Chapter 14: A Daring House Robbing Scheme

Mino was kneeling on the edge of the bed with her butt upwards and her head under the bed.

Who knew what she was up to?

When Mu Liang returned to the wooden shed carrying two buckets of water, he found her like this.

He couldn't help but say, "What are you doing?"

"Ah!" Mino was startled.

"Thud!"

In the next second, the young girl's head hit the corner of the bed as she tried to get up in a hurry.

Mino wrinkled her pretty face and rubbed the back of her head as she crawled out of the bed.

The corners of Mu Liang's mouth rose as he asked, "Is everything okay?"

"You, you... What have you been doing?"

Mino glared at Mu Liang. She had a lot of of questions, but she didn't know where to start.

"Went to get some food and came back." Mu Liang said casually.

"Get some food??" Mino realized that there were two more wooden buckets on the ground.

She rolled her pretty eyes and said unhappily, "Are you kidding me? You must have emptied the camp leader's house."

"No, there are still a lot of things that haven't been moved over." Mu Liang plainly denied her accusation.

When he thought about the things in the camp leader's house, he had the urge to go back once again.

However, when Mu Liang had left, he had already seen many people heading towards the camp leader's house.

It also meant that Agu did not disappoint him.

"You really... dared to do it." Mino covered her face. She did not expect that her guess would come true.

She approached Mu Liang, and her cheeks were puffed out.

Mino's face was solemn as she admonished him, "Before you do these things, tell me in advance so that I can prepare myself."

She was still thinking about how to hide things and she was worried sick.

"The plan couldn't keep up with the changes. I only wanted to get some water back."

Mu Liang shrugged, looking helpless.

He couldn't help but kill the camp leader when he heard his deranged words.

"The camp leader will soon discover that something has been stolen."

Mino lowered her voice and asked, "What do you think about hiding these things on Little Xuanwu's back?"

"There's no need to hide them." Mu Liang waved his hand indifferently.

"Why not? The camp leader will send someone to search the house very soon."

Mino stomped her little feet in panic and warned him, "We can't hide so many things here."

"Don't worry about the camp leader. I've already killed him." Mu Liang said calmly.

"Eh eh eh??" Mino's blue eyes widened.

She looked at Mu Liang in disbelief and wanted to discern if he was joking.

"Really."

Mu Liang roughly explained the matter of the camp leader collusion with Bloodbeard to her.

"Good job! That inhumane bastard deserves to die."

Mino became furious upon hearing this.

Mu Liang smiled and quietly watched as her cheeks puffed out in anger, which was quite cute.

"Wha... What are you looking at?" A blush appeared on Mino's face.

"No, it's nothing."

Mu Liang shifted his gaze and gently said, "The people in the camp will move out tomorrow."

Mino's blue eyes lit up with anticipation as she asked, "Are we going to follow them?"

"No. We have to stay in the camp for two more days." Mu Liang shook his head.

"But that's too dangerous. Bloodbeard's people will attack at any time." Mino said with a little bitterness.

"There won't be any danger. We just have to wait for Bloodbeard's scouts to arrive."

The corners of Mu Liang's mouth curled up, revealing an inexplicable smile.

"Wait... What are you trying to do?" Mino had a bad feeling.

"I am going to rob Bloodbeard's house." Mu Liang said calmly.

"Eh?" Mino's blue eyes widened and a look of astonishment and shock appeared on her face.

The girl wondered if she had heard something wrong, and stammered cutely, "Mu Liang, you... Can you say it again?"

"You didn't hear wrong. I'm planning to go to the the bandit's lair to steal some good stuff for our use."

This thought had appeared in his mind when he heard that the camp leader was cooperating with Bloodbeard and asked the bandits to attack the camp.

He planned to lure the tiger away from the mountain. Then he would go rob the house and get some fierce beast crystal spars.

"Mu Liang, you're crazy." Mino's face turned pale as she grabbed his arm.

She anxiously advised, "That's a bandit group of over 500 bandits. One mistake and you'll lose your life."

"According to my plan, I won't have to face 500 people."

Mu Liang raised a finger, shook it, and asked in a warm voice: "Didn't we kill the bandit scouts during the daytime today?"

"Hmm." Mino nodded.

"No scouts returned today."

Mu Liang slowly talked about his plan: "Bloodbeard will definitely send new scouts tomorrow."

"The bandit's lair is more than a day away from us, and the scouts will not arrive until the day after tomorrow."

Mu Liang remembered the information he had obtained from the interrogation of bandit scouts during the day.

He continued speaking, "The day after tomorrow, we will disguise ourselves as the people in the camp who have just escaped."

"Mino, if you were Bloodbeard, would you send someone after them?"

There was a faint smile on Mu Liang's face.

"I guess so," Mino spoke after hesitating for a moment.

"Even you think that... When the bandit scouts see this situation, they will definitely rush back to report about it."

Mu Liang spread out his hands and said in a light tone, "Then Bloodbeard will feel that he has been fooled by the camp leader. At that time, he will bring his people to take revenge."

"It seems like it." Mino nodded in surprise.

"However, the people in the camp will have already left for three days by the time

Bloodbeard arrives. He won't be able to catch up even if he wanted to."

Mu Liang confidently said, "At that moment, there will not be many people in the base camp of the bandits. That is when we will go to steal the house."

The most important part of this plan was to use the time difference. Bloodbeard had to think that the people in the camp only left for a day or so.

The key point was to make the bandit scouts, who would come later, think that the people in the camp had just escaped.

"Are you sure?" Mino asked worriedly.

"Nothing would happen, even if I fail. It will just be a waste of two more days." Mu Liang shook his head without any concern.

This was just supposed to be an attempt.

If he succeeded, he wouldn't lack Fierce Beast crystals Spars anymore. He might even be able to evolve a tamed beast to level-4.
