Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

At that moment, the mountain stronghold was filled with all kinds of lively noises. The guards of the Yu family and the Leonard family had all been kept captive. On the tiger-skin throne in front of them, Luther was drinking hard liquor one mouthful at a time. He seemed to be in a good mood.

That was because he had captured the young heirs of the Leonard family and the Yu family. He would become famous. After all, those two were the heirs of the most prominent families of New Moon City.

“Sir mountain bandit!”

Then, a humble voice came from the cage.

That voice belonged to Lewis. His face was full of tears and he begged, “Sir mountain bandit, I admit my mistake. I shouldn’t have provoked you. You are magnanimous so please let me go. My family is rich. I will give you as much as you want!”

In reality, that entire situation snowballed from the actions of the troublemaker, Lewis.

Earlier, while they were on their way to Black Wind Castle, a group of mountain bandits came across Lewis and the others by chance. However, it seemed that the mountain bandits had not intended to capture them. Instead, they asked them to drop their food, armor, and weapons with the intention of letting them go if they complied.

However, Lewis assumed that they were just ordinary mountain bandits. He immediately wanted to show off his grandeur in front of Yu Meng and mocked Luther.

Luther was a prideful person, so naturally, he was unhappy when he heard Lewis’s taunt. With his skill as a grand swordmaster, he easily defeated Lewis.

Yu Meng wanted to use magic to counterattack, but her opponent was a fully formed grand swordmaster. She was only a beginner in magic so she was defeated in a few moves.

The entire team was instantly defeated by a group of mountain bandits, and they were dragged up to the mountain stronghold one by one.

“Please, sir, don’t kill me. I haven’t even gotten married yet!” Lewis cried out loudly. He saw a few big guys approaching him with axes in their hands. He was so scared that a wet stain appeared on his pants.

Although the other young heirs who were caught were also very nervous and desperate, they were not as overdramatic as Lewis. When they saw Lewis’s pathetic state, all of them had looks of disdain.

However, Luther did not care at all. To him, Lewis deserved to die. If it was not for the Leonard family’s petty tricks to frame him back then, he would not have fallen into such a state.

Now that the tables have turned, the young master of the Leonard family had finally fallen into his hands. Naturally, he would not let him return alive.

As for that lady from the Yu family.

Luther carefully observed Yu Meng. He noticed her slender figure, fair skin, and pretty face. He immediately said, “Bring that girl here!”

A few mountain bandits pulled Yu Meng out of the handcuffs.

At that moment, Yu Meng’s face was full of unwillingness, but she was still forced to kneel down. Luther slowly walked over, lifted her chin with his hand, and inspected her face.

She was indeed beautiful, and she was the daughter of the Yu Meng family.

“Your name is Yu Meng, right?”

Yu Meng did not respond. She turned her head away and remained stubborn.

“Hehe, I can spare your life, and I can let the guards of the Yu family go, but you have to promise to stay here and be my wife!”

“In your dreams!”

Yu Meng replied decisively, which made Luther even more interested. He laughed and said, “Good! You have a strong personality. I like it.”

“But, you have to think carefully. If you don’t agree, I will kill them all. By then, they won’t be blaming me, but you instead!”

“You!”

Yu Meng raised her head and glared at Luther.

However, Luther did not care at all. Ever since he became the chief of the bandits, he had become stronger. He was not afraid of anyone, especially not the captured girl before him.

“So what will it be? As long as you agree, I will let them go!”

Hearing that, a glimmer of hope lit up in Lewis, who had just been trying to survive. He shouted at Luther, “Sir bandit, please let me help you persuade her!”

After hearing that, Luther waved his arms and signaled the two men to put down their axes.

“I’ll give you a chance.”

Lewis was finally freed from the chains. He quickly pulled Yu Meng aside and tried to persuade her. “Yu Meng, this is a good opportunity to save everyone!”

“What good opportunity? Are you crazy?” Yu Meng turned her head away. She did not want to see Lewis act so pathetically.

“For goodness sake, it’s not like I’m asking you to die. As long as you agree, then we can all live.”

After Yu Meng heard that, her heart wavered. She turned to look at the group of guards and young heirs. She sighed helplessly.

Lewis continued to persuade her, “Also, look at the chief bandit. He’s a talented person with incredible strength. After you become the wife of the chief bandit, you would have money, power, and freedom. Isn’t this better than being in charge of the Yu family?”

Hearing Lewis’s words, Yu Meng’s stubbornness slowly wanned. However, she did not really believe his words. She just wanted to stall for time and then slowly think of a way to escape.

“Ah, Yu Meng, listen to me...”

Before Lewis could finish, Yu Meng turned around with a determined look in her eyes and said to Luther, “I will accept!”

Lewis was overjoyed, while Luther smiled and shouted to the bandits, “Hurry up and prepare for the wedding. I’m going to have it tonight!”

“Hold on!”

Suddenly, Yu Meng added, “The rule of the Yu family is that you can only marry under the new moon. It’s only sunset, and the new moon hasn’t come out yet.”

Luther frowned and said, “I don’t care about your rules.”

However, since she had agreed, he would not mind waiting a little longer.

As for Lewis, he said in a low and humble voice, “Well... Sir bandit, since she has agreed, can we...”

Luther pointed at the bandits behind him and said loudly, “Disarm those people of thier weapons and armor then let them go!”

Hearing that, Lewis was overjoyed and said, “Okay!”

However, when Lewis turned around, a sharp sword suddenly stopped him.

He was so scared that his face turned pale. He slowly turned and said, “That... Sir bandit, didn’t you agree to... Let us go?”

Luther smiled and said, “They can leave, but you can’t. Today is my wedding day. I have to kill someone to cheer me up!”

That sentence made Lewis fall into despair again. He knelt on the ground and begged, “Sir bandit, please don’t kill me.. There are so many guards in my family. Just pick one and kill him!”
