Chapter 1566: Chapter 1566: A Once-in-a-Century Good-for-Nothing
A golden Feather and the Divine Woman’s Tears, although these two clues don’t yet confirm the murderer, there’s at least some direction now.
Qin Yi washed his hands, and the four of them left the Feather Clan, heading to the street.
Peng City was bustling, the streets filled with a constant stream of people.
"It’s noon, let’s find a place to get something to eat first."
As Qin Yi was speaking, he looked up and saw an inn in the distance.
Yunbin Building.
Wasn’t this the place Luo Yuncai had invited him to?
"Let’s go there then!"
Qin Yi pointed at Yunbin Building and said.
Yun Mengyao laughed, "You really know how to pick a place, Yunbin Building is one of the best inns in Peng City."
"Then the food must be great, let’s go there."
"Of course, mountain animals, cloud swallows, land cattle, ocean delicacies, if you have money, you can eat anything."
Yun Mengyao said, looking at Qin Yi, smiling, "You’re treating!"
Qin Yi: "..."
"Why should I? We’re at your place, and you’re making me pay."
Yun Mengyao laughed, "Who are we to each other? We’re all on the same side, don’t stand on ceremony. Does it matter if it’s you or me treating?"
Qin Yi was speechless, Yun Mengyao’s face was really getting thicker by the day.
Seeing Yun Mengyao and the others already walking towards the inn, Qin Yi followed, feeling a bit depressed.
However, seeing the smile at the corner of Yun Mengyao’s mouth, Qin Yi suddenly felt that spending the money was worth it.
But as they were about to go in, they were blocked by two burly men with knives standing at the door.
Yin Qianqian curiously asked, "Why are there people guarding the door at your inn? Are you afraid of guests coming in? This is the first time I’ve seen someone doing business like this."
Yun Mengyao, however, wore a cold face, looking at the two burly men with her eyes fixed on the embroidery on their chests, it was the character ’Liang’ sewn with golden thread.
"They are from the Liang Family."
One of the burly men arrogantly said, "Since you know we’re from the Liang Family, why aren’t you getting lost? Today, we’ve booked this place, we won’t be serving outsiders."
Yun Mengyao’s eyes sank, and she sneered, "Typical Liang Family behavior, even the dogs below dare to bark randomly. If you spoke human words, I’d consider going elsewhere. But since you’re biting people randomly, I’ll just have to fly inside."
The two burly men had a fierce look in their eyes, their long knives drawn out half an inch.
"I see you have a death wish talking to us like that."
Yun Mengyao was about to speak when someone abruptly said from behind, "What’s going on? Why are you blocking the way here?"
Qin Yi and the others turned to look, and saw a pale-faced, sickly young man walking over with a few attendants.
"Second Young Master, these people were causing trouble here, we were just about to drive them away."
The young man sneered, "Who dares to challenge my Liang Family, who has such nerve... huh, you’re Yun Mengyao?"
The young man was full of astonishment.
Yun Mengyao indifferently said, "You know me?"
"I heard the Feather Clan’s Holy Daughter, who disappeared for several years, returned with a few wild men. I never expected to meet you here. I’m Liang Zifei."
Yun Mengyao’s pretty face was filled with coldness, but suddenly she started laughing, "I remember now, you’re the Liang Family’s good-for-nothing who only knows how to indulge in wine, women, and gambling, Liang Zifei."
"I vaguely remember meeting you before, but after a few years, looking at you now, with those spiritless eyes and that pale face, are you about to die?"
Liang Zifei looked like he was drained by debauchery, his Cultivation was pathetically weak, even though he was at the Golden Core Stage, it was feeble and weak, clearly built up with herbal remedies.
The Liang Family Head had two children, the eldest, Liang Zifei, and the second, Liang Zilong.
Even though Liang Zifei was the eldest son, he was of mediocre aptitude, and he loved pleasure and luxury, a true wastrel.
But Liang Zilong was different, with extraordinary talents and high Cultivation, they were complete opposites.
Liang Zifei’s pale face was flushed with anger, he was trembling all over, the thing he hated most was being compared with Liang Zilong.
What was Liang Zilong? Just a child from the second wife, he was the rightful future heir of the Liang Family.
Yun Mengyao saw through Liang Zifei’s thoughts, laughingly said, "Where’s that genius younger brother of yours? Has he already become the head of the Liang Family? I remember he was once considered a genius the Liang Family hadn’t seen in a century; now he must be one of the leading figures among Peng City’s younger generation, right?"
"As for you, you must be the rare waste of the century in the Liang Family."
"Honestly, talking to you is really degrading; Liang Zilong should be the one who comes; he is the one fit to speak with me."
Liang Zifei was about to explode with anger, Yun Mengyao’s words were like a sharp knife, stabbing directly into his heart with each sentence.
"You shameless bitch, what gives you the right to talk to me like that."
Liang Zifei was so angry he couldn’t control his mouth.
"Pa!"
Yun Mengyao was not one to indulge him, raising her hand and slapping Liang Zifei, sending him toppling down the stone stairs.
Liang Zifei was so dizzy from the fall, one side of his face swelled up, his mouth split, and a few teeth broke off, he was howling while clutching his face.
The passing people gathered around to watch the commotion.
The Liang Family was very ostentatious, dressed uniformly in blue robes with the golden character ’Liang’ embroidered on the chests, afraid others wouldn’t know they were from the Liang Family.
Moreover, this Liang Zifei, relying on his family’s connections, committed all sorts of misdeeds such as abducting girls, his infamy long established.
It was just that he was from the Liang Family, ordinary people couldn’t afford to offend him.
When they recognized Liang Zilong, the expressions of the people present showed satisfaction.
Yun Mengyao stood on the stone steps at the inn’s entrance, looking down on him, "Your mouth spews filth, even at my worst, I’m still a genius of the Feather Clan. What are you, a useless waste, who are you to bark at me."
"If Liang Zilong were here, I’d perhaps spare some face. But you, I’m worried you’d dirty my shoes by stepping on you."
Liang Zifei covered his face, yelling angrily at his guards, "You worthless fools, what are you standing around for? Beat this bitch to death, if anything happens, I’ll take responsibility."
Liang Zifei’s guards moved in unison, rushing towards Yun Mengyao.
Yun Mengyao sneered, raising her foot and stomping down hard.
With a bang, the stone slab beneath her shattered into countless fragments.
"If you’re not afraid of dying, come and try, I promise this stone slab will be your fate."
Liang Zifei’s guards weren’t highly Cultivated, good enough to bully ordinary people, but against a real master, they were nothing.
Seeing the stone slab shattered with a single stomp, how could they dare to step forward and court death, they didn’t advance but retreated instead.
"Worthless trash, what use do I have for you? Why are you still standing there? Get in there and chop her up with your blades."
Liang Zifei shouted like a mad dog.
But his men hesitated, they were paid by the Liang Family, but not by Liang Zifei. Besides, for the little money offered, it wasn’t worth risking their lives, they knew how to calculate such matters.
