Chapter 1549: Chapter 1549: The Unruly Girl
The golden-winged eagle truly lives up to its reputation as a top predator, its body is so strong that falling from such a height leaves it unscathed.
The girl visibly sighed in relief upon seeing the golden-winged eagle unharmed.
But immediately, she turned around and stared at Qin Yi with anger.
This girl is young, looking to be in her teens, definitely no older than twenty, dressed differently from other girls.
Most girls wear dresses and such, but she is clad in a silver light armor, protecting her chest, shoulders, elbows, knees, and she even has a red cape draped on her back.
Though young, she has a distinct and chic air about her.
Yun Mengyao stepped forward, glanced at her a few times, and frowned: "Is this how you treat your savior? Don’t forget he just saved your life and this golden-winged eagle’s."
"Don’t think saving me means I’ll let you off. That’s a separate matter, and if you don’t hand over those girls, I definitely won’t spare you."
"Furthermore, do you know who I am? You wouldn’t dare let me die. If something happens to me, you’ll be done for."
The girl stubbornly held her head high, appearing arrogant and domineering.
Yun Mengyao frowned, a bit unhappy, and said:
"Still clueless as ever. If we really were the bad guys you claim, why would we save you? It would’ve been easier to watch you fall to your death."
"Stop pretending here. It’s clearly because of my identity. I’m the daughter of the City Lord’s Mansion in Mo City. If something happens to me, my father will be enraged, and none of you will survive."
Yun Mengyao frowned and said, "The City Lord’s Mansion’s daughter is nothing. Even if your father came, he wouldn’t dare boast before us."
"We saved you, and not being grateful is one thing, but boasting so brazenly here. Considering your age, I won’t hold it against you. Hurry home and drink some milk."
"So domineering at such a young age. If not for a hint of heroism in you, I’d beat you until even your mom couldn’t recognize you right now."
The girl’s face was full of arrogance, pointing at Qin Yi and the others and said:
"How dare you talk to me like this? You must have a death wish. I’ll go back and tell my father to kill you all."
"Swish!"
Yun Mengyao rushed forward.
The girl’s face changed abruptly, "What do you want to do?"
Before the words finished, Yun Mengyao suppressed her cultivation directly.
This girl’s cultivation wasn’t even at the Golden Core Stage; how could she be a match for Yun Mengyao?
Yun Mengyao grabbed her by the back collar and pressed her against a stone.
Yun Mengyao picked up a branch and struck the girl’s perky butt several times.
The girl screamed and yowled from the beating.
"You dare hit me? I’ll have my father kill you!"
"Whacks...!"
Yun Mengyao swung several more times with considerable force.
The girl was in pain and humiliation, to have her butt spanked publicly by Yun Mengyao like this was beyond disgraceful.
She was, after all, the daughter of the City Lord’s Mansion in Mo City, raised in luxury and praised by others, when had she ever been so humiliated?
"I’ll have my father kill you, you wicked woman, ugly woman..."
Though the beating was painful, the girl’s mouth was unrelenting.
"Even if you’re the City Lord’s daughter, or if your dad were God, I’d still beat you today. Since your parents aren’t disciplining you, I’ll do it myself."
Saying this, she began another round of beating.
The girl screamed from the pain, tears began to flow out, she shouted: "Little Gold, help me, help me..."
The golden-winged eagle had just moved a bit when Qin Yi extended a finger to stop it.
The golden-winged eagle immediately ceased moving, it was frightened of Qin Yi.
"Submitting or not?"
Yun Mengyao struck a few more times and asked.
"Not submitting, you scoundrels, my father will kill you the moment he moves."
The girl was quite stubborn, absolutely refusing to yield.
Yun Mengyao sneered coldly and dealt a heavy blow.
The girl yelped from the pain, tears streaming.
Yun Mengyao ceased speaking, just kept swinging the branch.
The thumb-thick branch broke, and Yun Mengyao prepared to pick another one.
"I submit, I submit..."
Seeing Yun Mengyao pick up a thicker branch than before, the girl hurriedly shouted.
Yun Mengyao ignored her, stepped forward and struck her butt hard, "Admit your mistake!"
"I made a mistake!"
"Apologize to us."
"I’m sorry, I’m sorry!"
"Smack!"
Yun Mengyao struck hard again.
"Louder, I didn’t hear."
The girl cried miserably, snot and tears streaming, and shouted, "I’m sorry, I was wrong!"
Her stubborn mouth was no match for the stiff branch, the girl ultimately yielded under Yun Mengyao’s rod.
Qin Yi laughed and said, "Indeed, it takes a villain to subdue a villain."
Yin Qianqian nodded in agreement.
Yun Mengyao pointed at the girl, "Let me tell you, what I did is for your own good. With your attitude, without your father’s protection, you’d likely be strangled in the cradle."
"You’re lucky to meet us. If you really encountered bandits, they’d assault and kill you first, who would care for your nonsense."
The girl nodded helplessly and miserably, softly said, "I realize my mistake!"
Of course, Qin Yi and the others knew this arrogant child wouldn’t yield so easily, just temporarily subduing to Yun Mengyao’s intimidation.
Suddenly, Qin Yi turned to look into the distance.
Yin Qianqian asked reflexively, "What is it?"
"Someone is coming."
"Release my daughter!"
As soon as Qin Yi finished speaking, a thunderous shout rang out from afar, like a Thunder Shock, shaking the mountains.
From just that shout, one could tell the might of the owner, at least not weaker than Yin Qianqian.
While the shout still lingered, several figures entered Qin Yi and the others’ sight.
Their speed was incredibly fast, arriving in the blink of an eye.
Heading them was a black-faced middle-aged man, rugged in appearance, short in stature, dressed in rough fabric with rolled-up sleeves, looking like a farmer.
Qin Yi and his companions were quite surprised, for this man just said to release his daughter, indicating he was the master of Mo City.
A City Lord looking like this is indeed rare.
Furthermore, the appearance difference between this father-daughter was beyond noticeable, the girl, despite her age, was a beauty in the making, whereas the City Lord didn’t have anything to do with aesthetic appeal.
On Earth, Qin Yi would definitely suggest this City Lord check the paternity.
Unfortunately, DNA testing doesn’t exist in this world.
"Father!"
The girl, upon seeing the black-faced man, scrambled from the stone but almost fell due to her sore butt, grimacing intensely.
But escape was paramount, especially fleeing from the female demon at her side, she hobbled towards the black-faced man.
The black-faced man was full of anxiety, fearing Yun Mengyao might take the girl hostage.
But Yun Mengyao did not do so, nor did she show any intention to stop the girl.
The girl threw herself into the black-faced man’s arms, immediately started bawling, crying while saying: "Daddy, they bullied me. You must catch them and spank them hard."
