Zhou Weijun's mouth twitched, his face grim: "Yuan Shao, what exactly do you want?"

"Haha, nothing much!" Yuan Shao pointed at Shui Liao: "That's my subordinate, and you actually subdued him. I'm quite surprised. It seems you've brought along some experts."

Now in Yuan Shao's eyes, there seemed to be only Zhou Weijun.

Although he didn't understand the relationship between Ye Guichen and Zhou Weijun, he still felt that Ye Guichen was an expert hired by Zhou Weijun.

"Weijun, I regret not taking your sister-in-law back then. Otherwise, Qing'er would be my daughter now, wouldn't that be right?" Yuan Shao laughed wantonly.

Zhou Weijun's face turned red with anger: "Yuan Shao, I was blind to recognize you as a brother back then. Today, let's settle this once and for all. Either you die or I perish!"

"Very well!" Yuan Shao seemed to have been waiting for this sentence from Zhou Weijun. He squinted at Ye Guichen: "Who is this young man? Would you care to introduce him?"

"Ye Guichen!" Ye Guichen shrugged: "Since you guys are old acquaintances, resolve your personal grudges first. After you settle your issues, we'll then address the matter of the medicinal street, step by step, no need to rush."

"Haha, good, Brother Ye, I like your attitude!" Yuan Shao straightened up and focused again on Zhou Weijun: "Weijun, it's been twenty years since we last met, right? I almost died by your hand over a woman back then. But heaven did not forsake me. I, Yuan Shao, am protected by my ancestors. Now that I'm back, let's start our settlement with women, shall we?"

While speaking, Yuan Shao pulled Liu Ruyi onto his lap.

Liu Ruyi let out a coquettish cry, confused by Yuan Shao's intention: "General Yuan, what are you doing?"

"Shh...!" Yuan Shao made a silencing gesture and continued speaking to Zhou Weijun: "Dear brother, let me introduce her. This is Liu Ruyi, the owner of this underground casino. My ability to acquire the medicinal street this time is closely related to Boss Liu. So, Boss Liu is also my business partner."

"Back then, we became enemies over a woman. I ended up like a homeless dog, almost dead. Today, I want to use a woman to regain my life. Haha, dear brother, what do you think?"

At this point, Yuan Shao gazed intensely at Zhou Weijun.

Others did not understand Yuan Shao's words, but Zhou Weijun's eyelid twitched: "You, do you want to play that Lingchi game with me?"

"Haha, dear brother, you know me so well." Yuan Shao waved to someone beside him: "Bring me two slightly blunt daggers. We haven't seen each other for so long; today, we should get reacquainted."

No one else understood the meaning behind Yuan Shao and Zhou Weijun's actions.

Even Liu Ruyi was utterly confused.

Soon, someone brought over two daggers.

The daggers were not sharp; they might even struggle to cut through flesh.

Yuan Shao took one himself, then pointed at Zhou Weijun, gesturing for him to take the other.

Zhou Weijun's hand trembled slightly as he held the dagger, gritting his teeth and glaring at Yuan Shao: "What if I don't want to play with you?"

"Haha, whether you want to play this game is not up to you!" Yuan Shao laughed and suddenly pulled out a bone from his chest.

The bone seemed like a human's calf bone.

He shook it lightly and shouted at Shui Liao: "Shui Liao, get up!"

Originally subdued by Ye Guichen's Divine Soul Breaking Hole Technique, Shui Liao suddenly became frenzied, struggling continuously, his eyes turning red. Soon, his entire body contorted, and he directly knocked away the four people carrying him.

Those four flew away, spitting blood violently, evidently seriously injured.

"Roar!"

Shui Liao roared, clenched his fists tightly, sweat pouring from his body, his face full of pain, though his eyes remained fervently fixed on the bone in Yuan Shao's hand: "General, General, please don't! I will obey you completely! I will listen to you completely!"

This sudden change left everyone horrified.

Iron Hand and Su Jiu'er stiffened, unable to comprehend what was happening.

"What's wrong with Shui Liao?" Su Jiu'er asked, her voice trembling.

Ye Guichen furrowed his brow, perplexed as well. However, it appeared that the bone in Yuan Shao's hand had a significant effect on Shui Liao, even allowing him to break through Ye Guichen's Divine Soul Breaking Hole Technique.

Soon, amidst his madness, Shui Liao's flesh burst open, spraying blood mist.

Then, he ran swiftly, like a moving tank, and knelt before Yuan Shao, eyes still fixed on the bone: "General, General."

Yuan Shao smiled contentedly, shaking the bone: "Very good."

Then, he pointed at a nearby rockery: "Go."

After a slight hesitation, Shui Liao turned and punched the rockery.

Boom!

Like an explosion, his punch directly shattered the rockery.

Everyone present was stunned.

After completing this, Shui Liao returned to Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao looked at Zhou Weijun: "I wanted to finish the medicinal street matters before looking for you, but since you've come to me, I can play with you first. Haha, dear brother, do you think you have a choice?"

Zhou Weijun looked at Ye Guichen with difficulty, evidently afraid.

Ye Guichen frowned: "What do you mean?"

Ye Guichen didn't know the Lingchi game they were talking about.

It was clear that this game was something they played together in the past.

"Let me explain to you." Yuan Shao seemed unhurried and, seeing Ye Guichen's inquiry, said: "It's actually quite simple. I invented this game. Many years ago, when we were tomb raiding, we were often bored. So, we would catch some wild beasts, tie them up, and each take a knife to stab them."

"At first, whoever's beast died first would lose. But gradually, I felt this was too dull, so I improved it. Instead of looking at whose knife skills were better, why not use duller knives and stab the beasts, also forbidding the beasts from feeling pain. If any beast struggled, bled out, or died due to pain, then naturally, the person would lose."

Yuan Shao spoke slowly.

But hearing his words, everyone felt chills down their spine.

Too cruel.

To bleed the beast without making it feel pain—that's truly perverse.

Even Liu Ruyi, sitting on Yuan Shao's lap, shivered.

Zhou Weijun's face turned even darker, forcing a bitter smile at Ye Guichen: "I was indeed a scoundrel back then. One time, we even caught two women because we had just escaped death from a tomb and urgently needed to vent. After venting, we felt inexplicably empty, so we played this game with the two women..."

Ye Guichen's lip twitched.

"Damn it, are you still human?" Su Jiu'er couldn't bear it: "You are simply beasts! How could you come up with such a game!"

"Haha, dear brother, this woman is good. Come on." Yuan Shao pointed at Su Jiu'er and then patted Liu Ruyi's cheek: "I'll use Boss Liu. Each of us will take a knife. If I lose, all previous debts are settled, and I will never trouble you again. But if you lose, not only will you kneel and apologize to me, but I will also take your life today. What do you think?"

While speaking, Yuan Shao waved his hand.

Several figures surrounded Zhou Weijun and Ye Guichen, preventing their escape.

The woman beside Yuan Shao smiled slightly, seeming to look forward to the game.
