The Unknown Beauty 161 The Drug 20

Lin Yu Yan prepared black outfits for each one of them. Lightweight, easy to move, and keeps them hidden in the dark.

"How many?" said Lin Yu Yan.

"I can sense 5 people patrolling the building, 2 people inside guarding," said Wu Lang.

Lin Yu Yan gave him a nod of approval. She could also sense that much. "Okay. Meiying, you and me will take care of the people inside. Xie Rong, Wu Lang, and Kenzhi, the people outside," said Lin Yu Yan.

"Yes," the four said.

"Xie Rong, once you are done, come inside and help us with the people. Kenzhi, I want you to be the lookout just in case anyone comes back," said Lin Yu Yan. "I didn't think there will be so many people still guarding. But we can still make this work out."

Then they started to move. Lin Yu Yan and Meiying easily snuck into the building. The both carefully watched before making a move.

"Sigh… I wished I was able to make it to the auction… but I'm stuck here because of that mother f*cker," said the man. He grabs a piece of candy and puts it in his mouth.

"We can't help it. Min Fu-Han said we have to watch them. Because of the auction, this place may be more vulnerable," said the other man.

"Tsk. I don't care! I wanted that sword everyone has been talking about! I have made enough money to probably buy it and kill that bastard! Why did we end up here with this piece of sh!t."

"I want to know too. I honestly don't know what master sees in him. He's a psychopath!"

"No kidding! I'm still not used to the smell of dead beast! My god he is f*cken crazy!"

"Ouch!" said the man. He felt a pain in his body. He quickly grabbed a piece of candy in his pocket and put it in his mouth.

'Candy?' thought Lin Yu Yan. 'Why are they eating candy…?'

Lin Yu Yan looked all over to see everyone was eating the same candy.

"What is that candy?" whispered Meiying.

"I don't know… But let's save the people first," said Lin Yu Yan.

Before the two men can speak anymore, Meiying and Lin Yu Yan knocked them out cold. Meiying with her sheath dagger, swinging it to hit the man's neck and Lin Yu Yan using her hand to hit the back of the other man's neck.

"Are you guys okay?" said Lin Yu Yan.

The people were in shocked. There was a beautiful woman standing there with a strong gaze. They never knew they were going to be saved by a beauty. Some weren't sure how to react but notice the other girl that was with her. Many recognized her face as she was with them a few months ago. They soon shouted in joy.

"Shhh! Be quiet! It's not over until we are safe. Listen to me carefully. Follow this woman. She will lead you to a place to stay. But I need you all to be quiet and quick. It's not far but with so many of us, we might catch other people's attention, okay?" said Lin Yu Yan.

Xie Rong and Wu Lang entered the building in a rush and looked at all the people's faces to see if their family was around. It seems they aren't here. They carefully scan once more to make sure as everyone got up to leave the horrible building.

'Luckily, they aren't chained this time,' thought Lin Yu Yan.

Lin Yu Yan gave the people instructions the same way she has given Meiying and them when Lin Yu Yan saved them from a slave market. Meiying, Wu Lang, Xie Rong and Kenzhi carefully scan the area to make sure there is no enemy nearby as they escort the people to the houses Lin Yu Yan has purchased.

The four had a warm feeling in their hearts. It felt good to them to save people who they once were before.

Halfway to safely, Lin Yu Yan was thinking about something and decided to go back ahead of them.

"I'm going to go go ahead and look at the building that has the magnetic field. Make sure you have the tied up enemy also brought to the houses. It seems a little too easy for us to save the people so we need to ask them some questions."

Lin Yu Yan didn't wait for a reply and quickly turned back to check on the enemies that were knocked down.

Guo Jinsong and Hua Maoli has gone ahead with the plan the emperor has proposed. They go ahead and find the place which the guards on patrol has given them, 'When you smell fear, you found the place.'

They were surprised with the information but it makes since why they said that. They searched and found the place. Their was a small building and they can feel their bodies get heavy when they entered the area. It's like there was a force pushing them down.

They stealthily enter the building, feeling no presence anywhere near. It was dark and they carefully search the contents they needed. The room they have entered was full on papers and weird looking bottles all over the place.

"Found anything?" said Guo Jinsong.

"No, nothing," said Hua Maoli.

They looked in the other rooms and found nothing that could help. They were in a slump until they heard a noise below them.

Hua Maoli eyes Guo Jinsong to be quiet and slowly place his ear to the ground.

"I think someone is down there," whispered Hua Maoli.

"Let's find the entrance of the basement then," said Guo Jinsong.

Once again, they search for a door and was able to find a hidden door in the first room they searched. They slowly walked down the steps and listened to the sound. As the sound got louder they could clearly make out that it was a child's cry.

They quickly rushed down to open the door to see a woman and two children locked up in a cell.

"Help! My mother has collapsed!" said the crying child. He was full of bruises and scars and looks worse then the mother.

"Who are you!?" said the other child. He looks exactly like the boy crying but was ready to protect his brother and mother from strangers.

"It's okay. We can help you," said Guo Jinsong. He felt sadden and this situation reminded so much of his past that he forgot the mission he was suppose to finish.

"Jinsong, We don't have time for that!" said Hua Maoli.

"Maoli... I'm going to save them," said Guo Jinsong. "I have to save them."

"Sigh.. fine," said Hua Maoli. He looked into Guo Jinsong's eyes and can see he will not move forward with the mission once he knows these people are safe.

Hua Maoli broke the lock on both cells and freed the children and the mother. Hua Maoli picks up the mother as Guo Jinsong carries the children. They were going to move to find the evidence when they felt a presence nearby.

"Sh!t! We have been noticed!" said Guo Jinsong.

"Damn it!" said Hua Maoli. "Quick! Hold on to me!"

Guo Jinsong hesitated to do so because he knows what might happen to him but it was there only choice to get out of there safe. Guo Jinsong placed a hand on Hua Maoli's shoulder while still holding the children and they disappeared out of their in a flash before the door to the stairs swung open.
