Legend of the Heavenly Fruit
Eps. 101 — The Prisoners
Huang Li and Qiyao had already searched the headquarters of the Black Ant Organization as a whole, he found that there were nearly five hundred people held captive by the bandit organization.
The two did not find it difficult to infiltrate, although there were several guards but both of them were able to overcome them easily with their abilities.
"Sister, they're really this cruel..." Qiyao did not hide the anger in her heart seeing the conditions of the captives.
Huang Li looked back where the prisoners were now following his second steps. He sighed, unable to answer his sister's words.
Almost the people held captive by the Black Ant Organization were village women, when both freed them from the cells of the women who were not wearing clothes.
From the blank gazes of the women Huang Li and Qiyao understood what had happened to the women.
Huang Li could see both the physical and mental of the women were almost equally injured within, even some of them no longer had the zeal to live.
"I won't forgive them, I won't! Until I will never forgive them!" Qiyao clenched her hands in the air, still upset over the actions of the Black Ant Organization.
Huang Li sighed, he was actually no less angry with his sister but at this moment he was more focused on completing the mission. Huang Li and Qiyao were now walking out of the headquarters.
"Sister, I walk up first, if there's an enemy in front I can preach faster."
Huang Li nodded, letting his sister go to the surface of the ground first. Qiyao hoped that when she got there there were members of the organization to vent her anger but as she exited the headquarters, the girl found something shocking.
Huang Qiyao's stomach felt nauseous and her head became dizzy, the situation she saw was completely unexpected.
There were hundreds of corpses that were now lying around the headquarters of the organization, the corpses scattered everywhere and the fishy scent of blood smelled filled the air.
Qiyao could not see the situation any longer, she went back downstairs and told this information to her brother.
"Qiyao you're not kidding me, are you?" Huang Li gulped when he heard it.
"Sister, can I be kidding in a situation like this." Huang Li suddenly felt nauseous again. "Are all of the above actions the work of Brother Yuan?"
Huang Li did not immediately answer him, in fact they had no other answer than the young man. Huang Li knew Zhou Yuan was very strong but acting up to this was clearly beyond his expectations.
Huang Li sighed then asked the captives behind him to hold on to each other and close their eyes as they reached the ground level. Huang Li would guide them out of the headquarters area.
"Qiyao if you don't want to look at the situation above, you should close your eyes as well, let Brother lead you."
Despite not understanding what Huang Li was saying, the captives did not refute when it came to closing their eyes. They walk towards the ground.
Huang Li closed his mouth and nose when he saw the situation his sister was saying, it turned out that the situation was worse than he had heard.
Regardless of the number of bodies around it, almost all of the bodies killed there have separate bodies.
'Everyone was killed in one strike, this Yuan Brother, is he really a dozen years old?!'
Huang Li did not believe that Zhou Yuan could do such an event that even warriors who had lived for a long time in the martial world did not come to act like this.
Huang Li tried to keep his consciousness from leaving the sea of corpses and coming out of the headquarters area, only when they passed through the barrier of Huang Li's headquarters had everyone open their eyes again.
"I'm fine Qiyao, just my head is a little dizzy looking at the scenery inside."
Huang Li tried to keep his entrails from coming out, it would take a long time for him to forget the incident.
"Sister, where is Brother Yuan?"
"I don't know, maybe she-..."
Unfinished Huang Li replied, Zhou Yuan appeared in front of them. Huang Li and Qiyao were surprised to see the appearance of Zhou Yuan who was now dressed in blood.
The captives also reacted, they looked at Zhou Yuan with fear and considered the young man to be one of the part of the bandits.
"Sorry, the situation doesn't allow me to avoid splashing blood." Zhou Yuan smiled awkwardly.
Zhou Yuan had already chased after the rogues who had tried to run away from him, he was not sure that they had all been wiped out because there were too many of them but Zhou Yuan made sure that 80% of them had died in his hands.
With such an insignificant amount, Zhou Yuan was confident that the Black Ant Organization had no chance of surviving anymore.
On the other hand, the result of killing that much made Zhou Yuan's newly formed murderous aura grow even more and become even more concentrated.
Zhou Yuan's gaze turned towards the prisoners of the Black Ants, he could see the condition of the women being held in captivity had serious mental injuries. Zhou Yuan sighed, slightly understanding the situation.
Huang Li walked over to Zhou Yuan then gave him a large leather pouch.
"This brother Yuan is a treasure I gathered from inside the rogues headquarters. That's a lot of money."
Zhou Yuan nodded, the money was likely from the loot of the rogues when attacking the village. Zhou Yuan then whispered something into Huang Li's ear.
"Brother Yuan are you sure?" Huang Li was surprised, not expecting Zhou Yuan to tell him to hand out the spoils to the prisoners.
"They need more than us, of course if Miss Li doesn't mind I'll pay your share."
"Brother Yuan, I don't mind either, I think the same as you." Huang Li's face flushed.
Huang Li's gaze instantly turned one hundred and eighty degrees, initially he thought Zhou Yuan was a cold and dangerous figure given his previous actions but it turned out that Zhou Yuan was not as bad as it seemed.
Moreover, Huang Li did not blame Zhou Yuan's actions completely, if he currently had enough strength to deal with the organization, he might have acted similarly.
According to Huang Li, the Black Ants could not be allowed to live for too long or there would be as many victims as the women.
Following Zhou Yuan's direction, Huang Li began to distribute the money he had obtained from the bandits to the captives.
Of course any amount of money cannot heal their mental wounds but at least they can make a new life better.
'Time is the best healer of every wound...' Zhou Yuan smiled faintly at Huang Li and Qiyao who were handing out money to the captives. He hoped the mental wounds of the women would heal while living the next life.
