Chapter 153: Hundred mile delivery

Hong Yu was the smartest girl out of the three. Lin Mu Yu flew into a rage when he saw everything and charged over while roaring, “Shi Hai, stop!”

This person was one of the three remaining Gold Rangers, Shi Hai.

Shi Hai turned around and his eyes revealed a surprised gaze, but he quickly revealed a full smile. With that smile, he said, “Yo, Sir Lin Yan, you’re back already?”

Lin Mu Yu did not say anything else and pulled out the prairie sword, slashing down with a cold light at Shi Hai’s throat. If he had not moved in time, then he would have lost his head.

“Shua!”

Shi Hai lowered his head to dodge the sword and stood up while grabbing the spear against the wall. His face was covered in rage, “Lin Yan, do you really want to kill me you brat? Don’t forget, you’re just a brat that has joined us recently while father Shi Hai is someone that has fought for the Great Envoy for over ten years, do you dare to make a move against me?!”

Lin Mu Yu quickly moved forward and lifted Hong Yu up from the bed before asking, “Are you fine?”

Hong Yu’s face was covered in tears as she said, “It’s good that sir has returned so early……”

“I’m sorry, it was my mistake.”

Lin Mu Yu turned to look at Shi Hai and his hands tightly gripped the prairie sword. His face was covered in rage as a streams of creamy battle qi wildly concentrated around his hand holding the prairie sword.

Shi Hai’s courage disappeared seeing this and most of his intoxication was scared off. He just felt his back being covered in a cold sweat, “Heaven…..Heaven Realm? Lin Yan….Sir Lin Yan, we can talk things out. These women are just servants without a cent to their name, how could we let these low class women destroy the relationships between us brothers?”

Lin Mu Yu’s eyes were very cold as he said with a faint smile, “Who is your brother? They are my people and if you dare to move against my people, how could I be a man if I don’t kill you?”

“You dare!” Shi Hai quickly raised his spear and true qi condensed in his spear. He sent out a wind blade.

The prairie sword gently touched it and the spear was sent flying. The disparity in strength was too great, Shi Hai was just level forty seven, being in the second Earth Realm Tier and Lin Mu Yu was already over level sixty, being in the Heaven Realm.

“Pu!”

The prairie sword quickly pierced out, stabbing right into Shi Hai’s heart.

“Ah, ah, ah…..”

His eyes went wide as his face turned pale.

Lin Mu Yu slowly pulled out the sword covered in blood. His left fist went out and with a “peng” sound, Shi Hai was sent flying like being hit by an explosion. He broke right through the wall and landed in the fire pit that was roasting a whole lamb.

“Ah, Sir Gold Ranger Shi Hai?” Several Rogues were stunned, but when they saw the giant bloody hole in Shi Hai’s chest and his blank eyes, they knew he was dead. Instantly, the Rogues all felt their souls leave their body in fright as one person shouted out, “Murder……Murder. Sir Gold Ranger Shi Hai is dead…..”

People quickly came out with raised torches and very quickly, Lin Mu Yu’s yard was completely surrounded. This was a big day for their Swordsman Hall, with three Gold Rangers dying in a single day!

Lin Mu Yu was holding his prairie sword as he sat on the broken wall. He had a cold gaze as he looked at the various Iron Rangers, Copper Rangers, Rangers, and Rogues that wanted to ask questions, but didn’t dare say a word.

“What happened here?”

Ji Yang walked over with light steps and hands crossed behind his back. His face turned livid as he saw Shi Hai’s corpse and he said, “Who killed Shi Hai?”

“It was me, Great Envoy.” Lin Mu Yu’s voice was very calm.

“You?!”

Ji Yang knit his brows, “I wonder, why would sir Lin Yan kill Shi Hai?”

“He made a move on my woman.” Lin Mu Yu pointed at the room behind him.

“You……”

Ji Yang gritted his teeth and looked at Shi Hai, revealing a dark expression. After a few seconds, he suddenly smiled and said, “Brother Lin Yan was angered because of a woman, you really are a hot blooded youth…..But it’s fine. Shi Hai didn’t follow the rules and moved against a brother’s woman, so he deserves to die. Come, throw Shi Hai’s corpse off the mountain to feed the Swift Wolves.”

After saying this, Ji Yang took a deep look at Lin Mu Yu and said, “Brother Lin Yan, next time you can just tell me about this matter, there is no need to kill anyone. We are chivalrous men and don’t kill each other, that is the rule we have.”

“Yes, Great Envoy.”

Lin Mu Yu cupped his hands in a respectful manner, but he was wildly laughing in his heart. What chivalrous men? For a little bit of money and women, has there been a lack of slaughtering one another?

When Ji Yang led everyone away. Lin Mu Yu finally let out a sigh of relief, slowly loosening his grip on the prairie sword. If Ji Yang had really launched an attack against him, then it would have been a life or death struggle.

“Sir, are you alright?”

Hong Yu had already fixed her clothes. With tears covering her eyes, she said, “It is all Hong Yu’s fault for implicating sir, otherwise sir wouldn’t have had to kill that Gold Ranger for Hong Yu.”

Lin Mu Yu couldn’t help laughing as he said, “It’s not your fault, it was that Shi Hai searching for death. You can’t stay long on the mountain after what happened today, so I will prepare a plan for taking you off the mountain. Stay inside the room and wait for me. You aren’t allowed to go out, do you understand?”

“Yes!”

