Chapter 319: Chapter 184 Mouse? Quite tasty. _2

Zheng furrowed his brow, then sneered:

"Since we managed to come in, we’ll definitely be able to get out. In any case, none of you are allowed to touch these treasures. Touch one, and I’ll kill one! It would be easier just to kill you all and be done with it."

Hearing Zheng’s overbearing words, everyone felt enraged but dared not speak out.

But just then, a figure slowly walked over.

Mr Yu wore a faint smile on his face as he picked up a string of beautiful jewelry from the ground, gently wiping the dust off it with his sleeve, and clicked his tongue:

"They say fortune and disaster come hand in hand, and that’s not wrong at all. I, Yu Wuwei, it seems my luck has finally turned around. There are beauties and treasures. Next should be power, I suppose."

"You brat, do you have a death wish!?"

Zheng hadn’t expected this frail scholar to dare provoke him, and murderous intent surfaced in his eyes.

Chu Qi slightly frowned but remained silent.

Mr Yu kicked away a few ingots of gold with his foot, a radiant smile on his face, "I’m sorry, Zheng, but please put down the treasures in your hand. My family’s belongings are not for any cat or dog to touch."

"Have you lost your mind, kiddo?"

Zheng looked at him as if he were an idiot, "You want to die, don’t you? Well, I’ll grant your wish!"

Zheng took a step forward.

But as he was about to make his move, he suddenly discovered that everyone’s eyes were filled with terror, and it wasn’t because of him, but—behind him!

Zheng’s face changed, and without looking, he turned and threw a punch.

But he hit nothing.

While he was still confused, a "hee hee" came from above.

When Zheng looked up, he saw a woman in white with peculiar white whiskers growing at the corners of her mouth.

The woman’s body was curled up in a grotesque position, crawling like a rat, staring straight at him with an unfathomable, mocking smile on her face.

And behind the woman, a long tail swayed casually.

"Hee hee."

The woman in white, ghostly and elusive in her movements, suddenly appeared in front of Zheng.

Before Zheng could react, the woman’s fingers, fast as lightning, stabbed straight into his eyes.

In an instant, Zheng let out a heartrending scream, as searing pain surged like a torrent—a bloodied cavity was all that remained of his eyes, blood gushing out and staining his clothes in a gruesome spectacle.

Zheng fell to the ground.

The woman in white pounced in front of him, her claws tearing continuously at his clothes and flesh, occasionally bowing her head to nibble, as blood splattered out non-stop...

At first, Zheng struggled, but gradually his struggles grew weaker, until he no longer moved.

The onlookers felt a chill run down their spines watching this scene.

Chu Qi stared at the woman in white in shock, then at the grinning Mr Yu, murmuring, "Master Jiang was right, the culprit is indeed related to you, you’ve been pretending all along."

Soon, the demon had devoured Zheng’s corpse entirely.

Only a severed head remained.

Mr Yu sat on a chest filled with gold, looking at everyone with a smile, "Don’t worry, I won’t kill you. As long as you behave, I might even give you a share of this gold and silver. Besides, I can lead you out of here."

Once a person becomes immensely wealthy or rises above others, their mentality undergoes a drastic change.

It’s like an ordinary person suddenly acquiring supernatural powers, even if they were a kind and chivalrous person before.

At first, they might use their powers for good, but over time, human desires, ambitions, and the destructive urges buried deep within will slowly erode their sanity, subtly altering them.

Mr Yu was such a person.

He had endured a lifetime of disdain and achieved nothing significant. Even after he obtained the title of Scholar, he still couldn’t change his impoverished fate.

Then one day, by chance, the demon rat he unwittingly released, in an act of gratitude, agreed to do his bidding.

Now with these newfound abilities, his ego inevitably began to swell.

And such an inflated ego, faced with all this gold and silver treasure, eventually fully revealed itself.

"You weren’t being very honest just now."

Mr Yu looked at a somewhat attractive woman, smiling as he reached out his hand, "Secretly hiding a string of pearls, thinking I didn’t see? Hand it over, I don’t want to have to kill a woman."

The woman’s face turned ashen. Glancing at the bloodied woman in white, she shakily stepped forward, handing over the pearls and forcing a smile as she apologized, "I’m sorry... Ah!"

