Wuxia: The Super Slave Master

After saying this, Luo Chen nodded.

"Then how should I get there?"

"Your destination is in the golden glow; it's best to go through the sewers there!"

After Xiao Fan finished speaking, Luo Chen stood up and walked out the door. After going out, Luo Chen originally planned to walk into the rat path and walk out from there. After taking the shortcut, he finally arrived at the top, which was like a tomb.

Luo Chen pulled the ring, and the low ceiling above gradually opened.

After going outside, Luo Chen went directly to the Golden Garden. By the time he arrived near Gulie City, the sky was gradually brightening.

The sunlight shines on the lake, giving it a golden glow; no wonder it's called Golden Glow.

Luo Chen leaped into the short lake. Inside the Broken Axe Bar, Xiao Fan had already told Luo Chen that there was a tunnel below, and only by going through that tunnel could they get inside in the simplest way.

Fortunately, Luo Chen was able to breathe freely in the water, which allowed him to successfully enter the tunnel.

The surroundings were filled with a greasy smell, and in the darkness, there were occasional squeaking sounds.

A long sword quickly appeared in Luo Chen's hand. Looking at the sounds in the darkness around him, Luo Chen could clearly see many pairs of eyes around him, and those eyes were all bright red.

They were clearly rats. One rat came out, squeaking, clearly having been hungry for a long time. Suddenly, the rats rushed out and surrounded Luo Chen.

A rat pounced on Luo Chen, and without saying a word, it bit down on him.

It was clear that they intended to tear all the flesh off Luo Chen's body.

Even the rat probably didn't expect that Luo Chen's body was much harder than steel. The rat only took two bites before it ran out of strength, or rather, even if it had the strength, it wouldn't have been able to bite Luo Chen.

The brown rat that had been standing in front of Luo Chen was clearly the leader among them. At first, it didn't rush up, but seeing how easily Luo Chen had dealt with the little rat in its hand, a nameless anger suddenly surged up in its heart.

"Jiji!"

The rat leader's shout seemed to be giving the rats an order to attack.

The surrounding rats all rushed towards Luo Chen.

Luo Chen took a step back, and with his left hand, he sprayed a burst of flames onto the ground, instantly igniting the flames.

The fire raged fiercely, and because there was still a lot of oil left on the ground, it was instantly ignited by the falling dust and flames.

After the rats were burned, they scurried around on the ground. The lead rat quickly walked to Luo Chen's side.

It jumped up and bit into Luo Chen's throat.

However, Luo Chen's skin was much harder than diamond, so the rat leader couldn't bite even a tiny bit into Luo Chen's skin!

Luo Chen wasn't disgusted at all. He grabbed it in his palm and gently squeezed it.

The rat squeaked, and its internal organs sprayed out.

Reaching the end of the underground tunnel, there was a black door locked with a chain. Luo Chen walked to the lock and used the lock pick in his hand to slowly adjust the large padlock. The lock hole slid open with a click, and the door opened.

Chapter 252 Secret Deals

After the door opened, there were several corpses nearby.

Without uttering a word, Luo Chen walked straight inside. Before he even stepped out, he noticed a row of nails above his head. Even if the nails couldn't hurt him, walking straight past them would still make a sound, alerting the guards inside the golden light.

So Luo Chen lowered his head.

Not long after entering, there was a small house nearby. Luo Chen walked step by step along the wall to the door of the room.

Inside was the owner of this place, the so-called Alingus. This person had also entrusted the Thieves' Guild with a matter, but was unwilling to pay the remaining amount. According to the rules of the Thieves' Guild, they could take anything the Thieves' Guild wanted.

This time, Moser's task for Luo Chen was to retrieve the golden deed of land and return it to the Thieves' Guild.

Alingus seemed to be chanting something, waving his hand across the book, while his eyes were half-closed.

Luo Chen quietly entered the room and silently approached Alingus behind him. His hands moved swiftly, and he stole two keys from Alingus, one of which was the key to Alingus' safe.

