Beneficial Union: Chasing A Rogue Wife Chapter 4 Won't You Play With Me?

He has enemies in the royal family but who will have the guts to set his treasure house on fire. Prince Wei? He thought.

Chen Yun Ming immediately erased that idea before he thinks more about it. The b.a.s.t.a.r.d prince doesn't even have the right to the throne.

Other parts of his manor were also set on fire but the damage was not much compared to the treasure house that was almost burned down to the ground.

The protection array was not even triggered. As the fire was from inside the treasure house itself. Was this an accident? Chen Yun Ming has considered this possibility.

"Hehehe! Did you enjoy our gift, your highness?" Chen Yun Ming heard a child's voice. By the sound of it, it was the voice of a young girl around five or six.

The voice was eerie and it sounded like it was coming from the bottom of a well.

This incident is not an accident! "Who are you?!" He was so mad that his face turned red, became black and then turned to red again. "You dare burn my treasure house?! If you are not a coward, show yourself!"

While saying these, he made a hand gesture as a signal to one of the experts in the manor to sense where the voice was coming from.

"Well, I am a coward. You should not punish me. You will forgive me, right? I just wanted to play with your highness… Won't you play with me? They said you are very kind…" The child's tone sounds pitiful. Like a spoiled child who is ready to cry anytime.

Chen Yun Ming, doesn't know what to say. Who will teach a child that burning a treasure house means to play? "Alright, first, tell me who asked you to do this."

"Oh, it's also part of the game! Hehe! They said there will be a huge reward!" The childish voice happily said.

Then added, "I will tell you the rules, your highness. Would you like that?"

"Alright." The child may be strong but still too naïve. Chen Yun Ming is confident, that if he will be given a chance to prepare, they would be able to catch this d.a.m.ned kid.

"Hehe." The child giggled. "Your Highness here's the rules. You have forty-seven lands, stores, and houses in the entire s.h.i.+zi empire. I will burn one every day. If you are able to save more than half of it you win! If not, I win!"

"What?!" Chen Yun Ming is furious. This d.a.m.ned brat. How did this child know the total number of properties he owns? Some are even hidden carefully and publicly advised that they are owned by his subordinates!

"So… you now know the rules, your highness. How was it? It is fun, right? I will see you tomorrow! Hehe!" While saying that, the child's voice gradually fades.

"Wait!" What fun are you talking about?! You're going to burn my resources! I want to burn you alive! "Prepare! I will go to father for help. You are all useless! No one was even able to learn where that voice came from!"

Chen Yun Ming left his manor and headed to the palace. The cultivators serving the prince made sure that they did what needs to be done.

Most of the guards in the manor are a fifth-degree cultivator. There are even some who are on a seventh degree but none was able to see any trace of the arsonist.

That means either the child owns a concealing treasure or the child's cultivation base is stronger than theirs.

It's still easier to believe the latter. Still, it's a shame for all of them to be bested by a very young cultivator regardless the degree…

In the servants' hearts, they are worried. Who did the second prince offend and how great was that offense that he/she even went to the extent of burning all his possessions? Are they the ones who are next in line to be burned?
