Seekers Without Bounds

Chapter 129 The Majesty of the Duke's Mansion

"Master Lu, I am possessed by a ghost. I have lost my mind. It is me..."

Yao Bulin kowtowed like crazy, and so did Shu Biao beside him.

“Yao Bulin, we have known each other for a long time, there is no need to do this.

You should have known the outcome the moment you betrayed me."

Lu Zhaohui's Siren's Fang seemed to come alive, circling around the two of them.

"Lu Xiaofan, come here first." Lu Zhaohui handed over a red knife.

"Aim for the heart and stab it."

Their mouths were sealed, revealing terrified eyes. Their ears kept ringing with the screams of their family members...

The methods of the bloodthirsty warrior are so deplorable that it would be an understatement to say that life is worse than death.

"We should leave now. Your aunt has sent people to keep a close eye on us." Shi Xunfei listened to Maoqiu's call outside the house.

Knowing that Ye Chenzi had also followed here, Shi Xunfei informed him via concentrated voice transmission.

Lu Zhaohui whispered a few words in Aunt Xue's ear, and he and Shi Xunfei left first.

Since Ye Chenzi is paying attention to this place, it means that he can no longer stay in this position.

"Brother Lu, when will you come again?" Lu Xiaoshuang wanted to be with Lu Zhaohui all the time, but everyone knew that was impossible.

Even if a gifted warrior wants to take a concubine, he would not choose an ordinary woman.

Aunt Xue looked at Lu Xiaoshuang coldly. With her woman's unique intuition, she knew that Lu Xiaoshuang's stupidity would drag down Lu Zhaohui one day.

"Wait a few days. Things have gotten a bit serious. All of you need to stay out of the spotlight."

I have told Aunt Xue everything that needs to be done, and I have to hurry back to the Duke's Mansion.

In response to the interrogation of the Miandu Prefecture Yinwei, everyone tried to show up as little as possible in the past few months.

Liu Ziyuan, the prefect of Miandu, took his brother back.

With their status, even if they really burned down Yixiao Tower, it wouldn't be a big problem. It would just be a bad reputation.

The eldest son of the Liu family, for an ordinary courtesan.

He got into a fight with someone in Yixiaolou and accidentally burned down the brothel in anger.

In comparison, Lu Zhaohui has no such worries at all.

First of all, he was an illegitimate child, even his father was born to a concubine.

His absurd behavior made more people aware of his existence, and he had no interest in the position of Duke in the first place.

His extraordinary behavior actually made his aunt, who regarded the title of Duke as a sure thing, feel more at ease.

Liu Ziyue was still on his way back, and he was saying harsh words in front of his younger brother Liu Ziyuan.

In his saliva, even if Lu Zhaohui was reborn ten thousand times and Yao Bulin was chopped up and fed to dogs countless times, it would not be enough to vent his anger.

Yin Wei from Miandu has already come to the Duke's Mansion. They want to take Lu Zhaohui back for questioning.

"See you, Madam Hou. I wonder if Lu Zhaohui is in the mansion."

Surprisingly, the Marquis’ wife actually stopped Yin Wei herself.

"Not anymore. Where he is has little to do with you."

The Marquis's wife leaned lazily on the desk, flipping through a yellowed ancient book, without even glancing at Commander Yin Wei.

“Madam, according to Master Liu, Lu Zhaohui bid a high price of one million amber crystals to spend one night with Xiao Mengxian at Yixiao Tower.

But he couldn't come up with so much money, and in anger he set fire to Yixiao Tower.

There was also a wood-type warrior in the Huasheng realm in Miandu who was killed by an unknown warrior.

We are just taking him back to question him, and we hope Madam Hou will be lenient."

If Yin Wei retreated without saying a word, he would not be able to stay in the Yin Mansion in Miandu.

But things are not going well now, I am stuck in a dilemma. In fact, taking on this case is a dead end in itself.

