"What? Who is he?! "
Hearing the servant's words, Junior Leopard and Jin Nanqing felt that it was unbelievable.
Looking at the tall and burly man with a full beard on his face, the two fellows had a guilty conscience, so they instinctively thought that he was the bandit near Black Shakou, the head of the horse bandits, Beard Ma.
Unexpectedly, the servant beside them said that he was Black Three Lady.
"He is Black Three Lady!" One person continued, "The most mysterious group of bandits in Black Shakou, and also the most powerful one. I didn't expect that he was actually from the Sect of Flame!"
The two of them turned around and saw that it was the steward of the Wu Residence.
"Steward Yu, why did you come out?!"
Although Wu's branch in Zhonghe Prefecture had always been under Wu Yuntian's control, it was after all a branch of the Wu's. All the personnel setup was the same as other places. Wu Yuntian was the Seneschal, and this middle-aged man without a beard was the steward. He didn't know any martial arts, but he was in charge of the business operation of the Wu's branch in Zhonghe Prefecture. He could be considered as a member of the Wu's headquarters. There was another person who was the head blacksmith. However, Zhonghe Prefecture was much bigger than Qingyang Market. The Wu's branch was also different from Qingyang Market. The place for smelting iron and weapons was in a separate place, not in the same place as the Wu's branch.
In fact, not only was it the place for smelting iron and weapons, there was also the Wu's shop, which was not in the same street as the current Wu's branch. Now the Wu's branch, which was also the Wu Residence, was just Wu Yuntian's private residence.
Generally speaking, Steward Yu was in the Wu's shop, managing the Wu's business. He rarely came to the Wu's Residence. The two of them didn't expect to see Steward Yu here.
"Why am I here?!" Steward Yu smiled bitterly, "A few days ago, there were a few groups of creditors who came to the shop to collect the debt. They even had Steward Wu's IOU, and even the seal of the Wu's in Zhonghe. However, I have never seen the money, and it wasn't in the account. Moreover, the amount was too big. Even if I took out all the money in the shop, it wouldn't be enough. After resisting for a few days, I really couldn't resist any longer. I could only come to find Steward Wu. I didn't expect to encounter such a matter!"
While speaking, the group of people had already arrived at the Wu's Residence.
"Who dares to trespass the Wu Residence?!"
In front of the Wu Residence, a person took a step forward and blocked the group of people. He shouted sternly. Even though there was a trace of trembling in his voice, it still made Junior Leopard and Jin Nanqing admire his courage.
"Neigh, neigh, neigh …!"
The man in black, who was Black Three Lady's horse, rushed to the front of the man. It raised its front hooves high and stomped on the man.
"Humph!" Junior Leopard snorted coldly. With his left hand, he picked up the silver hammer on his left waist and smashed it towards the horse.
If the horse's hooves stepped on the man, Junior Leopard's hammer would also hit the horse.
"Good lad!" A fierce light flashed in Black Three Lady's eyes. He reined in the horse's head and avoided Junior Leopard's hammer. At the same time, the whip in his hand turned into a black shadow and lashed out.
"Pa —!" The whip hit the man who was blocking the way and sent him flying.
"Big Head Yan, you are only a head of guards. There is no need to risk your life like that right?!"
After lashing out with the whip, Black Three Lady ridiculed. His gaze was fixed on Junior Leopard's body.
Junior Leopard's attack did not hit and he did not go out again. The silver chain in his hand tightened and he kept the silver hammer that he had just thrown out. Looking at Black Three Lady, he only smiled coldly. But in his heart, he was secretly shocked. This Black Three Lady was actually a Level Three expert. The hand that was holding the hammer couldn't help but tighten.
"Black Three Lady, this is the Wu Residence. It is not a place where you can behave atrociously!"
Big Head Yan who had fallen on the ground climbed up. That whip was not light. It had whipped his arm until it was lacerated. There was a deep wound that revealed the bone. If it was just a little bit more, his bones would have been broken.
"You, how do you know me?!" That Big Head Yan was not lightly whipped. Looking at Black Three Lady, his eyes flashed with fear.
"Of course I know you. Not only do I know you, there is no one in the entire Wu Residence that I don't know!"
Black Three Lady said. His face revealed an extremely resentful and happy expression. Then, his gaze stopped on Junior Leopard and Jin Nanqing. "Of course, this also includes the two of you!"
"I don't care who you are and whether you are from the Sect of Flame or not. But I think you should understand that even if you have taken over the entire Zhonghe City, the Wu Residence is not a place that you can casually barge into!" Jin Nanqing said indifferently.
"Indeed, little friend, you are right. I will not casually barge into the Wu Residence. However, that is to others. To me, there is no such taboo. You are called Jin Nanqing right? You came from Yunzhou. It is not your turn to make decisions here. Where is Wu Yuntian? Call him out!"
"Chief Supervisor Wu can't come out!"
Steward Yu who was at the side said helplessly.
"What? He can't come out? He ran away?!" Black Three Lady raised his eyebrows and looked at Steward Yu.
"Chief Supervisor Wu's study room was on fire. He was inside and didn't manage to escape in time!" Steward Yu sighed. Wu Yuntian was forced by his creditors to set fire to himself. He naturally couldn't say such a thing in front of so many people.
However, Black Three Lady was also a smart person. Upon hearing this, his expression stiffened. "What? What did you say? He didn't manage to come out in time? He died?!"
No one answered. Even though everyone knew that Wu Yuntian was in grave danger, but without seeing the corpse, no one dared to speak carelessly.
"Then now, who can make decisions in the Wu Residence?!"
No one answered.
In this Zhonghe City, Wu Yuntian was a person whose words carried weight. Under him, no matter if it was Steward Yu or the supervisor of the Iron Smelting Room, they were all just executors. Now that Wu Yuntian was dead, before the Wu's headquarters sent a new supervisor to Zhonghe City, the authority of the Wu's branch in Zhonghe City was a vacuum. There was basically no one who could make decisions.
Black Three Lady obviously didn't expect to encounter such a thing. "Alright, I don't care if Wu Yuntian is dead or alive, and I also don't care who the person in charge here is. I want to go in now. You all won't stop me right?"
Black Three Lady said. His gaze shifted to Junior Leopard and said, "Little friend, you won't stop me right?!"
"What do you think?!" Junior Leopard's gaze turned cold. The two silver hammers were already in his hands.
"At such a young age, your temper is quite big?!" Black Three Lady's eyes squinted. His gaze stared coldly at Junior Leopard. "At such a young age, your cultivation has already reached Level Three. I really don't understand. How can those fellows from the Wu's be at ease to let you come out!"
"I also don't understand. You're obviously a grown man. Why would you call me 'wife'? Could it be that you don't have that thing down there anymore? The beard on your face is all stained?!" Junior Leopard grinned.
"You're courting death!"
"Same to you!"
While the two of them were talking, the twin hammers and the whip had already entangled together.
"Kill …!"
"Charge …!"
While the two of them were fighting together, the Wu Residence's retainers and Black Three Lady's men also raised their weapons and started a chaotic battle.
