No one has been able to investigate what exactly caused Jia Lie Family to be destroyed.
But when Xiao Clan, Ao Ba Pa Family, and Mittel Auction House went to investigate Wolf Head Mercenary Group, they unexpectedly discovered that all the mercenaries there were already dead.
Moreover, the body seemed to have been dead for a long time, which shocked the spies who were looking for information.
Immediately, the spies from the major families rushed back to the family as quickly as possible and reported the matter to the head of the family.
In the Xiao Clan Xiao Zhan's study.
At this time, Xiao Zhan was also a little shocked after receiving the news from the spies. Then he frowned deeper and deeper, wondering what he was thinking about.
After swatting away the spy, he stood up and walked back and forth in the study several times.
After a long time, he murmured.
"It seems that Wolf Head Mercenary Group and Jia Lie Family collaborated to do some outrageous things that led to the destruction."
Although he thought so, he always felt that there must be other reasons behind the destruction of these two forces.
It's just that he doesn't want to continue the investigation. If any big sects or big forces come out, it won't be a good sign for the Xiao Clan, which is currently developing rapidly.
Let's just stop here.
Mittel Auction House Same here.
In Ya Fei's room, Ya Fei sat at the table and listened to the spies' report, frowning slightly, obviously not understanding the true situation revealed by the investigation.
However, she didn't think too deeply. After all, the destruction of Wolf Head and Jia Lie Family this time was very strange.
"Could it be you? Shop Owner Xiao"
she whispered.
Only she could hear the sound.
After the spies retreated, Gu Ni came up and talked about the results of the test at Ruyi Zhai, and then said.
"Shop Owner Xiao seems to have no abnormal behavior in response to my test. I think it won't be Shop Owner Xiao who destroys Jia Lie Family."
Hearing what he said, Ya Fei thought for a moment and nodded.
"Okay, let's end this matter."
Gu Ni nodded, then said goodbye and left.
In fact, what they don't know is that the destruction of the Jia Lie Family and Wolf Head Mercenary Group was really caused by Xiao Cheng, but this guy is a drama queen. Easily fooled everyone.
It's just that this matter will be revealed sooner or later, it's just a matter of how long it takes.
Ruyi Zhai kitchen.
He has been in this contemplative position in the kitchen for a long time, but he still hasn't figured out a reasonable way to establish a membership system.
"Oh~, I only have the machine, but I can't think of a reasonable solution. I guess I am the first time traveler to be such a useless person."
After thinking about it, he decided to make some pastries to supplement the counter. As for the membership system, it's not that the store manager doesn't want to do it, but he doesn't have enough brain cells.
After being busy in the back kitchen for more than an hour and replenishing all the pastries on the counter, this guy actually returned to the back kitchen to figure out what kind of idea he wanted to implement.
Suddenly, he questioned the system through his mind.
"System, can I make the pastry I thought up myself?"
Oh yeah, he pumped his fist excitedly, it really worked.
But what is he going to do on his own this time?
He rubbed his chin and thought for a long time but couldn't figure out what to do. Suddenly, he seemed to see something out of the corner of his eye. Suddenly, an idea flashed.
"Yes, I can make some small cakes. I remember the method is quite simple."
Now there is only one type of cake, Cream Cake, but it also has many shortcomings.
First, due to limitations in cultivation, people with different cultivation levels will have different effects after eating it.
Second, the effect will get worse each time, which is very unpleasant, but it is also a benign protective measure. Third, the system has been stipulated that each person can only use it three times, which basically dampens the enthusiasm of buyers from the beginning, which results in the fact that no one cares about Cream Cake now.
So he wanted to make a popular cake for sale, and thinking about it, a small cake was the most suitable.
It's just that he has to try hard to remember how to make a small cake and the required ingredients.
This will take some time.
There is no rush now, there is nothing urgent to do, just let nature take its course.
So the guy started to meditate again, but this time the thing he was meditating on was about making small cakes.
In the camp of Qingshan Town Wolf Head Mercenary Group.
A group of Black Mist suddenly appeared in the sky above the Wolf Head Mercenary Group camp, and there was a burst of weird laughter in the Black Mist.
"Haha, I feel the breath of so many souls, how wonderful it is."
Then Black Mist began to roll, and the next moment, countless stars began to rush towards Black Mist.
This Soul Hall's Protector Wu is actually absorbing the souls scattered around to strengthen itself.
If an upright person saw this, he would probably draw his sword directly.
After the bits and pieces of soul energy disappeared, Protector Wu in Black Mist made a comfortable sound, and then laughed strangely.
"I feel like my realm has improved again, Xiao Cheng, I have to thank you."
Immediately afterwards, Protector Wu fired a ball of black energy and integrated it into the killed Nine-star Dou Zhe executive, using secret methods to turn him into a puppet.
This puppet only obeys the orders of Protector Wu.
"Look for an opportunity to kill Xiao Cheng"
This is the order given by Protector Wu to this puppet.
There was a flash of light in the originally dim eyes of this puppet, which disappeared in an instant, then roared and ran into the Monster Mountain Range, disappearing without a trace.
Protector Wu, who saw the puppet running into the Monster Mountain Range, laughed. The man who laughed was weird and terrifying.
"Jiejie, I hope you can bring me an unexpected surprise this time."
After the words fell, Black Mist disappeared from the spot.
And the atmosphere here at Wolf Head Mercenary Group has become even colder.
At this time, Ruyi Zhai's store.
Xiao Ning was shamelessly chatting with Xiao Yi Xian.
"Xiao Yi Xian, what state are you in now?"
In this regard, Yue'er was also curious about the state of sister Xiao Yi Xian, so he blinked at her with his big eyes.
Being stared at by the two people's hot eyes, she felt a little embarrassed and said.
"I eat some pastries every day, and I don't know where I am now."
This actually made Xiao Ning both surprised and envious.
"Hey, I also want to be a store clerk at Ruyi Zhai, but unfortunately, the store manager won't accept me."
Seeing this guy sighing like this, Yue'er comforted him like a little adult, stood on the chair and patted his shoulder.
"It's okay, I Yue'er will cover you, hehe"
Regarding Yue'er's behavior, he just rolled his eyes at her speechlessly, then looked around and asked Xiao Yi Xian.
"Where is the store manager?"
"He went to the kitchen to get busy."
After hearing what she said, Xiao Ning thought for a while and asked.
"Any new pastries lately?"
"Yes, Horseshoe Pastry"
Then she introduced Horseshoe Pastry to Xiao Ning.
It's just that Horseshoe Pastry seemed to make Xiao Ning not very satisfied, so he didn't buy it.
"It's not suitable for me, I'd better buy two packs of Peanut Nougat"
At this moment, Xiao Cheng somehow came out of the back kitchen.
After seeing Xiao Ning, he was also stunned.
"Xiao Ning, why did you come to my store?"
The moment he saw Xiao Cheng, Xiao Ning was stunned for a few seconds, but then he smiled.
"Shop Owner Xiao, I just broke through Three-star Dou Zhe not long ago, isn't it awesome?"
Seeing this kid acting so arrogant, he really wanted to tell his Eight-star Dou Zhe realm first.
This kid must have not been beaten by society.
But on the surface, Xiaozhe said a few polite words of congratulations before asking.
"Have you finished buying pastries?"
He nodded and said.
"I've bought it, I'm about to go back."
"Okay, then let's go"
Xiao Ning: "..."
But he didn't say anything, waved his hand and left.
Looking at the guy's leaving figure, he couldn't help but shake his head slightly.
"Three-star Dou Zhe is so promiscuous. It seems that we need to find an opportunity for this kid to experience a severe beating from society."
