Fame and Thousands of Taels of Silver!

“Okay… okay! I’ll let them know right away!”

Wang Wu’s body trembled as his face flushed with excitement. He nodded repeatedly in agreement.

Wang Wu immediately went down the mountain to report the situation to Zhou Yun.

“This Ape Demon… really did it?” Zhou Yun couldn’t help but be moved when he learned about what happened on the mountain.

Originally, Zhou Yun had agreed to Qin Heilang’s conditions of not sending troops to the Black Wolf Bastion for three years. He was worried that he might not succeed in forcefully attacking the Black Wolf Bastion and would even suffer huge losses.

Now that Su Jie has killed the leader of the Black Wolf Bastion, the remaining bandits surrendered one after another, not daring to resist.

Under such circumstances, as long as Heiye City sent troops, they would be able to easily take down the Black Wolf Bastion without wasting a single soldier!

“Immediately send someone with my edict to deploy troops to the Black Wolf Bastion!” Zhou Yun did not hesitate and immediately sent people back to Heiye City to deploy troops.

“Jie’er… he killed Qin Heilang? He broke through the Black Wolf Bastion alone?”

When the pale Su Wu learned of this, he was undoubtedly shocked and excited.

Previously, Su Wu had already determined that the Ape Demon wearing the ape mask in the team was his biological son, Su Jie. He had also learned about Su Jie’s deeds from Zhou Yun and the others!

He also knew that he was the reason why Su Jie suddenly flew into a rage and headed to the Black Wolf Bastion alone!

Although he was worried at that time, Su Wu could not stop him.

Now that he found out that Su Jie had killed Qin Heilang and taken down the Black Wolf Bastion alone, Su Wu was undoubtedly extremely shocked.

“I cared too little about Jie’er. His martial arts talent far exceeds my expectations!”

Su Wu smiled bitterly.

When Su Wu taught Su Jie martial arts, he had observed Su Jie’s aptitude and determined that his martial arts aptitude was very ordinary. Even if he was willing to train hard, his achievements would be limited.

However, in just a short period of time, Su Jie has already reached this level at the age of 15. It made Su Wu feel like he was dreaming!

Su Wu and the others temporarily left.

The next afternoon, Heiye City’s army arrived and captured all the defenseless Black Wolf Bastion bandits before escorting them back to Heiye City for trial.

Su Jie did not forget the treasures of the Black Wolf Bastion. He was extremely lacking in cultivation resources.

As the largest bandit force in the vicinity, the Black Wolf Bastion would definitely have a lot of wealth!

However, what surprised Su Jie was that when he arrived at the warehouse of the Black Wolf Bastion, there was not as much gold and silver as he had imagined.

“Master Ape Demon, the total value of the property found is about 12000 taels of silver.”

In the warehouse of the Black Wolf Bastion, a soldier reported to Su Jie respectfully.

“Only 12000 taels of silver?”

Su Jie frowned.

12,000 taels of silver was not a small sum but given the size of the Black Wolf Bastion, this amount of money was a little too little!

The soldier seemed to know what Su Jie was thinking. He added respectfully: “According to the interrogation of the people from the Black Wolf Bastion, it’s said that every once in a while, Qin Heilang will transport away the gold, silver, and treasures he has accumulated. It seems that he was offering them to someone.”

“Offerings?”

Su Jie froze, frowning darkly.

Previously, Qin Heilang said that if he was given another three years, he would take the initiative to disband the Black Wolf Bastion.

Now, it seemed that there was someone else backing him!

This Black Wolf Bastion was just a money-making machine for the people behind Qin Heilang.

Apart from the salaries seized from the other mountain bandits, most of the gold, silver, and treasures that were plundered were regularly offered to the forces behind Qin Heilang!

“The power behind Qin Heilang is not a simple one… if it was to be able to make Qin Heilang work for him so willingly. Is this the reason for the Divine Constable Bureau’s investigation of the Black Wolf Bastion?”

Su Jie could not help but make many connections.

The Black Wolf Bastion was a money-making machine for a larger faction! The Divine Constable Bureau was investigating the Black Wolf Bastion probably because they wanted to investigate this faction! That was why they sent Su Wu and the others!

No matter what, he could ask Su Wu when he returned.

All 12,000 taels of silver belonged to Su Jie for he had taken down the Black Wolf Bastion alone!

“Magistrate Zhou, now that Heiye City no longer needs to suppress bandits, let’s end our agreement here.”

Two days later, in Heiye City, Su Jie saw Zhou Yun and said that to him.

The largest bandit den near Heiye City, Black Wolf Bastion, has been wiped out. If the news spread, it would be enough to make any bandit feel fear and not dare to cause trouble around Heiye City.

Zhou Yun’s suppression of the bandits was completed.

Su Jie also had further plans so he took the initiative to end his employment.

Zhou Yun said sincerely and gratefully: “Brother Ape Demon, I’ll always remember your help. If there’s anything, you can come to me. I won’t refuse if I can help!”

“Alright, Magistrate Zhou. I’ll see you again.”

Su Jie nodded slightly and left without leaving behind any unfinished business, disappearing from Zhou Yun’s sight.

Zhou Yun looked at Su Jie’s back as he left. He understood that they might not see each other for a long time. In his opinion, Su Jie would become a powerful martial artist whose name would become a household name in the future!

After dealing with the troublesome matters, Su Jie was finally able to return to Qingshui Town with ease and see Su Wu.

Two or three days ago, Su Wu had already returned to the Su Residence in Qingshui Town to recuperate.

After two to three days of recuperation, Su Wu’s complexion improved a lot. After all, he was a martial artist and his body was strong, far stronger than ordinary people.

However, no matter how strong his recovery ability was, Su Wu completely lost his right arm.

“Father, your hand…” Su Jie saw Su Wu’s empty sleeve and felt very uncomfortable.

“It’s fine… This blow is not enough to make me accept fate!” Su Wu laughed. He did not show any decadence in front of Su Jie and acted like he did not care.

Su Jie knew that Su Wu was working extremely hard to climb up but for a martial artist, losing an arm was undoubtedly a fatal blow!

Su Wu changed the topic and said: “Jie’er, you’ve been practicing martial arts diligently since you were young. I originally thought that your martial arts aptitude was very ordinary. I didn’t expect… you to surpass me so quickly.”

Su Jie nodded slightly. His [Soul Imprint] talent was unique. Although his martial arts aptitude was indeed ordinary, he could still walk faster and further on this path than others!

Su Jie felt terrible that Su Wu had lost an arm but he secretly swore: “There are Qi cultivators in this world on top of all kinds of magical spiritual objects that can extend a person’s lifespan. There are definitely enough treasures that can allow a person to regrow a limb. It might be possible for Father to recover his arm in the future.”

There were treasures in this world that could regrow limbs! Su Jie also believed that he also had the ability to obtain such treasures in the future!

Apart from that, Su Jie asked: “Dad, I heard that the wealth accumulated by the Black Wolf Bastion was handed over to someone else by Qin Heilang. Could it be that there are other forces behind the Black Wolf Bastion?”
