Chapter 91: Storms Forming in Thunder City

“Then don’t blame us for practicing the rules of the Emerald Pavilion.” The shop assistant of the Emerald Pavilion didn’t show any fear at all. He just said these words to Kong Li coldly.

“Am I afraid of you?” The spiritual power in Kong Li’s body started to surge.

The situation was about to get out of hand!

“I’ll pay for their money!”

Just as the fight was about to break out, a voice broke the tense situation between the two of them. This also made Yu Sisi and Xiong Ji’s high-strung hearts relax.

“Master?”

The two of them called out in unison.

Kong Li turned his gaze to the source of the voice.

Jiang Yun opened the sliding door of the private room and was standing at the door. At this moment, his hands were behind his back as he looked at Kong Li, who was about to stir up trouble, with a tense expression.

“How impudent, Kong Li. When you come to others’ place, don’t break their rules.”

Jiang Yun’s voice became a little low. Kong Li really made him a little vexed. Not only was he secretly ridiculing him, but he was also causing trouble for him outside. It was really difficult to teach him.

Jiang Yun changed his thought. Usually, he wanted to give him a good beating and pluck all his feathers to be roasted as a bird. Thus, there was no question of whether he should be taught a lesson or not.

He saw a beautiful pouch fall on the table.

“There are 900 silver coins in there. The extra is for you. My disciple is not sensible and I have failed to teach him a lesson. I hope you don’t have to fuss over it.”

Jiang Yun said to the shop assistant.

Kong Li did not know where to put his face as Jiang Yun’s appearance had directly exposed his identity as a noble young master.

Moreover, Kong Li enjoyed others’ respect. He was also very proud. Naturally, he did not know what to do at this moment.

Yu Sisi could see that the corner of his mouth had begun to twitch in embarrassment.

“Then I will thank you on behalf of the shopkeeper.” That fellow was instantly happy. 90 pieces of these silver coins would not need to be credited into the account of the Emerald Pavilion, but directly into his bag, this made him happy.

“Let’s go.” Jiang Yun directly glanced over Kong Li, who was motionless as if petrified and looked at Yu Sisi and Xiong Ji who were still in shock.

“Master, you… are really generous!! 900 silver coins!” Xiong Ji looked at Jiang Yun in surprise.

“There are many things you don’t know. It’s good that you bought this storage bag. It will also be helpful to you in the future. In your daily cultivation and killing monsters, you don’t have to go through so much trouble to carry a lot of things.” Jiang Yun waved his sleeves, then, he stepped out of the door of the private room.

The four of them finally arrived at the noodle shop on the street outside.

As night fell, the number of pedestrians gradually decreased. For some reason, Thunder City was not as prosperous as it used to be on that day. Logically speaking, Thunder City should be bustling with people at that hour. The night market was full of goods, but there were very few pedestrians on the street. The scene was very bleak.

“Perhaps it’s because the He family was wiped out? Half of the shops in Thunder City are in the hands of the He family. Now that the He family was wiped out, those peddlers have all fled,” Yu Sisi guessed.

“Not exactly,” Jiang Yun muttered. Looking at the night sky, the crescent moon was hung high.

It seemed that something big was going to happen soon.

“What’s wrong, Master? You seem to have a lot on your mind.”

“We can’t leave Thunder City yet.”Jiang Yun came to a tea stall with his three disciples and sat down. Then, he looked at his three disciples and said slowly.

“Why?”

“At least not yet. Since the He family is the strongest among the three forces in Thunder City, Thunder city will either be shuffled or completely destroyed at her collapse.”

“What do you mean by shuffled?” Kong Li looked at Jiang Yun with a strange expression.

Jiang Yun ignored him and continued, “Right now, everyone in the He family is going their separate ways. Not even the family head or his children will be spared. This will actually cause a huge uproar.”

“Master…”

“It’s okay, Sisi. You didn’t expect this outcome either. The He family is not good people in the first place, but we were the ones who did it. We have to be more prepared for the possible consequences.” Jiang Yun smiled at Yu Sisi and comforted her.

“So, someone has been watching this behind-the-scenes for a long time?”

Jiang Yun shook his head and said, “Not necessarily. The other two major forces are a motley crew. They can’t cause much of a stir. What I’m worried about is the place we can’t see.”

“The place we can’t see? What does that mean?” Yu Sisi was a little confused.

“There’s an undercurrent in Thunder City, especially in recent days. I sensed a power that doesn’t belong to normal cultivation. And with the death of the He family, this power has become stronger.”

“What do you mean it doesn’t belong to normal cultivation?”

Jiang Yun took a sip of a cup of hot tea and said, “I don’t know. It might be evil techniques, or it might come from outside the northwest region.”

“It sounds very dangerous.”

“I also heard that you didn’t meet that person called He Zhao, right?” Jiang Yun suddenly asked.

The three of them nodded.

“Many people said that he is already dead.”

“That b*stard…”

“If he isn’t dead, it will still be a problem.” Jiang Yun helplessly shook his head.

Right now, the tranquility of Thunder City was too unnatural. The balance provided by the He family was finally broken by the destruction of the He family. Until now, he thought that all of this was just the tranquility before the storm. He didn’t know what was the undercurrent. He had heard from his master that there was an evil technique that transcended the power of ordinary cultivators. This evil technique didn’t have any division of realms, the power it absorbed was also an extremely terrifying bloodthirsty power. That evil technique would magnify the dark side in a cultivator’s heart. If used improperly, it would cause Qi deviation and the cultivators would turn into a person who was neither human nor ghost.

However, that sect seemed to have been destroyed by the various sects and schools in the northwest continent several decades ago. Until now, many people only regarded it as a legend.

If the undercurrent that Jiang Yun sensed really came from this bloodthirsty force, then they would really be in big trouble. Now that the He family of Thunder City had been destroyed, the remaining two sects in Thunder City were simply a motley crew, unable to hold up the show at all. Since that was the case, then factions from all corners would definitely be eyeing this piece of fat meat.

Thunder City… Something big was finally going to happen!
