Chapter 767

"Hahaha, you don't need to overthink it. Meeting today is fate!"

The blind uncle shook his head and said, "As for who I am, it is not important. What is important is that we will meet again one day! I will tell you then! Telling you my identity now would benefit no one."

After finishing, the blind uncle patted Wang Lufei on the shoulder and left, disappearing around the street corner!

【Heaven, where did this big shot come from? Such powerful ability must belong to a practitioner of some ancient secret technique!】

【His aura of awe-inspiring righteousness must be very strong; otherwise, why could he solve so many enemies at once even while blind!】

【He is worthy of being a big shot; this level of coolness is just too high!】

【It's just that I don't know what his stance is. If he is an enemy of the Straw Hat Hall, their trip to Desa City will be very difficult again!】

Wang Lufei rubbed his head: "He really is a strange uncle."

Just when everyone's attention was focused on this blind uncle.

A thief had already stolen the valuables of the guests in this shop!

"Ah! My silver is gone!" a guest shouted in a panic, immediately attracting many onlookers!

"My jade bracelet is also gone!" another guest's face flushed red, and they hurriedly shouted.

"My token is also gone! Damn thief, actually taking advantage of this time to steal our things!"

Liu Suolong also hurriedly stood up to check his own things.

He discovered that his Autumn Water Sword had also been stolen.

"Bastard!" Liu Suolong cursed through gritted teeth, then asked the surrounding onlookers: "Did everyone see anyone approach?"

However, not a single person spoke.

The doll shop assistant explained: "If no one saw the thief, then it must have been a spirit monster that stole your things! Since it was done by a spirit monster, everyone should stop pursuing it!"

Upon hearing this, everyone tacitly agreed with the doll shop assistant's words.

In their understanding, bad things done by spirit monsters can all be forgiven.

"I say, what kind of joke are you playing! The thief slipped away right under your noses, and you're just going to let it go like this!"

Liu Suolong said, feeling annoyed and ashamed.

"Sigh, this is because you didn't watch your own things well; you can't blame others!" the assistant said, shaking his head.

"What do you mean!" Liu Suolong's eyebrows stood up, and he said angrily: "Do you believe that I will burn this place down!"

"Hmph!" the assistant snorted coldly, not showing any weakness.

"You..." Liu Suolong was just about to speak when he was pulled by the sleeve by Ma Shanzhi next to him: "Moss-head, look at the window; isn't that your Autumn Water Sword?"

By the window, the spirit monster that had just stolen a pile of things was planning to climb out the window and escape!

"Damn it! Stop right there!" Liu Suolong was furious and charged over.

That spirit monster ran away without even looking back!

"Scoundrel!" Liu Suolong also climbed through the window to chase after it.

"Tch! You road-blind idiot will probably get lost yourself before you catch up! Luffy! I'll go help him too!"

Ma Shanzhi also followed closely, climbing through the window and chasing after them!

Jinwei Men was also worried about this Autumn Water Sword; this was a national treasure of their Dongying, how could it be stolen by these little spirit monsters!

"Hey, there's a thief here!"

A shout came, startling the spirit monster that was climbing the wall to escape!

"Damn it, they actually chased after me!"

The spirit monster cursed inwardly and quickly sprinted through the streets of Desa City.

Wang Lufei was just about to go watch the excitement, but he was stopped by Zhuge Lanqi.

"Really, you guys are acting too recklessly! Fortunately, I followed this time; otherwise, wouldn't our mission objective fall through!"

Zhuge Lanqi muttered.

As Zhuge Lanqi, who was a few years older than Wang Lufei and the others, he had an obligation within the entire team to stop the reckless behavior of Wang Lufei and the others.

Wang Lufei couldn't help but show a bitter expression upon hearing his words.

"Alright! Then what are we two going to do next?"

Zhuge Lanqi waved his iron fist: "Naturally, it's to get some information out of this bunch of bastards!"

Zhuge Lanqi dragged a burly man out of a deep pit and walked toward a street corner.

Wang Lufei helplessly shrugged his shoulders and followed closely behind.

