Upon seeing this, the other man was so frightened that his short sword fell to the ground with a thud. Both men stood there, trembling, speechless, completely dumbfounded.
The crying and fighting inside the house intensified. Yun Zhe glanced at the house, and the next second, he ran behind the person and repeated the same action.
Yun Zhe kicked open the door and saw that the fat man had already pinned the girl down on the bed and was impatiently taking off his pants.
The girl saw Yun Zhe, screamed, and fainted.
The fat man also sensed something was wrong and turned around to see Yun Zhe carrying a wooden basket in one hand and gripping the hilt of a short sword in the other. That wasn't a big deal, but his mouth was full of blood, half of his body was stained red with blood, and his entire demeanor was completely different from his timid appearance just now, filled with violence and murderous intent.
The fat man was familiar with this feeling; it was just like this when his brother wanted to kill a servant.
The fat man hurriedly rolled off the bed. He knew without asking what would become of his two henchmen. He hastily pulled a strip of cloth from his pocket, unfolded it, and placed it over his head. The cloth was printed with intricate patterns and embroidered with two letters in gold thread: D'A'
"I am...I am the second son of Earl Donic and Baron Paz, you...you cannot kill me..."
Seeing the fat man's cowardly appearance, so different from before, Yun Zhe couldn't help but feel a sense of amusement.
"Count Donic, is he very impressive?"
The fat man shuddered. He was also a spoiled brat, but in the Western Continent, he was often forced to compare his connections with others. He was very familiar with this phrase; it was a classic line he used when someone's connections were weaker than his own.
He racked his brains, trying to think of any other noble or high-ranking official more powerful than Earl Donic of this land. None! But the emperor had two dukes by his side, yet their fiefdoms were miles away. Was he trying to trick him?
He had intended to stand up straight and rebuke his ignorance, but upon looking up and seeing the blood-stained clothes, he replied very softly, "Here, Earl Donic is the god..."
Yun Zhe's mind raced. His world had also gone through a similar historical period. Dukes, marquises, earls, viscounts, and barons were all titles of nobility in feudal societies, both in the East and the West. However, in the East, these titles were largely honorary, while in the West they were real positions with land and autonomy.
Seeing the fat man's honesty, Yun Zhe naturally couldn't let such a good opportunity pass him by. He pulled over a chair, sat down, drew his short sword and rhythmically struck it in his hand, then continued to ask the fat man some questions he was concerned about.
The girl in bed slowly woke up. She had experienced a nightmare today, and her mind was still in a state of confusion.
He turned his head and saw an Aruru sitting in a chair, a short sword stuck in the ground beside him, holding several gold coins in his hand and showing them off to the fat man opposite him—Wood, the second son of the Pas family.
What happened?!
The girl took a few deep breaths to calm herself down. As her memory slowly returned, she couldn't help but breathe rapidly again.
She wanted to see if her father and mother had woken up; they had been knocked to the ground by those wicked servants without even a chance to fight back.
The Aruruman stood up, his body and mouth covered in a gruesome sight. He approached Wood with a smile, causing her to back away in fright. Then she heard the Aruruman's voice.
What are you doing here?
"I...I'm here to exercise my right to the first night..."
Yun Zhe frowned; this answer surprised him somewhat. Although he disliked the term "right of the first night," he knew that such a seemingly reasonable rule existed in this feudal society.
Seeing the change in Yun Zhe's expression, Wood seemed to have regained some of the initiative. "This territory is all mine, and I have the right to exercise my power..."
"Liar! The right of first night can only be used on the wedding day, and I'm not married. Besides, I've never heard of such a thing as the right of first night in this land!" The girl thought angrily upon hearing Wood's words.
Yun Zhe looked down at the bed and saw the girl's angry eyes. The girl realized Yun Zhe was looking at her, and her eyes immediately filled with fear.
"You're lying. There's no such thing as the right of first night in this land. Even if there were, it could only be used on the wedding day."
Yun Zhe's voice wasn't loud, but each word struck Wood's heart, making Wood tremble.
The girl opened her mouth in surprise. Could he hear what I was thinking?
"Oh no, oh no, this bastard is actually a worldly bastard..." Wood was filled with despair. Today, he heard about the right of first night from his brother; apparently, the girls in the territory had to give their first time to the lord. Wood, who had just turned sixteen, was extremely excited upon hearing this news. He had always coveted the pretty girls in his village and had planned to use this as an excuse to sleep with them all. But the first one he encountered was Yun Zhe, that obstacle.
Yun Zhe's aura suddenly changed, filled with murderous intent, and he stared at Wood, coldly saying:
"A worldly bastard?"
Wood was so frightened that he curled up into a ball.
"I can't kill...I can't kill...I can't kill!" Yun Zhe finally managed to control his surging killing intent. But how should he deal with the fat man in front of him?