The other key is the key to all the gates of the entire Golden Manor.

After Luo Chen got the key, he walked to the end of the stairs and saw two guards pacing back and forth at the bottom.

After Luo Chen left, she jumped to the ground without saying a word and quickly looked around, but there wasn't a single person in sight.

Seeing that there were no enemies, he walked step by step toward the front.

This was a basement. Dust settled against the walls, and two guards were warming themselves by a fireplace in front of them.

Luo Chen simply ignored them. As they talked, they kept looking towards the stairs. Luo Chen secretly came up behind them. A key was hanging in front of Luo Chen, and Luo Chen took the key down.

The two guards didn't even react.

There was a large safe nearby, and Luo Chen gently fiddled with it a few times.

Inside the safe was a stack of gold coins and a mortgage voucher for Golden Manor. Luo Chen took the voucher into his body and walked to the ground. He was immediately in the Golden Manor's breeding farm.

There were also many bees kept up there. It was with the help of these bees that Alings became one of the richest men in Gulie City. He also used the Thieves Guild to eliminate his biggest rival.

Unexpectedly, Luo Chen directly set the beehive in front of him on fire, and the flames roared to life.

As soon as the guards spotted him, they rushed toward Luo Chen. Taking advantage of everyone's attention being drawn to this place, Luo Chen went back into the house he had just been in, stepped onto the wall, and climbed onto the roof, grabbing the wall with both hands.

Groups of people ran outside.

Luo Chen easily dodged them all. After the third group had all left, Luo Chen jumped down, retraced his steps, and returned to the Thieves' Guild.

Brynchov emerged from the water tank: "We knew we hadn't misjudged you. Congratulations on your fall from grace!"

Luo Chen smiled calmly, appearing unfazed by the situation.

Luo Chen handed the document about the Golden Manor to Brinjov, who took the paper and began to read it. Suddenly, he became furious and started banging on the table in front of him.

"Damn bastard!"

Luo Chen asked Brinchov in confusion, "What exactly happened?"

"That damned bastard has already sold his manor! Perhaps he already knew we were planning our revenge."

After saying all this, Brynchov thought for a moment, turned his head, and took a step forward, looking at Luo Chen in front of him.

"Go and find Maven Blackthorn. There are some unintelligible characters on the things you brought back. She might be able to explain them to us!"

Luo Chen nodded and walked directly out the door. Ma Wen was the lord of Morningwind. She was strolling around the street, seemingly having made an agreement with the Thieves Guild long ago, which was why the Thieves Guild could live well in Morningwind.

"Hello, Ms. Marvin, it's an honor to meet you."

The woman in the black cheongsam turned her head. Apart from her dark skin, she looked almost identical to an ordinary person.

Hello, I don't remember knowing you?

Luo Chen waved his hand and said to Ma Wenyan in front of him, "I was summoned by Brynjov to inquire about the Golden Manor."

Marvin smiled and nodded: "I've heard about that. Well done. But what should you do? Perhaps you should go to the Mare's Inn in Whiterun and find someone named Matthews. He will tell you everything."

He's a cunning old fox, still making money, but he never reveals anything he knows.

.... ....... .......

After thanking him, Luo Chen returned to Whiterun without stopping. However, the locals were now looking worried. This was understandable, as the battle between the Stormcloaks and the Empire had reached a fever pitch.

Luo Chen walked to the middle of the passage, and several huge houses appeared in front of him. These were already considered quite nice houses.

Once inside the Mare Inn, a group of mercenaries looked in Luo Chen's direction, their eyes filled with longing.

Clearly, they wanted Luo Chen to take them all away from this awful place.

Unfortunately, Luo Chen ignored them and went to the front desk of the bar, where he placed a dozen or so gold coins on the bar table.

The bar owner burst into laughter upon seeing the gold coins.

"I wonder what this guest needs? Our rum is excellent!"

After saying that, Luo Chen turned his head: "I'm looking for someone?"

