44: Chapter 0044 Little Wife

No wonder the previous few attempts to suppress the bandits had all come up empty-handed!

If you invite the female stronghold leader herself to go and suppress her own stronghold, it would be a miracle if you succeeded!!

"Boss Su, Commander Lin, I will bid farewell to the people at the temple, and then I will take you there."

"Very well, sorry to trouble you, Miss Mu." Lin Xiao was very polite.

Mu Wanying nodded with a nervous smile and walked quickly back to the temple.

When she arrived in front of a monk, Mu Wanying's expression became cold and stern.

"Tell General Wu to take the brothers and set an ambush at the third valley entrance."

The monk smiled and nodded.

Mu Wanying turned around and returned to Lin Xiao and his companion, once again appearing as a shy farm girl.

"The two of you, please follow me."

As they left, Lin Xiao turned his head and glanced at the monk who was slipping away quickly.

[Jiang Tong, 24 years old, Mu Family Army, monk, aptitude: yellow grade]

Mu Family Army...

Lin Xiao tried hard to search his memory and finally recalled something.

The ancestors of the Mu Family were founding fathers of the Great Gan Dynasty, titled Marquis of Wuwei.

By the generation of General Mu Tiexin, it seemed that because of some charge, he was beheaded, and his entire clan had their assets confiscated and were exiled.

After all, he was only a minor scholar at the border and did not know too many inside stories.

Looking at it now, Mu Wanying had brought a group of Mu Family military households here to become bandits, robbing the rich to help the poor.

Although everyone has their own difficulties, since you robbed my supplies, I can only teach you a lesson!

Lin Xiao muttered to himself and quickly formulated a plan.

Arriving near Wansong Village, Mu Wanying pointed to the forest not far away.

"A few days ago, people from the village who were hunting saw mountain bandits. You go up from that entrance over there. Commander Lin, shall I take you there?"

Lin Xiao nodded and said to Su Wansha, "Miss Su, the mountain road is difficult to walk, so you just wait here for me."

Su Wansha was a bit unhappy, "If Sister Mu can go, why can't I?"

"She is a local and is familiar with this place."

Lin Xiao said with a grin, "Besides, if I haven't come out by dark, you need to go back and help me call for reinforcements."

"I told you to bring more soldiers earlier! Now you know what it's like to be afraid?"

Su Wansha was annoyed, but what the man said made sense, so she had to reluctantly agree.

Soon, Lin Xiao followed Mu Wanying all the way to the foot of the mountain.

The outside of the mountain was bare and could not hide anyone at all.

After climbing over two mountain peaks, a valley covered by forest finally appeared.

"Miss Mu, your stamina is really good. You climbed two mountain peaks without even panting?"

Mu Wanying turned her head back with a shy smile, "I'm used to going up the mountain to hunt on weekdays."

"Is that so? If you hadn't said that, I would have thought you practiced martial arts."

A flash of alertness crossed Mu Wanying's eyes, "I don't have that opportunity..."

"A hunter's daughter, Mu Xin, might not have the opportunity, but the daughter of General of Cavalry, General Mu Tiexin... surely would, right?"

Before the words fell, Mu Wanying, who was walking in front, suddenly shivered violently!!

A flash of killing intent crossed her eyes, but it was quickly hidden.

The woman turned around and looked at Lin Xiao with a face full of innocence and confusion.

"Commander Lin, what are you saying?"

Lin Xiao shrugged and said indifferently, "Miss Mu, don't you think the situation with Wansong Stronghold is very unreasonable?"

"A group of mountain bandits, suppressed time and time again, yet they never retaliate against the villagers who lead the government troops?"

"Even if the mountain bandits were chivalrous, it's impossible for them to be so magnanimous, right?"

"You, a hunter's daughter, barely make enough money from hunting to feed your own family, so where do you get the money to provide porridge?"

Lin Xiao shook his head and sighed, "It's just that the guys who came to suppress the bandits before didn't put their hearts into it; otherwise, they would have discovered the problem long ago, right?"

Hearing this, the silly village girl look on Mu Wanying's face disappeared completely.

Replacing it was a touch of coldness and killing intent.

"I admit it's unreasonable, but how did you know that I am related to General Mu Tiexin?"

Lin Xiao looked surprised, "So it really is true?! I was just bluffing you, and now you've admitted it yourself!"

"You!!..."

Mu Wanying felt she had been played and was furious.

But soon, she sneered and took out a dagger from behind her waist.

"I originally wanted to do it later, but since you've seen through it, you can just die here!"

The woman took a step forward, brandishing the dagger, and slashed towards Lin Xiao's neck!

In terms of strength, Mu Wanying was not weaker than Leng Bingyan and should be considered quite powerful among the younger generation.

But the problem was, Lin Xiao was now a Martial Arts Grandmaster, with hundreds of years of cultivation, which was no joke!

He took a step back, dodged lightly, and then slapped the woman directly on her ample backside!

"Smack!!"

Oh? I couldn't tell, you've got some substance?

Mu Wanying stumbled and missed, feeling a burning sensation behind her, and even her dark face showed a blush!

"Lecher!!"

"Hey, you tried to kill me without a word, me spanking you isn't going too far, right?"

Lin Xiao said righteously.

"I'm going to kill you!!"

Mu Wanying had never suffered such humiliation before; in her rage and shame, she stabbed at Lin Xiao frantically again!

But in Lin Xiao's eyes, her attack speed was still too slow, and the rhythm was not consistent enough.

Lin Xiao grabbed her arm, snatched away Mu Wanying's dagger, and threw it, embedding it into a tree.

The woman used an elbow strike, attempting to hit Lin Xiao's head.

Lin Xiao raised his hand to block, and seized the momentum to throw Mu Wanying entirely into the nearby mountain stream!

"Splash!!"

Mu Wanying was completely soaked in the water and choked on a mouthful of water.

Just as she managed to stand steady and get up, a large hand pressed down on her head from behind, pushing her back into the water once again!

"Mmph! Mmph mmph!!—"

Lin Xiao kept the woman submerged in the water, while his other hand continued to "smack smack" spank her.

"Fierce! I'll show you fierce!! You dare to kill me!? I'm asking you a question!!"

Mu Wanying opened her mouth in the water with "pfft pfft" sounds, unable to shout at all!

If you ask me a question, you have to let me open my mouth to speak!

Her tears came out; she was uncomfortable! Suffocating! Aggrieved!

Since she was a child, as the daughter of a Great General, men were all afraid of her, and everywhere she went, she was a head taller than others!

Even when her family was persecuted, she relied on her own skills to bring the escaped Mu Family Army and occupied the mountains in the Wansong forest area.

Among the men around her, no one was as powerful as her! Everyone treated her with awe and reverence!

But now, she was actually being humiliated like this by a man!?

For the first time in her life, a complex, unprecedented emotion spread in her heart...

So, I am also just a woman...

Unknowingly, her whole body went limp, and she lost the strength to resist...

Lin Xiao discovered that Mu Wanying was no longer struggling, and his heart sank immediately!

Damn! She wouldn't have drowned, would she?

He still had use for this woman; she couldn't die easily!

Lin Xiao hurriedly pulled Mu Wanying up and turned her around.

Pushing aside the woman's hair, a face that had been washed by the water and was gradually becoming fair came into view.

Willow-leaf eyebrows, a jade-like nose, red lips, and a lustrous oval face that was delicate and smooth.

The woman's face was flushed, her eyes were teary, full of grievance, and she was pitiful to behold.

At this moment, Mu Wanying no longer had any of the fierceness and coldness of the Wansong Stronghold female leader; she was the spitting image of a little daughter-in-law who had just been bullied!!
