DEMON QUEEN
Yangrang
After arriving at the border region of the Moon Kingdom, Xiao Ziya opened the map given by the old grandfather to see the route he had to cross to reach Elnz Village. Xiao Ziya raised next to his eyebrows as it turned out that he had to go to the Moon Kingdom border in the other part, the girl rolled her eyes pushy then darted towards the southern gate. The soldiers of the southern gate guards stared at Xiao Ziya with astonished gazes, not usually their new leader traveling through the southern gate.
"Where is Big Miss Xiao Ziya going?" asked one of the gate guard soldiers with a big smile, he was happy to see the new leader.
"I want to go to the south, see you later" said Xiao Ziya who immediately darted away leaving the southern border guards.
Xiao Ziya did not have much time to chat with the soldiers even though he wanted to, establishing good communication was important. The soldiers of the southern gate guards stared at the departure of their new leader with a puzzled look, it was fortunate that one of the soldiers understood that currently their new leader had another task to do. Xiao Ziya's first destination was the Black Sand Forest Region, the place could be reached within three days and three nights if one were to walk at medium speed but with the current speed of Xiao Ziya it would probably only take one day and one night.
On the way to the Black Sand Forest Region, Xiao Ziya would stop by at some nearby villages. While darting at high speed Xiao Ziya had seen a girl his age who was being chased by several men with creepy faces, curious about what was going on, Ziya finally jumped the mistake of one teak tree and hid behind dense foliage.
"Give us the painting." Triak one of the men in black and glare sharp eyes creepy, the six men continued to pursue the girl relentlessly.
"I will bring this painting back to Ming Tuo Kingdom" said the girl, trying to escape from the pursuit of the six forest bandits with all her energy. If his efforts fail at least he does not give up just like that.
"Free because you will never be able to leave this place" said one of the forest bandits with a voice of laughter that made Xiao Ziya hurt her ears.
"At least I'm not handing over this painting of Lord Hiloz to people like you" the girl said stubbornly.
Xiao Ziya thought for a moment as the girl mentioned about the painting of the God Hiloz, why would they fight over the useless painting? in the residence of Lord Hiloz himself many paintings of his face that made Xiao Ziya a little fed up when visiting there. To Xiao Ziya the painting of God Hiloz was not important but to the girl named Yangrang the painting was like her own life, King Ming Gu entrusted him to take the painting of the god from one of the artists living in the middle of the forest. It seemed that information regarding the painting had leaked to some enemy party so they hired forest bandits to snatch it from Yangrang.
"Stop chasing me, why don't you ask the artist to make a new painting." yangrang triak was upset.
When the running arrived the girl fell because she did not see a large wooden trunk lying in the middle of the road, the bandits smiled because their fugitives were in an unfavorable condition. One of the bandits approached Yangrang, trying to snatch the scroll of the painting the girl was carrying. Although the painting of God Hiloz was useless to Xiao Ziya, the girl would not let the painting fall into the wrong hands.
Xiao Ziya plunged free from the top of the teak tree to the surprise of the six forest bandits who were looting Yangrang, the bandits stared at Xiao Ziya with annoyed gazes at thinking that the girl had been sent by someone else to snatch the painting as well. Gaining the cynical gazes of the six ugly men before him made Xiao Ziya's emotions peak, the girl wanted to pry the six bandits' eyes out.
"Go don't interfere with our affairs" said several bandits who tried to expel Xiao Ziya.
"Hey this is not the forest that belongs to your grandmother." Xiao Ziya replied with a flat look.
"Currently, get out of front of us before we change our minds" said one of the forest bandits who was threatening Xiao Ziya. The threat from the bandit bandits did not make Ziya feel afraid.
"Please save me miss, I will return your favor later." said Yangrang, he hoped the foreign girl would help him free from the six bandits.
