Evil of all ages

Chapter 238 Redemption
Huang Taichu patted his second brother on the shoulder, as if to say, "We don't go looking for trouble, but we're not afraid of trouble either. If we encounter someone unreasonable, we'll just go for it."

Huang Taihong was touched by his elder brother's support, but he also sensed his brother's weakness.

The eldest brother wants to display his divine power, but the prerequisite is to lure the enemy into the Heavenly Prison.

If the enemy doesn't enter the prison or come to Big Brother's territory, Big Brother can only watch helplessly.

"As for my sister-in-law, it was my elder brother's oversight."

"They thought no one would dare to mess with her, so they paid less attention to her."

"Who would have thought..."

Huang Taichu pretended to be full of guilt.

"Brother, it's not your fault. Everyone makes mistakes sometimes."

Huang Taihong didn't blame his elder brother for his negligence. He was just curious why his fiancée, who was desperate, didn't come to his elder brother for help but instead went to the ghost market to sell herself.

This question will probably only be answered when he meets his fiancée.

"Big brother, with your influence, could you get the Ghost Market to return my fiancée?"

Huang Taihong didn't know when he would be released.

Worried that his fiancée would suffer every extra day she stayed in the ghost market, he wanted his older brother to go to the ghost market and rescue her.

"I'll send someone to the ghost market to inquire right now, but don't get your hopes up too high."

"After all, not everyone in the capital will give your elder brother face."

“Especially in the Ghost Market, their Ghost Emperor’s influence is in no way inferior to your elder brother’s.”

As Huang Taichu spoke, he summoned a jailer and told him to go to the ghost market and inquire.

"Second brother..."

Just then, Wei Qianlan came running over carrying a cat the size of a lynx.

When Huang Taihong saw his sister, he was a little dazed and sighed at how fast time had passed.

In the blink of an eye, my little sister has grown up.

Before Huang Taihong could speak, Wei Qianlan threw the big cat aside and pounced into Huang Taihong's arms.

"Second Brother, why are you only coming back now?"

Wei Qianlan forced out two tears.

Although she was meeting this second brother for the first time and he was a complete stranger, she did not forget that she was replacing Huang Yu'er's life.

Huang Taihong looked at his younger sister hugging him tightly and couldn't help but pat her head. He didn't know how to answer her question for a moment.

“Soldiers, what soldier doesn’t miss home? But your second brother needs to protect the country. He can’t just go back whenever he wants.”

Huang Taichu pulled Wei Qianlan off Huang Taihong.

"Second brother, this time you're back, don't leave again, okay?"

Wei Qianlan looked at Huang Taihong with expectant eyes.

"This one……"

Huang Taihong didn't know how to answer. After dealing with his fiancée's matter, whether or not to leave was not up to him.

"Don't make things difficult for your second brother. Military orders are absolute; if he has to leave, he will."

Huang Taichu said.

"Big brother, you must have a way to keep second brother in the capital a little longer, right?"

Wei Qianlan asked.

Huang Taichu smiled but didn't say anything, but Wei Qianlan could tell at a glance that her older brother had a solution.

"Meow meow~"

Big White barked twice to make its presence known.

Wei Qianlan handed the big cat to Huang Taihong, saying it was their cat, named Black Emperor.

"Brother, my personal guards..."

Huang Taihong petted the cat a couple of times, then thought about how his personal guards were imprisoned in other prisons and he feared they might be treated badly.

Huang Taichu: "I will make the arrangements. You will soon be able to see them in the prison."

Huang Taihong never expected that his elder brother could transfer the personal guards imprisoned in other prisons to his own prison.

Huang Taichu: "Let's go home and meet your two sisters-in-law."

Huang Taihong: "Go home? Just like that, swagger out of the prison?"

Huang Taichu: "There is a secret passage. The prison is only seven or eight hundred meters away from our Huang residence. We will take the secret passage."

Hearing that there was a secret passage, Huang Taihong followed his elder brother into the Huang residence, where he met his two sisters-in-law. After eating the meal prepared by his sisters-in-law, the jailer who had gone to the ghost market to inquire returned.

They say the ghost market operates according to the rules and doesn't give anyone face.

They refused to return Huang Taihong's fiancée.

"The Ghost Emperor really doesn't give me any face, but since you're my brother, I'll go to the Ghost Market myself."

"The ghost market is a place where you can pay the price and it will grant your request. I don't believe there's any price I can't afford."

Huang Taichu was about to get up and go to the ghost market when Huang Taihong stopped him.

"Brother, she is my fiancée, and I will be the one to pay the price."

Huang Taihong said.

Huang Taichu was about to say something when Huang Taihong preemptively said that he was no longer a child and was already capable of handling things on his own.

Hearing his second brother say this, Huang Taichu naturally didn't say anything more.

Huang Taihong didn't know how long he would be imprisoned in the prison, but he couldn't wait any longer, so he asked his elder brother to find him a substitute to take his place in prison.

He disguised himself and had his elder brother send a jailer to take him to the ghost market, as he didn't know the way.

鬼市
Huang Taihong was also stunned when he entered the Ghost Market, because the inside and outside of the Ghost Market felt like two completely unfamiliar worlds to him.

Neither their clothing nor their buildings belong to the same era.

"My lord, this is the Treasure Pavilion. It contains not only all kinds of treasures, but also everything you need and desire.

The jailer stopped in front of the Treasure Pavilion and said.

Huang Taihong saw that the Treasure Pavilion was even more magnificent than a palace, and he felt as if an ordinary person had finally seen a corner of the heavenly palace.

He waved for the jailer to go back and stepped into the Treasure Pavilion.

"Sir, what would you like to do?"

As soon as Huang Taihong stepped inside, before he could even see what treasures were inside the spacious treasure pavilion, someone immediately came to greet him.

“I need to redeem someone, someone who sold themselves to the Ghost Market.”

Huang Taihong said.

"name?"

"I asked the host."

Han Yuqi

Huang Taihong replied.

"Please wait a moment, sir."

After the host finished speaking, he went to find the person in charge of the Treasure Pavilion.

After the host left, Huang Taihong did not wander around but stood still.

He glanced around casually and found many treasures on display that he did not recognize.

Seeing too much of it affected his mood, so he closed his eyes to rest and wait.

A short while later, the host returned.

"Sir, please follow me. I will take you to see our manager."

Huang Taihong nodded and followed.

Leading him to the innermost part, the host opened a golden door, gesturing for Huang Taihong to enter.

Huang Taihong did not hesitate and stepped inside.

The Golden House was glittering with gold, but Huang Taihong didn't care about these external things. He was watching the manager of the Hundred Treasures Pavilion, who was sipping tea.

"Please sit down."

Feng Zigui invited Huang Taihong to take a seat.

Huang Taihong knew that guests should follow their lead, and that redeeming people was not so easy, so he sat down at the tea table.

"Drink tea"

Feng Zigui poured a cup of tea and asked Huang Taihong to taste it.

Huang Taihong looked at the tea in front of him. He didn't know anything about good or bad tea, but since everyone else had poured it for him, he could only pick it up and pretend to taste it.

“Good tea”

After saying "Good tea," Huang Taihong put down his teacup and looked at Feng Zigui.

"I know the rules of the Ghost Market, but I don't know what price I need to pay to redeem the person I want?"
