nThis Woman Is Not to Be Trifled With

nTo give up a hand in exchange for a life.

nA true gentleman seeks revenge, even if it takes a decade.

nAs long as he remained alive, he would surely exact it a hundredfold!

nCrack!

nHe closed his eyes and forcefully snapped his own right hand.

nThe bones in his wrist snapped abruptly, contorting his hand into a grotesque shape.

nTaking a deep breath, his trembling lips asked, “Big sister, is it enough?”

n“Song Sheng, escort them off the ship.”

nGu Jinrong seethed with anger, “You’re breaking your promise!”

nSong Sheng stepped forward and effortlessly subdued his attempts to resist. He lifted him up and walked him to the edge of the ship, throwing him overboard like a sack of sand.

nBang!

nGu Jinrong fell into a small boat that was docked beside the pirate ship. His injured hand was pressed down, and he couldn’t help but scream.

nImmediately after, Gu Jinyue was also thrown down.

nThe boat almost sunk into the sea.

nGu Jinrong disregarded the pain and quickly took control of the boat.

n“Whether you can escape this sea region will depend on your luck. I eagerly anticipate our next encounter.”

nA mocking voice resounded from above.

nGu Jinrong glanced up and saw the woman in white standing calmly behind the railing.

nHe clenched his teeth and used his uninjured hand to steady the oar.

nThey would meet again!

nWhen that time came, he would have his revenge!

n..

nGu Qingluan turned around and noticed the peculiar expressions on the pirates’ faces as if they were petrified with fear by her presence.

n“Have you seen enough?” she asked, raising an eyebrow.

nZhao Ba couldn’t help but be curious. “Aren’t you afraid of retaliation from these siblings? They don’t seem like forgiving individuals.”

nAs she watched the siblings getting farther away, Gu Qingluan’s eyes gleamed with a cold determination.

nRetaliation?

nShe had waited for five years. Even if they didn’t seek her out, she would seek them out.

nGu Jinrong and Gu Jinyue were nothing more than insignificant pests. Crushing them like this would be too merciful.

nIt was much more entertaining to settle scores gradually!

nShe shifted her beautiful gaze and instructed Song Sheng and Bo He to untie the pirates.

nAfter gaining his freedom, Zhao Ba crossed his fingers and squeezed them. “Heroine, aren’t you afraid that we’ll go back on our words?”

n“You can try.” Gu Qingluan glanced at him with a faint smile.

nShe wasn’t afraid that these pirates would disobey her.

nThe ghost pirates had been in the Eastern Sea for many years. Before Gu Qingluan settled down on Harmony Isle, the ghost pirates were already tyrants here.

nMost pirates were extremely vicious, but the ghost pirates were different. It was indeed as they said, they only cared about money and not life.

nGu Jinrong and Gu Jinyue were held hostage by them mostly because these two people had nothing good to say and angered the ghost pirates.

n“No need! There’s no need to try!” Zhao Ba shivered.

nThis lady was so cruel. He was not stupid enough to offend her.

n“Cut the crap and get to work.”

n“Heroine, do you have a task for us? Please tell us! We’re all ears!”

nHaving witnessed Gu Qingluan’s methods, these pirates became increasingly obedient. Even the pirate leader showed no signs of resistance.

n“Shi Yunhu, I need you to do something for me,” Gu Qingluan said, looking at the pirate chief.

nThe pirate chief was stunned. He thought about how he had just signed the account book. It was not strange that the other party knew his name.

n“Lady Gu, do you have any instructions for me?”

nAfter Gu Qingluan finished her plan, Zhao Ba gave her a thumbs up. “So, Lady Gu still has a trick up her sleeve. No one can beat you when it comes to cruelty!”

nSeeing the chief calling her Lady Gu, Zhao Ba followed suit.

nGu Qingluan glanced over.

nZhao Ba was so frightened that his neck shrank back.

nTsk!

nHow could he forget that this woman was not to be trifled with?
