Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

"Open the door, we have come to check your water meter. I promise we will not take a needle or a thread from you."

The two became rather serious.

"What"s going on?"

"Can it be General Zhuge? Why on earth has he come here?" the third Duke asked.

The woman exclaimed, "Tell the servant not to open the door!"

…

A servant opened the door.

Then everyone heard the heavy steps of the soldiers.

"Who are you? You cannot break into the Duke"s house like this! Get out!" the servant shouted.

"We are the army of justice. We think you have some connection to the traitors, so we have come to investigate. Peers, remember not to take away the needles and the threads... apart from that, you can take anything you want!"

"Yes!"

Then the whole house descended into chaos.

Objects were falling, servants and guards were shouting…

The third Duke and his wife were completely shocked. They had never thought that something like this would happen in broad daylight.

"How dare he! Does he really think that I am Mr Soft?" the third Duke spluttered furiously, readying himself to leave the room.

The woman stopped him and said, "Are you out of your mind? Are you going to go out there with this robe on?"

Hearing this, he quickly changed out of his robe.

Meanwhile, Xu Que had rushed into the main hall with his soldiers, trying to figure out where the library was. He wanted to find some magic inscriptions.

b.u.t.tface, however, had simply come here to play. He rushed into any room he liked and bit everything he saw.

Then inadvertently, he rushed towards the Duke"s bedroom. He suddenly stopped in front of the door.

"Wait, I can sense that this room is under the protection of some kind of array. There must be something good hiding in here."

Hearing this, the soldiers who had come with him said excitedly, "We should immediately report this to General Zhuge."

"Stop! It was I who discovered this!" b.u.t.tface shouted.

"What?!" The soldiers were stunned.

The soldiers were all very loyal to Xu Que, so they wanted the honour of reporting this to Xu Que.

Aren"t you the pet of the General Zhuge? Why you are even less loyal towards him than we are? Are you going to rebel against him?

Thinking of this, the soldiers all stared at b.u.t.tface. One soldier discreetly backed away and prepared himself to run away and report this to Xu Que.

Seeing this, b.u.t.tface explained, "What are you thinking?! I am not that sort of wolf! General Zhuge is so busy now, I think we should get the things out from inside the room first, then we will give them to him as a lovely surprise! What do you think?"

In fact, what he really wanted was to take the treasure for himself.

"Huh…" The soldiers nodded.

He does make sense. General Zhuge is so busy now, it isn"t right to ask him to come over right now.

"But… Little Black has gone to inform the General Zhuge," a soldier said.

b.u.t.tface then shouted, "Then we should break this array right now!"

He jumped up and kicked the door.

The soldiers were moved by him.

He is truly loyal to General Zhuge. He has even tried to break the array with his physical body!

But before his feet could touch the door, the door opened by itself.

Bang!

b.u.t.tface kicked the Duke right in his face.

Even if the Duke had been in Level 5 of the Infant Transformation Stage, the bones in his head would break if he received the kick head-on.

However, the Duke reacted quickly by using the strength of the array and his own magic inscriptions.

Still, the bone of his nose was broken and blood flew out. He promptly pa.s.sed out.

"Help!" the woman screamed from inside the room. "You b*stard! How dare you!" She freaked out, having never imagined that her husband would be kicked by a dog so hard that he would pa.s.s out.

"b.u.t.tface! What have you done this time?"

Xu Que had arrived.

Seeing the shock on the faces of b.u.t.tface and the soldiers, and the terrified woman who was screaming and covering her b.r.e.a.s.t.s with her hands, he felt very surprised.

"Christ! I never thought that you would be interested in this sort of woman."

"Shut up! I would never have s.e.x with a human!" b.u.t.tface said angrily.

"I never realised you liked old and ugly women!" Xu Que exclaimed.

The soldiers followed Xu Que and all looked at b.u.t.tface with admiration. He is really a hero! If he were not a hero, he would never f*ck with this sort of woman!

Butface shouted, "For G.o.d"s sake! I am not that sort of wolf, I can prove it!"

Then he jumped up again and kicked the woman.

The woman was at Level 1 of the Infant Transformation Stage. However, thanks to the remaining power of the array, most of b.u.t.tface"s strength was canceled out.

Nevertheless, she pa.s.sed out from the force of the kick and and fell onto the cupboard next to her.

Bang!

The cupboard broke, and out fell all kinds of jewelry as well as a blue imperial robe embroidered with golden threads.

Everyone at present was shocked by the sight of this robe.

There is an imperial robe in his room! Does he want to kill the Water Empress and be the next Emperor?

"General Zhuge…." The soldiers looked at Xu Que in surprise.

Earlier, when Xu Que had said that the Duke had some connections with traitors, they had not actually believed any of it. They had thought that he had just been making an excuse to loot the Duke"s house. But now they had seen the evidence with their own eyes, and completely fell for Xu Que"s ruse.

My G.o.d! The General Zhuge has been in this city for only one day, yet he has already uncovered the plans of the Duke to rebel… he really is good!

"General Zhuge, you are really powerful!" the soldiers shouted together.

Xu Que was confused.

I am powerful? Why? Anyway, I need to act tough now!

He quickly put his hands behind his back and looked up to the sky, saying, "I need to be modest…"
