Chapter 451 (2/2)

“He dares come? What a joke!” Li Yan continued to brag. Unbeknownst to him as well, the subject of his jeers was the person right in front of him.

“Sigh! It is a waste of time to even talk to you scum!” Ye Lang walked up to the third lady, “What are you doing here? Leave with me quickly!”

It was obvious he knew the woman from the beginning.

“??” The questioning look in the lady’s eyes never left.

Who the hell is he?

“Wanna leave? Fat chance. Leave yourself and your riches behind!” Li Yan’s anger only grew. He hated the feeling of being looked down upon by Ye Lang. The feeling that he was but a speck of dust in Ye Lang’s eyes.

Ye Lang’s lips curled into a smirk, “You think I’d leave just because you asked me to?!”

“......”

The crowd fell silent once more. Ye Lang’s action had surpassed their expectations by a huge margin. It wasn’t an auction, it was an abduction!

Is he even sane to be messing with the Li family? This is going to be interesting!

“H-huhh?! Isn’t this a kidnapping then?” Li Yan’s face darkened.

“Let me correct your words. Firstly, this place does not belong to you. Second, this isn’t an kidnapping, it's a rescue! Little Zero, tell me. Why are you here?” He questioned the lady to his side, who appeared to be the Little Zero he mentioned.

Apparently, the third lady was actually Coldblood Five-Two-Zero, the lady who used to follow Ye Lang during his alchemy research. At the same time, she was also the new Coldblood Thirteen.

“Ah…...Ah……You are……” Little Zero stared at Ye Lang intently. She had finally figured out the identity of her saviour. He was the only one to call her Little Zero after all. But one question remained: why did Ye Lang look like that?

Just as she was about to question that, she figured that the place might be inappropriate to do so.

“What are you stuttering about?! Tell me quickly, how were you caught in the first place? And to be sold off at that!” Ye Lang finally raised his voice a little.

“H-how would I know?! They said they could bring me to the Soaring Sky Empire. Thus I came with them... And what was it about me being sold?” Little Zero pondered about his words. As long as she lived, she has never left the Coldblood group. Other than alchemy, she knew nothing else.

Despite all the commotion just now, she had no idea she was being sold off. Talk about being clueless!

“You idiot! Who let you come out here alone? Where is Little Five?” Ye Lang smacked her head.

“Sister Five is still meditating. She specifically told me she’d pummel you to paste if she saw you. Be careful if you do!” warned Little Zero, sounding worried.

“......” Ye Lang pondered for a while, “Let’s not mention that for the moment, who let you out alone?”

”I was the one who volunteered. They said I could operate alone, so I decided to come here to practice my alchemy, all because of you…” Little Xin wanted to continue saying that Ye Lang was the reason she wanted to train here, as this was the place he practised his alchemy arts.

Within the Coldblood group, she was tasked with the mission to practice alchemy and produce the strongest alchemy weapon!

“Cough...Cough...”

Ye Lang cut her off, continuing, “You should at least inform me you’re here so I can come get you. Look at the mess I’ve had to clean up! If it weren’t for me, these people here would face rather unfortunate consequences!”

Absurd as it sounded, he spoke of the truth. The people here were the ones who’d be unlucky should things escalate as it would have. After all, the Coldblood Group would definitely not let off anyone who auctioned off a member of their organization like that.

Though others might not know nor care, Little Five would need a place to acclimatize herself once she ended her meditation practices.

And this brothel would’ve been perfect for it.
