Chapter 3854: Only Seeking Death

Qiao Mu couldn't be bothered to talk to that woman anymore. Why would she waste words on such a shameless person?

To make that man obey, to enjoy a moment of pleasure, she actually broke his limbs?

What kind of act was that? Was that even something a human could do?

Clearly not!

So...

Seeing Qiao Mu take two steps forward, Meng Meiyou's expression instantly changed. She instinctively recoiled, watching Qiao Mu warily. "What do you want to do?"

"I warn you, don't come any closer!" Meng Meiyou shrieked in alarm, clutching her injured finger and retreating several steps.

Suddenly, she looked back at the man lying motionless on the ground with his eyes closed. Meng Meiyou abruptly shrieked at Qiao Mu, "You just want this man, don't you? Fine! I'll, I'll give him to you! Miss, we're strangers, let's not interfere with each other. There's no need to fight me over a man!"

Qiao Mu looked at her expressionlessly. "Do you think everyone is as filthy as you?"

She wanted this man? Bah! What for? A waste of food and effort.

She was just somewhat moved; as for anything else, Little Qiao stated that this woman was clearly overthinking things!

Seeing Qiao Mu approach her, Meng Meiyou quickly turned and darted forward, intending to grab the man on the ground by the neck, wanting to take him hostage to threaten Qiao Mu.

However, before her fingers even touched his neck, she was swept away by a powerful force.

Colliding heavily with the stone wall, Meng Meiyou spat out a mouthful of blood with a "wah" sound. She rolled to the ground, her brows furrowed in terror, inching backward like an insect.

"When you broke someone's limbs, did you ever imagine you'd end up like this?" Qiao Mu said coldly.

Upon hearing this, Meng Meiyou quickly argued, "No, it's not like that! I, I, I got separated from my companions and accidentally picked up this young brother in the forest."

"When I, I picked him up, he was already like this!" Meng Meiyou hurriedly explained.

"And, and if I hadn't appeared in time to kill the two wild wolves that came for him, he would probably have been torn apart and eaten by wolves by now."

Qiao Mu paused, recalled the Startling Swan Dagger hovering in the air, and sized up the woman.

Although the woman was dressed provocatively and had a hint of evil in her eyes, her expression as she spoke now seemed very serious, not like she was lying.

"Oh?" Qiao Mu glanced at her indifferently, observing her carefully for a moment before stepping towards the man lying on the ground.

She squatted beside him and took hold of his cold wrist.

She could clearly feel his body recoil, and a flash of terror crossed his hollow eyes, which held no will to live.

He tried to pull his hand back, but how could a useless person with no cultivation retract his hand from Little Qiao's grip?

Qiao Mu felt his pulse and frowned slightly.

It seemed that that filthy woman hadn't lied; these injuries appeared to be a day or two old.

The external injuries were very obvious. Besides his limbs being brutally broken by external force, there were indeed signs on his arms of having been gnawed by wild wolves and then bandaged.

When Qiao Mu looked back, she saw that Meng Meiyou had already crawled like a worm to the entrance of the cave.

Seeing Qiao Mu's cold gaze fall upon her, Meng Meiyou was terrified. Regardless of the pouring rain outside, she immediately rolled out of the cave.
