Put Away Your Divine Techniques Now!-Chapter 1013 - 298: [The Scene]

"This thing is valuable, but... the Demon Race wouldn’t like these at all, would they?"

After pausing for a moment, Chen Yan got up and walked to the corner of the cabin.

There was a cabinet here, which had been split open, the cabinet door scattered on the ground, but the inside was empty.

Chen Yan shook his head with a smile: "If it were some gold and jade artifacts, even though the Demon Race wouldn’t use them, they could at least be explained as valuable items that could be taken back and sold for Jade Coins.

But... the clothes in this wardrobe, they’ve all been taken?"

Chen Yan shrugged, shaking his head: "The Demon Race’s physique is quite different from the Human Race. You’re from the Lark Race, so after transforming into human form, your physique is similar to the Human Race’s.

But many fierce Demon Race beings, like tigers, leopards, wolves, even after transforming, their bodies are astonishing.

Ordinary human clothes wouldn’t fit them.

After killing humans, these Demon Race beings have scavenged the clothes from the wardrobe, what for? To take them back and wear?

Can’t fit; did they cut them apart to use as rags?"

Yun Zhao was stunned, instinctively saying: "Clothes can also be sold for money..."

But as he said this, he himself found it illogical.

Though wealthy and noble families use quality materials for their clothes, making them exquisite—clothes are still clothes, how much can they be worth?

Selling them as second-hand clothes would be troublesome and wouldn’t fetch much money.

Selling them to second-hand clothing stores might even risk exposure.

In acts of murder and theft, time is critical, so naturally, one would choose valuable and precious items to take.

Taking decorations and furnishings from the room, like mirrors, is already somewhat strange.

But precious metals can at least be melted down for use or sale.

Why take clothes?

The Demon Race can’t wear them!

Only high-ranking Demon Race mingles more with the Human Race, like Yun Zhao, who likes to wear fine human clothes.

Ordinary Demon Race beings don’t favor the styles of human clothing—different aesthetics!

The two walked deeper into the cabin, searching around, then confirmed.

On this flying ship, everyone from the Guan Family was dead, with thirty-four corpses found.

The cargo hold on the ship was completely looted.

Chen Yan recalled that the items Fatty Guan had bid for at the auction were all missing.

The Flying Sword, which had already begun to manifest its Divine Sense, and the Heaven-Swallowing Gold-Gathering Beast resembling a giant bullfrog, were both gone.

The two emerged from the cabin, walking through a hole in the ship’s hull, landing on the forest ground.

Suddenly, Chen Yan’s heart stirred, and he grabbed Yun Zhao’s shoulder!

Upon arriving and seeing the scene, he immediately spread his Divine Sense around, enveloping the area.

Now, feeling a response in his heart, he grabbed Yun Zhao, leaping up onto a nearby big tree, hiding behind the canopy.

Before Yun Zhao could speak, Chen Yan covered his mouth, swiftly pressing a "Breath Concealing Talisman" onto his chest.

Chen Yan also slapped a Breath Concealing Talisman onto himself, gesturing to Yun Zhao to remain silent, then pointed below...

·

In the forest, two figures came walking one after another from afar.

The one in front was tall and robust, with a fierce-looking face, but his expression was panicked and fearful, footing chaotic, stumbling forward, frequently glancing back at the person behind, eyes full of pleading and flattery.

The one walking behind made Chen Yan’s eyebrows raise at a glance.

Another familiar face.

·

This person’s tall but thin body, eyes flickering with Evil Qi, walking steadily and heavy.

Especially on his back, he carried a knife!

White shark-skin sheath!

Chen Yan instantly recognized this person as "Boss Xue" whom he had seen at the market.

The ringleader of that group who set traps in the market to attract fat sheep and then plotted murder and theft.

Back then, disguise was used to escape, and a proud manly cultivator intervened with that shark-skin knife, revealing wealth, and in the end... became a target for that group.

That group secretly followed and after returning, the shark-skin treasured knife ended up in Boss Xue’s possession, as for the fat sheep... probably already slaughtered.

Remember that day at the market, Granny Yu had gently warned not to provoke these people but also cautioned Boss Xue not to mess with me.

·

The fierce man stumbled ahead, while behind, Boss Xue pushed hard on the man’s shoulder and back, urging him forward.

"Boss Xue, please spare me this time, I... I won’t dare anymore. It’s lard that clouded my mind, I... I got confused... Please, plead for me, I..."

Boss Xue remained cold and silent, only squinting his eyes.

Seeing Boss Xue silent, suddenly the fierce man knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly.

However, he wasn’t kowtowing to Boss Xue...

It was then that Chen Yan noticed another figure behind Boss Xue and the fierce man!

Despite clearly following behind, when Chen Yan first looked, he somehow instinctively ignored this third person.
