Seeing the girl's look of regret, Yang Fei smiled slightly.

"How about this, if I get a chance to enter Hausen Castle, I'll bring a branch back for you."

Joy appeared in the girl's eyes, but she shook her head.

"Forget it, Dreamlike Golden Butterfly is a rare thing in Count Hausen's Castle, and Miss Lucy, the Earl's daughter, likes it very much. If you take the flower, it will bring you danger."

Yang Fei didn't insist, he nodded.

"Alright, I hope we get to meet again."

As he spoke, he tucked the flower given by the girl into his neck, then strode away.

The girl watched him leave, with a half-smile and a thoughtful look.

She slowly raised her arm, revealing a black chain tattoo on her fair left wrist.

The chain-like tattoo coiled around her arm, looking quite shocking.

At this moment, a rough and fierce voice suddenly came from the street corner.

"There she is, grab her."

The girl changed her expression, glanced back, and saw four or five big men in leather vests and red cloaks rushing towards her.

The girl did not run, just calmly looked at the big men, saying nothing, with a naturally imposing demeanor.

The big men saw this and dared not make a move.

One of them approached, placing his left hand on his chest and bowing deeply to her.

"Miss Nuannuan, please come back with us, don't make it difficult for us."

Nuannuan snorted, the Golden Butterfly in her hand glimmered slightly: "What if I don't go back?"

The big man bowed awkwardly, speaking softly.

"Then we will have to follow Miss all the way to ensure your safety."

The girl snorted lightly, stomped her foot.

"With you idiots following me, what's the point of playing outside? Let's go."

She said this and turned to leave angrily.

The big men followed her respectfully.

However, at this moment, Nuannuan suddenly plucked a few Golden Butterflies and hurled them backwards violently.

The butterflies transformed into several spots of Golden Light, whizzing towards the big men with a sharp sound.

The big men were startled and hastily dodged.

Seizing this moment, Nuannuan flickered to the street entrance with incredible speed.

At that moment, a black man suddenly blocked the street entrance.

His dark gunbarrel aimed at Nuannuan, his voice low.

"Miss Nuannuan, you better come with us, otherwise, I'll have to shoot you with a tranquilizer and take you away."

The black man was tall and strong, exuding a formidable Essence Qi, Nuannuan seemed very wary of him, stepping back one step at a time.

Nuannuan's fingers touched the Golden Butterfly, the black man immediately sneered.

"Miss Nuannuan, I know your Golden Butterfly is powerful."

"But I assure you, before you shoot your butterfly, you'll be hit by a tranquilizer, and it won't feel pleasant. You better surrender."

At that moment, someone appeared in the twilight, chuckling coldly: "That's not certain."

Yang Fei slowly appeared behind Nuannuan, conjuring two Playing Cards in his hand like magic.

"It's you?"

Nuannuan turned to look at Yang Fei, then sighed.

"Kind sir, you better leave, you can't handle this."

The black man's gun aimed at Yang Fei: "Who are you, how dare you interfere!"

Yang Fei sighed slightly: "I'm not very brave, but sometimes not too timid, depending on my mood."

The black man, angered by his mocking tone, pointed his gun at Yang Fei and squeezed the trigger.

Nuannuan cried out: "No!"

Clang!

A sharp metallic sound echoed, Yang Fei flung the card with a wave of his hand.

The big man screamed, the finger on the trigger was sliced half off by the sharp card, bloodily dropping to the ground.

He endured the pain and reached for the gun again.

Yang Fei charged, performing a Swallows Fly Together and clamping his neck, then with a crack, twisted and broke his neck bone.

This kill move was crisp and decisive, the girl screamed on the side.

Not far away, three or four big men slung their rifles off their backs, charging over.

Yang Fei grabbed the girl's hand, surging forward with wind-like speed.

The two rushed out of the marketplace, as night fully fell, with the sound of gunfire behind gradually fading.

After a long while, Yang Fei finally stopped, the girl pulled her hand away, Yang Fei was puzzled: "What's wrong?"

The girl rubbed her hand, pouting.

"You're so strong, you hurt me."

Yang Fei chuckled, shook his head, and couldn't help but ask.

"Who were those people? Why were they chasing you?"

The girl's amber eyes were tender like water under the night.

"Why did you save me?"

Yang Fei was taken aback, he hadn't thought much when rescuing her. Now, he pondered over his words.

"Perhaps it was because you gave me a Golden Butterfly Flower earlier, or maybe because I felt you were one of my own."

The girl shook her head: "But saving me brought you a world of trouble, or possibly danger, I... I'm sorry!"

Yang Fei laughed heartily, pulling out a cigarette from his pocket and lighting it up.

"I'm the type of person who always seems to find trouble wherever I go, but it's always trouble that's afraid of me, I'm never afraid of it."

He thought secretly, if this girl knew he had already tangled with the biggest local trouble, the Heavenly Fire Sect, would she be frightened?

The girl giggled, tilting her head to size up Yang Fei.

"You're quite interesting, let's be friends, I'm Nuannuan."

She extended her hand to Yang Fei, who shook it, smiling slightly.

"Yang Fei, you can call me Brother Fei."

As they shook hands, Yang Fei continued to ask.

"By the way, you still haven't told me why they were chasing you, did you steal something from them?"

Nuannuan pouted, casting an adorable white-eye at Yang Fei.

"I'm not a thief, I didn't ask your secrets, so don't ask mine, alright?"

Yang Fei smiled wryly, having to nod.

"Then let's part ways here, I have things to take care of, be careful yourself."

Nuannuan glanced at the dark night sky and became anxious.

"Hey, hey, leaving a delicate girl in a dangerous dark desert is not gentlemanly."

Yang Fei sighed helplessly.

"But what I'm going to do might be dangerous, I can't take you with me."

Nuannuan pouted, snorting lightly.

"Aren't you just going to Hausen's Castle? What's so special about that? I'm going too."

Yang Fei was surprised, looking at Nuannuan: "How do you know?"

Saying this, Yang Fei's tone turned icy cold.

This girl of unknown origins and with a keen understanding of his thoughts was not a good sign.
