Chapter 80 (2/2)

“Wait wait!”

“What?”

“She left!”

“Left?”

The Nie family’s entire courtyard could almost be described as ‘too tragic to look at’.

Darkly dressed people were sprawled chaotically on the ground, blood stains all over their faces.

The beggar standing on the roof merely curved her lips and smiled, her words as distinctly clear and cold as the wind, “Thank you, training partners.”

Thank you, training partners…

Thank you, training partners…

Thank you, training partners! ! !

“Training partners?” Elder Nie, who hurried home from the Defense Division, when he heard his subordinate’s report, took large strides to arrive at the center of the courtyard. His dense eyebrows furrowed fiercely, while the Buddha beads turning in his hand also flew out immediately afterwards to fall heavily upon the ground and disintegrate into powder!

“Who are you? What’s your ident.i.ty?”

Elder Nie was truly angry. He never thought that at the capitol, someone unexpectedly dared to challenge a powerful family. Who wasn’t aware, who didn’t know that even though his family wasn’t the military’s best, nevertheless, they were a central branch of the Helian family, and he was a well-known figure.

Yet today, surprisingly, someone took advantage of the time he went to the Defense Division and laid waste to his nest.

Even if that was so!

Training partner?

The grand Nie family was used by a little petty thief to train with? !

“Investigate for me. After the answers have been found, I want to personally slaughter this little beggar!” Elder Nie gnashed his teeth as he spoke, an unprecedented sinister light flashed in his eyes!

“Yes!” One after another, the guards dropped their heads and didn’t even dare to speak loudly.

The Nie family’s courtyard was in a mess. The atmosphere was indescribably grave.

Elder Nie seemed like he thought of something, turned his head around and said softly, “The things that happened today, if someone dares to leak it outside, watch out for your worthless lives!”

“Yes!”

This time, the ones replying were the servant girls. They trembled uncontrollably as they kneeled on the floor, obviously frightened by the old man’s words, and simply didn’t even dare to carelessly look around.

Nowadays, all the influential clans have their eyes set on the martial qi exam being held not long from now. Ordinarily, they’re all training strictly and secretly trying really hard. n.o.body was willing to submit to someone else.

If outsiders were to know of this matter, that a central branch from the majestic Helian family, the Nie family, suddenly was beaten by an unknown beggar without even the strength to retaliate. If this matter were to be spread outside, it’d surely reduce the Nie family into the biggest joke.

But what Fang s.h.i.+ Chao didn’t antic.i.p.ate was that for the next three successive days, not merely the Nie family, but three other families also similarly suffered being wiped out by an unknown beggar.

If only one family experienced this, the secret could still be concealed. But if all the distinguished families in the capitol met the same fate, it’s the same as trying to contain fire by wrapping it inside a piece of paper.

The entire capital had now been shaken. Each clan’s people were looking for this beggar, so much that they even announced a ransom of one hundred thousand taels of silver. Just for the sake of capturing her, they’re actually already willing to expend money.

And at this moment, that beggar early on had already changed appearance with a single shake and became a student at White Academy who was in the middle of her first truly important profitable business transaction during the ancient times.

“Really didn’t antic.i.p.ate, it’s been such a long time, I’m surprisingly talking business with a girl.” The one talking was Hei Ze, the second son of the Hei family, outstanding and well known within the capital.

Typical of the northern military’s second generation, ranked in the capitol as the fifth most handsome man, strong and intelligent. A body covered with a graceful and luxurious cloak and robe turned and sat, then propped his chin. His overbearing gaze looked Wei Wei up and down. After that, slightly smiled cooly, “The one everybody thought was a spoiled good-for-nothing actually made good armaments!”
