âHead Butler, I donât think I know your name yet?â Leng Ruoxue asked with some amusement as she looked at the uncomfortable bandits in the hall.
âMiss, my name is Wang Long. Iâm 55 years old, unmarried, donât have any bad habits, heightâ¦â The head butler heard Leng Ruoxue asking for his name and wanted to tell her all his ancestors. However, he was stopped by Leng Ruoxue.
âStop! Iâm not asking for your hand in marriage. You donât have to explain it so clearly,â Leng Ruoxue said helplessly with several black lines hanging on her forehead.
âUh! I thought Miss wanted to know more!â Wang Long said unpleasantly. He glared at the bandits, who were covering their mouths and laughing secretly, and felt a little depressed. Boohoo⦠He was embarrassed again!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âI just want to know your name. Second Butler, what about you?â Leng Ruoxue continued asking.
âMiss, my name is Wang Ren. My surname is Wang, but we are not related by blood. This is purely a coincidence!â the second butler said with a smile.
âGot it.â Leng Ruoxue was a little speechless. She finally realized why these bandits were so stupid. Alas! Could these bandits be smart with two such disconnected masters?
âHead Butler, arrange a quieter residence for us. We donât like to be disturbed!â Leng Ruoxue ordered again.
âMiss, the back mountain is the quietest. However, no one has lived there for a long time, soâ¦â the Head butler said with a troubled expression. He didnât dare to continue speaking halfway!
âIs it abandoned?â Leng Ruoxue asked in realization.
âYes, it has been abandoned for a long time,â the Head butler said honestly. Beasts would always cause trouble in the back mountain, so as time passed, the back mountain became uninhabited.
âItâs okay. There are so many of you. Cleaning up will be quick,â Leng Ruoxue said nonchalantly.
âOkay then!â the Head butler replied. He really didnât want Leng Ruoxue and the others to live on the barren back mountain, but since Miss wanted to stay, he, as her subordinate, couldnât refuse!
âMiss, itâs a little late today. Why donât you stay here for the night? Iâll bring them to clean up tomorrow morning, and then you can move in?â The Head butler carefully sought Leng Ruoxueâs opinion after some thought!
âOkay, okay.â Leng Ruoxue nodded in agreement.
âHehe, Miss, Old Masters, please follow me.â The Head butler bowed respectfully.
Leng Ruoxue and the others followed the Head butler to his residence. After making arrangements for them, the Head butler tactfully left.
In Leng Ruoxueâs room.
Leng Qingtian and the others arrived at the same time after the Head butler left.
âXueâer, these bandits are a big burden!â Leng Qingtian said helplessly. He had a rough understanding of the situation here even though he had only been here for less than an hour.
âLass, are you planning to raise these people for nothing?â Old Man Zao couldnât help asking.
âIâm not a savior. Iâm not related to them at all. Why should I raise them for nothing?â Leng Ruoxue said speechlessly. It wasnât easy for her to get some money! She didnât even have enough for her own people! How could she care about others? Moreover, she hated people who had hands and feet but wanted to reap benefits without working. Therefore, it was impossible for those people to count on her to raise them! However, she could think of a way to earn money for them, so they could rely on themselves. After all, robbery was not easy now!
âLass, didnât you already subdue them?â Old Man Zao asked in puzzlement. In his opinion, subduing should mean they are family, right? Why did the girlâs meaning seem different from what he imagined?
âIâm talking about taking them in. This place is so big, and our own people canât use so many places. Moreover, they have nowhere to go, so we took them in and continued staying here,â Leng Ruoxue explained. Those bandits were all mystics and their strength was not bad. Moreover, while possessing such strength would not mean to say that they could do whatever they wanted on the Boundless Heaven Continent, but it was absolutely not something to be underestimated. However, she was not too satisfied with those people because she could not see the characteristics of being a powerhouse or wanting to become a powerhouse in those bandits!
âOh, thatâs good.â Old Man Zao was relieved. To be honest, those people were still not worthy of his attention even if they were stronger than him.
âRuoxue, what do you intend to do with these people?â Lin Liang couldnât help asking.
âIâll ask the Head butler in detail about the situation in Myriad Mountain City tomorrow before making a decision!â Leng Ruoxue said after some thought. The little old man had only told them the general situation in Myriad Mountain City before he left, so she had to ask the butler about the exact situation.
âOkay, everyone should rest early today!â Leng Qingtian said. He was the first to leave Leng Ruoxueâs room after speaking, and the others followed closely behind.
After Leng Qingtian and the others left, Leng Ruoxue brought the freak into the bracelet.
âHehe, Xueâer, those bandits are really not suitable for you.â Empty appeared in front of Leng Ruoxue and the freak with a light smile.
âYes!â Leng Ruoxue was also a little regretful. Those bandits were not her cup of tea, but since she had already taken them in, she couldnât chase them out anymore!
âXueâer, I can tell you some things if you want to know about the situation in Myriad Mountain City,â Empty said with a smile.
âTell me about it.â Leng Ruoxueâs curiosity was piqued.
âMyriad Mountain City is very mysterious. No one knows how this city formed by mountains appeared, but it has its own rules. For thousands of years, countless families wanted to monopolize Myriad Mountain City, but they were unsuccessful. Therefore, there are many forces in Myriad Mountain City, and it is very chaotic. For example, the bandits in this mountain might not be weak, but their forces can only be considered to be the undercurrent in Myriad Mountain City.â
âEvery year, there will be powerhouses or mystics coming to Myriad Mountain City to settle down. Some of them are here for opportunities in Myriad Mountain City, while others are here to seek refuge because they offended some influential families. The terrain here is very complicated, so itâs not easy for those influential families to find a person in Myriad Mountain City even if they stretched their tentacles,â Empty explained.
