Creation Color Master

Chapter 520 Xu's Conspiracy

It was late at night, the bright moon hung high in the sky, and the sound of insects chirping could be heard on the empty streets.

On the second floor of the tea shop, Chu Mo seemed to remember something and suddenly asked softly, "Where are the Soul-Exterminating and Soul-Transforming?"

After a moment, two more people appeared in the room quietly. They were wearing black clothes and masks, holding swords, and half-kneeling on the ground respectfully. They were Miehun and Zhuanpo.

Chu Mo looked at the two of them and said softly, "Go find a young man named Bai Xiaofei and monitor his daily life. If there is anything suspicious or unexpected, you can handle it as appropriate."

"Then we should investigate Master Bai Xiaofei and that guy named Xu Damao to see what happened between them."

"Also, be careful about your whereabouts and don't let anyone find out."

The two received the task and disappeared into the store in the blink of an eye.

At this time, in the center of Canglan City, the lights are bright, the night market is open, and the streets are full of people coming and going. They are dressed gorgeously, and their female companions are dressed gorgeously.

In front of a tall attic, carriages were seen coming and going hurriedly, and most of the people getting off were people of certain status.

In a private room in the attic, Xu Damao, wearing an ochre-colored robe, was seen sitting on a chair with a somewhat nervous look on his face.

He looked around again and again, checking every detail he could see. At the same time, his triangular eyes occasionally looked out the door, as if waiting for someone to arrive.

"Sir, this is the room. Boss Xu is inside."

Hearing the voice, Xu Damao jumped up from his chair and walked quickly to the door with a flattering smile on his face.

"Crunch--"

The door of the room was opened, and three people walked in one after another, followed by servants.

Seeing the visitors, Xu Damao stepped forward with a bright smile and clasped his fists, saying, "Hey, Commander Wang, Master Xie, and County Magistrate Liu, I have been waiting for you for a long time. Please take a seat quickly."

"Little Chen, tell someone to bring up the best banquet in the restaurant that I mentioned earlier."

Xiao Chenzi responded and left the room.

Xu Damao hurried back to the table, poured a cup of tea for each of the three people, and said, "You have worked hard on the journey, and it is my fault to invite you to dinner at this time."

"When the food and wine are served, I will drink three cups of wine as an apology."

Wang Su'an was sturdy, wearing a dark blue robe with water patterns and a piece of top-grade jade hanging from his waist. He said with a smile, "Xu Damao, brother, you don't have to be so polite. We are all acquaintances. We drank together last time. I wonder why you invited us here so late at night?"

At this time, the old man in a long gown with a ruler on his waist grinned and said, "Brother Xu, just say whatever you want to say. We are not outsiders."

Xu Damao smiled and took out three storage bags from his arms, saying flatteringly: "This is my gift to you all, please accept it. In addition, there is one more thing you need to know."

"I want to take this opportunity to collect the debt and get the property back. Is that okay with you, my lords?"

"Of course, after the matter is accomplished, it will naturally not benefit the three adults?"

Liu Hanjiang, who was wearing a jet-black gown and playing with a folding fan in his hand, said softly, "Bai Xiaofei is a stubborn guy. He took that courtyard from us. Everyone knows about it. I'm afraid we can't stop the gossip if we take it back now."

Wang Suan and Xie Wenjin nodded in agreement. Xie Wenjin said, "Yes, if this matter gets out of hand, it won't be any good for us. If the higher-ups find out, you'll all be in big trouble if they investigate."

Liu Hanjiang interrupted and said, "Yes, I think that courtyard is a little run-down. I advise you not to take such a risk. It's not worth getting into trouble for a run-down courtyard."

Although Xu Damao had a smile on his face and was full of flattery, he was cursing everyone in his heart as old foxes. He was afraid that something might happen and they would be implicated.

So, he smiled and said, "It's like this. Although the courtyard is dilapidated, it is also the ancestral property of my Xu family. This matter is entirely my own. If something goes wrong, it has nothing to do with you. How about that?"

Liu Hanjiang gave a thumbs up and said, "My dear brother, you are a righteous man, but if you ask me, after you succeed, you will stir up trouble with others and expose them. It would be better to let them disappear inexplicably."

"Haha, this is just a joke, don't take it seriously, drink some wine."

Hearing this, the other two smiled evilly, and then laughed out loud.

Xu Damao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he thought: Yes, that Bai boy is cunning and cruel. Keeping him around will bring me endless troubles. Why not cut the weeds and get rid of them completely? This way, I won't have to worry about any troubles anymore.

Seeing that the three had agreed, Xu Damao smiled inwardly. This way he could use some means to get the house deed back. This guy Bai Xiaofei still fell into his hands in the end.

As if they had reached an agreement, the four of them began to clink glasses and chat happily.

The cheerful laughter of four people could be faintly heard in the private room.

The next morning, Chu Mo was still helping in the tea shop, and Bai Xiaofei came to teach Sun Zifeng again. This time, the two nodded and greeted each other.

Bai Xiaofei still only taught for one morning. The two of them were communicating in the backyard for the whole morning, and Chu Mo just watched from a distance.

Soon, it was noon and Bai Xiaofei left on time.

Arriving at the front yard, Bai Xiaofei smiled at Sun Yong and said, "Brother Sun, tomorrow is the anniversary of Master's death. I need to stay for a day. I'm afraid I won't be here tomorrow. Xiaofeng has assigned me a task. You just need to watch him complete it."

Afterwards, Bai Xiaofei left. Chu Mo watched his back as he disappeared into the crowd.

However, he did not rush home, but went to an ordinary restaurant, ordered a table of ordinary food and wine, and told the waiter to come and get it the next morning and make sure it was prepared for him.

After paying for the food and drinks, Bai Xiaofei returned home. This time he took out the hidden iron sword and started waving it in the yard.

On this day, Bai Xiaofei spent all his time eating and practicing sword skills until very late.

Of course, everything that happened today was told to Chu Mo by Miehun and Zhuanpo who were hiding in the dark.

When Chu Mo received the letter, he learned that Bai Xiaofei was going to buy a sword, prepare meals, etc., and after investigating him, Chu Mo already understood what Bai Xiaofei was going to do?

A day passed in a flash, and today was the master's memorial day, and it was also the last day Xu Damao gave himself to pay off his debt.

Early in the morning, Bai Xiaofei took the sacrificial offerings he had prepared long ago and left the city, coming to a remote place which was overgrown with weeds. A mossy tombstone and a raised mound of earth proved that there was a grave here.

Bai Xiaofei placed the fruits, wine and meat he brought in front of the tombstone, and lit incense and candles. He then scattered them in front of the tomb and said slowly, "Master, today is the day I have decided to avenge you, so you cannot drink."

"I have been practicing sword skills to kill thieves for three years, just to repay my teacher's kindness in this life."

"I will not regret killing Xu Damao no matter what happens in the future. Master, you must protect your disciple and kill Xu Damao to avenge you."

Bai Xiaofei talked a lot in front of his master's grave, and before he knew it, he was in tears.
