Chapter 343 - 343 Demon Pets
The room was empty. He walked to the bed and touched it with his hand. It was already cold. Apparently, the fourth master had disappeared a few days ago.
“Did he run away… Is he dead? Or was he taken away by the strange green qi?” Qin Huai was confused, as there was no trace left in the house.
Yin Rongen and Huang Qiguang walked in quickly. “Fourth Brother is gone?” The two of them had different expressions, their eyes filled with panic.
“A heaven’s favorite with five full patterns and king’s force shouldn’t have died in his own courtyard,” Huang Qiguang hinted. “It’s also possible that he was lured by someone familiar in the middle of the night to assassinate him.”
“Third brother must be joking,” Qin Huai replied coldly. “You said it yourself; Fourth Brother is a prodigy who has cultivated the king’s force with five full patterns. Even if he’s tricked out, falling into a trap would cause enough commotion to attract everyone’s attention.”
Qin Huai’s opinion of a five-full-pattern expert’s combat power had increased immensely after his battle with Mou Jinfu.
“What if it’s Fuzang?” Huang Qiguang smiled sinisterly.
“The greatest possibility is that it is still strange…” Yin Rongen snorted coldly.
Qin Huai only listened to half of Huang Qiguang’s words, knowing that this guy was skilled at stirring up trouble.
“Gang Leader!” a voice came from outside the door, and the three of them instantly stepped aside.
“Foster Father!” The three of them greeted Wen Zonghao in unison as he entered the room.
“There’s no need to investigate this matter.” Wen Zonghao waved his hand. “Pass down the order and keep this matter to yourself.”
After he finished speaking, he left quickly. This time, even the smile on Huang Qiguang’s face disappeared.
“Farewell!” Huang Qiguang forced a smile and quickly left the troublesome place, muttering, “Damn it, don’t tell me I’m right… I need to make money! I’m trying to earn money,” he mumbled as he disappeared into the night.
Qin Huai and Yin Rongen exchanged a glance and left without saying a word. The atmosphere in the Blood Poison Gang suddenly became heavy.
Qin Huai didn’t stay idle either. He walked into the pharmacy and started moving things out. He pocketed all sorts of vitality medicine and poisons.
Should he use them to cultivate the blood heart technique or the poison king technique?
The people in the pharmacy were all Qin Huai’s ‘trusted aides,’ so naturally, they turned a blind eye to Qin Huai’s actions and falsified the accounts.
At the same time, he could also gain some benefits from it. Regardless of Wen Zonghao’s motive for making him the head shopkeeper of the pharmacy, Qin Huai, with his identity and convenience, naturally wouldn’t be mistreated.
And from the looks of it now, Qin Huai’s chances were very high. Even so, his expenses were still substantial.
“Fifth Master, this is what you wanted.” Zhou Cunzhong carried a wooden box and ran into Qin Huai’s courtyard. He obediently handed over a list of names and a detailed map of some areas in the outer city. “All the properties marked on this are the Thunderbolt Gang’s.”
Qin Huai looked at the detailed map and nodded in satisfaction. To quickly break through to the fifth-level bone pattern realm, he needed to think of some unusual tactics.
For Qin Huai, the fastest way to cultivate was undoubtedly to gain experience points. And the best way to quickly collect experience points was, without a doubt, murder! The Thunderbolt Gang was the best choice.
The four gangs in the outer city had committed many crimes and drank the blood of innocent people. Of course, Qin Huai wouldn’t claim to be a saint who enforced justice on behalf of the heavens. He had killed countless people, far more than the killers of the four gangs, but he had never killed an innocent person.
Practicing martial arts and killing people with punches – it was good that he had a clear conscience. As for the members of the four gangs, they wouldn’t die in vain.
“Fifth Master, do you want me to bring my brothers…”
“No need,” Qin Huai interrupted Zhou Cunzhong. He then frowned when he saw the box in Zhou Cunzhong’s hand shaking. “What’s in the box?” He suddenly smelled a familiar scent.
“This…” Zhou Cunzhong smiled obsequiously and opened the box, revealing a small dog. However, this puppy’s fur was black and shiny, and its body emitted vigorous blood essence.
“A dog with a demon bloodline?” Qin Huai understood. It was banned in the Great Nether to buy and sell creatures with demonic bloodlines.
The emperor and the state overseers of the various states all prohibited the sale of such things. After all, no one knew the next stage – was it a creature with the bloodline of a demon or a demon? If anything went wrong, the lives of the people might be plunged into misery. However, those wealthy individuals loved these creatures as pets.
Zhou Cunzhong quickly said, “Recently, a new batch of goods has been obtained from Qingzhou. They have just arrived in Qingzhou City. There are several kinds of tigers and dogs, and there’s a craze in the city to raise these. Many rich and powerful people were secretly raising their own. Fifth Master, if you like it, I’ll give it to you…”
“No need!” Qin Huai loathed demons to the extreme. He could still accept them as warhorses, but not as pets.
His mind was filled with the memories of the demon wave in Pingnan City.
