Seeing the innkeeper back down, the group became even more arrogant, their voices Yuelai louder and louder. Many customers left the Restaurant before finishing their meals.
Soon.
The once bustling Restaurant now only has four or five tables occupied.
Just then, one of the five pointed at Su Chen and his two companions in the corner and shoved the burly man next to him.
"Brother, look, there are two stunning beauties over there."
Upon seeing this, the burly man immediately looked towards the corner. When he saw Witch Ancestor and Mu Xin, his eyes suddenly became incredibly ardent. He picked up the wine pot and Past towards Su Chen's table.
"Hello, little beauty."
The burly man feigned politeness, a friendly smile on his face, but the Evil in his eyes was impossible to hide. "Could I buy you a drink, just as a way of making friends?"
The other four also came up, their smiles somewhat malicious.
Mu Xin frowned slightly, her eyes Mi Man with murderous intent. Just as she was about to make a move, Su Chen stopped her. According to the laws of the Great Qian Empire, killing people was not allowed here.
Since we're already here, we should respect local customs and follow the rules.
Su Chen turned to look at the burly man, then said with a smile, "Get lost!"
The burly man's smile vanished instantly, and he stared intently at Su Chen: "Kid, are you talking to me?"
Su Chen nodded. "Yeah, good-for-nothing."
"..."
The few remaining people in the Restaurant fell silent. Su Chen looked so kind, yet his words were so... arrogant.
A terrifying ferocity suddenly erupted in the burly man's eyes, and the stench of blood grew even stronger, making him look rather frightening.
"Kid, are you looking for death?!"
The four people around him immediately surrounded Su Chen, as if they were about to attack at any moment.
Mu Xin looked at Su Chen with some oddness. She didn't understand why Su Chen hadn't dealt with these little Karami yet, but she continued to watch.
Su Chen covered his nose, his expression full of disgust. "Are you a pig butcher? There's such a strong smell of blood."
Forehead.
The others in the Restaurant were stunned again. These five people didn't look like someone to be trifled with; how dare they say such things? Were they really not afraid of getting into trouble?
Su Chen continued, "Can you move aside? This smell is disgusting. Why are you all surrounding me? And glaring at me? Go ahead and hit me!"
As Su Chen spoke, he leaned his face in close, looking like he was asking for a beating.
Damn it!
The burly man clenched his fists tightly, wishing he could kill Su Chen with a single punch, but he didn't bring himself to do it. His expression was somewhat ferocious, as if he was trying his best to suppress his anger.
Especially when Su Chen's face came Past, the veins on her neck bulged.
"Tch, coward."
Seeing that they didn't dare to make a move, Su Chen sat down again and started eating.
Mu Xin looked at them strangely. Why didn't they dare to make a move?
The burly man took a deep breath. "Fine, fine, you just wait."
With that, he turned to leave.
According to the Great Qian Law, assaulting another person and causing minor injury is punishable by ten years in prison, while causing serious injury is punishable by five hundred years in prison, and a fine will also be imposed.
If someone accidentally kills someone, there are two punishments: if it is a malicious murder, it is the death penalty; if it is an accidental murder, the length of imprisonment is determined according to different levels of criminal responsibility.
Accidental homicide can vary depending on the circumstances. For example, if someone kills another person unintentionally in self-defense, they will not be held accountable. This "accident" refers to a fight where someone accidentally kills the other person.
Although they won't be executed, they'll be imprisoned until they die.
It's actually more painful than a direct execution.
When the others in the Restaurant saw that the burly man really didn't cause any trouble, they all raised their eyebrows slightly, their eyes filled with strange looks. These five people looked vicious, but in reality, they seemed to be nothing special.
Mu Xin asked curiously, "Husband, what's going on?"
According to her understanding, these people would definitely make a move next, but Mu Xin sensed that there seemed to be an invisible force restraining them, preventing them from taking action.
Su Chen asked with a smile, "Did you encounter Blue Star back then?"
Blue Star?
Mu Xin nodded immediately, but then she suddenly realized something. "The law?"
Back then, Blue Star had many countries, each with its own laws. Crime was very rare, and the country was peaceful and prosperous.
Su Chen smiled and nodded, "That's right."
"The Great Qian Empire was nurtured by me and has its own laws, which are strictly enforced. Therefore, these people dare not take action, because if they do, they will face severe punishment."
He had long seen through it; these people were nothing but paper tigers.
They may look fierce on the surface, but they are actually cooks in a Lineage. The reason they smell so bloody is because they do the lowest job of a cook.
That involves tasks such as killing Demon Beast and cleaning up.
So he was covered in the smell of blood.
Mu Xin understood; so that's how it is.
Because of this incident, when the burly men were settling their bill, they insisted that the shopkeeper give them a discount of 200 Spirit Stones. The shopkeeper was naturally unwilling, but the burly men started to act like scoundrels. In the end, the shopkeeper had no choice but to give them a discount of 100 Spirit Stone.
Even if the Sky Patrol Division arrests these shameless individuals, they will likely only receive a reprimand and education, and will not be convicted of any serious crimes.
He really had no choice but to deal with this kind of scoundrel.
In the following days, Su Chen took the Witch Ancestor for a stroll, letting her adapt to the rhythm and rules of this world, since her strength was devastating to the Xuanhuang Realm.
Therefore, Su Chen did not want her to affect the world.
The Witch Ancestor was also very sensible, repeatedly assuring her that he would never mess around and would definitely abide by the rules of this world.
Su Chen let her go and have fun on her own, while he took Mu Xin to explore the Xuanhuang Realm. It has to be said that compared to the jungle law and the life-or-death struggle of the Myriad Worlds, this place was simply a breath of fresh air.
Here, everyone lives in peace and contentment. Although there are still Demonic Cult and some wicked people, they are extremely rare, and most people can live peacefully.
The tranquility here was something Mu Xin thoroughly enjoyed; she loved this peaceful world.
Here, there's no need for fighting or killing; you can simply experience life.
"Husband, after you're done with your business, shall we stay here?"
As the sun set, their shadows stretched long. Mu Xin leaned on Su Chen's shoulder, gazing into the distance with hope in her eyes.
Although Su Chen had never told her what he was capable of, Mu Xin knew that he must have his own things to do.
"Good."
Su Chen's tone was firm; he, too, was looking forward to this day.
