Yan Jinxian off so easily!

Even if she had used her own name, after figuring out that the employer’s name was off, even a foolish Boss would know that the name of the employer was certainly fake!

As for whether they would actually find her, it was indeed inevitable!

Any person, upon knowing that they had been injected with an unknown substance, upon discovering the mastermind, would certainly seek them out!

However, it would definitely start with giving Yan Jinxian a hard time before coming to her to boast and request the antidote!

This, Yan Jinsu had already calculated at that moment.

Seeing the second brother saving people, she was in no hurry.

If someone else was there to take care of Boss and Fourth, she wouldn’t have to trouble herself, they either would die from the cold or from excessive blood loss.

Wouldn’t it be making it too easy for that demoness Yan Jinxian?

Yan Jinsu humphed.

By the time she returned to Qingfeng Village, it was already past four o’clock, and in another hour, it would start to brighten.

Yan Jinsu’s safe return relieved the elders who had stayed at the village committee office for half the night.

"I apologize for causing the elders worry. However, fortunately, I have already hunted the lead wolf, but because it was too far, I couldn’t bring it back alone. After this night, the major threat to our village has been lifted. Everyone can now go back and rest easy!"

"Yes, yes, Jingchen’s wife, you should go back and take a hot bath, have a good sleep, and we’ll have another village committee meeting at nine tomorrow morning. It’s getting bright out, everyone should go back and rest for a while!"

"Alright, thank you. Then, elders, I’ll be heading back first." Yan Jinsu certainly wasn’t shy about leaving, her clothes soaked through, making her extremely uncomfortable.

Her whole body was freezing, and she really did intend to go home for a warm bath.

Xie Jingwei followed Yan Jinsu back, but since he needed to avoid suspicion, he didn’t dare get too close. He even felt like he had no right to scold her!

His heart was so blocked up; this sister-in-law was just as formidable as a second Xie Jingchen!

Yan Jinsu didn’t care what others thought, as long as her own husband didn’t mind her being hard to deal with!

As soon as Yan Jinsu got home, she was scolded by Zhou Xiuhua. The old lady didn’t know Yan Jinsu had chased the lead wolf up the mountain. Since the wild wolves attacked the village, there had been terrifying howling from the southwest part of the village. With thunderstorms adding to the disturbance, the elders couldn’t sleep.

Xie Tiesheng also couldn’t sleep; with only women and children at home, he dared not leave the house. The whole family, disturbed by the howling of the wolves, huddled together for comfort.

Now that Yan Jinsu and Xie Jingwei had returned one after the other, Dad and Mom finally relaxed. Xie Jinghong stayed up late to keep the children company and fell asleep next to them once the howling stopped after one in the morning.

Zhou Xiuhua was a woman of many thoughts and couldn’t sleep. She stayed up all night with her husband in the main room.

Because it rained, villagers shouted that the wolves had been repelled and everyone could sleep in peace—after hearing this, Zhou Xiuhua had her husband fetch some ginger to soak in boiling hot water.

This was prepared for their eldest son and San’er’s wife who had been out braving the rain and wind.

Xie Tiesheng knew his wife was anxious, and there was nothing he could do to help her. When one gets old, doesn’t one just hope for their descendants to live in peace?

Right now, with their son and daughter-in-law out on an adventure, he himself was all jittery, unable to even calm his own nerves, let alone reassure his stubborn companion.

Old couples like them could only clutch their dark and aged hands, seeking to be each other’s support.

"We’re old, wife, don’t stop Ni from coming in. Haven’t you seen how wet and muddy the kids are? Let them go back and take a hot bath! Ni, if there’s no hot water in your room, just take this kettle from here."

"Dad, don’t worry, my room has hot water. I’ll go take a bath first, then come over."

"Alright, go quickly." Zhou Xiuhua watched her children leave, and then she slumped against her husband, murmuring:

"Buddha bless us~ It’s so good, everyone is safe!"

"Yes, it’s all good, you should go to sleep too, you’ve worried for nothing all night."

"If you’re tired, you go sleep, I can’t. It’s almost dawn, I’ll go make some millet porridge, so Ni can have a bowl of warm porridge when she comes!"

"Alright, alright, I’ll go with you and be the stoker."

"There you go, stoker indeed? You should be fanning flames, that’s more like it!" Zhou Xiuhua was helped up by Xie Tiesheng, took a moment to steady herself from the dizziness, and then jokingly scolded her husband.

"Even if you’re just fanning flames, you got fire, to be my stoker and yet you still nitpick, wife..."

"Hey, isn’t this your doing? Look at how you were as a father back in the day, then look at how Shitou treats his wife! Me entering your den was really a loss!"

Zhou Xiuhua got a little upset just thinking about it; getting fed dog food by her third son every single day was enough!

Xie Tiesheng listened, but pretended to be deaf, keeping quiet, while inwardly muttering a curse:

You brat, doting on your wife to the point your old dad suffers, that’s where a son is in the wrong!
