Saint Jalmack replied, "Her husband gave her to me. Of course, Stelly wanted me to put in a good word for him with the higher-ups! Besides, we're Celestial Nobles. It's only right that they serve us."
At the mention of his status, Saint Jalmack's face showed an undisguised sense of superiority.
Without a word, Ye Chen slapped him again. The blow spun Saint Jalmack around three times, and he howled like a pig being slaughtered.
"What are you so smug about? Celestial Nobles, my ass. You're a bunch of useless trash. Here's something to remember: you Celestial Dragons are grasshoppers in autumn. You won't be hopping around much longer."
Even if Ye Chen did nothing, the Revolutionary Army would not let them off.
For the poor to rise up and be free, the Celestial Dragons had to be brought down completely.
As for why Stelly had offered a woman to Saint Jalmack, he had not actually intended to give Sally Nantokanette away. He had only wanted Saint Jalmack to put in a good word for him. But Saint Jalmack had no interest in gold or jewels. The moment he saw Sally Nantokanette, his eyes lit up, and he demanded that she spend the night with him. Anyone else would have refused. Stelly agreed without a second thought.
Last time, Stelly had tried to capture Dadan and hand her over to the Celestial Dragons, but someone had rescued her on the way. Little Zhuge had been deeply displeased with him over it.
Stelly was an ambitious man. Becoming king of the Goa Kingdom would never be enough for him. He could not bear being ignored by the Celestial Dragons, and he would sacrifice anything to curry favor with them.
After hearing the whole story, Ye Chen sneered inwardly. Stelly was scum.
