I Become a Landlady in the Game World

"You, you, you... you..." Viscount Wolf first pointed at O'Neill, then at Zhou Bai, entirely too infuriated to speak, and of course, at this moment, he felt even saying a single word was painful to his face.

Just a few moments earlier, O'Neill had gone straight for the other's face.

At this time, Zhou Bai, who could hardly wait, stepped forward and handed Viscount Wolf a vial of healing potion, quickly saying, "This is a healing potion, Viscount Wolf, you should take it and recover quickly."

Viscount Wolf looked at the vial of potion in front of Zhou Bai, feeling as if the other was mocking him. He simply ignored it and took out a better recovery potion of his own to drink.

He had even forgotten that his wounds could be healed.

As the recovery potion went down, Viscount Wolf instantly felt the pain on his face and body vanish.

"Where is your Lord? This man has assaulted a noble; he must be sentenced to death!" Viscount Wolf spoke out without hesitation, his gaze on O'Neill as if he wished to kill him on the spot.

O'Neill met his gaze with a defiant stare, showing no fear whatsoever.

Hearing this, Zhou Bai said helplessly, "Our Lord is not here at the moment; I am in charge of the matter. In our territory, there is no rule that assaulting a noble results in the death penalty. Besides, they acted too hastily, striking you in a moment of impulse due to your attitude towards us. There was no ill intent."

"No ill intent? I was beaten to this state???"

"But aren't you fine now? Not a single scar." Zhou Bai said, his tone innocently pure.

Viscount Wolf: "..."

—He instantly understood the malicious intent behind Zhou Bai offering him the healing potion.

Looking at their soldiers, each had already taken a recovery potion and healed; not a mark on them, as if the previous assault had been nothing but a dream.

Then looking at the spectators around.

Each one seemed to be watching a play, with various shouts just moments ago. On the grounds of Hope Village, would they side with him?

Impossible!

Frustration! He had never felt so frustrated in his life.

He had felt frustration for the first time a few days ago.

This time was the second!!!

Both times against the same person.

Looking at Zhou Bai, the Hope Village Chief, who from the very moment he appeared had been extremely tough, not giving him a second thought.

With his small group of a few dozen men in someone else's territory, no way could he come out on top.

Seeing Viscount Wolf's silent demeanor, Zhou Bai already knew the other's decision.

Immediately, he gave Viscount Wolf a way out, "Viscount Wolf, if you have come to our land as a visitor, we are of course very welcoming."

"Visitor!" Viscount Wolf ground out the word from between his teeth.

"How about you take your men out of the Task Center now? You've been delayed here for quite some time, and everyone is crowded around," Zhou Bai continued.

"Let's go!" With that single decisive word, Viscount Wolf led his people away.

Naturally, Viscount Wolf walked upright, passing through the encirclement of Zhou Bai's soldiers. As for his own men, they were much more cautious.

The harder their master, the harder they dared to be.

Now, with their master unable to handle these people, they had to tuck tail.

After they were gone, Zhou Bai turned to the surrounding crowd and said, "Everyone, you can disperse now!"

With no more spectacle to watch, the crowd could disperse naturally.

At the word from Zhou Bai, the crowd quickly thinned out.

Before long, the previously congested Task Center also loosened up considerably.

This also revealed Viscount Lancelot and his entourage.

Viscount Lancelot gave Zhou Bai a polite smile.

Hope Village was not to be trifled with indeed!

This wasn't a matter of strength, but mindset. Having so many people be so united in thought and perception was quite a frightening thing.

He was truly curious about what kind of world they came from that made them so disdainful of nobles.

As he pondered, Viscount Lancelot still took the initiative to approach Zhou Bai.

At this time, Zhou Zhengping, standing next to Zhou Bai, took the initiative to speak, "Since the matter here is resolved, should I be going?"

"Yes, you all go ahead with your tasks," Zhou Bai nodded, then turned to O'Neill on his side, "And you do the same."

"Sure," O'Neill nodded and suddenly as if a thought struck him, he hesitantly asked, "About us beating someone up just now, could it bring any trouble to our territory?"
