Chapter 242 -242: Blocking the Way
After all five pieces of jade had been cut open, Zhong Niangyao looked towards Ai Lun and spoke, “Pick up the jade, let’s leave!”
The five pieces of jade cut open today were all top-grade jade with excellent water content. With these pieces, she could carve numerous talisman.
Her purpose for coming to Myanmar this time was achieved. Before returning to her country, she had no intention of visiting the Gambling Stone Market again.
Accompanied by Ai Lun, Zhong Niangyao headed in the direction of the exit.
However, they barely took a couple of steps before someone blocked their way.
“Miss,” the person who looked like a bodyguard said politely, “our master is very interested in you and would like to invite you to dinner. Please honor us with your presence.”

At this sight, Ai Lun was about to step forward to handle the situation, but Zhong Niangyao stopped him.
He didn’t know what Zhong Niangyao planned to do, but before they had left, the master had already instructed him to follow Lady Zhong’s arrangements. So since Lady Zhong did not want him to step forward, he stayed put.
Nonetheless, he watched the bodyguard cautiously and subtly surveyed the surroundings for any of the other party’s people. His hand had already reached his emergency contact device, and he was ready to call for help at the slightest sign of trouble.
Zhong Niangyao looked at the man with a faint smile on her face and a trace of nonchalance, “Oh, who is your master? I am not acquainted with him, and I’m not interested in obliging, what do you say?”
The bodyguard was clearly not expecting such a response, frowning before saying, “Miss, our master is from the Kong Family, one of the four great families of Myanmar. If he is willing to protect you, then you could even walk sideways around here if you wished.”
He didn’t believe that this woman would refuse after knowing the true identity of his master. There were countless people here who wished to curry favor with his master. If it weren’t for her extraordinary skills in gambling stones, this woman would not be in any position to choose.
“The Kong Family?” Zhong Niangyao tilted her head to think, then spoke indifferently, “Don’t know them, and I’m not interested either. So, I’m sorry, but I have no plans to dine with your master.”
“And also, you are blocking my way, move aside.”
After hearing Zhong Niangyao’s curt words, the bodyguard’s face soured, and he spoke with a hint of threat, “Miss, you are not from Myanmar, right? Outside of your home, even a mighty dragon cannot press a local snake! Besides, our master’s status, having him interested in you, is your good fortune.”
“Don’t refuse the toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit. You will regret it later and have nowhere to cry.”
“Oh, then you probably don’t understand me well enough.” Zhong Niangyao shrugged and a cold smirk formed on her lips, “I like to drink. However, I drink based on my mood, and not just any drink pleases me.”
Seeing Zhong Niangyao’s unyielding demeanor, the bodyguard lost his patience and stepped forward, “Then I must offend.”
With that, he reached out his hand, attempting to grab Zhong Niangyao.
Before Ai Lun could react, Zhong Niangyao dodged the bodyguard’s hand with a swift movement and a brazen smile lit up her face. She moved her hand non-stop and suddenly produced a piece of talisman paper, then stuck it directly onto the bodyguard’s right hand.
“Ah!”
A shrill scream pierced the sky, drawing the attention of the people around.
In fact, most people had already noticed when the bodyguard stopped Zhong Niangyao. However, knowing who he worked for, no one dared to interfere. After all, no matter how skilled Zhong Niangyao was, offending someone from the Kong Family for her sake was not worth it.
They thought that Zhong Niangyao would soon be taken away by the bodyguard, whether willingly or not, and that would be the end of it.
Things like this had happened many times before, but since the Kong Family was wealthy and influential, everyone was angry but dared not speak. They feared retribution and being the next one targeted.
However, nobody expected that Zhong Niangyao would not be taken away, and instead, it was the bodyguard who was now screaming.
Although they did not know what exactly Zhong Niangyao did, they could tell that the bodyguard was in excruciating pain. He clutched his right hand, letting out piercing cries, and now had even started rolling on the ground.
Just from the piercing screams, others could feel the torment the bodyguard was experiencing. Yet, no wounds could be seen on him.
No visible wounds, yet that was the most terrifying aspect. Visible harm can be treated, but the unseen is the scariest.
Ai Lun behind her was already stupefied. He had heard about Zhong Niangyao’s abilities from Uncle Li previously, but hearsay was not as shocking as what his eyes now witnessed.
Lady Zhong had caused the bodyguard excruciating pain with just a simple talisman. Such skill, other than the master, he had only seen in Lady Zhong.
No wonder Uncle Li and the others spoke of Lady Zhong with such respect!
Zhong Niangyao watched the suffering bodyguard with cold eyes, “Does it hurt? Have you ever thought about the pain of the people you’ve taken away in your bullying before?”
At that moment, all the bodyguard could feel was the agonizing pain in his right hand.
The pain was like his entire arm was being shattered and then reassembled over and over again. The worst part was, amidst such agony, his consciousness was exceptionally clear. He could feel every second of pain vividly.
Despite such agony, he could still clearly hear every word Zhong Niangyao said to him.
“I was wrong.” The bodyguard, resisting the excruciating pain, struggled to get up and knelt before Zhong Niangyao, “I know I was wrong, please let me go this once!”
Breaking a hand, he could endure that. But now, he really was suffering from continuous bone shattering pain. Such torment made him wish he could die right then to end it.
He knew well that the agonizing pain was inflicted by the woman before him, so now he could only beg her to spare him. Otherwise, he couldn’t take it much longer.
