Douluo: I started with Blue Silver Grass, and I counterattacked and defeated the gods

Chapter 5: The Covetousness of the Ant King Douluo

Just as Zhou Ke was thinking about the future of his Blue Silver Grass.

The door of his room was pushed open with a creak.

Zhou Ke jumped off the bed reflexively, and cloud patterns appeared on his right palm, which was a precursor to the activation of the Dark Gold Claw.

Fortunately, the person who pushed the door open was the old butler Fred.

Zhou Ke was relieved after seeing who was coming. It was not his fault that he was so nervous and had the signs of paranoia. It was just that he had just obtained the golden finger and was extremely sensitive.

"Uncle De, has the leader of the kidnapping gang been dealt with?"

Fred was surprised that his master had just escaped from the kidnappers, but recovered from his fright so quickly, and as soon as he woke up he asked about the kidnappers' fate.

He was not that surprised. Over the years, he had become accustomed to Zhou Ke's precocity.

"You are still locked up in the training room in the mansion, Master. You just recovered from your exhaustion. Although you have been treated by a healing spirit master, your muscles and bones have not yet grown, so it is best not to do anything too strenuous."

The old butler had a worried look on his face. After Zhou Ke fainted, he carefully checked the young master's body. Even though he was a veteran who had fought in the battlefield, he was shocked by Zhou Ke's muscle damage.

The healing spirit master who came to treat the child was also amazed, and before leaving, he advised that it was a good thing to hone the child's physical strength, but he must not destroy him in such a cruel way.

Zhou Ke could feel some slight soreness in his body, but now was not the time to worry about it. He put on his shoes while continuing:
"Uncle De, go interrogate him first. I don't believe a group of kidnappers on the run would dare to target the Viscount of the Empire."

The old butler's expression changed. Yes, he was too concerned before and did not take a closer look at this sudden kidnapping.

You know, although Viscount is only above the lowest baron among the five ranks of nobility in the Xingluo Empire, he is not considered a high-ranking position in the empire's capital, Xingluo City.

But no matter how low the title is, it is still the face of the Star Luo Empire.

If such things were exposed, it would definitely cause the Xingluo royal family to lose face.

Then the instigator will definitely suffer the wrath of the royal family.

Therefore, as long as they are not stupid, they will never kidnap a registered noble.

And considering that they have committed crimes so many times and yet are still alive today, they are obviously not stupid. So there is probably an unknown reason behind this.

After figuring this out, he followed Zhou Ke to the training room in the old house.

The reason why that guy was locked up here is, firstly, there is no secret room or other building in the old house, and secondly, in this fantasy world, cultivation is absolutely the top priority.

The training room is the most private place, and only close relatives can enter.

After entering, Zhou Ke saw the appearance of the leader of the kidnapping gang clearly.

He was a burly man like the gangster killed by Zhou Ke, and their faces were somewhat similar. It was very likely that they were brothers.

The bulging black suit was covered in dark red bloodstains, and there were several hideous knife wounds on the chest that were so deep that the bones could be seen.

If it weren't for the soul master's physique, especially the beast soul soul master's physique which is far superior to that of ordinary people, he would definitely not be like this now, with just a pale face.

Although he was awake, he was tied tightly with long chains made of some metal. Most importantly, on his hands were restraining soul guides that were specifically designed to suppress soul power.

There was no expression of anxiety or other signs of being captured on his face, but after Zhou Ke came in, his eyes were clearly flustered.

"Who sent you here?" Zhou Ke's somewhat childish voice echoed in the sparsely decorated and extremely spacious training room.

"Just because I told you, will you let me go?" A weak but still rough voice came out of his mouth.

"I'm just trying to see if I can gain more benefits from this before the people from the Imperial City Bureau come. If you don't want to answer, you will have no choice but to be taken away by them. I think you should have heard of their methods."

Zhou Ke's behavior was not like that of a six-year-old child at all, but the gang leader was no longer interested in this.

After hearing about the Imperial City Division, his eyes became even more shaken.

If it was the Xingluo Guards who came to interrogate him, the people behind him might have been able to protect him in order to avoid getting into trouble.

But the Imperial City Bureau is directly under the Xingluo royal family, and is the royal guard that only obeys the Xingluo Emperor himself.

Even the Duke of White Tiger, whose power is second only to the emperor in the current Xing Luo Empire, cannot influence the affairs of the Imperial City Bureau, or he dares not have any contact with it at all.

Because everyone knows that this behavior is equivalent to pulling teeth from a tiger's mouth, and is a provocation and teasing to the Xingluo Emperor.

The gang leader was obviously not as smart as the murdered gang leader. Without waiting for Zhou Ke to put further pressure on him, he called out the person behind him:

"It was Juli Douluo, he ordered us to come here! Let me go, and I can give you all my money!"

Zhou Ke's expression remained unchanged. He had anticipated this situation when he had been blessed with super-dimensional light, which greatly enhanced his thinking and computing abilities.

Cheng Gang, the Great Strength Douluo, is one of the Protector of the Xing Luo Empire.

Zhou Ke knew him, and this guy had appeared not only in the original novel.

But three years ago, when Zhou Ke's parents passed away, this Titled Douluo with the Ant King's martial soul came to the house. This was because Zhou Ke's grandfather had some friendship with him.

Zhou Ke was able to remain calm, but the old butler lost his composure. With cold eyes, he stared at the gang leader and said loudly:

"Are you trying to stir up trouble? You should know that when I was young, His Majesty Juli was on good terms with my Viscount Master, and he also provided protection for me when the Viscount's Mansion was in decline!"

The gang leader was frightened by the murderous intent in the old housekeeper's eyes, and he quickly explained:

"What I said is true. It was Giant Strength Douluo who came to us personally to kidnap us. He promised to protect us afterwards. Otherwise, how could we reach out to the nobles?"

"Let's believe what you said, but what about the money you got from kidnapping over the years?" Zhou Ke asked.

The gang leader's mind was somewhat broken, but he had not yet lost his mind, nor was he a complete fool:

"As long as you swear on your spirit to let me go, I will tell you where I hid my money!"

"I can promise to let you go after I get the money. Don't bargain anymore. This is your only chance!"

Zhou Ke's tone was not harsh, but it had an uneasy tone.

In addition, he raised his right hand, and saw cloud patterns stacked up, and a little bit of dark golden light appeared from under the skin.

A wild atmosphere spread in the training room.

The gang leader felt his soul tremble, and beads of sweat the size of beans kept dripping from his forehead.
