Chapter 858: Chapter 860: Stop If You Don’t Want to Die
But faced with Yang Ming’s warning, the man completely ignored him. After sizing up Yang Ming, he shook his head and pouted, showing an expression that claimed Yang Ming could never match Xiaoxiao.
He then flashed a roguish smile, looked at Xiaoxiao, and continued to tease, "Beauty, why don’t you come with me? I guarantee you’ll live in the lap of luxury."
Hearing this, Yang Ming threw a punch. How could he tolerate someone flirting with his wife?
But the man dodged Yang Ming’s attack with ease, leaving Yang Ming astonished. The man gave Yang Ming a disdainful look and said, "Wow, why are you so worked up? I haven’t even done anything yet."
He then winked at Xiaoxiao, "Right, beauty?"
"You..." Yang Ming was absolutely infuriated by this inexplicable man in front of him; he was just asking for a beating.
As Yang Ming stepped forward, intent on dealing with the man, he heard the Village Chief’s angry roar, "What are you standing there for? Capture them all and burn them immediately."
Hearing they would be burned, Xiaoxiao quickly grabbed Yang Ming, hinting for him not to bother with this inexplicable man. If they started a fight, ignoring the Village Chief, they would only hasten their cremation. The Village Chief was already visibly enraged.
Seeing this, Yang Ming had no choice but to relent. The villagers, following the chief’s orders, surrounded them, looking fierce and intent on dragging them to the pyre.
The chatty man started babbling again, "Wow, you really want to burn me? So, my words have been wasted. You all think I’m just talking nonsense."
"..." Xiaoxiao was speechless at this stranger. She had no idea where he got his confidence from.
She didn’t have time to deal with this inexplicable man; her priority was to keep her family of three safe. So she shouted, "Everyone, stop, listen to me."
"There’s nothing to discuss. Burn them immediately, and everyone will be cured of the strange illness."
"Exactly, what’s there to talk about? We’ve already wasted days. The sooner we burn them, the sooner we’ll be healed."
"No point in arguing with them, let’s all go together."
"..."
"..."
The villagers moved towards them, and Yang Ming wasn’t about to let his family be captured without a fight, launching another round of resistance.
The strange man resisted as well, shouting while doing so, "Wow, you’ll regret this. Soon my men will storm this village."
Though he was loud-mouthed, he was the first to be captured, yet he kept taunting, "Just wait until my men arrive; you’re all dead meat..."
"..." Xiaoxiao frowned. Does this guy really have subordinates?
The scene was chaotic, and the child was crying loudly out of fear. Xiaoxiao was utterly furious, facing a bunch of unreasonable barbarians. Outnumbered and unable to flee, they had no choice but to muster the courage and try to reason with them one last time.
So she shouted towards the crowd, "Stop, everyone listen to me."
But no one paid attention to Xiaoxiao’s cries, making her almost vomit blood out of anger. She shouted again, "If you don’t want to die, stop immediately. I can cure everyone’s illness."
