Three burly n with big beards, wielding knives and looking fierce and sinister, blocked the road with an air as if intending to rob and kill.
But just as they finished speaking to Jun Ning’s carriage, the Eldest Prince, who had returned out of nowhere, slit their throats.
A swift kill with a single stroke, leaving no rcy.
The three strong n, blood covering their necks, died with their eyes wide open like hanged ghosts, as if they couldn’t rest in peace.
A chilling sight to behold.
Despite being accustod to such scenes in her past life as an assassin, in this life, having lived a long ti in a wealthy and safe nest, not having killed soone or seen blood for ages, Jun Ning felt slightly unable to handle the sight and vaguely nauseous.
She murmured to herself, "That Eldest Prince, if he wants to kill, just kill. Why make it so disgusting!"
Truly disgusting!
Jun Ning glanced once and quickly withdrew her gaze, letting down the curtain.
Ye Ying noticed her unusual expression and asked with concern, "Pavilion Master, what did you see?"
"When outside, don’t call Pavilion Master, just call Ah Ning!" Jun Ning replied.
Ye Ying, sowhat uncomfortable with this address for Jun Ning, eventually called out, "...Ah Ning!"
"Mm!" Jun Ning nodded and said, "There were three road blockers outside, but my eldest brother killed them. The scene was a bit brutal. It’s better you don’t see it! Let’s continue on our way!"
"Oh..." Ye Ying, with so curiosity, asked, "Was it really that brutal?"
"Not only brutal but also disgusting!" Jun Ning painfully held her forehead, not wanting to recall that scene.
Seeing this, Ye Ying handed so water to Jun Ning, saying, "Ah Ning, stop thinking about it, have a drink of water!"
"Mm, mm!" Jun Ning took the water and drank two sips, finally getting rid of the nausea.
However, before she could fully escape that disgusting scene, the Eldest Prince ca to cause her trouble again.
"You brat, I helped kill those blocking your way. If you don’t thank , fine, but shouldn’t you at least take care of these bodies?" the Eldest Prince said arrogantly.
Jun Ning felt sick at heart and didn’t want to handle it.
The Eldest Prince then threatened, "If you don’t take care, be careful the authorities trace it back to you, and then you can enjoy jail ti."
"Ha ha..." Jun Ning laughed and said, "Brother, are you ntally challenged? You kill, and I go to jail? How do you reason that? If you’re unwell, take dicine and stop speaking nonsense to embarrass yourself."
She didn’t want a ntally challenged brother.
"You dare call unwell..." the Eldest Prince, enraged, rushed into Jun Ning’s carriage, forcibly dragging her out despite Ye Ying’s interference and pushing her onto the blood-soaked, disgustingly ssy corpses he had slain.
Jun Ning lacked the strength to resist. Despite the Eldest Prince wanting to tornt her, she couldn’t break free.
Her small body was caught off guard and pressed onto the corpses, her hands touched one man’s neck, becoming sared with blood, and her dress got dirty.
With sticky palms and her previously clean, tender self now filthy, she looked sowhat miserable.
This scene happened too quickly. By the ti Ye Ying chased out, it was too late to stop, as the damage was already done.
Seeing the blood on Jun Ning, Ye Ying felt sick and wanted to vomit.
He hurried forward to help Jun Ning up, covering her eyes to prevent her from seeing the revolting corpses, pulling her into his embrace, gently patting her back, and comforting her softly, "Ah Ning, don’t be scared. I’m here with you!"
Jun Ning wasn’t exactly scared, just sickened.
The thick bloody sll at her nose and the brutal sight of half-severed necks were too overwhelming for her to handle—she felt an urge to vomit!
Ye Ying led her to a place devoid of the three corpses, where she vomited.
After vomiting, Jun Ning felt sowhat better, except her clothes were covered in blood and utterly unwearable!
Jun Ning wanted to find a place to wash up and change into clean clothes. But they were in the wild, with no inns or rest stops, making it impossible to wash.
Looking at Jun Ning in this state, Ye Ying felt filled with anger, wanting to beat up the Eldest Prince for vengeance.
But considering Jun Ning’s wish to clean herself up, he controlled his urge and glanced around, saying, "Ah Ning, wait in the carriage for a bit while I go look to see if there’s a nearby river or stream."
"Okay!" Jun Ning agreed.
"I’ll be back soon. Stay quiet and don’t quarrel with your brother; you can’t win against him." Ye Ying urged with concern, "Revenge is best served cold—no hurry."
Jun Ning nodded, "Mm! Go quickly!"
But once Ye Ying left, Jun Ning rushed to the Eldest Prince, gave him a hard shove, and cursed in a tone of exasperated defiance, "Jun Wu, you bastard, I’m fighting you!"
Her shove took the Eldest Prince by surprise, toppling him to the ground. Not only was his back covered in dirt, but also a good amount of blood from Jun Ning’s hands and body stained him.
Jun Ning even climbed onto the Eldest Prince, saring his face with her bloody hands. Shortly, his face was full of blood, looking entirely red and a bit frightening.
The Eldest Prince, infuriated, realizing what Jun Ning was doing, pushed her away and grabbed dirt and grass, furiously scrubbing it into her hair.
Jun Ning’s face and head were covered in filth, making her look like a little beggar.
Jun Ning, unable to swallow her anger, tried to retaliate, but her strength was no match for the Eldest Prince, and each ti she attempted, she’d be pinned down and thoroughly ssed up.
Her hair was a bird’s nest, her fair cheeks unrecognizable, with only her eyes still active and a bit aggrieved. Her clothes’ original color was unrecognizable, covered in dirt.
The Eldest Prince pinned Jun Ning, questioning, "Dare to retaliate again?"
Jun Ning’s eyes, wide like saucers, glared at the Eldest Prince, wishing to make him drop dead.
The Eldest Prince patted Jun Ning’s face and said, "You’d better speak nicely, make happy, or else, beware my unkindness."
The Eldest Prince let out an evil laugh, "My ways of tornt aren’t limited to this; what you can’t imagine, I can accomplish."
"...What... what do you want?" Jun Ning eyed the Eldest Prince warily.
