On Fire

The reason Qin Ming told them to stop gathering intelligence was because he planned to start taking action right now.

The most important powers in Stone City were the Chen Family and the Shen Family; once he wiped out these two Families, what else would be worth paying attention to?

Even if Stone City still needed surveillance points, it wouldn't require these core Shadow members; just sending over a few peripheral members would suffice.

Qin Ming had absolutely no interest in the Low-Grade Spirit Stone mine in Stone City.

…

Night fell upon Stone City, and the entire city instantly grew quiet.

Although Stone City did not enforce a curfew, the city was not safe even during the day, so at night, even fewer people dared to walk the streets.

Of course, this did not include Qin Ming, who already possessed the strength of a Martial Emperor.

"So this must be the Chen Family residence." Qin Ming looked at the mansion before him, a hint of a smile flashing across his lips.

With a whoosh, Qin Ming flew inside.

Although there were many Martial Artists patrolling the entire Chen Family residence, they could not sense Qin Ming at all when he entered.

Qin Ming, with the strength of a Martial Emperor, entered the Chen Family residence under the cover of night; he was not someone these Martial Artists, who didn't even possess the strength of a Martial King, could detect.

After entering the Chen Family residence, Qin Ming quickly located the room of the Chen Family's youngest Young Miss, based on the intelligence he had gathered.

She was his target this time.

And the reason Qin Ming went to get that intelligence was precisely to find her exact room location.

As soon as he entered the room, the sleeping Chen Family Young Miss woke up, but before she could realize what was happening, Qin Ming had already appeared before her.

In an instant, before the Chen Family Young Miss could even make a sound, she passed out.

Carrying the Chen Family Young Miss, Qin Ming gently closed the door and headed toward the Drunken Immortal Restaurant.

Upon arriving at the Drunken Immortal Restaurant, the place was still brightly lit.

Of course, those who were not sleeping at this hour were mostly the hotel staff.

Relying on his memory, Qin Ming quickly found the room where Shen Ba was sleeping.

Although there were two guards protecting the entrance, their strength was only at the Martial Ancestor Realm, and with a flash, Qin Ming entered Shen Ba's room.

They couldn't even detect him.

In total Soundlessness, Qin Ming replaced the woman sleeping in bed with Shen Ba with the Chen Family's eldest Young Miss.

The Chen Family's eldest Young Miss was already a corpse by this time.

Qin Ming was not at all worried about her making any sound; as for the woman on the bed, the moment Qin Ming picked her up, she had already perished.

Perhaps this kind of death was the best ending for her.

After all, by following Shen Ba, women like her always met a very miserable end.

After finishing everything, Qin Ming did not hesitate and quickly left the room.

Standing on the roof of the Drunken Immortal Restaurant, Qin Ming looked coldly at the building and waved his hand, causing some liquid to appear.

He then took out the ignition tools he had prepared and gently threw them down.

With the help of the mysterious liquid, the entire Drunken Immortal Restaurant was soon engulfed in flames.

"Fire! Fire!" It didn't take long before someone saw the firelight in the night and started shouting loudly.

The patrolling soldiers nearby also instantly discovered the fire.

These soldiers were composed of men from both the Chen Family and the Shen Family, and they were responsible for the safety of Stone City.

Of course, they usually had nothing to do at night, so they mostly just sent a few soldiers to go through the motions.

But now that a fire had broken out at the Drunken Immortal Restaurant, if they let it spread, these soldiers would not be able to escape responsibility.

The soldiers, who had previously been neglecting their duties, instantly became serious, ran quickly to the Drunken Immortal Restaurant, and began to put out the fire.

"Help!" Cries for help pierced the night sky, and the entire Stone City erupted into chaos, with many Martial Artists helping to put out the fire at the Drunken Immortal Restaurant.

If the fire were allowed to spread, not only the Drunken Immortal Restaurant, but the entire Stone City could be burned to the ground.
