"You bitch, if you're going to die, at least leave me covered in blood!"

A tall, thin man with a simple and honest face came out from behind, his hand still fastening his belt.

"You little punk, what are you doing?"

This man's name is Little Scoundrel, he has no real name or surname, only this nickname, and he is an old bachelor.

The first person to respond and go to his side when the butcher began to incite the people.

The scoundrel chuckled, his mouth full of lewd intent.

"Brother, the women from wealthy families are just so delicious."

She's just too stubborn; she always tries to kill herself.

The butcher's eyes darkened for a moment, but it quickly vanished and was never seen again.

Being the family members of corrupt officials is their original sin.

The man who had asked the question earlier suddenly brightened up!

"You good-for-nothing, you old codger, you didn't even invite your brother to this good thing."

The scoundrel took a piece of pastry to eat, and only after sitting down properly did he give a serious reply.

"Once we breached the county government office, all of the magistrate's family members committed suicide. What's so fun about dead people? Those maids who served him were alright, but they were quite fierce."

"Brother, we've collected all the gold and silver. What's next?"

The butcher's face was indifferent; he only cared whether his enemies had all "died for a good reason."

"Has the butler been found?"

"Big brother!"

Another group of people dressed as slaves walked in from outside, leading a person who was tied up with ropes into the county government office.

The butcher's eyes flashed with a terrifying cold light as soon as he looked at the man.

"Hero, spare my life! It was all that corrupt official's doing, it has nothing to do with me! I'm just a steward, please spare my life! Please spare my life!"

As the steward was pushed in, he kept kowtowing and begging for mercy. The sight of blood everywhere made him tremble all over.

"Brother, we caught that pig hiding in his cellar, and we caught the whole family!"

The butcher stepped forward, his butcher knife still dripping blood.

This man had clearly been beaten up; his face was covered in slap marks, and his hair was disheveled. Haha, even the steward of the high and mighty county magistrate's family has fallen to this state today.

"Does the head butler still remember me?"

"Hero, spare my life!"

The butler's eyes were blurry as he tried his best to recall, but his mind was completely blank and he couldn't remember anything. However, he couldn't say that, since this person clearly knew him.

"Such a talent as brave as you is one I will never forget..."

The steward was still pondering, trying to come up with a message to pray for his survival today. These lowly people were vicious and he had to find a way to live!

"Oh? If you really remember, you must remember the scar on my face, which was a gift from the butler, right?"

The butcher, impatient with the man's lies, laid it all out on the table.

The butler's eyes narrowed, and he finally remembered something. Instantly, he broke out in a cold sweat, and his hands and feet went weak.

"Ah! Good sir, spare my life! I have elderly parents and young children to support, and my whole family's lives are in the hands of this corrupt magistrate. I had no choice; those bad things were all ordered me to do by that corrupt official. Good sir, spare my life!"

"So noisy!"

The butcher slapped him across the face, too lazy to waste any more words. The slap was so powerful that it sent the 200-pound fat steward flying.

The onlookers had various expressions.

"Ah!" The butler's scream rang out, then stopped abruptly as he collapsed to the ground, motionless.

"The steward is busy and naturally doesn't remember killing my wife and daughter. It's alright, I'll take revenge myself."

"Big Brother is awesome!"

"Brother, you are incredibly powerful. This kind of villain should be chopped into pieces and fed to the dogs."

"Big Brother is awesome! Big Brother is awesome!"

A group of people cheered!

The butcher was flattered by everyone, and the exhilarating feeling of revenge flowed through his heart, while his bloodlust surged uncontrollably.

His bloodshot eyes stared intently at the butler's figure, and with a swift movement, the knife fell.

"Aaaaaaah!"

The steward had been cowering there pretending to be dead, but when he turned around, he was spotted by this group of lowly people. He was immediately pinned down, and before he could even react, his manhood was severed.

He writhed on the ground in agony like a maggot, but unfortunately, his body was too obese and even more ugly.

He howled wildly, but all around him was joyful laughter.

At that moment, he regretted it, deeply remorseful.

Why didn't he just kill all these lowly people back then?

Where are his family members?

"In the back."

"I want his women! The money is yours. After I'm done, we'll raid all the wealthy households in Qingshui County and show these gentlemen what we're made of!"

The butcher's words sealed the fate of the wealthy families in Qingshui County.

A group of men grinned lewdly and pushed several women inside. The women were terrified by the butler's miserable state and began to weep uncontrollably.

"Brother, you're quite the ladies' man. That bastard keeps a lot of women at home."

"Brothers, leave a place for your big brother to do his business, let's go have some fun somewhere else."

"Should we help our brother slaughter this pig?"

"Yes, yes, don't let your older brother get his hands dirty."

As the butcher watched the women being pushed over, his desire for revenge reached its peak.

——

The women's painful and helpless cries did not soften the butcher's heart; they only made him recall the scene before his wife and daughter died.

Now, it's simply a matter of tit for tat, blood for blood.

From the moment the butcher embarked on the path of breaking through the county government, there was no turning back.

Led by a butcher, a mob committed arson, murder, robbery, and all sorts of atrocities in Qingshui County.

Once they gained power, they became even more reckless than the wealthy.

The butcher, though strong, could not control the people whose hearts were consumed by money, women, and killing. Like a runaway colt, they charged headlong toward their deaths.

Those who slay dragons also become dragons themselves.

News of the events in Qingshui County quickly spread to the surrounding counties.

The county magistrates and wealthy households were terrified and quickly began to wonder if they had been exploiting the people.

Those who engaged in such conduct shall all be compensated.

People were either donating money or distributing porridge; no one wanted to be left behind.

The shock of "if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold" must have been accompanied by anger, but it could only be suppressed for the time being.

Naturally, the prefectural government could not allow this rabble to continue causing trouble. The prefect immediately sent an urgent message to the nearest standing army, requesting assistance.

The commander of the standing army of Daze Prefecture is the current empress's cousin. The empress's maternal family holds military power and was the empress's first wife, carefully chosen by the late emperor.

The Empress's maternal family was surnamed Ouyang. In addition to the Ouyang family, there were two other generals in the court who held military power.

The standing army garrison commander of Daze Prefecture was named Ouyang Cheng. He had practiced martial arts since childhood. His father was the Empress's uncle and held a high position in the Ouyang family.

Upon receiving the urgent message, Ouyang Cheng immediately beat the drum to order the army to assemble.

Ouyang Cheng personally led troops to pursue the rebels.

"My lads, your chance to make a name for yourselves has come! Follow me into battle!"

"Meritorious service! Meritorious service! Meritorious service!"

"Order troops!"

"yes!"
