Quick Wear: Waiting for an Opportunity

Chapter 1493 The Exploiter of the Great Demon (16)

A powerful aura pressed down on him, causing him to tremble instantly. A surge of uncontrollable force broke through his psychological defenses.

For a few moments, his gaze wandered, stealthily glancing at the woman beside the head of the family. The first time, he was probably frightened, but the next few times, not so easily, were quite suspicious.

The head of the Mountain Ghost family glanced slightly at the person beside him. His rationality and wiseness lay in his feelings. The cousin's love for him was a deep emotion. He was not unaware of the internal strife within the family, but his possessiveness as a man compelled him to use the existence and emotions of one woman to stimulate and manipulate the heart of another.

She found proof in another person that she loved him deeply and was in a desperate situation where she couldn't live without him.

Similarly, human emotions are reciprocal; it's not hard to guarantee that one woman might also be quick to ruthlessly harm another.

He spoke softly in a cold voice.

The Great Demon: "Guards! If he won't speak, pry his mouth open and make him describe exactly what happened."

Servant: "Yes, Master!"

The servant nodded slightly, bowed respectfully, and walked over to the servant. He squatted down and began to speak, offering his instructions.

Servant: "Boy, you're lucky! You're being personally attended to by our master!"

Servant: "I'm asking you one last time, are you going to tell me or not? I'm going to do it now!"

The sinner looked terrified, his body slipping and struggling slightly on the ground. At this moment, he still harbored a glimmer of hope.

His lips twitched slightly; he was probably too frightened to speak!

However, even if they were frightened, they still need to be properly informed, right?

The servant swiftly drew a short knife from his waist with a "whoosh," the blade gleaming with a blinding starlight. He gave a sinister, disdainful smile.

With such speed and decisiveness, he raised the knife high and brought it down, the short knife piercing the man's ankle, causing him to scream in pain.

Passerby: "Ah..."

A pig-like scream erupted, and this brutal and bloody scene caused Madam Hua to turn pale and instantly stagger backward, her back slamming against the desk behind her.

Her startled expression made her immediately cover her face with her hands and hide. At such a critical moment, perhaps it was her delicate, gentle, fearful, weak, and vulnerable nature that could most easily arouse a man's protective instincts towards a woman.

However, feeling guilty, she didn't fully consider this aspect. Instead, she tried her best to suppress her inner secrets and not make a sound to attract the sharp gaze of the head of the household.

The servant spoke in a strained, cold voice.

Servant: "To speak, or not to speak?"

Servant: "Miss, where exactly are you, hmm?"

The guy's face was contorted in pain, and he was basically unable to speak.

However, the servant ignored him and directly turned the knife in his hand. The man gasped for breath in pain and began to beg for mercy in a trembling voice.

Passerby: "Ah..."

Passerby: "Tell me, tell me..."

Passerby: "I said..."

Passerby: "Say..."

Passerby: "Uh-huh..."

He was in so much pain that he was trembling and didn't know how to express it.
