Chapter 1154: Drag The Bald Fat Man Out Of Her Teahouse
Chapter 1154: Chapter 1154: Drag The Bald Fat Man Out Of Her Teahouse
The bald, fat man gritted his remaining teeth so hard his jaw creaked.
In his entire spoiled life, he had never been subjected to such soul-crushing humiliation. First, Bai Xifeng had publicly mocked his hideous appearance. Then, she had kicked him like a dog into a solid wall. And now, she had literally knocked his teeth out right in front of a dozen witnesses.
If he possessed the power, he would have ripped her limb from limb on the spot.
Unfortunately, he did not dare to make a single move.
After all, he had already personally experienced the terrifying, overwhelming gap in their physical strength twice now. As arrogant as he was, he was not brainless enough to throw himself at her a third time just to invite an even more brutal beating.
Bai Xifeng stared down at his trembling form, a cold, ruthless smirk curving her lips as she delivered her final warning.
"Listen closely. If you ever dare to set foot in my establishment again, I will personally ensure you lose something extraordinarily precious to you. Something... that allows a man to pass down his bloodline." Bai Xifeng stated with eerie calmness.
Although she had not explicitly uttered any vulgar anatomical terms, the underlying threat behind her smooth words was crystal-clear, graphic, and utterly terrifying.
Every single male standing in that room immediately felt an icy, horrific chill shoot straight up their spines.
They understood with terrifying clarity exactly what Bai Xifeng was implying.
Bai Xifeng was explicitly threatening to slice off his manhood and turn him into a eunuch.
The men in the room instinctively squeezed their legs together, a deep, phantom ache washing over them just from thinking about it. Not a single soul dared to imagine the sheer horror if Bai Xifeng actually decided to follow through on that threat.
They had always heard high-society rumours claiming that Great General Bai’s daughter was a ruthless figure who should never be provoked under any circumstances, but witnessing her terrifying, unhinged actions in person made them truly grasp what a monster she was.
Forget it. It’s ten times safer to offend the Emperor himself than to cross Bai Xifeng!
After all, the Emperor was a man, too. Even if the ruler of the realm grew enraged, he would surely hesitate before inflicting such a specific, horrifying punishment on another man because he understood the sheer agony involved.
Bai Xifeng, on the other hand, looked like she would slice a man’s pride off as casually as trimming a stray thread off her dress.
"Well then, you may go now." Bai Xifeng said offhandedly, dismissing them as if she had merely finished giving a child a mild scolding.
Captain Sir Jun and the rest of the Royal Guard squad immediately took the hint that it was time to flee.
They did not want to remain inside La Chaguan Teahouse for a single second longer than necessary. The longer they lingered in her presence, the higher the fatal risk that this fat fool would blurt out another brainless comment and provoke Bai Xifeng into slaughtering them all.
The bald, fat man, who had been roaring like a dragon moments earlier, did not dare to squeak out a single word of protest.
This young lady was an absolute, unhinged demon. She had threatened to castrate him right in front of the Imperial Guard without even batting an eye! There was not a single shred of fear or hesitation in her piercing eyes, proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that she genuinely did not care about the political consequences of crippling him.
Captain Sir Jun hurriedly barked at his men to haul the bleeding, fat fool out through the teahouse doors at top speed.
As the guards practically dragged the man away, several patrons and local merchants who had been secretly eavesdropping on the entire confrontation from the surrounding rooms began exchanging wide-eyed glances. Once they were absolutely certain that the Royal Guards and the fat tyrant were well out of earshot, they began whispering excitedly among themselves.
"Finally! Gods above, someone was finally brave and powerful enough to teach that fat pig a bloody lesson!"
"That’s right! Ever since his sister caught the Emperor’s eye in the palace, that scumbag has ruined dozens of honest business owners, forcing hard-working merchants to abandon their livelihoods and flee the Capital!"
"Serves him right! I hope she knocks out the rest of his teeth next time!"
"Hmph... but let’s not get ahead of ourselves. We can’t be entirely sure the Royal Guards will actually punish or arrest him, though."
"Ah... you are right. The Royal Guards only showed up because that fat bastard used his sister’s token to call them. Who knows if they will actually hold him accountable for his endless crimes?"
"Sigh... yeah, that’s true."
The excited chatter gradually settled into a heavy, serious atmosphere as the onlookers considered the grim reality.
They had suffered under the fat man’s tyrannical oppression for months. Some had seen their family shops forcibly bought out for coppers, while others had been threatened with jail time and forced to abandon the honest businesses they had slaved over for decades. Yet, because of his direct backing from the Imperial Palace, not a single one of them had ever possessed the courage or political power to stand up against his tyranny.
However, seeing Bai Xifeng fearlessly slap him around like a dog opened up a whole new realm of possibilities in their minds. They did not need to fear that bald fat man.
"We can’t just sit here and let this fat bastard continue terrorising our shops forever!" One small merchant suddenly declared, slamming his fist onto a table.
