I Only Marry Widows-Chapter 94 - 91: Jade-faced Young Master

He grumbled and cursed while pinching the chin of the beauty, feeling that this woman was truly charming.

However, the knocking on the door continued relentlessly, and the Jade-faced Young Master was somewhat annoyed, "Which idiot is so insensitive, watch me peel your skin off."

He spoke as he angrily turned around and walked to the door, pushing it open.

The beauty on the bed, wiping her tears, only saw the body of the Jade-faced Young Master seemingly freeze for a moment, and then he seemed to walk out, the door closing with a click.

About a quarter of an hour later, the Jade-faced Young Master came in again, seeing her still sobbing, he angrily cursed, "What are you crying for, you’re really spoiling the fun. Keep this up, and I’ll peel your skin off."

Feeling annoyed as though his mood was being disturbed, he unhappily came over and pinched the beauty’s neck, "Call me husband, make me happy, otherwise..."

The beauty, though aggrieved, was more afraid. She lowered her head and choked out the word "husband."

"Haha, that’s better!"

Laughing, the Jade-faced Young Master untied the ropes from her body and asked with a smile, "What’s your name?"

The woman was a little puzzled; clearly, he had asked her before returning to the stronghold during the day, yet he asked again now. But with a second thought, perhaps this bandit leader didn’t even take her words to heart, which was not surprising.

She choked out, "I, I am Luo Zhenzhen..."

"Zhenzhen, that’s a good name." The Jade-faced Young Master turned and sat on the bed, "Since you’re my woman now, then help me with my clothes. Do it quickly, don’t make me angry."

Luo Zhenzhen was a young woman in her early twenties, her husband a small merchant, but he had already been killed by the bandits during the day.

She felt both hatred and fear in her heart, but she dared not refuse and obediently served the man, helping with his clothes and washing.

Unexpectedly, when they got to bed, the Jade-faced Young Master held her in his arms and just said, "I’m a little tired today, don’t cry anymore. I’ll treat you to abalone tomorrow morning."

Luo Zhenzhen dared not move at all, fearing that the man might give in to his animal instincts and force himself on her, so she lay there with her eyes half-closed, trembling in fear.

But after waiting for a long time, the man still didn’t make any move, seemingly having fallen asleep.

Until the middle of the night, Luo Zhenzhen, exhausted and sleepy, saw that the man was indeed asleep. She glanced at his face with some hatred and unknowingly fell asleep.

...

Yet at this moment, the Jade-faced Young Master suddenly opened his eyes, his pupils revealing a cold gleam. A point of golden light slowly faded at the center of his brow on the Spirit Platform, eventually forming a dim star.

How could this still be the Jade-faced Young Master? It was clearly Lu Chengfeng playing the role of the Crown Prince’s substitute. At the moment the Jade-faced Young Master exited the room, Lu Chengfeng had taken his life, disguised his appearance using a human skin mask, and assumed his identity.

Seeing Luo Zhenzhen already asleep, Lu Chengfeng gently pressed a finger to her forehead, rendering her unable to awaken for a while.

Then he got up from the bed, walked to the door, and listened intently. Confirming there was no one outside, he opened the door slightly and slipped out quietly.

Not long after, he dragged back a corpse, directly placing it in a large redwood chest he had already earmarked, which originally housed various treasures of gold and silver.

He took everything out, put the corpse in, and locked it again. As for those gold and silver treasures, he found a piece of rag, packed them all, and stuffed them under the bed.

Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.

Over the past month, the entire Three Immortals Stronghold had been on high alert and had not gone down the mountain to rob, being very cautious.

Only today did he find the opportunity to mix into the stronghold.

The Jade-faced Young Master excelled at the Small Circulation Capturing Hand and poison, carrying twelve steel needles soaked in lethal poison. Even those with Martial Arts skills cultivated to the Eighteenth Layer would risk being plotted against if careless.

Lu Chengfeng practiced the Tongyou Sword Seal, increasing the speed of digesting the gifts. Since the Martial Arts of the Jade-faced Young Master was originally mediocre, by now he had largely digested the martial technique part of the gift.

The Small Circulation Capturing Hand at its peak only reached the Seventeenth Layer, the Jade-faced Young Master had cultivated it to the Fifteenth Layer realm, plus his poison-making skills; with this, he managed to secure an advantageous spot in the outside schemes.

