Although the Wang family is rich, they only pretend to be big bosses in Qingyu Town. If they go to a bigger place, they won't be able to line up, so they raise a few martial artists, only around a dozen of them were beaten up by Lin Ze and his daughter.
Lin Ze and Lin Xiangdie were like a hot knife through butter. They rushed all the way to the main hall of the Wang Clan, blocking the escape of the Wang Clan members.
This time, there was no need for the two of them to say anything. Master Wang grabbed Madam Wang and kneeled on the ground and kowtowed. "Heroes, I know my wrongs. Please let me go. There are small and old ones here. Please show mercy!"
Their hearts were once again impacted. They never thought that the old master of the Wang Clan, who was bullying them in the past and didn't even think of them as human beings, would now kneel in front of them, scaring them to death.
Mu Xiaoling stepped forward. "This is the old master of the Wang family, Madam Wang …" She looked at the two young men beside Madam Wang. Her gaze landed on the face of one of the stupefied men. "This is the Eldest Young Master. The one beside him is the Second Young Master." Her gaze finally returned to the Lin Family father and daughter, "The strong preys on the weak, their lives are in your hands right now. Do you want them to live or die?"
Lin Xiangdie bit her lip and turned around to shake her head. "I don't like to fight. I think it's too dirty."
Lin Ze shook his head as well. "They're already unworthy of us father and daughter to fight."
"Then let's go." Mu Xiaoling smiled as she looked down on the father and daughter of the Lin Family. They did not bully the weak and did not fear the strong. Such a talent was suited to follow behind her.
After exiting the Wang family, the three of them opened two rooms in the inn and prepared to leave tomorrow.
It was late at night when Mu Xiaoling saw that Lin Xiangdie was sleeping soundly. She quietly got up and put on a set of night clothes before quietly leaving the tavern.
Tonight's sky was very clear. The large moon hung in the sky, emitting a gentle moonlight.
Mu Xiaoling moved swiftly like a ghost in the night as she quietly climbed up the walls of the manor.
During the day, she had already memorized the general structure of the Royal Mansion in her heart. Now, it was as if she had entered a realm where no one was around. She quickly made her way to the Wang Clan's storehouse.
The storehouse was locked by a large lock and the key was in Lady Wang's hands. However, how could an ancient lock like this trouble her?
Mu Xiaoling took a sharp hairpin from her head and fiddled with the lock. The lock made a "kacha" sound as it was opened and she walked into the warehouse.
The Wang family's storage room was not small. On the left was a box of gold and silver, and on the right was a few jade artifacts. They were all valuable items.
All these years, the Wang family had been doing a great job in the Clear Fish Town. Even the county magistrate had to stand aside, and thus, they had plundered a lot of people's ointment.
Mu Xiaoling had already made up her mind. Life can be spared, but the Wang Family's property must not be left behind. Without money, the Wang Family couldn't afford to support any martial artists nor those guards.
She placed everything in her spatial ring and was about to turn around and leave when a silver light flashed from the wall and shook her eyes.
There was something else on the wall?
Mu Xiaoling walked over curiously. It was a painting and it wasn't a masterpiece. She didn't know why, but there was a small hole in the painting. The light from earlier had been reflected from that hole.
She opened the painting. Behind it was a secret compartment. However, this hidden compartment was quite strange. There was only an empty wooden box.
"It's fine if they have a secret compartment, but why are they empty?"
Mu Xiaoling moved the box suspiciously. She realized that she couldn't pick up the box. She turned it around and saw that the wall had cracked open to reveal a secret room.
The secret chamber was not too big, but it was filled with weapons. Weapons, swords, halberds, all sorts of things were piled up on the ground. On one of the walls, there was actually a large black plum flower carved into it!
Black Plum Blossom!
Mu Xiaoling was startled. Could it be that the Wang Family was related to this Black Plum Flower?!
She put all the weapons into her spatial ring, her mind in a bit of a mess.
Forget it, let's go to that old master Wang's study and have a look. There might be some clues.
The Wang family was frightened today and went to sleep early. The study room was dark, but this darkness was nothing to the warriors, so Mu Xiaoling could clearly see the furnishings in the room. After carefully examining them, she managed to find out all the contracts of the Wang family.
Mu Xiaoling simply burned the fire to ashes. Since there weren't any here, he could only go to the bedroom.
However, just as she was about to enter the Wang Clan Master's bedroom, a strange aura similarly floated into that bedroom.
Mu Xiaoling was a step too slow. She quickly climbed onto the roof and gently lifted up the tile as she peeked inside.
The Wang family's old master lit up the lamp. He was dressed neatly, obviously not going to sleep. On the other side was a woman dressed in black. It was Li Xiuniang who had escaped last time!
Li Xiu Niang's face didn't look too good. The previous mission had failed, and all the people she brought had been wiped out, along with another Vice Hallmaster. She was very dissatisfied with the previous mission, so she asked impatiently, "How's the situation going?"
"It's all done. The weapons are all in the storage room. They should be enough for 2,000 people." The Wang family's old master humbly kneeled down and said, "Master, it's just that your subordinate's house was almost destroyed because of these weapons and was killed by someone."
Hearing this, a bad premonition rose in Li Xiu Niang's heart, "What did you say!"
"There is a father and daughter as well as a little girl who seem to suddenly know about your subordinate's forging of a weapon. They actually came to the mansion today to force your subordinate to hand over the weapon, and your subordinate swore to the death to not submit, which is why I forced them to retreat. I only made fierce statements saying that I would kill your subordinate's entire family."
"There's actually such a thing!" Li Xiu Niang snorted coldly, "Where are they? They are courting death!"
The Wang Clan's Old Master hurriedly said, "I'll stay in the inn."
Li Xiuniang waved her hand, "Alright, I'll take care of this matter. I'll go get the weapon first."
"Yes." The Wang family's old master immediately called the steward to lead some men to the storage room to bring out their weapons. Not long later, he saw the steward run back in panic. "Master's not good. The storage room has been stolen!"
Old master Wang staggered and almost fell to the ground, "What did you say!"
"When I went to the warehouse, I found that the lock had been knocked open. The door to the warehouse was opened, and all the things inside were gone!" Speaking of which, the old butler turned pale and stole a glance at Li Xiuniang, "Weapons..." The weapons are gone as well. "
"What did you say!" Li Xiu Niang stood up and smashed the table in front of her with her palm. "If you mess up my Devil Sect's big event this time, you won't be able to afford to lose ten of your dog lives!"
The Wang family's old master sat on the ground and was stupefied. "That's impossible. How could he be found when he's so hidden …"