"Hey! You bastard, let me go quickly!" the burly man who had been dragged out struggled crazily.

Zhuge Lanqi grabbed the burly man by the neck and threw him onto the ground!

"Bastard, I am one of Tang Mingge's men; you actually dare to provoke Tang Mingge's men! You are dead!"

The burly man threatened viciously, then pulled out the short blade at his waist: "If you are sensible, it's not too late to kneel and beg for mercy now; otherwise, I guarantee I will make you die very painfully."

"Oh, so arrogant, then let me see what kind of skills you, one of Tang Mingge's men, actually have." Zhuge Lanqi loosened his joints, and the sound of cracking continued to ring out.

"Bastard!"

The burly man roared and lunged at Zhuge Lanqi!

Slap! The next moment, the burly man was fiercely thrown to the ground.

Zhuge Lanqi stepped on his chest, leaned down slightly, his eyes filled with killing intent and ferocity.

"I wasn't scared into growing up! Next, I am going to ask you a few questions; if you can answer my questions obediently, I can let you go; otherwise, your life will be over!" Zhuge Lanqi said coldly.

The burly man's face twisted, clearly intimidated by Zhuge Lanqi's aura.

But thinking of Tang Mingge's methods, he still stubbornly raised his head: "Ask away, but I will absolutely not tell you, you jerk!"

"Hehe."

A cold arc appeared at the corner of Zhuge Lanqi's mouth, and his right foot stomped down fiercely; the sound of bone cracking instantly spread throughout the entire street!

"Ah!"

With a miserable howl, the man cried and snot ran down his face: "I'll talk! I'll say everything! I'll tell you everything!"

"Wouldn't it have been over if you had cooperated earlier? What an idiot!"

Zhuge Lanqi snorted coldly, withdrew his foot, squatted down, and said: "You had better not play any tricks! First question, have you seen a Dongying person?"

"I saw one before; we were ordered by the family head to hunt down the Dongying people who came to our Desa City." The man endured the intense pain and answered with difficulty.

"Very good! Then tell me again, where is he now? You should have caught one, right!" Zhuge Lanqi continued to press.

"I don't know, how could a marginal character like me know those confidential messages!"

The burly man said with a mournful face; he felt as if he were about to be tortured to death by Zhuge Lanqi!

"Next question, where is the workshop for cultivating Gu insects?"

This was the final goal of the Straw Hat Hall this time!

"Huh, Gu insect cultivation workshop? What is that? I don't know!"

"Hmm?" Zhuge Lanqi frowned: "Luffy! It seems this guy is just a small fry; if we want to know more information, I'm afraid we'll have to find their leader!"

Wang Lufei nodded upon hearing this.

"Just let me go! I really don't know!" the burly man said in a panic.

"I can let you go, but you have to tell me where your leader is now! We have urgent business with him!"

Zhuge Lanqi said coldly; he no longer had the patience to continue wasting time.

"Today, our Desa City is holding the World's Number One Martial Arts Assembly; I'm afraid the high-level members of our family have all gone to help at the assembly venue!"

The burly man said tremblingly: "If you don't believe me, go to the venue over there and take a look, and you'll know!"

"Martial Arts Assembly? What the hell is this?"

Zhuge Lanqi muttered: "Is this Martial Arts Assembly very important to you?"

"That goes without saying! To attract more martial artists to come, our family head has prepared a mysterious grand gift!"

"Mysterious grand gift? Could that be the meat Tang Mingge promised to prepare for me!"

Wang Lufei thought of the previous long-distance sound transmission with Tang Mingge, and his eyes lit up!

"It's not meat!"

The burly man shook his head; is this guy really an idiot? Who would use meat as the first prize for a Martial Arts Assembly! It's really stupid to the extreme.

"Then what is it?"

"It is..."

The burly man hesitated for a moment, but still answered truthfully: "It is the ancient secret technique that died in the Forbidden City with Wang Aisi two years ago—the Flame Burning Heaven Technique!"

Upon hearing about Wang Aisi and the Flame Burning Heaven Technique.

Wang Lufei froze directly on the spot, and the painful memories of losing his brother two years ago flooded his mind.
