Chapter 131 - Fatty Xue's Reappearance
Jiu Shen did not have to wait for long before Theia sent him back a ssage transmission.
"Master, I’ve found a perfect place for the kids to train and it isn’t that far from the store. It was previously an illegal fighting arena for savage beasts, but I already told the forr owner to leave the place. You might want to check this place yourself and see if it is to your liking." Theia’s gentle voice traveled to Jiu Shen’s ears and he could not help but smile at how fast she was able to find a suitable place to train the young n. Although it was owned by soone before, he didn’t care one bit since they were also related to shady and illegal beast fighting.
"Good! Co back here and tell these kids to help you clean up the place... Ah nevermind, I’ll look after them myself. Just release your spiritual power so that I can sense your location." Since he was idle and had nothing to do, Jiu Shen decided to supervise the clean up himself.
Theia didn’t want Jiu Shen to do it, but she didn’t dare retort since she knew his personality well. Once he decides on things, it was rare for him to change his mind. "Yes, master!"
She then released a stream of spiritual power above the skies that looked like a beam of traceless light. No one was able to perceive anything due to their low cultivation level, but Jiu Shen who was in the distance was able to sense it imdiately. He closed his eyes for a mont and used his strong spiritual power to create a map in his head. He then silently marked the location of Theia before he opened his eyes.
"All of you, follow to a place." Jiu Shen said to the young n in an impassive voice that made the one hundred of them feel a trace of worry. The mont they were born, they were already fated to beco servants of the Silveria Imperial Family, so they had stayed in one of the imperial family’s training facilities where servants like them were trained according to their gender and expertise. So when facing this unfamiliar man that suddenly beca their master, they felt quite uneasy and anxious. Nonetheless, they didn’t dare disobey him and just silently trailed behind him with nervous looks. Although so of them tried to put on a calm look, the occasional shivering of their legs betrayed their unsettled emotions.
The imperial guards were surprised at Jiu Shen’s sudden actions, but they still helped him in organizing the young n, while so of them remained to wait for the emperor and the four guardians.
Just then, Jiu Shen saw a familiar figure in the distance. It was a fat man that looked like a walking mountain with all his exposed fats jiggling as he walked. ’Isn’t this Fatty Xue from the Xue Family? Why is he here?’
Jiu Shen was surprised to see him since it has been a while since he had last seen this fatty. He can still rember that this Fatty Xue proposed a business deal to him, but Jiu Shen rcilessly rejected his offer. What was surprising was that this fellow was already in the 3rd-rank Crusader realm! Furthermore, Jiu Shen can sense a familiar aura that reeked out of his body and he could not help but frown when he saw this.
"Corpse Qi..." Jiu Shen muttered to himself with a cold look on his face.
Not far away, Fatty Xue was wearing an enraged look as he walked down the streets. His beady eyes were narrowed into slits making it almost indistinguishable. Each step he took was forceful as if he was venting his frustrations.
"Fucking shit! Who the hell is that fucking slut?! She actually dared to throw away this Lord Fatty from my own territory! What a damnable bitch! Did she really think that I’m not able to do anything to her just because she possesses a bit of strength?! I’ll fucking call so people and take my revenge! I’ll make her pay for humiliating this Lord Fatty!" Fatty Xue balled his large fists in anger as he muttered through the gaps of his teeth. His chubby cheeks trembled as killing intent gushed out of his narrowed eyes.
He was just having fun in his beast fighting arena when a familiar-looking young lady went inside and promptly asked him to scram. And as the owner of the place, he imdiately flew into rage and asked his subordinates to capture her, but who knew that the woman was actually an expert, so he could only watch as she killed his subordinates one by one. Left with no choice, he imdiately escaped by himself while leaving his subordinates there. Although Fatty Xue had an inkling that he had already seen the young woman sowhere, he could not rember where he had seen her exactly.
"Just who the fuck was that damnable bitch?! I don’t fucking care even if she is soone from a noble family!" He strode away while occasionally stomping his feet in rage. He didn’t even see Jiu Shen who was not that far from him. If he did, his anger would surely explode even more...
Jiu Shen watched Fatty Xue’s disappearing back figure with a pondering look. "It appears that the Xue Family is related to the Undying Corpse Sect. To think that there are so many variables hidden within this tiny empire. Things are getting interesting..." He muttered in his heart as he led everyone to Theia’s location.
After a little more than twenty minutes of walking, they arrived in front of an establishnt that looked normal on the surface, but after everyone stepped inside, they saw several mangled bodies and bloody corpses everywhere. This scene made the one hundred young n apprehensive that their legs almost caved in from the terror that they felt. It was the first ti they had seen such a grueso sight, so their reaction was understandable.
On the other hand, the imperial guards that ca with Jiu Shen beca alert as they surrounded the young n while surveying the surroundings with wary gazes. They also held their weapons tightly and prepared themselves for any surprise attacks.
Their coordination and alertness were indeed extraordinary for mortal soldiers that even Jiu Shen silently praised them in his heart.
Swoosh!
A lithe shadow suddenly appeared in front of them which made everyone other than Jiu Shen step back in alarm. However, when they saw the face of the newcor, the imperial guards imdiately sighed in relief.
"Master, this is the place that I told you about. What do you think about it?" Theia asked in a mild voice as she looked at Jiu Shen’s face with unexpressed infatuation in her eyes. Although it wasn’t distinguishable, Jiu Shen still perceived her complicated emotions as if she was hiding sothing from him. He was curious about this but Jiu Shen didn’t ask her since Theia didn’t plan to tell him about it.
Jiu Shen glanced around the establishnt and nodded his head in approval. "This place is big enough to accommodate these kids, but it needs to be properly cleaned up since it reeks the sll of blood. Anyway, you may go back to the store now, Theia." He said with a calm look.
Theia bowed her head obediently and was about to leave when she suddenly heard Jiu Shen’s voice transmission ringing in her head. "Tell Ren Shuang to monitor the Xue Family for . I just want to confirm sothing, but rember to tell him not to expose himself."
Theia nodded her head imperceptibly before she left the place with a faint swooshing sound.
Jiu Shen took a glance at the shivering young n and said indifferently. "Your first job is to clean this place. As for these corpses, burn them..." Jiu Shen’s silver eyes remained tranquil as if burning human corpses was but a simple task.
All the kids felt the coldness in Jiu Shen’s voice, making them reveal fearful looks. Even the imperial guards could not help but feel slightly scared of him. The one hundred young n imdiately scrambled to find so cleaning tools to begin their job. They were afraid that Jiu Shen might punish them if they delayed any longer
The place beca chaotic with the young n’s unorganized cleanup, but Jiu Shen just stood there unmoved. He then glanced at the stunned imperial guards and said. "All of you can go back to the store to report this incident to the emperor. This place is an illegal establishnt set up by one of the noble families. He might find out sothing if he investigates this thoroughly."
The imperial guards were perplexed at his words but they didn’t dally for long especially after hearing that this place was an illegal establishnt of a noble family. Such a cri was definitely punishable!
"We will imdiately report this to His Majesty, Wine Master Jiu." The imperial guards cupped their fists at Jiu Shen before they sprinted out of the place.
Now, only Jiu Shen was left to supervise the one hundred young n.
