The women all turned to look at Lin Yiyi, thetter had indeed hidden this information from them. She did not tell them that this woman was this good that she could defeat more than three hundred mercenaries!
When Lin Yiyi heard that the mercenaries were defeated she was stunned, she thought that Yu Dong came to look for her because the vige was annihted and was thus looking for revenge, she did not think that Yu Dong alone would be able to defeat more than three hundred mercenaries! How was it even possible? How could this woman even deal with the mercenaries so easily?
" You are lying! How could you defeat them!" Lin Yiyi said out loud, not wanting to believe that the vigers were all right. The Big River Vige was a ce where she had gotten poorer and poorer as no one had helped her, what was more her family took such a big risk and they all died.
She wanted the vigers of the Big River Vige to die along with her family so how could they still be all right? They should have died!
Yu Dong sneered upon hearing Lin Yiyi''s words and then said, " What are you talking about? We, the people of the Big River Vige have never done anything wrong and neither do we have a hidden devil inside our hearts, how can we not be fine? It''s only those who do things behind someone''s back who need to watch out."
Of course, Lin Yiyi knew that Yu Dong was taunting her but she did not care about her taunt. She only knew that her father, mother and everyone else died after entering the mountains, they were either caught by wild animals or they were caught by wanderers who were looking for food and water.
If the vigers of the Big River Vige were all right and the mercenaries did not do any harm to them then why did her family take a risk as big as this? What was the point of them taking such a big risk then?
"You… you are lying!" Lin Yiyi did not want to believe that her family died for no reason and thus refused to believe it. But this had nothing to do with Yu Dong, she turned to look at the women who were kneeling in front of her and asked,
" Do you have a territory here?" If they came up the mountains then it could only mean that they were living close by. She had to reign in their territory lest they cause trouble for the vigerster on.
The women no longer dared to disregard what Yu Dong said thus they all cried out.
" Yes, Yes there is indeed a territory where we live!"
"It''s close by, it''s a small vige called the Hawks viger. We only came to live there a few days ago."
Yu Dong raised a brow and then asked, " What do you mean by Hawks vige, I have no idea that such a vige existed."
" It does! It does exist! You might think that we are lying but this is the truth. It came into existence just a few weeks ago, the vigers who moved after the rivers and streams in their vige dried up came to live in the abandoned valley right behind this mountain. The one which is not under the documents of the town as it lies just a few kilometres away from the exilednds."
" So your vige leader was the one who sent you here to get water and food?"
" Thats right, as thend does not fall under the rule of anyone, our leader''s orders are absolute. She is the strongest woman in the vige and thus we have to listen to her no matter what," a woman cried with a pitiful expression.
" And what happens if you don''t return with water and food?" Yu Dong further pressed.
" Then we are left to fend for ourselves," a woman replied with a bitter smile. " The leader sends groups of women to hunt and steal, if we don''t bring back water then she would lock us out of the vige and leave us to die. Only those who return with water are allowed to stay in the vige."

So it was a tyrant''s rule, Yu Dong thought in her head. She looked at the group of women kneeling in front of her and then said, " Bring me to the Hawks vige."
From what she heard the leader of this Hawks vige was most certainly a dangerous woman. She was aiming at other viges by joining hands with those who had to leave their viges for the sake of a better life.
If she had no evil intentions then Yu Dong would have left her alone but it was clear that the woman was using the will to live as a driving force to make these womenmit crimes under her orders.
She could not allow such a woman to live without any trouble, lest that woman be a danger to her. She had learned her lesson after dealing with the mercenaries.
When the women heard the words of Yu Dong, they all turned to look at one another and then exchanged furtive nces with one another. They all had a gloating look in their eyes, if Yu Dong went to the Hawk''s vige with them then there was not even the smallest chance that she woulde out of that ce alive.
After all the vige where they were living at the moment was filled with savages who if possible eat human bones.
" All right we will take you there but you are not allowed to hurt us even more," said the leader of the women. If they were hurt anymore then they might have to lie in bed for the next few days!
Who would allow them such a leisure?
" I am afraid that they are going to ambush us," said one of the mercenaries as she had seen through the thoughts of the women, given that she was the same kind it was impossible for her not to know.
