I'm About to Die, Can't I Buff My Junior Sister's Strength?

13: A young man in white entered the Huang family and wreaked havoc everywhere!The City Guard Commander looked at Xiao Qinger’s retreating figure, a thoughtful expression on his face.

He felt like he had seen this woman somewhere before... Forget it. He needed to stay vigilant; something major was likely to happen in the next couple of days.

The Commander stopped pondering and focused intently on every commoner entering the city.

Because just last night, the Huang Family, the number one Family in Yunzhou City, was surrounded by the Demon Suppression Division. Although the news hadn’t fully spread, the commotion was too great, and since he lived nearby, it was impossible not to hear it... At this very moment.

Deep within the Demon Suppression Division General Headquarters in Yunzhou.

An elegant and quiet courtyard.

Several figures stood heavily, not speaking a word.

The Demon Suppression General who had previously appeared at the Ancient Temple had a frighteningly cold expression, tightly gripping the Great Saber in his hand.

Xia Youyue sat upright on a wooden chair, her eyes tranquil.

”Lord Inspector, did the General... truly betray us?” Finally, an old man with white hair, clad in Black Armor and bearing three Dragon Patterns on his sleeves, asked in a deep voice.

Yunzhou’s Thirteen Cities each have one Demon Suppression General guarding them, all taking orders from the General.

This Elder was one of them. He had once followed the General, slaying countless Yao and achieving extraordinary merit. He was the only one who dared to utter the word ”betrayal” at this moment.

As his voice echoed, all the Demon Suppression Generals cast solemn gazes toward the slightly thin figure.

”Yes.” Xia Youyue replied softly, her expression remaining perfectly calm, without the slightest ripple of emotion.

”He should be killed!” the white-haired Elder roared, his eyes filled with intense murderous intent and disappointment.

”That bastard Chen Gang! Great Xia treated him well, so why did he choose to defect to Xuan Guang Cave and destroy all the evidence for the Huang Family? Now that Huang Li is dead and Xuan Guang Cave is protecting them, is there truly nothing we can do about the Huang Family?” another Demon Suppression General spoke, his eyes brimming with coldness.

”Lord Inspector, as long as you give the order, your subordinate will immediately lead troops to flatten the Huang Family, execute them first and report later, and then capture that scoundrel Chen Gang! Let’s see what Xuan Guang Cave can do then!” The Demon Suppression General gripping the Great Saber suddenly cupped his hands and spoke fiercely.

”Absolutely not!” a Demon Suppression General immediately interjected.

”The Huang Family Clan Chief now possesses Late Golden Core Stage strength. Not to mention Chen Gang and the Outer Sect Elder from Xuan Guang Cave are both at the Peak Golden Core stage. If they are determined to flee, we won’t be able to stop them. What awaits us then might not be the Yao Race, but the Elders of Xuan Guang Cave and the Huang Family Old Ancestor...”

”Our Great Xia also has Primal Great Grandmasters!”

In Great Xia, Body Cultivators in the Nascent Soul Stage are also called Primal Great Grandmasters.

”Not to mention that the Nascent Soul Stage Martial Cultivators of our Great Xia currently cannot spare the time. Even if they could, they probably wouldn’t dare to act, as the strength of Xuan Guang Cave is not something Great Xia can directly clash with...”

”I know what you are all thinking. Among the Three Sects, Sunset Valley is not skilled in warfare, focusing mainly on Alchemy and Artifact Refining. Although the Heavenly Sword Sect is strong, it has too few people—all nine Mountain Masters are busy resisting the Demon Emperor. Furthermore, there was an agreement made years ago that the Three Sects would not interfere with the territory governed by the others, unless a request for aid is made...”

”Therefore, asking the other two Sects to intervene is basically impossible...”

”Even if they knew, it’s highly unlikely they would offend the strongest Xuan Guang Cave just for a small Yunzhou.”

Once these words were spoken, everyone fell silent for a moment.

”Are we just going to let the Huang Family get away with taking the lives of so many common people?” the Demon Suppression General gripping the Great Saber gritted his teeth and said angrily.

No one responded.

Xia Youyue, who had kept her eyes closed, slowly opened them. Her expression was indifferent, having already made a decision internally.

”Pass on my order: All Thirteen Cities’ Deputy Generals, assemble at the Yunzhou City Gate within one hour!”

