The eldest daughter, she is proud and sassy

Chapter 99 Accountability
The golden light sprinkled down, making everything in the dark alley invisible.

Mu Huo looked at the girl in scarlet clothes under the wall, and said in a commanding tone: "Cui Hengyue, come back with me."

"No, I won't go back." Cui Hengyue flatly refused.

She has worked so hard to get here, how can she give up so easily?
Mu Huo turned cold: "Then don't blame me for being ruthless."

After saying that, Mu Huo waved his hand, and the soldiers behind him rushed towards Cui Hengyue.

Not seeing the archer, Cui Hengyue felt hopeful in her heart, with her current skills, she might be able to break through.

While rejoicing, Cui Hengyue pulled out the fire stick from her back and quickly inserted it into the hollow handle of the short knife to form a spear.

She asked Shopkeeper Sun to prepare this fire stick, and it was delivered last night. She had to sharpen it for a long time before the fire stick and the dagger were perfectly integrated.

"Ding--"

The spear collided with the soldier's saber, making a crisp sound.

The next moment, the saber flew out, and the spear turned around, stabbing the frontmost soldier.

Cui Hengyue violently threw the soldier away.

The soldier knocked down the people behind, and immediately fell down with a "crash".

Cui Hengyue took the opportunity to jump onto the wall, and galloped along the wall, trying to escape from the roof.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he jumped onto the roof, a person appeared in front of him.

"Cui Hengyue, follow me back to Yunxuan Temple."

It's Mu Feng.

Without further ado, Cui Hengyue raised his spear and stabbed at him.

Mu Feng responded calmly. After catching Cui Hengyue's moves, he suddenly changed his movements, as fierce as a gust of wind, forcing Cui Hengyue to retreat again and again.

The two fought each other for a few moves, and Cui Hengyue realized that he was no match for Mu Feng, so he turned around and ran back.

After galloping along the top of the wall for only five or six zhang, Mu Huo suddenly jumped onto the top of the wall, blocking her way.

"Cui Hengyue, stop struggling, you won't be able to escape."

Mu Huo stared at Cui Hengyue, his expression was full of contempt.

Cui Hengyue stood on the top of the wall, looking down at the outside of the wall. The soldiers brought by Mu Huo pointed their knives at the top of the wall one by one, and when she jumped down, they raised their knives and slashed at people.

Looking around, the inner layer is full of people from the king of Chu, and the outer layer is full of officers and soldiers.

On the top of the wall, there is Mu Huo in front and Mu Feng in the back. These two are first-class masters. She can't beat them alone, let alone team up.

And inside the wall is the backyard of the Fulai Inn, and there are also dozens of strong men waiting to arrest her.

Just when Cui Hengyue didn't know how to get out, she saw a group of people rushing towards the periphery, as if they were negotiating with officers and soldiers.

Cui Hengyue's heart skipped a beat, could it be that someone came to rescue her?

When Cui Hengyue was full of hope, someone ran to the wall and reported to Mu Huo: "General, the people of Changshan County King reprimanded the officers and soldiers for blocking the way, and asked the officers and soldiers to leave here."

People from Changshan County King?

Could it be Song Mu who helped her escape in Yunxuan Temple?
Cui Hengyue's heart flashed with joy.

Mu Feng frowned: "I don't know who leaked the news and attracted people who are famous as county magistrates and Changshan county kings. General, I'll go and have a look."

Hearing this, Cui Hengyue was overjoyed, as soon as Mu Feng left, she would be able to escape from the south wall.

However, Mu Feng did not leave after speaking, but attacked Cui Hengyue like the wind.

At the same time, Mu Huo also attacked Cui Hengyue.

Cui Hengyue was shocked, and in a panic, she jumped off the wall and into the backyard of the Fulai Inn.

The strong men in the courtyard immediately surrounded Cui Hengyue tightly.

Seeing this, Mu Feng nodded at Mu Huo, then jumped off the wall and went to the outside.

