Now, he only hoped that the intruder would keep his word and allow them to take their leader away to complete their mission.

Qin Xiaoyao turned her head and looked at the mountain bandit who spoke.

The mountain bandits immediately avoided her gaze in fear. They didn’t dare to look Qin Xiaoyao in the eye at all.

Qin Xiaoyao gave an icy laugh. She then took the key from the table and tossed it at the mountain bandit.

The mountain bandit caught the key and quickly thanked Qin Xiaoyao.

“Thank you, brave hero! Thank you, brave hero!”

At the same time, he passed the key to his comrade and asked him to unlock the mountain bandit leader’s chains.

The mountain bandit leader was extremely excited when he saw them unlocking him.

The muffled sounds from his mouth became even louder.

Thereafter, he was quickly released from the torture rack.

After that, the two mountain bandits held him up and supported him as they prepared to walk out.

“Wait a minute…” At this moment, Qin Xiaoyao spoke up.

As soon as she said that, the three men froze.

A moment later, the mountain bandit who had asked Qin Xiaoyao for the key bit the bullet and raised his head to look at Qin Xiaoyao.

“Brave he… hero, do you have any other instructions?” He asked Qin Xiaoyao with a smile so strained it looked worse than a crying face.

Qin Xiaoyao was in no hurry to speak. Instead, she slowly walked toward the three of them.

The three of them were so frightened that they lowered their heads and avoided Qin Xiaoyao’s gaze, not daring to look her in the eye.

When she saw this, the corners of Qin Xiaoyao’s lips curled up into an icy smile.

After walking up to the mountain bandit leader, she suddenly reached out and grabbed the mountain bandit leader’s jaw.

Immediately after that, under the terrified gazes of the two mountain bandits, she quickly helped the mountain bandit leader straighten his dislocated lower jaw.

The mountain bandit leader was so terrified that he cried out in fear.

Following that, he realized that Qin Xiaoyao was actually helping him set his bones. Only then did he calm himself down and not have a nervous breakdown.

“Thank you, merciful goddess! Thank you, merciful goddess!” The mountain bandit leader said hurriedly after he regained his ability to speak.

At this moment, he also believed that this she-devil was really prepared to let him go.

The two mountain bandits who were supporting the mountain bandit leader were a little surprised when they heard the mountain bandit leader address Qin Xiaoyao as a “goddess.”

However, they still didn’t dare to raise their heads. They simply supported their great general without moving and pretended to be a tool.

Regardless of the intruder’s gender, it didn’t change the fact that she was a demon.

They still had to be careful and make sure they did not offend her.

The corners of Qin Xiaoyao’s lips curled up.

“I’ve already tortured you into this state, and you’re still thanking me?” she asked with a smile.

The mountain bandit leader’s expression froze.

Then he quickly said, “That’s because I deserve it! Please forgive me this time, merciful goddess. Ugh, ugh… ugh, ugh… In the future, in the future, I will definitely not make the same mistake again!”

Even as he spoke, his whole body was trembling.

Ugh, ugh… He really couldn’t hold on any longer… Just release him quickly…

Qin Xiaoyao pursed her lips.

“Alright then. Anyway, in the future…” She glanced at the mountain bandit’s lower body.

“You won’t be able to do anything anymore,” she said with a smile.

That smile was so acerbic the mountain bandit leader nearly had a breakdown.

In spite of themselves, the two mountain bandits who were supporting their leader wanted to laugh.

However, they didn’t dare to laugh out loud and could only hold it in.

As for Qin Xiaoyao, she felt his husband’s displeased gaze and finally cleared her throat softly.

“Ahem… This matter can be considered over and done with.”

The moment she said that, the mountain bandit leader and the other two mountain bandits heaved a sigh of relief.

However, Qin Xiaoyao continued, “But we still need to talk about what’s going to happen next.”

If

Please speak, merciful goddess,” the mountain bandit leader said hurriedly.

