Chapter 60: Mincemeat
Liu Rushuang thought she heard the sound of their heartbeats. She walked over to them, then spoke with an emotionless tone of voice. “You want to commit suicide? Keep dreaming!”
“That’s right! Young Miss, these bad people deserve a painful death to avenge those who were persecuted.” Qing’Er was raised with a kind mother, but after her mother was killed by her gambling addict father, she’s resented bad people.
She hoped that one day, she could strike her gambling addict of a father with a sword and avenge her mother.
Liu Rushuang looked at Madam Liu and Mama Zhao with wide eyes full of fear. She raised her right hand and conjured a fireball in her palm.
Madam Liu and Mama Zhao stared the fireball drawing closer to them. The sob in their throats grew louder.
Did the Third Young Miss wanted to burn them to death?
What a truly ruthless heart!
A hint of delight flashed across Liu Rushuang’s serene, dark eyes. If this fire was to burn her foe’s body, would the hidden pain in her heart simmer down?
With an evil gaze, Liu Rushuang gradually edged the fire towards Madam Liu and watched her cry non-stop with frightened tears flowing from her eyes. Then, she smiled in satisfaction.
After she pushed Madam Liu to extreme fear, she slowly edged the fireball towards her chest.
She watched as Madam Liu’s clothes started to slowly burn. Liu Rushuang suddenly started to laugh hysterically, as two lines of running tears couldn’t help but flow down her face.
Mother, I’m finally avenging you!
Madam Liu watched as the cloth on her chest burned and sobbed endlessly. Slowly, she couldn’t see a shed of light in her desperate eyes.
She didn’t want to die like that. She thought it was so unfair and she really wanted to kill that wench. She hated her so much…
The intense pain in her chest clearly told Madam Liu that it would be impossible for everything she wished for to happen.
She was going to turn into ashes and smoke!
Beside her, Mama Zhao had fainted from fear a long time ago.
Liu Rushuang glanced over at the oily chubby face and her eyes turned instantly more murderous and cruel.
In the same way, she conjured the fireball and hurled it at the clothes on Mama Zhao’s chest.
“Ugh…” Mama Zhao immediately woke up from the pain.
“Uh… Uh.. Wahhhh…” Mama Zhao and Madam Liu cried in anguish from the burning pain but their jaws were dislocated, so they couldn’t cry out loud.
Qing’Er’s glared at them and pouted. “Let’s see the two of you ever dare do terrible things again!”
Since she arrived at the minister’s manor half a year ago, these two bad people would always trouble her and the Young Miss.
She always wanted to properly get revenge.
But then again, the Young Miss’ methods were indeed a little ruthless. Just by watching alone, Qing’Er felt like she too could feel the pain.
Although the four assassins were a little startled by Liu Rushuang’s wild nature, they were not too affected by it.
They were used to seeing life and death situations. There wasn’t a kind of cruel technique they hadn’t seen.
Burning to death was a rather merciful way to die!
However, what Liu Rushuang said next changed their minds.
She was practically a demon!
Liu Rushuang stared at the spreading flames all over Madam Liu and Mama Zhao’s body, then emotionlessly said, “Put out the fire.”
The assassins were completely shocked for a moment. It looked like their leader didn’t want the two of them to die so easily.
Thereafter, they quickly fetched several buckets of water from the well beside them and put out the fire on Madam Liu and Mama Zhao’s bodies.
Madam Liu and Mama Zhao suddenly woke up after they fainted earlier from the pain.
Wh-why aren’t they dead yet?
They really regretted not successfully committing suicide. That way, they would have suffered less!
Madam Liu looked down at her dishevelled clothes, the lashes of bloody wounds and the swollen red areas of exposed skin. Then, she looked up and started crying loudly, “Wahhhhh…”
Liu Rushuang looked over at the bloody wounds from the burns she inflicted, then reached her hand out to touch them. Her touch immediately made Madam Liu gasp.
