After being demoted, my 300,000-strong army trampled the imperial city!

"Murder! Someone stop this little slut!"

"Waaah, Sanya, stop chasing! Grandma knows she was wrong—"

In the fields, the old woman ran and howled, and seeing excrement and urine flowing from her forehead and face into her mouth was extremely disgusting.

Chen Futu, Lian Nishang, and the villagers all stared at this comical scene with bewilderment, but no one stepped forward to stop it.

Some villagers mocked, "The old woman got her comeuppance. She used to torment Sanya all the time, but now Sanya knows how to fight back. That's a good thing."

“That’s right. If she continues with her old, taciturn personality, Sanya will be tormented to death by the old woman sooner or later.”

“Sanya is quite pitiful. Her mother only gave birth to daughters, and as a result, her father beat her to death. The old woman then sold her two older sisters to pay off her gambling father’s debts. Now the old bastard wants to sell her too. He won’t give her any way to survive.”

"The village head should also do something about it; it would be much better if they separated their households."

Chen Futu learned about the peasant girl's situation through the villagers' discussions. What was most amusing was that despite all the evil deeds Li Pozi had committed, the villagers just watched helplessly as her granddaughter chased and attacked her, and not a single person went to help.

"Old Bi Deng, didn't you want to sell your old mother? Why are you running away?" San Ya brandished her knife fiercely and continued to chase after her, even clashing the blades together in a serious manner, making a rustling sound that made Old Lady Li even more terrified. She ran like a whirlwind. "San Ya, Grandma knows she was wrong. Please let Grandma go, and our family will treat you well from now on!"

"Scream, scream, scream louder—"

Sanya's laughter was like a demonic sound.

Old Lady Li was still in shock when she saw the villagers gathered in front of the Zhao family's house. She rushed over at the top of her lungs, but before she could get close, Chen Futu flicked his finger, and a gust of wind shot out. The old woman screamed and fell to the ground. Sanya caught up and stepped on her spine, then fiercely raised her knife to strike.

"Sanya, stop!"

The village head finally came to his senses and hurriedly shouted.

Sanya's swords froze in mid-air. Seeing so many people, her eyes darted around, and she dropped her swords, collapsed to the ground, and began to cry, "Waaah, I'm so miserable! I can't live in this family anymore. I do hard labor all day long, get beaten and scolded, and they don't even give me a bite to eat. My mother was beaten to death long ago, and my two older sisters were sold off. Now the Li family wants to sell me too! How am I supposed to live like this!"

To be honest, Sanya's acting was quite good. Her heartfelt crying, delivered at a high pitch, combined with her frail little body, was truly moving and brought tears to the eyes of anyone who saw or heard it.

The village head reassured her, "Don't worry, Sanya. This time, your grandpa will stand up for you. Let's see if the Li family dares to sell their granddaughter again!"

"That's right, village head, drive that wicked old woman from the Li family out of our village!"

"One rotten apple spoils the whole barrel; it's ruined the whole village's morals!"

When the village head stepped forward, the villagers began to condemn her, hurling nasty insults. This was mainly because Chen Futu, a distinguished outsider, was present, and Li Laotai's behavior was undoubtedly tarnishing the village's reputation.

Seeing everyone's criticism, Old Lady Li was both shocked and furious. For some reason, she retorted, "What business is it of yours if I sell my granddaughter? You're all just meddling in other people's business!"

"Since that's the case, let's all just die and go to hell together—"

Enraged, Sanya grabbed a knife, kicked the other person to the ground, and pressed the back of the knife against the other person's neck, pulling it back and forth.

"Ahhhh!"

This move terrified Old Lady Li so much that she screamed and fell over.

"Wow, awesome."

Before Chen Futu transmigrated, he had read stories of peasant girls going to ancient times and fighting against their relatives. The transmigrated woman in front of him was truly formidable, far more capable than those who only knew how to talk big.

Next, the village headman had someone splash Old Lady Li with water to wake her up, and made both parties sign a family division agreement on the spot. Sanya finally quieted down. Then, Old Lady Li, covered in excrement and urine, staggered away, not forgetting to glare fiercely at Sanya before she left, "You little hussy, when the men from the first and second wives come back, you'll be in for a beating!"

Sanya cut off the doctor's arm but did not leave. She curiously looked at the villagers and the supplies scattered on the ground, and finally her gaze fell on Chen Futu.

Of all the people in the village, Chen Futu and Lian Nishang possessed the noble and dignified air of the most outstanding individuals. As a transmigrated woman, she had the discernment to judge that.

While she was sizing up Chen Futu, Chen Futu was also sizing her up.

Their eyes met. Chen Futu smiled, while Sanya tilted her head, staring at the village head with her intelligent eyes, and asked inwardly, "Who are they? They seem to be very important figures?"

Li Zheng's expression darkened. "A distinguished guest from Blue City has come specifically to see Er Gou."

"Two dogs?"

Sanya scratched her head, her memories still merging.

Ding!

[The existence of a transmigrated woman has been detected. The system grants the host a special martial arts ability: telepathy.]

Is he telepathic?

[A martial arts technique specifically designed to target time-traveling women, capable of eavesdropping on their thoughts]

"This skill is good. I want to see what this fellow villager has to say."

Driven by curiosity, Chen Futu used his telepathic abilities and listened to Sanya's series of inner monologues.

"Holy crap! The original owner's memories show that this is actually a martial arts world!"

"I was about to stab the old woman with a knife. Will her son beat me to death?"

"Aaaaaah, System, come out now! Aren't all transmigrators supposed to have systems? Where are you, System?!"

"If the old woman really wants to sell me, I can't stop the martial artists from capturing me. I don't want to go to that kind of place!"

……

Chen Futu almost laughed out loud at Sanya's inner thoughts. However, after Sanya called out in her heart for a long time, the system did not appear. She stood there frozen, her thin face ashen. She seemed to realize the seriousness of the problem and ran home as fast as she could.

"Ni Chang, you wait here for Er Gou, I'm going to take a walk around the village."

After giving his instructions, Chen Futu turned and left.

The villagers dared not follow, but the unmarried girls' eyes lit up, and they wished they could stick close to him.

If they married into a wealthy family, they could rise to prominence and become phoenixes. Unfortunately, Chen Futu's interest was all in Sanya, and he had no time to care about them.

Chen Futu wandered around the village alone for a while, and then arrived at Sanya's house. Sanya also lived in a small fenced courtyard and thatched house, with a few old hens kept in the corner of the yard. Apart from that, the place was desolate.

Sanya was squatting under the jujube tree, lost in thought. When she saw Chen Futu arrive, she paused for a moment, then stood up and asked, "Is there something you need?"

"This is my first time in the village. I'm just out for a stroll and I'm a little thirsty. May I ask for a bowl of water?"

"Hold on."

Sanya was quite well-behaved at this moment. She ran to the kitchen to fetch a bowl of raw water. Chen Futu did not enter the yard, but took the broken bowl from her through the fence.

Chen Futu slowly drank his water, feeling Sanya's scrutinizing gaze, and at the same time, he heard her thoughts: "This guy is really handsome and well-dressed. He seems to be someone with influence. If I can get his help, maybe I won't have to worry about being captured by Mirror Heart Lake."
