Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 842: Chapter 841: Punishment

Wang Jianjun used to be very afraid of his wife because his father-in-law was very domineering, and he had always held a very low position in this family.

But now, he no longer cared about all that. Having had both hands chopped off, he had already despaired.

Upon hearing Li Ling’s roaring, he immediately shouted back, ”Li Ling, stop framing me and stop yelling at me, I’ve had enough of you. Tell me who caused the injuries on Auntie Li! Zhao Pingshun’s ribs were broken by high heels; did I do that? The bones on Auntie Li’s back, were they crushed by my high heels?”

Li Ling was at a loss for words, and then shouted angrily, ”Cut the crap. Wasn’t that all your doing? Besides, when I took people over, wasn’t it all for you? Are you even a man anymore? You don’t take any responsibility. I’ve done so much for you, and this is how you treat me...”

Wang Jianjun bellowed, ”Shut up, you whore. You were nothing but a tramp before marrying me, and now you’re pretending to be pure?”

”How can you talk like that!” On the other side, Elder Lin’s youngest son immediately flared up. Normally, Wang Jianjun would cower before them, never daring to raise his voice. Now he dared to yell like this, naturally it infuriated him.

”Wang Jianjun, how dare you speak to my sister like this!” The younger son bellowed furiously, ”Believe it or not, I’ll have someone kill you. You don’t even look at yourself in the mirror to see what you’re worth. It was your honor that my sister married you and you still dare to talk to my sister like this?”

The younger son, enraged, suddenly jumped up and rushed to beat Wang Jianjun.

Wang Jianjun was startled and backed away in panic. Just then, Zhao Ping’an suddenly intervened, grabbing the younger son by the neck and pinning him to the ground.

”What are you doing!” The younger son tried to resist.

”Shut up!” Big Brother Li urgently said, ”Young Master Zhao, I’m sorry, so sorry...”

Zhao Ping’an ignored him and said coldly, ”I was talking to the Wang-Li couple; who asked for your opinion? Stop interfering!”

With that, Zhao Ping’an stomped on the younger son’s mouth, causing him to bleed profusely and lose all his teeth, completely unable to speak anymore.

Only then did the younger son realize they were kneeling before Zhao Ping’an. Despite the extreme pain, he dared not make a sound, fearing it might further provoke Zhao Ping’an.

Big Brother Li, watching from the side, was heartbroken but dared not say anything, fearing that Zhao Ping’an might press harder, potentially killing his son right there.

Li Ling turned pale too; usually fearless, she had almost started to throw a tantrum while speaking. Only now did she remember her place and was immediately silenced.

But Wang Jianjun was delighted and said tremulously, ”Ping’an, Ping’an, this... this was all their doing. We’ve lived in the same village for so many years, don’t you know me? We may not have met often over the years, but... but we’re from the same village. I... I couldn’t possibly have attacked Auntie Li like that, it was all this... this bitch’s doing...”

Li Ling was furious, about to speak, but Zhao Ping’an cut her off, ”Regardless, you two were involved in the beatings, and you will be punished!”

Both their faces changed. What would Zhao Ping’an’s punishment be? Thinking about those prominent family members who had panicked before, what fate would he prepare for them?

”Wang Jianjun, you’ve already lost both hands; consider yourself lucky. Our debts are settled!” Zhao Ping’an said coldly.

Wang Jianjun knelt down gratefully, ”Thank you, thank you, thank you for the peace...”

But the people around were surprised. Such a punishment for Zhao Ping’an was too light, wasn’t it?

”As for you...” Zhao Ping’an looked at Li Ling. ”You stepped on my mother and my brother, so you must pay the price for this act. We will chop off both your legs, and then this matter will be settled!”

”What?” Li Ling panicked. ”No, I... I stepped on them, at most you could step back on me, why cut off my two legs...”

”Are you sure you want me to step back?” Zhao Ping’an asked in return.

Li Ling immediately fell silent. With Zhao Ping’an’s strength, one stomp could turn her into mush.

Zhao Ping’an turned to Big Brother Li and said coldly, ”Big Brother Li, a father’s failure is not teaching his children well. Since you did not discipline your daughter properly, you should be the one to do it. How about you personally chop off her legs?”

Big Brother Li turned pale. How could he possibly bring himself to do such a thing?

”Young Master Zhao, Master Su, we... we truly realize our faults. I... I kowtow to you, I beg you, spare us. We will repay you as oxen and horses in the future...” Big Brother Li said tremblingly.

”Big Brother Li, don’t forget, today was the day you lured us into this attic. We haven’t settled that account yet!” Zhao Ping’an said coldly. ”If you’re willing to do it yourself, then we can pretend this never happened, and you can leave directly. If you’re not willing, hmm, then don’t blame me for being rude!”

Big Brother Li’s face grew even more uncomfortable, and his whole body trembled. Looking at his daughter, he ultimately couldn’t bring himself to do it, continuing to kowtow and beg, ”Young Master Zhao, Master Su, we... we really know our mistake. Spare us, please spare us...”

”Big Brother Li, you really can’t bring yourself to do it?” Zhao Ping’an walked over to his elder son and seized the top of the elder son’s head.

Big Brother Li was nearly in tears. He looked at his son and then at his daughter, completely unable to make a decision. Suddenly, he started to sob uncontrollably, his voice trembling, ”Young Master Zhao, you... you kill me. This whole thing is my fault, all my fault. Kill me and spare them, spare them, how about that...”

Zhao Ping’an stared at Big Brother Li for a while, a faint smile crossing his lips, ”Not bad, Big Brother Li, you have indeed made me see you in a new light!”

Big Brother Li was stunned, what did that mean?

”Rest assured, I won’t kill you either,” Zhao Ping’an said coldly. ”But, today you deceived us, set a trap intending to kill us, that’s a fact. The death penalty can be forgiven, but the crime cannot be escaped. Everyone must leave behind one hand. As for your daughter, she must leave behind one leg!”

With those words, Zhao Ping’an didn’t bother negotiating further, simply waving his hand. The people from the Hu Family immediately rushed over and dragged these people away.

Those nearby exchanged glances; in fact, they were still puzzled. In their eyes, these few people were the ones who should have been killed. Why did Zhao Ping’an let them all go instead?

Su Yang was sitting in the background, having not intervened in the matter, yet there was a smile on his face. Because he knew very well what Zhao Ping’an intended to do!
