Chapter 667: The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor
Chapter 667: The Causes and Consequences of the Five Beasts’ Fury (4)
Mao Tuan's eyes suddenly lit up like two small lanterns in the dark. It let out an excited tiger-like roar and, with eager steps, approached the bandits one by one. Its sharp gaze swept over them, as if assessing which bandit had the hardest bones.
The air around Mao Tuan was charged with an extremely dangerous aura. Each bandit who met its gaze felt as if they would be knocked to the ground and have their flesh torn away layer by layer, exposing their white bones. The mere thought of this scene sent shivers down the bandits’ spines, causing them to instinctively step back in fear.
Seeing Mao Tuan's actions slow, Mo Yan urged, “Hurry up, don’t dawdle. We still need to get home and sleep!”
Upon hearing this, Mao Tuan no longer hesitated. It headed towards a thin, sharp-faced bandit, who was the most restless, constantly elbowing backward. Such a person, full of scheming thoughts, might not fear much, but he certainly feared death. It was perfect to use him as a lesson to others.
In the space, snowball watched the scene with amusement, but Mao Tuan’s next action made it stop laughing immediately.
The sharp-faced bandit turned pale with fright as Mao Tuan approached step by step. The searing pain from his previously bitten limbs returned, making him shiver uncontrollably. His voice, sharp and desperate, was like a woman about to be beaten: “D-don’t come closer, please don’t…”
Before he could finish, Mao Tuan’s heavy paw pressed him down, and then it struck his groin mercilessly.
Mao Tuan had heard this lewd and shameless human talk about how he intended to deal with Yan’er. By destroying his manhood, Mao Tuan ensured he would never be a male again for the rest of his life.
The paw strike was precise and brutal, directly tearing off the bandit’s genitals. The sharp-faced bandit, unable to endure the pain, let out a horrifying scream. Despite his cries, even if gods descended, he would never be a man again for the rest of his life.
Mo Yan was stunned by Mao Tuan’s ferocity, unable to recover for a while. Once she realized what Mao Tuan had done, she instinctively covered her eyes and pushed Mao Tuan away, who was eagerly coming over to show off.
...
By the time ten shadow guards arrived following the traces, Mo Yan had already identified the mastermind. She was sprinkling medicinal powder all over the bandits, who were writhing on the ground. To an outsider, it might look like a compassionate young woman was tending to the wounded.
Mo Yan was indeed treating the bandits' wounds to ensure they didn’t die before they reached the courthouse, as both she and Mao Tuan would have to bear the karmic consequences. However, she had added extra ingredients to the medicinal powder, making it extremely painful for the bandits.
Each of these bandits had a life on their hands, and Mo Yan never intended to let them go easily.
Seeing the sudden arrival of the ten shadow guards, Mo Yan’s hand shakingly paused for a moment. She then realized that if the guards had malicious intentions, the Five Beasts would have already attacked them. Her anxieties were immediately put at ease.
The ten shadow guards, witnessing the scene, admired Mo Yan. The howls of agony from the bandits made it clear that this seemingly fragile young woman was no pushover. Not only did she scare the vicious bandits out of their wits, but her composure was also something ordinary people couldn’t match.
If Mo Yan knew they were thinking this, she would probably laugh nonstop. Her courage to come here at night to rescue people and her ruthless treatment of the bandits were entirely dependent on her space and the Five Beasts. Without these, even if she had a hundred times the courage, she wouldn’t dare to take such risks.
With thirty to forty bandits still needing treatment, Mo Yan unceremoniously handed the medicinal powder to the shadow guards, saying calmly, “You arrived just in time. Once the medicine is applied, please take these bandits to the courthouse. Of course, if there is a better place for them, you can handle it as you see fit.”
The shadow guards exchanged glances, expecting her to at least ask about their master. Instead, she seemed to know everything and gave orders directly. It was clear why she was valued by the three important figures.
With this thought, the ten shadow guards responded in unison, “Yes!”
Seeing that they truly complied without any dissatisfaction, Mo Yan confirmed her suspicions and couldn’t help but smile. At this moment, she thought all ten were sent by Xiao Ruiyuan to protect her family and was unaware that some were actually from Yan Junyu and Chu Heng.
Leaving the bandits to the shadow guards, Mo Yan and Mo Qingze led the still somewhat frightened children back home through the night.
With so many people, and the Five Beasts being naturally proud, they allowed Mo Qingze to ride only out of respect for Mo Yan. They would never let these young children ride, and Mo Yan naturally didn’t insist, as it would be an insult to the Five Beasts.
Despite the earlier commotion, the children were now aware of the Five Beasts’ presence. Though they were a bit scared, the thought that the Five Beasts had saved them made their fear gradually fade, and they even looked at them with stars in their eyes in admiration.
Watching the Five Beasts leading the way, the children temporarily forgot their fear and excitedly discussed among themselves, no longer finding the mountain road difficult.
Mo Yan and Mo Qingze carried the youngest children who couldn’t walk, listening to their innocent chatter. Their smiles never left their faces.
In times of fear, they cried; in times of joy, they laughed. That’s how simple a child’s world is!
