Chapter 240: [196] Murder and Arson, a Gold Belt, Superb Skills with Blade (Seeking Monthly Passes, Recommendations, and Support)_1
That afternoon at four o’clock,

Pei Jinye was dressed in a black trench coat, and at the moment, he had changed his face. Not wanting to expose his actions this time, he had specifically adopted a new, unrecognizable face that would blend into a crowd, heading straight for Storm City.

Storm City wasn’t exactly a large place,

but it was much stronger than a small area like Da Peng City, with a permanent population that exceeded Da Peng by nearly three million and tax revenues of over ten billion more.

It was said that before Zhou Weiren took office, the Governor of Storm City had already intercepted quite a few enterprises from Da Peng City, leading to Da Peng’s rapid decline.

And Storm City thrived on the migration of these industries.

This time, Pei Jinye did not take any public transportation. Instead, he took the black line of a transportation team, which was quite common in the gray zones.

As long as you provided money, nobody would question your identity or destination.

It so happened that the other party was also headed to the ore district in Mist Mountain, yet it was still quite a distance from the Inheritance Cave Mansion.

The twenty-plus meters long hovering ore cart, silent as a Rage Dragon shuttling through the sea of clouds, left Da Peng City without a sound.

The exhibition area.

Pei Jinye gazed out the porthole at the sea of clouds that was receding continuously, pondering the journey ahead.

“Wow, it’s so beautiful,”

exclaimed a little girl from behind him.

Pei Jinye turned around to look.

The little girl appeared to be only eight or nine years old, with very bright eyes that were clean and clear, shining like Dazzling Stars. Not knowing what she was thinking, she suddenly gave Pei Jinye a radiant smile.

“Little Fu,”

a soft call came from the side.

Pei Jinye and the little girl both looked up.

“Sister Ah Li,”

the little girl replied with a sweet smile.

Pei Jinye, however, was stunned.

The person who came was the beautiful young girl he had encountered earlier in the village.

To be precise…

Wasn’t this a member of the Starfire Army!

How come he had encountered her here as well!

The girl, Ah Li, watched Pei Jinye with a suspicious look, but was quickly led away by the little girl’s hand.

Pei Jinye silently withdrew his gaze.

All he hoped was that no accidents would occur during this night’s journey.

Just as he turned to walk away,

Pei Jinye suddenly frowned; he had been marked!

Was it the Starfire Army?

Or someone else?

The people boarding the black ship at this hour were definitely not clean.

But who could it be?

Pretending to return to his quarters, Pei Jinye stealthily sensed his surroundings.

At the crossroads,

a frail young man in a hoodie, upon being spotted by Pei Jinye, turned and left.

Pei Jinye’s eyes slightly narrowed.

An hour later,

it had completely darkened outside.

The ore ship had stopped twice en route.

Twenty minutes ago, the girl named Ah Li had already disembarked with the little girl, and with them were two middle-aged men, both wearing human skin masks; one of them was carrying a Longsword.

At eight twenty in the evening,

Pei Jinye finally arrived at Mist Mountain.

True to its name,

even before the dead of night, a vast fog had already gathered deep in the mountain range, and it seemed to be spreading out towards the exterior with time.

Pei Jinye quickly made his way.

Within a few steps, he vanished into the mist.

Shortly after, two figures hurriedly followed in his wake.

“Where is he?”

“I told you this guy was suspicious. Look at the way he’s dressed; he’s definitely got goods on him!”

“Search quickly.”

“No, run for it!”

The man in the hoodie suddenly exclaimed in shock and hid behind the fog.

His burly companion, however, was a step too slow and was instantly sliced in half by a flash of gold.

The man in the hoodie, his face sprayed with blood, looked on in horror at the scene before him.

Dead?

Just like that, in an instant?

He had never expected that the assailant would be so ruthlessly direct, not even bothering to ask a single superfluous question.

At that moment,

he realized that he and his companion had kicked an iron plate.

“Brother, it’s all a misunderstanding; we are from the Simon Association… Please, spare us.”

“The Simon Association?”

From within the mist, a figure emerged, wearing a black trench coat.

The moment he appeared,

the gold light in his hand beheaded the man in the hoodie.

As the fog dispersed,

only a whisper sounded through the mist,

“What organization you’re from is none of my damn business.”

Swiftly searching the two bodies, Pei Jinye found a surprisingly good haul.

It seemed the two had been involved in a number of ambushes for loot, to have over ten pieces of jewelry and more than forty thousand in cash hidden on them.

Although this amount of money wasn’t much for Pei Jinye now, it was still a pleasant surprise.

“Clang!”

The burly man had a Horizontal Knife hidden on him, with a blade about thirty centimeters long and a hilt carved with patterns, of good quality.

Pei Jinye, using his myriad memories in his mind, could tell… just the knife alone could sell for at least one or two hundred thousand, and if including the well-crafted sheath, it would not go for less than two hundred thousand.

He himself possessed Transcendent weaponry.

He had seldom revealed this in Da Peng City, also using it as a means for other identities.

Now, on his journey to Mist Mountain, adding a knife as a disguise, who would have thought that Pei Jinye was the one committing murder and theft!

…

“It turns out these two little thieves also had some valuable items on them, what a pity they were killed too early.”

Deep in the mountains, Pei Jinye did not set the bodies on fire.

The light of a fire at night would be far too conspicuous in the deep mountains.

At the moment, Pei Jinye’s senses told him the smell of blood had already attracted the attention of the beasts around, they were merely wary of his presence and dared not approach.

Pei Jinye sheathed the knife, turned around, and the next second he stepped out, he had already vanished into the mist where he stood.
