Upon hearing chubby AnRan’s words, Jiang Xiaobai, who was mid-sip, spray his water everywhere, staring at the chubster in disbelief.

The little chubby kid was full of expectation, as if what they’d done was the most amusing thing in the world.

“Are you crazy, or am I going crazy, you want to do it again?”

“Of course we should keep going. This is so much better than running a business. One job has so much profit, it’s insanely good.” The chubby kid said excitedly.

Jiang Xiaobai took a deep breath, suddenly feeling that involving AnRan in this might have been a mistake.

“Do you have any idea of our capabilities? You really want to do this again?”

Jiang Xiaobai spoke irritatedly, “We were lucky to get away with it twice today. Plus, the city lord’s mansion must be aware by now and will definitely be on their guard. If we dare do it again, it’s like walking straight into their trap, you understand?”

Clearly, AnRan understood as well. He was about to argue further, but eventually let out a sigh and dropped the subject.

After all, if they kept it up and pushed them too far, it wouldn’t end well for them either. But AnRan still felt an itching frustration deep inside.

“Okay, how about this. Next time we get a chance, can you take me with you?” AnRan looked at Jiang Xiaobai expectantly.

Jiang Xiaobai chuckled and nodded, “You can count on it. If we get the chance,

I’ll be sure to take you.”

“Thank you, boss!”

“Well, you’re willing to call me big brother, so even though big brother isn’t very cultured and doesn’t speak well, I can still treat you to a good time,” Jiang Xiaobai laughed.

After dividing the spoils, the two of them ate ravenously, then fell into a deep sleep.

While they were in the comfort of their dreams, all hell broke loose over at Four Seas City. City Lord Yuwen Tiancheng was practically going insane, smashing and throwing things around his study.

“Once I find out who it was, I will skin him alive and rip out his tendons!” roared Yuwen Tiancheng.

At the doorway of the study, several men knelt with bent knees, keeping their heads bowed in silence.

They had come to report on the investigation but seeing Yuwen Tiancheng’s uncontrollable anger, they dared not speak.

Kidding, if they were to say they found nothing now, wouldn’t they be courting death?

At this moment, a voluptuous woman who had been by Yuwen Tiancheng’s side all this time walked into the room.

“Did you find them?” Yuwen Tiancheng frowned.

The voluptuous woman shook her head, causing Yuwen Tiancheng’s anger to surge uncontrollably.

“The Thousand Yuan Dynasty already knows about this. The General Protector’s intention is for us to solve this ourselves,” The voluptuous woman spoke with her head lowered even more.

Upon hearing those words, Yuwen Tiancheng blew up in rage, “Damn it! Damn it all!”

“Every year I’ve given that dog how many spirit stones! Now when things have come to this, he just abandons me? I can’t stand up to any of the forces that are involved with the spirit stone mines. Does he want me to die?”

Yuwen Tiancheng’s eyes turned bloodshot, wishing he could catch the thief and skin him alive right that instant.

“My lord, there is another approach.”

The voluptuous woman proposed unexpectedly, “Capture Jiang Bai. He was the one who ended up with all the spirit possessions of the previous City Lord Mansion. If we capture him now, it could appease the other forces.”

Hearing this, Yuwen Tiancheng finally began to calm down.

In this situation, futile rage won’t help them. Only coming up with a solution as soon as possible could.

Clearly, capturing Jiang Xiaobai was the wisest decision.

“Have there been any recent news about Jiang Bai?” Yuwen Tiancheng asked coldly.

“The search just ended. It seems like Jiang Bai found some help. The two were spotted one thousand miles outside Four Seas City yesterday,” the voluptuous woman reported.

“They’ve shown up in the vicinity?”

Yuwen Tiancheng furrowed his brows and suddenly a possibility came to mind.

Could it be Jiang Xiaobai who did all this here?

“My lord, Jiang Bai indeed fits the suspicious profile, but this operation was too sophisticated for his abilities. There may be someone else pulling the strings from behind.

The voluptuous woman advised, “Jiang Bai was spotted near Four Seas City before and he should still be close by. All we have to do is flush him out.”

Yuwen Tiancheng narrowed his eyes slightly and slowly took his seat. He was contemplating something.

A few moments later, he casually ordered, “Send word that the Qin family, unsatisfied with the punishment by the Thousand Yuan Dynasty, were the ones behind the damage to the spirit stone mines. Arrest them all and execute them in three days!”

Upon receiving the order, the voluptuous woman briskly walked out.

It was quite a vicious move. Yuwen Tiancheng was aware that Jiang Xiaobai had some ties with the Qin family, so he utilized them to force Jiang Xiaobai out.

But he concocted a wickedly brutal reason, pinning the blame of damaging the spirit stone mines on the Qin family.

In this way, they couldn’t only use the Qin family to lure out Jiang Xiaobai but also divert the attention of those powers involved in the auctioning of the mine. Killing two birds with one stone!

“Jiang Bai, you only have yourself to blame.” Yuwen Tiancheng sneered in his mind.

That very night, the Qin family was put under control by the City Lord Mansion. The City Lord Mansion deployed three late-stage Yuan Infants. The Qin family didn’t even get a chance to resist before they were imprisoned.

Simultaneously, as the Qin family was looted and wrongly accused, all the other families in Four Seas City began to feel threatened. No one dared to speak up for the Qin family.

Meanwhile, the Liu family rejoiced. They had never had the chance to get rid of the Qin family and now the City Lord Mansion had done it for them.

Liu Dongsheng was so excited he couldn’t sleep all night. It was only in the morning when the City Lord Mansion sent people that he managed to calm down.

The City Lord Mansion basically wanted to establish good relations with the Liu family. Moreover, they received news that Jiang Bai, who was on the wanted list of the Thousand Yuan Dynasty, would appear to disrupt the execution.

At that time, the Liu family was needed to take action and once the task was completed, two out of the eight million top-grade spirit stones would be given to the Liu family!

Liu Dongsheng couldn’t refuse such a good deal, and immediately accepted, grinning from ear to ear.

Just then, the black-robed man Gu, who was cooperating with Liu Dongsheng, walked into the hall.

“Lord Liu, the City Lord mansion wants your assistance in capturing Jiang Bai?” The black-robed man, Gu, chuckled.

“Yes, Master Gu, I hope you can assist. After the matter is accomplished, I will give you half of the reward.” Liu Dongsheng replied with a smile.

However, Black Robed Gu shook his head: “Half isn’t necessary. What I want is Jiang Bai’s head, how about it?”

“Oh? Master Gu, why are you interested in that kid’s head?” Liu Dongsheng asked in surprise, his eyes twinkling slyly.

Both were cunning old foxes, how could he not know what the other was planning. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be refusing such a good offer.

“Hehe, Lord Liu, I would advise you not to get involved in this matter. Or else, the consequences are not something you can handle.”

The black-robed man, Gu responded indifferently, “And I’m not threatening you, this is just how it is. The only thing I can tell you is that there’s a significant matter connected to that kid..”
