"He's already dead, and he hasn't been dead for long." The red gem young master furrowed his brows, "Who has the guts to make a move against a City Lord in broad daylight?"
As he said this, he completely forgot what he was here for. One look and it was obvious that he was here to uphold the current rules of the cultivation world.
"Dead?" The white jade young master checked and found that he was indeed dead. He immediately clenched his fists in anger and said resentfully, "Not being able to kill him with my own hands is really letting him off easy."
Just as he finished speaking, the sound of footsteps could be heard from outside. At the same time, a woman's voice could be heard, "Has the Master not come out yet?"
The red gem young master immediately turned around and said, "Junior Sister, let's leave quickly. Otherwise, we won't be able to clear this matter up."
However, the white jade young master's pent-up anger had yet to be vented. How could he leave so easily? Ignoring the advice, he dashed out of the hall.
The red gem young master was speechless.
Outside the hall, the City Lord's wife and her entourage jumped in fright when they saw someone suddenly appear and block their way.
The City Lord's wife had a sullen expression as she asked, "Who are you?"
Just like Miao Yi, the white jade young master had already recognized the other party as the daughter of the tofu shop owner, Old Li, from the outline of her brows.
I haven't even gotten angry, yet you're the first to get angry at me! The white jade young master's charming face turned cold. He immediately dashed over and slapped the City Lord's wife twice at an incomparably fast speed. Blood flew from her nose and mouth, and even her teeth flew out.
"You think a piece of trash like you is worthy of my Big Brother? You don't even have the right to carry my Big Brother's shoes! "
The white jade young master was still unwilling to give up. He cursed, but his feet didn't stop, and he kicked the City Lord's wife a few more times. The City Lord's wife was probably beaten senseless.
The red gem young master who dashed out of the hall didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She was usually a beautiful and quiet person. Why did she become like a shrew today?
Without waiting for the servants to react, the red gem young master had already dashed over. He grabbed the white jade young master's arm, and turned into two shadows as they flew away.
The servants at the scene were instantly in chaos. Not long after, someone cried out in fear, "They killed the City Lord, they killed the City Lord..."
Because it was obvious that this was the work of a cultivator who could fly, someone from the City Lord's Manor rushed to Changfeng Cave to report.
Meanwhile, the Cave Master of Changfeng Cave, who had just taken up his post with his troops and had yet to gain a firm foothold, was also shocked. The Lord of Changfeng City was the father of the Mountain Chieftain's personal handmaiden, Chun Xue.
He immediately ordered his men to search for the culprit, while sending a dragon steed to Mount Shaotai to report to Xiong Xiao.
That night, in the sleeping quarters of the Mountain Master of Mount Shaotai, a dozen red candles as thick as a child's arm flickered, illuminating the entire room. Three naked bodies were entangled on the bed.
After the battle, Xiong Xiao, who had just been promoted to a new position and divided the territories of the caves in Mount Shaotai, finally heaved a sigh of relief. At this moment, he was enjoying the moment of relaxation.
Dong Xue, the maid, and Xiong Xiao were embracing each other.
Chun Xue, with her fair skin and tender flesh, buried her head in Xiong Xiao's crotch, serving him with all her might to repay Xiong Xiao for seeking justice for her younger brother. In addition, she wanted her father to be the City Lord of Shaotai City, so she served him with all her might, causing Xiong Xiao to moan in pleasure.
Inside the room, the scene of spring was unbearable to look at. However, outside the room, someone hurriedly ran to the door and reported loudly, "Reporting to Mountain Chieftain, Changfeng Cave has sent someone to report that the City Lord of Changfeng City has been murdered and died a violent death!"
"Ah!" Chun Xue's frightened cry came from inside the room.
Not long after, the door opened. Xiong Xiao, who was simply wrapped in a robe, and two handmaidens with disheveled hair stood at the door. Chun Xue, whose face was deathly pale, could no longer hold back and asked, "What did you say?"
The person immediately cupped his fists and explained in detail. Chun Xue rolled her eyes, her body went limp, and she fell to the ground.
She was still hoping to avenge her dead brother and serve the Mountain Chieftain with all her might. In the end, before she could even receive news of her revenge, her father had lost his life.
