Chapter 492 - Fear
Everyone dazedly for a while before realizing that they had emerged victorious, but none of them cheered; the majority of them slumped to the ground. Then, they started panting as the adrenaline wore off before sobbing and vomiting at the gory sight.
Those who had traveled with Li Huowang from Zephyr Temple were fine because they had gotten used to such a sight.
Chun Xiaoman wiped away the blood on her face before slumping to the ground and realizing that she was covered in cold sweat.
“It’s fine. The masters that we\'ve invited into our body have simply left; this is the aftereffect of that.”
Yang Xiaohai and Gao Zhijian sighed upon seeing that it wasn\'t just Chun Xiaoman.
“Goodness, Xiucai. You really are useless. The treasure that Li Huowang gave me is so much better. Luckily, I don\'t have to learn what you guys are trying to learn right now,” Puppy said, revealing the wish wood in his hands.
“Fuck off! That was the easiest divine chant. Do you really think that you can match up with us? Just wait until I learn the second and third divine chants; we\'re going to fight and see who is stronger between us!”
“Oh? Look at you. Let’s fight, then! Let’s even bet on it!”
“Puppy, are you done? You really think this is the time to be bickering? Support us back the estate! Can’t you see that Gao Zhijian is hurt?”
Those lucky enough to sustain only a few injuries helped those with heavier injuries into the Bai Family Estate. They placed quite a few torches on the wall to prevent any ambushes.
They had won, but Cowheart Village was clouded in sadness. It was all because twelve people had perished tonight, and their bodies were covered in white cloth and were lined up in the hall The village didn\'t have many villagers, so the twelve people whom they had lost were both their friends and family members.
Lu Zhuangyuan smoked his pipe with a frown. Out of the twelve who died, two of them were his disciples, and one of them was even the disciple who had the most potential.
What a shame, Lu Zhuangyuan thought.
“Sigh, I thought things were going swimmingly for us, and I thought the Liang Kingdom was a peaceful place, so how come we just got attacked by bandits?”
“They weren\'t bandits.” Chun Xiaoman said. She was in the middle of treating Yang Xiaohai. “They were talking about some God Yu’er or something. They seem to be worshiping some deity.”
“I agree. Bandits once came to my village, and they charged into the largest house to rob the food and money in there. They\'d never kill mere serfs like us,” said one of the militia members.
Lu Zhuangyuan knocked his smoke pipe on the pillar and took out some fresh tobacco from his pouch before asking, “Why are they going around murdering people? Isn’t working hard for a peaceful life hard enough?"
“If you want to know why they attacked us, you can just ask them yourself,” Puppy said, dragging "something" into the hall.
The others were shocked at the sight. Puppy had just dragged a human being into the hall, but the latter looked barely human; his limbs were twisted, and some of his facial features were missing.
“How’s my divine needles? My needles have paralyzed him. He can’t run away nor die, so it’s nice that we get to interrogate him.”
No one said anything as they looked at the twisted human in front of them.
“How should we interrogate him? Senior Li is the best at doing it, but he’s not here.”
“Let me do it!” Chun Xiaoman exclaimed. She was still furious about Nan’er\'s death, so she wasted no time and grabbed a bamboo broom from the corner of the wall before smacking the man’s face with it. She did not stop until the man\'s twisted figure was bruised. “Talk! Why did you come here to kill us?”
“Fucking bitch! Kill me if you can! I\'m just going to become God Yu’er’s ghost when I die! I will become an emperor in my next life. You fools who do not worship him will reincarnate into pigs and dogs—destined to eat shit all day!” the man’s mouth, which was resting on his elbow, taunted Chun Xiaoman.
“You really think that I wouldn’t dare to kill you?!" Chun Xiaoman took out her sword and placed it on the man’s neck. Chun Xiaoman glared at the man as the latter smiled at her.
“No, this won’t work. My turn.” Puppy walked out of the hall. When he returned, he was wearing a red robe and was carrying a bag full of many different knives.
“Senior Puppy, why are you wearing Senior Li’s clothes? And why did you bring my butchering knives with you?” Yang Xiaohai was curious.
“Stop talking and just look!” Puppy squatted next to the man and coughed. He imitated Li Huowang’s tone of voice as he said, “I know that you are not afraid of death, but how about I make you wish that you were dead?”
With that, he placed the knives and implements neatly on the ground. There were hooks used to hang the pig, a sharp knife used to stab the pig’s heart, a broad cleaver used to cut the bones, and even a small knife used to shave the pig’s fur.
The man’s eyes twitched at the sight. “You motherfucker! Kill me if you dare!”
“Oh? You have guts. I wonder where I should start?”
Rather than a knife, Puppy picked up an ordinary yet thick hemp rope. “Hehe, you did not expect me to take this, did you? I should use this as an appetizer. I\'m sure you know that hemp ropes aren\'t as smooth as silk, right?
"Look at how rough it is, hehehe...” Puppy rubbed the hemp rope on the man’s skin, and the man\'s skin turned red due to friction. “I\'ll place this rope between your crotch and rub it back and forth like a saw. It’s not a knife, but it\'s so rough that it would grind your skin and flesh into pulp.”
The man’s eyes flashed in a fearful light, and he trembled at Puppy\'s remark.
“Oh, and because I will be rubbing it over your crotch...” Puppy proceeded to describe in great, graphic detail what was going to happen to the man. The man broke down and cried before Puppy could finish his explanation.
“Stop! Stop! I\'ll speak! Just kill me afterward!” the man roared, his face covered in snot and tears.
Puppy clapped his hands in excitement and turned around. “See? Did you see that?"
Rather than worship and praise, everyone stared at him with wary eyes.
“Why are you looking at me like that? I didn’t do anything. I was just mimicking Li Huowang...”
