w Zhu Pengpei pondered for a while, thinking that if he said ’let me go, a pig,’ he might be saved.
Seeing that Zhu Pengpei was still deep in thought, Wen Wen added, "Letting you go is impossible, but if you obediently hand over the items, I could give you a slight concession."
Zhu Pengpei thought for another minute, but he still couldn’t grasp what Wen Wen meant.
There’s an adjective that goes ’either dumb or evil,’ but Zhu Pengpei is on another level; he’s both dumb and evil.
He not only has a single-minded focus on deceiving others, loves causing chaos, but his intelligence at best only equates to a super-enhanced domestic pig.
Although pigs already have high intelligence among animals, they are far inferior compared to humans.
Usually, when Zhu Pengpei encounters a problem he can’t solve, he relies on sheer strength to act unruly. But now, with the situation out of his favor, he doesn’t know how to proceed.
Seeing Zhu Pengpei’s flustered look, Wen Wen could only shake his head with a wry smile, "Didn’t you catch two people before? Hand over those two."
Li Dazhuang is a Containment Officer at the Sanctuary, and it’s certain that Wen Wen needs to rescue him.
As for Tao Wen, being the first New Human, Wen Wen also doesn’t want any mishaps.
"Oh, oh, I’ll do it right away."
Zhu Pengpei hurriedly took out two little paper figures, and with a gentle shake, they turned into two unconscious people. Wen Wen received them into the Sanctuary with a sigh of relief.
"I’ve released the people; can’t you let me go now?"
Don’t blame Zhu Pengpei for being so intimidated. Seeing as they only had one Catastrophe on their side, while the opponent had two, he concluded they couldn’t possibly win.
When those two Catastrophe-Level Experts finish off the Crooked Dragon and Egger, they would certainly come for them, and they had no means of escape.
Therefore, there were only two outcomes for them: either become prisoners or end up as corpses. Hence, Zhu Pengpei had no will to resist.
"In that case, I’ll have to tie you up. As long as you don’t resist, I’ll ensure you won’t die, how about that?"
Zhu Pengpei thought it over and agreed. Seeing the black chains wind around him, he even wore a smiling face, mocking the other monsters.
On the other side, Egger’s force was dwindling. He was nearly emaciated to skin and bones, with no small monsters left around to feed on, and was about to be struck down by the Black Night Knight.
The bronze glow on the Bronze Wedge was weakening. Ishna seemed addicted to the fight; such an opportunity to use something as a sandbag for a Catastrophe-Level Expert was rare.
At this moment, the situation was clear. In one or two minutes, they would be subdued.
So the Crooked Dragon suddenly steeled his mind. He did not want to abandon Yuriano and still wanted to survive, leaving him with only one choice.
That was to open the bronze gate in Yuriano’s center and unleash Yuriano’s secret. Only then would he have a sliver of success!
Egger’s body was shattered, teetering on the brink of death, as the Black Night Knight approached, ready to deliver the final blow.
The bronze glow shattered, and Ishna walked to the Bronze Wedge, reaching her hand towards it.
Wen Wen had already bound Zhu Pengpei, preparing to take him into the Sanctuary.
But at this moment, all living beings throughout Yuriano heard a creaking sound.
The pedestrians, dressed in various era’s clothing and wandering aimlessly through the streets and alleys, suddenly became solid, with lively eyes, turning the entire Yuriano into a bustling, normal human city.
And those superpower users fighting earlier, along with the hiding monsters and criminals, their minds halted at that instant, and in the next moment, they all vanished from Yuriano entirely.
In the square, only that lone Bronze Wedge remained quietly on the ground, quickly gathering dust, as if waiting for someone to pick it up.
On this day, the two Judicators of the Hunter Association disappeared.
On this day, the true master of the Catastrophe Containment Facility also vanished.
No one knew where they went, nor did anyone attempt to find them, as if everyone silently forgot about them.
A piece of silk handkerchief with a pungent fragrance slapped onto Wen Wen’s face, prompting him suddenly to awaken from a dream.
Startled, he gazed at the woman in front of him and shivered awake in an instant.
The woman before him had pale white skin, her smile forming shallow dimples on her cheeks, while she tugged on Wen Wen’s arm, trying to pull him into a wooden building.
"Hey, what kind of demon are you? I can tell at a glance you’re not human!"
Wen Wen pushed the woman away in one swift motion, feeling like he sank his hand into a chunk of smooth pig fat.
The woman, in front of him, although her skin was flawless, and her features decent, was simply too fat.
How fat was she? If you took out her underwear alone, you wouldn’t know what it was used for.
"Something’s not right here."
Wen Wen took two steps back, absorbing the scenery around him; an ancient-style street stretched out before him, with a small building draped in various colored silks.
"Fragrance Pavilion..."
"Is this a brothel? Why is there a brothel? Judging by their clothes, this doesn’t seem fake."
"Regardless of where I am now, does the brothel use these kinds of women to attract customers because they earn too much money?"
The plump woman stood aside, not daring to disturb Wen Wen further.
Her stage name was Chun Ling, banking on her tall stature to rule over the Fragrance Pavilion.
Originally, she wasn’t one of the girls there; she just sold herself.
When she declared she would become a top courtesan there, the madam knelt before her.
This girl not only failed to receive any customers but also scared away many. Since her arrival, the brothel’s business plummeted.
But what could the madam do if she disagreed?
Chun Ling alone, with a rolling pin in hand, knocked down the Fragrance Pavilion’s thirty-person security team!
If she couldn’t handle it herself, she’d report it to the authorities—but the authorities wouldn’t intervene in such matters.
If someone forced a woman into prostitution, the authorities would naturally intervene, but if a woman volunteered to sell herself, what business was it of theirs?
So, the Fragrance Pavilion had no choice but to accept Chun Ling. This woman alone could eat enough for ten, greatly increasing the Fragrance Pavilion’s expenses.
And she always caused trouble. Though passionate about serving as a courtesan, she hadn’t managed to land a single business deal thus far.
Due to Chun Ling’s situation, the madam of Fragrance Pavilion wept daily, overwhelmed with grievance and misery.
No matter the story setting, the madam is traditionally the antagonist, but in Fragrance Pavilion... the madam is the victim!
Actually, Chun Ling volunteered to sell herself just to secure a place for free meals; her appetite was too large for any man to support her. Upon hearing that serving as a courtesan guarantees meals, she eagerly came herself.
If the madam disagreed, she’d fight until she did agree! This content belongs to novel✦fire.net
She was confident in her own power, whereas this man in strange clothes before her, easily pushed her several meters away.
So this man, in Jianghu, is at least a top master!
