Shuangshuang furrowed her brows in deep thought. The journey here had been smooth, and she thought going back would also be safe. However, despite the potential trouble, Shuangshuang wasn't too worried. Her skills now were incomparable to before, and she was confident she could protect the ladies from any number of bandits.
Without waiting for the ladies to notice anything amiss and panic, Shuangshuang immediately ordered them to gather with their maids and servants.
Then, she commanded her bandit escort masters to encircle them rigorously for protection. Shuangshuang took the prepared longsword and led at the front, mainly guarding against the tall grass on either side.
Fortunately, there were no towering mountains or valleys on either side, making it impossible for an ambush from above. If there were, simply throwing stones or shooting arrows from above would be enough to make Shuangshuang flustered for a while.
