Chapter 346: Isn't This the Uncle I Haven't Seen for a Long Time!

~7 min read 1,355 words

Currently, Vivian was heading somewhere with a group of people. Although he didn't know where it was, it wasn't something he could participate in either.

After all, the Tower Witch was among that group of people, which meant it was highly likely a Tarot Manor gathering. In that case, it was even more impossible for him to go over and ask for a snub.

"Tsk tsk, Alliance Leader alas! Another incredible title. Say, Alliance Leader."

After Giovanni left, Gu Xiaobei looked at Vivian playfully from the side.

"Here we go again, here we go again. Can't we change this damn topic?"

Vivian, who was slightly teased again, wasn't angry at all, or rather, she had become immune after being teased so much.

"Let's go, there's still some distance to walk from here."

Lan Qingyou, who didn't want to waste time, didn't join the ranks of teasing Vivian this time. Right now, she only wanted to finish early and then return to the Shelter to have a good sleep.

She had been busy running around these past few days. Now that the auction was over, if she didn't take a good rest, it would be doing herself a disservice.

However, when Lan Qingyou once again led the crowd floating towards the factory district, a long-lost yet familiar voice came from behind.

"Qingyou! It really is Qingyou! I'm your uncle!"

Hmm?

With this shout, not only was Lan Qingyou stunned, the Manor members behind her were also stunned.

"Uncle?"

"Family?"

Everyone turned their heads somewhat confusedly to look at the person who rushed out from the corner next to the auction house.

Whoa—!

Where the hell did this savage come from!

When they saw clearly the attire and appearance of the person who came, everyone couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.

This man wore a felt hat whose original color had long become indiscernible. The brim drooped down greasily, and hanging on the edges were several strands of black flocculent material, unknown whether it was beast fur or human hair.

The top wrapped in tree bark rustled with his breathing. Between each piece of bark seeped suspicious dark brown stains, as if the entire garment was casually pieced together using tree bark soaked rotten in a swamp.

The monster pelt wrapped around his waist showed an unnatural blue-gray color, and trailing at the tail end was a section of dried claw bone, scraping out a harsh sound on the ground with his steps.

The most spine-chilling thing was that wooden stick in his hands—its surface was covered in spiral patterns, and three beast teeth were inlaid at the top. Every time it poked the ground, it would bring up a small cloud of dust carrying a putrid smell.

Web-like black blood vessels surfaced beneath his grayish-green skin.

When he suddenly raised his head, the muddy whites of his eyes reflected the firelight of the surrounding lanterns, looking exactly like a savage who had crawled out of some cave.

"Isn't this my good uncle who I haven't seen for a long time? How come you've mixed so poorly after not seeing each other for over a year? Where's that aunt of mine? Could she have despised your ragged look and run away?"

Although the other party's appearance had changed due to long-term malnutrition, Lan Qingyou still recognized her enemy, her uncle Liu Yongfu, at a glance.

Seeing the other party's appearance, she knew the other party was definitely not doing well, so she used a very frivolous tone to squeeze the other party.

And originally, seeing that it was Lan Qingyou's relative, everyone was preparing to say hello.

But upon hearing Lan Qingyou's tone, they knew there was something going on here.

Thus, the crowd silently retreated behind Lan Qingyou, waiting to watch the show.

"How can you talk like that, child? Your uncle is doing very well."

Liu Yongfu revealed his yellowing buckteeth, glaring at Lan Qingyou and speaking reproachfully.

To be honest, the reason she came here this time was to see if that 'Lan Qingyou' whose limelight was unmatched was the Lan Qingyou they knew.

Originally, she didn't want to come.

After all, the round-trip Teleportation fee wasn't cheap either.

But in the end, she couldn't outlast the pestering of her husband, mother-in-law, and children.

Because she didn't have a ticket, she couldn't enter the auction venue, so she had been squatting at the entrance the whole time, preparing to catch Lan Qingyou.

But she didn't expect to almost fall asleep during these few hours of waiting.

If it wasn't for nodding off and bumping her head, instantly waking her up and allowing her to see Lan Qingyou and the others who happened to be standing outside the auction house door, she might have missed this meeting.

Although she didn't know how the other party flew, nor did she know why the other party was alive and living so comfortably, those legs that never touched the ground allowed her to recognize this niece at a glance.

"So Uncle, what are you doing here?"

Lan Qingyou in the air didn't approach, merely purely looking down condescendingly at this savage before her.

"Nothing, nothing, just wanted to see that you're doing well."

Being asked, Liu Yongfu smiled awkwardly.

He himself also wasn't clear on why he had spoken just now, making a sound to stop Lan Qingyou who was originally already planning to leave.

After all, her mission coming here this time was just to see if it was that Little Sister Lan they knew.

As a result, calling out and stopping her, what was left could only be awkwardness.

He was still clear about how their family took away Lan Qingyou's medical fees and compensation money when they were at the hospital over a year ago.

As for how Lan Qingyou survived later, she wasn't clear.

It was just that right now, she was also lamenting in her heart that this guy was truly hard to kill.

"Is that so? Since you're fine, then I'm busy on my end and will be leaving first."

Saying that, Lan Qingyou turned around preparing to leave.

Although she also wanted to make a move and kill this savage, it still wasn't the time yet.

First was the location. This was her territory, and she had also just finished holding a large-scale event. Making a move here would be smashing her own signboard.

To be honest, regarding the concept of 'Equivalent Exchange', she didn't think this savage possessed such value to make her act here.

Secondly, she also needed this savage to bring back some news.

"Oh right, since Uncle is here, then conveniently help me bring a message to Aunt and Grandmother's side. Just say that the Chairman of the Huang Clan Group, Huang Xingming, and his son Huang Wei are already dead."

"I believe you should know them, this father and son pair. After all, you were the ones who went to negotiate the compensation money back then."

The Huang family father and son are dead!!!

Upon hearing this news, Liu Yongfu's chest felt like it was fiercely smashed by a sledgehammer, making breathing a little difficult.

Of course she was clear on who this father and son pair were.

Because she was also present when negotiating the compensation back then.

But now, learning of the two's deaths from Little Sister Lan's mouth, then...

"I killed them!"

Turning her head forty-five degrees, Lan Qingyou, after seeing the color on Liu Yongfu's face constantly changing, spoke to the other party very 'affectionately'. She even took out two Soul Crystals and shook them at the other party.

"You see, they're right here. Their souls."

"Ah!"

"Ah~~~~!!!"

Originally thinking that the other party merely died, figuring that the one dead wasn't herself anyway, and she just needed to be careful later, so although Liu Yongfu's heart feared Lan Qingyou making a move to kill her here, it at least hadn't reached the point of terror.

But when seeing the two Soul Crystals in Lan Qingyou's hand, this string completely snapped.

It instantly escalated from fear to terror.
