Gu Qinghe curled her lips, thinking that since they had died once, there was no point in dying a good death. She increased the force of her hands and whispered in her ear, "I have climbed up from hell to drag you down. Do you believe that you will not survive this day?"

The gossip woman thought of the many handles she had on County Magistrate Wang and the high officials in the capital behind him, and was not frightened at all: "I don't believe you can't kill me!"

People in their line of work always keep some life-saving things in their hands.

Gu Qinghe knew what she was thinking. She smiled at the old woman and said, "You may not know yet, but yesterday the young master you mentioned cursed him to death in front of the King of Hell in Yandu. I guess your backer is very busy right now, and it's a question whether he remembers someone like you.

Seeing her confused look, Gu Qinghe said, "You don't know this. You must have heard of the Little King of Hell in Yandu. I started seeing him yesterday. He is so tall and strong that he can crush you to death with one hand. If he wants you to die at noon, can you live until the quarter after noon?"

Nanning Town belongs to Nanzhou. It was designated as the fiefdom of the current young prince by the late emperor eighteen years ago. It can be said that there is no one in the entire Nan area who does not know the title of the young prince.

A few years ago, news of the young prince's brutality spread from Yandu, and the people of the entire southern land felt chilled to the bone. They were wary of this little devil who had never met and was in charge of them, and they kept a distance from the people of Yandu even three miles away.

Later, when they heard that he was missing, and that he had failed in his bid for the throne and was secretly dealt with by the current emperor, their hearts gradually fell back into their chests.

Yesterday, the matchmaker was busy doing business in the village. When she came back, she was warned by her superiors not to take any action during this period. She didn't even have time to close the doors and windows, so how could she have time to find out what happened in the town.

At this time, the King of Hell, who had heard that he was trembling in his dreams at midnight, appeared and asked with trembling teeth, "Is this true? Are you not lying to me?"

Gu Qinghe led her to the front yard, his tone indifferent: "Even if I lied to you, so what? A human trafficker like you who has done so many evil things deserves death."

"They all came here voluntarily! I gave money to their families, and they gave me people. What did I do wrong?! I remember every detail clearly, and they did all kinds of bad things. Everything I did was innocent. I did nothing wrong. You can't kill me!"

The human tooth struggled under Gu Qinghe's hands, refusing to go to the front yard no matter what. He was unable to break free because his foot was bitten by the wolf cub. He argued harshly along the way: "You can't arrest me or kill me without evidence. Even if you are the county magistrate's brother, you can't say that!"

Gu Qinghe had a hard time holding her, so he simply stopped and looked at her coldly: "You did nothing wrong? The beggars from the slum who were forcibly taken away by you deserve to die? The two girls who disappeared yesterday after you bought them back deserve to die? Don't tell me that you did nothing wrong, that you can't and shouldn't die, because people like you are the ones who deserve to die the most in this world!"

Seeing her angry, the human trafficker calmed down. She sneered, "So you came here for those two girls. Why did you touch them? Did you feel so excited that you couldn't bear to let them go? Did you feel sorry for them? Did you want to save them and redeem them?"

"It's too late! I tell you, without me, they wouldn't have survived today! I advise you to be sensible and let me go! Otherwise, I——"
