Chapter 655: Chapter Six Hundred and Fifty-Five: A Lesson

When Lu Hao put Qian Peng into the bathtub, a map fell out of Qian Peng’s pocket. It was clear that it must be the hand-drawn map he had mentioned before, but now all they could do was say thanks to Qian Peng’s corpse.

Su Jin saw that those who had returned were in low spirits, and even Lin Xiuyuan was no longer speaking. She immediately understood what had happened.

"Something happened?"

Huang Yunxiang still couldn’t believe it and asked.

Su Xiangzhe nodded and told everyone about what they had encountered just now.

I did not kill my noble friend, but my noble friend died because of me.

Everyone felt uncomfortable with this realization, especially after Lu Hao took out the map, Lin Xiuyuan stood up abruptly, claiming he was going to capture that Zhang Wenbin.

"There’s no need; they’ll probably come to us,"

Lu Hao said, staring at the yard’s gate.

Once those people had consumed the food they robbed from Qian Peng, they would certainly know that they had supplies. To people who were extremely vicious, they would not let go of such easy prey.

If nothing unexpected happened, they would make their move within the next couple of days.

However, the family did not expect those people to come so soon. That night, to be safe, not everyone went into the Space. They took turns resting in the Space. In the second half of the night, after Lu Hao and Su Jin had finished resting and came out, Lin Xiuyuan and Lin Cheng were already on alert.

"Shh—someone’s picking the lock,"

Lin Xiuyuan whispered.

The yard was very dark. The main hall’s door was a carved wooden door. Although it was closed, Zhang Wenbin and his people could still see the light reflecting off the golden Buddha statue inside through the hollow carvings of the door.

"Looks like they’re fast asleep, have we surrounded them all?"

Zhang Wenbin whispered to Niu Gaoming next to him.

"All set,"

Niu Gaoming replied with an OK gesture, indicating they were ready. They had brought forty or fifty people that night; surrounding a few individuals wasn’t a big deal, right?

"Just wait..."

Zhang Wenbin hadn’t finished speaking when the wooden door was suddenly blown open by a strong gust of wind, the doorframe hitting him right on the forehead. Zhang Wenbin couldn’t help but scream in pain.

"Who the hell opened the door!"

Zhang Wenbin cursed, clutching his forehead. He had been hit before he could even use his Special Ability.

"Wenbin, we’ve been spotted!"

Niu Gaoming looked at the several figures walking out of the main hall and said. It seemed they were prepared; it looked like their chance for a surprise attack was gone.

"What’s there to be afraid of? Get everyone here; everyone gets a share of the loot,"

Zhang Wenbin shouted. He would never forget the taste of the roasted chicken and pancakes in his life. These people had given Qian Peng so much good stuff; they must have a lot of supplies!

Lu Hao looked at the dozens of people quickly gathering in the yard and couldn’t help but sneer.

"All here now, huh? Saves us the trouble of waiting,"

Lin Xiuyuan said coldly.

"Newcomers, if you know what’s good for you, hand over all the supplies for us to share, or don’t blame us for being rude!"

Someone from the crowd shouted eagerly, and the rest of the dozens of people also started to make a ruckus.

"Hand them over and we’ll spare your lives!"

"Hand them over!"

Lu Hao wasn’t in a hurry. He stepped forward and asked, "Who’s Zhang Wenbin?"

Zhang Wenbin had not expected these newcomers to know his name. Had he really become that famous?

He released the hand covering his forehead and said, "Zhang Wenbin is here. Knowing who I am, shouldn’t you all obediently hand over the supplies?"

"Was it you who killed Qian Peng?"

Lin Xiuyuan asked.

"That old man who led the way for you today? Yeah, that’s right. A mere commoner dared to hoard supplies, and when he was supposed to respectfully offer them up to me, he refused. What’s the use of keeping someone like that alive?"

Zhang Wenbin spoke as if it was only natural, as though Qian Peng’s death was a normal occurrence.

"I think the one who should die is you, and you still want to rob us of our things? In your dreams!"

Lin Xiuyuan’s anger soared to its peak, and a series of Ice Spikes pierced into Zhang Wenbin’s limbs before he could even get a clear look.

"Xiuyuan, spare his life for now,"

Lu Hao whispered. Murderers should pay with their lives; that was justice. But theoretically speaking, it shouldn’t be their responsibility to carry it out.

"Don’t worry, brother-in-law, I won’t let him die that easily,"

Lin Xiuyuan, remembering Qian Peng with both arms broken, deliberately targeted the joints in Zhang Wenbin’s arms with the Ice Spikes.

Ice-Element Special Abilities could kill without shedding blood. After the Ice Spikes had pierced into Zhang Wenbin’s limbs, Lin Xiuyuan also intentionally used his Ice-Element Special Abilities to seal the wounds. So now, all Zhang Wenbin felt was pain and numbness, as if his entire body had been frozen by frost.

"Ahh~ Are you all not going to come up, don’t you want the supplies?!!"

Zhang Wenbin screamed and shouted.

"Go!"

Niu Gaoming had no idea how much pain Zhang Wenbin was in, and since it seemed like no blood had flowed out of Zhang Wenbin, he did not take Lu Hao and the others seriously.

As soon as Niu Gaoming’s words fell, a mix of Special Abilities involving Metal spikes and rocks all assaulted the family on the stairs!

Lu Hao watched coldly. These people had no intention of leaving any survivors; every Special Ability was lethal!

Boom!

A stone wall erected in front of the family, and as the Special Abilities collided with the rocks and fell, the family began to counterattack!

Niu Gaoming saw that their attack was defensively blocked, so he directly led a dozen people to charge forward, but for some reason, the ground beneath their feet had turned to ice, causing them all to slip and fall onto the icy surface.

A huge tornado, laden with countless rocks, also raged towards the people ahead. This was a new tactic developed by Nie Qing and Lin Cheng in H city.

The perfect fusion of Wind and Earth Elements instantly left dozens of people with countless lacerations. Although the wounds were not fatal, they were incredibly painful, and many started screaming.

"Tch, they can’t take a beating,"

Lin Cheng said, having used only twenty percent of his Special Ability. Could it be that he had become stronger again?

Suddenly, a torrential downpour began in the courtyard. The fresh wounds stung even more when the cold rain hit them, and seeing the turn of events, some people were already trying to flee out the unlocked door.

"Thinking of running?"

Lin Xiuyuan deployed his Ice-Element Special Abilities, and in an instant, everyone in the courtyard found their legs frozen in place, completely unable to move.

It was still not light outside, and Huang Yunxiang yawned, "What shall we do about these people in the yard?"

"We’ll wait. Let’s all rest a bit longer,"

Lu Hao closed the door, indifferent to the wails coming from the yard.

Zhang Wenbin felt both pain and cold; he was completely immobilized and drenched through.

"Who would have thought I’d be played by these few? Once I get out, they better watch out!"

However, the people in the yard slowly realized that the ice encasing them was just as hard as before, even after the break of dawn, and their legs had long lost sensation. Only then did a sense of panic begin to spread among the group.
