Chapter 66 Taking Action to Reclaim the Ginseng

In the stillness of the night, a sharp scream pierced the air, carrying Zhang Hong's uncontrollable rage, echoing in the quiet hall.

Everyone's faces turned extremely ugly.

They didn't even catch a glimpse of the master thief before the ginseng was stolen. This was a great disgrace to them!
"Reporting to your master, no one suspicious has been found!"

At this moment, a guard from the Zhang family entered the hall, knelt on the ground, and said.

Zhang Hong didn't speak. After taking a few deep breaths, he glanced discreetly at a corner, then waved his hand, signaling the guards to leave.

"Master Zhang, we were careless this time!"

At this moment, someone spoke up, their words tinged with shame.

"It's not your fault, everyone. The Flying Thief is just too cunning!" Zhang Hong shook his head, not blaming anyone.

"Sigh!" Everyone sighed, and said nothing more.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Zhang Hong smiled slightly and said, "Hehe, this Flying Thief is nothing but a nameless fool."

Upon hearing these words, the previously depressed crowd looked up at Zhang Hong, their eyes filled with confusion.

"Mr. Zhang, what do you mean?"

Someone noticed something was wrong and asked in confusion.

Zhang Hong chuckled: "I owe everything to Li Mo tonight. If it weren't for him, my treasure might have really been stolen by the Flying Thief!"

Amidst the puzzled looks of the crowd, Zhang Hong revealed Li Mo's plan.

At Li Mo's suggestion, Zhang Hong deliberately put the ginseng in a treasure box and placed it in the main hall.

But in reality, the box didn't contain real ginseng; it was bait deliberately placed by Zhang Hong to attract the attention of the Flying Thief.

As expected, the master thief fell for the trick and stole the fake ginseng.

Unfortunately, the other party acted too quickly, and before anyone could react, they had already made their escape with the fake ginseng.

This left Zhang Hong somewhat helpless, but to his relief, although he failed to capture the Flying Thief, he managed to preserve the real ginseng.

Upon hearing this, Li Mo did not show a happy smile on his face. The Flying Thief's actions tonight still left him with lingering fear.

If the master thief later discovers that the ginseng was fake, will he resort to the same trick again to steal the ginseng?
At that time, he and the guards of the Zhang family alone would probably not be able to stop the other side.

Moreover, what worries him even more is what to do if the other party becomes enraged and takes their anger out on the Zhang family, and attacks the Zhang residence.
This time, he asked Zhang Hong to find more people so that they could capture the Flying Thief and eliminate any future troubles.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned, and the flying thief eventually escaped.

"I see, Master Zhang has truly found a fine son-in-law!"

Upon hearing this, the guilt on everyone's faces vanished, replaced by realization and admiration.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Hong's smile widened.

Just then, a sudden voice rang out: "Heh, you're celebrating too soon!"

"who?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Hong's heart tightened, and he exclaimed in surprise. In an instant, he saw a blur flash past his eyes.

"not good!"

Upon seeing the afterimage rushing towards the location where he had hidden the ginseng, Zhang Hong's expression suddenly changed, but then he was filled with deep doubt. How did he know where the ginseng was hidden?

He had no time to think about this problem right now. When he saw the man in black pick up the vase, Zhang Hong's face turned pale.

After obtaining the vase containing the ginseng, the man in black darted to the roof beam, quickly took a box from the vase, and then threw the vase into the middle.

With a loud bang, the vase shattered, shards scattering all over the ground, startling everyone into taking a step back.

He opened the box, glanced inside, and then chuckled softly, "Hahaha, the ginseng is indeed here!"

Then, the man in black looked at Zhang Hong, saw the man's ashen face, and sneered: "Old man, you still want to deceive me? Too bad, you're still too green."

"Grab him!" Zhang Hong said in a deep voice. Upon hearing this, everyone sprang into action, splitting into two groups: one group blocked the black-clad man's path, while the other group directly attacked him.

The man in black saw this and showed a contemptuous expression, completely unconcerned about the crowd's attack.

He was so fast that people couldn't keep up with his speed.

At that speed, it would be difficult to even see the opponent's movements, let alone catch them.

"Don't run!"

Seeing that the man in black was about to leave with the ginseng, Li Mo rushed over and unleashed his long-accumulated iron fist.

"Kid, I was thinking of letting you off the hook, but you just had to come at me. Now don't blame me!"

Seeing this, the man in black snorted coldly and lightly threw a punch to meet Li Mo's fist.

boom!
The sound of their fists clashing echoed like ripples throughout the entire hall.

Dengdengdeng.

"Brother, are you okay?"

Li Mo was no match for the man in black. He was punched and had to stagger backward, but was fortunately supported by Su Chen.

Upon hearing this, he shook his head without speaking. Suddenly, his expression froze, a blush rose to his cheeks, and blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.

"Hmph, you're lucky this time, but you won't be so fortunate next time!"

Seeing that Li Mo was only injured, the man in black sneered, completely unaware of Su Chen's gradually darkening expression.

Su Chen helped Li Mo up and was about to make a move when Li Mo stopped him. He shook his head and said, "Don't go. He's very strong. You're no match for him."

Su Chen shook his head, leaving behind the words: "Not necessarily!"

Then he charged toward the man in black. Because of Li Mo's earlier obstruction, the man in black was stopped by the others, but it didn't have much of an impact, as these people were no match for him.

"You guys keep having fun, I'm off!"

Soon, the man in black blasted everyone in front of him to the ground, clearing a path for them.

He glanced back at the crowd, brandished the treasure box in his hand, sneered at them, and revealed a smug expression.

This scene enraged Zhang Hong, his face turned ashen, and his fists clenched so tightly they cracked.

"hateful!"

Watching helplessly as the man in black took his treasure away was like a knife to his heart.

"Ha ha!"

Faced with Zhang Hong's anger, the man in black laughed loudly, then leaped up, his body springing into the air like a spring.

"what?"

However, at that moment, a tremendous force struck his calf.

He turned around and saw a handsome man with a serious expression grab one of his feet.

"court death!"

Seeing this, the man in black's face darkened, and he kicked out with his other foot. But before it could land on Su Chen, the man in black felt his body spinning uncontrollably.

In an instant, the world turned upside down in his eyes, and everything around him vanished like fleeting clouds. After spinning around a few times, his brain felt as if a lump of paste had formed.

"let go!"

After a brief moment of distraction, the man in black snapped back to reality, letting out a roar before kicking at Su Chen's body. The kick, imbued with a fierce aura, exploded with a series of whistling sounds.

boom! ! !
With lightning speed, Su Chen slammed the attacker against the wall as he attacked. With a loud crash, the man in black was left hanging on the wall like a mural.

Immediately, he leaped up, caught the box falling from mid-air, and landed steadily.
