After rapidly dealing with Ymir, Yang Ling casually picked up the strange staff and tossed it into his Space Ring. Even though the staff looked incredibly eerie, it was obvious that it was a rare treasure. At the same time, he did not miss the loot on Ymir’s body, such as the Blood Elf Battle Boots and the Ring of Flames.

Looking at the massive corpse of the Nine-headed Snake Monster, Yang Ling clenched his teeth and absorbed the entire body into the Space Ring. A monster this terrifyingly large would most likely give him many valuable Blood Orbs. He might gain more from this single beast than if he were to hunt in the Terras Forest for months.

“D*mn it, burn this devil!”

“Drag his corpse and parade through the streets!”

The crowd only came to their senses after Yang Ling stored the massive body of the Nine-headed Snake Demon. Some of them suggested burning the zombie-like Ymir. Some were still indignant about the grievances they suffered under the Anca family and wanted to drag his corpse along the streets.

Seeing the agitated townspeople, then thinking about the magnificent castle of the Anca family, Yang Ling had a thought. He decided not to stop with defeating Ymir. He might as well eliminate the problem from its source. He said loudly, “Brave warriors, I’ve taken down Ymir, but his lackeys are still occupying the castle. What shall we do?”

“Invade their castle and kill all their lackeys!”

“Charge in and use their heads as a sacrifice to appease the vengeful souls of the dead!”

Under Yang Ling’s provocation, the people’s pent-up hatred for the Anca family erupted like a volcano. They were in high spirits. Ymir was dead, and with the powerful Yang Ling backing them up, the people wanted to bathe the Anca family castle in blood immediately.

“Hehe, smart! He knows how to incite public fury at such a young age!” Seeing Yang Ling wishing to eradicate the problem at its source, the black-robed elder once again nodded his head in admiration.

“Hmph, d*mn it, to think that he kept all of the spoils of war. He did not leave anything behind!” Maryse could not get over the high level magical equipment on Ymir’s body, especially the Snake Demon Blood Staff hailed by Dark Spellcasters as a Divine Weapon.

After a moment’s deliberation, the black-robed elder said slowly, “Maryse, he has many Magical Beasts and his background is unknown. You must not act recklessly, remember that! Perhaps it is not a bad thing that the Snake Demon Blood Staff is in his hands!”

After that chilling battle, the Snake Demon Blood Staff must have caught the attention of the Church. Given how many important eyes were undoubtedly watching these events, the black-robed elder did not want to invite trouble. After all, compared to the large numbers of Undead Divine Weapons sealed by the Holy Dragon Ayrpaciro, the Snake Demon Blood Staff was secondary.

“Yes, your disciple understands!” Seeing how seriously the black-robed elder took this matter, Maryse lied. She was secretly thinking about how she could get her hands on the legendary Snake Demon Blood Staff. If she could obtain that item, she believed that she could immediately advance to the level of a high level Great Spellcaster from a beginner Great Spellcaster. She might even achieve a breakthrough to become a beginner Magical Tutor.

As the black-robed elder’s disciple, coupled with the power of her family, Maryse had gotten everything she set her eyes on since she was young. She believed that even if she did not attack, she could definitely get Yang Ling to obediently hand her the Snake Demon Blood Staff. Before her charms, no man had been able to resist falling head over heels for her. Even the young Yang Ling would be no exception.

Maryse was secretly coming up with a plan. Yang Ling, on the other hand, was quickly strategizing the best way to invade the Anca family castle with the least amount of effort. After the necessary preparations, he led the large army and charged for the castle.

Surround the castle and strike at the heart!

The Anca family castle was surrounded by mountains and rivers. It was easy to defend and hard to invade. It was the most magnificent castle within a few thousand kilometers. Yang Ling understood that there would be heavy casualties if he attacked the castle head on. Hence, he came up with the idea of surrounding the castle.

