Owner Gong then had someone lead the two to a guest room to rest, and said that he would invite them to enjoy the food and wine once they were ready.

As soon as I arrived at the guest room, the zombie delivered the reward.

[Successfully transported Gong Ruhu's remains to Gong Family Village, reward: Ten Thousand Years of Internal Energy.]

[Bonus: Reduce the abstinence period by five years.]

Five years?

As expected of the Corpse Brother, even after completing this corpse-driving mission, he still refuses to end his abstinence period directly.

If it were the old Bian Lang, he probably would have already hurled insults at Corpse Brother.

But now, Bian Lang doesn't seem to care.

Being able to be with Shangguan Hongyu again, to drive corpses together, to eat together, to sleep together, to laugh and talk together, is already a great happiness.

"It's definitely not over yet, right?" Shangguan Hongyu asked with a smile.

Bian Lang nodded and smiled, "There are still five years left, but given the nature of Corpse Brother, it may take another ten thousand years to finish these five years of corpse driving."

“Then we’ll wait another ten thousand years,” Shangguan Hongyu said.

Bian Lang said, "Now that we've finished transporting the corpses, we need to hurry to Dingdong City."

"Are we just going to let Gongjiazhuang go like this?" Shangguan Hongyu asked, frowning.

Judging from the actions of the Gong family lord, the Gong family village is undoubtedly a place that oppresses the good and kind.

Now that she was already here, Shangguan Hongyu felt uneasy about leaving just like that.

Bian Lang said, "Before leaving, wouldn't it be an easy task to wipe out the Gong Family Village?"

Shangguan Hongyu smiled. Indeed, how much effort would it take to deal with a small Gongjiazhuang?

Before they could rest for even a moment, servants came running over to invite them to have a meal.

The food and drinks were very plentiful.

But Bian Lang and Shangguan Hongyu couldn't stomach the food at Gongjiazhuang.

"Master Gong, the Gong family manor has such a large business, I bet they've exploited the local people quite a bit, haven't they?" Shangguan Hongyu's tone was extremely unfriendly.

Master Gong laughed and said, "All the properties in Gong Family Manor were built by my own hard work. Not a single penny of them is dirty."

“It looks clean to me too,” Bian Lang said with a smile.

Master Gong said, "Please sit down, otherwise the food will get cold."

“We’ll skip this meal, as we have important business to attend to. However, before we leave, we’d like to present a gift to Master Gong,” Shangguan Hongyu said with a smile.

Master Gong asked in confusion, "What gift?"

He was thinking about what to do if the two refused to eat.

He had just spoken with the guards and learned that Shangguan Hongyu could render all the guards powerless in an instant with just a wave of her hand.

That kind of power is something only the Nascent Soul Ancestor could achieve.

"Burn down Gongjiazhuang," Shangguan Hongyu said with a smile.
