Chapter 2014: Chapter 2014: Don’t Expect to Find Him!

"Who knew that our conversation would turn into a threat," he said.

But no matter how threatening she sounded, to everyone else, it just seemed like she was forcing it.

"Heh."

Jiang Zuo scoffed, then turned to look at his master and mistress.

"Master, can I just kill this old wretch?" he asked.

Who knew how many people this old granny had devoured in this place? She probably couldn’t even keep count herself.

This much could be surmised from the excited look and tone she had while staring at Jiang Li and him—it was utterly detestable!

"Damn it."

Sui Zimo merely muttered these two words indifferently.

"Use poison; she seems fond of using it herself," Lin Caisang reminded Jiang Zuo.

"Yes, Mistress."

Jiang Zuo responded and turned his gaze back to Granny Chang.

"What... what are you trying to do?"

Granny Chang, stared down by Jiang Zuo’s sinister look, suddenly broke into a cold sweat.

She was just a bit fierce in her words, and since she cultivated medicinal herbs, she had access to some narcotics; beyond that, she really wasn’t formidable.

If these people got serious, then all she could do was wait to die.

Her eyes widened as she watched Jiang Zuo pull a small medicine pack from his bosom. She swallowed hard and took a step back in fear.

But what good was taking a step back when she was surrounded by people? She had no chance of escaping.

"You can’t kill me—I know where the person you’re looking for is, and I’m the only who knows. Without me to guide you, you’ll never find him in your lifetime!"

Without a second thought, she shouted at Lin Caisang.

Now, her only hope of escaping their clutches was relying on the person they were searching for.

Once she escaped, she would deal with them!

"Tsk."

Lin Changhong smirked.

Wasn’t that too coincidental? They had just arrived and met this old woman, and she knew where his father was?

If things were really that coincidental, he’d have to laugh.

"The only person who knows where he is must be inside your stomach, right?" he said sharply, scrutinizing Granny Chang’s belly.

Only she knows, what was she thinking?

Did she really think they’d travelled all this way from the wastelands to be easily fooled?

"No need to be polite with her. Just kill her directly; consider it avenging those souls she’s wronged," he said as he looked towards Jiang Zuo.

"Or should I do it?"

"No need, no need, how can I trouble you with this?" Jiang Zuo heard his words and quickly shook his head.

Although he wasn’t used to committing robbery and murder, when it came to ending such evil persons, would he even consider showing mercy? He was going to be as ruthless as necessary.

"Master, Mistress, I’ll take my leave."

He grabbed Granny Chang by the collar and dragged her out the door.

"Master, that old lady is quite cunning; we should go and see to make sure she doesn’t escape," Zhe Jue and the others said as they saw Jiang Zuo taking her away, quickly adding a word before following.

They had to see for themselves how this daring old woman, who dared to trouble their master, would die.

...

Before long, the room was empty.
