As Bai Yaoyao spoke, her gaze turned icy cold. Her heart felt conflicted as she watched those soldiers push the old woman.

She couldn't lose her cool and cause this mission to fail.

She came to look for Duan Yanhao. She had to save him and couldn't be impulsive.

The female soldier could feel Bai Yaoyao's grip on her hand tightening. Her body turned stiff, and she could tell that Bai Yaoyao was trying to contain herself.

“Elder Sister Bai, our commander treats his people differently. Our troops in the north aren't as violent, and we'll never abuse our citizens like that. The Duan family is a military household too, but Young Master Duan is so righteous.”

“That's right. The south cannot be compared to us. After we find Young Master Duan, we'll conquer the south.”

Bai Yaoyao and the female soldiers continued to walk and think about the current situation.

Judging by what they've witnessed, it was clear why the south hadn't progressed as rapidly as the north. The citizens in the south had been oppressed by their leaders and hadn't been living well.

The citizens in the south didn't respect their soldiers. They feared and even detested them.

After witnessing the southern troops kicking away an old lady who was begging for food, Bai Yaoyao couldn't take it anymore.

“My sisters, there are about ten patrolling soldiers here. Listen to my plan and kill all of them. A group of us will change into their uniform, and the others will continue to pretend to be citizens before meeting with the rest.”

After relaying her instructions, the lot of them found a good chance and started to work together.

They secretly silenced the soldiers patrolling in the area.

However, they were still discovered by a middle-aged woman. Her eyes were wide open as she waved her hand before gasping quietly, “I didn't see anything… You're nice people…”

That lady walked to the side and helped the unconscious old lady up, bringing her back into the house.

Bai Yaoyao and another soldier stepped forward to help those ladies home.

After arriving at the lady's home, Bai Yaoyao realized that it was located near the foot of a mountain. A thick forest loomed behind the house, making it a great hiding spot.

However, she still smelled the blood in the air.

“Madam, do you know about the ambush last night?”

 The lady shuddered in fear and shook her head frantically. “I don't know anything…”

Seeing her reaction, Bai Yaoyao met Li Meng's eyes, and they both knew that the lady must know something.

“Do you hate being ruled by the troops in the south? If the southern troops were to kill the ones of the north, the citizens in the north will also be ruled in the same manner as you. Could you bear to let that happen?”

 “Stop asking me. I don't know anything. Thank you for helping us. You're nice people, but please leave.”

“Madam, please tell us for the sake of the children. If the northern troops win, you'll be free. Your children, the elderly, and you will be able to live normally. You will be safe and sound.”

Bai Yaoyao and two other soldiers continued to persuade the lady.

In the end, the lady trembled as she pointed towards the mountain behind them. “Go search in the back. I don't know if they're alive or not. Please don't ever return.”

Bai Yaoyao bowed to thank the lady. All communications had been cut off in the south, and it was difficult to send out any messages, making it challenging to locate Duan Yanhao.
