“You! You, country bumpkin, you dared to do this to me!” The person could not hold back his anger as he stretched his hands out to cover the torn shreds of his robe.

Lou Xiaoxiao held the sword and pointed it at his throat. “Seeing how you’re dressed, you’re only a servant in the Prefectural Governor’s mansion! So what exactly are you so proud of? Even if I’m not good, my surname is still Lou.”

The person’s face turned pale, and his whole body trembled as he stared at the long sword. “Put, put the sword down…”

“Give me a reason to put my sword down,” Lou Xiaoxiao said as she exerted a little strength.

The man felt a wave of pain in his neck, and he almost fell apart. “I was in the wrong. I realize my mistake. Young lady, I shouldn’t have looked down on you. I beg you to let me go. I still have an elderly mother at home…”

He was still begging for mercy when he saw someone. His eyes lit up as he pitifully shouted, “Third Young Master! Third Young Master, help me! Someone wants to kill me!”

“Third Young Master?”

“Third Young Master is here?”

Upon hearing this loud shout, everyone who was intently watching the central square, turned around one after another. They started looking at their surroundings.

Soon, they spotted a man dressed in embroidered clothes striding toward them.

“Third Young Master! It’s really Third Young Master!”

“Isn’t Third Young Master in the Imperial City? Why is he back?”

“Exactly! The mother of Third Young Master and Young Lady is a noble princess. Third Young Master has been learning with the prince in the Imperial City since he was young. Why did he suddenly come back?”

The crowd became doubtful.

“Third Young Master, Third Young Master, save me. I’m Lou Ying. Please save me on account of my mother!” The man below Lou Xiaoxiao’s sword pitifully shouted again.

“Huh? Lou Ying.” The man in the embroidered clothes, who was striding over, asked. “Are you my nanny’s son, Lou Ying?”

“Yes, Third Young Master. It’s me, it’s me!”

The man in the embroidered clothes nodded and shifted his gaze onto Lou Xiaoxiao. After looking at her and the Lou family’s juniors who were cowering behind her, he frowned. “Regardless of who you all are, put your sword down, break one of your arms yourselves, and leave the Lou family. I’ll spare your life.”

Lou Xiaoxiao also frowned. “Are the rules of the Prefectural Governor’s mansion like this?”

“I’m the rule in the Prefectural Governor’s mansion,” The man in the embroidered clothes coldly and arrogantly said.

Such wild words. His status in the Prefectural Governor’s mansion should definitely be high?

What should I do?

Lou Xiaoxiao was hesitant.

Everyone in the surroundings became silent as they looked at Lou Xiaoxiao as if they were looking at an idiot and a dead person.

“I’ll count to three. If you don’t take action, I’ll help you to do it,” The man in the embroidered clothes calmly said. “One.”

“Two.”

“Hold on—” Lou Xiaoxiao could tell that this young man was serious. She could not help herself as she said, “I’m not convinced. He’s a servant, and my surname’s Lou. Even though I’m not a family member of the head, I’m also a guest. However, he kept insulting me. I’m not wrong for teaching him a lesson!”

“No, you’re wrong,” The man in the embroidered clothes domineeringly said. “Although he’s a servant, he’s the son of my nanny. Although your surname is Lou, in my eyes, you’re an ant. Therefore, it’s natural for him to scold you, and you deserve it. By taking action, you have disrespected me. So you’ll have to pay a price.”

“What a great Third Young Master! He’s really overbearing and arrogant.”

The man in the embroidered clothes dangerously narrowed his eyes. “The nonsense is over. I should take action.”

In the blink of an eye, his figure flashed and he appeared in front of Lou Xiaoxiao. With the flash of a cold light, the weapon in his hand slashed at Lou Xiaoxiao’s shoulder.

“Falling Flowers!” Lou Xiaoxiao’s expression changed as she swung the tip of her sword.

Beautiful flowers made up of Essence Martial Power appeared out of thin air and exploded.

The powerful impact made Third Young Master pause for a moment.

“Huh?” A tinge of surprise flashed past his eyes. “You dodged it! Your martial skills are not bad. However…”

With a cold gaze, he sinisterly said, “Since this is the case, I definitely want your arm!”