Before the woman could finish her apology, Mr Yu pulled her into his embrace.

Burying his head in her neck, he took a deep breath and smiled with squinted eyes, "Having power is just so thrilling. From now on, who would dare to look down on me? Hahaha..."

The woman was terrified, tears streaming down her face, too frightened to move.

Chu Qi gnashed his teeth, "Mr. Yu, let her go!"

Mr. Yu ignored him, but did release the woman he was holding, because the woman he wanted was hundreds of times better than this one.

Mr. Yu’s gaze turned toward the delicate and charming Leng Jing,

"Miss Leng, I plan to take these treasures overseas. If I can’t be a great nation’s prince, I can still be a king of a smaller country. Are you interested in being my queen?"

"Disgusting!"

Leng Jing’s beautiful eyes were full of disgust.

Mr. Yu laughed heartily, "It doesn’t matter, it’s not up to you. This overwhelming wealth should be yours. Other women want it but don’t have the chance. Shu Shu, bring over my queen; I want to grant her a reward personally."

Whoosh!

The woman in white lay on the ground in a strange pose, crawling towards Leng Jing.

The young girl’s hair stood on end.

She hastily picked up the cactus, but her mana was exhausted and she was completely unable to use it; the girl’s heart fell into despair for a moment.

"Shu Shu? That sounds really disgusting."

Suddenly, a mocking voice drifted into the hall.

Everyone present was startled and looked up in the direction of the sound, only to be shocked to see a secret door open in the ceiling of the palace.

And there stood Jiang Shouzhong.

"Jiang Mo!"

Leng Jing’s eyes lit up with surprise and delight.

Chu Qi, seeing the sudden appearance of Jiang Shouzhong, was also filled with joy, but upon seeing the strange woman in white, he immediately began to worry again.

Although Master Jiang’s cultivation was higher than Zheng’s, it was uncertain whether he could deal with the woman in white.

"You’re still alive."

Mr. Yu’s face darkened, and a mocking smile curled at the corners of his mouth, "Since you’re alive, you should be hiding. Why bother coming here to seek death? Do you think you’re playing the hero to save the beauty?"

Jiang Shouzhong leaped into the hall and, looking at the scattered gold and silver, grumbled, "Why is it that my side is so bare?"

Mr. Yu was quite angered by Jiang Shouzhong’s disregard for his presence, and said coldly, "Master Jiang, do you plan to recognize the times and submit to me, or do you plan to die here... But let me tell you in advance, I won’t burn paper money for you next year on this day."

"Coincidentally, I won’t be burning any for you either,"

Jiang Shouzhong said, revealing a grin.

"Ignorant fool!" Mr. Yu snorted coldly and said to the rat demon, "Go, he’s your dinner!"

The rat demon’s smile was eerie.

At that moment, a gorgeous woman in red appeared by Jiang Shouzhong’s side.

Mr. Yu was taken aback, staring at the woman’s enchanting figure, his eyes blazing with an unprecedented fervor. He slapped his thigh excitedly, "Good, good, good! This one’s even better! I have found a new queen! Miss Leng, you can be the consort then. Shu Shu, capture that woman for me!"

Mr. Yu did not recognize that Mengniang was the same master who had killed the three elders before.

But the rat demon recognized her.

Especially since she perceived an extremely dangerous aura emanating from Mengniang.

While the rat demon hesitated, Mengniang moved swiftly, not even giving the rat demon a chance to flee. She grabbed the demon by the neck and lifted it off the ground.

The woman’s eyes glowed with golden vertical pupils, "Shu Shu? Sounds tasty."

A snake!!

The rat demon, terrified out of its wits, struggled desperately, letting out a sharp, squeaky noise.

"Crack!"

The rat demon’s neck was crushed to pieces.

Mr. Yu sat on the ground with a thud, watching the scene dumbfounded, with trembling lips unable to speak.

Endless fear overwhelmed his limbs and marrow, chilling him to the bone.

Mengniang’s slender hand lifted slightly.

A string of pearls on the ground coiled around Mr. Yu’s body.

And then, they began to tighten slowly.

As his bones shattered piece by piece, Mr. Yu cried out in pain and wanted to beg for mercy but couldn’t utter a whole sentence.

Bang!

The man turned into a pile of bloody mush.
