Chapter 45 Only Kill!
Thinking of this, Song Shen approached and knocked on the door.
"Who is it!"
A loud voice came from the courtyard, but Song Shen did not respond, waiting coldly for the gate to be opened.
A face that was both strange and familiar appeared from inside the door.
"Is it...the third brother?"
The person inside the door looked surprised and embarrassed.
Song Shen never expected that Song was actually the original owner's older brother, Song Da, whose real name was Song Ming.
The place was bustling with noise and activity.
Song Shen ignored him and strode into the courtyard.
A quick glance revealed familiar faces inside: Song Da's wife, Song Da's son, Song Zhao and his wife, and Old Man Song. Everywhere had been converted into living quarters, and even Song Shen's training room had been turned into Song Zhao's room.
Clearly, someone was secretly enjoying themselves while Song Shen was away.
When Old Man Song saw Song Shen enter the room, he was briefly flustered, but quickly regained his composure.
"Shen, you're back? The food is just ready."
In the center of the courtyard, a sumptuous feast had just been set out, and it was unclear who it was waiting for.
Song Zhao coughed and chuckled, "Third brother, your courtyard is quite impressive! We brothers are really benefiting from your presence today..."
Song Shen said coldly, "My question is, who let you in?"
This question carried a powerful killing intent.
Since his debut, Song Shen has killed countless people with his bare hands, and his inherent killing intent is something that ordinary people cannot withstand.
The group of people in the courtyard were trembling with fear, but Old Song remained calm.
"It was the eldest young master who sent us. He said that this house was a gift from the manor, and it doesn't belong to you alone."
On the other side, Song Zhao boldly said, "Hmph! It was the eldest young master who sent us. Do you think you're so great and important? You dare disobey the eldest young master?"
Song Shen took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to kill them all. "Why are you putting these things up?"
Red characters were also posted on the wall, creating a festive atmosphere.
Old Song said, "The eldest son is kind-hearted. He found a good husband for Ah Zhen. He could have just sent Ah Zhen there directly, but he also gave me a betrothal letter. He is truly benevolent."
Song Shen took another deep breath.
Where's my sister?
"It's inside."
Song Shen walked towards the inner room, but Song Zhen's door was tightly closed.
"sister?"
Song Shen knocked on the door, but there was no response for a long time. It wasn't until he knocked a second time that Song Zhen opened the door, her eyes filled with tears.
They looked at each other in silence.
Suppressing his anger, Song Shen said, "It's alright, nothing will happen. Nobody can do anything to you."
She opened her mouth and said, "But...that's the eldest young master...we're all just slaves..."
Song Shen said calmly, "It doesn't matter who it is. Where is the Third Miss?"
"The Third Miss has gone into seclusion."
Indeed...
Relying on anyone will lead to problems.
Song Shen said softly, "Don't come out here."
"Um!"
Song Zhen nodded emphatically.
Song Shen went to the front yard, looked at the delicious food on the table, and asked, "Where is the engagement letter?"
Old Song thought Song Shen was afraid of the young master, so he immediately sent Song Zhao to fetch the betrothal letter.
"See? Third brother, we weren't lying to you."
He waved the letter of appointment, but Song Shen snatched it away.
"What did I tell you last time?" Song Shen asked with a smile.
Song Zhao was taken aback. "What did you say?"
Song Shen said calmly, "I told you if you come again, I'll show you what I'm capable of. Do you know what I'm capable of?"
A chill permeated the air.
Song Zhao felt a chill run down his spine and took a few steps back, saying, "Third brother... this is the eldest young master's order. Do you dare disobey? You..."
Song Shen pulled him over, his fingers and palm flying, and in an instant Song Zhao let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered. A moment later, his whole body turned into a piece of red pork and lay on the ground, hesitating.
"Third brother, what are you doing?!"
As Song Ming shouted, he strode forward, and the women and children in the courtyard were crying and screaming.
"Don't shout yet, it's not over yet."
Song Shen stepped forward and stomped on Song Zhao's left arm.
Click.
"Get out of here right now, or I'll cut your head off."
No one saw Song Shen draw his sword, but a cold glint flashed.
The banquet tables and chairs were cut in half.
Song Zhao screamed and scrambled to her feet, running towards the door.
"You're waiting for this groom, right? Hmm, his name is Sun Changhai, isn't it?"
Song Shen said coldly.
Song Ming was so frightened that he almost lost control of his bladder and dared not speak again.
Old Song was also deeply terrified. If Song Shen's slash had been even slightly off, Song Zhao would have been cut in two.
Is this my son who has been afraid of the dark since he was a child?
Is this the son who was bullied since childhood but never dared to speak up?
This is the son who cried until he fainted when he was sold off?
Song Shen shot him a sharp look: "I'm asking you a question."
"Ahem... Yes, they said they're coming over for dinner tonight."
Song Shen plopped down and chuckled, "Very well, I'll wait here."
Everyone trembled with fear, unsure of what Song Shen was about to do.
Old Song opened his mouth, his voice trembling, and said, "Third brother... don't be impulsive. I was wrong this time, but it was indeed the eldest young master's good intention. Don't upset him, or you won't be able to bear it."
Song Shen cursed, "You damn old bastard, you old scum, your head is covered in sores, your feet are oozing pus, your heart, liver, intestines, and lungs are all rotten, your mouth spews filth, and your ass is breathing out stinking filth. You won't live past this winter, you'll die a horrible death."
"You...you..."
Old Song clutched his chest and collapsed to the ground, his finger trembling as he pointed at Song Shen.
Song Dagang wanted to assert his authority as the boss, but when Song Shen looked at him, he immediately covered his head and lay on the ground, because he thought that the unpredictable big sword was about to be drawn again.
There was a knock on the door.
Song Shen said cheerfully, "Come in."
