Eroge: I can Travel To The Ancient World

Chapter 63: Phoenix Cloud Pavilion

" Jia Hao!"

" Son in Law!"

Old Yang rushed to Jia Hao and checked on him worriedly. " Young Master, Are you alright?"

" Of course I am alright." Jia Hao laughed. " What could have happened to me?"

However, His mind remained focused to Zhu Wuya whose eys slowly lost their light. One could see an extreme unwillingness on his face as he looked at Jia Hao.

But Jia Hao only gave him a smile of sympathy and pity as he showed him a middle finger.

' Go fuck yourself, You old bastard!' Jia Hao mumbled inwardly.

The moment Zhu Wuya died, the surge of negative energy increased as Jia Hao flet he was absorbing a corporeal energy rather than just emotions.

His seed of desires devoured it greedily as it slowly grew in size. However, he became surprised when he saw two cards slowly appeared on the corpse of Zhu Wuya.

' No way! So…This is what the pot means absorbing soul and vital energy?'

' Wait, Does that mean absorbing the soul, I can also absorb the skills of the people I have killed?'

' Is that's way too much?'

However, Jia Hao realized that none of the skills of Zhu Wuya were appeasing to him. After all, his mathematical knowledge and Sage's Divine Eyes were powerful than his Accounting Talent.

And it terms of being a smooth talker, Jia Hao is simply unmatched.

" How is it possible that Zhu Wuya managed to conceal a small dagger in his body?" Cai Yixue's voice became cold as she looked at the guards.

" Did you not check him at all? What if something had happened?!"

The guards who arrested and brought Zhu Wuya here became silent. However, Jia Hao waved his hand.

" It's alright, What happened, happened. Now we should focus on the future."

" Indeed, Little Jia is right." Cai Yunhai sighed as he looked at the corpse.

" Take away this disgusting thing. Confesticate his family property and banish them thousand miles in south."

Jia Hao sighed inwardly when he heard that. No matter what, Zhu Wuya worked in Cai Family for a long time. If it was someone else, their entire clan would have been slaughtered.

However, Cai Yunhai merely giving them banishment, at least giving them a chance to live.

As his corpse was taken and the floor cleaned, Cai Yunhai looked at Jia Hao.

" Hao'er, I believe such an embezzlement, Zhu Wuya couldn't have pulled it alone. What do you think?"

" I believe the same, Patriarch Cai." Jia Hao spoke as his lips curled into a grin. " I am trying to find the account book which listed everyone who took bribes from Zhu Wuya. When we get that…"

Hearing Jia Hao's words, many elders of the Cai Family flinched as their backs drenched in sweat.

" However, I believe they were certainly tricked by Zhu Wuya, getting blinded by money and greed for a moment. I believe they are still loyal to the Cai Family."

" Hence, We should give them a way out."

" What does the elders think?"

Seeing Jia Hao facing them, the elders nodded profusely.

" Son in Law Jia is benevolent!"

" Indeed! During such times, we shouldn't have any internal conflicts. We should stand strong together."

" Son in Law's vision is far sighted."

' These old geezers.' Cai Yixue almost spat from cringe when she saw their actions. However, she was also curious why Jia Hao letting them off the hook.

" However, As they did some crime, they should also do attonment." Jia Hao added as he looked at Patriarch Cai.

" How about we create an attonment box? In this box, the elders shall put half of their black money anonymously. The identity of them shall remain hidden."

" But… If the box doesn't meet the required target…We can always find the account book."

Cai Yunhai was momentarily stunned before bursting into loud laughter.

" Hahahah! Good! Good Son in Law! What a good idea!"

Standing up, Cia Yunhai nodded. " Deploy this idea. I am giving everyone five days of time. I don't care who you are and how much have you taken."

" However, If the box doesn't meet the quota…Hehe, I hope everyone knows about Cai Family's strict discipline."

Saying that, he turned around and walked away. However, before passing Jia Hao, he patted his shoulder.

" En, Good Job, Hao'er. I shall remember this always."

Jia Hao smiled as he saw a wave of bright yellow thread of happiness and gratitude coming from Cai Yunhai's heart and absorbed by him.

He also got another wave from Old Yang and his wife, Cai Yixue. However, he felt he had seen it wrong when he saw a tint of pink mixed with Cai Yixue's gratitude.

Nonetheless, the most energy he absorbed after killing Zhu Wuya was the pure emotion of shock from the spectators.

After all, they were simply awed and envious by Jia Hao's momentum, and how easily he managed to solve Zhu Wuya's problem.

" Hiss! I thought he was only a mortal scholar! How come he killed Zhu Wuya in a single punch?"

" Damn it! It looks like he is truly pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger."

" Come with me, Right now!"

Hearing Cia Yixue's command, Jia Hao's imposing demeanor crumbled as he wagged his tail before going after her.

" As you say, Dear Wife."

Cai Yixue's ears turned red as she hurriedly dragged Jia Hao out.

" Are you really alright? Damn it, Why did you stand so close to him?"

Cai Yixue couldn't help but berate him. Jia Hao grinned when he saw Cai Yixue was concerned about him.

" Well, My wife, Didn't you see? Your husband is pretty powerful."

" Hmm, You really killed a Ninth stage Body Tempering Realm practitioner with a punch, hm?" Cai Yixue looked at him.

" Not bad. I guess along with Crimson Vigor Pill, you have been practicing well."

" Hehe, Will I receive any reward for my performance?" Jia Hao raised his eyebrows as he slowly pushed Cai Yixue into a corner.

" Reward? What sort of reward do you want?" Cai Yixue's voice quivered as she looked around in a slight panic.

" How about tonight…"

" Young lady? Young Lady, where are you?"

Suddenly, hearing Minmin, Cai Yixue pushed Jia Hao away as she adjusted her robes.

" Hmph, What a rogue."

Cai Yixue spat out. " Besides… You are free to go around anywhere you want today. Take it as…reward."

" Anywhere I want?" Jia Hao became confused. " Where am I supposed to go?"

" Hmph, Don't you think I don't know you were lingering around Phoenix Cloud Pavilion?" Cai Yixue snorted.

" What's that?" Jia Hao became even more confused.

" Yo-You!"

Cai Yixue became both surprised and a bit angry when she heard Jia Hao acting ignorant. Weren't all the men want to spend the night there? What's with Jia Hao?

Without saying anything, Cai Yixue stomped her feet and walked away, leaving an oblivious Jia Hao.

As he suddenly saw Old Yang coming out, Jia Hao walked towards him.

" Old Yang, Do you know what Phoenix Cloud Palace is?"

" Wh-What?!"

Old Yang became alarmed as he almost covered Jia Hao's mouth. " Young Master, How can you speak that aloud?"

" What happened? Is this some taboo place?" Jia Hao looked at him.

" Of course." Old Yang became speechless.

" It's the most famous brothel of Nanhai City."
