Chapter 255 Cao Li’s Thoughts
"Fuck, you're such a bad guy! Luckily the master contracted you, otherwise, you would have dared to steal the master's magic sword." Xiao Jinzi said contemptuously.
"So many people are trying to grab it, I don't need one more, maybe I can really get it? The magic sword can increase the combat power of the original body by half, who wouldn't want it?" Bai Cang gave it a look, looked at Xie Jinglan and said:
"Little girl, this is how the world is. The strong prey on the weak. When you have something that makes people covet and envy you, it's like the blood of you and your mother. If you don't have the ability to protect yourself, you will be slaughtered."
"That seems to make some sense." Xiao Jinzi agreed with this statement: "It's just that that bastard Lu Defeng is too abominable. We have to find a way to kill him to prevent him from ruining our business in the future."
"Even if we kill him now, it will be useless. The news of the Divine Sword has spread throughout Tiandu City. Although some people are skeptical, the allure of the Hunyuan Divine Sword is too great!
There were many people who witnessed the battle for the sword back then. They would rather believe it and send people to investigate the whereabouts of the sword." Bai Cang said.
"So you were out for so long just to find out the news outside! Since this notice was posted by Lu Defeng, he must be in Tiandu City now. Have you found his whereabouts?" Xie Jinglan asked him.
This Lu Defeng is so hateful. If he is in this Tiandu City, he must not be let go.
"He is now hanging out with the Han family. Han Mingyu's father, Shangjin City Lord Han Pingqi is at the middle level, in the late stage of Refined Void Realm. I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to kill him." Bai Cang's expression was a little solemn.
"Fuck! That Lu Defeng dared to post a wanted notice in Jiangyang City. It turns out he has the Han family as his backer!" Xiao Jinzi said.
"So, wouldn't the Yanmen Stronghold have to give a considerable portion of the money it earns from looting and robbery to the Han family every year?
After all, the Han family has great power and influence in Xizhou. If Lu Defeng does not offer enough money and property to the Han family, it is likely that Yanmen Stronghold will not be able to stay there peacefully for a long time.
The conflicts of interest and power games in this Middle World are so intricate and complex that it's hard to imagine! "
Xie Jinglan's face wasn't looking good either. Anyone who wanted to harm her must be eliminated. "No matter what, Lu Defeng must not be allowed to stay. The Han family can protect him temporarily, but not forever. He will eventually be left alone."
She summoned three little bees with her mind, "Go find Lu Defeng and send a message back when he's alone. Be careful not to be discovered."
"I know." Three little bees buzzed around her and flew away.
"In that case, I'll go out for another walk." Bai Cang said and disappeared again.
**********
In a house of the Cao family in Tiandu City.
Cao Li thought of what his father had just said and felt annoyed. He took out a jar of wine, opened the seal, and took a big gulp.
The door was suddenly opened with a bang.
"Sir, there is good news." A young man about his age strode in.
"Cough, cough, cough..." Cao Li choked on the wine in his mouth and started coughing, "Guan Liang, are you in such a hurry to reincarnate?"
"Sir, good news!" The follower Guan Liang walked up to him.
"What good news can I have?" Cao Li took the wine jar and took another big gulp of wine.
"Sir, it's true." Guan Liang snatched the wine jar from him, "Don't drink it. I'll let you see a person. You will definitely be happy."
"Good news? It would be better if all the members of the Han family are dead. Otherwise, I will tear your head off." Cao Li's eyes were already a little drunken.
"It's Xie Jinglan. She's come to Middle World..." Guan Liang opened the paper in his hand and placed it on the table in front of him. "Please take a look."
"Xie Jinglan..." Cao Li was stunned when he saw the portrait of the person on the wanted poster. He sobered up a little and sat up straight.
"It's really her! This woman has really come?" The familiar eyes he saw yesterday appeared in his mind again.
"I see, it's her after all."
"Absolutely true." Guan Liang pointed at the words written on it. "This notice was posted by Lu Defeng from Yanmen Stronghold. So, the person who blew up Yanmen Stronghold was Xie Jinglan."
"The Hunyuan Divine Sword has appeared! The Divine Sword is actually in her hands?" Cao Li thought about it. He had seen her use a sword before, but it was definitely not a divine sword. This must be Lu Defeng deliberately saying this...
"No, that woman is in danger."
"What should we do? This notice has been posted for two days and two nights! I'm afraid someone has already gone looking for her!" Guan Liang also became anxious.
When he was in Guangyuan Continent, the young master had been sending people to secretly inquire about Xie Jinglan's news. It seemed that he liked her.
“But then again, if Miss Xie really has the Hunyuan Divine Sword, perhaps she can help us bring down the Han family, so that you don’t have to marry that Han Mingyu.”
"What are you thinking about?" Cao Li patted his forehead.
"Send everyone in Tiandu City to secretly inquire about her whereabouts. If you find her, report immediately."
"Yes!" Guan Liang retreated after receiving the order.
Cao Li sat for a while, then picked up a cloak and sword and left.
night.
The entire Tiandu City was brightly lit. Because the big martial arts competition was approaching, there were more pedestrians on the streets than during the day, and it was more lively.
Cao Li walked on the street, fanning himself gently with a hand, and Guan Liang followed closely behind him.
The street they were walking on was the most famous red-light district in Tiandu City. Brothels, gambling houses, etc. were all on this street, and it was the place that men liked to frequent the most.
At this time, Cao Li stopped in front of a "Zuisheng" restaurant.
"Are you sure it's here?" he asked Guan Liang behind him.
"Yes, sir." Guan Liang leaned close to him and whispered, "Our people have been keeping an eye on them. Lu Defeng walked into this brothel a quarter of an hour ago and ordered their top prostitute."
"Hmph! After doing something so suicidal, you still dare to come to a place like this to have fun?" Cao Li snorted coldly.
Regardless of whether the appearance of the Hunyuan Sword is true or not, the fact that Xie Jinglan was able to break the ninth-level ancient formation and destroy the Yanmen Stronghold shows that her strength must have been improved again!
He also understood the woman. Although she was vindictive, as long as he didn't provoke her, she would generally not take the initiative to provoke others.
She had just arrived in this middle world, it was impossible for her to use artillery to destroy the entire Yanmen Stronghold for no reason. Lu Defeng must have done something to her?
But Lu Defeng escaped death, but instead of keeping his tail between his legs and behaving himself, he repeatedly challenged her bottom line. So he is not far from death!
"Hey! What handsome young men, you are here!" Several gorgeously dressed girls came out and surrounded the two men.