Lu Chengfeng returned to the bed to carefully digest the fragments of memory within the gift, familiarizing himself with the speech style and daily habits of the Jade-faced Young Master.

Before he knew it, it was already dawn.

When Luo Zhenzhen woke up, feeling a slight pain in her forehead, she recalled everything that happened yesterday, and tears could not help but fall again.

With her family gone, her husband and three children all dead, she was the only one left and captured to this stronghold. She dreaded to think how she might be further humiliated and abused by these bandits.

She couldn’t help but feel sorrowful, and her tears wouldn’t stop.

Hearing her crying, Lu Chengfeng pretended to be woken up by the noise, getting up irritably. Seeing her ceaseless sobbing, he directly slapped her across the face.

"If I see you cry again, I’ll let you know what it means to wish for death over life."

The slap left half of Luo Zhenzhen’s face swollen and her cries stopped abruptly.

"Serve me in dressing." Lu Chengfeng shouted, and Luo Zhenzhen, with reddened eyes, began to serve.

After busying herself and completing breakfast, Lu Chengfeng went out to gather two trusted underlings from yesterday’s mission.

"Come, let’s go to the inner stronghold to meet the Third Master and deliver this time’s haul."

"Yes, boss!" The two underlings responded, lifting the prepared chest filled with gold and silver treasures and following behind Lu Chengfeng.

Lu Chengfeng proceeded along the routes in the memory fragments, moving continuously from the outer stronghold to the inner one, where the mountain paths were very steep and winding, making it easy to get lost.

More importantly, the path was heavily guarded, with sentries both overt and covert everywhere. Even as the leader of the outer stronghold, he was questioned several times.

It took more than a two-hour time to pass through several layers of defense before entering the inner stronghold.

The entrance to the inner stronghold was inside a mountain cave, and one had to walk a long way through a dark tunnel, passing many forks, making it impossible to find directions if unfamiliar with the path.

After about a quarter of an hour more of walking, they emerged from another exit of the cave, reaching a very hidden mountain valley, the main base of the Three Immortals Mountain bandits.

Upon emerging from the cave, Lu Chengfeng saw two squads of strong patrol guards in Iron Armor, with steel sabers at their waists.

Not far away were even two arrow towers, with archers surveying the surroundings from above.

After several rounds of questioning and inspection, Lu Chengfeng finally met the Handsome Yama, the Third Master.

"Liu, how was this time’s harvest? Was there any trouble?" At this moment, the Handsome Yama was still on his couch, surrounded by three or four naked women, creating a very lascivious scene.

Lu Chengfeng put on the guise of a lustful demon, staring at the women’s bodies and couldn’t help but lick his lips, his throat moving slightly.

"Reporting to the Third Master, this time’s trip to Black Cloud Town to gather firewood encountered only poor folks, the harvest was average, it’s all here for the Third Master to handle." He signaled with his eyes, and the two henchmen behind him immediately opened the pre-prepared chest.

The Jade-faced Young Master only glanced briefly and noticed it’s more than he expected, a smile immediately appeared on his face, "Hahaha, Liu, you’re thoughtful. I heard you met a beautiful young thing on this trip?"

Lu Chengfeng bent his waist, grinning as he said, "Oh, not really, just a plain woman, nowhere near as beautiful as those ladies beside the Third Master."

"Haha, Liu, you’re up to no good, always eyeing the ladies by my side. Haven’t I given you two before, and still not satisfied?"

Lu Chengfeng just gave a sly smile, "Third Master, I’m just a man, can’t help myself sometimes."

"Well, which man isn’t a bit lustful, come on, join me for a drink inside the abode, share in the spoils we brought back."

"Yes, boss!" answered the two underlings, lifting the box of treasures they had already packed and followed after Lu Chengfeng.

Inside, Lu Chengfeng found himself in the company of several exquisitely beautiful women, all clinging around the laughing Handsome Yama on the couch.

Like many times before, Lu Chengfeng joined in the debauchery, resuming his performance as the sly, lecherous Jade-faced Young Master.

Being a shrewd man, the Jade-faced Young Master intentionally won the favor of the Handsome Yama, and gatherings for debauchery like today’s were frequent occurrences in the past.

Not realizing that the original Jade-faced Young Master had already been replaced, Handsome Yama laughed obliviously at Lu Chengfeng’s antics as he squeezed and caressed the women, thoroughly enjoying himself.
