Chapter 746: The Bold and Shameless Woman

Da Wo struggled, about to curse, but he didn't want his mouth stuffed with hemp; he stammered, unable to make a sound.

His eyes stared fixedly at Yun Duo, wishing he could bite to death this ruthless little girl.

He really had never seen such a bold and shameless woman; he didn't know her, yet she stopped him in the street, insisting on asking about his family's privacy.

That woman even tied him up; could it be that she knows him?

He recalled the two little ones he had picked up; seeing this woman's fierce look, he feared she might harm them, perhaps she was an enemy of those two children.

Thinking this, Da Wo dared not utter a word; even if he were beaten to death today, he could not betray those two children.

Yun Duo dragged Da Wo all the way to the center of Ten Thousand Rivers City, where at the intersection stood several towering wooden railings that reached into the clouds.

Yun Duo raised her hand and sealed Da Wo's acupoints, leaving him unable to move.

Demon woman! She must be a demon woman!

Da Wo widened his eyes, watching helplessly as Yun Duo dragged him to the railing and tied him up there.

At this moment he was also panicking; he was just an ordinary herdsman, living his quiet life—who had he offended to deserve such humiliation from this woman?

He also had self-respect; though his tribe was small, they worshipped the God of the Grasslands, and he aspired to be an eagle soaring over the grasslands.

He never expected being human to be so miserable; in the end, even his fiancée went into another's arms.

Thinking this, Da Wo felt somewhat listless; Yun Duo slowly walked up to him, Da Wo unable to speak, his eyes gleaming like poison, wishing he could poison her.

Yun Duo's expression cold, she raised the back of her icy dagger and struck Da Wo's face, speaking each word deliberately: 'I've said before, I never harm the innocent—tell me where you picked up those two children.'

'If you can't make it clear, then take me to your tribe for a look.'

'If they are the two children I know, there will be a generous reward—the bounty would be more than enough for you to marry over a hundred beautiful wives.'

'If you still insist on staying silent, my patience also has its limits.'

'Those two children are very important to me; don't play tricks—I'll ask you later and you just answer, that's all.'

Yun Duo removed the hemp stuffed in Da Wo's mouth and asked, 'Now tell me where those two children are.'

'Demon woman! Do whatever you want—kill or dismember me; if I Da Wo even frown, I count it as a loss.'

The term 'demon woman' entered Yun Duo's ears, and she froze for a moment.

From childhood to adulthood, the word 'demon' had never matched her.

She felt anxious in her heart, not knowing why today she had to find out the whereabouts of those two children.

Although she wasn't sure if they were the two young masters/mistresses, she instinctively wanted to look for them.

'Those two children aren't yours; they have their own parents—you can't keep them from seeing their own kin,' Yun Duo tried to persuade, feeling she could hardly go on, wanting to turn against this person.

Da Wo gave a cold snort.

'What are you snorting at? I'm asking where those two children went.' Yun Duo pressed her dagger against Da Wo's handsome face; a light press would turn his face into a bloody mess.

Da Wo snorted coldly: 'We picked up those two children on the road; why should I tell you? What if you're the children's enemy? You don't look like a good person either.'

Yun Duo laughed angrily: 'I have some difficulties I can't tell you too much about, but those two children are ones I must protect with my life—how could I harm them? Just tell me where they are.'

'I need to go to your home first to see the two children, to check if they're the ones I'm looking for; if they are, I will definitely not mistreat you; if not, I will kowtow to apologize, and we can still be friends.'

Yun Duo, who by nature does not like to laugh, forced herself to smile a bit for the sake of her master's son and daughter, patiently persuading.

Who knew that when she smiled like that, Da Wo's body shivered even more, as if seeing a ghost, he shrank back.

Yun Duo simply stopped pretending, grabbed Da Wo's collar, and said, 'Name your price—I'll give you the money first!'

Yun Duo really took out a stack of silver notes and shoved them into Da Wo's chest.

Da Wo felt a surge of anger; those wealthy landlord families, whatever they like, they'll seize by any means.

His fiancée and Ya had been taken away in this very way; the woman before him only grew more offensive to his eyes.

This round of threats and inducements from Yun Duo only strengthened Da Wo's resolve: this woman probably bears a grudge against those two children, and he will absolutely not speak.

Yun Duo was utterly enraged; she flicked her dagger downward, directly tearing his collar and exposing his sturdy chest.

Da Wo was stunned in an instant; he had thought this bold woman would backhand stab him to death— in the lawless Mo Bei, it would be all too easy to run him through.

Da Wo even hardened his heart to face death in order to protect that sliver of conscience and justice within him.

But he didn't expect that this woman before him would not only not kill him, but actually tear all his clothes off; instantly, a crowd of onlookers gathered around.

Everyone gathered around, chattering, and the laughter was harsh to the ears.

'Young man, just give in to this lass!'

'Yes, no matter how heroic the eagle on the grasslands, it must return to its nest!'

'Hahaha, quite a sturdy build!'

Da Wo wished he could kill himself by crashing his head; he shouted at Yun Duo, 'How dare you humiliate the heroic eagle of the grasslands!'

'The heroic eagle of the grasslands, heh!' Yun Duo gave a contemptuous smile: 'No matter how mighty the eagle, I could also skin it.'

Yun Duo raised her dagger and directly slit Da Wo's pants, exposing his undergarments, then raised her hand high again.

Da Wo truly underestimated the demon woman's thick skin, and immediately cursed.

Yun Duo gave a light laugh: 'Just impotent rage.'

Yun Duo coldly stared at him, her dagger descending toward his lower body.

'Wait a moment!' Da Wo shouted loudly.

The surrounding onlookers laughed even more.

Da Wo stared fixedly at Yun Duo: 'Who exactly are you? Why do you insist on going against those two children?'

Yun Duo laughed angrily: 'How did you figure I'm against those two children? My young master/mistress is lost; I need to find people—do you understand?'

Da Wo was half‑believing, half‑doubting, and finally yielded to Yun Duo's intimidating might.

Yun Duo released Da Wo, but just as he was about to rise, she grabbed him from the side, producing a silver chain as if by magic, and locked the two of them together.

'You really are going too far,' Da Wo said, the corners of his eyes slightly red.

Yun Duo said with a calm expression, 'Please lead the way ahead.'

I need to go to the bathroom; you also want to come along?

Yun Duo gave a light laugh: "I'll come with you!"

"You?" Da Wo truly had never seen such a shameless woman.

Yun Duo coldly said: "I have no interest in you; don't play tricks, take me to find the child."

Da Wo's body trembled slightly with anger; he gritted his teeth and got into the already prepared carriage.

From Wan Chuan City to Da Wo's tribe, they walked for a full two days. During this time, Yun Duo stubbornly refused to unlock Da Wo's chains, accompanying him to the bathroom several times; afterward, Da Wo felt his worldview completely overturned.

Before they knew it, they had arrived at Da Wo's tribe; the tribe was so tiny in the vast Mo Bei that it could be overlooked.

Da Wo got off the carriage and looked toward the nearby village: "We've arrived."
