The Prodigal Son

Guo Yang is very patient.

Or rather, he enjoys everything he does.

The dozens of assassins who had their tongues bitten off all had their limbs shattered by Guo Yang's shockwave, and they all transformed into pupae, writhing painfully on the ground like maggots.

Just as their first wave of pain was beginning to subside under the influence of adrenaline, Guo Yang presented them with a second gift.

Exploding eggs with bare hands!

Guo Yang, without getting tired, crushed their testicles one by one.

Yes, it was crushed directly, making Qin Yu subconsciously cover his crotch.

A chorus of piercing screams filled the air, sending chills down one's spine.

However, Guo Yang did not say a word from beginning to end, and his facial expression did not change at all.

It was as if he were doing something extremely ordinary.

After doing all this, Guo Yang slowly stood up. "Since they don't want to talk, let them fend for themselves here!"

"good!"

Qin Yu glanced at Guo Yang guiltily, as if afraid that Guo Yang might suddenly lash out and crush his testicles.

Guo Yang, expressionless, grabbed the only assassin who hadn't bitten off his tongue and walked straight towards the entrance of the secret passage.

Qi Dachui swallowed hard, gently tugged at Qin Yu's sleeve, and whispered, "Thirteenth Young Master, isn't this the pervert you were talking about?"

That's so brutal!

Even Qi Dachui, who was fearless, was secretly trembling with fear at Guo Yang's methods.

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Qin Yu glared at Qi Dachui, "Be careful he doesn't hear this and crush your balls too."

Stupid!

They dare to say anything!

When you encounter a master like Guo Yang, you should be obedient!

If it falls into the hands of Ning Huang and Zhao Po, it will at best be chopped into mincemeat.

Falling into this person's hands would be worse than death!

Qi Dachui's body stiffened, and he subconsciously squeezed his legs together.

Qin Yu moved closer to Zeng Guan's hand and asked in a low voice, "Is your Baojing Division's method more powerful, or is Steward Guo's method more powerful?"

"this……"

Zeng Guan glanced silently at the "pupae" and chuckled dryly, "Anyway, I wouldn't dare to provoke him! But you can try! You helped the Empress Dowager find out the real culprit who murdered the Crown Prince. Even if you provoke him, he probably won't do anything to you."

"Get lost!"

Qin Yu laughed and scolded, "You still have Senior Zhao backing you up!"

"Forget it!"

Zeng Guan shook his head and smiled wryly, "I guess even my godfather wouldn't want to provoke him, only Senior Ning doesn't take him seriously at all..."

Qin Yu chuckled and said in a low voice, "Tell me about this person's deeds when you have time."

Zeng Guan curled his lip, "Why don't you just go ask him?"

"I dare not!"

Qin Yu readily admitted defeat.

This is someone you really shouldn't mess with!

This guy is a total egg-bursting maniac!

Even if he doesn't think about himself, he should at least think about his brothers!

On the way back, they were much faster because they had marked the route.

Before leaving, Guo Yang also blasted the exit of the secret passage with a palm strike, blocking it completely.

After returning to the Shi family through the secret passage, Qin Yu slightly distanced himself from Guo Yang. "Steward Guo, you're in charge of interrogating this person. Just let us know when you're done."

"Um."

Guo Yang didn't say anything more and simply carried the assassin to the side.

Qin Yu glanced at Guo Yang and then quickly led his men to check on the results of the raid on the Baojing Division's property.

Although it was completely dark, the search of the Shi family's property continued.

However, the search is basically complete; all that remains is to take inventory.

A group of people were counting the items one by one. Judging from their appearance, the task of counting alone must have exhausted them.

Looking at the mountains of gold and silver treasures piled up in the flower hall, Qin Yu couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement.

With this investigation and confiscation by the historians, Zhao Luan will certainly no longer have to worry about the court's finances for the time being.

This is a case of the historian falling down while Zhao Luan gets his fill!

"Has the inventory been completed?"

Qin Yu summoned Pei Du and questioned him.

"Not yet!"

Pei Du shook his head, looking somewhat troubled. "There's just too much stuff, and we're still short-handed. We can only do a rough inventory right now. It would probably take at least two or three days to list everything out in detail!"

Too much!

Moreover, this is only the property of the eldest branch of the Shi family.

The Shi family's extended household must have possessed a considerable amount of gold and silver treasures.

Two other groups were conducting a search and seizure operation, and they were still unaware of the specifics.

Zeng Guan pondered for a moment, then immediately ordered, "No need for inventory yet. Immediately order everyone to send everything that was confiscated to the Prefect's residence! Send all the property belonging to the collateral branches of the Shi family to the Prefect's residence as well! We can inventory it later!"

"Boss Zeng, this...this doesn't follow the proper procedures!"

Pei Du frowned slightly and then cast a questioning glance at Qin Yu.

As professionals who specialize in confiscating property, Baojingsi has a strict procedure for doing so.

All valuables must be counted on-site before being put into storage.

Otherwise, all sorts of messy things can easily happen.

However, Qin Yu now holds the reins of military and political power in the Nine Provinces.

If Qin Yu nods, that's a different story.

"Why are you looking at me? Just do as I say!"

Qin Yu glared at Pei Du. "Rules are rules, but people are flexible! How long would it take you to list everything out one by one? The city is definitely not going to be peaceful tonight. Who the hell has time to slowly take stock of all this stuff?"

"what……"

The piercing screams drew their attention.

Upon hearing the scream, Qin Yu and the others instinctively squeezed their legs together.

Pei Du looked at the group of people in their strange positions, puzzled. "What's wrong with you guys?"

The group exchanged awkward glances but said nothing.

It's obvious without even thinking that the assassin is being tortured by Guo Yang.

I wonder if that person has turned into a testicle-bursting maniac again.

"Alright, forget about it!"

Qin Yu waved his hand, "Quickly order someone to send all these things to the Prefect's Mansion! Also, tonight... never mind! Let Boss Zeng arrange things for you tonight! I'm too lazy to bother with this."

"OK!"

Zeng Guan nodded in agreement.

About fifteen minutes later, Guo Yang arrived.

Guo Yang said expressionlessly, "They had already received news of the Shi family's property being searched. They were only there on orders to meet any Shi family members who might escape through the secret passage! When I tried to ask them anything else, that traitor bit off his own tongue..."

Towards the end, Guo Yang's expression finally changed slightly.

He hadn't expected that all of Shi's assassins would be so tough.

It must be said that the historians were very successful in training these assassins.

These people are true suicide squad members.

Putting everything else aside, they certainly deserved the money the historians spent on them.

"fine."

Qin Yu smiled calmly, "I'd like to see just how much of a commotion these assassins, painstakingly trained by the Shi family, can cause!"

Suicide squad?

What good are thousands of loyal followers to historians when faced with the state apparatus?
