Chapter 50 - 050 – Debt

Leaving the Inscriptionist Association, Xiao Yan merged with the Shadow Devil without anyone noticing and activated his void-form before going to the Star Restaurant.

It was officially a restaurant owned by the Sacred Family, but it was in fact the branch of the Dark Guild in Glory City.

{Since it's a restaurant, it should be closed to customers right now, I'll wipe them out before they act against Ziyun's Family}

{Normally they would start to take action much later, but since Glory City now officially have three more Legend Rank Demon Spiritualists, they might launch an attack earlier due to fear, as time would only work against them}

Not bothering himself with hiding the corpses, he went on a killing spree.

There was soon a strong smell of blood leaking from the restaurant.

He didn't bother using a sword, the bone sickles of his demon spirit were more than enough to kill them all.

Each time he found someone, he would kill him with a single blow, being so fast that even the Black Gold Ranks couldn't understand what was happening to them before they died

In less than a quarter of an hour, he completely eradicated the branch, killing every members of the Dark Guild who were there.

For himself, he kept all of the storage rings and also the corpses of the Black Gold Ranks.

There were a total of 7 Black Gold Ranks, 30 Gold Ranks and 80 Silver Ranks.

{Those people are from their Headquarters in the Nether Realm. If they're here, it means they really were going to launch the attack on the City Lord Mansion much earlier than in the story. It's a good thing that I came here before that, they might have tried to kidnap my cute Ziyun}

He kept the bodies of some of them because he would need it for a new technique that he compiled with the help of the LoHP.

Remembering that the Dark Guild would buy a large amount of elixirs to the Alchemist Association through the Sacred Family, he also took all of the storage rings they had, in case they still had the money on them.

His guess was correct, in the ring of the strongest of them, there was 10 Billion DSC.

Satisfied with his loot, he activated his void-form and teleported to the Sacred Family.

He quickly killed 100 Gold Ranks without anyone noticing, put their bodies in his storage ring, went back to the Star Restaurant and dropped their bodies there.

{I want Shen Hong to witness the fall of his family, I won't kill all of them today. You dared to poison the mother of my Ziyun, now you'll have to pay back, with interests}

——————————

Next, he went to the Heavenly Marks Family.

First using the LoHP on seven people, he quickly wrote some things on a few papers and put them inside of a letter along with a ring.

After he came to the office of the Patriarch Nie Hai, he managed to secretly use his soul force to make the letter float to him and stayed hidden to watch his reaction.

Surprised by the floating letter, Nie Hai frowned and opened it, making a ring fall on his desk.

There were eight papers inside, on the first one was only four sentences, "That's the compensation for what I took. Sorry for the inconvenience but these objects aren't meant for people who haven't surpassed the Legend Rank. Other than the seven intended people, don't let anyone use these cultivation techniques or their bodies might explode. Thank you"

Looking at the seven other papers, he noticed that there was a different name at the top of each of them.

Reciting the technique of the paper meant for him, he could tell that it was incredibly powerful and that reaching the Legend Rank was just a matter of time.

He called out a servant and tell him to bring the six people to his office.

When the servant left he checked the storage ring and his body went stiff.

{5 Billion DSC? It can only be from the one who stole the blueprint and the black pearl from the treasury. Also the heirloom of the family but I'm the only one who knows about it since the others don't even know of its existence}

There was also seven Legend Rank Storage Rings inside of the ring, but he was already too shocked by the money to be surprised.

He muttered, "I would've accepted if that person asked to buy these things for 5 Billion. Even if they were important for the family, there would no longer be a family in a few years without this money"

Hearing Nie Hai mutterings, Xiao Yan felt a weigh lift from his shoulders, he thought, {I'm glad to hear it, but at that time I didn't have that much money, and I couldn't wait any longer}

It didn't take long for the servant to come back with the six people he was asked him to bring. He left after bringing them in.

Only now did Nie Hai notice that the six were from the same family branch. They were Nie En, Nie Ming, Xiao Yun, Nie Kai, Miao Ling and Nie Yu.

{Is it a coincidence or does that expert want to help Nie En's branch?}

He coughed and started, "You should already know that a few days ago, someone managed to steal two objects from the family treasury. Today I just received a letter from that person with his compensation to the family"

Putting six rings on the table he continued, "He left these storage rings for you, take one each"

That was an order from the Patriarch, they didn't dare to disobey and could only take the rings.

Standing up behind his desk, he then gave each of them their papers and said, "He also left these powerful cultivation techniques for you, don't tell anyone about it for now, it might bring us trouble. I'll take Nie Yu as my disciple, that way you'll be able to stay in the Mansion without anyone suspecting anything, and fully concentrate on your cultivation since it'll only be a matter of time before you reach the Legend Rank. Alright, you can leave to put everything you have in your rings, when you come back I'll have your new rooms ready"

They bowed and said, "Yes!"

Only once they left did they show their happiness, the Patriarch was a powerful Gold Rank Demon Spiritualist, they couldn't stay themselves in his presence.

Xiao Yan also left and thought, {Now they have enough money to last them for years and they would also have seven Legend Rank Demon Spiritualists excluding Nie Li. My debt is paid.}
