Sky Prison Office.

Zhou Yi pushed the door open and bowed.

“Uncle Niu, were you looking for me?”

Commandant Niu gestured for Zhou Yi to sit down. “Kid, your methods are too crude. Aren’t you afraid of being investigated by the Uniformed Guard?”

After hearing the prison guard’s report, Commandant Niu concluded that it was Zhou Yi who had used underhanded means to kill Assistant Minister Liu. This kind of thing was common in Sky Prison. Officials often sent their political enemies to Sky Prison. In order to prevent their political enemies from making a comeback, they would spend a sum of money to have them killed.

“Uncle Niu, what do you mean? I’m just doing an honest day’s work delivering food.”

Zhou Yi played dumb, being careful not to confirm or deny his involvement.

Assistant Minister Liu and Luo Hu’s corpses were cold. True, the dead could not testify, but that did not eliminate risk. Fengyang Kingdom was not above the law. Guilt and innocence were all determined by the higher-ups, and they could always find a way to force a confession.

Commandant Niu snorted. “No wonder Master Lei told me that you’re the most cunning guard in Sky Prison!”

“Master Lei’s words are too flattering, sir.”

Zhou Yi smiled and said, “Dojo Master Luo has a residence in the capital and has hidden thousands of taels of silver. The silver is all yours, but the martial arts manual goes to me, and the residence goes to the widow.”

“How particular!”

Commandant Niu praised, looking at Zhou Yi with increasing satisfaction.

He would rather give up his own interests to complete what he had promised Luo Hu. Commandant Niu couldn’t have imagined such an act. After all, it was common to bully widows.

“You see, Master Luo and I are indebted to each other.”

Zhou Yi had no desire to be in the limelight, and the nourishing medicine recipe was not the most important thing. What he really wanted was for Assistant Minister Liu to die.

Assistant Minister Liu was a true villain!

This kind of person had no bottom line. If he didn’t wipe him out now, there would be endless trouble. Supposing Liu made the new emperor happy and was reinstated to his position, Zhou Yi could only make a run for it.

Commandant Niu asked curiously, “I know you were obsessed with martial arts. What have you achieved?”

“I’ve been weak since I was young. Practicing martial arts is to strengthen my body.”

Zhou Yi picked up the teacup lid on the table and twisted it in his hand, instantly turning it into powder.

Commandant Niu had also gone to the martial arts school back in the day, but he couldn’t withstand the pain of Body Tempering. He hadn’t even mastered the Skin Membrane Technique, but he still knew how to differentiate between martial arts realms.

“Steel muscles and iron bones. A quiet little guy like you has achieved strength like this?”

“Ten years of ceaseless training, and endless amounts of nourishing medicine. Yet, my talent is still considered inferior.”

Zhou Yi was not being modest. According to Wei Chang, one could train their muscles and bones in seven to eight years in the martial arts world. However, those in the martial arts world did not have the time to cultivate their skills every day.

From a young age, Master Luo’s most beloved disciple bathed in medicinal soup and accumulated his inner qi. At the age of 16 or 17, he had already perfected his muscles and bones and actually stood a chance of becoming a Connate Master in the future.

Zhou Yi was not jealous. After all, that genius disciple had already died in the chaos.
