Feng Ying's
87 - Zhou Family
Some time passed, in a low-light basement, there was a middle-aged man sitting at the table. He was seen reading a book and did not know what was going on in his house.
Now, there began to be the sound of footsteps coming down the stairs. Because of the quiet place, then the person in the room will be very easy to know that there will be someone who meets him in this basement.
Only a few servants knew of his basement. So he thought if the move was the owner of one of his servants who might want to deliver the food and drinks he had told him to make earlier.
KREEETTS
The door began to open, making Hao Jin who was in the room look back. Because he turned his back to the door. "I've cleaned up the body, Mr. Hao." Said that person who was none other than Hao Yu's personal servant.
Hao Jin nodded, "Now you can go." He looked back at the book and read.
"Before that, Mr. Hao. There's something I want to talk about. Can it?" Say the waiter respectfully.
Hao Jin nodded, "Sure. Come here and tell me what you want to say."
"First, I want to apologize. Because I can't keep your house, Mr. Hao." Despite saying that, actually this waiter is not really apologizing. He only wanted to talk long enough with Hao Jin.
Hao Jin frowned. He immediately changed the direction of his chair to face the servant named Tao Mu, "What do you mean? Say it clearly."
"The house is currently under attack by someone. The whole place was a mess and all the guards and servants were dead because of the man's murder. I can't guard your residence, Mr. Hao. I'm sorry."
"What?! Attacked?!", Hao Jin was immediately startled, "Then why are you even staying here, huh?! Quickly do something!" enragedly.
"I've done it, Mr. Hao. But he beat me and now I'm on his side."
After saying that, Tao Mu instantly appeared beside Hao Jin and thrust a dagger towards the middle-aged man's left chest. "I don't need you anymore, Mr. Hao. Because I have gotten what I want from you with the help of that person and my real name is not Tao Mu, but Zhou Yuan."
Hao Jin instantly spat out a mouthful of blood and looked at Zhou Yuan who was beside him in disbelief. "No way.."
"What's impossible, Mr Hao? You think I died with the others, too? Heh, luck is still on my side. One of those 'death flower' hit men let me live. He also told me who had hired them.
You know, why have I been a servant in your family all this time, when I have General-level powers? That's because I want to find you where you keep my doll collection that you took. You hired the group because you wanted the doll and our puppet control. But you can only get the doll." Said Zhou Yuan.
Hao Jin again spewed blood. His face was pale and his skin was cold, "How dare it.. You tricked me..! Basic cheater!"
"Craud? Haha, hearing you say such a thing, sounds like a joke to me. Aren't you reflecting on yourself? You fooled your son too. You initially did good when he came home and said it would help him take revenge. You don't seem to have a problem when you see the state of your son at that time. But at the end of the bridge, you killed your own son and showed your true attitude. So what I'm doing right now isn't much different from what you're doing. Even so, I don't like being equated by people like you who are the cause of my entire Zhou family's death!"
After saying that, Zhou Yuan directly pulled out the dagger from Hao Jin's body. He again stabbed the middle-aged man's body several times and was like venting his emotions at this person. "Your color, my family's dead! Because of you, all my other collections are broken! Because of you too, my residence is falling apart!"
Blood soaked Hao Jin's entire body. His body began to fall down from the occupied seat after Zhou Yuan last pierced his body with a dagger. He was confirmed dead, whether it was because of a lot of blood loss, or because of a dagger prick on his heart.
Zhou Family. No one knows if the family has a great attitude. Because in the Zhou family itself, there are only a few people who master and learn the style. Because the family leader who did not allow all the Zhou family to learn that style. He feared that the Zhou family would be slaughtered, like the Zhang family was slaughtered hundreds of years ago. Indeed, the reason the Zhang family was slaughtered was not just because of the prophecy alone. Many people are afraid of the ability of their eyes.
But it turns out, Hao Jin who is a wealthy merchant knows their secret. He immediately hired a professional hitman 'dead flower' to retrieve the family's scripture. He also wanted the strongest puppet made by the Zhou family. In anticipation of the Zhou family's revenge, Hao Jin orders the assassin to wipe out the entire Zhou family.
The puppet that the Zhou family used was no ordinary puppet. The doll was made from a dead human body. The corpse, which had been made into a puppet by the Zhou family, would usually have a seal on his back, since he had already been made into a puppet. The abilities and power of the puppet also depended on the corpse of a human while it was still alive. Usually the Zhou family would form a thread of Qi thread on their puppets in a way found on the puppet-controlling books as well. So, in the puppet-control book, there is a way of turning a corpse into a puppet and making threads of Qi threads to control it.
Although Zhou Yuan was not the leader of the family, but because he was close to the leader of the Zhou family, he knew where the scriptures lay. But for now, he doesn't know. Does the book still exist or not.
Zhou Yuan took a deep breath and looked at Hao Jin's corpse coldly. After that, he immediately left Hao Jin's corpse and did not care if the man's corpse rotted in this place.

"Well.. Huh.. Finally finished too. Thank you Wang Feng, for helping me." Said Wang Chen with a tired smile. His current Qi was already almost depleted due to fighting people who had a cultivation level on it. Luckily Wang Feng was here to help her. It was not because that alone that they could win from the guards who had power over them. But also because of Wang Chen's ice element as well.
Nyawn~
Wang Feng's body size shrank. He had eaten the 2 guards earlier and it made him very full. So, now there are still some bodies of guards still lying on the ground.
Wang Feng looked towards the right and felt that there was some life energy walking towards where it was. It seemed, because of the fight earlier, some of the citizens who were around the location went straight to this place.
Nyawm! Nyawm!
"What?!", Wang Chen was surprised to find out that Wang Feng said that there were people who would go to this place. He immediately rushed inside the gate and had Wang Feng come with him.
Originally Wang Chen wanted to put all the corpses into his spatial ring and instantly closed the gate, along with himself who went inside. But he realized, if the people who will come will certainly know the fight. Because there are blood spots on the ground and ground cracks. So better, he did not bring the corpse and let it go. After all, that person would still know if there was an attack, even though he had cleaned the corpse in front of the gate.

A few minutes later, Feng Ying who was in the hallway and walking towards the exit, was startled by the arrival of Wang Chen and Wang Feng who ran inside, "Hey, be surprised by the arrival of Wang Chen who ran inside, I told you to wait outside when it's been"
"Some people started coming to this place. What should we do, Ying?" Said Wang Chen with a breathless gasp. I am still tired after fighting.
"We kill them, when they see us." Said Feng Ying lightly.
"Huh?! There's no way we're gonna kill that guy, Ying. We just hide from them. Because after all, they had nothing to do with this." Wang Chen said seriously.
"It's easier to kill them."
"No, I'm not gonna let that happen. Come with me, we'll go find a place to hide." Wang Chen immediately withdrew Feng Ying's hand quickly.
Feng Ying this time did not rebel at all. As important to him, he had already taken all of Hao Jin's possessions and some of the precious items that the man had.
