Chapter 1102: Caught in the hands of a mercenary
Your journey starts at m_v le mpyr
Shen Li could not run with his pregnant belly. Thus he could only hide behind the mammies as they rushed towards the carriages but the mercenaries were even faster, they knew that those who had carriages and horses would try to run away.
Thus they burned the carriages and killed the horses first, fortunately, the horses raised by the Yu family were sentient beings after eating and drinking water and fodder which was filled with spiritual energy.
Thus they shook off their reigns and ran to the back of the house where they took the rest of the livestock and went to barren mountains. Though the horses were not killed they were no longer in the village either leaving the Yu family in trouble.
When Shen Li saw that a mercenary had raised her hands and was clutching a sword to swing it down, he remembered Yu Dong's wise teachings.
One who was willing to kill him did not deserve his kindness and sympathy, so he raised his hands and then aimed at the woman's head before the mercenary could think what Shen Li was doing, he pulled the trigger and with a loud bang, the mercenary was sent flying.
Shen Li felt his heart thump as he looked at the woman lying on the ground with a deep hole in the middle of her head, with blood and brain splattered on her face. The sight was gruesome but when Shen Li thought about how he would have been killed with his child if he hadn't pulled the trigger, he did not feel sorry for the woman at all.
" Let's go.." Ning Yu rushed inside the circle and then looked at the woman who was lying on the ground. He did not feel that his son was ruthless for killing this woman either.
He knew that because of Qiu Bai, his son almost lost his ability to get pregnant, it was after a year of medication and care that Shen Li was able to get pregnant with a child, if something happened to Shen Li and his child, then only heavens knew how bitter and heartbroken Yu Dong would be once she returns.
As a father, who knew how much suffering his son went through Ning Yu did not feel even the slightest bit of sympathy for this mercenary.
However, how could the mercenaries allow this to happen? They did not see what Shen Li did, all they knew was that he raised a metal block in his hand and then —— and then the woman who was supposed to kill him got killed instead!
" W..What is this? Is this black magic?"
The gun that Yu Dong handed Shen Li and the others was as small as a small box with a single opening at the front. Even the bullet was so small that no one could see it with the naked eyes thus it was not a surprise that the mercenaries thought that Shen Li did black Magic.
Some of the mercenaries stepped away, they did not dare to approach Shen Li willy-nilly.
" What are you waiting for? They are just mers what can they do?" One of the mercenaries roared at the women who were stepping away from Shen Li and the other mers, she turned her attention to Fang Chi and Chen Mi who were hiding behind mammies and sneered, " Hand those mers and kids over or else don't blame me for being unkind !"
" Don't you dare touch our kids!" Mother Chen roared back as she took out a gun and then aimed at the woman just like Shen Li but she was old and could not aim at the centre of the head. The mercenary was shot in the throat causing her to stumble on the ground.
When the same thing happened all over again, the mercenaries were even more shocked. What kind of family was this? What was going on?
" You are looking for death!" One of the mercenaries could not help but scream as she saw her teammate being shot dead. This was the first time their team had been embarrassed like this, the crowd in front of them was full of mers and old women and yet two of their teammates were attacked and killed on the spot.
They charged at the group in front of them, neither of the mercenaries believed that they would not be able to protect themselves while taking their lives.
They stabbed the swords at the mammies, scaring Feng Chi and Chen Mi so much that they hugged their sons tightly in their hands. What was going on? Why were they being attacked like this? They were just small farmers!
Rong Yi who came looking for the Yu family mers saw that they were in danger and immediately picked up her hammer before turning to her husband and said, " Go and hide, I will come back after saving Sister Dong's mers! "
Her husband did not want to let his wife go but when he thought about how Yu Dong was his saviour, he swallowed his words and then turned on his heels to run with his daughter.
The mercenaries were however ruthless and their numbers were way too much. Thus they were able to get past the circle which was protecting Chen Mi and Fang Chi.
The mercenary who attacked first reached Fang Chi and grabbed his hair.
" ARGH!"
" What are you doing? Let go of me! Don't touch me!" Fang Chi screamed as felt his hair being ripped out from his scalp. He held his son tightly in his arms, while the woman behind her continued to smash the hilt of her sword on his back again and again. Sometimes she would turn the blade causing his clothes to tatter.
" Hahah! This is good, what a pale skin. Sure enough, the skin of a rich mer is different than those who are sold!" The woman jeered as she rubbed her hands on Fang Chi's back.
" Don't you dare!" Fang Chi screamed even though he was disgusted with the touch on his back, he did not dare to touch around as he was afraid that his son would be harmed. Thus he could only grit his teeth and bear with the harassment even though the woman was rubbing and licking his back as she wished.
