Chapter 706: Chapter 706: A Cruel Scene (First Update)
Hearing what Miss Xiya had to say, the village head and the butcher, and everyone else fell silent.
Indeed.
To this small town, a Second Rank Samurai was very powerful but placed in the city, he might be nothing at all.
At that moment, Xiya licked her lips, her eyes twinkling with an excited, bloodthirsty light, “Ever since I’ve come to this damn place, I’ve been bored to death every day. Since someone has come knocking today, let’s start a slaughter feast then!”
The village head and the butcher looked at this noble person, exchanged glances, and then grinned viciously, “As you wish, your honor.”
In the shanty area, the siblings Chen Atu and Chen Xiaomei were still awake.
Chen Atu seemed a bit too excited, fiddling with the materials he got today, then prattled on nonstop.
“Xiaomei, this is called a marching cloak, touch it, isn’t it very smooth? With this, I can go deeper into the wilderness and then I’ll be able to get more resources.”
“This is a night pearl, a treasure that can shine without burning precious oils or candles! With it, I can even enter the wilderness at night to collect resources.”
Chen Xiaomei listened quietly, smiling occasionally, but after Chen Atu finished introducing everything, she spoke in a low voice, “Brother, you almost didn’t make it back today, did you?”
At the mention of this matter, Chen Atu shivered, then laughed it off haughtily, “I thought I could catch a lone Demon Wolf, but who knew these Demon Wolves were so cunning, even setting traps! Fortunately, our lord arrived just in time, otherwise it would have been a bit troublesome.”
Chen Atu tried his best to make light of the matter, as if it were an utterly ordinary little thing.

However, tears began to fill the dull eyes of Chen Xiaomei, and with a trembling voice, she said, “Brother, this time you were lucky, an honored one came to your rescue. But next time? The time after that? Are we to rely on luck then?”
Chen Atu hung his head in silence.
With her keen intuition, Chen Xiaomei reached out to gently touch Chen Atu’s cheek,
“Brother, promise me you won’t take risks for my sake anymore, okay? Even if it means picking up trash on the edge of the wilderness, don’t go deeper. It’s too dangerous in there!”
“Yeah!” Chen Atu replied softly.
“Actually, the lord we met today might need a follower, brother, you could ask him, and then…”.
“Don’t speak anymore,” Chen Atu cut off his sister’s words, with determination in his voice, “I will not abandon you and leave!”
Chen Xiaomei seemed to have anticipated Chen Atu’s response and let out a soft sigh, “Brother…”.
“Let’s not talk about this anymore! It’s late, let’s go to sleep,” said Chen Atu in a soft voice before he got up to return to their little sleeping nook in the back.
Chen Xiaomei sat there somewhat dazed, and it took a long while before she finally heaved a deep sigh.
Just then, Chen Atu, who had just laid out his bedding and was about to lie down to rest, suddenly sat up, his gaze shifting uncertainly toward the door.
“Who’s there?”
No sooner had he spoken,
than the already battered wooden door burst apart, and the butcher, holding two boning knives, slowly walked in.
He sneered at the Chen siblings, “Good evening, Chen siblings!”
Chen Atu was startled, got up, and was about to say something when he saw the village head, along with many bodyguards walk in behind the butcher, and someone else was standing behind the village head.
“Yao Xiaofei?” A chill went down Ah Tu’s spine, and he had a bad feeling about this.
Just then, a disdainful female voice came from outside, “What a disgustingly dirty place! I hope my trip here hasn’t been in vain!”
As she spoke, Xiya slowly walked in.
Such a gorgeously dressed young girl made Ah Tu’s blood run cold because he could sense several extremely terrifying presences behind her.
He instinctively shielded Chen Xiaomei behind him, trying his hardest to remain calm, “Honorable sirs, what business do you have with me?”
Xiya giggled flirtatiously, “Little fellow, still trying to talk tough, are we? Hand over the pure water now, or else…”
Ah Tu felt a wave of despair wash over him. His worst fear was happening still, his face remained unchanged as he said, “Honorable sir, I think you must be mistaken. We are but a group of drifters who can’t even afford a bottle of Second Rank water, let alone pure water.”
But no sooner had he finished speaking, than Yao Xiaofei excitedly blurted out, “Chen Atu, stop playing dumb. I saw everything with my own eyes. You have not just top-grade pure water, but you even used it to clean your monstrous sister’s wounds!”
Ah Tu’s face changed, “Yao Xiaofei, don’t falsely accuse me!”
No sooner had the words left his lips than a massive force suddenly struck him, sending Ah Tu flying.
“Brother!” Chen Xiaomei cried out in shock.
Xiya looked at Chen Xiaomei’s grotesque face with some disgust, then said coldly, “I’m telling you to hand over the pure water now; who gave you permission to talk nonsense?”
Struck so hard he couldn’t breathe and his chest was in agony, Ah Tu still shook his head at her words, “Sir, I truly don’t know…”
Ah Tu was very aware that at this moment, to comply was to definitely die, and to refuse might offer a slim chance of life.
However, upon hearing his words, Xiya laughed and licked her lips, “Very well, since you won’t say, then I hope you and your sister will enjoy the dinner I’ve prepared for the two of you!”
With those words, Xiya slowly approached Chen Xiaomei.
“You… what are you doing? Let go of my sister!” Ah Tu roared in fury, struggling to get up.
But the village chief, seemingly out of nowhere, was already in front of him. He kicked Ah Tu down and stood on his face.
“Chen youngster, it’s your own fault for not having that good fortune!”
Meanwhile, Xiya had already drawn near to Chen Xiaomei, her expression a mix of disgust and excitement.
“Little girl, don’t be afraid! It won’t hurt much!”
No sooner had she finished speaking.
A scream from a young girl echoed throughout the entire slum.
And then came Chen Atu’s voice, enraged beyond measure, “Let go of Xiaomei! Ahhhh!”
The ensuing screams happened because Xiya found Chen Atu’s shouting too annoying. At a nod from her, the Demon Wolf grinned malevolently as he stepped forward, and with a single thrust, he pierced Chen Atu’s palm and pinned it viciously to the ground.
Chen Atu writhed in pain, but the village chief kept a firm foot on his head, casually pulling out a pipe, lighting it, and taking a deep puff.
“Chen boy, enjoy the show! This young lady is considered a very patient artist even within the city walls! Blood is her paintbrush, and screams are the wellspring of her creation. What a delightful spectacle indeed!”
The village chief’s words were full of praise, but Chen Atu’s eyes had already turned blood red.
