Shen Miao's current superpowers are definitely not enough to defeat a few people, but she has a little housekeeper.
The little steward was furious when it saw those orcs swaggering around, so when Shen Miao asked it for help, it immediately agreed and rubbed its hands together, ready to make a big splash.
"I hate people who betray me the most," these were the housekeeper's exact words.
What everyone saw was that several young orcs attacked together, but before long, they were utterly defeated by Shen Miao and lay on the ground howling in pain.
Shen Miao showed no mercy, directly drawing her God-Slaying Whip and lashing them dozens of times.
The orcs present seemed to see the same method Shen Miao used to capture the skeleton leader when the skeleton soldiers surrounded the tribe.
The last leader was beaten to death.
The orcs who did not participate in the battle were also frightened by Shen Miao's ruthless methods. Their previous restless thoughts vanished in an instant, and they wished they could tear out their hearts to prove their loyalty.
The young orc was a bloody mess, delirious. In his daze, he saw Shen Miao standing high in front of him, her eyes looking down at him like a god looking down on a tiny orc.
How did he even find the courage to challenge this person's authority? The young orc wondered, still confused.
Shen Miao didn't beat the person to death; she left them with a breath, but they looked half-dead.
Shen Miao didn't glance at them twice, but turned to the tribal beastmen who had come with her and ordered, "Now take these people and leave the beast realm immediately."
The orcs were dumbfounded. In fact, only a third of them harbored ulterior motives; the rest were still law-abiding.
However, they came together, and if Shen Miao wanted to establish her authority, she had to drive them all away.
The old orcs were getting on in years and just wanted to find a peaceful place to spend their twilight years in peace. However, the young orcs were disobedient, so they could only keep apologizing to Shen Miao and saying nice things to her.
Shen Miao remained unmoved throughout.
In the end, even the cat-beastman wavered and whispered to her, "Why don't you stay? I think these old beastmen are quite docile."
If only the old orcs are left, then more than half of the young orcs will have to leave, which is not Shen Miao's goal.
She raised her chin and said, "Do you really want to stay?"
"Yes, yes, we really want to stay. We promise to be obedient from now on and never make a mistake again!" the tribe beastmen said in unison.
Shen Miao lowered her eyes, as if deep in thought.
The tribal beastmen were very nervous, clenching their fingers, afraid that Shen Miao would refuse and drive them out.
A moment later, Shen Miao raised her head, her snow-white face still expressionless, her voice cold: "I no longer trust you, but I'm still willing to give you a chance."
Upon hearing the first sentence, the orcs' hearts sank, but upon hearing the second sentence, they were overjoyed.
In short, his heart was in turmoil, completely under Shen Miao's control.
Shen Miao raised the corners of her mouth, a smile that made one feel as if they had seen a mountain spirit. She said, word by word, "Given that you provoked me first, I need to establish some rules."
Everyone held their breath.
"First, those who betray the Beast Domain will be killed on sight. Second, those who are disobedient and repeatedly refuse to change their ways will be whipped fifty times and hung in the square as a warning. Third, those who form cliques will have their legs broken and be expelled from the Beast Domain."
Some of these rules are too strict.
After Shen Miao finished speaking, everyone fell silent for a long time.
Shen Miao didn't care. This was exactly the effect she wanted. As long as she could intimidate these unruly orcs in one go, things would be much easier afterward.
The saying "kill one to warn a hundred, kill the chicken to warn the monkey" means the same thing.
She glanced at the crowd and said, "If you have any objections, you can leave now. I promise you won't be held responsible."
The group looked at each other, but no one moved.
Shen Miao waved her hand and said, "That's settled then. Everyone disperse and do your own thing. Don't crowd around here."
Everyone scattered in a panic.
Only a few blood gourds were still lying on the ground. Their family members trembled as they came to ask Shen Miao for instructions. The latter calmly said, "Take them away and find Veterinarian Lin to take a look."
The families of the individuals were extremely grateful and quickly took them away. They also went to fetch veterinarian Lin to help treat them.
Even if they are healed, these young orcs are severely weakened and will likely need a long time to recover.
The family members dared not complain, only blaming themselves for not being obedient. Even if they had grievances against Shen Miao, they dared not utter a word now.
Shen Miao's attempt to establish her authority this time was remarkably effective.
On her way back, she could tell that the orcs no longer dared to approach her. They would run away as soon as they saw her from a distance, and those who couldn't run away would secretly watch her.
Shen Miao didn't take it to heart; the path of a king is inherently lonely.
She only needs others to submit to her; she doesn't need any fake friendship.
Thinking of this, she was suddenly startled. When did her heart become so hard? She used to feel sad when she saw the orcs in trouble.
Is it because he has killed too many people and witnessed too much death?
Shen Miao fell into deep thought.
Before going home, Shen Miao went to the stream to wash herself thoroughly, making sure there was no blood on her body, before heading home.
What she didn't know was that Qingchen and the other children had actually seen everything from beginning to end, and they only left at the very last moment, so Shen Miao's cover-up was completely unnecessary.
Shen Miao greeted the children casually, but when the four little ones saw her, they suddenly turned around and ran into the house, closing the door and refusing to come out.
Everyone was stunned.
Shen Miao asked, "What's wrong with Si Bao?"
This little guy is usually very attached to her, but today she looked at her as if she were looking at something terrifying, her little eyes full of panic and fear.
The children hesitated, wanting to speak but holding back. Shen Miao looked at Qing Chen, whose expression remained unchanged, but he also refused to say anything.
"What's wrong?" Shen Miao sensed something was wrong, went over and knocked on Xiao Sibao's door, coaxing him to open it.
There was no movement inside.
Da Bao came over and said hesitantly, "Mother, Si Bao is frightened."
Shen Miao raised an eyebrow. "What's wrong? Who scared her?"
"Today, we went to see you teach those disobedient orcs a lesson." Da Bao looked up at Chen Miao, his eyes not showing much fear, but rather sparkling with excitement.
Shen Miao: "..."
So that's how it is. Little Sibao is the most timid and soft-hearted. No wonder he was afraid when he saw her.
She sighed silently and said, "This was my oversight. I didn't know you were watching nearby, otherwise..."
Otherwise, she would choose another time to teach those disobedient orcs a lesson.
Erbao said dismissively, "Mother should have taught them a good lesson. Today was so much fun! You have to be ruthless when dealing with those people!"
