C26 (1/2)

Gu Feng recognized everyone from the Chu Residence s, and he was even more familiar with all of them. It was to the point that he recognized them with a single glance.

Gritting his teeth, he really wanted to charge forward and kill him. Having been killed in such a manner, this fellow could not escape the blame.

With a cold laugh, Gu Feng squinted and took out a few pieces of broken silver from his bosom.

Hiding behind the stone pillar, he weighed the last piece of silver in his hand and with a flick, it rushed towards Chu Residence's butler.

Who cares what he came to the City Lord's Mansion for, if I were to meet him today, I'll take your revenge first!

When the piece of silver appeared and landed not far from the Chu Residence's butler, it made a slight sound and rolled for a distance before stopping.

Chu Residence's butler's gaze was wandering around. It was so extravagant, and if he could stay here, he would be willing to do anything.

”Is this gold?”

His fingers caressed the pillars as he walked past. After glancing around to see that there was no one around, he opened his mouth and took a bite.

”Ouch!”

He cried out in pain, yet his face was filled with ecstasy even as his cry reached his teeth.

”These pillars are actually made of gold!”

His two eyes carefully observed his surroundings. He actually wanted to scrape some gold off from his body!

It was also at this time that the piece of silver that Gu Feng had shot out fell to the ground.

The head steward of the Chu Clan jumped away as if he was struck by lightning. He stood still as he coughed and pretended to look elsewhere, thinking that someone was coming.

Only after pausing for a moment did he dare to turn his head to take a look. Upon seeing it this way, the silver fragments on the ground immediately attracted his attention.

”Huh?” He let out a sound from his mouth and quickly scanned his surroundings. After finding no one around him, he took out the silver coin in his hand in the blink of an eye.

Eyes swiveling around, he soon saw another piece of silver, and another piece of silver. These pieces of silver, added together, were a few taels of silver.

A faintly discernible smile appeared on his face, the Chu Residence's butler jogged along the way and quickly picked them up one by one.

When he picked up the last piece of silver, he touched his head against the panacea's door and looked up.

”panacea?”

”Remember, once you've reached the City Lord's Mansion, come back immediately after you're done with it. Don't wander around. There are many forbidden grounds in the City Lord's Mansion. If you barge into them, no one will be able to save you!”

Patriarch Chu Chengfang's words seemed to be beside his ears, as if he was mentioning the panacea s within the few forbidden grounds.

Staring at the half-opened door, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Inside the door, there were still many pieces of silver lying on the ground. The pieces of silver were placed together and were only a few feet away from the door.

Take it or not?

He looked around once more, then listened to the movements in the panacea. After confirming that there was no one around, the Chu Residence Supervisor charged in with a stride. He collected the silver pieces, turned his head, and ran out!

”Bam!”

Amidst the dull sound of the impact, the Chu Residence's manager solidly crashed into Gu Feng's body.

With this collision, the Chu Residence Manager felt like she had hit a wall, and her entire body fell backwards.

Before he could even cry out in pain, he heard an angry shout that sounded like a clap of thunder.

”How dare you trespass into the panacea!”

The thunderous voice resounded in his heart. The head steward of the Chu Residence was gone, and she did not dare to look to see who it was. She directly knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

”Mercy, my lord!” Mercy, my lord! This humble one had only mistakenly entered the panacea! ”

”Humph!”
