547: Yang Zhaoning's Threat

Yang Zhaoning's Threat

Chi Shuyan was in a hurry and didn't say much to Lu Chengfu and Yu Jinzhou. The two of them saw Li Yu. Lu Chengfu, in particular, was fond of the little guy, and picked him up.2

Relieved, Chi Shuyan left. Looking at the time, she thought about how she was supposed to go back to the Qi residence with the man tonight. Just in case, Chi Shuyan sent a message to Qi Zhenbai and told him to go back to the Qi residence first; she would return later after she went out for a bit with her dormmates.

After sending the message and seeing that there was no reply for a long time, Chi Shuyan guessed that the man was probably busy, so she didn't disturb him anymore.

In the lounge of a luxurious villa, Wu Fuzhang and Yang Zhaoning were in a good mood today. Yang Zhaoning still felt very regretful. "Master, it's a pity that the other brat escaped. Using that brat to refine the Ghost Pill would have been the best."

How could Wu Fuzhang not know that? It was a pity that the most valuable brat had escaped. That brat was a prince, and a prince was born with a bit of dragon energy. If he was able to use that ghost to refine a Ghost Pill, it would be really effective; ingesting a Ghost Pill which contained a bit of dragon energy would be very useful for his future cultivation. Wu Fuzhang didn't plan to let that brat off. He had Yang Zhaoning watch the house as he went out to look for that brat.

"Yes, Master!" Yang Zhaoning suddenly thought of Zhou Manning and said, "Master, right, that malicious ghost… I actually haven't been able to locate her with the compass recently. That malicious ghost won't go looking for that woman, right?"

Wu Fuzhang didn't care about Zhou Manning's life or death. He had thought that dealing with the malicious ghost would be a piece of cake, but he didn't expect it to actually know some concealment techniques.

But the woman was still of use, so Wu Fuzhang coldly told Yang Zhaoning to give Zhou Manning an ultimatum later and have her reveal where the other party's corpse was so that they could eliminate the malicious ghost.

Yang Zhaoning nodded. "Yes, Master!"

After Wu Fuzhang left, Yang Zhaoning thought of how her master suspected that the ghosts had treasures on them and hadn't interrogated them yet; thus, she prepared to go to the basement to interrogate them herself.

In the basement, Chef Li and little attendant Han Yu were covered in blood. In the end, Chef Li was an adult with some skills and could still persevere. It was just that little attendant Han Yu, who was next to him, was pitiful. At that moment, the little guy's face was deathly pale and there was blood on his lips. He was on the verge of death.

Chef Li opened his eyes in a daze and saw the woman come in with a whip in her hand. She whipped them without any explanation, and the two screamed.

Yang Zhaoning sneered smugly. "Are you going to tell me or not? You're not going to reveal immediately what treasures you have on you for cultivation?"

Yang Zhaoning had searched the bodies of the big and little ghosts just now, but couldn't find anything. Yang Zhaoning was naturally reluctant to accept this, especially when she thought of what her master had said about the two ghosts possessing cultivation treasures. Greed flashed in Yang Zhaoning's eyes as she looked down at the two ghosts.

Seeing that Han Yu was barely breathing, Chef Li stuttered, "This… Celestial Master, we really don't have…" Treasure.

Yang Zhaoning saw that the two ghosts refused to be forthcoming, even on the brink of death. She also saw the old ghost look worriedly at the little ghost next to him. In any case, the two of them were going to be refined into pills for her master. It was fine to leave them just one last breath.

Yang Zhaoning immediately sneered. "It looks like you still don't understand what it means to be on the brink of death. Since you won't say anything, I'll let you have a taste of what it's like to have your souls scattered."

With that, Yang Zhaoning lashed out several times at little Han Yu. She had specially soaked this whip in talisman water before, and it was especially effective against this sort of supernatural creature. After a few lashes, the pain immediately made Han Yu, the young attendant, break out in a cold sweat. His small body rolled and twitched on the ground as he became more and more transparent and was only able to gasp as he lay dying.
