Chapter Eleven: Luoyang City

  With a momentum that was swift and decisive, Qin Lang solved the problem of Xu Ba Tian, giving the bandits a strong shock.

  "Cutting off one arm can save a life!" Qin Guang's words echoed among the crowd, and one by one, they recalled Xu Baitian being trampled earlier, as if the muddy mess on the ground was their own next example.

  Finally, a bandit could no longer bear the fear in his heart, gritted his teeth and swung the big knife in his hand towards his own arm.

  "Ah!" A miserable cry rang out, and then the one-armed bandit, gritting his teeth in pain, asked Qin Huang: "Hero, may I leave now?"

  "I said it before, cutting off one arm can save a life. You go."

  "Thanks!" The one-armed bandit tore off a piece of cloth from his clothes, tied up the stump of his arm, and without saying another word, turned around and left.

  Lost an arm and became disabled, at least can survive. But no one dared to be the first to escape. Once someone took the lead, others also made up their minds.

  Then, a burst of mournful cries echoed through the depths of Mount Baili.

  The next day, Qin Lang and Lin Yuqing were already sitting on a horse-drawn carriage.

  "Lang brother, I really didn't expect it, you're so amazing!" Lin Yuqing's eyes sparkled, the excitement in her heart still hadn't dissipated.

  "It's nothing, it's just that these bandits are too weak." Qin Lang waved his hand and said in a very low-key tone. However, he was laughing heartily in his heart.

  "But you're so capable, why did you have to drag me along and escape at the beginning? And then pull me into the water, making me drink so much water." Lin Yuqing pouted, gazing at Qin Lang with a resentful look.

  "Cough, this, uh, at that time... uh..." Qin Huan was really unable to come up with any convincing reason and could only stammer.

  "Alright, I know Brother Lang must have his own thoughts." Lin Yuqing found a reason for Qin Lang. In her heart, Qin Lang was an invincible hero.

  "Uh-huh, that's right. Hehe." Qin Lang chuckled and said, "We'll be arriving at Luoyang City soon, won't we?" Qin Lang turned his head to lift the curtain of the carriage window, looking outside, not letting Lin Yuzhen see his slightly embarrassed expression.

  "Uh-huh, I'll be back soon. After that, you can come with me to the Lin's house. However, Grandfather Lin and those guards won't be able to return." Lin Yuqing's voice trembled as she recalled desperately protecting Lin Feng and the Lin family guards, her heart aching with sorrow.

  "Don't think about those things, they are also loyal, you should treat their families well, so that they can rest in peace." Qin Lang gently patted Lin Yuqing's shoulder and comforted her.

  "Mm." Lin Yuqing quietly wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes and said softly.

  There was no more conversation along the way, and time flew by quickly.

  Luoyang City.

  One of the eighteen castles in Gyun County, located in the southeast corner of Gyun County. The Rak Castle has a heavenly army of 1,000 soldiers, equipped with uniform black armor, and its overall strength ranks seventh within Gyun County.

  "Wow, Luoyun City is so magnificent!" Qin Lang gazed at the city gate of Luoyun City and sighed in admiration.

  "Of course." As a citizen of Luoyun City, Lin Yuqing heard Qin Lang's praise and said proudly.

  "Come on, let's go into the city. It's been so many days since we returned late, our family must be worried sick." Lin Yuqing pulled Qin Cang's sleeve and walked into Luoyang City.

  The city gate guards didn't ask any questions at all. This young lady of the Lin family was known to everyone in Luoyang City.

  The city guards saw Lin Yuqing pulling someone into the city and naturally wouldn't interrogate her, but in their hearts, they couldn't help but raise waves of doubts.

  "What's with this Lin family little witch dragging a man around?"

  "Shh, keep your voice down, you don't want to get into trouble. If someone hears you, you'll be in for it."

  "Who is that man? He's actually alone with Miss Lin?"

  "You haven't seen Lin Xiaojie's appearance, it's just like a little bird relying on people, a good girl..."

  "Oh no!!! Is this guy Miss Lin's boyfriend?"

  "Even if he's not your boyfriend, this relationship is definitely not simple."

  "Awesome!!!" Every single one of the Heaven's Soldiers had this thought surging in their minds.

  Qin Lang didn't know about the gossip and rumors among the city's heavenly soldiers. At least in his impression, he still thought Lin Yuqing was just a obedient girl. However, it was precisely this kind of thinking that made Qin Lang happy in the following days. But all of this is a later story, let's not mention it for now.

  "Miss Lin, where is your home?" Qin Lang asked.

  "This is how it goes, Luoyang City is divided into outer city and inner city. The outer city is where ordinary people live, while some big families and officials reside inside the inner city."

  "Oh. So it's like this, then we must be in the outer city now." Qin Lang looked around.

  "Yes, our Lin family lives in the inner city. The inner city is also divided into three layers. The outermost third layer is where some ordinary officials and nobles live, while our Lin family is one of the three major families in Luoyang City, living in the second layer of the inner city. At the center of the inner city is the City Lord's Manor. The City Lord is the number one expert in Luoyang City, and all the heavenly troops in Luoyang City are under his jurisdiction."

  Qin Lang nodded secretly, it seems that everywhere is respected by strength, even this residence is determined by this strength. I suppose the Lin family's power is so great, his own small request should be just a word for others.

  "Don't worry, once we get home, I'll tell my father that you saved me, and the things I promised you, my father will definitely agree to them too."

  "Hmm, hehe, that's good, that's good." Qin Cang was also slightly embarrassed to have his thoughts seen through.

  "Eh, right, can you secretly tell me what kind of request you'll make?" Lin Yuqing curiously asked.

  "Haha!" Qin Lang smiled mischievously: "What if I told your father that I want to marry you? Would he agree?"

  "Ah! What did you say?" Lin Yuqing exclaimed, staring blankly at Qin Lang, unable to speak for a moment. Her delicate face had turned bright red, like a ripe apple.

  "Hmm, I told your father that I want him to marry you off to me!" Qin Lang raised an eyebrow and made a thoroughly lecherous expression.

  "How can you make such a request?"

  "Didn't you say you would grant me anything I asked for?"

  "I agreed, but that doesn't mean my father will agree. If you're not afraid of death, then go ahead and bring it up. As long as my father agrees, I have no opinion." Lin Yuqing had her hands behind her back, looking up at Qin Cang with her head tilted back.

  Qin Huan's eyes widened in surprise at Lin Yuqing's response, but he quickly changed the subject: "I think you should take me to the Lin residence now. I've fulfilled my promise to you and brought you back to Luocheng City."

  "Come on, hurry up." Lin Yuqing pouted and turned around to walk forward.

  Qin Lang followed behind, without seeing the crimson flush on Lin Yuqing's face that was like rouge, and the slightly upturned corners of her mouth.
