C176 (2/2)
Prime Minister Qin put on a straight face and waved to the guards behind him. A few guards carried five boxes and placed them in front of them.
Seeing that, Bai Zhixi's teeth that were split open started to glow, he quickly squatted down and counted.
”It's exactly one hundred thousand taels of gold. Men, bring these to Young Master Zhu's residence.”
Just as Bai Zhixi squatted down, before he could even touch the box, he heard Jun Mohan's emotionless voice resounding above his head.
The next second, she helplessly watched as the box was taken away by someone. Although she felt reluctant in her heart, there was nothing she could do about it. Under the eyes of everyone present, she definitely could not let Prime Minister Qin see anything strange.
”Prime Minister Qin, since we have paid the loss with our land, we will take our leave.”
Leng Ming was also a very sensible person, seeing that Bai Zhixi was reluctant to part with the gold, he resigned from Prime Minister Qin.
After Bai Zhixi heard this, he looked at Leng Ming with an appreciative expression. The more he looked, the more he liked him.
The farce ended in such a depressing atmosphere.
Jun Mohan watched Bai Zhixi and the others disappear, then left Drunken Ape Restaurant.
”Mistress, who exactly is this woman? ”He actually has the protection of a Extreme Demon Lord.”
Prime Minister Qin stood by the window on the third floor, watching the direction of Bai Zhixi and the others as they left, deep in thought.
Hearing his subordinate speak like that, his hand that was playing with the metal bead tightened. Green veins could be seen bulging in his hand, and his eyes that had settled for tens of thousands of years were filled with boundless killing intent, as if he was going to freeze the entire room.
”Send a message to the brothers in the Eastern Region to investigate Bai Zhixi's background. The more detailed the better.”
Prime Minister Qin's eyes flashed like an eagle's, he gave an indifferent command, and then left the Drunken Blossom House.
Leng Ming nervously stood in the courtyard, looking at the hostile looking Jun Mohan in front of him, the center of his hand was covered in cold sweat.
He knew that it was his fault for not protecting his mistress this time. Although he did not know why his master did not tell his mistress his identity, he knew that his lord loved his mistress very much.
”My lord, this subordinate knows his wrongs and is willing to give my lord another chance. I will definitely protect the matriarch and prevent her from receiving any more harm.”
Leng Ming really could not endure the nervous atmosphere. With a ”bang”, he kneeled in front of Jun Mohan and begged for forgiveness.
”What are you guilty of?”
After a long while, Jun Mohan who was focused on drawing finally stopped and asked indifferently.
Hearing that, Leng Ming became even more nervous, he immediately wiped the sweat off his forehead and knelt on the ground, not daring to even breathe.
Since the Lord had said so, he must be angry. He was not far from death.
He made up his mind. He was going to die no matter what. If he wanted to die, then let him die a little faster!
”My lord, please tell the brothers that I will miss them from below.”
Leng Ming closed his eyes, and with no reason to live, he stabbed the sword down to his chest.
These people were all homeless orphans. If it wasn't for the fact that their master saved them when they were young and gave them martial arts, then he would lead his brothers into the world. He would have an extraordinary status within the martial forest.
Their lives had already been given to the Lord. If the Lord wanted them to die, they would definitely not live on in this world.
However, why didn't the saber feel any pain when it stabbed down?
Leng Ming slowly opened his eyes, only to see that his sword had long disappeared, leaving only the handle of the sword in his hand.
”Since we have free time, let's lead our brothers to the secret chamber to gain some experience!”
Jun Mohan held up the brush again, and wholeheartedly painted the unfinished work, without even giving him a glance.
Hearing that, Leng Ming stood there in a daze for a while before he could finally regain his senses, and walked towards the so-called secret room in the courtyard with a dull gaze.
But when he just reached a place in the shadows of the trees, he was beaten up by Qing Feng and the rest.
Originally, he could have slept soundly tonight, but after being disturbed by Leng Ming like this, he had no hope at all.
In the early morning of the next day, when the sky was just starting to brighten and a hint of the white of the fish just revealed itself, Bai Zhixi ran around the courtyard like he always did with his hair untied.
The drowsy girl had completely forgotten her current appearance. She ran as she ran and crashed into a sturdy chest. She lost her balance, tilted her body, and fell to the ground with a bang.
”Who is it? Don't you have eyes?”
Bai Zhixi laid on the ground, a golden light shining in her eyes. She felt a sharp pain from her head, and quickly pulled away the hair covering her forehead, revealing her tragic face.
”What the hell …”
Qing Feng, who had just finished training in the secret room, had dark circles under his eyes and was about to fall asleep.
Suddenly, he saw Bai Zhixi's face. He was so scared that his legs went soft, losing all sleepiness, and kicked at Bai Zhixi.
With great difficulty, Bai Zhixi, who had stood up with Bai Zhixi's beauty, fell down once again. His chest felt as if it had been crushed by a car, and was even burning in pain.
It could be seen how much strength Qing Feng used with that kick.
Bai Zhixi struggled to get up. She wanted to see who exactly kicked her.
If a tiger didn't show off his might, did he really think that he could be easily bullied?
His drowsy eyes suddenly opened. They were like sharp swords that locked onto the back of the person who had kicked her. He displayed his Qing Gong as he chased after her.
