Kapitel 17: Chapter 16: Someone Behind This Child
Translator: 549690339
Peace Town, surrounded by mountains on all sides, had inconvenient transportation, and very few outsiders came.
Everyone in the group was dressed in luxury and had extraordinary temperament, each possessing no small strength.
Zhou Dao could guess with his toes that these people must be from the wealthy families in Pingjiang City.
These people came for Old Yuan and seemed respectful, but Old Yuan's reaction suggested a subtle relationship between them.
However, Zhou Dao didn't have time to think about that.
At this moment, he was already being watched.
Two experts of the Refining Realm Forth Transformation followed him closely.
Both of them kept a deliberate distance, only ensuring that Zhou Dao stayed within their line of sight.
What was Zhou Dao's level of strength?
Not to mention the Refining Realm Forth Transformation, even experts of the same realm might not be able to deceive his senses.
"Why are they watching me? I'm not Old Yuan's grandson." Zhou Dao curled his lip and walked into an alley, making a direct turn.
The two experts exchanged glances, suddenly increased their speed, took a few steps, and entered the alley, covering dozens of feet in just a few inches.
"Hmm? Where did that guy go?"
Inside the alley, there was nobody, not even a shadow.
"Lost him? We don't know his relationship with that person, and we may be punished when we return."
"If we had known earlier, we should've subdued the kid first and interrogated him."
The two experts looked ugly and thought handling a young man would be as easy as pie.
But who could have thought that they would lose him with their Refining Realm Forth Transformation strength.
"I hate stalkers."
At this moment, an indifferent voice came from behind.
The two experts shook violently, about to turn around.
Suddenly, a terrifying aura soared into the sky, and strong blood energy surged like a bursting dam, coming from all directions.
This kind of pressure turned their faces pale instantly, their bones trembling, making a "creaking" sound.
At the same time, a "rumbling" sound echoed in their ears.
"This... this is... Chattering Thunder!?"
The two experts revealed fear.
They never dreamed that what they thought would be a simple task would lead them to face an expert of the Refining Realm Seventh Transformation.
Apart from the three Great City Guards of the Demon Control Department, how could there be such a high-level expert in Peace Town?
"Damn, why did I have such bad luck!" The same thought rose up in the two's hearts.
They were trembling with fear, and before they could see clearly, the violent blood energy surged like a tidal wave, overwhelming them and knocking them out.
"Ah, being a Demon Sealing Master is not safe these days," Zhou Dao shook his head.
He had kept a low profile, but he was still being watched. It was a disaster falling from the sky.
Although he didn't put these two wastes in his eyes.
But he really doesn't like such unnecessary trouble.
Zhou Dao liked the feeling of control and being at ease.
Any accident, surprise, or unexpected events...none of them were welcome.
"Almost made me late for work," Zhou Dao bent down and began searching through the two men's bodies.
"Hmm? You're actually carrying so many taels of silver, hiding your wealth. It's too dangerous to carry this much money outside."
Out of concern, Zhou Dao stuffed the hundred taels of silver notes he had found on them into his pocket.
"Hmm? You, a man, are wearing a jade pendant? Not nice-looking."
"This dagger doesn't match your clothes."
"This ring is too small; you need to lose some weight!"
...
Under Zhou Dao's meticulous "care," the two experts were like being skinned, and anything of value was automatically transferred to Zhou Dao's waist pocket.
Zhou Dao didn't have much savings, and the resources and treasures he received from offering to the Ancestral Master were all used for cultivation.
Once he broke through to the Refining Realm Ninth Transformation, Zhou Dao would head to Pingjiang City.
To stand firm in that gold-flooded city, he needed some savings.
With the meager salary of a Demon Sealing Master, even in Peace Town, it was barely enough to maintain a living.
Zhou Dao patted the Green Coiling Treasure Bag, contentedly walked away.
Only two bare figures, covered in thin clothes, were left in the alley.
...
Late at night.
Inside the Sky-characters Private Room of Drunk Spring brothel.
"Waste, you even lost a living person." Yuan Shaobai slammed the table, his eyes flashing with ferocity.
Two experts of the Refining Realm Forth Transformation had lost track of a town commoner.
If this got out, it would be a terrible joke, a huge disgrace to him.
Most importantly, those two wastes were carried back, stark naked except for a thin shirt when they were found.
Thinking about this, Yuan Shaobai was furious, unable to restrain himself.
"Young Master, there's no need to get angry; I've already asked them what happened, and it's not their fault."
At this point, a young man in black, fanning himself with a feather fan, spoke up calmly.
"An expert stepped in and knocked them out."
"Expert? What kind of expert?" Yuan Shaobai asked, calming down.
"Refining Realm Seventh Transformation!" the young man in black said solemnly.
"Chattering Thunder!?" Yuan Shaobai's face changed slightly.
He had to be careful with such a high-level expert.
"So he's got a Chattering Thunder expert backing him up? Could it be Yuan..."
"Impossible, there's no way he has someone of that level by his side now," the young man in black interrupted Yuan Shaobai before he could finish.
"As far as I know, there's only one expert of the seventh transformation in Peace Town right now."
"Chen Qinggang!?" Yuan Shaobai revealed a wary look.
Chen Qinggang was a Capital Guard of the Demon Control Department, backed by the Imperial Court.
No matter how prominent his background was, getting involved with the Demon Control Department was always troublesome.
"Chen Qinggang, a respectable Capital Guard, actually stepped in for a kid?" Yuan Shaobai wondered, his eyes flashing with wisdom.
"Could that kid be Chen Qinggang's illegitimate son?"
The young man in black hesitated for a moment, then nodded. "It's not impossible."
"Otherwise, given Chen Qinggang's status, he wouldn't have shown up there, let alone issued a warning."
Yuan Shaobai pondered for a moment and felt it made sense.
"So he's a bastard. Chen Qinggang can pull that off, actually keeping his bastard son under his watch." Yuan Shaobai sneered.
"Regardless of whether he is Chen Qinggang's illegitimate son, I don't think the kid is suspicious. It's not worth offending the expert behind him," the young man in black advised.
"Forget it, a bastard isn't worth my distraction." Yuan Shaobai waved his hand, a cold light flashing in his eyes.
"I'll remember this for now!"
The young man in black shuddered but remained composed.
Their Young Master was a vengeful person, as ruthless as a poisoned wolf. Anyone who crossed him ended up in a bad situation.
Chen Qinggang had snubbed him, so naturally, he wouldn't let it go easily.
Clearly, Chen Qinggang had been targeted by this young master of the Yuan family.
"Chen Qinggang, wait for me, I'll play you to death sooner or later!" Yuan Shaobai sneered.
