He was hacked to death! Reborn and married to the Grand Secretary, his family wept with regret.

Below, the remnants of the python king's gang did not rush to kill, but they beat and scolded the children. The children's cries rose and fell, which was heartbreaking.

Immediately afterwards, a child was heard crying and cursing: "An Wuyang, how cruel you are!"

"You're so afraid of death, you don't deserve to be my mother!"

It was Rean; his voice was extremely shrill, so he must be terrified.

"I hate you, now get down here!"

"Mother, please come and save me..."

Because Rean revealed his identity, he caught the attention of the leader of the Python King's remaining gang.

"You're actually An Wuyang's son?"

"it is good!"

"I'll start by cutting you up. First, I'll chop off your arms and legs, then I'll slowly gouge out your nose and eyes!"

Upon hearing such a horrifying description, Rean immediately knelt down.

"No, please, please let me go!"

"I am not An Wuyang's son. That woman is a coward, utterly shameless, and unworthy to be my mother! Please, please let me go!"

Rean kowtowed desperately to the other party, still not understanding what had happened and why he had been brought here to be killed!

He had just been listening to his great-grandmother and grandmother talk about how his mother was a maidservant of a certain sage.

He felt a surge of joy, thinking that since his mother had a higher status, he could leverage that advantage in the future.

But the next moment, someone covered his mouth and dragged him out.

In a daze, he seemed to see his beloved Aunt Qingfan. He thought he would be moved to a safe place, so he didn't make a sound. But how did he suddenly end up in such a terrifying place?

Could it be that he misread it just now?

Rean felt increasingly aggrieved. He must have been mistaken. Aunt Qingfan would never harm him!

Thinking of this, Rean's hatred for An Wuyang intensified.

He looked up at the city wall and roared, "Mother!"

"Are you deaf? How can you not hear what I'm saying at all?"

"Come down and apologize! Come back and switch me with you! Otherwise, I'll die..."

Inside the city walls, upon hearing Li En's voice from outside the city, the old woman of the Li family and Madam Wang were also thrown into a panic.

"En'er? En'er is missing? En'er was among those children?"

"That damned An Wuyang, he actually caused En'er to be led into the bandit camp?"

The old lady's legs immediately gave way, and she collapsed to the ground.

"What should I do? What should I do?"

No matter what, Li En is now their only grandson in the Marquis's mansion. They can't ignore En'er's safety. What should they do?

What can they do to save Rean?

Oh, right, An Wuyang! Naturally, we'll force An Wuyang to submit!

Wang immediately took the lead in shouting, "Where is An Wuyang?"

"Get out of here!"

"You heartless woman, how can you bear to let an innocent child suffer for you?"

With someone taking the lead, the tense and sorrowful atmosphere among the crowd was immediately stirred up, and a series of curses entered An Wuyang's ears.

"Yes! What is that cowardly woman doing?"

"Why aren't you getting out of here?"

"Her life, that of a lowly woman, was exchanged for our child; she died a worthy death..."

"Isn't she able to donate medicine? Isn't she kind and principled? Why couldn't she die in place of our children?"

……

"Don't listen!"

Wen Jingnian pulled An Wuyang aside, afraid that An Wuyang wouldn't be able to bear hearing the increasingly vicious curses.

Although his expression remained calm, there was a hint of unexplained worry in his eyes.

"It doesn't matter!"

An Wuyang was calmer than Wen Jingnian had imagined. Instead, she smiled at Wen Jingnian and said, "This little thing is no problem for me!"

Wen Jingnian, however, abandoned his usual gentle demeanor in front of An Wuyang, and a rare hint of murderous intent flashed across his face.

“Madam An, this matter has nothing to do with you. You should return to the city immediately and wait for me at the City Lord’s Mansion!”

"Leave this to me, I'll definitely handle it!"

Without waiting for An Wuyang's reply, Wen Jingnian gave an order and directly commanded his men to take An Wuyang away.

"and many more!"

An Wuyang gave a soft rebuke, rejecting Wen Jingnian's kindness.

Then, An Wuyang walked up to Yan Juzhi and looked at him intently.

"Lord Yan, may I borrow your musket?"

The musket that was just seized from Luo Qingfan has been kept by Yan Juzhi.

Everyone probably thought that firearms were such a novel thing that no one but Luo Qingfan would know how to use them.

Little did they know that in his previous life, An Wuyang had already used a firearm with even greater power than this one.

Yan Juzhi's expression remained unchanged, maintaining a calm and composed demeanor, seemingly unconcerned even by the clamor of the Python King's remaining followers below.

Upon hearing about An Wuyang's musket, Yan Juzhi's eyes seemed to tremble slightly, but he quickly regained his composure.

"Get it!"

Without asking any further questions, he placed the musket directly into An Wuyang's hands.

An Wuyang then said, "Go and find me some sulfur, saltpeter, and charcoal!"
