My treasure bowl connects the past and present; I've won everything on my journey into exile.

Lin Mo didn't use the black egg this time; she still had something to ask Liu Zhiyong.

However, when she attacked him, she first took all the ill-gotten gains plundered from Qingfeng Village, including all the grain.

Then he took all the oil out of the kitchen and sprinkled it in various corners of Qingfeng Village.

She planned to burn down Qingfeng Village when she left.

This sinful place should not exist.

Fearing the fire wasn't burning thoroughly enough, she even took some kerosene she'd taken from the palace and sprinkled it on the roof.

After doing all this, she prepared to walk towards the house where Liu Zhiyong lived.

But after taking only a few steps, he suddenly had a thought and looked at the house next to Liu Zhiyong's house.

It was an empty room.

She had gone in before and there was nothing inside.

Why leave an empty room?

Lin Mo always felt that she had overlooked something.

After thinking for a moment, she went back into the empty room.

In the dim light, she couldn't help but look around the empty house again.

It was a strange feeling; she had a sense that there was something good here.

Lin Mo came out of the space, looked around for a while, and found nothing wrong. Then Lin Mo shook her head and prepared to leave.

This is just an empty room, probably just vacated to put things in. I'm probably overthinking it.

But after taking a few steps, she stopped.

He kicked the ground hard several times, but the sound was off.

There is a secret passage here.

Lin Mo searched for a while before opening the door to the secret passage.

For safety, Lin Mo re-entered the space before walking down the steps of the secret passage.

The entrance is small, but the space inside gradually expands as you walk further in.

When she reached the bottom, Lin Mo was stunned.

iron ore.

This place was piled high with all kinds of mined iron ore.

She suddenly understood why Qingfeng Village, despite its numerous evil deeds, had never been eradicated.

The terrain is easy to defend but difficult to attack, which is one reason, but another, more important reason is that there are people behind them.

He has people protecting him.

The reason, of course, is these iron ore.

Illegal iron ore mining is a capital offense; Liu Zhiyong and his gang didn't have that kind of guts.

Therefore, they are nothing more than dogs kept by others.

They occupied the mountains and became bandits to hide the fact that there was an iron mine there.

Perhaps, the master behind him is the one who wants Xu Wuyan dead.

This place is very close to Bao'an City. If anyone can protect the people of Qingfeng Village, it would be none other than King Luo.

If that's the case, then the destruction of Qingfeng Village must not be related to her in any way.

If the Prince of Luo finds out that Qingfeng Village was destroyed by her, they will surely face annihilation.

Lin Mo's face was terribly gloomy.

Now she just hopes that Qingfeng Village has nothing to do with Prince Luo, otherwise she's in danger!

With a wave of her hand, she collected all the iron ore.

Lin Mo glanced at the now empty mine shaft and walked towards the ground expressionlessly.

This time, she went straight into the room where Liu Zhiyong was sleeping, and then walked toward Liu Zhiyong, who was fast asleep on the bed.

As she walked to the bedside, she raised the blood-stained broadsword in her hand.

Just then, Liu Zhiyong, realizing something was wrong, woke up from his dream and saw the blood-dripping knife pointed at him. Startled, he instinctively attacked.

But Lin Mo was faster than him, and without hesitation, she slashed down with her knife.

boom!

As the knife fell, the severed arm and blood flew together.

"Ahhh!"

Liu Zhiyong landed on the bed, his left hand covering the severed part of his right hand, and he let out a bloodcurdling scream.

Once the excruciating pain subsided, he shakily raised his head, his eyes fixed fiercely on Lin Mo:

"You bitch, how dare you cut off my hand! I'm going to kill you!"

He got out of bed and reached out with his blood-stained left hand to grab Lin Mo!

Lin Mo didn't even try to dodge; she directly threw a punch to meet the attack.

boom!

Her fist landed in the other person's palm.

A clicking sound.

Liu Zhiyong screamed again, staggering backward and falling to the ground in a sorry state.

Looking at his left hand, which he couldn't lift, Liu Zhiyong was in so much pain that he almost fainted.

Lin Mo glanced at him, walked out, took out a tinderbox, and threw it towards the door.

When fire comes into contact with oil, it bursts into flames.

Liu Zhiyong, who was inside the house, also realized that something was wrong.

Despite making such a commotion here, not a single brother came over, and I didn't hear a sound either.

Could it be that Qingfeng Village has been breached?

impossible!

He hadn't even received any news that anyone was going to attack Qingfeng Village!

The excruciating pain almost made him faint, but Liu Zhiyong forced himself to stay awake and struggled to his feet. He wanted to go out and see what was going on.

But as soon as he stood up, he saw that female demon return.

His face was deathly pale, and his eyes were fixed on the other person with a gloomy expression:

"who are you?

"My Qingfeng Village has no past grievances or recent feuds with you, so why do you want to destroy my Qingfeng Village?"

