The Guardian's Sword

"Alright, since we've gotten conclusive evidence, there is nothing more to be
said... lan, and you... What's your name?" Sean asked, looking at the angry city
defense soldier.

Though the city defense soldier was confused, he replied, "My name is Donald
Carling, Commander-in-chief!"

"Okay, Donald, you and lan will punish the three young masters. Give them 40
strokes each.”

Sean's calm statement made Lionel, Solomon, and Nathan pale dramatically.
40 strokes?

Is that a joke?

That can kill us!

Lionel instantly panicked and shouted at Sean, "Who are you to hit us?!"

"I'm the commander-in-chief of the city defense army, and the three of you have
just tried to bribe and threaten the city defense soldiers. The punishment for each
of these crimes is 20 strokes. The total is 40 strokes,” Sean explained with a
laugh.

As soon as Sean said this, the city defense soldiers behind him pounced on
Lionel, Solomon, and Nathan, pinning them to the ground.

Sean only continued speaking calmly, "Lionel, Solomon, and Nathan, do you
realize I'm here to let you go? To tell you the truth. I don't want to let you go, but
you didn't violate Dorodo's laws, and I can't punish you randomly..."

"But you were so uncooperative, trying to bribe and threaten the city defense
soldiers. You happened to violate Dorodo's law by that. Tell me, how can I not
seize this opportunity and punish you?"

"Thank you for your cooperation. If you hadn't tried to bribe and threaten us,
there's nothing I could do to you. But now... Haha, sorry. Please don't blame me
for being heartless.”

Sean's statement confused Lionel, Solomon, and Nathan. Their hearts only had
regret at this moment!

If they had known they could get out by doing nothing, they would never have
made a scene, bribed, or threatened them. However, no matter how much they
regretted it, it was useless.

lan and Donald were excited.

They had long wanted to give these three heirs a good beating, and now they
had a chance, and it was for a good reason!

"What are you waiting for? Do it!" Sean suddenly turned serious and ordered
loudly.

lan and Donald immediately picked up a two-meter-long wooden stick and hit
Lionel and Solomon on the back.

Bam!

Bang!

Bam!

One stroke after another, Lionel and Solomon began crying their heads off from
the beating.

Nathan, who was also held down nearby, paled with fear as his lips went pale.
"Stop... Stop it... Someone will die if you continue..."

"It hurts so much... My father never even hit me..."

"Commander-in-chief... We're wrong... Stop it... lwon't do it anymore..."

"Please stop... My butt is gonna crack... It hurts... It hurts like h*Il... Stop.... I beg
you..."

Lionel and Solomon had almost been beaten unconscious. However, Sean did
not relent.

"Pour cold water on them to wake them up. Then continue beating them again..."
Sean ordered without hesitation.

lan immediately brought a basin of cold water with chunks of unmelted ice in it! 1
He poured the basin of ice and water mixture on Lionel and Solomon's head,
face, body, and wounds.

The two young men born with silver spoons in their mouths immediately woke up
screaming. Then their cries of pain and horror rang in the prison.
