Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 538: Whipping

Tian Wen looked at her smile, which was similar to the one he had when he first met her. He was touched and could not help but walk closer to her. A warm breeze blew and he was intoxicated for a moment again. However, this time he was only intoxicated by her. He could not help it, and the faint light in his heart did not become brighter. He smiled and said, "The wind here is also warm, probably because you are here."

Le Yu said: "The wind is warm because it also heard what you just said."

Before Tian Wen could say the next word, he suddenly heard a scream in the distance and looked over there.

Le Yu also looked back in the direction of the sound, and saw a young man who looked very powerful whipping a white-haired old man with a whip.

The old man had been beaten to the ground, and the young man was still beating him with the whip. Every time the whip hit the old man, he screamed, and the sound of the scream became smaller and smaller.

Le Yu rushed over without thinking too much. In the process, she almost shouted "Stop!" But suddenly she remembered Lian Boyuan's instructions. She thought that just saying hello would make the young man stop, so she didn't say "Stop!" directly. Instead, she waved her hand and shouted "Hey" to the young man a few times.

Tian Wen also followed.

When the young man saw Le Yu greeting him, he really stopped whipping and called out respectfully, “Le Yueyang!”

When Le Yu got closer to the old man, he saw that his face was full of wrinkles, blood was flowing from the corners of his mouth, and he was dying.

Le Yu asked, "Why did you whip him?"

At this time, Tian Wen also arrived beside the old man, and the young man called out respectfully again: "Tian Yueyang!"

Tian Wen didn't like the name "Yueyang", but he couldn't show it, so he said "hmm", and then asked: "What happened?" "He was clumsy and slow at work today, and his efficiency was low! The efficiency of the Tiecang tribe is dragged down by people like him! He deserves a beating, I will teach him a lesson! Not only can he not do his job well, but he vomited blood after just a few kicks, so I will use a whip instead!"

The white-haired old man said, "My illness recurred this morning...so...so..." He didn't finish his words and stopped moving.

Le Yu put his hand under the old man's nose to test it, and his heart sank. He said to the young man, "He's not breathing. You beat him to death."

Tian Wen said: "He died so soon?"

She thought the young man would be shocked after killing someone, but he showed no fear. He also put his hand under the old man's nose and found that the old man was indeed no longer breathing. He said, "Yes, he must be dead. I killed another slave who lowered the overall efficiency. It can be regarded as a contribution to the Tiecang tribe."

"Slave?" Le Yu said.

"Yes! Le Yueyang, Tian Yueyang, look!" said the young man, and then he raised one of the old man's hands and fiddled with his fingers, so that his nails were pointing in the direction of Le Yu and Tian Wen.

Le Yu saw that the old man's hands were not only covered with wrinkles, but also had many scars, and the blue nails were particularly eye-catching at this moment.

When Tian Wen saw the old man's blue nails, he said indifferently, "So he is a blue-armored man. I should have guessed it earlier, seeing how you beat him so recklessly."

"Yes, otherwise I would have said he was a slave! If it were someone from Tiecang, how could I have beaten him like this! Besides, there aren't many people in Tiecang who would do their job poorly and ask for a beating!" said the young man who beat the old man to death.
