The sharp dagger pierced through Long San's entire palm, skin and bone.
Blood was everywhere.
"Ah!" The intense pain and extreme exhaustion made Long San's voice hoarse, his eyes bulging out in a ferocious manner, bloodshot.
But that wasn't the scariest part. What was truly terrifying was the man's horrifying gaze.
Yi Chenli pulled the dagger out of the flesh, and then, one by one, sliced off Long San's fingers.
"1, 2, 3..."
The thin lips uttered numbers, their chilling aura causing the surrounding temperature to drop several degrees, until it reached freezing point.
His movements were clean and efficient, and his demeanor was calm, as if the hands in front of him were not human hands, but merely toys for him to vent his frustrations on.
Overwhelming fear spread throughout Long San's body. Besides the pain, the greatest fear was the panic in his heart.
That was an endless hell, more terrifying than death itself.
Long San trembled uncontrollably: "You...you did it all for that woman too."
Today, Long San was overcome by lust and offended the girl who unexpectedly appeared at the camp.
He only touched the girl's hand; he didn't gain anything else.
He thought that 100 strokes of the cane was the limit, but little did he know that 100 strokes were just the beginning, and something even more terrifying was yet to come.
Soon, all ten fingers were severed and rolled on the ground, where they were mercilessly eaten by the dog that had been brought in.
"That woman? You dare to talk about her?" Yi Chenli's anger showed no sign of abating despite Long San's desperate pleas for mercy.
He couldn't forgive himself whenever he thought about how the girl had almost been taken advantage of by such a man.
"Long San deserves to die. Ten dog lives wouldn't be enough to pay for it. That was his precious treasure, whom he cherished and pampered. How could this guy treat her like this?"
An Chaoli was a gentleman after all; the heaviest punishment he could get was a beating, and he did not want to take anyone's life.
But Yi Chenli was never a gentleman; he was vindictive and vengeful, and death was the least of his worries if he displeased someone.
Clearly, even in his despair, Ryuzo realized this.
Lord Liu couldn't protect him; the man in front of him was a madman who wouldn't care about such social niceties.
What Long San didn't expect was that this cold and aloof sixth prince actually liked Lord An's daughter.
It seems the rumors are unreliable. The rumor that Miss An lost contact with the Sixth Prince after returning home from accompanying him to school is not true.
Unfortunately, Long San found out too late. If he had known, he would have run far away from An Yuan'er even if he had a hundred times the courage, and he wouldn't have encountered this disaster today.
Severely injured and with his hands crippled, all that remained of him was suffering. With his last ounce of strength, Long San slammed his head against the wall.
Can......
He couldn't even die at this moment. The man in black threw him to the ground again, saying in an unfriendly tone, "Behave yourself. Your master hasn't allowed you to die like this."
The third brother asked, "Master, this man has offended Miss An. Should we castrate him, then beat him to death and take him to the mass grave?"
The fourth brother said, "Tearing someone apart by five horses is also an option."
The fifth brother said, "Being torn to pieces wouldn't be bad either."
"......"
Long San trembled, tears and blood mingling and flowing all over the ground.
What's more terrifying than death is having someone, while you're still alive, recklessly discuss how to deal with you.
Unable to live, unable to die.
Yi Chenli sneered: "You? That's all you can think of?"
