“It’s the reason why I have these girls outside… Someone stole a locket, and I couldn’t find out which concubine did it… Hence, I had all of them bow in the rain…”
“You know best father,” Qui Zhou stood up, giving him a hug with a hidden frown. “I’m sorry I took so long to return from the brothel… I had quite a fun time with two ladies tonight…”
“Oh, no wonder why you look like you just got married!” Qui Kang said, “IT’s a shame I didn’t make you with one of these women! The brightest one of my sons had to be a bastard!”
“You honor me too much father,” Qui Zhou said, spitting in disgust. “However, these women are going to make the front lawn dirty… Get them out of here before the plants suffer…”
“You’re too kind, Qui Zhou… It will be the death of me one day,” Qui Kang clapped his hands, causing the women to run back into the mansion. “Come.. It’s time I show you the gang member I caught… His life is hanging from a thread right now… can’t wait to show you…”
“Yes father…”
Chapter 3: Hand
Quill Mansion, Punishment room
“This is Lin chan… One of the four leaders of the Harem Gangs… Qui Zhui… It’s a shame that he used to be a noble before we stripped him of his title. Have you heard of him before?” Qui Kang turned towards Qui Zhou… “He had it all but lost it because he fell in love with a dream.”
“Never seen this filth before father,” Qui Zhou shook his head, walking directly up to Lin Chan as he spun on a hook. “However, why are you keeping him alive? Why let him suffer?”
“You’re acting like you pity him. Never pity those who’ve stolen from you. If you don’t learn how to make someone truly suffer, you’ll never be able to tame a woman… let alone run a province!”
“Father… I’m just a bastard…” Qui Zhui said, trying his hardest not to look at Lin Chan. “If you really want me to have the throne, you’re going to suffer in the heavens because of it.”
“I’m not scared of the heavens… I’m scared of these gangs taking control of our city… If we don’t have the poor to take advantage of, the heavens would choose indiscriminately between all of us. It’s for our own good…”
“I completely understand… It’s for that reason you sent my mother to the mines right?” Qui Zhui said nonchalantly. “If you didn’t do that… what would’ve happened to me?”
“It’s not that simple. I still remember your mother’s favorite flowers, her face… the beautiful smile she put on when you were born. I did it because she was worth nothing and had no talent besides a pretty face.”
“You are wise, father,” Qui Zhui said, preparing to walk out of the room. “What is going to happen to him now… this Lin whatever… are you going to kill him?”
“No…” Qui Kang poked Lin Chan… He had a blind fold on his mouth in the dark room.
Blood was dripping off the walls, and the air was moist from the torturer lashing him over and over.
With the moon barely making it through the barred windows, Qui Kang pulled out a sword and looked over at Qui zhu.
“I’m going to remove one of his hands and send him back out into the world. You get to choose one hand.” Qui Kang looked at him with a sense of disgust on his pride. “I hate touching such filth… now… left or right?”
“It’s simple isn’t it father? Take his left hand so he can’t wipe his ass… I heard it’s a curse to wipe your ass with your right hand…” Qui Zhui laughed at the same time his eyes slightly watered.
Lin Chan closed his eyes as Qui Kang grabbed his arm and laughed before quickly swiping down with his sword.
Countless other prisoners in the cells shrieked as blood burst into their cages.
Qui Zhui didn’t see them until turning around. Three of Lin Chan’s harem members were shrieking as Lin Chen’s blood covered their skin.
They dropped onto their knees with tears falling out of their eyes, looking on in disbelief as blood oozed out of Lin Chan’s arm.
“Son, we do need gangsters for this city… However, this is a warning to you, Lin Chan… If I find you stepping into noble territory again, I’m going to chop off your dick next… Now… escort him out son and take two of his girls with him. The other one… I’m going to keep! She’s going to be my new bitch for you not knowing your place!”
“NOOOO!” Lin Chan shouted, tears mixing with his blood. “You can take my other hand… Please… don’t take any of them from me…”
“It’s not that I want to take them… In order to be a firm ruler, I must properly punish people who disobey the law… However, son… what do you think? Should I let him take all three?”
“It…. It’s not my place to decide father… Such scum will only learn through suffering…. I say take two of his girls… and give both of them to me…”
Slap!
Qui Kang slapped Lin Chan on the face before he could once again mutter a complaint.
“Good son… You’re learning how to be cruel… However, I’m going to be sticking with what I originally said… Take two girls and leave the other one for me… Lin Chan… I hope you don’t die of blood loss.”
Lui Chan angrily yelled as a few maids came and put some salt on his wound… bandaging his arm before Qui Zhui took him outside.
