449 Cruel Methods (1/2)
”You are dreaming!” The three scholars snorted. They had obviously anticipated that Jun Mo Xie would put forward some conditions since he had grabbed those women. However, they had never expected such whimsical conditions. How could that be possible?
[They are our wives. But, they still aren't anything more than ornaments of convenience…]
”Don't worry. You have a second option…” Jun Mo Xie raised a second finger, and lowered his voice, ”These three women are your wives, and I can't put them to any use at present. But let me assure you one thing — You won't want them once they've spent one day with these pigs and dogs. So, I will then sell them to the cheapest and filthiest brothels in Tian Xiang! After all, you may not wish to use them again for their bad name, but do you think that the others would mind? Do you think you will like that?
”And, please don't doubt that I can do it. After all, I have the means to invite these ladies here. So, it also means that I have enough capability to accomplish everything else that I've stated. And, you needn't be worried about the other matter either. You see… the truth is that this Young Master has a full packet of aphrodisiac in his hands. And, this aphrodisiac works regardless of whether it's a dog or a hog; it can induce full vitality in them!”
”You're evil, Jun Mo Xie! You're doing a very heartless thing! Those three are innocent! The entire world is looking at you! And, you still dare to do this?!” The three scholars had gone deathly pale. In fact, they didn't have any color left to their appearance…
”Why can't I? Why wouldn't I? You're using such despicable means to target an innocent woman. So, why can't this Young Master do the same? Don't I know that they're innocent? Doesn't this remind you of something? After all, they are guilty of being your wives even if they innocent! And, you're a group of men who know a woman is innocent, but you're still using such shameless strategies against her! The world is looking at me. But, do you think that they aren't looking at you?!”
Jun Mo Xie taunted and sneered, ”Do you want to try it?”
Qin Qiu Shi didn't wish to abandon his endeavor half way. But, his prospects would be ruined if the others became weak. Moreover, the Jun Family's men seemed fierce, but they were good natured men. Therefore, he didn't believe that Jun Mo Xie would ruthlessly insult innocent women in public. So, he acted tough, and angrily spoke-up, ”Jun Mo Xie, you're a shameless lowlife! You're lowly-enough to use innocent women to coerce us! Your Jun Family's name will eternally live-on in infamy if you charge into using our beloved wives!”
Jun Mo Xie replied with an exceptionally cold and cruel laugh, ”Isn't that my usual conduct? Isn't my usual behavior a household story? Didn't you know about it? This Young Master is a tyrannical being who doesn't shirk from any crime. You do know this, right?
”Oh, and then there's the talk of innocence… you even have the guts to talk to me about innocence? Who's more innocent in reality? You start shouting of innocence when it comes to the things that are related to you. In fact, you start shouting about heaven's will, and humanity! But, your strategies become extremely contemptible when it comes to other innocent women. In fact, you become ruthless, and you commit all manners of crimes! So, what moral standing do you have to speak of innocence? Fu*k you! Let me ask you — has your conscience been eaten away by dogs? You stand at the so-called 'height of morality' so that you can needlessly entrap and insult others?”
Yan Feng and Han Zhi Dong hesitated for a long while at the back. They looked around at the crowd, and believed that they had their support. So, they became courageous and shouted in chorus, ”We stand for the tranquility of the world, and the purification of everything under the heavens. Would you dare to do this?”
Jun Mo Xie's glare became dense, and his voice became extremely cold, ”Tranquility of this world? Purification of everything under the heavens…? This Young Master will kill you in broad daylight; how about that? I had previously planned to deal with you after a little while. But, I'll come and help you right now since you're so impatient. Wait; let me look for someone to help you undress your pantaloons. Then, I'll give you some amazing medicines. We'll see how you upright gentlemen's minds don't become a mess after that. We'll leave you a crazed state, but we won't give you a way to solve your problem. However, these hogs and dogs have plenty of elderly female relatives. And, they won't let any harm come to you. Do you think that this Young Master won't dare to do it?”
Young Master Jun jumped off the horse, and walked towards them. He lightly used his horsewhip on Qin Qiu Shi's head. Then, he stroked his pale cheek with his whip and asked in a soft voice, ”You're upright and honorable gentlemen who have a habit of insulting and trampling on other people. So, let me insult you today, okay? Also, allow me to give you the wonderful taste of a man that being bullied!”
Qin Qiu Shi subconsciously raised his head with the whip's movement. His expression was one of grief and terror. However, he didn't dare to spit even half-a-word. After all, he knew of the Young Master's behavior and past exploits. So, he knew that this man was fully capable of such acts…
The Jun Family's fate would be meaningless to them if they were to be trifled with in this manner. And, that's because they wouldn't be able to see the Jun Family's fate unfold. After all, even mere humiliation was enough to make them lose their will to live…
These men had previously remained unyielding because of a rotten notion — women were like clothes, and men were like the bodies. It wasn't that they hadn't cared about the humiliations Jun Mo Xie had described he would subject their women to. But, this threat wasn't enough to make them surrender to his conditions. After all, they could always replace their wives in case they had been tainted…
However, it was their turn now. And, it had left their very souls in a genuinely panicky state…
However, they weren't aware that Jun Mo Xie's mind had become gloomy in the face of this scenario. In fact, he had even scolded himself for this miscalculation. After all, he would've never been able to forgive himself if he had done those things to their wives, and had later come to realize that they genuinely hadn't cared about it. Therefore, he instantly changed targets to those people themselves. And, this change in tactics yielded great results…
”Why aren't you speaking now? Weren't you people devoted to righteousness a moment ago? Look at the people behind you — they don't know the truth. But, you people know it well.”
Jun Mo Xie smiled mischievously, ”It doesn't matter much though. They will also have to pay back if they act thoughtlessly. So, it doesn't matter whether you understand the truth or not. After all, it's meaningless as far as I'm concerned. That's because the outcome will hurt the ones I care about regardless of your reasons or standpoint! And, it won't matter if they're innocent or not if that happens. After all, you will have offended me. And, you will bear the consequences if you offend me!
”I will never spare anyone who offends me! Especially when it comes to hypocrites like yourself! However, those who stand behind you should be glad. After all, I won't implicate their families! But, if you don't do what I want you to do… he he he…” Jun Mo Xie chuckled in a sinister manner, ”I have a bad reputation. But, I'll guarantee that it'll be much better than yours. So, let's try it out if you don't believe me. What was it that you had said — the Young Master wouldn't dare; he wouldn't do it…?”
Strange noises emanated from Qin Qiu Shi's throat. His eyes shone brightly in fear as he staggered back to stand between Yan Feng and Han Zhi Dong. Then, the three men trembled, and started to shudder violently. They couldn't even think at this time — forget about daring to fight. Moreover, that previously 'built-up devotion to righteousness' had already been obliterated from their bodies by now…
Jun Mo Xie's conduct was imposing and sinister at this moment. His mannerism was extremely calm, and his words didn't contain any hint of venom. And, this had left them to feel that this youngster would easily do what he had said he would…
He was like a King who had descended from the heavens, and had then proclaimed the future and fate of his people.
These three wouldn't be able to stay in Tian Xiang if they did what he had told them to. They would become the most despised amongst the lowest rungs of society if they shouted the chants he wanted to hear. Even the scholarly power which they had always attached themselves to wouldn't accept the three men. After all, they had stood out in front of their peers. So, they couldn't turn their backs to get out of this predicament even they had wanted to…
