5 views 07.03.2025

"Hmm?"

"This wine is quite enticing!"

Zhao Gu's eyes flickered with surprise.

He never expected that after wandering around this trashy place for so long without finding anything worthwhile, he would stumble upon such a fragrant wine here.

What an unexpected find!

He quickened his pace, heading swiftly in the direction of the wine's aroma.

On the wasteland.

The dog and the others had found a new wine jar and were already at work.

Without a second thought, Milk Agent picked up Yi Feng's wine jar and began pouring.

"Ah, careful, don't spill, not a single drop!"

Inside the jar, Lou Benwei's skull opened its jaws, shouting through the glass.

"If you waste even a drop of the master's wine, he'll annihilate us for sure. You know how stingy he is!"

"Okay, okay, got it."

Milk Agent and the others shivered and nodded quickly.

Under their careful handling, they began pouring the wine.

Meanwhile, in the air.

The uninvited guest, Zhao Gu, had arrived, his gaze fixed on the dog and the others on the wasteland.

"A dog, a centipede, a bear, and a soul... what a bizarre combination of three beasts and a soul."

Zhao Gu observed, his face filled with disdain.

"But this wine... it really smells amazing!"

"And it looks like it's been brewed with a human skull?"

"Interesting, I like it."

With that thought, Zhao Gu released a faint aura and raised his head arrogantly.

"Hey, you lot, bring that wine jar over here."

Zhao Gu commanded in a tone that brooked no argument.

He was certain that this strange group of beasts and a soul would obediently hand over the wine once they sensed his aura.

Milk Agent, who was in the middle of pouring, was startled by the shout and his hand trembled slightly.

"Where did this idiot come from?"

He muttered.

"Don't mind him, focus on pouring the wine."

The dog said casually, his eyes fixed on the flowing wine.

"Lower it a bit, it's too high, you'll spill it." The centipede chimed in.

From start to finish, none of them even glanced at Zhao Gu.

Zhao Gu was stunned.

Then, rage surged within him.

In this backwater, these lowly creatures not only failed to kneel before him but also dared to ignore him.

Unforgivable!

"You're asking for death!"

Zhao Gu waved his hand, and his energy surged, forming a green serpent that lunged forward with its bloody maw wide open.

The serpent, carrying a fierce gale, tore through the air, aiming to devour Milk Agent and the others.

Faced with this sudden attack.

Milk Agent and the dog instinctively dodged to the side.

But while they managed to avoid the attack, the wine they were pouring couldn't be stopped in time.

The gale from the attack caused the stream of wine to tilt, spilling outside the rim of the jar below.

A good half-ounce of wine splashed onto the ground!

Seeing this.

Milk Agent's eyes widened.

The dog shuddered.

Spirit King almost lost his soul.

The centipede lost one of its legs in fright.

"Huh?"

Zhao Gu, who had launched the attack, frowned.

Although it was just a casual strike, he hadn't expected these beasts to dodge it so easily.

This was completely unexpected.

But for some reason.

He sensed that the atmosphere had changed.

The air seemed to freeze.

The next moment.

The skull inside the wine jar opened its jaws and shouted.

"Damn it!"

"You're dead!"

"Half an ounce gone! If that stingy master finds out, we're done for!"

"Dog, slap him!"

Lou Benwei roared in fury.

Before Zhao Gu could react, a shadow loomed over him.

A massive dog paw descended from the sky.

"Smack!"

Zhao Gu had no time to resist and was slammed into the ground by the paw.

Lying on the ground, Zhao Gu spat blood, his face filled with disbelief.

How...

How is this possible?

In this backwater trashy place.

He was actually slapped to the ground by a dog?

Rage!

Fury.

A powerful aura erupted from his body, and the energy in his meridians surged.

The clouds in the sky churned.

The ground trembled slightly, and countless rocks and plants were crushed into dust.

In an instant.

The entire world seemed to change color under his influence.

In his current state of rage, no one could stand in his way.

"I'll make you lowly ants pay the price!"

His icy voice rang out as a powerful attack gathered in his hands.

But before he could act.

Milk Agent suddenly flicked his forehead with a finger.

In that instant, Zhao Gu's invincible aura vanished.

He was sent flying, crashing to the ground, his head spinning, utterly bewildered.

Before he could recover, a massive butt descended from the sky, landing squarely on him.

The impact nearly crushed his internal organs.

A huge bear paw then lifted him and tossed him into the air.

Milk Agent's bulky body performed a backflip, kicking him straight into the ground.

Dazed and confused, Zhao Gu was yanked out of the ground by the centipede, which then proceeded to slap him with its hundreds of legs, leaving him barely recognizable.

Meanwhile, Spirit King launched a mental assault on him.

After half an hour of this brutal treatment, Zhao Gu lay on the ground, his eyes glazed over, foaming at the mouth, muttering weakly...

"Mom... I want to go home..."

Days passed.

On the beach of Shadow Island, Lou Benwei and the dog sat lazily, watching the sunset.

At their feet were five wooden buckets.

Zhao Gu, now with a swollen face and dark circles under his eyes, knelt on the ground, scrubbing their feet.

"Are you useless? It's been two days, and you still haven't finished scrubbing my feet!"

"Worthless!"

The Nightwind Centipede kicked Zhao Gu away.

"Waaah..."

Zhao Gu wept silently, cursing in his heart.

Sir...

No, it's not that I'm slow...

It's just that your feet... there's always one more after I finish one, waaah...

But he dared not complain and could only crawl back to continue scrubbing.

The dog glanced at Lou Benwei, who was silently wearing sunglasses, and thought to himself how cool he looked before speaking leisurely.

"My brother said you have to pay for that half-ounce of wine!"

"Of course, we're reasonable people. We won't ask for much. Just give us something of equal value to that half-ounce, and we'll let you go."

"I'll pay! I'll pay!"

Zhao Gu nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, finally seeing a glimmer of hope.

It's just half an ounce of wine, right?

With his status, his family had countless treasures. Any one of them would be more than enough to cover the cost of half an ounce of wine, right?
