Disappointment

Lu Zheng indifferently watched the corpse before grasping; he seemed to have grown accustomed to killing someone and seeing a nauseous scene.

He then recalled the time he vomited, when he witnessed the Scorching Blade Clan piled up in a mountain of corpses of the members of the Azure Tide Clan before burning them in a massive fire.

He helplessly watched it from afar, vomiting from time to time while tears crawled out on his eyelids.

Just remembering it made Lu Zheng feel something was twirling on his stomach.

He shook his head, trying to forget those revolting scenes as he focused on the sleeping other internal members.

He smirked, feeling like another free point was about to bestow on him.

He did not wait anymore as he walked forward, sometimes taking a stride due to the uneven floor filled with debris.

Their chair was even made of a broken part of the wall.

When he arrived at the sleeping internal members, his eyes flashed with cold glint as he sliced his neck, instantly ending his life.

[Congratulations! You have successfully killed an Apprentice Rank Cultivator! 

You have obtained 1 strength point.]

Another wave of refreshing feeling flowed all over his body, causing Lu Zheng to feel at ease.

His breathing relaxed as he purposely matched it with the breathing technique provided by the Ocean's Heart Qi Technique to circulate the Qi inside his meridians smoothly.

He relaxed his body and mind as he calmly swept his gaze to the two corpses.

Of course, as greedy as he was, he could not help but grin, remembering taking three silver coins from a single internal member.

He was expecting these two corpses to provide more silver coins than the lecherous internal members.

He did not waste any more time as he searched for the leather pouch of the near corpse.

Of course, he did not forget to feel anticipated by the Qi Gathering Pills he might be able to take.

However, when he saw the leather pouch, he only saw two silver coins and fifty copper coins.

He could not help but grumble about his bad luck.

His eyes landed on the corpse and kicked him lightly, blaming him.

"You poor piece of shit! That ugly person is richer than you. What are you even doing with your Qi Gathering Pills and money anyway? Do you gamble or what?"

The possibility of the corpse near him being embroiled in gambling, he felt it would make sense of how poor he was.

Nevertheless, after a light and quick tantrum, he grabbed the silver coins and placed them inside his leather pouch.

Now, he had ten silver coins, which was not bad.

Another five silver coins, and he would stop, for he could feel the weight from the leather pouch.

Furthermore, the space was limited either, as he could only take another two Qi Gathering Pills.

He was expecting more from the other corpse, so he eagerly walked towards it and grabbed its leather pouch.

He could feel more weight than the other corpse's leather pouch, inciting him with expectations.

However, his expectations were soon disappointed when he saw three silver coins and hundreds of copper coins with no Qi Gather Pills at all.

He cursed his bad luck.

When his eyes landed on the corpse, he kicked him lightly multiple times as he was passing the blame towards him.

"You, another poor piece of shit. Don't tell me that lecherous guy is richer than any of you?"

He threw a tantrum for a while before calming down.

He realized he was easily exasperated, so he calmed his mind, executing the breathing technique from the Ocean's Heart Qi Technique.

He knew that having a low temper was bad for his cultivation, especially because he cultivated the Ocean's Heart Qi Technique, focusing on inner peace and mental clarity.

Finding himself to calm down, he seized the three silver coins, ignoring the copper coins as he threw them on the floor, together with the leather core, producing a muffled noise.

Now, he could not help but be curious as to why the lecherous guy was richer than them.

In truth, all the internal members were rewarded with another two Qi Gathering Pills three days ago and five silver coins after annihilating the Scorching Blade Clan.

They were ecstatic, but only the lecherous guy had a different reason.

It was because, together with the Qi Gathering Pills and five silver coins as the reward, they would be given a sex slave, which was a member of the Azure Tide Clan, who surrendered to them.

It was only exclusive to the internal members and who badly wanted it.

At first, he only received one woman slave, but since he deeply wanted a threesome, he brought the other one with two silver coins and a Qi Gathering Pill from the monthly given pills, as he only used a single one.

Then, he used the next three days, having three some, until he was forcefully stopped after he received the mission to guard the place.

Meanwhile, his fellow internal members quickly took the Qi Gathering Pills with them, causing them to reach the peak of their realm.

Only that, they needed more training to enhance their physical abilities, so once they became an Intermediate Rank, they would not only have ten Qi, but their physical capabilities were worthy of an Intermediate Rank.

It was an unwritten rule to balance the quality of the body and Qi.

After the other internal members consumed the Qi Gathering Pills, they celebrated by eating in a restaurant, causing them to reduce their money.

Hence, it resulted in the thief, Lu Zheng, feeling he was robbed of their poor amount of money.

They could not even provide Qi Gathering Pills aside from their lecherous fellow internal members.

Lu Zheng assumed such situations must have happened, making him closer to the truth, but he could not be certain about his assumption.

Nevertheless, since it was probable, he concluded with such a conclusion.

He patted the leather coins, trying to be satisfied by his current amount of money, even having two Qi Gathering Pills, as he decided to leave the scene.

However, just as he had taken three steps towards the place where he had hidden earlier, he stopped, as he solemnly stared forward.

A person soon emerged from the shadow, causing him to sneer.

He said, "Now, that saves my time."

He heard the person gritting his teeth, and he felt delighted seeing his exasperated expression.