Hong Yu nodded again and again. Even Xiao Qin and the other girl also had faces covered in tears, they were probably terrified by what had just happened. When they entered Swordsman Hall, they had already been psychologically prepared to lose their chastities, but they never thought that Lin Mu Yu would kill a respected Gold Ranger just for them!

The bonfires roasting meat turned the sky red. Although Gold Ranger Shi Hai had died, the celebration of Swordsman Hall was not affected at all.

Lin Mu Yu put on a black cape and silently arrived at Luo Yu’s residence. After knocking on the door, Luo Yu’s voice instantly came from inside, “Who is it?”

“I’m Lin Yan.”

“Oh, I’m coming. Please wait a minute.”

Not long passed and Luo Yu opened the door after throwing on a tight fitting robe. Without saying anything, he allowed Lin Mu Yu to enter the room. He did not have any women here and lived alone. Luo Yu took out a wine cup and poured some wine for Lin Mu Yu before saying with a smile, “Sir Lin Yan killed Shi Hai for a woman…..Hai, you really have a big heart, only I, Luo Yu cannot cheer for you in public. Shi Hai was a perverted demon, ruining many virgins in this mountain. His death today truly was a retribution!”

Lin Mu Yu gave a bitter laugh, “Stop praising me. I came here to ask for a favour. I wanted to ask, do you have a way that I can safely send the three women in my room off the mountain and do you have a safe place to send them?”

Luo Yu was stunned, “Sir Lin Yan really want to send those women away?”

“Un.”

“Could it be…..” Luo Yu was a little surprised as he looked right at Lin Mu Yu and said, “Could it be that sir doesn’t like women?”

Lin Mu Yu was stunned and couldn’t help laughing as he said, “Luo Yu, what are you saying? Is there a man that doesn’t like women? However…..I already have someone in my heart that is a thousand times better than these three, so I will not touch them.”

“So it’s like this!”

Luo Yu gave a gentle laugh, “It seems like sir Lin Yan is a calm tempered person, but sending the girls down the mountain…..It will be a bit tricky. First we can’t let the guards see them, after all there are rules in the headquarters. In order to protect the secret of headquarters, the girls brought onto the mountain must die on the mountain and can never get off the mountain, so every horse carriage and cart would be thoroughly searched when leaving the mountain.”

“It’s like this…..”

Lin Mu Yu knit his brows and said, “Then can we have them dress up as Rogues and wear those clothes to go down the mountain?”

“We can do that!”

Luo Yu looked out the window and said, “Tonight isn’t very bright and there aren’t many stars, so the light is weak and we should be able to fool them. Does sir Lin Yan need me to help you escort them off the mountain?”

“No need, more people will attract more attention. You just need to help me obtain three horses and three sets of Rogue uniforms.”

“That’s easy! Only I wonder, where you will send the three of them to?”

“I don’t have any ideas right now.”

“How about this…..” Luo Yu thought for a bit and said, “As far as I know, there is clothes washing department in the royal capital that washes clothes for the rich. They recruit girls all year round, so if these three don’t have any friends or family, we can send them there.”

“Alright.”

During that dimly lit night, Lin Mu Yu pulled several horses back to his room and called out Hong Yu and the others. He had the three girls change into Rogue clothing and the white Rogue badges faintly sparkled in the dim light. It was a good thing the three of them knew how to ride, so they followed Lin Mu Yu down the mountain. When they reached the bottom, there were twelve Ranger guards sitting there, drinking and talking to one another. A person walked over and recognized Lin Mu Yu, immediately speaking in a respectful voice, “So it’s sir Lin Yan. I heard that sir will soon be promoted to the Envoy position…..This subordinate wishes to congratulate sir!”

“Thank you.” Lin Mu Yu gently said.

“I wonder, why is sir descending the mountain so late?”

“I want to take advantage of the night to kill some spirit beasts that only appear at night. What’s wrong, is there a problem?” Lin Mu Yu revealed a trace of anger.

“No, no…..” The Rangers immediately cupped their hands and said, “Then……Sir Envoy is descending the mountain, open the gates!”

The gate covered in spikes slowly opened and Lin Mu Yu urged his horse forward. Hong Yu and the other girls tightly followed behind him. He couldn’t help letting out a sigh of relief. It was a good thing that he wasn’t exposed, otherwise the consequences would have been hard to imagine.

Riding through the night, it took them close to six hours to reach Orchid Goose City. Seeing Orchid Goose City in the distance, Lin Mu Yu was a little moved. He was finally back, but it was a pity he couldn’t see Tang Xiao Xi and Chu Yao because of his duty, he could only wait until the next time.

“Here, this is for your living expenses.”

Lin Mu Yu took out a coin pouch that had around one hundred gold coins inside. As long as they saved a bit, it would be enough to last them for several decades. Lin Mu Yu did not dare to give them too much because gold coins could also take human lives.

“Many thanks sir…..”

Hong Yu was crying as she accepted the coin pouch. She looked at Lin Mu Yu with a gaze that was reluctant to part and said, “Sir Lin Yan…..If, if sir is willing, Hong Yu is willing to follow sir. I’m even willing to work as a concubine…..”

Lin Mu Yu couldn’t help smiling, while secretly complaining in his heart. He waved his hand and said, “No, don’t cause trouble for yourself. Hong Yu, with your beauty, you can become anyone’s legal wife. Alright, I can only help you up to here. Go ahead, I hope you will take care in the future.”

“Yes, sir…..”

Lin Mu Yu rode his horse away. The three girls knocked on the door of the clothes washing department and an old woman came to welcome them in, not thinking much of this matter at all.
