As Qin Xiaoyao thought about her next plan, she kept looking at Song Que from time to time.

After a while, she realized that the mountain bandit leader had woken up.

Just as she was about to threaten the mountain bandit leader to keep quiet so as not to wake her husband up…

The mountain bandit leader had already howled in pain.

This ear-piercing sound immediately woke Song Que up.

When Qin Xiaoyao saw this, she glared at the mountain bandit leader furiously. After helping the newly-awakened Song Que to adjust his posture to lean against the wall, she immediately walked towards the mountain bandit leader. The mountain bandit leader’s face was filled with terror.

“What… what are you doing? Don’t come near…” he yelled out.

However, before he could finish his words, Qin Xiaoyao grabbed his jaw and twisted it to shut him up.

Immediately, the mountain bandit leader’s words became muffled, and his voice was also much softer.

When she saw that the mountain bandit leader still trying to shout, Qin Xiaoyao frowned and cut off another piece of cloth from her clothes.

Then, she yanked the mouth of the mountain bandit leader open and shoved the cloth into his mouth.

“Oof… oof oof…” The mountain bandit leader struggled in pain but to no avail. This time, the loudness of the sounds he made was finally within an acceptable range.

Qin Xiaoyao was still not satisfied and threatened, “Shut up! Otherwise, I’ll cut off your tongue so that you are unable to speak for the rest of your life!”

The mountain bandit leader’s eyes widened, and he finally kept quiet.

However, tears kept flowing out of his wide-open eyes.

What sin had he committed in his past life that led him to bump into this fiend?

And there was this fiend’s husband too. He must have been blind to think that he was lucky in love.

These two people were simply demons…

As he looked at the ground, specifically at something that had been cut off from him, the mountain bandit leader felt extreme pain in both his heart and body.

In spite of this great pain, he still didn’t want to die.

He could only take revenge if he survived.

When he thought of this, the mountain bandit leader felt very encouraged inwardly. He put up with the pain and didn’t make a sound anymore.

When she saw this, Qin Xiaoyao’s expression finally relaxed a little.

She returned to Song Que’s side to take care of him.

After sleeping for a while, Song Que was in better spirits, and his mind was much clearer.

He asked Qin Xiaoyao to fetch some water and then he drank it.

Thereafter, he said, “Alright. I feel much better already.

“You don’t have to stay here and watch over me. You have to go and take a look at the entrance.

“It’s best to set up some traps. If someone comes in, we’ll be able to detect him at the first moment.”

Qin Xiaoyao thought for a while and nodded.

“Alright!”

She then held the bowl and made Song Que drink the rest of the water.

After that, she left and went to the entrance of the dungeon.

There were still a large number of mountain bandits standing guard outside, but Qin Xiaoyao still didn’t see the figure of the second mountain bandit leader. After making sure that these people wouldn’t come in for the time being, Qin Xiaoyao began to think about the matter of setting up traps that her husband had just brought up.

The conditions in the dungeon were limited, so not surprisingly, she couldn’t come up with a contraption that could hurt people.

However, it was still possible to set up a warning contraption.

The simplest way was to look for something to block the entrance.

If the people outside wanted to come in, they had to clear the obstacles at the entrance.

As long as there were enough obstacles, they would definitely make some noise.

Once she heard the noise, she would know that someone had come in.

When she thought of this, Qin Xiaoyao quickly took action.

It had been almost a year since she came to this world. As her body adapted to it, her special ability had almost fully recovered.

As a level 5 strength-type special ability user, her strength was definitely enough to dominate this world.

Therefore, moving things and such was extremely easy.

Very soon, Qin Xiaoyao finished setting up the obstacles.

She then counter-checked once through. After ascertaining that it would take a lot of effort for the people outside to come in, Qin Xiaoyao then returned to the inside of the dungeon with peace of mind.

When Song Que saw Qin Xiaoyao returning, he asked about the situation outside.

After learning about Qin Xiaoyao’s arrangements, he felt much more at ease.

“This works too. Now, we just have to wait until the time is up.” He could only hope that the Imperial Court’s army would not delay any longer.

In his previous life, he remembered that the Imperial Court’s army broke through the town’s defenses at night.

It should be almost noon now. Even if they delayed another four hours, it still wouldn’t be nighttime.

However, the army would release the news to the town before attacking, so the mountain bandits probably wouldn’t wait until the last minute to retreat.

Now, they only needed to wait for the Imperial Court’s army to release the news, and the mountain bandits outside would definitely be in turmoil.

Given the second mountain bandit leader’s character, if he couldn’t break in within a short period of time, he might not continue to attack aggressively and fight to the death with them.

After that, they would be saved if they could hold on until nighttime.

“Mm-hmm!” Qin Xiaoyao replied.

She walked to Song Que’s side.

Then, she checked Song Que’s forehead and found that it was still very hot.

“Do you want to rub some wine on it?” she asked with a frown.

Song Que looked at the jar of wine that Qin Xiaoyao had placed in the corner and nodded.

And so, Qin Xiaoyao got busy again.

This time, Qin Xiaoyao didn’t stop until she had used up all the wine in the jar. Following that, Song Que groggily fell asleep again.

Qin Xiaoyao quietly held Song Que in her arms, her eyes deep and distant. No one knew what she was thinking.

Qin Xiaoyao didn’t know how much time had passed. Suddenly, she heard a noise coming from outside.

When she heard the noise a second time, Qin Xiaoyao gently shook Song Que. “Hubby!” she called out.

Although Song Que was not feeling well, he did not dare to let himself fall into a deep sleep because he was still in a dangerous predicament. He opened his eyes very quickly.

When Song Que heard the commotion outside, he quickly got up from Qin Xiaoyao’s shoulder despite his fatigue.

“Go and take a look quickly…” he said in a hoarse voice.

“Mm-hmm!” Qin Xiaoyao didn’t hesitate. She quickly stood up, picked up the dagger on the table, and headed out.

When she reached the entrance of the dungeon, she saw some mountain bandits removing the obstacles she had set up.

Moreover, by the time she arrived, the obstacles she had set up were almost all destroyed.

Qin Xiaoyao’s eyes narrowed and she rushed forward at once.

The two sides clashed violently at close quarters.

Qin Xiaoyao’s sudden appearance caught the other party off guard.

In addition, she was swift and violent with her dagger, and it didn’t take long for her to slit the throats of all six mountain bandits who had entered the dungeon.

When the mountain bandits outside heard the commotion, a few more people charged in.

Qin Xiaoyao’s eyes were icy as she continued her killing spree.

The sounds of fighting and miserable screams soon rang out.

Before long, Qin Xiaoyao killed the next six mountain bandits who had entered. She even sent the last mountain bandit flying out of the dungeon with one kick. When he crashed to the ground, not only was his neck slit, but he also spat out blood before he stopped breathing.

The mountain bandits outside were still in shock when Qin Xiaoyao appeared at the entrance of the dungeon.

She glared at the second mountain bandit leader and the other bandits around him with a ferocious expression.

Even though the second mountain bandit leader was confident of his martial arts skills, he was still terrified when he saw Qin Xiaoyao kill twelve of his men in such a short time.

Nevertheless, despite his fear, he had so many people with him and he even trapped the other party in the dungeon. He had the upper hand.

Thus, he quickly suppressed his fear.

Then, he roared to Qin Xiaoyao, “Time’s up. Release our great general!” “Hmph!” Qin Xiaoyao only gave a scornful laugh..