"Ah——I'm fighting with you."

Cui Hengyue was so furious that she raised her spear and stabbed the surrounding strong men.

Mu Huo was sitting on the wall, watching the excitement leisurely. In his opinion, Cui Hengyue was already a turtle in the urn, and he didn't need to take action.

The shopkeeper standing in the corner whispered to shopkeeper Sun: "Shopkeeper, this little lady is also the master's savior after all, how can you let the King of Chu's people take her away?

"At present, there are quite a few of us staying in the inn, why don't you help the little lady break through?"

Shopkeeper Sun looked at Cui Hengyue who was dealing with the strong man in front of him, and lowered his voice: "There are only 20 of us staying in the inn, how can we fight against the King of Chu's people?
"What's more, the master told the king of Chu the whereabouts of the little lady, which means that the master has given up on her, and we can't reveal our identity for her."

"But." The guy still couldn't believe that his master would betray his savior.

Another clerk moved quietly, trying to get as close as possible to them, his deep voice was full of worry: "Shopkeeper, the master values ​​love and righteousness, and he will never betray his savior.

"I guess, the master must have encountered an extremely dangerous situation, and had no choice but to tell the whereabouts of the little lady, maybe."

Having said that, his voice stopped abruptly, as if he was very reluctant to say the following words.

And the guy who had been persuading shopkeeper Sun to save Cui Hengyue continued his words: "Maybe, the master's life is in danger, otherwise he would never do this.

"Treasurer, the top priority is, we should gather people and go to Yunxuan Temple to rescue the master."

Hearing this, the other guy nodded repeatedly in agreement.

Shopkeeper Sun paused for a moment, and then he said calmly: "Don't mess up your position, the absence of the Black Feather Order means that the master is not in danger of life at the moment.

"The reason why the master told the whereabouts of the little lady must be due to difficulties. I believe that with the master's ability, he will definitely save the day.

"Calm down, remember what the master said before, without his order, don't act rashly, so as not to reveal your identity."

After admonishing the two, shopkeeper Sun ordered again: "Pass down the order and act as usual, don't show any flaws."

After listening to the order, one of them quietly slipped out of the courtyard door.

One wall away, Mu Feng led people to the periphery, ignoring the people of Changshan County King, and first asked Mingyang County Magistrate: "Why did you order the officers and soldiers to surround this place?"

Mingyang County Magistrate also just rushed over, and wanted to see General Mu Huo, but was stopped by others, so he had to be surrounded by officers and soldiers.

Although it wasn't General Mu Huo who came, the county magistrate was very disappointed, but Mu Feng was the personal bodyguard of the King of Chu, so he didn't dare to underestimate him either.

"Mingyang Town is located at the foot of Mount Heng, not far from Yunxuan Temple. Thanks to King Chu's protection these years, the people can live and work in peace.

"I heard that a fugitive had sneaked into the Fulai Inn in Mingyang Town and alarmed General Mu. I was terrified, so I led the officers and soldiers to arrest the fugitive and pay off the crime."

Sure enough, someone tipped off the news and fabricated rumors.

Mu Feng's face darkened: "Nonsense, there are no fugitives sneaking into Mingyang Town, and we are not here to arrest fugitives, but to deal with private matters.

"If you don't go away quickly, if you disturb the hearts of the people, I will ask you."

Hearing this, Mingyang County Magistrate turned pale, bent over and said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, I will let them retreat now."

"What a big breath!"

An untimely voice sounded.

The next moment, the surrounding officers and soldiers retreated to the sides, Song Mu came out from behind, and looked at Mu Feng coldly: "When will the government affairs of Mingyang Town be under the control of the King of Chu?"

Mu Feng secretly thought that it was not good to let the people of Changshan County King seize the opportunity, and hurriedly said: "The King of Chu has been away from the court for many years, and the government affairs of Mingyang Town naturally do not belong to the King of Chu.

"Besides, the King of Chu has no intention of interfering."
