"That woman and Linghu Baimei have figures and appearances as if they were carved from the same mold. Could they be sisters? Otherwise, how could they look so alike?"A sudden thought flashed through Fang Baiâs mind.
Bangâ
Bangâ
Bangâ
As the gunfire sounded again, the bandits saw the woman in the white dress kill one of their own and knew she was a dangerous entity. They shed no tears for beauty and opened fire on her without hesitation.
The woman in the white dress scooped up Alian with one hand, her figure transforming into a streak of white light. Using the surrounding rocks, she dodged the onslaught of bullets.
Fang Bai wasnât worried about the safety of Alian and the woman in the white dress.
The womanâs cultivation level had reached Earth Level Perfection, endowing her with the ability to anticipate her enemiesâ moves and predict danger.
In other words, the woman could, based on the banditsâ movements, foresee where they would shoot and elegantly dodge the bullets with her movement technique.
Unless the banditsâ gunfire could blanket an area of several dozen yards, it posed no real threat to the woman in the white dress.
As she continued to evade, the woman carried Alian in her left hand while her right hand flicked out throwing knives, transforming them into streaks of white light that shot towards the bandits.
The bandits, lacking her movement technique, stood no chance against the swiftly thrown knives that werenât much slower than the bullets; they fell to the ground, screaming, meeting untimely deaths.
The gunfire dwindled, and in the blink of an eye, more than a dozen bandits lay dead, slain by the white-dressed womanâs flying knives.
As the last bandit fell, the woman set Alian down on the ground, her gaze sweeping over each of the fallen bandits with a light sigh, murmuring, "Had you not sought to kill this little girl, I wouldnât have had to kill you... I truly detest killing..."
With her hands pressed together in prayer, her expression was one of solemn reverence, as if praying for the souls of the deceased bandits.
"Wu wu wu... Iâm bleeding... I want Grandpa... I want Grandpa..."
Facing the bodies strewn all over, Alian cried out in fear, and the painful wound on her arm where a bullet had grazed her made her burst into tears.
"Little sister, donât be afraid, your big sister isnât a bad person... Youâre hurt, but I will treat you right away..."
Upon hearing Alianâs cries, the woman in the white dress quickly knelt to check her wounds, smiling and softly offering comfort.
Her smile was like a spring breeze, soothing and warming the heart.
Her voice, gentle as a cloud, brought tranquility and peace to all who heard it.
Originally inconsolable, Alianâs sobs gradually became quieter under the womanâs comforting, and her tension and fear relaxed.
"Can big sister heal Alianâs wounds? Iâve lost a lot of blood, am I going to die?"
Alian wiped the tears from her small face and looked up with big eyes at the beautiful sister before her, a fairy from a painting, and asked amidst sobs.
"So your name is Alian! What a lovely name... Donât worry, your sister is a doctor and can cure many illnesses... Alian will be alright..."
The woman in the white dressâs lips curled into a gentle smile, her face brightening with an even warmer smile, her voice softer than before. ThÉŞs chapter is updated by Nová´lFirá´(.)ná´t
"Those people killed âXiao Huaâ, they were bad people..."
At the mention of her pet lamb "Xiao Hua," Alian couldnât help but start dabbing at her tears again.
"Donât cry, Alian, your sister will buy you lots and lots of âXiao Huasâ to raise, would you like that?"
The woman in the white dress spoke with a smile.
"Okay... Thank you, big sister..."
Alianâs tears turned to laughter.
The woman in the white dress gently stroked Alianâs little face, a look of affection on her pretty face, and said, "Then Alian promises sister to be a strong and brave girl from now on, no more crying, okay?"
"Okay! Alian wonât cry anymore!"
Alian wiped away the tears at the corners of her eyes and nodded vigorously.
Although Alianâs injury was not serious, blood continued to seep out, soaking through the patched clothing she wore.
Such a wound would mean little to an adult, nor would it feel very painful, but Alian was after all just an eight- or nine-year-old girl. Seeing the bleeding made the pain feel worse, but she had promised the big sister not to cry, so she bit her lower lip and held back her tears.
The woman in the white dress had a small cloth bag on her back. She took Alian by the creek, rolled up Alianâs sleeves to clean the wound, and then took out a medicine bottle from the cloth bag, sprinkled some powder on the wound on Alianâs arm, and carefully wrapped it with gauze.
"Itâs okay now, no more bleeding..."
The woman in the white dress bent down to lift Alian, kissed her on her tender little cheek, and asked, "Alian, tell sister where your home is, and sister will take you home..."
"Alian lives with Grandpa in Shigong Village!"
Alian pointed towards the distant Shigong Village, then gesturing at a few sheep not far away, she added, "Sister can put Alian down now! Alian needs to herd the little sheep home!"
The woman in the white dress smiled, set Alian down,
and so Alian, driving the sheep and accompanied by the woman in the white dress, slowly made her way towards Shigong Village.
Fang Bai emerged from the invisibility of the long grass and went to meet the two people.
The woman in the white dress, upon seeing Fang Bai approaching, seemed to sense he was not one of the bandits and showed no particular reaction.
And Fang Bai became even more certain that this woman in the white dress was not the same person as Linghu Baimei.
"You must be Alian, right? Your grandfather asked me to find you; heâs very worried about you!"
Fang Bai walked up to Alian, said with a smile, and then turned his gaze to the woman in the white dress.
Upon closely observing the woman in the white dress, Fang Bai felt that the compassionate look in her eyes very much resembled the kind-hearted side of the "Peach Fairyland Empress" from his previous life.
Fang Baiâs close confidante from his previous life, the "Peach Fairyland Empress," had a multifaceted personality: she was as cold and merciless as the winter towards enemies, yet she possessed a compassionate heart for the world, combining grace and dignified sanctity in one. She was one of the Immortal Emperorâs most beloved consorts in his former life.
Fang Bai thought that if Linghu Baimeiâs and this woman in the white dressâs temperaments and characters were blended together, they would indeed be very similar to the "Peach Fairyland Empress" of his past life.
"Big brother, who are you? I havenât seen you in Shigong Village before?"
Alian asked with wide eyes.
Fang Bai replied with a smile, "Big brotherâs name is Fang Bai. Just now, when big brother was passing by your Shigong Village, I met your grandfather. Your grandfather is old, walks with a cane, and has trouble walking, so he asked big brother to come find you to take you back home..."
Alian said, "Thank you, big brother. Alian is going home now!"
"Alian, since someoneâs come to pick you up, then sister will leave! Goodbye!"
The woman in the white dress looked at Fang Bai, waved to Alian with a smile, and then turned to leave.
"May I ask how this miss is related to Linghu Baimei?"
Fang Bai watched the graceful figure of the woman in the white dress walking away and suddenly spoke up.
The woman in the white dress paused, slowly turned back, and contemplated Fang Bai with a thoughtful look. She frowned and asked, "You know my younger sister?"
