The Redwolf Bandits of today were no longer the Redwolf Bandits of the past. Their head had turned into a devil and had gone missing, their third head and numerous captains were slain, and a large number of regular bandits had been killed as well. Only about a third of their original numbers remained, and they were filled with woe.
If it wasn't because the second head, Mo Mo, was still rather capable, the Redwolf Bandits would have disbanded then and there. Currently, Mo Mo was fretting in her room, feeling lost over what her next step should be. If they remained in the stronghold, she would not be able to stop the young man if he came back for them. But if she allowed the Redwolf Bandits to disband, her hard work over the years would have been for nothing. She could not accept that either.
After some thought, she finally decided to stay. She was born a bandit and knew no life outside of banditry. If she had to disband the Redwolf Bandits, she would have nowhere to go. Right this moment, a cry of alarm rang out, "Shit! Second head, that kid is here again!"
Mo Mo's eyes twitched as she stood up with a worried expression.
After standing there for a bit, she looked at the mirror, slowly stroked the seductive curves on her body before licking her lips, and said, "I refuse to believe that I won't be able to take care of that brat with my charm!"
She then walked out of the room and rushed to the gate. The remaining members of the Redwolf Bandits were gathered, but not a single one of them dared to charge outside. All of them stood there staring at the youth who was slowly walking toward them, their hearts enveloped in fear. Who could the youth be if not Xiang Shaoyun?
Xiang Shaoyun was here to complete the mission he had accepted. But of course, that was not his main goal. Before he arrived, Mo Mo's charming figure appeared before the gate.
She wasn't particularly beautiful, but she was incredibly seductive and alluring. Numerous bandits lusted after her, but since she was the renowned Lady Red Scorpion, nobody dared to touch her. After all, if one touched a scorpion, one would be stung. Before Xiang Shaoyun arrived, Mo Mo rode forth on her mount.
"Young hero, the second head of Redwolf Bandits greets you," said Mo Mo as she cupped her fists and saluted Xiang Shaoyun.
With a random weed in his mouth, Xiang Shaoyun looked at Mo Mo lazily and said, "I am here for your head. You actually dare to come meet me like this?"
Mo Mo got off her mount, shot Xiang Shaoyun a seductive gaze, and said with an enchanting expression on her face, "I am here to surrender. Can you bear to harm me?"
As she spoke, she unfastened the button on her chest, revealing the most seductive part of her body. Xiang Shaoyun did not hold back and allowed his eyes to feast on her body. He smiled and said, "Not bad. Unfortunately, it's still not enough to move me."
"What do you need to be moved? We still have a couple of maidens in the stronghold," offered Mo Mo while nibbling her lips.
"Sure, lead the way. I don't mind taking a look," said Xiang Shaoyun.
A slight trace of astonishment surfaced on Mo Mo's face as she quickly stepped to the side and said, "This way, young hero."
And thus, Xiang Shaoyun strutted into the stronghold. The bandits all gripped their weapons tightly and glared at Xiang Shaoyun, but not one of them dared to step forth and challenge him.
"Second head, let's attack together and avenge the third head!" shouted a certain bandit that was still fearless.
Two of them then raised their weapons and charged Xiang Shaoyun from two different directions.
"No!" Mo Mo stopped them. Unfortunately, it was too late.
Xiang Shaoyun had moved as well. He merely pointed his finger two times, sending two beams toward the attackers. They were instantly struck, and they collapsed on the ground with bloody holes in their chests. They no longer moved.
"Those daring to make a move against the young hero shall be executed!" Mo Mo quickly yelled.
She was afraid that Xiang Shaoyun would be angered and start slaughtering them. Nobody could stop him if that happened.
It wasn't that she had no confidence in her own people, but she could not see through his cultivation level at all. For her, the only option was to convert him into a friend.
Xiang Shaoyun looked at Mo Mo with a deep gaze as he said, "Smart choice."
If more people from Redwolf Bandits attacked, he would indeed start slaughtering them, using all of them as target practice. In any case, he had completely recovered and had even improved decently. He was now at late second-stage and was only a tiny bit away from peak second-stage.
The bandits scattered; nobody dared to attack him anymore. They might be villains, but they treasured their lives as well. Mo Mo brought Xiang Shaoyun to their meeting hall. The meeting hall was where they normally held their important meetings, and it was the best place in their stronghold to receive guests.
On their way, Xiang Shaoyun observed that a lot of traps were installed in the stronghold. The defense of the stronghold was fairly decent.
To the side, Mo Mo had a sensation that everything in their stronghold had been laid bare before Xiang Shaoyun. Inwardly, she muttered, He can't be that powerful, right?
She kept considering whether she should lead him to a trap before killing him. But after some hesitation, she decided against the thought.
When they arrived at the meeting hall, Mo Mo had someone serve Xiang Shaoyun tea. She also brought a few captive maidens over and offered them to Xiang Shaoyun. "Young hero, take a look. Are they to your liking?"
Xiang Shaoyun found that the captives were indeed innocent and attractive maidens, but from the fear on their faces, it was obvious they were greatly terrified.
"You bandits sure live fulfilling lives. Alright, take them away for now," Xiang Shaoyun said with a sneer.
Mo Mo looked at Xiang Shaoyun in confusion before waving her hand, sending the maidens away. She then said to Xiang Shaoyun, "Young hero, what can I do to make you spare us?"
"From today onward, there are no more Redwolf Bandits," said Xiang Shaoyun.
Mo Mo panicked and asked, "Are there no other ways?"
"Heh, you people kill and plunder, committing numerous heinous crimes. What alternative do you think there is?" Xiang Shaoyun sneered.
"If the young hero is willing to show us mercy, I am willing to be your servant!" Mo Mo said, her eyes fixed on Xiang Shaoyun. Then, her clothes slipped down, revealing the incomparably seductive body within. Step by step, she strode toward Xiang Shaoyun, staring at him with twinkling eyes.
Xiang Shaoyun did not remove his gaze from her, but when she was about to jump into his arms, he said, "I am not interested in a broken flower. Give up already."
