Chapter 68 You still have to thank me
"She is having an affair with Qi Yong!"
Hearing this, everyone turned to look at Shen Panpan.
Her face instantly turned bright red, reaching all the way to her ears, yet she did not refute it.
Seeing this, everyone thought to themselves that the rumors in the Jianghu were indeed true.
The look Lü Meng gave her suggested he had known about this for a long time.
Wang Ping, however, looked incredulous and heartbroken: "Junior Sister, you—"
"As for this Wang Ping, he is the most useless of the three. His Master doesn't dote on him, his Mistress doesn't love him, and he has been pursuing Shen Panpan all this time, not knowing that his own Master had already cuckolded him!"
Liu Dayuan's words rubbed salt into Wang Ping's wound, causing him to be consumed by rage. His face instantly turned the color of pig liver, and he nearly bit his teeth in half.
So everyone else knew about this, and they were just keeping it from him alone?
"Where did you hear so much messy gossip?"
Yan Chu became curious about Liu Dayuan's background.
"Hehe! To tell you the truth, Hero, I used to be a Wind Listener from the Wind Listening Pavilion. I was expelled for breaking the rules, but I still know quite a bit about matters in the Jianghu!"
"The Wind Listening Pavilion? No wonder!"
Yan Chu knew of this organization.
Unlike the Four Seas Pavilion, the Wind Listening Pavilion specialized in the business of selling information. Their reach spanned the entire Great Jin Dynasty, making them far more powerful and professional than the Four Seas Pavilion.
As the saying goes, everyone has their own specialty. The Wind Listening Pavilion's information was quite expensive, and most people in the Jianghu could not afford it.
Within the Wind Listening Pavilion, there were a vast number of Wind Listeners gathering intelligence for them.
Furthermore, these Wind Listeners usually disguised themselves as ordinary people in the Jianghu, making them completely unrecognizable.
It was possible that a friend or family member you knew was actually a Wind Listener for the Wind Listening Pavilion, reporting all your information to them.
Even the few people who had just been drinking with Liu Dayuan did not know that he had once been a member of the Wind Listening Pavilion.
"Damn it! Liu Dayuan, was it you who leaked the business about the Noodle Shop Beauty next door?"
Liu Dayuan looked at the speaker with disdain:
"Lin San, why don't you take a look at yourself in a mirror? With your status, are you even qualified to appear on the Wind Listening Pavilion's intelligence list?"
"To tell you the truth, it's because your skills aren't up to par and you couldn't satisfy the Noodle Shop Beauty. She had no choice but to find someone else. Who would have known her husband would find out and beat her up, forcing her to sell you out!"
Hahaha!
Once these words were spoken, everyone present burst into laughter, all looking at Lin San with ridicule.
The air inside and outside the building was suddenly filled with joy.
Lin San gritted his teeth in hatred, wishing he could crawl into a crack in the ground.
Yan Chu also laughed. He looked at the three people sprawled on the ground and asked: "Confess honestly, why did you appear here?"
"Didn't Qi Yong join the Anti-Yan Alliance and want to kill me? Why are you here in a place like this instead of serving under him?"
Lü Meng and Shen Panpan hesitated for a moment, then both turned their heads away, remaining silent.
A flash of hatred crossed Wang Ping's eyes, and he gritted his teeth: "Qi Yong ordered us to investigate a person who lives in the nearby Twin Peaks Town."
"Junior Brother Wang!"
"What is it?"
Wang Ping looked coldly at Lü Meng: "Qi Yong is unworthy of being a Master. Since that's the case, why should I keep his secrets?"
"You..."
Lü Meng looked at him, his expression shifting, unable to speak for a moment.
Deep in Shen Panpan's eyes, however, was full of disdain.
Yan Chu watched coldly from the sidelines, waving his hand to create a True Qi barrier that isolated the three of them.
In the eyes of others, three figures could still be vaguely seen, but they were distorted, and not a single sound could be heard.
If it were a few days ago, when Yan Chu was still in the Fifth Realm, he would never have been able to control his True Qi to such a degree.
But now, it was effortless.
"Continue!"
With one look from Yan Chu, Lü Meng obediently shut his mouth.
With the methods Yan Chu had just displayed, which he had never even seen from his Master Qi Yong, he was terrified that the other party might kill him on a whim.
"Yes!"
Wang Ping felt the pressure on his body lift and couldn't help but feel a surge of relief:
"The predecessor of the Raging Flood Dragon Gang was the Three Rivers Alliance. The founder, Qi Jingfu, was once a subordinate of Ye Dinghan and is also Qi Yong's father."
"Over the years, following the clues left by his father, Qi Yong has been searching everywhere for Ye Dinghan's Legacy."
"Over a month ago, in a treasure cave in the Cangmang Mountain Range, Ye Dinghan's Legacy was obtained by the 'Gentleman Sword' Yue Jinhua. However, Qi Yong suspects that the Legacy is fake because there wasn't a single mention of it in the records his father left behind."
"These past few days, he combed through all of Qi Jingfu's belongings and finally found some clues. He discovered that Qi Jingfu had visited Twin Peaks Town while he was alive to see a wealthy man named Wang. Suspicious, he sent us to investigate and see if there was anything unusual about this wealthy man named Wang."
Yan Chu rubbed his chin and pondered: "Why didn't he come himself? With something as critical as the Legacy, is he comfortable entrusting it to others?"
"He is too high-profile; many people are watching him!"
"Furthermore, according to him, if the Legacy in the Cangmang Mountains is truly fake, then Yue Jinhua must be having people keep an eye on him. To maintain secrecy, he sent the three of us, his closed-door Disciples, to secretly investigate while passing through Twin Peaks Town under the guise of returning to the main sect to deliver a message."
"So that's how it is..."
A wealthy man named Wang...
If it were before, Yan Chu would have run as far away as possible if he encountered such a thing, but now he possessed a certain level of strength and could compete with others.
In truth, he really didn't care that much about any Legacy.
After all, he was someone with a System; who knows, perhaps one day it would just pop out a Grandmaster Cultivation Technique.
However, since it was delivered to his hands, it would be a waste not to take it!
Even if he didn't need it himself, he could still give it to Su Zhirou.
She had been put through so much by him; he really ought to give her some compensation.
Thinking of this, Yan Chu raised his finger and flicked it lightly.
Bang! Bang!
Two blasts of finger energy flew out. Neither Lü Meng nor Shen Panpan noticed before they were struck. Their heads exploded like watermelons, splattering red and white matter all over the ground.
【Killed enemy Fourth Realm Martial Artist from the Raging Flood Dragon Gang. Great satisfaction. Experience +1000】

"Ah!!! You... why did you kill Junior Sister Shen?!?"
This turn of events was so sudden and caught everyone off guard.
When he finally came to his senses and witnessed his Senior Brother and Junior Sister die right in front of him, Wang Ping screamed in shock, his eyes wide as he angrily demanded an answer.
"Hmm?!"
Yan Chu swept his cold gaze over, scaring him so much that the words stuck in his throat, and he swallowed them back down.
The young man before him was exactly as the rumors described.
Ruthless and vicious! Capricious! Killing at the slightest provocation!
He was afraid that if he said one more word, he would meet the same fate.
However, looking at his Junior Sister, who had been so lovely just a short while ago, now reduced to a headless corpse, Wang Ping couldn't help but feel a wave of grief, and he bent over to vomit.
Yan Chu waved his hand to isolate the smell and said:
"Actually, you should blame your Master. He slept with your beloved Junior Sister and toyed with you like a clown. I am merely helping you excise the pus from your heart; you should actually thank me!"
