Chapter 281: How to Handle It

"Sect Master!" Over a dozen Men in Black looked at the youth before them with worshipful eyes and spoke with utmost respect.

Qin Ming nodded.

Among these Martial Artists, except for two who were youths from the Huayu Sect, the others were all recruited from elsewhere.

After all, the Huayu Sect still had too few Martial Artists; to truly accomplish anything, this small number of Martial Artists was far from enough.

Of course, for the sake of secrecy, most of the recruited Martial Artists were not qualified to meet Qin Ming; only those who passed the tests and were approved could be considered Outer Sect Disciples of the Huayu Sect.

To enter the Inner Sect, they still needed to pass through layers of trials.

"You did well this time; I am very satisfied."

Hearing Qin Ming's affirmation, everyone broke into smiles.

"Alright, you may all return! Treat this incident as if it never happened!"

Qin Ming waved his hand and said.

"Then how should we handle these treasures?" a Martial Artist asked.

Qin Ming glanced at the miscellaneous treasures scattered on the ground and said indifferently, "Do not bring these things out for the time being to avoid being discovered by the Qu Family. Once this period has passed, you can handle them as you see fit."

"Yes." The Martial Artists departed.

Fifteen minutes after the Qu Family shop was robbed, the Qu Family Head arrived at the scene.

"Where are the thieves?" the Qu Family Head asked in a low voice, looking at the corpses strewn across the ground.

The Martial Artists stepped forward and said, "Family Head, they… they have already left."

"Left?" the Qu Family Head said angrily, "What am I paying you for? You couldn't even keep them here. How many of them were there?"

A Martial Artist said cautiously, "Thirteen people, all dressed in black."

"Thirteen Martial Artists." Upon hearing this, the Qu Family Head became even more Life Qi, "There were over forty of you, yet you couldn't even stop them."

And what about 'Sha Long'? Tell him to come see me."

"Sha Long is dead."

"Dead?" The Qu Family Head was shocked. "Sha Long was at the ninth level of the Great Martial Master realm. How could he be killed? Could it be that there was a Martial Ancestor Expert among the intruders?"

Has that Zhang Family Head become so shameless as to take action personally?"

"No." A Martial Artist shook his head and said, "It wasn't a Martial Ancestor; they should also be experts at the Grand Martial Master Realm, but their sword techniques were incredibly formidable."

"Killing Martial Artists of the same level in one-on-one combat… this team of Men in Black is truly powerful. No wonder you couldn't deal with them." The Qu Family Head nodded thoughtfully.

At the same time, he felt a faint sense of worry in his heart.

He suspected that this team of Martial Artists was trained by the Zhang Family.

The Zhang Family had been established in Chenyang City for over three hundred years, much longer than his Qu Family. No one knew what secret weapons the Zhang Family might possess.

The Men in Black this time were very likely secretly trained by the Zhang Family; otherwise, it wouldn't be such a coincidence that outsiders came to rob them just as the two families were in conflict.

No matter how he thought about it, the Qu Family Head felt it was the Zhang Family's doing.

By the next morning, the entire Chenyang City knew about the robbery that night. This robbery caused an even greater sensation than the previous one at the Ziyun Auction House.

These thieves could be said to be lawless, committing crimes two days in a row. Moreover, the locations they robbed were not just any random places; they were the wealthiest spots in all of Chenyang City.

Furthermore, it was the Qu Family, which was guarded by a Martial Ancestor.

Either this group of thieves truly didn't fear death, or they simply didn't care about the Qu Family Head at all.

At the same time, people were also secretly guessing that this was most likely the work of the Zhang Family.
