Become a Knight Across the World

Chapter 139 Spoiling the Younger Brother

"Tsk tsk tsk, so that's what happened. I never expected that my usually clueless and straight brother would ask me for help with something like this."

Li Yuejiao sat gracefully on the table, her slender fingers gently lifting Li Yuetian's chin. Her beautiful eyes were like torches, staring intently at him as if trying to see through him: "Tell me quickly, how are things going between you two? How far have you progressed?"

Li Yuetian stood frozen in place like a statue, his body taut, not daring to even breathe. Although the woman before him was his own sister, he needed her help now, so naturally he wouldn't dare to be disrespectful. "Last...last week, we went to see a movie together..."

"Hmm, not bad!" Li Yuejiao nodded in satisfaction, then released her grip on Li Yuetian's chin and chuckled, "I used to worry that you weren't interested in women! Turns out you know how to woo girls!"

"That girl's name is Lin Yue, right? Tsk—she actually got captured and sent to a den of thieves like X City! That place is quite dangerous; even my men and I try our best to avoid conflict with the people there." Li Yuejiao said, resting her chin on her hand, "It's no easy task to snatch her out of there!"

After hearing his sister's words, Li Yuetian felt his heart sink. Even his sister said this matter was so thorny and difficult to handle, could it really be...? In an instant, he collapsed to the ground like a deflated balloon.

However, Li Yuejiao suddenly stood up and flung open the door: "But, to ensure my dear brother's happiness, a mere X city! I don't even care about it!"

Having said that, she turned around without hesitation and strode swiftly across the high threshold, without even glancing back. Only her resolute words echoed in the air: "Yue Tian, ​​you can just wait here peacefully! Before dawn, I guarantee with my own integrity that our future sister-in-law will return here unharmed!"

In the blink of an eye, she had arrived at the door. At this moment, several people, both men and women, had gathered around her.

Her gaze was piercing, her eyes burning with fierce fighting spirit: "Pass down the word—all elite assassins of the Black Spider organization must assemble here before sunset!"

One of the men immediately bowed respectfully and replied, "Yes, sir!" Then he turned and hurried away to relay the order.

Li Yuetian stood there alone, staring blankly at the receding figure at the door. His sister's words had struck like lightning across the dark night, instantly rekindling a spark of hope in his previously despairing heart. He could no longer contain his impulse and dashed towards the door, shouting, "Sister! Wait for me! I want to go too!"

At the same time, he took out the Faiz transformation device. If he didn't reveal his identity now, his sister would definitely not feel comfortable letting him go with her.

...

He Yuan quickly made a shushing gesture, signaling everyone to be quiet, then quickly walked to the cell door, unlocked it, and whispered, "Shh, don't make a sound, hurry up and come with me!"

The girls hurriedly stood up and cautiously walked towards the cell door. They followed He Yuan closely, but they hadn't gone far from the cell when they all heard heavy footsteps and shouts behind them.

He Yuan frowned. "Oh no, we've been discovered." That's true. There are surveillance cameras there, and so many people make them a very conspicuous group.

But she didn't panic. She led the girls into a dimly lit alley. She had already familiarized herself with the route before coming here.

He Yuan acted decisively, pushing all the girls into a storage room while he hid around the corner outside the door.

As the pursuers closed in, He Yuan seized the opportunity and swiftly killed the man in front with a single, fatal blow to the throat. In an instant, chaos erupted among the others.

Just as the pursuers were thrown into chaos, He Yuan, like a ghost, flashed into the crowd. She gripped a gleaming dagger tightly in her hand, moving with the agility of a venomous snake as she darted through the throng.

Each swing of the blade carried a sharp whistling sound and deadly intent; the only sounds were the whistling of the blade cutting through the air and the splattering of blood. Before long, more than half of the once-aggressive pursuers had been killed or wounded.

The remaining men stared in horror at the murderous woman before them, their hearts filled with despair and fear. Seeing the situation was turning against them, they turned to call for help.

But He Yuan wasn't about to let it go so easily. She kicked the knife off the ground and hurled it with all her might. The sharp blade flashed like lightning, piercing the back of the last man with deadly accuracy. He collapsed to the ground.

He Yuan, slightly out of breath, coldly swept her gaze over the corpses scattered on the ground. After confirming that there was no longer any danger, she slowly turned around and pushed open the door of the storage room: "It's safe now, you can come out."

Hearing He Yuan's voice, the girls cautiously emerged from the dark corner. Their faces still showed lingering fear, but upon seeing the scattered corpses of their pursuers outside, a mixture of relief at surviving and dread over the dead revealed in their eyes.

Lin Yue was among them. She had wanted to come out and help, but she seemed to be handling things with ease, so she didn't.

Just when everyone thought they could relax a little, the passage ahead suddenly lit up.

Immediately afterwards, a series of neat and heavy footsteps sounded, and a small squad of fully armed and well-equipped soldiers rushed over, instantly blocking the way.

Faced with this situation, He Yuan's expression turned serious. She gripped the dagger tightly in her hand and stood firmly in front of the girls, not taking a single step back.

The soldiers made way for the Shadow King, who stepped out and said, "You wretched woman! Although I also hate the Shadow King, we're on the same side when it comes to external matters. But since you killed him, we're now locked in a life-or-death struggle!"

It turns out that when the Shadow King took over the group of girls, the Lustful King, who was still worried about them, still went to investigate He Yuan's identity and found out quickly.

He rushed to find the Shadow King, but only found the Shadow King's body lying dead in bed. He immediately ordered the area to be sealed off.

He Yuan stared intently at the several fully armed soldiers in front of him, a bitter smile on his face.

In the end, even the most meticulous plans can have a flaw, and a crucial step was overlooked. She thought she could easily shake off the enemy's pursuit and investigation, but she never expected that the lecherous guy would be able to find out her true identity in such a short time, without even knowing her name.

However, what's done is done, and no amount of regret can change that. But this unexpected event actually confirmed a suspicion that had been lingering in He Yuan's mind for a long time.

Thinking of this, He Yuan took a deep breath, turned around, and said in a low voice to the girls beside him, "Girls, the situation is critical, you must run away quickly! I will do my best to hold off these pursuers and buy you time to escape."

At this moment, He Yuan couldn't help but feel a little regretful. If she had hardened her heart and ignored the lives of these people, she would have had a good chance to evacuate safely before the base was sealed off.

But since things had already developed to this point, and there was no going back, she might as well go all the way and do a good deed to the end. She took out her dagger and prepared for a desperate fight.

Lin Yue wanted to step forward to help and show off, but soon she frowned.

Another small group emerged from behind the King of Lust. He Yuan saw the leader and his eyes flashed with hatred: "Cao Shou..."
