Looking After a Battle God With Hundreds of Billions in Supplies

64 What Do You Guys Want?

After galloping for a while, Su Ying felt that it was too slow to let the horses carry Jiang Yang and his companion, so she gave them some medicine to help them fall asleep. Then she brought the horse with the two men into the interspatial store so that she could increase her speed.

Without the need to worry about those two men, Su Ying could move much faster now. However, she didn’t travel for long before she saw a dozen people blocking her way.

Those people couldn’t hide their surprise when they saw Su Ying running in their direction with the wild wolves. They only clenched the swords in their hands tightly and glared at her when she got closer.

“Kill!”

The other party didn’t waste any time and immediately attacked.

Su Ying narrowed her icy eyes and yanked the tow rope in her hand abruptly. The rope activated the collar locks on the wolves’ necks, and the pain from their necks caused them to howl in a mad rage.

“Whether you can eat until your stomach becomes round like a ball will depend on your abilities.” Su Ying released the tow rope in her hand.

The wolves had been provoked, and they had not eaten for so long. When they saw so many people at once, they rushed towards them like crazy.

Those people didn’t expect the wolves to attack them, so they had to stop their charge toward Su Ying and turn around to deal with the wolves.

Su Ying didn’t intend to stand by idly and do nothing. She nudged her horse and quickly circled behind them. She whipped out her electric baton and immediately knocked one of the men to the ground.

Su Ying jumped off the horse and dragged him to the side. She took out a dagger and cut open the man’s pants, revealing the marking that had been imprinted on his inner thigh.

She grabbed another one to check and found the same marking on the side of the other party’s leg.

Su Ying lifted the man who had been electric-shocked until his limbs were numb.

“Speak. What do you guys want?” Previously, she had thought that these people just wanted to get what Lin Zhuyu had. However, now that they had their eyes set on her, it showed that their objective was not as simple as she had thought.

“Who the hell are you guys? Speak!” Su Ying’s fist landed on the man’s face, and his body flew out like a piece of tattered rag.

She turned around and grabbed another man. She kicked him in the chest and took out a silver needle to insert into the acupoint on his neck.

“Argh!” The man instantly rolled on the ground in pain.

The rest of the men wanted to come forward to save him, but they were trapped by the wolves and could not break away.

Su Ying stomped on his chest. “I’m not a patient person. I’ll ask you again. Who sent you guys here?”

The man spat out a mouthful of blood after he got stomped on. His body twitched as he said, “We… we’re the mercenary army. Someone… someone paid us silver to kill Xiao Jin.”

Su Ying’s eyes widened suddenly. “Then why haven’t you guys done anything yet?”

“After… after he leaves the country… the other party wants him to die… die outside the borders.”

“Who is that person?”

The man shook his head in pain. “Don’t… don’t know. We’re only in charge of receiving money and carrying out the deed.”

“Then why did you capture Lin Zhuyu?”

“The employer said that there is something important on her, but our guys didn’t find it.”

The most important thing on Lin Zhuyu was the evidence that could prove that her father had colluded with Xiao Jue. Since the other party had asked these people to look for the evidence, it must be because this thing would harm them. Therefore, the person who had hired these mercenaries was either Lin Zhuyu’s father or that bastard Xiao Jue!

Su Ying stomped forcefully on the man’s body, and his body stiffened suddenly. His head tilted to the side, and he stopped breathing.

Su Ying thought of the situation surrounding Xiao Jin and the rest and didn’t want to waste any more time. She whipped out a dagger and rushed into the battle to slit the men’s throats.

“Argh!”

Su Ying had taken down more than a dozen men in an instant. The wolves smelled the sweet scent of blood and excitedly devoured the corpses ravenously.

If what that man said was true, then Xiao Jin and the rest would still be safe before the group exited Yan City’s Western Pass. As long as she hurried back, she would still be in time.

Su Ying wiped the blood off her dagger on one wolf’s body. “I’ll give you ten minutes at most. Once you’re full, start moving.”

Under the wolves’ frenzied gnawing, the corpses on the ground were soon disfigured beyond recognition.

Su Ying put away her dagger and nimbly mounted her horse. When the time was up, she grabbed the tow rope, pulled the wolves along, and began dashing, regardless of whether the wolves were full or not.

The wild wolves were displeased, but they couldn’t do anything.

Su Ying rushed the horse so fast that the skin between her legs was almost worn out by abrasion. It was nighttime when she managed to reach the location where the group had stopped over.

She dismounted from the horse and looked for tracks of the group on the ground before continuing her pursuit on horseback.

However, when she reached a fork in the road, she found that the sensors had a strong reaction. It seemed that the group should be up ahead not far away.

Su Ying stood in the middle of the road and observed the change in the direction of the sensor. She realized that the reaction was even stronger when she stood at the entry of the other road. After confirming the group’s location, Su Ying mounted her horse again and continued on her way.

Meanwhile, the group was facing the strongest sandstorm they had ever encountered since they entered the Gebi Desert.

Li Da quickly took out a cloth to cover his head. When he came down this path, he knew that the situation here would be much worse, but he didn’t expect it to be so bad that they couldn’t even walk.

There was too much sand and dust, so Xiao Jin asked everyone to close the curtains and doors of the carriage. Everyone temporarily hid in the carriage and waited for the sandstorm to subside before going out.

After an unknown period of time, the swaying of the carriages finally stopped. Cheng Ming pushed open the door of the carriage, and a pile of sand cascaded down.

Many criminals were squatting on the ground, and the sand had covered the tops of their feet.

When Li Da saw that the sandstorm had subsided, he quickly got everyone to move. “Move faster, all of you. If you don’t want to die here, then hurry up and move forward.”

The unknown path ahead was terrifying. Even if the criminals were thirsty and tired, they could only endure it. They did not want to die here.

“Father, when will Mother be back?” The younger toddler Ling leaned on Xiao Jin. Although the children did not know anything, they could sense the emotions of the adults.

Xiao Jin held her in his arms and comforted her. “Soon. Mother will come back after she locates Uncle Jiang and the others.”

“Mother, come back quickly. Ling really misses Mother.”

Xiao Jin held Ling and frowned deeply. He didn’t know where Su Ying was or whether she was safe.

Even though he knew that she had the ability to protect herself, he couldn’t help but worry about her.

Due to the lack of water, gradually some criminals collapsed.

Li Da and the others only made a record after making sure that the person was not breathing, and then they continued to move forward.

When the sky darkened, the temperature plummeted. Everyone was shivering from the cold.

Aunt Zhao quickly took the blankets from the carriage and covered the two children. It was odd as they didn’t feel so cold last night. Why was it so cold today?

Li Da walked in front, not showing any signs of stopping even though he was shivering from the cold.

“It’s completely deserted here, so why don’t we just take action here?” The criminal who was walking at the back raised his head and looked in Xiao Jin’s direction. He spoke with a chilly, sinister expression as he observed Xiao Jin’s carriage.

The leader stopped in his tracks and glared at him. “Our rule is to follow the orders of whoever pays us. Don’t try to be smart here.”

“What’s the difference between dying here and dying outside the pass?” That man was unconvinced.

“If he dies here, he will still be a convicted Prince. If he dies outside the pass, he will just be a lost spirit without a nationality!” At that point, even if the Emperor remembered, he would not be able to pursue the matter.
