“Move aside.” Shen Erkui brought a bucket of water over and poured it on the flaming duo. With a distinct hissing sound, Shen Erkui managed to extinguish the flames clinging to the two men.

Meanwhile, everyone else busied themselves, trying to put out the still-raging fire.

Su Wen watched the going-on as if she were an outsider looking into the scene, but that soon changed when she strode up to Tian Gang and Tian Yong, the two men lying prone on the ground. A cold smile danced against the backdrop of flickering flames. “How is it?” she asked. “Did you enjoy being roasted alive?”

Despite being on the verge of unconsciousness, Tian Yong and Tian Gang felt their hearts skip a beat upon hearing Su Wen’s callous words. The pain they felt, both physical and mental, could not compare to the injury they sustained from Su Wen’s barbed words.

Su Wen knew the two men were listening. Illuminated by the flames surrounding them, her smile looked like that of a demoness rather than a human. Hardened criminals they may have been, but at that moment, they were so terrified of the vision of inhuman malice wrought in Su Wen’s cold look that their vision turned black.

Tian Gang even coughed out a mouthful of blood.

“Tsk, tsk. Uncle, I heard you came tonight with evil ideas on your mind. Is that true?”

“I… Uh…” Tian Yong’s eyes widened so much that the whites of his pupils were visible. He stared at Su Wen in disbelief. How had Su Wen identified who he was? Her utter ruthlessness was more shocking, however. Despite knowing he was her uncle, she had continued her bold-faced disregard for his pitiful condition.

She had even set fire to her house to smoke him out!

He… What was wrong with his eyes? How could he have misjudged her so? If he had known Su Wen was so vicious, he would not have dared scheme against her even if he possessed more courage than the ordinary man.

Tian Yong and Tian Gang had colluded with human traffickers in their youth.

Back then, it had not been hard to ‘vanish’ a person, selling them off like cattle. If anyone asked, they could always say that the missing person had moved to another, more remote, mountain village. Stricter measures in recent years had curtailed their business, and now, it was much harder for them to do as they had done once upon a time.

There was no good or evil. They were ‘good’ while in the presence of relatives and friends, behaving honestly and properly as was expected by society. On the other hand, when they were ‘bad,’ they wore another mask, one more suited to their less… socially acceptable dealings. Such was the collective phenomenon known as ‘human nature.’ Those asked might have described the duo as simple, honest, weather-worn farmers based on their appearances alone. However, if they judged the book by its cover, they would inadvertently open themselves to being cheated.

In this manner, Tian Yong and Tian Gang deceived people from county and provincial cities alike.

Every success bolstered their egos, which turned into arrogance. This arrogance was what had led to their hubris and their present situation. One who acted ruthlessly against others was not as scary as one who was ruthless to themselves and willing to stake their lot in life if only to bring down their adversaries.

Tian Yong and Tian Gang shuddered violently. In their fear, they forget their pain.

Su Wen’s hand traced Tian Yong’s lower body, and she asked, “How many girls have you ruined, Tian Yong? Today, I shall take revenge on their behalf!”

Before Tian Yong could process Su Wen’s words, she raised her foot and stamped on the dry ground. Hard.

“Ahh!” An ear-piercing scream tore through the night, shocking everyone in the vicinity. Even those busying themselves trying to put out the fire could not help but turn toward Tian Yong in shock. Su Wen’s hands were clenched, and her shoulders were stiff, a chilling expression demanding nothing but obedience carved on her face. “Stop screaming!”

“What are you screaming for?”

Angry voices made themselves heard. People like Tian Yong and Tian Gang did not deserve to have their dignity preserved.

“Little Wen, are you okay? Are you hurt?” Shen Erkui fussed, having just finished checking on Su Qing and the other Su sisters. He had been paying attention to Su Wen’s confrontation with the horrid men from the corner of his eye
