The strongest devouring system in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 354 Show off your power

Chen Er laughed and nodded: "That's right. No matter what, you are my subordinate. Now a mere scoundrel dares to threaten you. He deserves to die. So how many lashes he should be given is up to you."

These words made Wang Dawei's expression twist, and he wanted nothing more than to rush up and beat Chen Er up. Only now did Wang Dawei realize which killer he had offended today. Several people went up and pinned the struggling Wang Dawei to the ground. Han Zi raised the heavy wooden board in his hand and slammed it down.

Each slap was enough to tear Wang Dawei's skin and flesh. Zhao Tianming was a little dumbfounded and didn't even have the courage to look Chen Er in the eye. If he had known that Chen Er was so difficult to deal with, Zhao Tianming wouldn't have dared to come.

Especially now, when Zhao Tianming saw the smiles that Chen Er was intentionally or unintentionally showing him, his heart couldn't help but twitch several times.

Zhao Tianming hid directly behind Zhao Beixing, his feelings indescribable.

"Sir, are you just going to watch Chen Er flaunt his power in front of you? No matter what, your official rank is higher than Chen Er's. How can you allow Chen Er to hit Wang Dawei? How am I supposed to be on friendly terms with Wang Dawei after this?"

Zhao Tianming spoke his mind, only to be met with a glare from Zhao Beixing.

“Brother, I’ve always told you to stay away from these kinds of people, but you just won’t listen. You still want to be sworn brothers with Wang Dawei. You should just pray that you’ll be safe and sound.”

Zhao Beixing's voice was rather strange, which made Zhao Tianming even more frightened, and he couldn't help but nervously ask.

"What exactly do you mean? Do you think Chen Er would dare to lecture me in front of you? I don't believe it. Today, you must protect my safety no matter what."

Zhao Beixing sighed helplessly, "Although I allow you to associate with Wang Dawei, can your relationship still be this close?"

"Now look what's happened. Wang Dawei got beaten up, and Chen Er's fate is probably unimaginable. As a favorite of Wei Zhongxian, Sun Yunhe won't let Chen Er off easily either. Let's just wait and see what happens in this show."

Zhao Beixing understood that Chen Er had now completely offended him. Not only the Eastern Depot, but he had even offended Zhao Beixing himself. So now Zhao Beixing wanted to see how Chen Er would handle the situation.

Time passed, and even Wang Dawei was exhausted, having been knocked unconscious countless times.

Just then, a cry for justice suddenly came from outside the door again, which made Chen Er feel a little helpless. Could it be that as a new official, he would have to deal with even more cases today?

Before long, Ma Dazhi brought the woman who had cried out for justice to the courtroom. When the man sitting in the seat saw the woman, he was shocked. The old man staggered and immediately ran to the woman, asking her in great surprise.

"Xuelian, what are you doing here? Didn't I tell you to go back to your hometown and hide? Wang Dawei's men are looking for you right now."

This woman is the old man's daughter-in-law, named Wang Xuelian. At this moment, the clothes she is wearing are all tattered and she smells bad. It seems that she has been tormented recently.

"Dad, I've been bullied. Last night, Wang Dawei and his men forcibly broke into my yard and raped me. I don't want to live anymore."

Wang Xuelian's words were a blow to the old man, making his face even uglier. He never expected that Wang Dawei would actually do something so outrageous. So the old man looked directly at Chen Er.

"Sir, did you hear that? My daughter-in-law was bullied! You must stand up for us! It's not about punishing her anymore, we need to skin this bad guy alive!"

After the old man finished speaking, he snatched Ma Dazhi's knife, intending to kill Wang Dawei. However, he was stopped by Zhao Tianming, who was standing to the side. At this moment, Zhao Tianming's expressionless face began to twitch as he grabbed the old man's wrist.

"You old codger, it's none of your business to interfere now. If you don't want to die, get out of here right now, or I'll make you regret it later."

No matter what, Wang Dawei was Zhao Tianming's friend. He couldn't just stand by and watch Wang Dawei kill this old man. Besides, it was just bullying a woman. He didn't deserve to die. Before Chen Er could speak, Zhao Beixing suddenly spoke up.

"Chen Er, I feel that this old man has some mental issues. No matter what, there are officials here to stand up for them. How can they be allowed to act like bullies here? I think this old man should be given a good beating."

Upon hearing Zhao Beixing's suggestion, Chen Er burst into laughter: "You mean to give that old man a few lashes? Well, I think you're the same way! How about I give both of you a few lashes each?"

"That old man is frail and sickly, and now his daughter-in-law has been bullied by this scoundrel Wang Dawei, and you actually want to beat up the victim? Have you lost your mind?"

Chen Er's words were neither warm nor cold, but when Zhao Beixing heard them, they immediately caused a surge of anger to appear on his face, a stark contrast to the usually mild-mannered Zhao Beixing.

"I never expected that you, Chen Er, would have grown so powerful and dare to speak to me like that. I misjudged you back then. If I had known you were such a wolf in sheep's clothing, I shouldn't have said so many nice things to you in front of the Emperor. Now you dare to shit and piss on my head. Have you lost your heart?"

Chen Er immediately ordered Ma Dazhi to quickly bring over a basin of cold water and pour it over Wang Dawei's head.

Wang Dawei was about to speak when he felt as if his whole body had been torn apart. When had Wang Dawei, a rich young man, ever suffered such humiliation? He gritted his teeth and glared at Chen Er.

"This is the first time in my life I've suffered so much. You better remember this: unless you kill me today, or give me even a sliver of hope, I will not only strip you of your official robes, but I will also make your entire family pay with their lives."

Wang Dawei's words were very sinister, making everyone sigh with a sense of awe, considering the power of Wang Dawei's family and the fact that Sun Yunhe was backing him up.