Xiong Xiao supported her with one hand, and let Dong Xue help her inside. He himself had a dark expression on his face, and with a belly full of anger, he led his subordinates towards the Great Assembly Hall.
It wasn't purely because of Chun Xue, but because he had just left Changfeng Cave, and had just been promoted to Mountain Chieftain of Mount Shaotai, and someone had already killed the City Lord under his command. This was practically a slap to his face, so how could he not be angry?
The sun shone brightly. Miao Yi, who only cared about killing and not burying, was in good spirits. At a place not too far from South Edict Manor, he burrowed into a mountain forest, and found a secluded place to bury the large bundle on his back. He then mounted his dragon steed, traversed the mountains, and headed straight for South Edict Manor.
He galloped all the way to the mountain gates of South Edict Manor, and was stopped by the cultivators guarding the mountain gates.
Miao Yi jumped off his dragon steed, and held his spear horizontally as he cupped his fists and said, "Miao Yi has come to report to the Manor Head. Please help me pass on the message!"
The two cultivators guarding the gates had a cultivation base at White Lotus Second Grade, and weren't unfamiliar with Miao Yi. They both knew what it meant for Miao Yi to come back to report on his mission this time. There was a high chance that he would become the Cave Master of East Arrival Cave, and possibly the Cave Master with the lowest cultivation base in history.
Both of them looked at Miao Yi with eyes full of envy, jealousy, and hatred. Comparing oneself to others was infuriating. Look at him, with a cultivation base at White Lotus First Grade, he's doing better than us at White Lotus Second Grade. He's about to become a Cave Master, yet we're still here guarding the gates.
But then again, during the battle at Transient Light Cave, Miao Yi's valiance was still vivid in their minds. Three White Lotus Second Grade cultivators and one White Lotus Third Grade cultivator had died under this bastard's spear. The two of them had to admit that they couldn't compare to Miao Yi's fearless ferocity. If they were to really fight, the two of them might not be this bastard's match.
The two of them didn't make things difficult for him, and instead smiled as they cupped their fists in greeting, because they knew that Miao Yi was someone who had obtained the Manor Head's recognition.
"Brother Miao, please wait a moment!" One of them said politely, and quickly went back to report.
Miao Yi and the other, who called each other brothers in front of the mountain gates, began to chat. Only then did he find out that one of them was called Qian Zifeng, and the other was called Zhou Liqin.
After chatting with Qian Zifeng for a while, Zhou Liqin, who had come to report, quickly returned. He cupped his fists and said, "Brother Miao, please go to the South Edict Grand Hall. Little Auntie is waiting for you."
After saying this, he actually wanted to help Miao Yi lead Charcoal to the storage.
"I dare not trouble you. I'll do it myself." Miao Yi said politely.
Zhou Liqin waved his hand and said, "Such a small matter is not worth mentioning. I believe Brother Miao will soon be the Cave Master of East Arrival Cave. I hope Brother Miao will take care of me in the future."
"Not at all, not at all. Take care of each other." Miao Yi said politely. He took out twenty Gold Crystal coins from his bosom, and stuffed ten into each of their hands.
It should be known that low-level cultivators like them could only receive a monthly salary of ten Gold Crystals. Miao Yi was quite generous with his spending.
Miao Yi was well aware of the pros and cons when it came to building relationships. In the past, in order to ensure that his younger brother and sister could live a smooth life in Changfeng City, he would often cut off a pig's ear, or a pig's head, or even pig intestines to give to his neighbors, especially the brother-in-law of the City Lord Manor's steward.
He couldn't curry favor with the City Lord Manor's steward, but the City Lord Manor's steward's brother-in-law was quite fond of wine. Thus, Miao Yi would send over some dishes to go with wine every few days.
They were all worthless little things, and Miao Yi didn't have anything valuable to offer either. Even though they were little things, they couldn't endure for long. Thus, their relationship was established. This was also the reason why he was able to go against Head Guard Huang, and was still able to take care of his younger siblings in Changfeng City. From time to time, the brother-in-law of the City Lord's housekeeper would remind Head Guard Huang not to go overboard.
