“Master, don’t worry I heard that all the bystanders were local civilians They claiuard was hurt by an iron ball, I suppose that must be our refined iron Since it’s a rare treasure, I bet the guard won’t show it in public” The adviser explained to relieve souard was actually a newcomer in Hibiscus Town and now he, as well as the old irl ith him, have already travelled to Guanan It’s obvious that he has prepared himself well, in case ould try and kidnap the old ht now, the quickest way to kill hiht now should be to write a letter to the Guanan governate his whereabouts” The adviser continued

“Priority? Hht now is to keep this a secret I would say, the less people that know about the refined iron, the better What if I am the only who knows about this?” Suddenly, Shaoshan cut off the head of his adviser with his bare hands Immediately, he kicked the head into the left furnace Soon after, a disgusting scorching flavor filled the air

“I swear, I will kill you! I love that refined iron more than I lovehis teeth
