Chapter 107: Aftermath Settlement

  Three days later, Wu Ye Yu held Xiao Tao's hand with one hand and hugged a little loli wearing a colorful dress with the other. They continued to stroll through the slave market. The one being hugged was naturally the little wolf girl who had already been named Wu Xiao Yan. At this time, Xiao Yan looked completely new from head to toe. If she didn't open her mouth normally, she would be considered a standard cute girl. Although she liked to lean on Wu Ye Yu's chest, it seemed normal to others.

  But Xiaochan was still a baby, so she couldn't talk yet. All she could do was make "wah wah" noises and eat. And to make matters worse, she loved clinging to Wu Yeru and would follow him everywhere. If he put her down for just a moment, she'd immediately crawl back into his arms. Even bath time and bedtime were no exception, causing quite the trouble for Wu Yeru.

  "Eggs! It's all because of that crappy system! I didn't expect signing a slave contract would have this kind of side effect. Why don't other kids have any problems? At most, they just admire and respect me when they see me."

  Wu Ye Yu looked at Xiao Chuan holding a bunch of fruits in her arms and thought to herself, "Alas... it seems she's been neglected since childhood, not even receiving basic education. Hmm, after returning home, this needs to be added to the agenda too. Not to mention speaking in a short period of time, at least teach her to dress herself, sleep, and take baths first." After saying that, she glanced at Xiao Tao who was also eating fruits and secretly decided to leave things to her...

  Three days ago, after Wu Zongyue killed the old man in seconds, he checked the slaves with everyone. People who had been on the battlefield and those who hadn't were different. Under the command of Shi's father and son, the soldiers quickly stood up straight and formed a line, looking quite majestic. Even though some of them looked weak, their spirit was not inferior to others. Wu Zongyue couldn't help but laugh at the sight.

  That group of kitchen girls, seamstresses and healers didn't have much to say. After seeing the master of the house arrive, they all knelt down and paid their respects. After Wu Zongyue lectured them, he had these women get on the horse carriage. After all, these women were originally weak in body, with very few cultivators among them, and having just gone through the slave disaster, they needed to rest well to recover their energy.

  The seven boys and three girls, a total of ten children that Wu Ye Yu had bought, caught the attention of Old Man Yu. After carefully circling around them once, he didn't say much, but just stood there shaking his head in admiration. His gaze towards Wu Ye Yu also changed slightly, and when speaking, he showed more of an elderly person's benevolent demeanor.

  Wu Zongyue, who was standing beside him, easily judged that his young son had picked up a treasure again after seeing Yu Lao's performance.

  Although these children are young, their talent is definitely not inferior. As long as they return and cultivate them carefully for a decade or so, they will become an important force in the Wu family, absolutely worth the attention of this family head. Seeing these thin-armed and thin-legged weak children, still kneeling on the ground, seemingly able to be blown away by a strong gust of wind, Wu Zongyue hurriedly stepped forward, helped them up one by one, and personally carried them onto the carriage, instructing them to wait in the carriage for now, and promising to help them carefully nurse their bodies when they return. The effort to win people's hearts was obvious, and Wu Yeru, who was watching from the side, couldn't help but roll her eyes.

  I think these kids will be under me in the future, okay? You old man, what's wrong with you getting so worked up over nothing.

  A fight broke out at the slave market, which was a big deal that disrupted the city's peace and livelihood. Both parties involved were powerful cultivators, as evidenced by the brilliant lights and thunderous explosions that shook the sky. The destruction caused was even greater, so someone quickly reported the incident to the authorities.

  When Wu Zongyue and Old Yu finished reviewing their own slave troops, the official army finally arrived at this time, led by the lord of Linbo City himself, bringing more than a hundred armored guards to the scene. The reason for coming so late is that mobilizing troops indeed takes time, and the fact that the two sides fought without delaying too much, it was only a matter of ten or twenty minutes from start to finish.

  It seems that the lord of this castle is not a mediocre person, as he can gather his troops and rush to the scene in just over ten minutes, which can be said to be quick in action and good at commanding soldiers.

  After arriving at the scene with his troops, the city lord personally investigated Liu Jing Tang and his group who were already lying on the ground, and with the help of soldiers, dug out the half-dead old madman.

  Just as a row of soldiers and horses were about to come over with an imposing momentum to demand justice, after all, the situation on the scene was already very clear. The ones lying on the ground were the young master of the deputy city lord's house and a sword king expert in this city, and the remaining ones were also their followers. These were all familiar faces in this city, and except for Wu Ye Yu and his party, there were no other people present. If he still couldn't see what was going on, then he had failed as a city lord.

  At this time, Old Yu made his move. He emerged from the crowd of slaves and faced the guards holding knives and shields, treating them as if they were nothing. Just as the guards opposite him were about to draw their swords to teach this old man a lesson, Old Yu simply waved his hand at the city lord standing in front.

  "Sky, come here!"

  The people present were suddenly stunned, Wu Yeru, who was holding an assault rifle and preparing for a big battle, turned his head to look at Wu Zongyue when he discovered that this guy had always been calm and composed, obviously having known long ago that Yu Lao was acquainted with the city master of the opposite side. He couldn't help but silently curse: "Damn! Didn't even bother to give a heads up, didn't see me holding my gear at the ready?" Afterwards, he flung the firearm in his hand into storage space.

  As soon as Old Yu's voice fell, the city master flew over immediately and came to Old Yu's side. When he arrived, he first stopped to tidy up his clothes, then clasped his fists with both hands, bowed his waist, and respectfully shouted: "Uncle Yu!"

  Lao Yu responded with a simple "Hmm", then immediately pulled the city master, whom he had called Tian Yuan, to one side and whispered something in his ear. Throughout the process, the city master was seen nodding repeatedly, occasionally looking up to glance at the Wu family's side.

  After Old Yu finished, the lord of Linbo City immediately turned around and shouted at the group of guards who were still standing there in confusion: "This matter has been investigated by this city lord! The young master of Linbo City, Liu Jing Tang, gathered a group of local rascals and a crazy old man... with the intention of attacking His Majesty's personally appointed Qing Shui County Lieutenant Wu Zong Yue's son. The crime is extremely heinous, the facts are clear, and the evidence is conclusive. This city lord has now investigated this matter and orders! All the guards immediately take this group of scoundrels into custody, subject them to severe torture, and then conduct further interrogation!"

  "Yes! Sir!"

  The castle owner turned around and bowed to Old Yu after receiving the order, then slightly saluted Wu's family, and led the guards to take away the treacherous official who was lying on the ground. The crowd watching from this side were all speechless, really not expecting things to turn out this way, and it wasn't until half a moment later that they couldn't help but burst out laughing.

  After everyone returned to the inn, Wu Zongyue immediately found the shopkeeper to arrange for food and lodging. Fortunately, this Baifang Inn was large enough and had many rooms. If they had gone to a smaller inn, it would have been difficult to accommodate so many people at once.

  But the slaves, due to their physical weakness, hastily ate something, took a bath and fell asleep until noon the next day when most of them woke up. After putting on new clothes, they were arranged by Wu Zongyue to be taken back to Qing Shui Town by the groom, after all, it was not a good thing for so many people to stay in the inn.

  Of course, Yu and his son were left behind. Wu Zongyue seemed to say that he wanted to ask them about military training, but in fact, it was because he still didn't trust the two of them and was afraid they would run away with their own soldiers halfway through. However, this is also a normal human emotion. Yu and his son did not have any complaints about this and instead sincerely taught Wu Zongyue about military tactics.
