The Strong Female Lead Versus The Most Miserable Male Lead-Chapter 459 - 458: Pillaged Completely
Chapter 459: Chapter 458: Pillaged Completely
The Star Thieves on the island were all dead, without even leaving a trace.
Nian Shutong removed the Spiritual Energy Shield and incinerated all the bodies completely, with the breeze dispersing the ashes and odors into the boundless sea.
"It could also be considered a sea burial."
Nian Shutong, who studied the knowledge of Earth Heart daily, found the knowledge points increasingly strange.
While Fu Yunhe, who had only made one move from the beginning to the end, had been watching Nian Shutong throughout.
His gaze, bit by bit, became scorching.
In his eyes, he found nothing inappropriate about Nian Shutong’s actions; in fact, he agreed and admired them even more.
Each of Nian Shutong’s movements got his heart racing, completely captivated.
This was simply the aesthetics of slaughter; he was more than just fond of it. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
At this moment, the pirate castle had only one lecher left, who couldn’t scream but was still subjected to Ling Chi, struggling to live.
Whenever he couldn’t endure any longer or lost too much blood, Nian Shutong would shoot a pill and feed it precisely to the old lecher.
Fu Yunhe curiously asked, "What are you feeding him?"
"Poison."
"A type that stimulates his will to survive but uses his heart’s blood as a catalyst. Once the effects wear off, he’s nearly done."
Fu Yunhe understood. So, the old lecher was exhausting his own energy to endure the completion of Ling Chi.
"This medicine isn’t bad. We could use it in the future."
Nian Shutong looked at Fu Yunhe appreciatively and remarked, "Good eye!"
After handling everything, the two walked back to Dou Dou and untied his blindfold.
Dou Dou, having his blindfold removed, rubbed his eyes and, adapting to the light, asked a bit confusedly, "Auntie, have we changed locations?"
In his view, there were only Auntie and Uncle Xiao He; no one else was there.
Even the old lecher was hidden by a sleight of hand, invisible to Dou Dou.
"No, auntie has driven all the bad guys away."
"They robbed us, and now it’s our turn to rob them."
Nian Shutong held Dou Dou’s hand, put away the chair, and the little white mouse returned to Nian Shutong’s body, sniffing continuously.
"Master, the southeast corner, underground."
"Xiao He, I have a feeling today that there seems to be unexpected wealth over there. Shall we check it out?"
"Gladly."
The two exchanged smiles and headed towards the southeast corner.
When they reached the southeast corner and found a downward tunnel, both went down as Nian Shutong cast a spell.
"There are people below, people who are captive. Let’s change our appearances."
"Sure, I’ll listen to you."
Fu Yunhe’s words, tender as water.
Nian Shutong wasn’t as bewildered as usual nor was she glaring at Fu Yunhe, but rather smiling with a hint of mischief,
"Xiao He, do you know, with your appearance and the tone of your speech, for a moment, I could barely distinguish your gender."
Nian Shutong, proud of her jest, took the lead.
Behind her, Fu Yunhe, struck by ’thunder’? Gender ambiguous?
All he wanted was to be a man; why was it so difficult?
Fu Yunhe stepped forward to catch up with Nian Shutong, and the two walked a distance of twenty meters to a cellar.
Inside, seven women and two men were imprisoned.
Their attire was scant, but their features were fine, although the bruises on their bodies revealed their status.
They were left by the Star Thieves to satisfy their desires.
"The Star Thieves above are dead; you can leave on your own."
With those words and a wave of his hand, Nian Shutong broke the lock in the middle.
With a "clatter," it fell to the ground.
As for the rest, Nian Shutong was not a saint—he’d shown them the way; they could leave if they wished.
She continued to lead Fu Yunhe further inside, about thirty meters or so, to a fine iron door—or rather, something resembling a fine iron door—that stood before them without a single gap.
"Can you open it?"
Nian Shutong didn’t rashly attack it, afraid that damaging it would collapse the cellar.
Better ask first.
"I’ve learned a little bit."
Fu Yunhe modestly stepped forward and found a panel, from which a virtual screen appeared.
Nian Shutong just watched as Fu Yunhe opened his Light Computer, and with a few taps, symbols she couldn’t understand floated across the screen on the door.
"Clack..."
The door opened.
"Not bad, your skills are quite impressive."
"Thanks for the praise." Fu Yunhe felt genuinely useful for the first time, and quite pleased with himself.
Nian Shutong pushed open the door in front of her, leading Fu Yunhe inside.
Inside the door, there were about a dozen chests.
Nian Shutong went ahead, opening each one and began to divide the spoils.
"Xiao He, keep the Crystal Stones."
"Xiao He, keep the Laser Gun."
"Xiao He, take these Energy Boxes."
...
One by one, Nian Shutong wasn’t interested in anything in the chests; she let Fu Yunhe take them all.
As she packed up another box of items, Nian Shutong swept the area with her Divine Sense and spotted an inconspicuous Space Button in a corner.
Had it not been for her Divine Sense, she might not have noticed it.
"Let’s see what’s hidden here."
Nian Shutong walked toward the corner, and as Fu Yunhe watched curiously, she squatted down, picking up the Space Button from the ground.
"Well hidden."
Fu Yunhe, holding Dou Dou, stepped forward rapidly and asked, "What is it?"
Nian Shutong wiped off the spiritual power adhering to it and scanned it.
"Top-grade crystal stones, thirty-four in total, quite a fortune, probably meant for leveling up."
"Catch!"
Nian Shutong casually tossed them to Fu Yunhe, who hurriedly caught them, his expression questioning.
"It’s yours! What’s there to ask? Aren’t you leveling up?"
Nian Shutong’s matter-of-fact response left Fu Yunhe at a loss for words; he just gave a silly grin and stowed them away in his ring.
"Hey, this ring..."
"Once given, it wouldn’t be good to ask for it back!"
Fu Yunhe immediately cut off Nian Shutong’s words, nervously watching her, wondering if she would agree?
Fu Yunhe’s hand was already on his ring, slowly, bit by bit, taking it off.
All he wanted was a gift, or something to share with Nian Shutong.
Watching Fu Yunhe’s slow-motion, Nian Shutong wondered internally: Was this man always this childish?
"Fu Yunhe, who are you looking down on?"
"Do I look like someone who asks for gifts back? Joking."
Nian Shutong, holding Dou Dou’s hand, gave Fu Yunhe a cold back as she walked out of the cellar.
Behind her, Fu Yunhe grinned sheepishly, delighted that he and Nian Shutong now had matching rings.
A silly grin merged strangely onto Fu Yunhe’s face.
He quickly caught up with Nian Shutong ahead of him; together with Dou Dou, they left the cellar, just to find that there was still one woman outside.
At that moment, this woman, with her clothes half-off and facing sideways to the couple exiting, said,
"Please take me in, I have nowhere to go."
