The other two strong men from the grasslands, named Uliji and Batel, were both shocked and furious upon seeing this scene, and roared as they rushed forward at the same time.

Uliji threw a punch straight at Su Zhan's face, while Batel drew a short knife from his waist and viciously stabbed Su Zhan in the ribs.

The surrounding herders gasped in alarm; someone was about to be killed.

A hint of reluctance flashed in Mandu's eyes, but she was powerless to stop Batel now.

Upon seeing this, Lin Yu'er cried out in fright, "Husband, be careful!"

Su Zhan naturally saw Batel and Uliji's movements. He moved like a cheetah, dodging Uliji's fist by sidestepping. Then, he grabbed the other's wrist with his left hand like an iron clamp, twisted it in the opposite direction, and shifted his feet, narrowly avoiding Batel's short knife.

Immediately afterwards, Su Zhan swung the knife in his right hand upwards, and with a crisp crack, Batel's hand was twisted by Su Zhan's blow, and the short knife was knocked away by Su Zhan.

"Ah—! My hand!"

Batel clutched his obviously fractured hand and staggered back a few steps in pain. But Su Zhan didn't let him go. He immediately grabbed Batel's chest, swung him up like a sandbag, and slammed him towards Uliji, who was standing nearby.

With a loud "bang!", the two collided, instantly breaking bones and splinters, and howling in pain.

In the blink of an eye, Su Zhan had killed Batu, Batel, and Uliji, the three so-called strongmen of the grasslands. Two of them lay on the ground like dead dogs, while the other was sweating profusely and pale with pain. Although there was no blood, he was already seriously injured and unable to fight.

The surroundings were deathly silent, and the herders stared wide-eyed, unable to believe what they were seeing.

Although they had witnessed Su Zhan's fighting prowess inside the tent and experienced his methods in dealing with human traffickers, they never expected that Su Zhan would be so formidable against the strong men of the grasslands.

The smile on Mandu's face froze completely. She looked incredulous, her fat and thin bodies trembling uncontrollably, and she subconsciously took a step back.

Su Zhan ignored Batu, Batel, and Uliji, as these three were no longer a threat; he needed to deal with Mandu, the mastermind behind today's disturbance.

Su Zhan, carrying his knife, approached Mandu step by step. The tip of the knife dragged on the ground, making a grating rustling sound. Every step felt like stepping on Mandu's heart.

Mandu panicked a little, and said in a trembling voice, "Don't come any closer! If you dare touch me, my father will never let you get away with it!"

Mandu was clearly all bark and no bite, but he was still stubbornly defiant.

Su Zhan stopped three steps away from her and said to Mandu expressionlessly.

"Pick up the silver."

Mandu swallowed hard, finally refusing to argue with Su Zhan any longer. He bent down, grabbed the filthy cloth bag, and then staggered into the crowd.

Batu, Batel, and Uliji, who were behind Su Zhan, also scrambled and fled in all directions. Even Mandu had run away, so what were they left behind for?

The surrounding herders were completely silent, their gazes towards Su Zhan filled with awe.

The grasslands are a place where strength reigns supreme; those with strength, regardless of their status, are respected.

These herders no longer treat Su Zhan as a lowly slave.

Su Zhan sheathed his broadsword and turned back to Lin Yuer's side with a nonchalant expression, looking as relaxed as if he had just killed a few flies.

"Wife, it's cold outside, let's go back inside."

Lin Yuer hadn't recovered from the shock of what had just happened. Su Zhan had so easily defeated three strong grassland men and even scared Mandu away. This was simply too unexpected for her.

She quickly checked Su Zhan and found that he was completely unharmed.

Su Zhan chuckled.

"Don't worry, my wife, I'm not hurt. Let's go inside and talk."

Lin Yuer was relieved and went back to her tent.

Seeing that there was no more excitement to be seen, the herders at the tent entrance had no choice but to disperse.

But what happened today is really interesting; it has become a hot topic of discussion and spread widely.

Su Zhan became famous overnight and became the talk of the town in the camp.

Su Zhan stood at the tent entrance, looking at the few grassland people and the direction Mandu had left in.

Su Zhan did not believe that Man Hui would let the matter rest. Those few grassland people had also suffered such a great loss, and they certainly would not accept it.

After all, this was a camp of nomadic people, and someone as powerful as him, a Han Chinese, was bound to attract unwanted attention.

But Su Zhan had no intention of letting them go. Since they had already broken off relations, they would see who had the better methods.

If someone had dared to provoke him like this in his previous life, Su Zhan would have killed them eight hundred times over.

The reason he didn't touch Mandu or kill the three steppe people today was because it was inconvenient to do so in public.

Su Zhan thought to himself, "I'll go back and think about it carefully, and see how to get rid of this scourge, Mandu."

Otherwise, how could he and Lin Yuer live a good life if they were constantly being targeted by this toad spirit?

After returning to her tent, Lin Yuer's expression remained somewhat dazed, clearly still reeling from the shock she had just experienced.

Seeing this, Su Zhan spoke to her softly.

"What's wrong, my wife? Did I scare you?"

Lin Yuer shook her head: "I'm not scared, I'm just worried that this matter seems to be getting bigger and bigger."

Su Zhan chuckled: "I'm the kind of person who doesn't cause trouble, but I'm not afraid of trouble either. It's them who keep harassing us, so we have no choice but to fight back."

"And today was just a lesson for them. If they escalate their behavior, don't blame me for being ruthless."

A fierce glint flashed in Su Zhan's eyes, which Lin Yu'er noticed. She immediately grabbed Su Zhan's hand in concern.

"Husband, don't fight with them anymore. We've already paid them back, so let's just let it go."

Su Zhan stroked Lin Yuer's hair and chuckled.

"Let it go? How could that be? I, Su Zhan, am not so easily bullied. Don't worry, my wife, how can we survive here if we don't teach them a lesson?"

Lin Yu'er asked with a worried expression, "Then what do you plan to do?"

Su Zhan smiled mysteriously: "My wife, don't worry about it, I have a plan!"

After that, no matter how Lin Yuer asked Su Zhan, he just smiled and didn't answer. Helpless, Lin Yuer could only tell Su Zhan to be careful.

Su Zhan's idea was simple: since they wanted to make trouble, he would play along to the end.

If they're going to court death, then Su Zhan will kill them all.

This is the grassland; killing a person or two is as easy as playing around. He even killed Wang Hu, and those human traffickers still couldn't do anything to him.

Although the grassland people are a bit more troublesome than human slaves, if Su Zhan does it cleanly and neatly, without leaving any clues, even if they investigate, they won't be able to trace it back to him.
