Chapter 4878: Don’t do anything unnecessary
Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
It would be best to avoid any unnecessary action.
An Zhenyu was reluctant to let Huang Yueli and the others off without further discussion.
However, something did strike him as rather peculiar.
He had already taken the time to thoroughly examine the alchemy furnace from top to bottom. Despite the fact that it was almost smashed into pieces, he was unable to identify any issues with it despite checking it countless times.
Even if he wished to look for a bone in an egg, he was unable to do so.
As the day was drawing to a close, An Zhenyu finally straightened his back and said reluctantly,” The problem with this alchemy furnace is not small. However, it’s not easy for you two brats to get such a treasure. If I were to argue with you, it would seem that our White Marsh Race is not generous enough.”
Huang Yueli resisted the urge to roll her eyes, but instead she said, “Thank you, Young Master An, for your help.”
An Zhenyu’s demeanor was somewhat aloof as he grunted in acknowledgment. If I may be so bold, I would like to accept this alchemy furnace. If you would be so kind as to leave now.
Huang Yueli looked slightly perplexed and enquired, “Young Master An, could I possibly ask where my Senior Brother is?”
“What? Tell me, who am I? Are you worried that I will break the contract and not let him go?” An Zhenyu looked slightly displeased. I’m afraid that he isn’t here. He’s being held in a house on the outskirts of the city. Just follow the Steward to get him.
Huang Yueli narrowed her eyes.
She was somewhat taken aback by An Zhenyu’s lack of respect. He had already taken advantage of her, yet he was still reluctant to hand her over. It was obvious that he had bad intentions.
However, she took a moment to consider her options and decided to withhold judgement for now. Instead, she replied, “In that case, thank you, Young Master An. My husband and I will leave now. Please use this alchemy furnace well. It was not easy for my husband and I to obtain this item…”
She deliberately put on a conflicted expression, as if she were in a difficult situation and as if a piece of flesh had been cut off. Upon seeing it, An Zhenyu felt a sense of joy.
While he was pleased to have obtained a treasure, he felt a certain satisfaction in taking away someone else’s beloved item.
” Alright, alright.” He waved his hand.” Treasures are just worldly possessions. How can they be more important than human lives?” Liu Buyan had offended this Young Lord’s fiancée and this was originally a sin that couldn’t be made up for even with a thousand cuts but now I shall make the decision to release him! Men!”
An Zhenyu called out, and a Steward promptly made his way to him.
“Young Master, may I inquire as to what your orders are?”
“Take them to the dungeon and let that kid with the name Liu go!” An Zhenyu ordered.
The Steward was stunned for a moment.” Let him go? However, Young Master, that Liu…”
He was interrupted by An Zhenyu.
“If I told you to release, just go. Don’t do anything unnecessary. Do you understand?”
The Steward was visibly shaken and suddenly grasped the situation as he nodded his head in agreement and turned towards Huang Yueli.
“Everyone, please follow me.”
Xuan Jiuling didn’t suspect anything and heaved a sigh of relief.
Huang Yueli couldn’t help but notice that An Zhenyu’s tone seemed slightly off.
“Aren’t you in a hurry to save him?” he snorted coldly. Why aren’t you leaving yet?”
Huang Yueli regained her senses and looked towards the back corner of the room. “Young Master An, I believe we previously agreed that this damaged pill furnace of yours should be exchanged with mine.”
An Zhenyu was momentarily taken aback before recalling the agreement he had made on impulse.
However, he now had the benefit of a superior-grade Treasure Armament alchemy furnace. It was not of concern to him that the middle-grade Treasure Armament was damaged. He casually waved his hand and said, “Take it, take it.”
