The King of Hell's Genius Pampered Wife Chapter 416
Chapter 416 Sheng De Hall Is Bankrupt
Hexi muttered to herself for a moment, then she suddenly took a crystal stone out of her bosom and waved it in front of the little manservant. “Tell me what happened in Sheng De Hall and this crystal stone is yours. If what you tell me is very detailed, I’ll give you an even larger reward.”
When the little manservant saw the crystal stone, his eyes brightened. At once, he lowered his voice and narrated what happened, from start to finish.
Originally, one month before, the matters regarding Sealed Dragon Domain’s Secret Territory hadn’t been settled for long, when suddenly, rumors spread across the capital about Gu Liufeng.
Some said that Sheng De Hall’s master, Gu Liufeng, was actually Murong family’s bas****, Murong Liufeng.
Some people also said that, in Sealed Dragon Domain’s Secret Territory, this Murong Liufeng was unfilial. Unexpectedly, he used crafty plots and machinations to murder Murong family’s elder and head (of the household).
Because of this information, people in Yan Jing city were criticizing Sheng De Hall.
Sheng De Hall, that was originally charitable and prestigious in the people’s eyes, suffered under people’s boycotting.
Adding onto this fact was that during this period of time, the medicinal ingredients and pills they could obtain became less and less. This also caused their business to slowly become bleaker and bleaker.
The little manservant sighed, “At that time, I was also Sheng De Hall’s manservant. The circumstances in the shop were so terrible, it spoiled shopkeeper Zhou. But, one didn’t expect that even worse things were yet to come.”
“A few days prior, there was suddenly a group of people who charged into Sheng De Hall, wanting to take away our master.”

“This group of people called themselves Murong family’s people, they came over to clean up the door. At first, the master also fought with this group of people. Sheng De Hall was smashed into pieces, nearly drawing the guards over.”
“But suddenly, the fighting stopped. Master didn’t retaliate, even a little bit, and was beat senseless by this group of people. Afterward, they even took master away.”
A sad expression appeared on the little manservant’s face. “Shopkeeper and master were both very good to us, if it was possible, we wouldn’t want to leave. But, master is gone, naturally, Sheng De Hall can’t continue running.”
“Actually, the massacre of Ji Sheng Hall, from one month previous, has yet to be forgotten. Didn’t expect that it started again now, infecting elsewhere. I also need to support my family, so…”
Hexi threw two crystal stones to the little manservant, sending him away.
Then, she stood in the doorway of Sheng De Hall, contemplating. Suddenly, she sensed a faint breath on the second floor.
This breath was very hidden, if it weren’t for Hexi’s meticulous searching, she wouldn’t be able to find anything.
Hexi’s eyes concentrated and her figure suddenly flashed, jumping onto Sheng De Hall’s second floor.
The second floor’s sliding window seemed to have been smashed, half open in the air. As the wind was blowing over, a creaking and crunching sound was heard.
Just when Hexi jumped through the window, she felt an icy sword’s qi hitting her in the face.
This sword’s qi wasn’t very great, but it was filled with the intent of ending in mutual destruction. Furthermore, the might wasn’t small, it scared Hexi a bit.
Fortunately, the Purple Abyss Vine in her hands reacted quickly. Immediately, it flew out, blocking this strike.
Naturally, the Purple Abyss Vine was very angry that Hexi was being attacked. Screaming, it wanted to go and tear the person, attacking Hexi, into pieces and suck the person clean.

But, Hexi’s left hand merely beckoned and pulled the Purple Abyss Vine back. Her eyes were attentively staring at the person hidden in a secret place, saying, “Zhou Yan’an, come out!”
From the darkness, a faintly shivering body slowly walked out. His hand still held onto the flying sword, his eyes were red as he stared at Hexi. With a fighting attitude he said, “Young Master has already been taken away by you guys, what are you guys coming to do! Where is Young Master?! What did you do to him?”
Translator Note looks like the no-fighting period some of us wished for is not fated to be 🙁

Dreams or Another World - Not a Zero (Update 09/19/21)
(Updated 09/19/21) Hello and welcome. If you made it this far and the book title sounds interesting, I'm hoping you'll read a few chapters. Here's a sample from chapter 1 of "Dreams or Another World - Not a Zero."Slowly starting to wake up, I become aware. It's like coming out of a fog.Head hurts.Body hurts.There's a conversation in the room. This isn't my bed. Someone is touching my arm. I crack my eyes to look. She doesn't notice. Is she praying for me? Her hands do feel good…do feel... Slipping back unconscious, my eyes slowly close. I didn't notice the soft green glow under Jenn’s hands.*******************"It does look like he saved them or at least stalled them long enough for us to get there." says the man dressed more like a park ranger than an officer of the law. "I did think he was part of it at first" he continues "but the evidence shows he wasn't there and they were certainly fighting on that back road where we found them""I don't care who he is." says a woman as she enters the room. "He saved and protected my Jenn. I will make sure there's not a mark or a scar on him before he leaves". As she continues the few steps over to the men speaking, even though dressed simply in common clothes, there is no doubt the race of elves is in her heritage. The grace and lines of her form. The elegance and lightness of her step. She glances at her daughter, still watching over the young man in the bed. "Do we know who he is yet?" she asks no one in particular."Not yet dear" a man in a white coat responds. A handsome middle-aged man. Fit, but not that of a fighter or ranger. "I asked Talon to bring another identification stone with him. I was hoping ours was just broke, but it's reading the same.""What do you think is wrong?" Talon asks."I'm thinking we just have to wait until he recovers. I have heard of cases where the stone didn't work. Powerful spells can hide or wipe a person clean. I doubt he's a spy or a criminal. Spells like that are just too high level if, they're used at all. My best guess is, there is just some disconnect with him being unconscious. When he wakes, we can ask him or use the stone again then."I find myself waking up in a hospital bed. The attending Doctor finds it odd that he cannot identify my class. An Officer says I’m a Hero for saving a girl from being kidnapped, but he’s asking too many questions for my liking. I know an accusing tone when I hear it. I don’t remember any of it and I need to find my way home.Author’s notes. Original work. First draft and update of chapters 1-16. Inspired by various fantasy games and books. Written with a focus on character development and interaction. Combat, progression, leveling, classes, but no numbers or stats. I’ll try to keep the language clean, PG-13, no smut. I’m in the US, writing in English. Almost fifty chapters are completed as I pen this introduction. I intend to complete this story or at least bring it to a proper ending. I have a destination in mind. I find as I write, doors and ideas open, while others close and are discarded. The tentative release schedule will be once a week. I'm new to creating. My apologies now while I learn. I have not settled on a book cover or artwork, still looking for something that fits. Registered & Protected #20VjeKDv2U6nynW6
