Chapter 1278: 546

"Don’t act anymore, you shameless scoundrel," Xu Jiaoyun said coldly, "phony gentleman."

The members of the Blood Tiger Gang showed a mocking expression, "He dug up the grave for us, saved us the effort."

They pressed towards Zhao Yan.

Zhao Yan’s face showed anxiety, he stretched out his hand to block them, "You can’t do this, the master had the grace of raising you, and now you disturb his rest, you will incur heavenly retribution!"

"Heavenly retribution?" Wang Tong’s eyes showed contempt, "Yunxue City doesn’t have heavenly retribution, only Thornblood!"

If heavenly retribution really existed, how could Thornblood, having done such evil deeds, live so untroubled?

"Talking to me about heavenly retribution is somewhat amusing," Xu Jiaoyun scoffed with disdain.

"The master had the grace of raising you, like second parents, does your heart not ache doing this?" Zhao Yan said.

"Hmph, speaking of this makes me angry; if that old man hadn’t picked me up, maybe I’d still be the young mistress of a wealthy family.

Did he compensate me for my loss when he took me away?"

Twenty years ago, amidst heavy snow, the white-haired youth picked up Xu Jiaoyun; had he left her outside, maybe she would have frozen to death.

But three years ago, Xu Jiaoyun found out she was actually the young mistress lost from a wealthy city household, and that household’s master had died of illness years earlier.

She went to recognize her family and was refused, which made her very angry.

She didn’t dare to resent that rich master but began to blame her own master.

Xu Jiaoyun felt that if she hadn’t been taken by her master, maybe her father would have found her.

She would have been a beloved daughter, enjoying a life of luxury, rather than suffering hardships every day with this "worthless" master.

If not for the master’s exceptional strangeness, given her temperament, she would have taken action against him long ago.

"The master hasn’t compensated me for my life yet, what’s wrong with taking his legacy?" Xu Jiaoyun said shamelessly.

Wang Tong’s face also showed a smile, "Since the master cherished us so much, surely he would gladly leave his inheritance to us."

"Shameless!" Zhao Yan’s face turned ashen, "Beasts!"

Suddenly, two members of the Blood Tiger Gang pinned him down.

Zhao Yan’s frantic struggle was futile.

Wang Tong’s face showed a look of triumph as he approached the coffin, "Old man, I’ll see where exactly you’ve hidden your inheritance!"

Xu Jiaoyun walked over, looking at the reddish coffin with some fear.

It wasn’t a fear of the master, but a fear of ghosts.

"Could there be dirty stuff here?" Xu Jiaoyun said nervously.

In today’s world, Strange Spirits run rampant; the chance of encountering unclean things was significant.

"This is within the city; everything is under the watch of the Deceit God, there are no dirty things!" Wang Tong said. He bent down, preparing to open the coffin.

Just then, suddenly, a thumping sound came.

Xu Jiaoyun’s gaze immediately turned to the coffin, her spine chilled, her face showing a frightened expression, "The sound... there’s a sound from the coffin!"

Wang Tong was also stunned for a moment, somewhat panicked, "Don’t scare yourself!"

The master was definitely dead.

Even a big shot from Thornblood had come to see and found that the master’s body couldn’t be turned into a Strange Spirit before leaving.

How could the Thornblood big shot be wrong?

However, he was just bolstering his own courage, mustering the nerve to look at the coffin.

Thud, thud, thud!

Suddenly, the sound inside the coffin became louder.

Xu Jiaoyun’s face turned pale, "Ghost, ah!"

She ran.

Wang Tong also became afraid; he was holding a dagger.

Just then, a young voice came from the coffin.

"Are you guys so noisy that you won’t let me sleep in peace?"

Thud!

The coffin lid was flung open, and a young man sat up.

His appearance was incomparably handsome, his eyes calm yet profound, and his hair was white.

His face showed an unhappy look, as if he was annoyed at being woken up.

Seeing him, Wang Tong’s eyes revealed a shocked expression, "Master... Master..."

How could the master still be alive?

A Thornblood big shot had personally come to check!

Could it be that he wasn’t the master, but a Strange Spirit awakened within the master’s body?