“Mm-hmm… Well, I asked for ten thousand silver from the people outside to redeem you. You know what to do when we go out later, right?” Qin Xiaoyao said.

She had carried out the kidnapping and had taken such a big risk this time. Therefore, she still had to collect the ransom.

“I know, I know! The silver notes should be offered to you as a sign of respect, merciful goddess. I will get them to hand over the silver notes when we get out!” the mountain bandit leader said hurriedly.

Qin Xiaoyao nodded in satisfaction.

“Mm-hmm. Since you’re so cooperative, I’ll tell you something.

“The second mountain bandit leader outside doesn’t seem to want you to live, and he doesn’t want me to release you…”

The mountain bandit leader’s expression changed at once when he heard this.

Qin Xiaoyao glanced at the mountain bandit leader’s expression and continued, “You’re still my hostage now. If you die, I will be his next target.

“And you’re so obedient. I’m sure you won’t make things difficult for me after we get out, right?”

The mountain bandit leader quickly nodded.

“So, I think we can work together.”

The mountain bandit leader was shocked. He raised his head and looked at Qin Xiaoyao.

“When we go out later, you cooperate with me and lure the second mountain bandit leader over. Then, I will help you kill him.

“After that, you will pay me an extra ten thousand taels of silver notes and let me go with my husband. How about it?” Qin Xiaoyao said with a solemn expression. This attitude was completely different from her frivolous demeanor just now.

The mountain bandit leader was caught by surprise.

He pondered for a moment and then nodded.

Number Two did indeed harbor thoughts of rebelling. Now that he was injured to this extent, even if he was released, there was a high chance that Number Two would plot something against him.

It was also good for him to use this opportunity to let the she-devil get rid of Number Two.

As for the matter of giving her another ten thousand silver, he would consider it if she was still alive at that point.

As long as he could get out of here, he had so many comrades outside. With their strength in numbers, they could still kill her, no matter how formidable she was.

Hmph! At that point…

“Alright!” the mountain bandit leader quickly said after making up his mind.

A trace of satisfaction flashed across Qin Xiaoyao’s eyes. She even reached out and patted the mountain bandit leader’s shoulder.

“Alright then. Let’s go!” she replied.

She turned around and walked out.

The two mountain bandits exchanged glances with each other and helped their leader along as they hurriedly followed her.

The great general was going to join forces with the intruder to kill the second leader? They had actually heard this news with their own ears.

What should they do next?

Of course, they should help the great general.

If the great general successfully removed the second leader, they would be credited with saving the great general and rewarded after they got out of this place.

As for the second leader, if he really wanted to harm the great general, they would be in danger too later.

When they thought of this, the two mountain bandits knew what they had to do.

Very soon, Qin Xiaoyao and the rest arrived at the entrance of the dungeon.

When the mountain bandits outside the dungeon saw their mountain bandit leader appear, various kinds of expressions swept across their faces.

Some of them looked happy, while others were pretending to be happy. The second mountain bandit leader was the latter example.

“Great general!” The second mountain bandit leader shouted excitedly at first.

Then, as if he had just noticed the mountain bandit leader’s injuries, he shouted angrily at Qin Xiaoyao, “What did you do to our great general?”

Hehe! The injuries on his wrists were so obvious. It was most likely his tendons were cut.

And there was a piece of clothing tied on his waist and hanging downward. What kind of injury was it covering?

If

Big Brother, oh my Big Brother! You have been tortured so badly that you are in this state now. You are really pitiful,” he thought.

The expression on the second mountain bandit leader’s face did not escape Qin Xiaoyao’s eye. The corner of her mouth curled up. “Can’t you see what has been done?

If

Now that I’ve brought him out, where are the silver notes I asked for?”

The second mountain bandit leader frowned.

Nonetheless, he gestured with his hand to the people behind him.

A mountain bandit immediately brought over a stack of silver notes.

Qin Xiaoyao’s eyes lit up.

“You are to personally bring the silver notes over to exchange for the hostage,” she said..
