13 Lan Yan and Lan Fei

The elder sister glared sharply at Ling Tian and said.

"Cough, cough. What are you waiting for? Help me!" Elder sister

"B... Big Sister, please don't move around so much. Don't push yourself too hard…" Little Sister

Ignoring her younger sister's plea, the elder sister approached Ling Tian and slapped him across the cheek.

"Eh?" Ling Tian

Pan, a dry sound resounded in their surroundings.

To this sudden development, Ling Tian could not understand what was happening.

Why did this girl get angry at him?

Why would she slap her savior?

He fell into confusion, his cheek stinging in pain.

"You watched us the whole time right? If that was the case you should've helped us sooner!" Elder Sister

Ling Tian almost got himself slapped a second time.

However this time he was expecting it and caught the girl's arm.

Her face became distorted in frustration and she tried using her free hand to slap him.

"…"

The young girl became hysteric and started acting violently. Ling Tian started turning angry after experiencing such unreasonable treatment, but he could not treat a young girl like her poorly.

"Let go of my hand! Filthy! Smelly!" Elder Sister

"B... Big Sister, he saved us so isn't it wrong to get angry at him?" Younger sister

The younger sister was trying to soothe the elder sister's fury.

The elder sister could smell the foul odors originating from Ling Tian and it was clearly reflected on her face.

She was also greatly shocked at his repulsive appearance.

Though thanks to the younger sister's cries, the elder sister ceased her violent actions towards Ling Tian.

Even if the other party was still very young, her actions were unreasonable since the beginning and Ling Tian's anger was reaching its boiling point.

He already got himself into another troubling situation.

The elder sister was glaring at his filthy forelocks.

"A-Aah. Thank you very much for saving us." Younger Sister

Sensing Ling Tian's displeasure, the younger sisters came forward and lowered her head.

"No, it wasn't much."

As expected Ling Tian could not disregard the young girl expressing her gratitude to him so he gave a curt reply.

"What? What kind of attitude is that?" Elder sister

Ling Tian decided to disregard the elder sister.

"B... Big Sister!" Younger Sister

The dangerous atmosphere dissipated again due to the younger sister rebuking her elder sister.

"Hmph, I'll forgive you for Fei'er." Elder Sister

It appeared the younger sister's name was Lan Fei.

Seeing her older sister calm down, Lan Fei breathed a sigh of relief. But right after that, the elder sister's words were like pouring oil onto a dying fire.

"Mortal, lead us to the Celestial Sword Sect. As for the men over there… take two of them with us." Elder sister

(Celestial Sword Sect...? what is that?)

Ignoring that Ling Tian was amazed at how easily she commanded him.

"You were able to throw them so this should be simple right?" Elder Sister

Ling Tian was unamused at her attitude. In addition, her tone was almost hysterical.

Her panic was probably due to only recently escaping from a horrific situation but the current Ling Tian was too irritated to notice such things.

"…Is that the attitude one uses when asking for assistance?" Ling Tian

Ling Tian understood it was necessary to provide assistance to the daughters of a noble.

But this girl's overbearing attitude chased out that thought.

He wanted her to at least consider his feelings a little.

"A-Ah no, I'm sorry! I would also like to request your help. If necessary, I will ask father to reward you!"

Ling Tian's current impressions of nobles were rock bottom.

But thanks to Lan Fei it did not drop any lower.

Surely the two girls must have experienced life void of hardships so far.

They got whatever they desired.

They were so dazzling for someone like Ling Tian that it only gave birth to one vulgar thought after another. As for Haruto, he could not stand Lan Fei's straightforwardness.

"…Understood."

Ling Tian unwillingly agreed to Lan Fei's request.

"Thank you very much!"

Ling Tian got to work immediately.

The two young girls cut the sacks previously used to transport them into ropes and Ling Tian tied the men with them.

He also took their weapons along with any valuables he could find.

It was bulky but it could not be helped; the current him was in dire need of money.

Since a while ago his actions could already be classified as a crime so he did not bother justifying his actions.

Ling Tian did not know of any laws regarding the treatment of a criminal's possessions. Since that was the case, he might as well loot all the thugs' belongings; there was nothing wrong with getting his hands on a few valuables.

"Hmph, so greedy…"

Looking at his behavior, Lan Yan said those lines while looking down on him. Hearing that, Ling Tian felt some resistance but pretended he did not hear anything and continued with his work.

Finishing his work, Ling Tian and the sisters left the red light district and continued towards the market.

Along the way, people in the red light district looked at Ling Tian and the young girls with great curiosity. However, no one called out to them due to the foul smell Ling Tian gave off.

Upon arrival at the market, Guards immediately ran up to Ling Tian and the sisters. Lan Yan and Lan Fei were put under their protection afterward.
