Chapter 92 yielded tremendous results.
The battle came quickly. Although the women of the Succubus Sect were not weak, the weakest of them all had the cultivation level of the Entry Realm. Among them, there were seven or eight Bone Forging cultivators and three Tendon Refining cultivators. The shopkeeper, Meiniang, had even reached the Refining Dirty realm.
However, they were no match for Lu Yuan's elite troops.
The presence of crossbows outside, which seemed to be a constant threat, added immense pressure to the group.
The battle was basically over in less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
The shopkeeper, Meiniang, was punched so hard by Lu Yuan that she couldn't get up, and then his soldiers went up and arrested her.
As for Sun Qian, he also had two steel knives pressed against his neck and was completely unable to move.
In fact, Lu Yuan had long wanted to deal with him, but he hadn't found a suitable opportunity.
This time, it was like a godsend.
The imperial court has taken notice of the Succubus Sect, and he's actually walking with them—isn't that courting death?
With the overall situation settled, Lu Yuan surveyed the hall.
Turning to Zhou Xiong, who was covered in blood, he said, "Take men and search. Don't miss anything. The Succubus Sect must have a list of officials they associate with. We must find it."
Now that we've started, we should uproot them completely.
Especially the Sun family.
"Yes, sir!" Zhou Xiong responded, and a large number of city guards began searching the Hundred Flowers Courtyard.
"Da da!"
Just then, footsteps sounded outside the door.
It was Zhou Hongling. She walked in wearing a red body armor and carrying a sword at her waist. Standing at nearly 1.9 meters tall, and with a face that was in no way inferior to anyone else's, she instantly became the focus of attention.
Lu Yuan stepped forward and said, "General, the Succubus Sect's Icefield Fortress branch has been destroyed. Thirty-two people were killed and seventy-eight were captured alive. The search is currently underway. Centurion Wang Sen and Sun Qian were found to be colluding with the Succubus Sect. The former was killed on the spot, and the latter has been captured."
Zhou Hongling nodded expressionlessly, but she couldn't help but be surprised. She hadn't expected that Lu Yuan would make such a contribution so soon after returning to his post.
It should be noted that these sects have always been extremely troublesome, having connections with local powerful families and even some noble upper classes within the Dayong territory.
Moreover, they are quite strong, making them very difficult to capture.
Although Marquis Jiu Sai was eager to atone for his crimes, he was honestly not very confident and was already on the verge of tears. However, he didn't want to show it in front of his subordinates.
Now things are looking up; Lu Yuan has accomplished another great feat.
This adds another achievement to his record, and these will become the foundation for his future promotions.
Similar to this merit, if one has three such achievements, and one's cultivation level reaches a certain point, one can become the general of a town.
After glancing at the young man in front of him, a hint of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.
However, his brows furrowed slightly immediately. How did this guy know that the Succubus Sect members were hiding in the brothel and looking at Lu Yuan's attire?
A surge of anger rose within him again towards his younger brother.
"It's all Zhou Hao's fault for leading Lu Yuan astray. We must discipline him strictly when we get back."
Zhou Hongling thought to herself.
Then, he looked at Lu Yuan and said, "Well done. I'll take the Succubus Sect members with me first. The search is your responsibility. All evidence must be brought back."
"Thank you, General." Lu Yuan was overjoyed.
He knew that Zhou Hongling was handing him a lucrative position by doing this.
After all, everyone knows that the Succubus Sect is very good at accumulating wealth, so there must be a lot of valuables here.
At the same time, I sighed inwardly, thinking that this was the benefit of having someone to take care of you. Otherwise, you would be lucky if your superiors gave you a credit, let alone any money or valuables. You would only get a scrap of something as a reward.
After Zhou Hongling finished speaking, she ordered her men to escort the Succubus Sect members and Sun Qian away.
As for the guests who came to Baihuayuan, they were driven out after their identities were verified.
This matter was handled exceptionally well; not a single person from the Hundred Flowers Courtyard escaped.
Lu Yuan watched his subordinates searching for things from head to toe.
The corners of his mouth involuntarily turned up.
This time I've really struck it rich.
A moment later, Zhou He walked over and whispered, "We just found a total of 130,000 taels of silver, which should be the income from the recent period. We haven't had time to send it to headquarters yet. We also found a secret room underground. My men are all waiting outside, and no one has gone in."
Clearly, they were waiting for Lu Yuan to go in and inspect.
After nodding, he followed Zhou He to a secluded room on the first floor. A dark hole was visible under the table, big enough for one person to enter.
He glanced at the few subordinates guarding the door and said, "Wait here."
Then she looked at Zhou He and said, "Come down with me."
The other person was taken aback at first, then said, "Sir, this is against the rules, so I won't go down."
These kinds of enclosed rooms usually contain valuable items.
The chief general would go in to inspect the items and pack away the most valuable ones.
If he's in a good mood, he'll pick out a few items for his subordinates.
Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow: "I told you to get down, so just get down. What are you dawdling about?"
However, Zhou He still didn't move. He knew what Lu Yuan meant, but in the military, a superior is a superior, and it was better to establish these rules early on to avoid affecting the relationship between the two later.
Seeing his reaction, Lu Yuan could only shake his head and say, "Alright, I'll go in then."
After saying that, he walked inside.
At this moment, Zhou Xiong patted his nephew on the shoulder and said, "Not bad, you've grown up."
At the same time, he couldn't help but think, "No wonder this kid is so fast."
Aside from benefiting from Lu Yuan's influence, they do possess some abilities of their own.
Zhou He grinned at his uncle and said nothing more.
At this moment, Lu Yuan had already entered the underground vault.
As the wooden door was pushed open, what was inside made Lu Yuan's eyes light up.
This place contains a large amount of cultivation materials, which are probably used to train disciples.
Among them, the Body Tempering Pill, Bone Forging Pill, and Tendon Refining Pill were all displayed in boxes.
Moreover, there are also some rare and precious natural treasures.
After looking around, I didn't find many things that suited me.
Finally, a jar in the corner caught his eye.
"The true blood of the Great Wilderness Ferocious Dragon."
Such a thing is extremely hard to find; in Lu Yuan's current opinion, it is considered a top-tier body-refining treasure.
It seems the Succubus Sect uses this to refine special pills.
After all, it is common knowledge that dragons are inherently lewd.
This time, Lu Yuan really benefited. With this, he can probably advance his "Mixed Yuan Golden Bell Cover" technique today and deduce a more advanced technique.
As for the other pills, they could be given to Wu Han so that he could train people in the border regions.
If there were an elite force outside the Great Wall that obeyed his orders, it would be of great benefit to him.
The most important thing now is to hurry back and improve my cultivation.
Thinking of this, he picked up a jar of dragon blood and walked outside.
After entering the secret room, he dismissed everyone and whispered in Zhou He's ear, "Take out 30,000 taels of the captured silver and distribute it to the brothers below. You and Zhou Xiong will each receive 5,000 taels."
"Move everything out of the secret room and have your caravan transport it out of the city to a safe place."
"Okay." Zhou He nodded.
He counted out 40,000 taels of silver and kept it for himself, while sending the remaining 90,000 taels to Lu Yuan.
Then the latter went outside.
Now he can't wait to break through.
As for the rest, we'll talk about them later.
