The Marquis of Zhenbei was having a fierce battle in the room of a concubine.
There was a lot of movement, and it could be seen that the Marquis of Zhenbei was in his prime.
A few seconds later, the battle stopped, and Zhenbei Hou was lying on the bed dripping with sweat, but his thick eyebrows were slightly frowned, as if he was thinking about something.
"ah!!!"
A scream came from the concubine next to her.
The Marquis of Zhenbei couldn't help being startled, and was about to get up, but at this time, a touch of coldness hit his throat.
Taking a closer look, he saw a figure shrouded in darkness.
Blindfold?
Marquis Zhenbei was horrified to find that he could not see through his true face.
"Shut her up."
Chen Ning spoke calmly, his voice was naturally concealed, and his aura and body shape were all hidden by the effect of the barrier talisman.
Can hide breath and body shape,
The woman on the bed was crying and howling so noisily that Chen Ning planned to ask two questions quietly.
Zhenbeihou's expression remained unchanged, and he reached out and broke the concubine's neck.
"You...you are so cruel."
Chen Ning's brows jumped. He just wanted Zhenbei Hou to knock the woman unconscious, but this guy actually killed her directly. As expected of someone from the military, so cruel?
"What advice do you have?"
Zhenbeihou has sharp eyes and his high position all year round makes him quite tough even in this situation.
But he is not stupid. He just feels that the energy in his body can't move at all. He doesn't know what means the other party has used. If he fights hard, he will definitely be killed by this assassin.
"I just want to ask one question, where is the God of Thieves now?"
"Why are you looking for the God of Thieves?"
"It's none of your business, you just need to tell me."
"I have no idea."
Zhenbeihou replied expressionlessly.
But Chen Ning smiled and asked: "Are you really willing to die? Are you willing to listen to Yulou's property? Are you willing to have an army of 300,000 men under your command?"
This time, Zhenbei Hou's expression finally darkened, and the assassin in front of him was smarter than he thought.
One sentence struck a chord in his own weakness.
Here, Chen Ning pretended to make a move and reminded: "Master Hou, please stretch your neck a little and the knife will strike very quickly."
"Don't you just want to ask the God of Thieves? I'll tell you."
Marquis Zhenbei sighed helplessly, "Can you let me take a breath first? Anyway, my meridians have been sealed by some means you used."
When Chen Ning heard this, he released the blade from Zhenbeihou's neck.
"I'm offended."
"It doesn't matter."
The two of them acted as if nothing had happened at this time, especially Zhenbeihou, who not only did not have panic on his face, but was thinking seriously.
After a long while, he slowly said: "Half a year ago, the thief visited my Zhenbeihou Mansion and stole the most precious Nine-Turn Exquisite Pagoda in my house. However, the soldiers under my command were brave and formed a formation to trap him."
"Then what?"
Marquis Zhenbei continued: "Then he was thrown into the dungeon and imprisoned."
There was a hint of coldness in Zhenbeihou's eyes.
At this time, the system prompt also sounded.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the first phase of the mission [I have a pact with the God of Thieves]."
"Ding! The second phase of the mission begins!"
"Task requirement: Please rescue the Thief God trapped in the dungeon."
Chen Ning couldn't help but hold his forehead, and then said with a wry smile: "That Marquis, you must have looted the Linglong Pagoda from the Thieving God, right?"
"This is natural." Zhenbeihou replied.
"Then can you sell it to save face and let the person go?"
Chen Ning was a little embarrassed. After all, he had just kidnapped the Marquis of Zhenbei and asked the Marquis to release him.
It's a bit rude to say it out loud.
Sure enough, Zhenbeihou's expression changed and he said, "What do you think I am?"
The air pressure suddenly cooled, and even if he could not display his cultivation at this time, the domineering aura of those who had been in power for many years would still be quite stressful.
"Master Hou, of course I won't let you get off the stage."
Chen Ning smiled and said: "Since you have taken back the Nine-turn Exquisite Tower, I guess there is no loss. In addition, I will make a decision and let the God of Thieves pay you ten times the additional treasure. How about it?"
Hearing this, the Marquis of Zhenbei smiled strangely and said: "Every time the God of Thieves steals, he doesn't carry any money or treasure with him. I asked him for half a year, but he still didn't pry open his mouth and asked him to hand over the life treasure he had hidden.
Can you persuade him? Who are you?"
"You don't need to worry about this, Lord, I have my own solution."
Chen Ning has Su Ling'er's relationship, so it will be easy for him.
She is her biological granddaughter. If she pays some blood and some money to buy herself a free life, the God of Thieves will not be able to figure out this debt.
What's more, it's not his own blood or his own money. The God of Thieves has been famous for so many years, so he still has some wealth.
"Well, I'll give you some face."
Zhenbei Houcheng Mansion was quite deep, and he agreed with great courage at this time, not blaming Chen Ning for holding him hostage just now.
"To deceive others, you will come to the dungeon at midnight tomorrow night, and I will release the thief god myself."
"Don't wait until tomorrow night. Please invite me now, Lord Marquis."
Chen Ning smiled and retreated to the door, signaling for Zhenbei Hou to dress up.
"You are really smart."
Marquis Zhenbei smiled and complimented him, then put on his clothes silently, "Are you afraid that I will mobilize people to surround you tomorrow?"
"That's not what I meant. I trust Mr. Hou's character. It's just that I'm lazy and don't want to make another trip."
What Chen Ning said is not entirely false.
He was indeed lazy, but at the same time he was wary of the Marquis of Zhenbei, fearing long nights and many dreams.
Opening the door, Chen Ning was very casual. On the contrary, Zhenbei Hou looked at him in surprise and said, "Aren't you afraid of the guards in my house?"
But then he saw that the two guards who were originally standing at the door had dull eyes and stood like puppets.
"It's indeed a good trick. If I fall into your hands, I won't be unjust."
Marquis Zhenbei had a rare love for talent, and asked again: "Are you interested in doing something for me?"
"Haha, Lord Marquis is flattering me. I'm not good at military service, and I have no intention of becoming a general or a prime minister."
Chen Ning followed Zhenbei Hou, and the two of them walked step by step towards the dungeon.
The power of Zhenbeihou is also reflected at this level.
There is a special dungeon in the house. Doesn’t the royal family care about it?
Chen Ning couldn't help but think so.
Zhenbei Hou laughed loudly and said: "If you follow me, you will definitely build a lasting legacy. I guarantee that you will be inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people."
The Marquis of Zhenbei is still lobbying.
Chen Ning just smiled and shook his head.
No matter how bad he is, he is still the head of one of the most awesome sects in the world.
If you put aside your good power and work as a laborer here, wouldn’t you be able to eat enough to support yourself?
Not long after, the two came to the entrance of the dungeon.
"Master Hou!"
The defenders on guard saluted the Marquis of Zhenbei one after another.
The latter just waved his hand, and the defenders instantly made way.
Immediately, Chen Ning followed the figure of Zhenbei Hou and stepped into the dark dungeon.
