I don't look, I'm not curious.
Zhou Ziming never expected that Sun Tianming would be this kind of Sun Tianming.
However, Zhou Ziming glanced at the beggar next to Sun Tianming, feeling somewhat puzzled.
"And this is?"
Sun Tianming quickly explained his Second Brother's background.
Zhou Ziming nodded.
"Since he's your Second Brother, then he's one of our own brothers. Let's go inside and talk."
Afterwards, the group entered the courtyard house.
However, Sun Dahai was still in a state of confusion.
In his memory, this place seemed to be a town.
It was also the place where Wanle City sourced its goods.
How had the entire town turned into a luxurious courtyard house now?
Where were the Yao Race who were here before?
Could it be that they were all truly killed by this person?
If that were really the case, then this person was in big trouble.
After all, the existence of the Yao Race here was tacitly permitted by the three parties.
Moreover, this was the place where Wanle City stored its food supplies.
If you killed all these people...
...that would mean offending people from all three parties.
He probably wouldn't have any good days ahead.
But what he didn't know was...
...that Zhou Ziming didn't care about who he offended or didn't offend.
When Zhou Ziming did things, on one hand, he followed his own heart.
On the other hand, if you didn't provoke him, everyone would be at peace; but if you did, then he also knew a thing or two about fighting.
————
After entering the courtyard house, Sun Tianming was like a child who had been wronged, complaining to his parents.
He spoke about the evil deeds of Wanle City and the matter of the soul-capturing bell.
After listening, Zhou Ziming suddenly found it interesting.
Because in the Original Owner's memory, Wanle City did indeed exist.
But when the Original Owner first came to Demon Hunting Island, Wanle City had already been destroyed.
He had even heard that the person who destroyed Wanle City had obtained a great treasure from within it.
As for what it specifically was, the Original Owner didn't know.
But at that time, the Original Owner only had one feeling.
That was, it seemed to be an Opportunity that belonged to him.
Zhou Ziming hadn't expected this.
That Wanle City actually still existed.
Doesn't that mean that the great treasure is also still in Wanle City?
Zhou Ziming couldn't help but mutter to himself.
"It seems that because I killed the Black-Robed Man ahead of time, he wasn't able to set up his schemes in Wanle City!"
But Zhou Ziming still felt something was not quite right.
He looked at Sun Tianming.
Sun Tianming: "???"
Zhou Ziming sighed at this moment.
"Someone wants to use me as a tool!"
Sun Tianming: "???"
Zhou Ziming looked at Qian Dafu: "You explain it to him!"
Qian Dafu nodded.
"You were suddenly teleported out and just happened to be in Wanle City; someone intentionally let you see those things."
"Because that person knew that after seeing Wanle City, you would definitely take action, and in the end, you would definitely be unable to win because of the soul-capturing bell. As for whether you would die, that person probably calculated that you wouldn't, because he knew your Second Brother was right there!"
Sun Tianming was stunned.
Then, he also understood.
"In other words, the person behind this knew that if I couldn't win, I would seek help from Zhou Ziming!"
Qian Dafu nodded.
"Not only that, the person behind this knows even better that if Master Zhou takes action, Wanle City will certainly be destroyed!"
Sun Tianming's expression turned somewhat gloomy.
"This... makes me feel a bit stifled!"
Zhou Ziming, however, was in no hurry.
"No need to rush. We just need to sit tight here, and the person who wants to destroy Wanle City will naturally become restless!"
"If someone wants a favor, they should have the attitude of asking for one. If he wants something for nothing without giving any benefits, and even wants me to directly clash with the Sanctuary, how could that be possible!"
After hearing their words, Sun Dahai was also completely dazed.
But then, Sun Dahai's expression became quite interesting.
"Um, Master Zhou, right?"
Zhou Ziming looked at Sun Dahai with doubt.
Sun Dahai sighed.
"I think you might still go. That's also the reason I appeared here; the person behind this probably calculated even this!"
Zhou Ziming: "???"
Sun Dahai explained.
"Although Wanle City is a bit of a foul place, it must be said that it is also extremely wealthy!"
"Everyone who comes to Demon Hunting Island has thought about destroying Wanle City, not just to eliminate a scourge for the people, but more so for Wanle City's treasury!"
"After all, Wanle City is the largest den of vice on Demon Hunting Island. It has existed for who knows how many years, and its level of wealth is beyond imagination!"
"So, Wanle City itself is also an Opportunity; it's just an Opportunity that not many people can obtain!"
"Although Wanle City has the shadow of the Sanctuary behind it, this shadow cannot see the light of day. One could even say this is the doing of some big shot in the Sanctuary, and it can't be entirely blamed on the Sanctuary itself."
"If Wanle City is truly destroyed, there will likely be people within the Sanctuary who will protect us."
Zhou Ziming was speechless.
As for wealth, Zhou Ziming naturally needed it.
The Dao Gate needed to develop, and he himself needed to Cultivate.
Who would ever complain about having too much wealth?
But Zhou Ziming was very annoyed.
This feeling of being manipulated and calculated against made his Dao Heart feel blocked.
The wealth must be taken.
But it shouldn't be taken like this.
And Wanle City must also be slaughtered.
After all, it was a purgatory for humans.
But being used as a tool like this made Zhou Ziming unhappy.
After thinking for a bit, Zhou Ziming suddenly laughed.
"Let's go, we're going to Wanle City! Dao Gate Disciples, stay here and Cultivate in peace!"
Everyone nodded.
Then, the three of them, including Zhou Ziming, headed towards Wanle City... Somewhere in the Sanctuary.
A woman of exquisite beauty lay on her side with her knees bent on a couch. Her clothes draped over the edge of the couch, even trailing onto the floor, as she held a palace fan in her hand, gently fanning herself.
A small maidservant beside the woman then asked.
"Lord Director, are you truly not going to take a look?"
The maidservant asked while holding a bead in her hand.
The woman didn't even open her eyes, but a smile appeared on her face.
"I have never come into contact with a bead that Seals memories, and I have no memories that need to be sealed away."
"Since that's the case, there's something wrong with the appearance of this bead, and given that it even carries my aura, it's even more problematic."
"This is clearly a lure to make me look; someone really wants me to see it!"
"The more this is the case,That's why I absolutely cannot look at what's inside.!"
The maidservant looked at the woman and then asked with a smile, "Then, Lord Director, are you truly not even a little curious?"
The woman opened her eyes at this point.
"Curious? Not at all. For me, if I were to know the contents of this memory bead, I might do certain things because of it, and I would have no way of judging whether those actions are correct!"
"Instead of that, it's better not to look and just follow my current pace!"
"Don't be curious and look at the contents either. Destroy this thing, and don't let anyone else see it!"
The maidservant nodded.
"Yes, Lord Director!"
Having said that, the maidservant destroyed the memory bead right in front of the woman.
The woman was very satisfied.
"By the way, how is Zhou Ziming doing now?"
The maidservant closed her eyes slightly.
She opened them after a moment.
"Right now, he seems to be in Wanle City!"
The woman: "Hmm? What is he doing over there?"
The maidservant's expression became quite interesting.
"Rob... Robbery!"
The woman's mouth fell open, and then she burst out laughing.
