Chapter 71-73

Chapter 71 – Giving People a Taste of Their Own Medicine

Ji Fengyan smiled cheerfully as she looked at Lei Xu. ”Fengyan hasn't read too many books and has never heard of such a mundane saying. I only know that I'm Ji City's city lord, holding His Majesty's decree of appointment. Those who aren't respectful towards me aren't respectful towards His Majesty! What does Lei Min count as, daring to question His Majesty?”

When Lei Xu heard Ji Fengyan's words, he almost spat out a mouthful of blood. That decree of appointment in her hands was her biggest counter towards him and was the reason why he hadn't dared to directly crush her to death! However, from what she displayed before and her habit of taking things lying down, Lei Xu completely thought that she was weak and easy to take advantage of, but who would have thought…

She was actually a b.a.s.t.a.r.d of a wolf who would bite people.

With Lei Xu present, n.o.body from Ji City would listen to Ji Fengyan's words, however Ling He and the guards were her blades!

Even though Lei Xu's side had the advantage in numbers in the mountainous forests…

One had to know, Ling He and his group weren't ordinary guards!

They had all returned from the battlefield, true soldiers who had experienced countless b.l.o.o.d.y battles!

Lei Xu's eyes suddenly s.h.i.+fted, but there was already little meaning in it as Ling He's group basically ignored his aggressiveness. All ten of them took action, instantly knocking those guards protecting Lei Min onto the ground!

In front of Ling He's group of iron-blooded soldiers, those apparently strong guards were as weak as a piece of tofu.

Before the blink of an eye, Ling He had already taken the lead in carrying Lei Min who had hidden behind the crowd out. As Lei Min gave a blood-curdling scream, Ling He threw him in front of Ji Fengyan, directly stepping him into the mud when he tried to crawl up.

”JI FENGYAN, DON”T GO TOO OVERBOARD!” Lei Xu was completely enraged. The anger in his heart already couldn't be suppressed as he saw his only son being stepped into the ground.

However…

Ji Fengyan only carelessly looked at Lei Xu as her lips slightly slid upwards. ”Questioning the city lord that His Majesty appointed is the same as questioning His Majesty. Sir Lei, are you saying that you want to protect your son? Publicly oppose His Majesty?”

Lei Xu suddenly trembled. Originally, those family leaders behind him wanted to help, but now they all held their breaths. n.o.body would have thought that this unremarkable little brat would actually be so shrewd, unexpectedly bringing out His Majesty's name at this moment. With His Majesty as a cover, n.o.body would've dared to truly oppose Ji Fengyan right now.

Especially since…

Ling He and his group had an advantage in battle power at this time.

Seeing Lei Xu suffocated to the point where his face was turning blue, the smile of Ji Fengyan's lips grew even deeper. Turning around, she looked at Ling He. ”Beat him for me.”

”Yes.” Ling He and the others' eyes flashed. They had long since saw that unfaithful man Lei Min as an eyesore. Now that they had a legitimate reason to beat him, they obviously wouldn't show mercy.

Lei Min still wanted to say something else, but before he could speak, their heavy swords struck down!

Outside in the mountainous wilderness, they obviously couldn't find a cane. Therefore, Ling He and his group wrapped up their heavy swords in a layer of cloth as a subst.i.tute. With a loud smack, the blow landed on Lei Min's posterior!

Those heavy swords forged from profound iron were far from what an ordinary cane could compare to in terms of weight. When that blow landed, it instantly caused Lei Min to scream his throat out. As that heart-rending lung-splitting sound bursted o

ut from his mouth, it sound like a pig being slaughtered.

”Truly a pity that those treasured weapons of Big Brother He and the others were actually used in a place like this. Hah, it truly is making little use of something great.” Ji Fengyan grinned, raising her head to look at Lei Xu whose face was turning purple.

Chapter 72 – Kneel

Ji Fengyan's words were what Lei Xu had just said a while ago. Right now, she returned them back to Lei Xu with a flourish.

Lei Xu's face was extremely unsightly. He could only watch wide-eyed as his son was beaten by Ling He and the others until his skin split and his muscles bursted, the hatred towards Ji Fengyan in heart increasing to its utmost limit. It almost required him to crunch his teeth into pieces before he could finally hold himself back from charging forward.

Ling He's group's battle power was very strong while his side lacked enough people. If they truly did have a conflict and Ji Fengyan gave them another charge, then even if she killed them, it was likely no one would even be able to take her down.

Fifty heavy canings. Even if it was a strong-bodied man, it was still likely that he would have lost half of his life much less Lei Min, this tender-skinned young master.

After being caned ten times, the clothes covering Lei Min's posterior had already become ragged, dyed in red as the thick stench of blood began to spread.

In the beginning Lei Min still continued to curse, but near the end his voice turned to bitter pleading, finally his mouth began to foam and his eyes rolled back.

However, Ling He and the others basically had no intentions of stopping.

As Lei Xu watched, his heart leapt in fright. Seeing his son about to be beaten to death, he ignored everything else and abruptly stepped forward to hold back Ling He's heavy sword. ”You can't keep on beating him! If you keep on beating him then Min'er will die!”

Ling He twisted his lips, obviously not caring about what Lei Xu said.

In their eyes, it would be the best if that little b.a.s.t.a.r.d Lei Min was beaten to death, so why would they let him off?
