Chapter 127: Chapter 127: Hate Me for Being "Small", I’m Just Underdeveloped

Sha Kuang gasped his last breath, but his eyes remained open.

The most ironic thing was, the body of his son, Sha Zhan, also lay on the ground nearby.

Ye Lingyue walked over, searching Sha Kuang’s corpse and found the key to the treasury and a small dark-gold pouch.

Apart from that, there was nothing else.

Not a single Thunder Bomb or other items were on him at all.

"This pouch?" Ye Lingyue pondered and looked at the pouch in her hand. When she infused spiritual power into the pouch, she was surprised to find that it had a space inside.

The small dark-gold pouch actually contained a space the size of a square foot.

Inside it, large and small items were piled up, ranging from silver notes to the five Thunder Bombs, as well as some jewelry and the accumulated wealth extorted by the Mountain and Sea Gang over the years—it was another small treasury.

"That is a Hundred Treasure Bag, a special storage pouch refined by Alchemists," as Ye Lingyue was figuring out the use of this Treasure Bag, a voice with a hint of teasing jest suddenly floated over.

Ye Lingyue’s scalp tingled upon hearing that voice; it sounded so familiar, like that annoying guy!

Here she was in the Mountain and Sea Gang’s treasury, and Sha Kuang had set up nine locks to prevent the officials from coming in. Now all nine locks were still intact, so this voice...

"Why is it you again? I’ve seen idle people, but none as idle as you." Ye Lingyue glanced at the golden-masked man.

Lately, she bumped into this annoying man way too often.

Ye Lingyue was certain that Wu Zhong was neither from Li City nor Qiufeng Town; she knew nothing about him.

People always instinctively reject the unknown, yet there’s a trace of curiosity.

This man was too mysterious, appearing without a trace and disappearing without a trace. However, each of the three times he appeared had been when her life was at stake.

"Who would worry about a flat-chested, flat-butted yellow-haired girl like you?" The golden-masked man’s cherry-colored lips were quite attractive, but the words that popped out of them hurt Ye Lingyue’s teeth with anger.

This damned man, it seemed like every time he showed up, he never had a single good word to say.

"Who’s flat-chested and flat-butted, I just haven’t developed properly yet." Ye Lingyue subconsciously puffed out her chest.

When she was reborn, the foolish Ye Lingyue’s figure could only be described as malnourished, with no distinction between front or back.

But recently, with improved nutrition and higher cultivation, both Ye Lingyue’s height and figure had undergone significant changes.

As she puffed out her chest, which had begun to develop, she indeed drew the golden-masked man’s sidelong glance.

Realizing that the man’s gaze had gone from teasing to suggestive, Ye Lingyue shivered. She almost forgot that this man had previously made advances toward... She sprang back in terror, wrapping her arms around her chest, fearing that he might suddenly transform into the big bad wolf and devour her down to the bones.

Maybe because he’d never seen Ye Lingyue like this before, the golden-masked man burst into laughter, echoing non-stop in the treasury.

"Little Yueyue, you really are to my liking. It’s just a shame you’re still too ’little’. When you ’grow’ big enough that I can’t hold you with one hand, then I’ll consider swallowing you in one gulp," he said, and his eyes lingered on Ye Lingyue’s chest for a few more moments.

Ye Lingyue was so angry that her face flushed and her ears turned red, yet she couldn’t lash out. She was keenly aware that this man’s strength was infuriatingly formidable, such that not even the Phoenix Divine Beast was a match for him.

"You... you rascal..." Ye Lingyue gave him a sideways glance.

"If it weren’t for this rascal here, who set up a scheme to cheat Young Master Sha, did you really think you could so easily take down the Mountain and Sea Gang? Tell Lan Yingwu to say that Sha Kuang and his son, they owed me, Wu Zhong, money and didn’t pay it back. I’ve taken their heads," said the golden-faced man. After speaking, he swept his sleeve, and like a magic trick, the heads of Sha Kuang and his son Sha Zhan, lying on the ground, disappeared.

Ye Lingyue was about to reply when the golden-faced man’s figure vanished from her sight, leaving only two headless corpses on the ground.

"Ling Yue! Ling Yue! Are you okay in there?" came an anxious inquiry from outside the treasury.

After Ye Lingyue was taken hostage by Sha Kuang, Lan Cai’er also informed the Ye family, and Governor Lan had his troops waiting outside, fearing Sha Kuang might harm Ye Lingyue.

Who would have known, just before dawn, the soldiers guarding the treasury felt a figure flash out of it, but alas, the figure was so fast that not even Governor Lan could catch up.

Lan Cai’er, fearing something happened to Ye Lingyue, started calling out from outside.

When Ye Lingyue opened the door to the treasury, only two headless corpses remained on the ground.

"What on earth happened? Who was the person that entered the treasury just now?" Governor Lan and the others, seeing Ye Lingyue was unharmed, breathed a sigh of relief.

But upon seeing the way Sha Kuang died, Governor Lan’s expression became grave again.

In his opinion, it was absolutely impossible for Ye Lingyue to kill Sha Kuang, an Innate Expert.

"It was... Wu Zhong. Father, do you know a person named Wu Zhong?" Ye Lingyue hesitated, repeating the message Wu Zhong asked her to convey to Governor Lan.

Upon hearing the name Wu Zhong, everyone present changed their expressions in an instant.

In the treasury, there was dead silence; no one spoke.

"My lord Governor, outside... all the members of the Mountain and Sea Gang have been killed by someone," a soldier ran in, breaking the stifling atmosphere in the treasury.

His expression was a mixture of shock and panic.

"Take it easy, speak slowly, who has been killed?" Governor Lan’s eyebrows twitched, a bad premonition slowly rising in his heart.

Could it be that the person who killed Sha Kuang and took his and his son’s heads was really that Wu Zhong, the man from the legends, terrifying to the extreme?

Last night, Sha Kuang took Ye Lingyue hostage and the governor ordered the capture of about five or six hundred members of the Mountain and Sea Gang, imprisoning them at the Mountain and Sea Gang’s martial arts training field.

Who would have thought that just before dawn, during the changing of the guards, all of the five or six hundred members of the Mountain and Sea Gang were dead.

What was even more chilling was that the heads of these Mountain and Sea Gang members had all been smashed with a single palm strike, leaving none intact.

The perpetrator acted fast and furiously, clearly the work of one person.

"It truly is Ghost Emperor Wu Zhong. Only he could commit murder right under the noses of a thousand soldiers and make it seem like taking something out of his pocket," Governor Lan, who had been through many battles, couldn’t help but feel a sense of dread at Wu Zhong’s brutality and ruthlessness.

"My lord Governor, after the man had killed them, he also left a line of words at the martial arts training field, ’A small gift, a trivial courtesy,’" after finishing his words, the soldier couldn’t help but "wretch," vomiting uncontrollably.

Anyone who saw five or six hundred headless corpses at the same time would react just like that soldier.
