Chapter 264 (1/2)
Cao Zhengyi was a low-ranking slaveholder at the castle of Raging Fire, he was also a fire elemental skywalker. His name means “Justice” in Chinese, however, ironically, he was evil in his nature. If there were people who thought that this apocalypse was a great thing, then Cao Zhengyi would be one of them.
He came from an unprivileged background, those middle cla.s.ses white collars and beautiful city women would always look down on him. He was ashamed to even just walk into a KFC store, he felt like he didn’t belong to the city.
But everything changed after the sun disappeared, he gained an incredible power that other people dreamed of.
This power made his life become great. His social status was rising like a rocket from the bottom of society to the top of the social pyramid.
People who used to look down on him were like dogs wagging tails at him nowadays, all those pretty women from the city wanted to sleep with him…
He had never had this kind of rights before. No one dared to offend him or make him unhappy, he could easily decide one’s death. Whenever he was interested in some girls, he could just take them away by force, by food, or exchange girls with other slaveholders, there was almost nothing he couldn’t get.
He felt like he was in a dream, and he hoped that he would never wake up in the dream. This was the life he wanted, and this was the life he enjoyed.
Using his own words to describe it, it would be: “I also have those glorious days! Hahaha!…”
Before today, he was happy with his life, happy with how the world was. To be exact, only until he received shocking news, did he start to lose sleep. Even the slender girl who was in his arms also couldn’t attract his attention.
In the entire evening, he was thinking about the consequences over and over again. The experience he had during the age of light taught him that some people should not be offended. Even if he did not receive a higher education, he also realized that if he didn’t do something to make up his mistake, his future would become miserable.
He was not concerned about the foreigners that he caught. After all, they were from the castle of Snowstorm, so he didn’t do anything wrong. He was concerned about the chamberlain who asked him for those people. He shouldn’t have asked him for food in exchange for those people.
At first, he thought that the new Chamberlain was just like Xiao Zhen. But only when he got the information last night, did he realize that the chamberlain who had asked him for those foreigners was promoted by the fire messenger!
Even the castellan was also planning to bribe the chamberlain.
It meant only one thing. It was that the chamberlain was the fire messenger’s right-hand man!
Whenever Cao Zhengyi thought about this, he would lose all his courage. The fire messenger was like a G.o.d in the castle of Raging Fire. Offending his right-hand man meant offending him.
How would he not be scared?
So since he couldn’t sleep, he decided to get up early and carefully prepare a present for this Chamberlain, in order to make up his mistake.
….
Chu Yunsheng did not want to see Cao Zhengyi, he had so many things that he has not finished yet. However, if he wanted to get his gun back, he had to see him.
“Come in!” Chu Yunsheng said while adjusting his clothes. He sat on a chair and tried to find himself something to drink.
The door was pushed open, a person tumbled in then knelt down in front of him. It startled Chu Yunsheng.
“Chamberlain, I was drunk yesterday, I did not know it was you. You are a great person, please forgive a small-time person like me! Please!” Cao Zhengyi apologized while slapping his own face. From the clear sounds those slaps made, Chu Yunsheng could tell that it was not acting.
“Stand up and talk,” Chu Yunsheng did not feel comfortable at slavery this kind of practice, so he asked Cao Zhengyi to stand up.
“Do you forgive me now?” Cao Zhengyi asked nervously.
“Where is the gun?” Chu Yunsheng went straight to the point.
“Gun?” At first Cao Zhengyi did not know what Chu Yunsheng was talking about, he was confused for a second, then he thought Chu Yunsheng was using the word “gun” as a secret code for bribery. So he said flatteringly, “oh… oh… one second, I have already prepared it…”
