Chapter 463 -464: The Person Who Threw the Torch on My Bed

This place stored some food and valuable items, as well as some weapons.

Qi Yue wasn’t interested in the food and weapons, so she didn’t take them.

She picked out a few of the better antique ornaments and gathered them up.

Of course, this was also to cover up the secret of the space she was carrying.

There were also several boxes of silver coins, all shiny bars of ten taels each, which Qi Yue unceremoniously took all for herself.

After doing all this, she could already hear the screams of agony and the sound of footsteps coming and going above ground.

It seemed that a large group of people were heading to the inn!

Qi Yue suspected that Boss Ma had returned just in time, but Qingzhu said it was Sheng Cuihua and the Longting Guards who had arrived.

“Whatever, we’re done here anyway, time to go!”

The two quickly entered the tunnel and sped up their pace to leave the city.

Having been here once before and without any concerns this time, they directly turned on the exploratory flashlight to light the path underfoot, hurrying toward the tunnel exit at a marching speed.

At the same time, quite a few people had already followed them into the tunnel.

They were all bandits fleeing for their lives.

Qi Yue was right, just as Boss Ma left, Boss Ma’s third brother also arrived with people.

As soon as the two brothers met, they immediately sensed something was off.

At that time, the pack of wolves also arrived.

The bandits and the wolves fought fiercely, and both Ma brothers, overwhelmed, fled the tunnel to save their lives!

With such a commotion, the Imperial City Division had already arrived, and of course, the higher-level officials were notified.

It wasn’t long before Sheng Cuihua, who was guarding the Emperor’s safety in the palace, also received the news!

That old face instantly turned the color of liver!

He couldn’t care about the Imperial Palace anymore!

Sheng Cuihua left half of the Longting Guards to protect the Emperor and hurried with the other half to the house.

He hadn’t even entered the second courtyard when he shouted loudly!

“Cuihua! Where are the Wolf Guards you were supposed to be watching…”

A strange noise came, and the scene before him was something this old father couldn’t bear to see.

Next to the well in the courtyard, a man and a woman were entangled together.

The woman was naked; it was none other than his daughter, Sheng Cuihua.

As for the other man, he was the Wolf Breeder who fed his beloved Wolf Guards!

Strong feelings of anger and shame surged through Sheng Cuihua’s heart, and he “swished” out the long knife from his waist and drove it into the back of the Wolf Breeder.

In the throes of passion and unaware of anything, Sheng Cuihua received a face full of blood, which instantly brought her back to her senses.

The next second, stunned by the scene before her, she screamed and covered her face as she ran back to her room.

Earlier, Qi Yue had seen the courtyard was empty and thought of playing a prank on Sheng Cuihua, so she casually released a bit of good medicine.

However, she hadn’t expected that there was a garden next to the courtyard, which Sheng Cuihua used for keeping and training the wolves.

Usually, to avoid suspicion, these wolves were kept underground, and only released at night.

When Qi Yue and Qingzhu came in, they didn’t disturb Sheng Cuihua and the Wolf Breeder, but they couldn’t fool these wolves.

All these beasts, accustomed to consuming flesh and blood regularly, followed the scent of strangers immediately.

Once the wolves were on the move, they alerted both the Wolf Breeder and Sheng Cuihua.

Simultaneously, the two came out to check, and thus both were ensnared.

Happening to meet by the well, they immediately clung to each other.

Actually, as a martial arts practitioner, Sheng Cuihua originally knew how to handle such a situation.

However, being of such an age and single for so long, she momentarily couldn’t restrain her desires.

That led to what happened after.

The death of the Wolf Breeder posed no loss for her, as she intended to kill him after everything was settled anyway.

With such a mindset and status, Sheng Cuihua was certainly not your average humiliated woman.

Therefore, when she got dressed and came out again, she was once again enveloped in a murderous aura.

Upon learning that the Wolf Guards had already run out and killed quite a few bandits, Sheng Cuihua drew her sword and dashed into the dark night.

Although her father had already killed the Wolf Breeder who took advantage of her, she still felt it was not enough!

In her heart, anyone bitten and not let go by the wolves was her enemy.

The father and daughter duo chased after the bandits to the inn in the Western Suburbs, only to find that the bandits had disappeared without a trace.

The originally well-trained pack of wolves kept circling inside the inn as if they had lost their direction.

At her father’s command, several Longting Guards turned the inn upside down and quickly discovered the tunnels and the secret chambers.

By then, the robbed nobles and officials in the city had all rushed over.

Those who needed to report to the authorities did so, while others cried out in the streets, all begging the Imperial Court for justice.

After much commotion, dawn was almost breaking.

The citizens of Fengdu didn’t dare to venture outside, all of them perched on their walls, eagerly discussing the night’s events with their neighbors.

“Last night, someone ran over our roof. Did you hear it?”

“Of course, I heard it. Those bandits are really bold, causing chaos in Fengdu like outlaws!”

“Exactly. I heard they were prepared long ago, even dug a tunnel to the western city gate!”

“I heard too. Old Man Ma really pulled off a big one! He managed to escape after all that!”

“But this time, they surprisingly didn’t harm us common folks. That’s really something!”

“Yeah, take whatever, just as long as they don’t rob us!”

“But speaking of which, what was with the loud wolf howling last night? Where did those wolves come from in the city?”

“I don’t know, but they say they were last seen being taken away by Great General Sheng of the Longting Guard. Could he be the one who kept them?”

“I never thought someone would keep wolves in the Capital City! We’ll need to be more careful when going out.”

“Hey, the bandits leave, and then come the wolves, when will this ever end!”

“…”

As the citizens discussed atop the walls, the officials debated in the Imperial Court.

At the break of dawn, the frightened officials gathered for the grand court assembly.

They happened to catch Emperor Han Linghe, who had not slept well for two nights, and he immediately launched into a severe reprimand.

From the Imperial City Division to the Longting Guard, from the highest-ranking officials to local officials of Fengdu, there was not a single one whose face Han Linghe did not redden with his scolding.

Even the chief of the Imperial Guards, Great General Sheng, was criticized as useless, unable to handle even bandits.

“And that assassin! The one who threw a torch onto my bed, must be found immediately, at once, to be torn into a thousand pieces!”

While Han Linghe was berating his officials, the bandit leaders Old Man Ma and Young Man Ma from Tuyun Mountain were also holding a big meeting.

The inn had been discovered, and the secret tunnel destroyed.

All the loot from two nights of raiding, involving hundreds of people, was lost.

Not only that, but even the little food and silver coins they had saved from running the inn were taken away by the Imperial City Division officers.

Old Man Ma was so irate he wished he could charge into Fengdu City and execute the Emperor of Nanyue on the spot.

Meanwhile, the most relaxed and carefree of all was Qi Yue.

At that moment, she was lying in the large basket of a hot air balloon, drifting leisurely toward Nanling.

Originally, she planned to directly visit Gemidu City to scout the situation, but Qingzhu strongly opposed it.

He argued that going to Gemidu City was as risky as heading straight to Nanling, and it would be better to meet Zhao Xiyan first and plan thereafter.

Qi Yue thought there was sense in that, especially since the relevant information from Nanling had not yet reached her. It would be good to see Zhao Xiyan again.

The last time they had parted in haste, and she had missed him these past few days.