Xiao Ziya looked towards the girl who was slumped on the ground then extended her hand to help the girl stand up. Yangrang received a helping hand from Xiao Ziya then stood back up, he cleaned his dirty clothes as it fell to the ground.
"Who's your name?." asked Xiao Ziya with a flat look.
"My introduction to Yangrang from Ming Tuo Kingdom, I know you are not a bad person who wants to seize the painting of Lord Hiloz because of that I ask for help from you." said Yangrang who introduced himself to the foreign girl in front of him, when viewed from various sides it is very clear the foreign girl was passing through the teak forest area and accidentally met her who was being chased by forest bandits.
"I am Xiao Ziya from the Moon Kingdom, happy to meet Miss Yangrang." Xiao Ziya replied with a faint smile.
The six bandits felt ignored by the two weak girls before them, a bandit took out a spear then he threw towards the foreign girl who was interfering with their hunt. Xiao Ziya swiftly caught the spear and burned it to ashes using the black flames he had, Xiao Ziya turned his face towards the bandits and stared at them intently.
"Are you blind so you don't see me talking to Miss Yangrang!" Xiao Ziya snapped at the six bandits. For some reason the bandits felt fear just by hearing the voice from Xiao Ziya, they felt an immense pressure from the girl.
"You prevented us from taking the painting of Lord Hiloz out of the girl's hands" said two forest bandits simultaneously, if the girl named Xiao Ziya had not come they might have gotten the painting.
One of the forest bandits suddenly became dazed, he had felt familiar with the name Xiao Ziya from the Moon Kingdom and after recalling who the girl the bandit was afraid of. The news of a girl from the underworld who had defeated King Anling Zee had spread throughout the entire region of the Eternal Human World, the girl who slaughtered the Moon Kingdom family so viciously and late this he also did a stirring thing by satisfying the Mue Clan of Yuan Liong Kingdom.
"I'm sorry that we didn't recognize the great Miss Ziya" said the bandit, asking another friend to prostrate and asking Xiao Ziya for forgiveness.
"We don't plan to kill Miss Yangrang, we just want to seize the painting according to the young master's orders" said another bandit with a trembling body, it seemed like the six of them had already remembered who Xiao Ziya was.
Yangrang stared towards the six bandits and Xiao Ziya in turn, the girl did not understand what was going on or who Xiao Ziya was to be able to make the famous cruel and violent forest bandit tremble and willingly prostrate under his feet.
"Who asks you to commit a crime like this, even if you do not want to take Miss Yangrang's life your actions remain unjustified" Xiao Ziya said with a serious look.
"The dry season is coming soon and we need to make more money to meet the needs of our family during the dry season" replied one of the forest bandits honestly, Xiao Ziya stared fixedly at the bandit's eyes and found no lies within his bead.
"Tell me who asked you to do this?." asked Yangrang, it seems that the girl was also curious about the person who wanted to snatch the painting of Lord Hiloz from her.
Xiao Ziya looked around because he felt a strong killing aura even though it was a good distance away from where they were, Xiao Ziya tried to sharpen his eyes and pierce through the dense forest to see what was going on there.
"Take us to the settlement where you live, right now a general and thousands of soldiers are going towards that place" Xiao Ziya said with a serious look on his face, the six men were forced to become bandits and they were only in action today. In everyday life they are farmers who grow rice and vegetables.
"Let's come with me" said a bandit who immediately ran to the settlement where he lived with his family and other friends.
Immediately Xiao Ziya withdrew Yangrang's hand for the girl to also leave together with him. Yangrang could only resign as his hand was pulled by Xiao Ziya, the girl was trying to keep up with Xiao Ziya's speed. After running for quite a long time they all arrived at a place consisting of twenty wooden houses as well as a fairly wide field, Xiao Ziya smiled faintly when he saw such a scene.
"I hope you don't repeat the same mistake that Prince Yanzi has basically ordered the soldiers to besiege this place." xiao Ziya said with a slanted smile when he heard the sound of the sole of the horse's foot very clearly.
