Chapter 720 Kill Him

Perhaps there weren't tens of thousands, but certainly thousands.

Daniel teased with a grin, "Oh, White, what's this? Planning to chop me with that ax? That White Axe of yours looks mighty lethal. One swing and it would surely split me in half, right? That would be cruel beyond words. We have no grievances; do you really need to use such a barbaric method against me?"

White's only response to Daniel's ramblings was a cold sneer; he flicked his White Axe, exuding a sense of satisfaction. "Scared of my White Axe now, are you bumpkin? Afraid that I'll chop you into two? Where's all that cockiness from before? You fancied yourself brave enough to challenge my brother and me alone. Feeling fear now, huh?

If you're scared, show some sincerity and grovel before me on the ground! Beg for mercy! If you do, I promise to spare your life. At most, I'll just chop off one of your arms."

As soon as White finished speaking, Smart jumped in eagerly, "Merely chopping off one arm of this loudmouth isn't enough. He's so pompous, not even sparing a thought for me, Smart. At the very least, you should chop off one of his legs too! Which leg? Well..."

Scratching his head, Smart added, "Leave the two longer ones alone, but that third leg, he definitely won't be needing that. After all, what's a country bumpkin gonna do with it? Better off chopping off that third leg!"

Down, as the heir of The Perkins, heartily agreed with Smart's proposal. Despite his status, neither Beauty, Victoria, nor even Jessica paid him any attention, but all three women were drawn to Daniel, which irked him greatly.

"Nodding in agreement, Down added, "Smart's right; follow his instructions, White. Give this bumpkin a good lesson! Show him his place and that he belongs where all bumpkins belong. The daughters of the eight major families are not for the likes of him to pursue."

Daniel, hearing all this, couldn't help but replace their conversation amusing. Being the clever man he was, he knew exactly what Down was thinking.

With a chuckle, Daniel asked, "So Down, you want White to chop off my third leg. That's quite a long one, akin to a horse's. Are you so envious of me that you resort to ruining me, since despite being who you are, neither Beauty nor Victoria gives you the time of day, yet they're willing to hang out with me?

Do you understand why they prefer my company? It's because I'm pure and faultless; I harbor no ill intentions towards them. Even if we're together all day, I wouldn't dream of doing anything wrong."

Daniel's clever retort spotlighted Down's jealousy and malicious intent, all while maintaining an air of innocuousness that made him even harder to attack.