Lui Chan sobbed as two girls tried their best to help him up.
Qui Zhui had took him outside on his father’s behest. However, his father remained behind in the prison cell with the other girl.
When they left, screaming could be heard out of Mao Fen’s mouth. She’s been a supplier in Lui Chan’s harem. Her dad even started tearing off her clothes as Qui Zhui walked Lui Chan out of the mansion.
“Please… please stop your father…” Lui Chan said, whispering as he tried to hold back his tears. “He’s… he’s going to rape one of the women I love, Zhui… please… please save her…”
“I’ll see what I can do… However, if you keep talking to me the guards are going to catch on… Now GET OUT OF HERE YOU LITTLE SHIT!”
Lui Chan stumbled off with his two women…
The Rain once again started to pour down, and a lady came over to Qui Zhou with an umbrella. Her pristine face showed she was a lady of nobility, and the red ouroboros on her wrist showed she was part of the Quill family.
“it’s a true pity father made you help him again…” The lady said, walking next to him in a blue amber dress.. “Lui Chan was only trying to save a beggar from getting killed… He’s acting like that deserved him losing a hand.”
“Sister… you must learn to treat shit like shit and gold like gold,” Qui Zhui spit on the ground. “without that distinction… remember both of us could be in the mines!”
“Yes brother, but… stop screaming at me! Why do you seem so angry and sad if you don’t care?”
“I just care that he got blood on my favorite shirt,” Qui Zhui said, tears coming out of his eyes. “Now… sister… I hope you’re not saying that because you secretly pity gangsters… Stay away from them at all costs… remember…”
“Of course, brother… I love father with all my heart… I’d never betray him.”
“Good, because I’ll never forgive you if I see you talking to Tan Jin again…” Qui Zhou sighed and looked down. “Damn it! Now I’m going to have to remember this day forever because of this stain!”
With the rain falling down on his head, Qui Zhou kicked the dirt, laughing as his sister, Wen Wen… pushed him in the shoulder.
“come on… let’s go inside and get you changed…”
…
Qui Kang stared at Mao Fen as she shivered half naked inside of the cold cell. Her clothes had been removed except for her bra, two socks, and half of her underwear.
“You know… you smell like fish,” Qui Kang Said, brushing his hands through her hair. “I’ve always loved the smell of fish even though it reminds me of beggars…. Do you want to know why?”
“Because you’re really a pussy?”
Mao Fen retorted, “You like the smell of pussy because you are a coward… All the girls I talk to know it…”
“Heh… I like fish because my great grandfather was a fisherman. He was a fisherman until the day he found a treasure in the ocean. Because of that one treasure, he is now up in the city of the clouds…”
“It’s also why he was able to find my beautiful great grandmother, and it’s the reason why I’m born. I’ll never hate beggars, but that doesn’t mean I’ll treat you kindly…”
Qui Kang reached out and grabbed Mao Fen’s face, pulling her lips close to his before giving her a kiss on the cheek.
The room was completely dark except for the moonlight still sneaking in through the bars. Mao Fen grimaced as his hand slowly slid into her bra and started rubbing her breasts.
“I don’t understand… If you know your father was once a fisherman…. Why are you doing this to me… please… You’ll ruin me if you do this… Lin chen will never love me again…”
“You want to know the answer to your question?” Qui Kang pulled on a string around her body, making her bra fall off. “The truth of the matter is we’re all the same. We all take advantage of those who are beneath us at a given time…”
“However, people adjust to being above others… If I treated your Lin Chen fairly, or you fairly, what would happen to my position? Wouldn’t we all be poor… Then would I be able to take advantage of you like this?”
“Ugh…!” Mao Fen screamed as Qui kang turned her around and tore off her undergarments. Putting his hand against her round butt cheeks, he pulled her close to him as she started to shake more and more.
Her back was arched over as her hands were placed against the cold brick wall. Skeletons were on the floor next to her, with their jaw mandibles detached from their bodies.
Qui kang traced his finger towards her opening and stopped just short of entering her vagina.
“You… you have a very pretty body,” Qui Kang put his finger into her pussy, starting to finger her slowly. “However, I can tell Lin Chen has used you a lot… You must have really loved him right? I could tell you wanted to stay behind when I looked at you… It’s a shame your worth nothing to me.”
“Please… please just make it fast,” Mao Fen cried, feeling his hands rubbing against her back. “However, just know you’re not as big as Lin Chen…. Even a peddler can have a bigger dick than a noble.”
