Chapter 17: Chapter 17 The Zhao Family's Anger
Indeed, just as Lin Yi had predicted.
After they drove away, just two hours later.
A group of unwelcome visitors arrived at the scene.
Leading them was a young woman and a middle-aged man with a square face.
"Yu Yan!"
"Xiao Bao!!!"
When the middle-aged man saw the bodies of Zhao Yu Yan and the bear child, he let out a grievous cry, nearly fainting.
"Father!"
"Restrain your grief!"
The young woman quickly supported the middle-aged man.
This middle-aged man was none other than the Family Head of the Zhao family, Zhao Kuo, and the young woman beside him was Miss Zhao, Zhao Ming.
"Damn it!"
"Who did this? Who dares to kill the children of Zhao Kuo?"
In Jinzhou Territory, their Zhao family was the Emperor, but now, his children were murdered within the bounds of Jinzhou Territory!
Who was so bold?
"Father, calm down."
Zhao Ming bowed to Zhao Kuo and said, "Please give your daughter two days, I will definitely find the murderer!"
"Good!"
Zhao Kuo nodded, "All the resources of the Zhao family are at your disposal. You must find the murderer within two days!"
"I want them all buried with my kids!"
"Yes!"
Coldness flashed in Zhao Ming's eyes.
In this vicinity of Golden State, only death awaited anyone who dared to kill a member of the Zhao family.
...
Two days later.
Golden State City, Zhao Mansion.
Under the full investigation of the Zhao family, although Zhao Ming had not found the murderer, she had already grasped a crucial clue.
The one-eyed man who had previously offended the bear child was captured by the Zhao family's people and brought before Zhao Ming.
The one-eyed man was not only missing an eye but thanks to the Zhao family, he was also missing an arm, turning him into a one-armed man.
Offending that bear child really brought him generations of bad luck.
But the moment the one-eyed man saw Zhao Ming, he immediately knelt in front of her, begging continuously, "Miss Zhao, spare my life!"
"Killed my younger sister and brother and still expect to live?"
Zhao Ming looked at the one-eyed man with murderous intent.
"Injustice!"
The one-eyed man looked innocent. "Miss, the deaths of the second Miss and the third young master have nothing to do with me!"
"Others might not know of the Zhao family's might, but could we, the Black Dragon Group not know? Besides, even if I had the audacity, I wouldn't have the capability!"
"If not you, then who?"
Zhao Ming's brow furrowed, "Name the actual criminal, and I can let you go!"
The one-eyed man looked troubled.
How could he possibly know who the murderer was?
But if he couldn't come up with some leads, the Zhao family would definitely not let him go.
"I've remembered!"
Just then, a vision of a young man popped into the one-eyed man's mind. "It was a young chap, highly likely him!"
After he had fled, knowing the conduct of the Zhao family people, they definitely wouldn't have let Lin Yi off easily.
This lad, highly suspicious!
"Describe the appearance and attire of that young man in detail!"
Seeing that they finally had a breakthrough, Zhao Ming's eyes immediately lit up, and she promptly summoned a painter.
"Yes!"
The one-eyed man hurriedly complied.
In a short while, the painter roughly restored the appearance of Lin Yi.
Adding that Lin Yi had a sister with him.
That would make it even easier to locate.
Looking at the portraying painting before her, murderous intent surged in Zhao Ming's eyes.
It was this youngster, he killed her brother and sister!
"Miss, can I go now?"
The one-eyed man asked, trembling.
"Leave!"
Zhao Ming waved his hand.
"Thank you, Miss!"
The one-eyed man, as if he had received amnesty, kept kowtowing repeatedly before he hastily ran out of the Zhao family's residence.
However, no sooner had he stepped through the gates than a cold glint flashed in Zhao Ming's eyes, and he waved to one of the Zhao family's guards at his side, "Kill him!"
As soon as he spoke,
the next second, the one-eyed man's screams could be heard from outside the gate.
Even many of the Zhao family guards felt a chill down their spines.
They clearly understood, compared to the second young lady, Zhao Yu Yan, the elder lady Zhao Ming was much more ruthless. She was the real Zhao Family Witch!
"Issue my order!"
"Immediately distribute this man's portrait to the black market and offer a reward of 200,000 gold coins!"
Zhao Ming said coldly.
"Yes!"
A Zhao family elder immediately took the portrait and left the grand hall.
A sinister light flickered in Zhao Ming's eyes.
A black market bounty of one hundred thousand gold coins was enough to engage some infamous assassins within Shi Country!
The assassin was doomed!
...
Meanwhile, Lin Yi was still unaware that he had been heavily rewarded by the Zhao family.
After killing Zhao Yu Yan and others from the Zhao family,
he immediately left the Jinzhou Territory.
In the carriage,
Lin Ning was temporarily driving while Lin Yi was cultivating inside.
Holding a mid-grade Spirit Stone in his hand, Lin Yi's True Qi circulated as his sword meridian surged.
Boom!
Suddenly, Lin Yi opened his eyes.
An extremely sharp momentum radiated from his body!
Third Level of Spirit Transformation Realm!
A smile of joy appeared on Lin Yi's face.
After consuming ten mid-grade Spirit Stones, Lin Yi had reached the Third Level of the Spirit Transformation Realm in one go!
Truly worthy of the mid-grade Spirit Stones!
Just then, the carriage curtain was lifted and Lin Ning's little head peeked in, "Brother, we've arrived at Yangzhou."
"So soon?"
Lin Yi was a bit surprised.
He stepped out of the carriage and immediately saw a majestic city entering his view.
Above the city gate, "Yangzhou City" was clearly written.
Having reached Yangzhou, they could take a boat to the Imperial City and would arrive in at most three days.
"We have plenty of time, we can rest in Yangzhou City for a day before setting off."
"I'll take you for a big meal and buy some beautiful clothes," Lin Yi said smilingly to Lin Ning, clearly in a good mood having made a breakthrough to the Third Level of Spirit Transformation Realm.
Besides, with a fortune of one hundred thousand gold coins, even in Yangzhou, they were considered quite wealthy.
"Yay!"
Lin Ning was excited, having been fed up with dry food all this time.
As for beautiful clothes, which girl could resist them?
After paying an entry fee, the two entered Yangzhou City.
However,
just as Lin Yi and his sister entered,
several sneaky figures appeared in the city.
"That's him! Golden State Zhao family has offered 200,000 gold coins for this lad's head!"
A lean man said with bright eyes.
"Are you sure it's him? No mistakes?"
The others also brimmed with excitement, their eyes shining.
It seemed as if they had discovered a treasure.
"Look carefully, this lad now is the fat sheep in the eyes of all the big shots in the black market, and yet he dares to show up openly in Yangzhou City?"
"Absolutely no mistake!"
The lean man stared intently at Lin Yi and his sister, "There's at least a 70% chance!"
"Good!"
"Quick, go inform the boss, the prey has appeared, the 200,000 gold coins order is here!"
The sneaky figures quickly disappeared.
