Chapter 338: Blatant Favoritism, Burn Them All (Part 3)
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Even Shao Haicheng’s eldest son Shao Tianyi, the young man that was waving his fan yesterday, had lost most of his spirit.
Last night, he had wanted to find that lowborn to have some fun. However, he had just kicked open the door when someone rushed over to report that all the canned food in the factory had been stolen!
That lowborn also heard that. He still felt uncomfortable from the way he was being looked at.
When this matter was over, he would definitely let the lowborn have a taste of what it felt like to have a fate worse than death!
They were indeed father and son. Even when faced with such a precarious situation, they still had the energy of thinking about how to punish those who had crossed them.
Just when the entire Shao family was at their wits’ end, as they couldn’t find any clues and had to divert their attention to solve the trouble brought by others, a group of travel-worn people arrived at the checkpoint of Shichang City.
Knowing that only Metahumans could enter this place and there none of them ever left, some of them hesitated.
However, the leader didn’t care about it at all. “Fine.”
“You’re quite decisive!” Instantly, one of the guards put on a smile.
Each checkpoint had members from all five major factions. That was also something they had all agreed on. It’s up to their own to recruit all the Metahumans that come into the city.
Hearing this, they immediately prepared themselves. “Then show me your power.”
The leader was the first to show his ability. When he stopped, the entire place was dead silent.
“Elec… Electrokinesis…”
“M-Sir, what’s your name? Please, please register here… and the district you want to go to!”
At this time, they didn’t dare to persuade them to go to their territory like before. They were afraid that they would offend him if they got into a verbal scuffle.
He was the first electrokinetic in Shichang City!
The man held his chest, grabbed the pen, and wrote a word on the form.
Shi.
Although that didn’t meet the requirements, they didn’t dare to ask him to write more. They thought that this “Shi” was the “Shi” for “Shichang City”.
Then, he drew a tick behind “Jingkai District”.
At the same time, Tang Mingqi, Bai Yanhui, and He Qiang arrived outside the Shao family’s manor.
The Shao family knew how to enjoy themselves well. The three of them strolled along the way and finally found where Lao Yao was.
It was the most rundown location in the entire manor, even worse than the storeroom. Not only was it narrow and dark, but when they opened the door, a huge black metal cage greeted their eyes!
He Qiang was shocked and quickly went over to open the cage.
However, Tang Mingqi pulled him back and handed a T3 crystal core to Lao Yao, who only had a numb expression in the cage.
Lao Yao didn’t take it immediately. Instead, he smiled calmly. “While I believe that you’ll eventually come. But for some reason, 1 thought you won’t… Especially for someone like me.”
“Of course, we’ll come for you. It’s just the Shao family. It’s not like the obstacle is something impossible to overcome.”
Lao Yao’s expression slowly gained hope, as if he was inspired by something. In a daze, he finally said, “That’s true. It’s just the Shao family!”
Next, he grabbed Tang Mingqi’s hand and stood up. Then he took the crystal core and swallowed it. In the blink of an eye, that reassuring energy returned to his body!
The three of them stepped back in unison to make some space. They watched as Lao Yao summoned his flames and melted the lock of the cage with determination.
Although metal, wood, water, fire, and earth were based on the five classical elements, they were not the actual metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Therefore, the heat that his flame could get to was quite terrifying.
Immediately after, Lao Yao set the Shao family’s manor ablaze. During this time, he even found Cao Huibao, who was being ordered around as a servant.
She was quite smart. She didn’t suffer as much because of her shrewdness. In addition, she knew the dialect of Shichang City and also met a fellow villager from Chuanji County. Before she left, she even carried away the things in the Shao family’s kitchen with her.
When the group of five left the Shao family’s manor, the flames behind them burned fiercely and almost rushed into the air.
The people working in the manor seized the time to escape. Some of them were more cunning and stole a lot of things. In the chaos, no one remembered the old man and old woman who were paralyzed on the bed. They were Shao Haicheng’s parents, the Shao family’s two elders.
Lao Yao couldn’t help but turn back to look as if bidding farewell to the past.
“Grandpa, grandma… Thank you for taking care of me all these years.”
He could understand his father. As he was not his real son, his existence was a constant reminder of this shame.
He could also understand Shao Haicheng’s wife and children. He was a product of their husband and father’s disloyalty, respectively.
However, his grandparents, who had loved him the most, viewed him like trash after the revelation for the sake of their reputation and wealth. They allowed everyone to humiliate him and even harm him… They were the ones who haunt him in his dreams, making him drenched in sweat whenever he woke up.
When the Shao family’s entire manor was engulfed in a sea of fire, the Shao family members, who were busy in the industrial park, finally noticed the thick black smoke rising into the air.
“Isn’t that direction… No!”