“Very funny… However, It’s still going to hurt,” Qui Kang pulled her by the hair, looking into her blue eyes as she bent backward with trembling lips and dilated eyes. “Guards… come here and take turns with her… I don’t like bitches with such quippy mouths… Congratulations, Mao Fen.”
“Ah!” Qui Kang tossed her onto the floor, wiping his finger on her back as he looked at her wretched but adorable body lithely shivering on the floor. “It’s a shame… My guards are poor… I guess that means for a girl like you, it will make you happy right?”
“Please… Please just let me go,” Mao Fen shivered by the wall. “I know you aren’t as bad as you seem… Please… my sisters need me…”
“Your sisters are just as smelly as you are…” Qui Kang sucked his finger, spitting after putting it in his mouth… A second later, he sighed as he walked out of the room. “It’s a shame they’ll all be dead by tomorrow… Guards… HURRY UP AND COME IN HERE! Free Fish!”
“Father!” Qui Zhui ran into the room by himself. “I was just with sister when I heard you calling… I already sent the guards to investigate something on the property… Is there anything I can do?”
“Yes, please have fun with the fish over here… I have some business to take care off…” Qui Kang smiled at her before waving and walking out of the room. “My son isn’t as kind as me,” Qui Kang said as he left. “Make sure she screams so I can hear you in the other room… It will help me sleep.”
“Yes father…” Qui Zhui half-bowed, watching his father walk out of the room.
….
Tan Jin returned from the Brothel after returning the Geisha to her house.
The night was still young, and he had much to do.
The girls on the streets were busy working, supplying nobles with a taste of pleasure. For that reason, many of the nobles respected the South District Harem except one.
The Han Family acted as the police and were at ‘war’ with the gangs. For everyone genius Tan Jin had, they had twenty. For every ounce of gold, they had two thousand ounces.
With the clouds of rain dissipating over Tan Jin’s head, he looked at a puddle noticing vibrations shaking it. Taking out his bamboo sword with a flash, he turned back as Lin Chen fell down and stumbled onto the cold hard pavement.
“Tan Jin! Tan Jin! Lin Chen’s Dying… His hand is infected!”
“I told him not to try and help that beggar… pass me to him… It’ll be impossible for him to weild a dual handed sword again, but at least I can make him a new hand.”
“Thank you Tan Jin! However, is the warehouse still safe? I thought the Han officers were going to come soon?”
“They are lazy and decided to wait two days… Qui Zhou already informed me of a conversation he overheard…” Tan Jin picked up Lin Chen. His pallid face had started to turn sallow. Green lines were traveling up his injured arm, and his veins had turned purple from blood poisoning.
“Heh, I’m sorry, Jin,” Lin Chen said, “I still don’t trust Qui Zhou… He may be your best friend, but he’s the reason I lost my hand.”
“He’s also the reason you probably kept the other one,” Tan Jin rubbed his head, rushing towards the warehouse. “Girls, can you explain to me exactly what happened. This idiot here is not allowed to talk.”
“We watched him get his hand chopped off… Qui Zhuo chose a hand… It’s not more complicated than that… However, he left Mao Fen behind! He started raping her as we left!”
“That bastard!” Tan Jin burst into the swinging doorway to his cold warehouse and immediately screamed“Water” as he placed Lin chen’s body down onto the white table next to a pillar. “Get me some medical sand immediately Lu Tu! Girls… we can talk about what happened later.”
….
Lin Chen awoke three hours later.
He felt a strange feeling on his left wrist, a hand made out of sand had been placed on his body.
This was medical sand, and Inscriptionists used them for healing.
An Inscriptionist was an individual with the ability to turn lines into power. They used the enrichment of Spiritual Qi in the air and harnessed it into those lines.
Spiritual Qi was a magical phenomenon in the air that allowed humans to transcend mortality and climb all the way to the heavens.
It allowed for Lin Chen to move his hand again, albeit, without the same sensations he used to experience.
“Ugh, did I vomit on myself?” Lin Chen laughed as he got off the bed, “Tan Jin… You really didn’t have to make it so perfectly.”
“Shut up and get some rest,” Tan Jin said, patting him on the forehead. “I’m going to need to Have you rest for the next few days… Girls… make sure you dual cultivate with him every night. His body needs to recharge.”
“Better than ice cream.. right ladies?” Lin Chen smiled, turning back as he tried to hide the pain… “Wait, where’s Mao Fen… That bastard has to die!”
Smack!
Tan Jin slammed the table down hard before picking up Lin chen’s face. “Enough! If you just followed what I told you, we’d have all of your girls, and wouldn’t have the Han officers coming here in a few hours! You were sleeping for an entire day! However, I already received word that Mao Fen wasn’t violated… well… not much anyway..”
