Chapter 145: Chapter 145: Chop It Up and Feed the Pigs

Just as Guan Ying was about to flee, a piercing pain suddenly shot through the base of her thigh. Scalding blood sprayed out like a fountain. Her balance faltered, and she stumbled, tumbling heavily to the ground. The physical agony, compounded by the sheer terror of death, made her heart nearly stop.

Right at this Time, the target of her mission dashed forward and attacked. His Long Sword showed absolutely no mercy as it severed one of Guan Ying’s arms.

"AH!" she let out a muffled groan of pain, but a foot immediately stomped down right onto her face!

"A woman?" Chen Mo frowned slightly. With the Yun Qing Sword in his hand, he flicked away her black veil. Instantly, a face every bit as beautiful as Xia Wan’s was revealed.

At this Time, whether the assassin was a man or a woman, there was absolutely no room for showing mercy. After all, they had come to assassinate him! Yet, right at this Time, Chen Mo seemed to change into a completely different person. A wicked, lecherous smile spread across his face. He flicked his Long Sword again, slicing open her black clothes to reveal skin that had turned pale from blood loss.

He patted her chest with the flat of his blade and said, "Oh my, if I had known you were a woman, I wouldn’t have been so heavy-handed." As he spoke, he channeled his Spiritual Qi to seal the bleeding in her severed right arm and left leg.

"Let... let me go," Guan Ying pleaded, clinging to a tiny sliver of hope for survival.

"We have no past grievances and no recent enmity, so why would I kill you?" Chen Mo said with a look of pure innocence. "I’m really sorry. I was just startled earlier, which is why I struck so hard. You must know, someone recently tried to poison me."

"That... that has... nothing to do... with us..."

"Of course it has nothing to do with you," Chen Mo replied. He stripped away the rest of Guan Ying’s clothing with his sword and tossed aside the concealed weapons he found one by one. He took the Storage Ring off her index finger and placed it on a nearby table. Then, he threw her significantly lighter body over his shoulder and headed toward the backyard.

Chen Mo wondered why she would claim it had nothing to do with them. If a normal person truly knew nothing about it, shouldn’t they look surprised, or simply continue begging for their life? Blurting out a denial like that almost certainly meant she was trying to clear her own name. Furthermore, Chen Mo had always been an honest and dutiful farmer all these years. He had never actively offended anyone. Therefore, he absolutely did not believe that Yan Ronglin had nothing to do with these two assassins!

Carrying Guan Ying’s body, Chen Mo walked straight into the Breeding backyard. On the ground lay another cold corpse. He set the completely naked assassin down on a chair facing him, then walked over to the corpse and repeated the process. Just as Chen Mo took out a Porcelain Bottle and prepared to cast the Poison Relief Technique, a phrase suddenly popped into his mind: chop them up and feed them to the dogs!

In a flash, he darted back into the house and reappeared just as quickly. Right in front of Guan Ying, he began to dismember the corpse.

"Mmph."

Unable to move in her chair, Guan Ying felt her scalp tingle and a chill run down her spine. She never expected that the target they had set their sights on would be such a cold-blooded, murderous, and terrifying monster! The scene that followed made her hair stand on end, filling her heart with absolute dread!

She watched as he picked up both her and the chair, carried her to the pigpen, and then began to feed the pigs. The Six-headed Spirit Pig gathered around and began to eat, CHOMP CHOMP. Before long, the Six-headed Spirit Pig had eaten every last scrap of the food.

Guan Ying witnessed the entire process, her mind struggling to comprehend the gruesome sight. Trembling all over, she did not even dare to imagine what it would look like to have her own dead body eagerly devoured by the Spirit Pig!

Chen Mo noted with delight that they really were omnivores. In that case, why use the Poison Relief Technique at all? Not only was it a waste of materials, but it was also a waste of resources!

Then, once again right in front of the woman, he fed all the remaining pieces to the Six-headed Spirit Pig. Pigs were pigs—they truly had an endless appetite.

By the Time he finished, Guan Ying had already passed out from sheer terror.

Chen Mo splashed water on her to wake her up, then asked with a look of deep concern, "Are you alright? Why did you faint?"

Combining the horrific scene from moments ago with his current expression, Guan Ying felt certain that the man before her was an absolute psychopath. She almost fainted again.

"I’m really sorry. You know, I raise a lot of pigs. If I don’t feed them for a while, they whine from hunger, which is really annoying." Chen Mo leaned in close to her face. "But it’s fine now. I just fed them, so they shouldn’t be that hungry anymore."

"What... what exactly do you want to do?"

"What do I want to do?" At this Time, Chen Mo acted like a complete madman. The Yun Qing Sword in his hand effortlessly sliced through her snow-white chest, and blood began to flow steadily from the wound. "Let’s play a game, shall we?"

"A... game?" Guan Ying trembled violently. Her psychological defenses had completely crumbled.

"Yes. I ask, you answer. If you answer wrong, or if I’m not satisfied, I’ll randomly slice off a piece of your flesh and feed it to them. How does that sound?"

At this Time, Chen Mo felt like a major villain—evil and cruel. But these were enemies who had come to assassinate him. To show mercy to an enemy was to be cruel to oneself! Chen Mo was someone who cherished his own life, so how could he possibly be cruel to himself? Therefore, his only option was to be cruel to others.

"I... I..."

"What is your name?" Chen Mo asked, not giving her a chance to choose. The game had already begun.

"Guan Ying."

"Right, right, right, exactly like that. Second question: who sent you?"

"I came on my own."

"I’m not very satisfied with that answer." As he spoke, Chen Mo traced the blade of the Yun Qing Sword lightly over her body. "Which piece should I cut off first?"

Guan Ying gritted her teeth and squeezed her eyes shut.

"Let’s go with the ears. One on each side. No, no, no, let’s do the nose. People say that cutting off a nose makes someone look especially ugly. Actually, never mind. Let’s start with your chest. Since you’re a woman, cutting that off will definitely be quite thrilling..."

Chen Mo’s casual muttering completely shattered her final shred of resistance.

"Jinling... Marketplace... Jiang... Jiang Lei! I am... his woman."

"Jinling Marketplace?" Chen Mo frowned. "I haven’t offended you people, have I?"

"It’s Song Yunxi. Song Yunxi dumped Spirit Yellow Rice seeds into our Marketplace and two others at a price of four taels per catty. We investigated and found out that the Breeder behind him is you."

Guan Ying blurted out the entire cause and effect in one breath. Chen Mo was so dumbfounded that he let out a chuckle! Just as he thought, his big brother hadn’t listened to him at all.

"So, what you’re saying is that you didn’t dare retaliate against him, so you came to kill me instead?"

Guan Ying nodded.

"Not bad, not bad. You answered these few questions quite well."

"Then can you..."

"The game continues." Chen Mo smiled faintly. "What is your relationship with Yan Ronglin?"

"We originally planned to spend five Spirit Stones to use him. He was supposed to trick you into going to a specific location, deceive you into drinking poisoned wine, and then wait for an opportunity to kill you."