Ymir had already fallen in battle, so the warriors in the castle were without a leader. This, coupled with Yang Ling’s numbers advantage and high morale, meant that the warriors in the castle would not be willing to battle. Their morale would be low. Yang Ling believed that by surrounding the castle from three directions and engaging in a ferocious offensive, a large number of their warriors would flee in fear from the last castle gate. They might even surrender without putting up a fight.

The Anca family castle was originally called Wissen Castle, and its land was about the size of a dozen golf courses. The walls of the castle were built using black, sturdy basalt, and the ground was tiled with marble. It was magnificent and opulent, and everyone within a few thousand kilometers knew about the castle. This was also how the town came to be named Wissen Town.

It was rumored that the Wissen Tower was an ancient castle left behind from long ago. Some said that this was one of the traveling palaces used by a king in the past. There were many carvings of troops and horses in random corners of the castle. Others said that this used to be the vacation home of a wealthy man whose assets could rival kingdoms. The servants would sometimes uncover exquisite art pieces.

There were also some who claimed that this was a gathering place for many Dark Spellcasters or Undead Wizards. Many people had heard the wails of dead spirits in the middle of the night or spotted ghostly figures floating within the gardens. No one knew who built this opulent castle, nor did they know how many years of history this castle had.

Instructing the crowd to barricade the north, east, and south gates heavily, Yang Ling intentionally left the west gate unguarded. He then instructed Casey to lift Ymir’s head and attack the east gate.

Indeed, when they saw the numbers that Yang Ling brought with him, as well as Ymir’s severed head, the warriors in the castle lost the will to fight. Some walked out with hands in the air to surrender, while others fled hurriedly through the west gate, hoping that they could avoid disaster by escaping into the Terras Forest.

The warriors who fled did not know that even though the west gate seemed to be a pathway to survival, it was actually the place they would die. Yang Ling had already set a trap there. In the face of the mountain barbarians, the expert archers of the forest elves, and Yang Ling’s Magical Beast army, the warriors did not have any means of retaliating.

A complete victory!

In just half a day, Yang Ling had successfully taken down Wissen Castle and captured nearly all of Ymir’s lackeys. Amongst them was the black-robed tactician Goode, who had hoped to escape by disguising himself as a servant.

After controlling the situation, Yang Ling gathered all of the townspeople and began publicly judging the criminal activities of the Anca family’s lackeys. The females were sent to the noose while the males were sent to the guillotine. Other than the tactician Goode who was imprisoned in a secret location, the rest of the evil lackeys were executed, much to the joy of the townspeople.

Seeing their former tormentors getting executed, the crowd cheered, and some even wept in joy. Over the years, many of the townspeople had their families broken apart by the bloodsucking Anca family. Many of the people even had to witness the deaths of their family members!

That night, waves of excited townspeople flooded the streets, making their way to the Evening Primrose Bar where Yang Ling resided. They all presented Yang Ling with gifts of their own.

Merchants gave him crates of crystal coins, hunters gifted him precious Essence Crystals of Magical Beasts… In fact, there was even a poor lady who baked a whole plate of pastries for Yang Ling. To her, pastries with a thin layer of meat filling were the most delicious thing in the world.

In the eyes of the townspeople, Yang Ling was not only a benefactor who had taken revenge for them, he was also the man they would rely on for their livelihoods in the future. As long as he was in Wissen Town, the townspeople didn’t need to worry about the Anca family seeking revenge. They didn’t need to worry about a bully like Ymir emerging in Wissen Town again.

Seeing the sincere merchants and the simple townspeople, looking at the elderly and ladies weeping in joy, Yang Ling did not say anything more. He instructed his servants to hand a cup of delicious rum to everyone present and announced that all of the alcohol that day would be on a fifty percent discount.

It was a party, an all-out party!

Under the influence of cheap, good alcohol, the crowd partied through the night, bustling the entire Wissen Town. Yang Ling’s name spread throughout every corner of the small town like a warm breeze at the end of spring.
