Butcher Zhou knelt on the ground, clutching his groin, his teeth clenched in fury, and his eyes instantly turned bloodshot.
Su Ruanruan wasn't idle either, her eyes scanning the surroundings.
He spotted the knives on the butcher's block at a glance and quickly locked onto two knives that caught his eye.
In a short while, Su Ruanruan had already grabbed a knife and stabbed it into Zhou the Butcher's chest.
Butcher Zhou was no pushover either; he grabbed Su Ruanruan's wrist, which was holding the knife, and changed the direction of the blade.
Su Ruanruan tried to pull her right hand, which was holding the knife, but he gripped it even tighter.
Zhou the Butcher pushed off the ground and stood up, his eyes flashing with intense killing intent.
The two were vastly different in strength. Zhou the Butcher held Su Ruanruan's hand and pointed the gleaming blade at her heart.
He pressed closer and closer, trapping Su Ruanruan against the cold wall.
Su Ruanruan had nowhere to retreat with her back against the wall, and a knife was pressed against her chest.
Su Ruanruan tightened her grip on her other hand hidden in her sleeve.
"No...don't do this. Murder is punishable by death."
"Whatever you want, I'll give it to you."
As the knife tip was pushed towards her, Su Ruanruan said in a trembling voice.
"I'll stab you in the back first, then I'll play with you slowly."
"Anyway, you're still warm for the time being..."
Su Ruanruan's first reaction was that this guy was going to commit necrophilia!
abnormal!
Su Ruanruan's gaze fell on his wrist.
"You wretch, prepare to die!" Butcher Zhou glared angrily.
"Fuck you!"
With a slight movement of her other hand, Su Ruanruan pulled out a small knife from her sleeve.
In a flash, she twisted her wrist and severed his tendons.
"ah……"
The wicked hand that had been wrapped around Su Ruanruan's hand suddenly released its grip.
Her eyes suddenly sharpened, like a bloodthirsty beast in the night.
He raised his hand in an instant, a flash of starlight appeared, and a cold glint disappeared before Butcher Zhou's eyes.
"Ah... my eyes."
Taking advantage of his pain, Su Ruanruan gave him no chance to catch his breath and kicked him hard in the knees twice, causing Zhou the Butcher to fall to the ground.
In one swift motion, he severed all the tendons in his hands and feet.
Looking at Butcher Zhou lying on the ground like a lump of mud, Su Ruanruan curled her lips.
She tilted her head to look at the bloody wound on her shoulder, then looked down at her disheveled clothes.
"Pah, I almost got taken advantage of by you, you pig!" Su Ruanruan said coldly.
"You wretch! You've broken my arms and legs, and ruined my eyes! If you have the guts, kill me! Otherwise, I will never let you go, nor will I let that pretty boy in the academy get away with it!"
Su Ruanruan looked around the room, which reeked of blood.
This must be where Butcher Zhou slaughtered pigs; there's thick blood everywhere.
In one corner of the room stood a water vat. Su Ruanruan picked up a ladle and scooped some water onto her injured shoulder.
Then he smiled and chose a suitable knife from the butcher's block.
"Just for those words, I won't let you live. You want to die, then I'll grant your wish! I originally planned to find a way to get rid of you on her birthday and give her a big gift. But you're tired of living and insisted on provoking me, so there's nothing I can do."
"Her, what about her?"
Su Ruanruan squinted and squatted down in front of Butcher Zhou. "Considering you are a dying man, I might as well take pity on you and tell you a secret."
“I am Su Ruanruan, but not the Su Ruanruan you know. That poor girl committed suicide by hitting her head against a tree a few months ago because she couldn't bear your humiliation. You should remember her! You deserve to die!”
"!!"
Zhou the butcher was startled. Before he could figure out what was going on, Su Ruanruan kicked him in the chest and then stabbed him with her knife.
"She's waiting for you on the road to the underworld. Go and repent to her."
Su Ruanruan walked out of the house and looked up at the sky.
"Su Ruanruan, you've taken your revenge. You can reincarnate in peace now!"
As if a force had suddenly been released from her body, Su Ruanruan collapsed to the ground, utterly exhausted. She watched helplessly as a wisp of ethereal green smoke vanished before her eyes.
Su Ruanruan knew that if it weren't for the original owner's resentment that gave her power, she would probably be the one who died just now.
After all that trouble, it must be past midnight by now.
"Tsk..."
Su Ruanruan slapped her forehead, somewhat regretting ending his life with a single blow; she should have waited a few more hours.
This is troublesome; we also need to figure out how to clean up the mess.
She got up from the ground and, with exhausted steps, went to the neighbor's yard. Just as she was about to go inside to look for any medicine, she vaguely heard a faint sound coming from outside the door.
Su Ruanruan tiptoed closer to the door.
A faint, almost imperceptible barking came from outside; the sound was very soft and faint.
The voice vaguely resembled Bai Ruan's.
Su Ruanruan pressed her ear against the door again, listening intently. Then she heard a woman's voice, barely audible: "Little one, are you sure your master is here? Don't be mistaken. It's not that I don't trust you, it's just that you're still young, your sense of smell..."
Before she could finish speaking, the courtyard gate was opened from the inside.
Ziwu was startled when she saw the person sticking half their body out.
Su Ruanruan gestured for her to be quiet.
"You've come at the right time, so I don't have to make another trip. Go back and find the workers to bring the ice from the cellar. Remember, be careful on the way and don't let anyone see you."
"Master, what's wrong with you?"
"I can't explain it in a short time. Time is of the essence. By the time you make it back, it will be almost dawn. Hurry up and go. Be careful of your surroundings on your way back."
"Yes, I understand."