"Who are you that you want me to be accommodating to you? And that Liu Ziyue.

Just a piece of trash. You all believe what he says? Just based on what you just said.

If I were the prefect of Miandu, you could take off your uniform and leave now."

Putting the book down, Madam Hou’s pressure from the transformation realm was released.

Except for Commander Yin Wei, who had sweat on his forehead and was struggling to hold on, the rest of them just knelt down.

"Madam, please...please...show some mercy."

Commander Yin Wei struggled hard to hold on, veins bulging, and he finally managed to utter a few words.

"Asuwei, get them out! If you let them in next time, you will get out of the Duke's Mansion with them!"

The marquis' wife turned away, and when Asuwei made a gesture of invitation, the pressure in the room slowly dissipated.

Several kneeling Yin Wei were unable to stand up for a long time and had to wait for the commander to help them up one by one.

“Master Zhao Hui has been in the mansion since he returned from the border army and has never left.

Please report the situation to the governor truthfully."

Asuwei left the last words. Bang! The side door of the Duke's Mansion closed with a deafening sound.

"Commander Guan, let's not take on this kind of thing next time. Not only is it thankless, but you'll also get punished for no reason."

Yin Wei below was really frustrated and complained.

"Let's go." Commander Yin Wei could only wave his hand to signal retreat.

He was also feeling miserable. Who doesn't know how to get a good job? But how could he get a good job when he didn't have any background?

In another Liu Mansion, Liu Ziyue was kneeling in front of his ancestors' spirit tablets.

Holding the cane in hand, he waited for his father to come in and accept the punishment of the family law.

After kneeling all night, his father did not come. Liu Ziyue was dissatisfied from the beginning.

Until dawn, I am still feeling confused and looking forward to the family punishment.

If my father doesn't come, it means he has completely given up on me.

Although Liu Ziyuan did not enter the rank, he had given up a life of luxury.

Go to the border army to get some gold. Even though I didn't get the first level of elixir in the Five Cities Martial Arts Competition, I still participated.

But his elder brother was unwilling to go anywhere and just stayed in Miandu to eat, drink and enjoy himself with a bunch of bad friends.

Originally, the entire family was on the decline, and handing the title to him would be tantamount to destroying the entire century-old family.

At the Tea King's Mansion on the top floor of Cotton City, the Tea Prince looked at the briefing brought by his subordinates and took a rare careful look at it.

"I didn't expect that illegitimate child to be quite capable. Has anyone figured out how to kill Yuqi?"

“Your Highness is still unclear, the guards Lu Zhaohui brought back from Washi were only of mid-level rank.

We estimate that his strength is only close to the top level. He should have guards in secret." The subordinate reported.

"Should I say hello to Yin Wei?"

"No need, the small Yixiao Tower is not necessary. A master of the Huawu Realm can be used by him.

It's still worth something. It's much better than his useless father.

Keep him for now, maybe he can be useful when we really have to fight that tigress."

As the governor of Cotton City, the Tea Prince was the man behind the scenes and made the final decision, and the turmoil came to an end.

In the courtyard, Lu Zhaohui was eating grapes leisurely. Everything that happened seemed to have nothing to do with him.

"Your aunt is very good to you. She has helped you deal with so many problems." Shi Xunfei said, leaning against the pillar of the corridor.

“Wait until you really get to know my aunt before you praise her, and you can say it without exaggeration.

Children in Miandu are not afraid of evil spirits or big insects. If you raise the Marquis’ wife, it will definitely work.”

Lu Zhaohui never understood where his father got the courage to argue with his aunt given his ability.

"How did you get to know those orphan boys?"

Shi Xunfei couldn't understand why, with Lu Zhaohui's identity, he shouldn't be able to get in touch with those children from the lower class.

"If anyone else had asked me, I wouldn't have said anything, but you asked. I must make it clear."

Lu Zhaohui's mouth was moving, but no sound came out. A red teardrop flew to Shi Xunfei's ear.
