The story of Old Man Wang's past will be left to Jin Feng Lou to solve.
Yun Shou planned to wait two days before checking on the situation.
But he didn't know that after he left, the Seventeenth Master immediately summoned all the personnel in the branch and began a full-scale investigation!
Some people questioned: "Isn't this just a glass ball? It should be a reward. Seventeenth Master, are you mistaken? Where is there a Grandmaster with a young face?"
Within the Three Kingdoms, among the twelve supreme grandmasters of the time, not one matched the face Yun Shou had created!
There are indeed martial arts techniques in this world that can make one appear younger, but none of the grandmasters of our time have ever practiced them!
Seventeenth Master said expressionlessly, "Are you blind? That solid sphere of energy personally crafted by that Grandmaster isn't some kind of magic trick!"
"And look!" He pointed to the energy sphere he had created: "Haven't you noticed that it's shrinking after all this time?"
At this point, the Jinfenglou branch in Yangxue City mobilized all its resources, urgently contacted other nearby branches, and spread its intelligence network far and wide. The target: Zhong Yuman!
...
Yun Shou left Jin Feng Tower and continued walking on Wu Street.
This street, cleverly designed and cleverly hidden within the city of Yangxue, is quite large.
But as you walk further ahead, it gets a bit dark: the latter half of Wu Street extends underground, and lights are lit all around.
In the latter half, some things that were not so shady began to appear.
Yun Shou then saw that someone had offered a bounty for murder.
Walk a little further ahead, and you'll find a hitman offering to kill.
"...No, aren't you two a perfect match? Why are you trying to attract customers here? You might as well just be a couple."
As they passed a certain spot, Yun Shou's brow twitched, and he turned into a dark corner.
A rather cute little girl and a rather robust little boy, when they saw Yun Shou approaching, they both forced a stiff and ingratiating smile.
A plump, greasy middle-aged woman exclaimed "Oh dear!" and greeted him with a beaming smile: "Young man, come and take a look, come and take a look at this batch of goods."
She pinched the girl's cheek: "Look at this beauty in the making! In a couple of years, we can use her however we want!"
She pinched the boy's arm again: "You're strong. You can endure any hardship in the future. Give you a few grains of rice every day, and you'll be more useful than a donkey!"
Yun Shou said calmly, "Just these two? That's not enough."
"Oh!" The plump woman beamed. "Sir, sir, please come in!"
She pushed open a door and gestured for people to enter.
After Yun Shou entered, he whispered sternly to the two children outside, "Behave yourselves!"
Both the boys and girls had thin iron chains tied around their ankles.
Yun Shou remained calm as water, but after entering the room, the crying sounds he had heard earlier were amplified.
"Oh dear, they're disciplining a disobedient brat," the fat woman explained from the side. "He's been disciplined enough that he's biting people!"
She led Yun Shou to a room: "These are all well-managed, top-quality items!"
There were seven or eight boys and girls, all clean and white, aged between four and twelve.
Yun Shou: "Do you have any inferior goods?"
"What do you need those for? Those ugly and crippled ones will have their legs broken and be thrown into begging or sent to work in mines!"
I want them all.
"Alright!" The fat woman took Yun Shou to see another batch, more than ten children, but their condition was much worse than the previous batch.
Yun Shou continued, "As for those who haven't been disciplined properly, I like to personally train them myself."
The fat woman hesitated: "Sir, look at this money... the best quality will cost you fifteen taels, and even the worst quality will cost three to five taels."
He tossed the remaining two hundred taels of silver over, and the fat woman's hand sank, almost missing it.
Is that enough?
"That's enough, that's enough!" The fat woman was delighted. This was a rare big deal, and she had to serve this gentleman to his satisfaction.
A moment later, more than twenty people dressed in coarse cloth appeared in front of Yun Shou. More than ten of them were fearful and silent, while more than ten stared at the fat woman and Yun Shou with resentment.
He was pale and thin, with tears in his eyes, and he was timid and hesitant.
"Is that all?" Yun Shou raised his head: "Where did you get your goods from? Just send them directly to my residence."
The plump woman, not daring to offend this generous man, smiled obsequiously and said, "That's all for now, sir. We have connections with the White Poplar Gang in the city."
"And sir, this person we bought... can't be brought to light!"
She was afraid that Yun Shou was being too bold; this was no serious matter, and if it got discovered and became a big deal, they would be in trouble too.
Yun Shou sneered: "How old do you think I am? Let me tell you, I'm not even twenty!"
He quickly adjusted the structure of the elemental force. Although its strength could not change like the "Storm Elemental Force", its appearance could be changed at will.
Yun Shou waved his hand, and a bright light flashed: "I am Zhao Shou, a disciple of the Yangyao Sect and a first-rate martial artist!"
“My cousin Zhao Yuan is a martial arts school owner, a powerful martial arts master! He is extremely lewd, shameless, and depraved. He likes these boys and girls, and I was collecting them on his orders!”
Yun Shou's outward-emitting "powerful energy" terrified and irritated the fat woman.
"Moreover, that scoundrel Zhao Yuan also needs information about the children's families and residences. He enjoys doing evil in front of their families and getting pleasure from seeing the children's families' grief-stricken and powerless expressions!"
With a "bang," the "Sunburst Technique" punched a hole in the wall next to them!
Everyone present was so frightened that they jumped in surprise!
"Understand?" Yun Shou's tone made the fat woman feel as if she had been strangled, suffocating, just like the children here.
"I understand, I understand!" she nodded repeatedly.
Just then, someone shouted, "Sister Xi, the new stock has arrived!"