Hearing Xiao Ziya's words made the six men who had just worked as bandits become worried, what if the soldiers from Ming Tuo Kingdom really came to capture all of them. So this is the real plan of Prince Yanzi, he wanted to blame the six men he hired for the death of Yangrang because the six men wanted to seize the painting of Lord Hiloz from the hands of Yangrang and then sell the painting.
"What should we do Miss Ziya?" asked one of the men with a puzzled look, their strength was not enough to deal with the thousands of warriors from Ming Tuo Kingdom.
"Maybe I can do something to help you guys, who is the leader in this settlement?" Xiao Ziya asked in a serious tone.
"My introduction is Luan Yu, the leader in this settlement" said one of the men from the six forest bandits.
Without further ado, Xiao Ziya took out an empty scroll as well as a brush and ink to write the letter of agreement, instead, in the letter of the treaty Xiao Ziya would be in charge of the residential area and meet the needs they needed on behalf of the Moon Kingdom. Xiao Ziya also gave some conditions such as being prohibited from plundering nobles or cultivators who were passing in the teak forest, and many other requirements. After he finished writing the letter of agreement, Xiao Ziya gave a special stamp that only the leader of the Moon Kingdom had.
"You can sign this agreement if you agree to all the terms that I have written Mr. Luan Yu" Xiao Ziya then handed the scroll to the leader of the settlement.
Luan Yu skimmed the contents of the agreement that Xiao Ziya had just made, for some reason his eyes felt hot and wanted to cry. After a long time there is finally a kingdom that wants to accommodate them all and provide food supplies and other needs to the settlement in the middle of the teak forest. Without further ado Mr. Luan Yu signed the treaty.
"Thank you for the kindness of Big Miss Xiao Ziya, we will not forget your kindness." said Luan Yu, the man bowed his body before Xiao Ziya followed by five other men.
"Get into the settlement, this matter leave it to me. Remember well the contents of the agreement because I can destroy this settlement whenever I want if you break it" Xiao Ziya said firmly.
"We will not disappoint you" said Luan Yu then invite the five other men to enter the residential area.
"Why is Miss helping criminals like them?." asked Yangrang with a puzzled look, Xiao Ziya should have killed the six bandits so as not to harm others in the future.
"Is Miss Yangrang a noble? is your family always giving you what you want?." Xiao Ziya asked the girl with a cold look.
"You could say my family is quite rich and always gives me what I want." replied Yangrang casually because it was the truth.
"That's the color you don't understand how hard it is for them to make money to make ends meet, in this harsh world many people are forced to do dirty work to support their families" Xiao Ziya said.
Not long after that Xiao Ziya saw a man riding a brown horse in a full battle suit that he was wearing, behind the man was a thousand soldiers who were ready to destroy the settlement where the bandits lived.
"Miss Yangrang is fine?." asked the general who got off the horse he was riding and walked closer to Yangrang.
"I'm fine, you don't have to worry about my safety." Yangrang replied briefly, after hearing Xiao Ziya's words earlier he felt a little disappointed in himself for not being able to understand the situation well.
"We have come to save you and kill the bandits who wish to harm your life" the general said sternly, while Xiao Ziya only stared in a careless manner at the general.
"No bandits disturbed me on my way home, I had a conversation with this lady." said Yangrang who lied before the general because he wanted to protect the people who live in the settlement.
"How could there be no bandits chasing you on the way home, Prince Yanzi reported that to us. Or maybe this girl is part of a group of bandits who want to take the Painting of God Hiloz" said the general who instead accused Xiao Ziya.
"You want to die right now?." asked Xiao Ziya with a sharp look and a serious tone of speech.
"It's more polite on our windows!" snapped a few soldiers behind the general.
"Why should a leader from the Moon Kingdom submit to a general?" asked Xiao Ziya with a slanted smile that felt like he was mocking the soldiers defending the general.