A short man strode in. He looked tough, but his appearance was really lacking: a fleshy head and nose, a huge mouth, and a large mole on the corner of his mouth.
"Hey, what's going on here?"
The man was somewhat taken aback, but when he looked at Song Shen, he immediately smiled and said, "Is this Brother Song? I am Sun Changhai, also a first-class bodyguard. The young master himself arranged the marriage, haha, he can be your brother-in-law from now on..."
Song Shen interrupted him, saying, "Shut up! Swallow this betrothal letter."
Sun Changhai knew that the eldest young master and the third young lady did not get along, and he also knew that the eldest young master had sent him for a reason, so he remained calm and unhurried.
"Brother, why be so arrogant? The martial world isn't yours to call the shots, and neither is the Cao family. You and your sister were originally servants of this household. Don't think that just because you've been promoted to first-class guard, you can forget your roots. You'll always be a servant of this household! The eldest young master can simply bestow a reward upon whoever he wants to marry your sister, but this time he actually issued a proper betrothal letter and even spoke with your father personally. That's already a huge favor. How dare you be ungrateful? Old Song, don't you agree?"
Old Song said in agreement, "Grandpa Sun is right..."
The next moment he screamed in agony as his last few teeth flew out.
Sun Changhai's face twitched. He hadn't expected Song Shen to be so domineering. He even hit his own father. Was he even human?
Song Shen said calmly, "Eat this betrothal letter, then come with me. I don't want to say it a second time."
Tensions.
Sun Changhai knew how formidable the enemy was when he arrived, and immediately drew his sword to defend himself.
next moment,
A dark shadow rushed in, a gust of wind pressed down on my body, and the air was filled with shooting fingers and palms.
"How dare you!"
Sun Changhai raised his sword to parry, but he had no idea that Song Shen had taken his sword away at some point. He could only use his hands to fight back, and after a series of collisions, several bloody holes appeared on his hands.
Blood was everywhere.
A murderous intent was brewing.
Sun Changhai was horrified and retreated without stopping.
Song Shen's figure appeared like a ghost and grabbed his shoulder, instantly immobilizing half of his body. When he released the grip, several bloody holes appeared on the joints of his arm.
He couldn't even figure out how his opponent did it.
Amidst immense pain, a lump of something appeared in his mouth.
It was that bundle of betrothal documents that Song Shen used his fists to smash the documents, along with his teeth, to pieces. With a final slap, he swallowed the broken pieces of paper.
"I'll give you a number now. Take all your stuff and get out of here right now, or I'm going to kill you."
Amidst the horror of excrement and urine flowing freely, Old Song and his family fled with their belongings like rats.
"sister!"
Song Zhen came out from inside the door, and Song Shen pulled him along, leading Sun Changhai towards the long street.
A moment later.
The Cao family mansion, the secluded room of the third young lady.
An old servant blocked their way, saying, "The Third Miss is currently in seclusion and cannot be entered!"
Song Shen kicked the man several feet away.
"Third Miss, Song Shen requests an audience."
lean less,
The third young lady, Cao Yu, came out from inside the door impatiently. "What is it?"
After showing her the old servant on the ground, her pretty face immediately turned fierce, but when she saw Song Zhen and Sun Changhai, doubts arose again.
Song Shen then explained the whole story.
The third young lady sighed and said softly, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect Cao Zhang to be such a despicable scoundrel."
Immediately,
Her gaze fell on Sun Changhai.
Sun Changhai never dreamed that things would be this serious, although he knew that he was helping the eldest young master to deal with the kid under Cao Yu who displeased the eldest young master.
However, the current situation terrified him.
"Third Miss... I truly had no idea, it was the Eldest Young Master..."
Cao Yu nodded calmly: "I know, you don't need to say anything, I don't blame you."
Sun Changhai felt as if he had been granted a pardon and was about to express his gratitude.
A streak of silver light pierced the sky.
Sun Changhai's head flew high into the air.
"Maybe you should reflect on your actions in your next life."
Cao Yu took a deep breath and said, "I'm sorry—now, I will seek justice for you. We both had no choice but to come to this point. After today, you will be suppressed. You need to lie low and wait. I will let all of this pass."
Song Shen nodded slightly.
this day,
The third young lady, Cao Yu, arrived at the eldest young master's courtyard. Without uttering a word, the girl drew her sword and cut off the jade crown on his head.
Cao Yu was held accountable by the First Madam, who used all her power to hold him accountable, and he lost his power to manage family affairs.
The head of the family decreed that Song Shen had betrayed his master and ancestors, deviated from human ethics, and was utterly inhuman. He was suspended from all his duties, the previously bestowed courtyard was confiscated, and his salary was forfeited for three years. Cao Yu was temporarily put in charge of his care, pending further action.
Everything that was on the right track has completely vanished.
……
That day and night,
Thunderstorm.
Song Shen sat silently in the room, pondering everything that had happened in the past few days.
The title of servant was given to me upon my transmigration.
All his friends lived under this identity, including Feng Zhiyuan, Duan Chong, and even Qian Huan and Wei Dashu in the beginning. In this life, they all lived a life of obeying orders and being manipulated.
I am the same.
So, who can punish those who lord it over us, acting with impunity and tyranny?
In this corrupt world, there is no justice for the powerless.
A common man's anger can cause blood to splatter three feet deep.
But Song Shen was not without a blade in his hand... He suffered all kinds of humiliation for no reason, and endured the eldest young master's persistent disgust.
When I was still weak, patience was a habit.
But now, Song Shen has realized that patience will never yield good results.
The only option is to kill!
Game theory? No more game theory.
All Song Shen could rely on was the white blade in his hand; he believed that it was enough to solve all his problems.
The eldest son, and everything behind him...
It's time to let them feel my anger.
