The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 1564 - 1563: Skinning

I really didn't expect Gui Wu to be so short-sighted. It's one thing to be blind to the facts in front of him, but he just had to disgrace the Zhou Family before he died.I don't know if it was a moment of madness back then that led me to bring him into the Zhou Family.

"Not muddled, not muddled, I just have a fondness for people who are as honest on the inside as they look on the outside. Such people are far more reliable than you."

To express his pleasure, Tang Rao especially promised that Gui Wu would be the first to die. As a good person who listened to Gui Wu's flattering words, he also agreed to let Zhang Wang peel his face after Gui Wu died.

There was only one Gui Wu. After Tang Rao announced his decision, the others who still wanted to aim for the opportunity to die quickly at Tang Rao's hands had no chance.

They would all face the reality of being skinned by Zhang Wang.

"No, you can't do this to us. We are from the Zhou Family. Doing this doesn't just make you an enemy of the Zhou Family, but also of the people on West Island. West Island and North Island have been at peace for so many years. Do you really want to turn against each other so soon?"

Before Gui San could finish his speech, and before he could say it with full satisfaction, he received a solid slap across his face.

"Zhou Family? I've already offended the Zhou Family a long time ago, and haven't seen anyone from West Island give me any trouble. Besides, the wife I took home is the daughter of the West Island Master, who is my father-in-law. Who do you think my father-in-law will support? You or me?"

"Of course, he'll support you!"

The one speaking wasn't Tang Rao, nor the Zhou Family, but Wang Han.

I'm not sure where Wang Han heard the news from, knowing that Tang Rao was behind the Kao Shan Shop, nor what method Wang Han used to directly come to the backyard from outside.

But the way Wang Han delivered that cutting remark just hit the spot, and Tang Rao almost couldn't hold back, giddily running over to Wang Han and giving him a deep kiss.

"Why, am I not the daughter of the West Island Master? I can certainly say a few words on behalf of my father. Are you staring at me because you think I said something wrong just now?"

Not at all, they had only heard before that Wang Han was known as an unreasonable person, but seeing it now, she was beyond unreasonable, practically a tyrant.

"I nearly forgot; now you're prisoners. Talking more to you is just a waste of words."

Might as well let Tang Rao take their lives outright.

"Let's get it over with. It's getting late, and it's time to go home."

When Wang Han looked at Tang Rao, her eyes were so soft they almost seemed to drip with water, but when she looked at the few vicious men, her expression turned back to that of an icy beauty.

"Zhang Wang, skin these people and kill them directly. If they escape, then I'll have no choice but to come after you. Did you hear me clearly?"

These few people were hard to find, tied up using the Binding Immortal Rope, significant figures. Tang Rao willingly handed them over to Zhang Wang, showing he had complete trust in Zhang Wang.

"Don't worry, boss. I guarantee to skin one and kill one, letting them die in pain and despair."

Thinking about the laborious outcome that he might soon obtain, Zhang Wang's excitement suddenly rose again.

"Wait, the Kao Shan Shop will be closing soon. Take these people to the jail in Zijing City. You handle the skinning, and someone else will kill them."

Zhang Wang's interruption almost made Tang Rao forget about the promise he made to his brothers.

"Yes."

Zhang Wang asked no questions, doing exactly as Tang Rao instructed.

Soon, including the predetermined first-to-die Gui Wu and the madman Zhou Runfa, all eight of them were taken into custody.

"Hey, I kept my promise to you."

The guards in the jail had just started their break when Tang Rao returned and sent a message via Illusion City to have them wait in the jail, saying he'd surprise them upon his return. They thought that their injuries would soon be healed and that Tang Rao had found a way to completely cure them, but Tang Rao hadn't.

He returned with only a few familiar faces.

Even reduced to ashes, they'd recognize them, having almost fallen victim to these baldies.

"Boss, can we kill them ourselves?"

The guards all communicated with Tang Rao through Illusion City, and none were aware of what the others might have privately said to Tang Rao.

Amazingly, what they said and thought was strikingly similar.

"Yes, these people were meant for you."

Tang Rao didn't use Illusion City; instead, he openly spoke his intentions before everyone.

The empty jail still echoed with Tang Rao's words.

"Thank you, boss."

"Thank you, boss."

They might not speak as Tang Rao did, but it didn't hinder their ability to thank him via Illusion City.

"Do it, then. You handle the skinning, and those who had their tongues cut out go and take their revenge."

The first part was addressed to Zhang Wang, the last to the guards. They divided the task. Tang Rao was confident that those who still dared to glare at him and curse him would soon be lying lifeless on the ground.

"Zhang Wang, hurry up. I still need to go back home and have dinner with my wives. I won't witness such a bloody scene."

The jail was a perfect stage for such a performance. Tang Rao gave it entirely to Zhang Wang while he walked happily out of the jail, holding Wang Han's arm like a dutiful little man by her side.

Outside the door, besides Wang Han waiting for him, there was also Yue Er, secretly hiding on the side.

"Yue Er, how long do you plan to hide? If you don't come out now, I'm leaving."

Wang Han and Tang Rao both noticed Yue Er nearby, but since Tang Rao hadn't spoken, Wang Han held her silence as well.

Now that Tang Rao had spoken, Wang Han turned her attention towards Yue Er.

"Master, I heard that the Zhou Family has been completely captured. Is it true?"

The Zhou Family, a nightmare for Yue Er, she knew she killed the Zhou Family Young Master, and eventually, they would find her whether she fled to the North Island or elsewhere.

Even though she followed Tang Rao, she couldn't sleep many nights, worried about being captured.

Only now, hearing that even the strongest of the Zhou Family had fallen into Tang Rao's hands, did Yue Er finally relax and come to find Tang Rao.

"Yes, they're all inside. If you're not afraid to see blood, now's the perfect time to witness Zhang Wang's skinning technique."

Tang Rao wasn't trying to scare Yue Er. Just as Yue Er was about to say no, the first gut-wrenching scream from inside burst out.

"Ah!"

After that scream, there was silence.

"Forget it, thank you, Master, for saving me. I'd better not go in."

Being a girl, Yue Er didn't have the stomach to watch a live skinning and remain calm.

"Yue Er, you are completely safe now. I still say, if you don't want to stay in the Kao Shan Sect, you can leave. I won't force you."
