"I heard it, I heard it! I am willing to take you there, Young Master Meng!"

Feeling the murderous intent from Peng Ru, even though Meng Meng was writhing on the ground in pain, he still quickly reacted and answered urgently.

Nothing is more important than preserving one's life!

Moreover, once home, perhaps there might be another chance?

Although this woman is crazy, her strength is only at the Condensing Truth realm, but as for Wang Junze's strength, he couldn't discern it at all.

"Who is committing crimes here?"

In just a blink of an eye, street patrol soldiers had already rushed over upon hearing the commotion and shouted sternly.

Although the strength of these soldiers wasn't strong, in the Netherworld City, they paid no mind to any cultivator.

On the contrary, Wang Junze was still full of smiles, seemingly unfazed by all of it.

"Don't you see these officers coming over? Shouldn't you go to Young Master Meng's place to fetch Spirit Stones to pay the penalty?"

Raising his head, Wang Junze lazily spoke: "We always follow the rules and never do anything illegal."

"???"

Hearing Wang Junze's words, Meng Meng was dumbfounded.

You killed my people, and now expect me to pay the penalty? Are you insane?

"I didn't kill them..."

Almost instinctively, Meng Meng wanted to refute, or even seek help from the soldiers.

But before he could speak, he met Peng Ru's icy gaze, which felt like a bucket of cold water over him, instantly sapping his courage to resist.

The rules of the Netherworld Mansion were clearer to him than anyone, these soldiers wouldn't care who was right or wrong, as long as one refused to pay the penalty, they'd act as if they saw nothing.

Of course, he could gamble that Wang Junze couldn't pay such a hefty fine.

After all, killing so many people in one go, the penalty was definitely not a small amount, but... could he dare gamble?

What if he could pay?

Even, considering the worst case, what if this madwoman killed him in front of these soldiers and then used his money to pay the fine?!

"Twelve people dead, nine Condensing Truth, three Opening Veins... Penalty: Three thousand Spirit Stones!"

The leading soldier, although a bit surprised, coldly announced.

Glancing coldly at Meng Meng, he had no choice but to shiveringly step forward and honestly pay the fine.

"Collect the bodies, let's go!"

After receiving the fine, the leading soldier blandly instructed, and in moments, the soldiers adeptly moved forward to drag away the corpses.

"Young Master Meng, shall we go too?"

With a light chuckle, obviously quite satisfied with the Netherworld Mansion's rules, Wang Junze leisurely spoke.

Meng Meng dared not refuse and obediently led the way towards the Meng Mansion.

"By the way!"

As if suddenly remembering something, before leaving, Wang Junze turned once again to the soldiers, smilingly saying: "It's late at night, it's hard work for you officers. After cleaning up here, why not take a trip to the Meng Mansion, maybe there's more money to be made."

"???"

Upon hearing Wang Junze's words, even these Netherworld Mansion soldiers were dumbfounded.

Over the years, they had encountered many cultivators in the Netherworld City, whether arrogant or domineering, they got used to it, but it was the first time meeting someone like Wang Junze who was so law-abiding.

After killing people, casually paying the penalty is one thing, but to proactively tell them where he plans to kill next... it's absurd!

No!

Meng Mansion!

With eyes narrowing, the leading soldier immediately realized.

"Meng Mansion... Meng Hailong, this isn't good, something's going to happen! Quickly, you must immediately report to the commander, trouble is brewing tonight!"

Seeing over a dozen Condensing Realm killed on the street wasn't a big deal, but Meng Hailong was a true Heaven-Stepping powerhouse, and if someone really intended to go to the Meng Mansion, a huge war was imminent.

This was not something ordinary street patrol soldiers could handle.

...

Strolling casually.

Wang Junze seemed genuinely relaxed, as if just wandering on the street, and shortly after, reached the entrance of the Meng Family.

Looking at the signboard on the gate of the Meng Mansion, Wang Junze smiled: "Young Master Meng, we are home... aren't you going to knock?"

"..."

Seeing that Wang Junze wasn't joking, Meng Meng braced himself against his fear and stepped forward to bang on his family gate.

"Open the door, hurry up!"

In moments, the gate of the Meng Mansion was opened, and a group of family servants, initially not paying much attention, as Meng Meng arriving late wasn't unusual; however, upon seeing Meng Meng covered in blood and missing a hand, their faces turned pale with fright and screamed in shock.

"Young Master, Young Master, what happened to you?"

A servant stepped forward to support Meng Meng, fearfully asking.

"...Help me!"

Having been thoroughly frightened before, and now finally home, Meng Meng couldn't help but cry out in snot and tears, feeling aggrieved.

"Cry louder, otherwise I'm afraid Master Meng won't hear you!"

Wang Junze carelessly remarked with a smile, not caring at all about Young Master Meng's reaction.

"Who are you people?"

At last, the Meng Mansion people noticed Wang Junze and Peng Ru, and with a trace of murderous intent, loudly demanded.

Buzz!

Without needing Wang Junze's instruction, Peng Ru drew her sword again, attacking the Meng family servants.

In the blink of an eye, most servants were already slaughtered, leaving only a few who fled on hands and knees into the mansion.

Meng Meng too wanted to flee, but seeing Peng Ru in action again, he was immediately scared stiff and collapsed to the ground.

"Young Master told you to cry louder, didn't you hear?"

With her sword still dripping blood, Peng Ru turned to Meng Meng, speaking coldly.

"...Help me!"

Having experienced losing a hand before, how could Meng Meng hesitate again, bawling, hoarsely screaming out hysterically.

After finishing this, Peng Ru returned to Wang Junze's side, bowed and respectfully said, "Young Master, please!"

Nodding in satisfaction, Wang Junze walked step by step over the corpses in front of him and entered the Meng Mansion.

Moonlight fell, shining on both of them, making it all the more glaring.

The next moment, the entire Meng Mansion was in chaos, countless people swarmed out from inside, surrounding Wang Junze and Peng Ru from afar.

However, seeing all the blood and corpses on the ground, no one dared step forward for the moment.

"Who dares to harm my son?!"

In a breath, a terrifying aura emerged from within the mansion, roaring angrily.

Meng Hailong!

The Heaven-Stepping powerhouse finally showed himself, though not yet there, that overwhelming aura crushed down, even Peng Ru's complexion turned pale, involuntarily stepping back, retreating behind Wang Junze.

No matter how crazy she was, facing a Heaven-Stepping powerhouse was far beyond her capacity.
