Two short swords were pointed at Xu Nian's back and chest respectively, about to pierce his skin.
The soldiers' mouths were practically stretched to the back of their heads in a wide grin.
He could already imagine how he would humiliate Xu Nian later!
But just as he felt victory was within his grasp, Xu Nian suddenly chuckled, his eyes gradually turning cold.
"Heh, I think he's asking for it—"
It must be you!
With a loud shout from Xu Nian, the two seemingly sturdy short swords shattered into pieces in an instant.
The powerful shockwave slammed into the soldiers, and an irresistible force sent them crashing to the ground, gushing bright red blood from their mouths.
"puff!"
Seeing their boss beaten up like this, the henchmen immediately realized that this seemingly weak woman was no pushover at all.
They looked around, intending to take the opportunity to escape.
But as soon as they stepped outside, they saw a group of villagers dressed in rags.
"Everyone, don't let them get away!"
It turned out that the noise Xu Nian had made had already alerted the other villagers, who were already furious about the soldiers' burning, killing, and looting, and had spontaneously surrounded them.
Seeing that the situation was hopeless, the officers and soldiers fled in all directions.
But the villagers, having suffered such severe oppression, saw them as their father's killers and were extremely ruthless in their attacks.
Xu Nian pretended not to see it and let them express their inner turmoil.
She walked step by step to the soldier whose face was full of pain, and kicked him.
"Bang!"
The officers and soldiers, who had been so arrogant just moments before, suddenly fell backward, stammering, "You, you're defying the imperial court..."
Before she could finish speaking, Xu Nian slapped him hard again, turning the soldier's face into a pig's head.
"The imperial court?"
Xu Nian laughed angrily, "The people in the court I know are all straightforward and compassionate, and what about you?"
"He's nothing but a selfish, opportunistic, and cowardly person who uses others' power for personal gain!"
The officer, clutching his stinging face, stubbornly retorted, "You're talking nonsense! I'm merely following orders. Are you going to disobey them?"
He had indeed come here on imperial orders to suppress the rebellious refugees, but upon encountering this village on the way, he immediately harbored evil intentions.
And Xu Nian happened to witness this scene.
Faced with such intimidation, most people would be terrified and run away in fear.
But Xu Nian, who was she? She merely smiled contemptuously, "If an imperial edict ordered you to die, would you die without hesitation?"
Upon hearing this, the officers and soldiers stammered, unable to speak, their eyes filled with ruthlessness.
Once he returns, he will definitely lead his army to kill this woman!
The hatred in his eyes was so obvious that Xu Nian immediately sensed the vengeful intent in them. She then took out a yellow talisman and slapped it on him.
The officers and soldiers were immediately terrified. They tried to call for help despite the pain, but found that they could not speak.
This bizarre scene filled him with dread and unease. He gestured with his arms as fear gradually spread through his heart.
Just who is this woman?
Is this the same trick we used to deal with the gossipy woman?
That's right, the art of making someone mute!
[What is the streamer trying to do? Is he trying to make him unable to speak for the rest of his life?]
“I have shut down all your senses, so you can’t feel anything right now.”
Seeing the panic in the soldiers' eyes, Xu Nian slowly and deliberately said, "Next, I will throw you into the deep mountains and coat you with the scents that wild animals love..."
Before she could finish speaking, the soldiers began to struggle desperately, drenched in sweat.
His body instinctively felt fear and tried desperately to escape, but to no avail.
That chilling feeling spread throughout my body...
Xu Nian did indeed do as she said.
The officers and soldiers were utterly wicked. Seeing their actions, they must have ruined many people's lives in the past. It was only right that they received such retribution!
[The streamer is so cruel, I've unfollowed them.]
[Is the person upstairs some kind of saint? Didn't you see the soldiers were about to force themselves on that lady? You can't believe you feel sorry for such wicked people? I'm disgusted.]
[That's right. The streamer never wrongly accuses anyone. Looking at it now, every time you've seen the streamer get angry, it's because they were forced into a corner.]
Xu Nian's actions caused a huge uproar in the live broadcast room, with some people thinking it was excessive and others thinking it was harmless.
However, Xu Nian didn't care about their opinions at all.
She will make the soldiers pay for this in blood!
"Send some men to throw him into the deep forest!"
Xu Nian finished casting all the spells and called out towards the door.
Suddenly, several burly men burst in, their eyes eager. "Miss, let us help you!"
They were all villagers who had suffered greatly at the hands of the soldiers last night. Some of them were still injured, but they persevered.
Xu Nian glanced at it briefly and found no fatal wounds, so she nodded in agreement.
Then, she looked at Mengmeng, who was looking at her with admiration, and smiled faintly.
Are you alright?
Mengmeng shook her head vigorously, her eyes shining brightly, "Mengmeng is okay, big sister, you're so amazing!"
Xu Nian smiled without saying a word, while Chen Yang clasped his hands in gratitude, "My benefactor, I owe you so much this time. Otherwise, I wouldn't know what to do. This is such a great favor..."
Seeing that Chen Yang was about to launch into a long speech, Xu Nian quickly raised her hand to interrupt, "It's alright. I just noticed that your wife has some injuries. Why don't I treat her?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yang's eyes lit up with excitement. "My benefactor also knows medicine! That's wonderful!"
Xu Nian walked to Madam Chen's side and raised her hand to take her pulse.
"Fortunately, apart from some minor injuries, I was just frightened."
Opening her eyes, Xu Nian quickly retrieved a bottle of medicine for sprains and bruises from her spatial storage and handed it to Chen Yang.
"This medicine must be taken daily, three times a day, and it will be cured in a few days."
Hearing Xu Nian's instructions, Chen Yang nodded hurriedly and got up to apply medicine to Madam Chen.
Xu Nian withdrew her gaze and suddenly felt several burning eyes behind her.
She turned around and met the eager yet timid eyes of many people.
They smiled gently at Xu Nian, but the hope in their eyes was almost palpable.
Xu Nian immediately understood.
The soldiers' wanton burning and killing last night must have injured many people, otherwise Mengmeng would never have been covered in blood.
Seeing their eager gazes, Xu Nian sighed almost imperceptibly.
Anyway, simple medical skills don't consume much magic power, so let's just consider it as her accumulating good karma.
“Those who are injured outside, line up according to the severity of your injuries, and I will treat you.”
Xu Nian cleared her throat and spoke to the person outside the door.
Upon hearing this, everyone cheered with delight and obediently began to line up.
Xu Nian moved a stool into the room and sat down, about to say something, when a hurried and shrill female voice suddenly rang out.
"My benefactor, please save my man!"
