Chapter 354: Chapter 354: Just Seeking Wealth

Yang Yu hastily pleaded for mercy, "Big brothers, I’m just a doorman here. Could you knock me out instead? Please don’t kill me. I don’t know anything."

"We’re only here for the money, not to take lives," the shifty-eyed guy sneered. "As long as you answer our questions obediently, we won’t make things difficult for you."

"Okay, okay, okay," Yang Yu nodded frantically like a pecking chicken. "What questions? Just ask."

The guy asked, "Do you know who put this ’Tear of the Sea God’ up for auction here?"

Yang Yu tilted his head, feigning a dim-witted look. "I’m not too sure about that. I vaguely overheard the boss mention something about ’something Qing something Xia from Yanjing’?"

"Something Qing something Xia... There’s no Qing family in Yanjing, is there?" the guy pondered for a moment. "Could it be Xia Qing?"

"Yes, yes, yes, it’s Xia Qing!" Yang Yu confirmed eagerly nodding his head. "That’s the name, without a doubt!"

"Very good," the guy was very pleased and then asked, "Do you know the password to unlock this?"

Yang Yu grimaced and shook his head. "What do you think?"

"Alright, number four, stop wasting time talking to this kid. Just blow the door open," said a man with a goatee, carrying a big bag of homemade explosives and piling it at the vault door. "Move out of the way if you don’t want to die!"

Yang Yu quickly took cover with the other four, and soon, with a loud "boom," the door of the vault was blasted open, creating a big hole amidst billowing smoke!

"Cough cough..." Everyone coughed violently from the smoke, and the goatee hastily said, "Come on, guys, let’s find where the stuff is."

"Okay," the other four pulled Yang Yu into the vault through the big hole. The shifty-eyed number four then asked Yang Yu, "Where is the ’Tear of the Sea God’?"

"No need to ask, it must be in that small safe," the others prepared to move the small safe, but Yang Yu quickly said, "I sneaked a peek earlier, and there’s nothing in the boss’s safe. He seemed to have put the stuff in that corner over there."

Number four immediately headed towards the corner Yang Yu had indicated and indeed found a blue jade there. "It’s really here! Haha!"

The group looked and all their eyes widened. "It really is! This kiddo is something!"

Yang Yu looked at them pleadingly, "Big brothers, seeing as I’ve been such a big help, could you spare my life?"

The five guys exchanged glances and began to discuss, "This kid has seen our faces; it might be better to kill him."

"Although we’ve killed our share of people, this kid is quite sensible. It wouldn’t be right to kill him."

"Right, all the surveillance here has been destroyed. Even though this guy has seen us, he doesn’t know who we are. There’s no need to kill."

Number four nodded, "Alright, then let’s not kill him..."

Whoosh!

Before he could finish, number four suddenly and unexpectedly thrust a dagger towards Yang Yu’s heart!

Swish!

Number four’s hand stopped there, the tip of the dagger just three or four centimeters from Yang Yu’s heart.

His throat burst like a fractured water pipe, blood spurting wildly!

The other four men’s faces turned pale with terror, attempting to escape, but the exit was blocked by Yang Yu, "I originally wanted to let you all live. Just take the Tear of the Sea God and leave. I didn’t expect that you’d bring this upon yourselves, I’m really helpless here!"

Although the four had never fought Yang Yu directly, they had seen how swiftly he had moved to kill the fourth brother, so quick that their eyes couldn’t even follow.

With Yang Yu’s strength, which of them could be his match?

The four men quickly begged for mercy, "Brother, it was all the fourth brother’s fault. We never intended to kill you. Please let us go!"

"Right, you saw it yourself, we all were trying to persuade the fourth brother not to kill you."

"I’ll give you a chance," said Yang Yu. "The four of you fight each other, and whoever is the last one standing, I’ll let him leave with the Tear of the Sea God. I swear to the heavens, I won’t go back on my word, or else I’ll end up just like your fourth brother..."

Swipe!

The man with the beard was the first to act, swinging his dagger toward the brother next to him.

The man didn’t react in time and was stabbed through the heart by the bearded man!

However, the bearded man didn’t fare much better. The other two struck at the same time—one blinding him with a hidden weapon and the other slashing his throat with a dagger!

"Tang Sect’s hidden weapon?" Yang Yu’s eyes lit up. "So it turns out you’re from the Sichuan Tang Sect!"

The remaining two resumed their deadly struggle. The hidden weapon expert got stabbed in the shoulder by his companion, but he managed to shoot a Sulfur Stone Arrow at close range into his assailant’s throat.

With a loud bang, the Sulfur Stone Arrow exploded in his opponent’s throat, blasting his head clean off his shoulders, a ghastly death!

The expert in hidden weapons staggered to Yang Yu, fell to his knees with a "thump," "Sir, please spare my life!"

"I keep my word, I won’t kill you," Yang Yu said with a slight smile, casually tossing him a pill. "This is my self-made Hundred-Day Intestine-Cutting Pill, made from Intestine-breaking Herb. Swallow it, do a job for me, I’ll give you the antidote, and then we’re even."

He swallowed the pill without hesitation. "Sir, whatever you need, just command me."

Yang Yu instructed, "First, tell me about your background and your boss behind the scenes. Then I’ll decide what job I’ll have you do."

"My name is Tang Kuo. I was expelled from my family because I studied the forbidden weapons of the Tang Sect and became one of the Five Heroes of Sichuan," said Tang Kuo. "We usually operate around Sichuan. This time, the Tong Family paid us a huge sum to steal the Tear of the Sea God and also to find out who had initially stolen the Tear of the Sea God."

"As I thought, the Tong Family," Yang Yu sneered twice. "Fine, take the Tear of the Sea God back and report that the other four were killed by the local security, and don’t mention my name. Come find me after the auction ends, and I will give you the antidote."

"Alright, thank you, sir," Tang Kuo replied. "May I ask your name, sir?"

"I am Yang Yu. The people of the Tong Family know me. That’s also why I don’t want you to tell them the truth," Yang Yu explained. "You can go now. If you delay too long, it could arouse suspicion."

As Tang Kuo was about to leave, Yang Yu suddenly added, "Oh, and since you’ve lost four brothers, make sure to tell the Tong Family to increase the payment, or you won’t deliver the item."

Tang Kuo was puzzled, "The payment for those four brothers will all go to me. I could directly get five billion. Why should I ask for more money?"

"Knowing the father and son of the Tong Family as I do, if you don’t ask for more, they will definitely be suspicious," Yang Yu sneered coldly. "The greedier you appear, the more they will trust you. After all, the Tear of the Sea God in your possession is fake. You mustn’t let them get suspicious."
