Chapter 231 Emptying the Blood Rain Sect

Chapter 231 Cleaning Out the Blood Rain Sect

If Blood Flower were a man, countless women would fall for him.

At that moment, Blood Flower lifted the brocade quilt and stood up from the bed.

Ji Yuntang was surprised to find that this beauty when standing was actually much taller than herself.

Though Ji Yuntang was petite, she was still about 1.7 meters tall, which was why she didn't look too out of place in men's clothing.

But Blood Flower was around 1.85 meters tall—a full head taller than Ji Yuntang. Her face and height didn't match at all.

Ji Yuntang had a complicated look on her face. Before she could speak, Blood Flower approached her.

"Was it you farting outside that woke me up?"

When Blood Flower didn't speak, it was fine, but when she did, Ji Yuntang noticed her voice was androgynous—carrying both masculine vigor and feminine clarity. It was a bit jarring but not unpleasant.

Ji Yuntang immediately said, "It wasn't me."

She was willing to take the fall for other things, but not for farting.

Blood Flower obviously didn't believe her. "Was there anyone else outside the door just now besides you?"

"Yes, there was. He went to the latrine."

Blood Flower's stunning face displayed impatience. She looked at Ji Yuntang as if the latter were an idiot.

"Stop lying. You're new here, aren't you? You farted but won't admit it. That shows you have no sense of responsibility. I can't stand irresponsible, smelly men. Which tasteless idiot hired you?"

Ji Yuntang: "..."

This woman is so annoying. I really want to hit her.

Then Blood Flower said, "I'm a light sleeper and I hate the sound of farts. If I hear one, I'll definitely wake up. I'll give you the time it takes to burn half an incense stick to think of a way to put me back to sleep. If you can't, I'll kill you."

Ji Yuntang: "..."

Ji Yuntang: "!!!"

What the hell! I told her it wasn't me, and she still doesn't believe it!

Who can I reason with?

After thinking for a moment, Ji Yuntang asked, "Sect Leader, any method is fine as long as it puts you to sleep?"

Blood Flower lay back in her chair lazily. "That's right."

It was precisely because she couldn't sleep well that she ordered no one to stand guard too close to the door, to avoid disturbing her rest.

But just as she had fallen asleep, she was woken up by a fart.

This made Blood Flower very unhappy, and even her gaze toward Ji Yuntang was fierce.

"What's so hard about that!"

Seizing the moment, Ji Yuntang threw a handful of sleeping powder straight at Blood Flower's face.

Blood Flower was caught off guard. She stared wide-eyed at Ji Yuntang for a moment, then collapsed face-first to the ground with a thud.

Ji Yuntang jumped up and slapped her across the face.

She had been wanting to slap Blood Flower all along. In her eyes, this wretched woman had nothing but a pretty face—her mouth was poisonous and her temper was foul.

She wouldn't even let people fart. What a weirdo!

Ji Yuntang suddenly recalled the rumors about Blood Flower.

People claimed the Sect Leader of Blood Rain Sect was mysterious and highly skilled in martial arts. Anyone who saw her supposedly ended up dead, so no one knew what she really looked like, or even if she was male or female.

Who would have thought she was actually a woman, and Ji Yuntang had met her.

"Slap!" Ji Yuntang struck Blood Flower's androgynous face.

After the slap, five red fingerprints instantly appeared on Blood Flower's cheek.

Ji Yuntang fumed, "You're neither man nor woman, and you won't let people fart. What brand of plastic bag are you? So full of yourself? I'll beat you to death!"

The next moment, she slapped Blood Flower back and forth without mercy.

On one hand, Ji Yuntang found this person extremely irritating.

On the other hand, she was taking revenge for Luo Qingge and Xie Liuzheng.

She wouldn't kill her. If she did, she probably wouldn't get out of the Six Blind Mountains alive.

Besides, Ji Yuntang wanted to see who Emperor Jingyang would send to handle this matter.

If the court got involved, she wouldn't need to make enemies herself.

Today, Ji Yuntang's goal in coming to Blood Rain Sect was to clean out their treasury.

After slapping Blood Flower more than thirty times, Ji Yuntang helped her back into bed and carefully covered her with the blanket, making it look like she was asleep.

Then, she found a token and a bunch of keys on Blood Flower's person. She silently slipped out of the room.

Ji Yuntang found a patrol team, thrust the token at the black-clad leader's face, and said, "The Sect Leader ordered me to go to the treasury and fetch five thousand taels of silver for her."

She said nothing more and just looked at the leader arrogantly.

The leader checked the token; it seemed genuine. Warily, he asked, "What does the Sect Leader need five thousand taels for in the middle of the night?"

Ji Yuntang slapped the leader across the face.

"Since when does a low-level thug like you question the Sect Leader's decisions? Lead me there now."

The leader thought of Blood Flower's unpredictable and violent temper, shuddered, and led Ji Yuntang to the treasury.

When he saw Ji Yuntang pull a key ring from her pocket—keys Blood Flower always carried—he was even more convinced that the 'man' had been sent by the Sect Leader.

Ji Yuntang opened the door and said to the people behind her, "Go about your business—sleep or patrol. Don't bother with me. I'll lock the door once I'm done and return the keys to the Sect Leader."

Considering that Blood Rain Sect had been peaceful for the past two years and with so many people inside, not even a fly could get out, the leader took his men and left without another word.

Ji Yuntang stepped into the treasury without a hitch.

She took a flashlight from her storage space, and wherever the light shone, all she saw were chests packed with gold, silver, and jewels.

The gold was dazzling and brilliant.

There were a total of eighty chests.

Ji Yuntang was so overjoyed that she almost laughed out loud.

It seemed she had made the right call; the ten years' worth of wealth the Blood Rain Sect had amassed was no joke.

And now, all these things had luckily fallen right into her hands.

With a wave of her hand, the chests of jewels disappeared.

With another wave, the chests of banknotes also disappeared.

Wherever she passed, she left nothing behind—she even used a tool to pry the ten luminous pearls off the wall.

After emptying the storeroom, she turned and walked out, locking the door behind her.

There were many idle newcomers in the Blood Rain Sect, and Ji Yuntang easily blended into the end of a patrol team. She pulled a flask of wine from her pocket and quickly chummed up with them.

From their conversation, she learned that the next shift change would be in half an hour.

She looked up at the sky; in another half hour, it would be dawn, and she had to hurry down the mountain.
