Chapter 776.2 – Searching, Relative, Middle-Aged Woman
As if he had not seen the gaze of Lord Ling Yun seeking for help, Yue Yang stood there as if he was a normal passerby.
The wooden-faced old man from the tavern stepped forward.
Immediately following after him was the old beggar who had been sleeping on the ground and the old woman who had been sweeping the floor.
The three of them went up to the stone pile, each picked up a fragment and carefully took it into their arms, saying nothing throughout the process before leaving again in silence. The wooden-faced old man continued to go back to the tavern to drink, the old beggar continued to find a corner to lie down and sleep, while the old woman continued to clean the street as if nothing had ever happened.
The group of veterans came forward in droves, doing the exact same thing.
Each picked up a piece of rubble.
And took it away, pretending as if nothing had ever happened… Only Fatty Hai, Ye Kong and the rest stood there rooted to the ground, staring blankly as the people of Conquering City gradually returned to normal again.
Fifty kilometers outside the city, there was a Heaven Rank Thief, flying with lightning speed.
Within fifty kilometers of the Conquering City, teleportation was forbidden, this thief, who possessed the strength of a Heaven Ranker, sneaked out of the city at the moment the statue of the Snake Demon shattered into pieces, taking advantage of the fact that everyone in the city was still shocked still and sped away as fast as he could, intending to bring this news out of the city.
With a kilometer to go, it was just a matter of seconds before he broke out.
The Heaven Ranked Thief took out a golden teleportation crystal from his pocket, this teleportation crystal was worth ten thousand Heaven Realm gold coins and was a precious teleportation crystal that no ordinary city lord would easily use. Now, he took it out to ensure his safe departure. He believed that this piece of news would definitely be worth more than ten thousand gold, and he was confident that he could sell it for thousands or maybe even ten thousand times higher.
Just as he rushed out of the fifty kilometer range and broke away from the teleportation prohibition, his hand crushed the golden teleportation crystal.
The light of teleportation flashed.
A successful escape was imminent.
The Heaven Ranked Thief’s face showed a happy and pleased expression.
He didn’t sense that behind him, a seemingly harmless red rose, was coming after him.
That red rose shot towards the thief quietly through the air, lightly piercing the back of the Heaven Ranked Thief’s head, and the stalk pierced out from his brow… The teleportation light flashed at that exact same moment, but what was taken away was only a dead body that didn’t even know how it had died.
At this time in the Conquering City, a middle-aged man who was tending to his flowers in his flower garden, criticized the girl who had been selling snow malt sweets a little angrily: “I told you not to take action but you wouldn’t listen to me, see how far you let that bug run, and even wasted one of my roses! The girl who was criticized stuck out her tongue in response while promising never to do it again.
“How much are these snow malt sweets?” Without realising when, Yue Yang had made his way to the two and casually uncovered the girl’s basket while grabbing a handful of sweets and asking casually.
“I’m not selling to you, I only sell my sweets to those who are pleasing in my eyes.” The girl rolled her eyes, she had never seen such a rude person as Yue Yang, who would so casually uncover a young girl’s basket? She had wanted to snatch back the candy, but Yue Yang had stuffed it into his mouth immediately and started chewing so she could only roll her eyes in protest.
“Then it’s free.” Yue Yang’s comprehension was out of the world, and he straightforwardly picked up the plate inside the baskets which held the sweets and poured all the sweets into his pocket.
The girl squealed in shock and almost forgot to cry.
What kind of person is this?
Stealing even a young girl’s stuff?
The middle-aged man looked at them lovingly, like a parent seeing their children fight and bicker amongst themselves.
Besides bullying girls, Yue Yang actually still knew to do the important stuff. He took out a picture of Fourth Mother and showed it to the middle-aged man, asking with some sincerity, “May I ask if you have seen a person similar to the one in the painting? If you know her, can you tell me a little about her? Even if it’s just a little bit, I’ve been looking for her for ages!”
The middle-aged man glanced towards the portrait and shook his head slightly, indicating that he did not recognize it.
And seemed to ask casually, “Who is she to you?”
“Family.” Yue Yang answered truthfully.
“I really envy her, there are still relatives who came all the way to the Heaven Realm to look for her, alas my relatives, I’m afraid……..” the middle-aged man seemed to remember something from the past, and his expression turned a little gloomy, but he recovered almost immediately, and smiled at Yue Yang while looking at him: “Brat, did you come up here to travel, or are you mainly looking for your relatives? I have one thing that requires some help but so far I have been unable to find a suitable person, can you give me some help?”
“Take care of the baby and don’t look for me!” As Yue Yang said this, he looked at the exasperated girl.
“Who are you calling a baby? Why don’t you look at yourself, you are only in your twenties, and simply a fart, I’m much older than you!” The girl was pissed, although her appearance might look young but it didn’t mean she was easy to bully.
“Children shouldn’t interrupt when adults are talking.” Yue Yang made a ‘go play in the mud while you’re at it’ gesture, making the girl even more furious and ready to blow up.
“I’m not asking you to look after her, she, ah, I’m still not yet at ease letting her run around, maybe after a while, I’ll take her back to visit! I am asking you to look for two old friends, we were originally three, some years ago, we met some very powerful enemies, I was wounded and the whereabouts of my two friends are unknown, I would like to ask you to look for them.” The middle-aged man took off a half-divine ring from his own finger and handed it to Yue Yang, indicating that it was a token to prove his identity.
“Such an easy task as finding someone, feel free to give it to me!” When Yue Yang saw that merely looking for two people could land him a half-divine ring, he immediately U-turned and agreed loudly.
“This guy is not reliable at all!” The girl had a headache, she felt that Yue Yang would definitely mess things up.
“Wait for my good news.” Yue Yang ignored the girl and happily turned around to leave, while admiring the ‘Flash’ half-divine ring in his hands. The girl was so angry that she chased after Yue Yang, letting off several kicks towards Yue Yang’s back, but Yue Yang seemed to have eyes behind his back, each kick from the girl was cleverly dodged. This pissed the girl even more so that she angrily hurled the basket in her hands at him and raised her fist in rebuke: “You this big bully, this little girl will one day pass you, and when the time comes, I will help the peasants by eliminating you, see how long you can act so cockily!”
“It’s a beautiful day!” Yue Yang laughed, ignoring the angry girl, and left in a relaxed mood.
“Bastard!” The girl was about to cry.
“What an interesting fellow, I wonder whose family does he come from?” After seeing this scene, the middle-aged man thought for a long time and finally shook his head, unable to determine the answer.