Upon hearing Luo Chen's question, the bar owner burst into laughter, as if he had been waiting for Luo Chen for a long time.

"Finding someone is certainly possible, given these things back then..."

Clearly, this meant that Luo Chen didn't have enough gold coins, so he took out another fifty or so and placed them directly on the table.

Chapter 253 Promoting the Next Generation

“Is this enough money?”

As Luo Chen spoke calmly, the bar owner smiled, looking smug, and then quickly stuffed the gold coins in front of him into his clothes.

"This is more than enough. What are you looking for, sir?"

Luo Chen smiled and said Matthews' name.

The bar owner chuckled easily, thinking to himself that fifty gold coins were really easy money. If there were still so many fools in the world, things would be much better.

Luo Chen turned his head directly to the person in front of him and said, "Tell me, where is he?"

The bar owner led Luo Chen into the kitchen.

Once inside, a person with very little color in their face raised their head.

"Who are you?" "020"

He looked completely bewildered. Luo Chen glanced at the bar owner, and the person in front of him immediately retreated.

Luo Chen immediately asked the person in front of him, "Are you Matthews?"

Matthews nodded, and Luo Chen immediately said to the person in front of him, "I was introduced by Marvin!"

After saying that, Matthews stood up, told Luo Chen to wait a moment, and then closed the door in front of him.

Matthews turned his head and said to Luo Chen in front of him, "Master has finally remembered me? Did she say when I could return to her side?"

Luo Chen shook his head: "But this time, I've come to see you about something special!"

Matthews seemed to have a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

Then he slowly said to Luo Chen, "What is it? Tell me. I will tell you everything I know."

Disappointment is only one aspect; the other is the endless waiting.

However, none of this had anything to do with Luo Chen. His goal was to obtain the information he wanted.

Luo Chen handed over the items from the golden manor. After seeing the writing on them, Matthews was taken aback at first, then thought for a moment and immediately said to Luo Chen, "I've seen these words before, but you have to do me a favor, and I'll tell you what you want to know later."

Luo Chen sneered, as if the only thing between him and them was this kind of useless exchange of interests, while everything else was put aside.

"Tell me, what do you need me to do for you?"

Since it's a transaction, Luo Chen doesn't need to lower himself.

“Besides working at this bar, I also work at the Honey Winery, which is run by the Empire. So, in this deal, I want to get the job as the owner of the Honey Winery. I believe you understand what I mean.”

After saying this, Luo Chen smiled calmly: "If it's just based on the contents of the letter, I can't help you..."

After Luo Chen said this, he was about to turn around and leave when Matthews immediately stood up, took a step forward, and grabbed Luo Chen's arm.

"Brother, don't do that! I have some top-quality rum here... no, a thousand gold coins as payment!"

Having said that, Luo Chen stopped in his tracks. In the events to come, there was one more thing he needed to control.

This is the gold coin. Don't be fooled by Luo Chen's extravagant spending; in reality, the Luo family army needs a very strong income every day.

Luo Chen turned his head, looked at Matthews in front of him, and said calmly.

"I don't need gold coins, what I need is the manor's loyalty!"

"Loyalty? I don't understand?"

Matthews couldn't fathom what Luo Chen's words truly meant.

Seeing that he still seemed to have some questions, Luo Chen explained, "It's very simple. From now on, we'll each take half of the brewery's revenue. I guarantee that as long as our Luo family army is still around, no one will dare to take your place!"

This sentence was a kind of guarantee. Matthews originally wanted to return to his lord's side, but Maven's continued neglect of him was something he could no longer tolerate.

After thinking carefully for a while, he stood up, walked over to Luo Chen, and knelt on the ground.

"To ensure you have the ability to save your life in the future, you'd better drink this stuff first!"

After speaking, Luo Chen handed a bottle to Matthews, who took it and examined it carefully.

However, thinking that Luo Chen would still need to serve him in the future, there was no need to harm him. So he closed his eyes and drank it down in one gulp.
