714 Lawless
Lu Benwei thought of the red desert in the northern wilderness. It was very likely that it was dyed by the blood of the Red Phoenix. He could not help but shudder.
“Is this the place where the Red Phoenix died?” Lu Benwei asked in disbelief.
Of course, there were also many witnesses. For example, this place was rich in red pearls that could be used to extract the Red Phoenix’s true blood.
“In that case, the Red Phoenix divine dicine is also real. The force behind the Pegasus rcenary Corps is looking for its whereabouts?” Ji Han said. Her black eyes were very serious.
Zhuo Quan said resentfully, his face full of secrecy, “I just overheard my parents talking about this.”
Lu Benwei nodded slightly. “Then what’s the effect of this Red Phoenix divine dicine that makes people chase after it?”
“According to rumors, the Red Phoenix divine dicine is like a divine phoenix. Once consud, it can allow a person to be reborn!” Zhuo Quan’s expression was solemn.
Lu Benwei was speechless.
Rebirth! No wonder it could make people flock to it!
“But which major power is so eager to obtain the Red Phoenix divine dicine?” Ji Han placed her hands on her chin and shook her head as she asked.
Zhuo Quan slowly let out a breath of turbid air. Then he nodded and continued, “Then you should know which mighty figure from the northern wilderness is about to die, right?”
Hearing this, Ji Han’s small mouth opened slightly, and her black eyes were filled with disbelief.
“Could it be…?”
When Ji Han was about to say that person’s na, Zhuo Quan made a silent gesture and said, “Miss, don’t say it out loud in case the walls have ears.”
At this mont, a commotion ca from outside the private room. It was a guest passing by the corridor.
Lu Benwei beca more and more interested in the power behind the Pegasus rcenary Corps.
“Brother Lu, since the deal has been made, it’s not convenient for
to stay with you,” Zhuo Quan hurriedly stood up and said.
Lu Benwei expressed that it was nothing. Before he said goodbye, he asked Zhuo Quan to do him a small favor.
…
East of the corner city, a place where the Pegasus rcenary Corps stayed. In a small inn.
The brawny man who had a conflict with Zhuo Quan today was gulping down the strong liquor.
“Pa da!”
The wine jar was knocked over by the waiter in a hurry, and the wine spilled all over the burly man’s body along the table.
“Humph!”
The burly man snorted angrily. He stretched out his big hand and grabbed the thin waiter in his hand. Then, he grabbed the wine jar with his other hand and aid it at the waiter’s head.
“Pa!”
The wine mixed with blood flowed down the waiter’s head.
The waiter was knocked unconscious and thrown to the ground like a dead dog by the burly man of the Pegasus rcenary Corps.
The innkeeper was attracted by the commotion in the lobby. Seeing that it was the people from the Pegasus rcenary Corps, he sighed and asked the other waiters to take the unconscious waiter away.
“Shopkeeper, co here!” the Pegasus rcenary Troop’s burly man roared.
The shopkeeper responded and bent over to the burly man.
“Let
ask you, when I was away today, did a man nad Lu Hongyi co to the shop?” the burly man asked angrily.
“Master, you’ve already reminded
several tis. I’ve always rembered,” the shopkeeper trembled as he spoke carefully, “Indeed, this person didn’t co today. But don’t worry. As long as Lu Hongyi appears, I’ll report to you.”
The burly man from the Pegasus rcenary Corps nodded in satisfaction and waved his hand to dismiss the shopkeeper. Suddenly, he was filled with anger and beat up a passing tourist.
“Master, what did I do wrong? I was just passing by.”
The innocent passerby was beaten black and blue, and his teeth fell out. He was very pitiful.
“Are you from Jiao City?” the burly man asked.
The innocent passerby thought for a while and nodded hurriedly.
“Since he’s a local of Jiao City, then all the more reason to beat you.” The burly man sneered.
“If you want to bla soone, bla your City Lord’s son for provoking
today!”
After saying that, the burly man gave the innocent passerby another round of beating!
…
The next morning.
“This is too lawless!”
Zhuo Qing slamd the table and stood up in the eting hall of the City Lord’s mansion.
An old servant echoed, “The Pegasus rcenary Corps has no respect for the law. They wantonly bully the citizens of Jiao City and the rchants who co to do business. The people in the city are boiling with resentnt.”
At this mont, another servant rushed in. “City Lord, there’s soone at the door to seek justice. He said that the Pegasus rcenary Corps snatched his wife and daughter last night and they haven’t returned yet.”
Zhuo Qing gritted his teeth in anger. “The Pegasus rcenary Corps is too despicable. Aren’t they afraid of retribution? The two of you, follow . We must get Zhuang Lang to give
an explanation!”
The old servant imdiately stopped Zhuo Qing. “City Lord, please reconsider. You have to think about the person behind the Pegasus rcenary Corps. If you offend him, it won’t be as simple as that.”
Zhuo Qing thought for a mont and could only swallow his anger.
At this mont, Zhuo Quan walked in and said, “Father, I’ve already found a way out of this situation.”
“What is it?” Zhuo Qing’s expression changed instantly, and he asked Zhuo Quan to take a seat.
“Father, do you know the person that the Pegasus rcenary Corps is looking for?”
“What?!”
“Father, don’t be agitated. Let
finish…”
Who knew that Zhuo Qing would be so angry after hearing Zhuo Quan?
“Lu Hongyi lured the Pegasus rcenary Corps to Jiao City and asked us to pay him to chase them away?”
“His heart is too f*cking black!”
Zhuo Quan’s mouth twitched as he thought to himself, ‘Father, Lu Hongyi isn’t only evil but he’s also the best!’
After thinking about it, Zhuo Qing said, “Forget it. As long as he can help expel the Pegasus rcenary Corps and not implicate us, we’ll give him the 100,000 catties of red pearls!”
After saying that, Zhuo Qing sent his old servant to handle this matter.
“What else do you want?” Zhuo Qing asked when he saw Zhuo Quan not leaving.
“Father, I want to see those people who were bullied by the Pegasus rcenary Corps.”
…
On the morning of the third day.
According to the past, there would already be rchants coming out to do business at this ti. However, there was no one on the streets of Corner City. It was like a dead city.
This was all thanks to the Pegasus rcenary Corps. They had no respect for the law and were lawless. When the citizens and rchants of Jiao City saw the people of the Pegasus rcenary Corps, they treated them like ferocious tigers.
