"You gelded dogs!"
"How dare you?!"
Guo Zhang had barely shouted before a club struck him head-on. He fell screaming, but showed no fear and cursed at the top of his lungs.
Guo Zhang had no shortage of household slaves. Although this was not their main base, a family as great as theirs certainly had plenty of private property in Luoyang.
