Transmigrated as the Villainess, Troubled by the Cuteness!-Chapter 206 - 166: Killing Is Nothing More Than Bowing to the Ground

Just because he was one of Prince Bai Luo’s lackeys, loud-voiced, with plenty of flesh, and nearly all of his daughters were sent to Prince Bai Luo as concubines, Prince Bai Luo provided him with direct protection and privileges.

Yet, even such a figure representing the face of Prince Bai Luo met a sudden death.

No matter how glorious one was in life, now he could only lie quietly on the ground, not even having a complete body. His head rolling aside seemed quite comical.

Wen Ranchen stood holding a sword, his body unstained by a single drop of blood, still bearing that appearance of an Immortal. If it weren’t for the visible blood on the blade, who would believe that it was the gentle and refined noble scion Wen Ranchen who killed the favored one by Prince Bai Luo’s side?

"You, how dare you kill an official without an edict!!"

The speaker was the City Guard Captain, also quite corpulent. It seemed being overweight was a mark of Prince Bai Luo’s trusted aides.

Upon seeing his subordinate killed, he immediately spoke up in accusation.

Wen Ranchen twirled his sword in the air, took two steps forward to the City Guard Captain, and swiftly swung his blade down, so fast!

Another head fell to the ground.

Following the trajectory of the previous head, it rolled along the path before coming to rest face to face with the first head.

After the man died, Wen Ranchen leisurely accepted a handkerchief handed over by a subordinate, slowly wiping the blood off his sword, "Why would I not dare? Killing corrupt officials who oppress the people, is it necessary to choose an auspicious day? Coming here, this General has already put aside life and death. Yan Gui City is not only your home but also the territory of Yunyi Country. Killing a few parasites can make the lives of Yan Gui City’s citizens better. This General thinks it’s worth it. This is our mission here! The citizens of Yan Gui City, under the crown, will be protected by this General!"

Wen Ranchen’s subordinates all looked at him with admiration. Although it wasn’t the first time they heard the General say such things, they still thought the General was articulate. How could chopping off heads be made to sound so grand, as if picking an auspicious day!

Wow! The words "The citizens of Yan Gui City will be protected" coming from the General’s mouth were so stirring!

Even Wen Ranchen’s own subordinates were moved by the righteousness in his words, let alone those soldiers.

If what Wen Ranchen said was true, that everything he did was for the people, then what were they all here for today?

Were they not people too?

What did the retraction of Prince Bai Luo’s power have to do with them, and why did they initially think Wen Ranchen would slaughter all the soldiers?

Just as Wen Ranchen said, the soldiers had elders and children to care for, persuaded to cause trouble, besides being impulsive, it was also out of future considerations.

They knew Wen Ranchen was a good official who would strive for Yan Gui City’s citizens; but they also feared that Wen Ranchen might not withstand the pressure, afraid Prince Bai Luo’s power was too great for Wen Ranchen to resist.

If they did not fight for the Prince’s interests now, everyone would be settled afterwards.

Soldiers’ households like theirs were passed down through generations, not able to leave as they wish, nor relocate, all of Yan Gui City’s Guard Army were trapped within Yan Gui City.

They were afraid.

Driven by fear, hinted by their immediate superiors, and instigated by the mischievous, they stood before Wen Ranchen today, causing trouble.

Wen Ranchen’s brilliance was in first letting those ordinary soldiers know the consequences of a mutiny, and then consecutively killing two confidants of Prince Bai Luo, eliminating their fear of those confidants.

No matter how arrogant they were in daily life, in Wen Ranchen’s hands, they could still be killed at will.

This move by Wen Ranchen also planted a new seed of fear among the soldiers.

If Wen Ranchen dared to kill those they feared, what reason do they have not to fear Wen Ranchen?

The tip of the blade dripped with blood.

The soldiers who were shouting to kill Wen Ranchen just now could not even meet his gaze as soon as it fell upon them.

First come, first served, struck at once; drained on the second effort; exhausted on the third attempt.

The situation was now quite bizarre.

The so-called mutiny occurred suddenly and ended just as suddenly.

Wen Ranchen subdued the entire scene without losing a single soldier.

At this moment, someone glanced around, hiding among the crowd, suddenly shrilled to instigate, "It sounds good when that Wen scoundrel says it, but isn’t he going to take our brothers’ heads back to the capital for accolades? He is just one person, and we have thousands. If we don’t capture him today, who knows who he will kill next—"

Wen Ranchen remembered this voice from the beginning as well.

Carrying his sword, he walked up to that person, and with just a glance, he knew who it was.

"Lord Li, are your concubines enjoying the hardworking money of the people?"

"I—"

Before the words were finished, the third head had already fallen to the ground.
