1828 Protection 1
Their brutish behavior ca to a halt as Sword One made her appearance. The guards watched her with amusent, as if they were witnessing sothing comical.
In the realm of Saint Divine Land, few won possessed martial arts skills, making Sword One a remarkable exception. Despite their bullying of the maids from Saint Divine Land over the past couple of days, they were unable to match Sword One’s capabilities. Today, soone had attempted to confront them, which provided them with great entertainnt. They neither defeated Sword One nor allowed her to overpower them.
However, after dealing with nurous guards, Sword One was visibly fatigued.
The guards were prepared to create another spectacle when Gu Chaoyan stord into the tent.
Initially, they assud it was just another arrogant individual from the Saint Divine Land, ready to be taunted. But their mocking expressions froze upon realizing that it was Phoenix Girl who had entered.
Their wild behavior ceased in the presence of Phoenix Girl.
Before they could wipe the smirks off their faces, a profound silence fell over the tent.
Sword One sheathed her sword and, instead of joining Gu Chaoyan, she approached the maids. There were twenty maids, each assigned to one of the twenty guards from Snow Territory present in the camp.
As Sword One entered the tent, the guards were caught in the act of insulting the scantily clad maids. They appeared startled and froze upon her intervention. They dared not make any movents or even adjust their own clothing.
This kind of mistreatnt had been happening for days, and the maids, being of lower status, had been too afraid to speak up. It was only recently that they shared this information with the hidden guards, who began to investigate the matter. However, they held little hope for any form of rescue. After all, with the King’s absence and their low social standing, they felt powerless.
Sword One assisted the maids in adjusting their outfits, ensuring their dignity.
Gu Chaoyan stood coldly in place, her gaze sweeping across the guards.
During this tense mont, a few guards managed to slip away unnoticed by Gu Chaoyan. They were likely reporting to their superiors, which aligned with Gu Chaoyan’s own plans.
Gu Chaoyan remained silent and motionless, sending a clear ssage of her disapproval.
The guards, realizing that their actions had been exposed, felt a wave of guilt wash over them. While their bosses may have been aware of their behavior, they had previously turned a blind eye. However, with Phoenix Girl involved, they feared the consequences and the potential for punishnt.
Among the guards, there was one audacious man who stepped forward, addressing Gu Chaoyan directly.
He said, “This place is ant for servants, Phoenix Girl. It would be best if you returned to your wagon. It is not appropriate for you to remain here.”
“….”
“These matters will only taint your eyes,” he continued.
“….”
“These won are rely low-class servants. They have co to Snow Territory and will settle here. However, as a foreign group, they will not lead peaceful lives. If they choose to stay with us, we will take responsibility for them.”
The guard stated his perspective, drawing on his experience in the Saint Divine Land. He understood the significance placed on maintaining proper social status and identities.