"Who is your master?" Lin Mo didn't answer his question, but instead asked other questions directly.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Lin Mo shook her head:

"Or let me put it another way: Who ordered you to kill members of the Xu family?"

Liu Zhiyong looked up sharply, "You're from the Xu family."

boom!

The next second, Lin Mo kicked him away.

Looking at Liu Zhiyong, who was lying on the ground groaning in pain, Lin Mo's face was icy cold:

"Just answer my questions, and stop with the rest of the nonsense."

Liu Zhiyong, my patience is limited. Don't challenge me, or I'll make you wish you were dead.

Liu Zhiyong, sprawled on the ground in a disheveled state, grinned maliciously.

"You bitch, since you know I have powerful backers, you still dare to treat me like this. Let me tell you, when he comes, you'll die a much worse death than I did."

"Stubborn."

Lin Mo rushed forward, stomped on his left arm, and crushed it with force, instantly producing a sound like a pig being slaughtered.

She looked coldly at Liu Zhiyong, who was sweating profusely from the pain and on the verge of fainting, and sneered:

"Do you think I don't know just because you didn't tell me?"

"Lord Luo, he's your master, isn't he?"

Liu Zhiyong's pupils contracted slightly.

Lin Mo sneered. It really is related to the Prince of Luo.

As he released his foot, he bent down and picked up the knife he had just thrown on the ground.

Seeing Lin Mo raise her knife to strike him, Liu Zhiyong looked terrified:

"What...what do you want to do?"

You can't kill me. If you kill me, he won't let you go.

Seeing that Lin Mo remained unmoved, and knowing that she really intended to kill him, Liu Zhiyong couldn't help but scream at the top of his lungs:

“Don’t kill me.

"I'll tell you everything as long as you don't kill me."

"Too late." Lin Mo said with a disdainful look.

"You're even worse than your brother; at least he was stubborn to the end."

The words fell, and the knife fell!

Phew!

As a spurt of blood gushed out, Liu Zhiyong's head rolled to the side.

boom!

Lin Mo threw the blood-stained knife on the ground and exhaled the breath she had been holding in.

She had no regrets about killing these people.

After all, more people died at their hands.

Not counting the prisons, just look at the mountains of bones piled up in the mines.

It's likely that the people they kidnapped to mine iron ore back then were all killed by them after the mine was finished, to prevent the news from leaking out.

This is called an eye for an eye.

"Young lady!"

Xu Pingan and the others rushed over, glanced at the room, and then bowed their heads respectfully.

Their faces were filled with excitement and admiration.

The young mistress has knocked out everyone in Qingfeng Village.

Lin Mo threw a burden at them:

"These are night clothes. Change into them and make sure no one recognizes you. Go and release the people trapped here. In half an hour, I will set this place on fire."

Seeing them nod, Lin Mo still said it again, not entirely convinced:

"Remember, you must not reveal your identities, especially those girls. You must not let them know who you are. There are people behind Qingfeng Village, and the waters run deep. We must not be careless."

After they left, Lin Mo put on her night clothes and began searching Liu Zhiyong's room.

If Liu Zhiyong were one of the Prince of Luo's men, they would certainly have corresponded or exchanged tokens of trust.

These will be the key to bringing down King Luo.

Even if we can't attack King Luo now, it doesn't mean we can't in the future.

Evidence, the most important thing is evidence.

After searching for a while, Lin Mo finally found a hidden compartment behind a painting.

A brocade box was hidden in the secret compartment.

Upon opening it, a thick stack of letters was indeed hidden inside.

Just as she was about to open the letters, she heard footsteps approaching.

Without any hesitation, Lin Mo took the items and entered the space.

The moment she entered the space, Wenruan rushed in as well.

Upon seeing Liu Zhiyong's severed head, she screamed in terror.

But after only one shout, he immediately covered his mouth.

He then viciously kicked Liu Zhiyong's corpse, saying, "Good riddance!"

The thought that he had ruined her virginity filled Wenru with anger.

She picked up a knife from the side and stabbed Liu Zhiyong's body several times before letting go, panting heavily.

After catching her breath, she began searching through Liu Zhiyong's room.

After finding nothing of value, Wenruan couldn't help but burst into a tirade:

"They have nothing of value, yet they live a life of luxury! Bah!"

She spat several times at Liu Zhiyong's corpse before preparing to leave.

But after taking a few steps, he immediately turned back to search for Liu Zhiyong's body.

When they found a heavy money bag on his body, a bright smile appeared on Wenruan's face, which was swollen like a pig's head.

"This trip was worthwhile!"

After she left, Lin Mo came out of the space.

This gentle woman is actually ruthless.

If Xu Xianyu doesn't keep his distance from her, he's likely to be harmed terribly.

Lin Mo picked up a candlestick from the side and threw it directly at the bed behind her.

As the fire raged, she strode outside!

Darkness can never completely obscure the light.

It should be dawn soon.