”Your subordinate accepts the order!”

The Demon Suppression General gripping the saber immediately showed Battle Intent and cupped his hands. The Demon Suppression Generals who hadn’t spoken also showed resolute expressions. When a decision hasn’t been made, suggestions and considerations are acceptable, but once an order is given, the Demon Suppressing Army obeys unconditionally!

Even if it meant fighting their way into Xuan Guang Cave, they wouldn’t frown.

However, at this moment.

Bang!

”Report!”

A figure rushed into the courtyard, kneeling on one knee, his face filled with shock.

”Just now, a white-robed youth entered the Huang Family compound and slaughtered everyone; not a single person survived...”

...Inside Yunzhou City, a glance revealed that the Blue-Brick Avenue, wide enough for ten carriages to travel abreast, was packed with people. Various buildings were constructed on both sides, some resembling skyscrapers... This made Shen Nian feel a sense of déjà vu, as if he had returned to a bustling metropolis.

”Wow, what a handsome Young Master! Look, sisters!”

”Hiss... He’s too handsome! Which Family’s Young Master is this? Introduce me quickly!”

”He doesn’t look like someone from Yunzhou...”

Many women around them, upon seeing Shen Nian, either lowered their heads blushing or threw him flirtatious glances. Even elderly women couldn’t help but take extra looks.

Shen Nian paid no attention to these gazes, while Xiao Qinger beside him said with a strange expression, ”Senior Brother, it seems more people are looking at you. This doesn’t seem very low-key...”

Hearing this, Shen Nian didn’t speak, walking calmly forward as if he hadn’t heard. Xiao Qinger pouted and followed.

The two then arrived at an Arch Bridge where there were relatively few people, and clear stream water flowed beneath.

They saw a bitter-faced Elder walking toward them. His aura was weak, and the bloodstains at the corner of his mouth had not yet dried, clearly indicating a recent injury.

After the Elder walked past Shen Nian, his body suddenly trembled, and he stopped directly in front of Xiao Qinger, showing an expression of disbelief.

”Young Miss?!”

”I thought this old man was seeing things!”

”Uncle Fu~” Xiao Qinger recognized the person and called out with a smile.

Uncle Fu was her Xiao Family’s Steward. Although his status was that of a servant, in Xiao Qinger’s eyes, he was no different from an Elder. Most importantly, during the time she lost her cultivation, Uncle Fu had comforted her extensively.

But the next second, Xiao Qinger frowned and asked seriously, ”Uncle Fu, how did you get injured? Was it that bitch Xiao Hui?”

”Alas~” Uncle Fu sighed deeply and shook his head, despair flashing in his eyes. He then glanced at the white-robed youth standing nearby and smiled, ”This old man is fine. This isn’t the place to talk, Young Miss, look...”

Xiao Qinger immediately walked beside Shen Nian and introduced him, ”Don’t worry, Uncle Fu, just speak frankly. This is my Senior Brother, he’s one of us.”

Hearing this, Uncle Fu was slightly stunned.

Senior Brother?

The Young Miss truly entered an Immortal Sect!

Good, good, good!

That’s wonderful! If that’s the case, at least the Young Miss won’t have to worry about retaliation from the Huang Family later... Immortal Sects also have different ranks, and Uncle Fu didn’t believe this young Senior Brother could change anything, after all, the one stationed here was an Elder of Xuan Guang Cave!

Immediately, Uncle Fu respectfully bowed to Shen Nian and said, ”Lin Fu, Steward of the Xiao Family, greets the Lord. Young Master may simply call this servant Ah Fu...”

Shen Nian nodded slightly, then signaled for them to continue. Although he was in a hurry, he didn’t mind sparing this little bit of time.

The next second, he gently waved his hand, and a transparent barrier enveloped the three of them. The surrounding commoners couldn’t hear their conversation at all.

”Speak. They can’t hear.”

Seeing this miraculous method, Uncle Fu felt much more at ease before speaking.

It turned out that last night, the Yunzhou General suddenly surrounded the Huang Family and also sent orders to the Xiao Family, asking them to assist. The Xiao Family naturally obeyed, as their ancestors had served in the Demon Suppression Division for generations; it was only in the past few generations that they transitioned into business.

But when the Xiao Family Clan Chief led the Xiao Family elites with their weapons and went there, they discovered...
