Kongjue was stunned when he heard this.
The child’s voice was soft and her eyes were clear and bright.
The afterglow of the setting sun made her hair glow with golden light.
It was as if she was a child who brought auspiciousness.
Gu Nuo’er pretended to be relaxed and comforted him with a smile. “I came here to save people. If I was afraid of death, I wouldn’t have come!”
After saying that, she tilted her head and fluttered her long eyelashes. “I’m really happy to know that you’re my brother! Because Seventh Brother is here,
I’m not afraid that those soldiers will continue to bully the villagers.”
Gu Nuo’er quickly turned around and ran far towards the village path.
She didn’t forget to turn around and instruct loudly, “Seventh Brother, I’ll leave the villagers of Ning’an Village to you! Let’s protect Father’s people together!”
“Nuo’er!” Kongjue exclaimed.
However, the child had already darted into the forest.
She wanted to take a shortcut.
Kongjue’s heart tightened.
The embers of the setting sun were quickly swallowed by the gradually rising night.
The black smoke that burned in Hedong Village became even more obvious.
Gu Nuo’er ran quickly through the forest.
However, she felt that this was really too slow.
Even if she used her powers to immediately fly to Hedong Village, distant water wouldn’t be able to extinguish a nearby fire!
Gu Nuo’er immediately stopped in her tracks.
She opened her small hand and flipped her fair wrist.
Her pink lips quickly chanted the incantation to summon wind and rain.
In an instant, the mountain wind surged and black clouds swept over from the horizon!
A strong wind that was about to rain blew across the entire mountain!
Muffled rolling thunder sounded endlessly.
Purple lightning moved like a spirit snake in the dark clouds.
Ye Siming had reached near Ning’an Village with his men.
“Reporting! Marquis, the Hedong Village in front was almost ignited by a group of officials.’
Ye Siming’s soldiers rode their horses back quickly to report.
However, the youth only sat on the horse with a cold expression and narrowed his eyes to look at the dark clouds condensed with mountain rain in the distance.
The air was filled with the smell of rain.
Censor Zhang, who was beside him, was puzzled.
“Just now, the setting sun was like blood and the sky was beautiful. Why is it suddenly going to rain?”
Ye Siming pursed his thin lips and didn’t say anything.
However, there was a hint of disdain in his long and narrow black eyes.
Those old men in the sky must have sent someone to help.
Otherwise, why would someone attract heavenly lightning to summon the wind and rain?
At this moment, thick smoke was billowing in the direction of Hedong Village.
His ears twitched slightly, as if he could still hear the wails mixed in with the wind.
There was no need to think about what the rain was for.
Censor Zhang also looked in the direction of Hedong Village.
After only a moment, he understood and said angrily, “Cabinet Elder Liu hurt people and lives behind His Majesty’s back. He is too audacious.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Siming clamped onto the horse’s abdomen and led five to six soldiers straight towards Hedong Village.
Censor Zhang chased after him and asked loudly, “Marquis! Where should we meet up?
“Go to Ning’an Village. I’ll go to Hedong to save people.” Ye Siming left these words without even turning his head.
Looking at his back view, Censor Zhang sighed.
When the sky turned dark, heavy rain poured down!
The thunder was deafening, and the gravel on the steep mountain was shaken and rolled down!
When Ye Siming rode into Hedong Village, the fire had already been extinguished by the heavy rain, leaving only charred remains.
He waved his hand, indicating for his men to capture the soldiers who were taking the opportunity to cause trouble.
However, at this moment, one of the soldiers panicked and turned to run.
Ye Siming immediately reined in his horse and chased after him.
The soldier slipped and fell beside the small path near the mountain path.
Ye Siming had just chased them here when a lady suddenly rushed down from the mountain!
Both of them were a little surprised when their gazes met.
In order to make it easier for her to cast spells just now, Gu Nuo’er’s figure was comparable to a young girl’s now. Her long hair draped over her shoulders and she was wearing a simple orange dress.
She had rushed over to save people, but she didn’t expect to encounter Ye Siming head-on!
