How to Train a Wolf in Another World
Chapter 165
The next day.
To Shuicheng.
The wind is clear and the sky is blue.
This is the first time Xiao Qingchen has set foot in the domain of the Xiao family. 2000 years ago, this was Qinglong City, one of the four main cities. Walking a hundred miles to the east is the main residence of the Xiao family.
The city is very quiet, there are fewer pedestrians on the road, and patrol guards wearing uniform armor can be seen everywhere.
Xiao Qingchen stood in the corner, next to Ling Xiao, just in time to avoid a patrol team.
At dawn, the two set off from Wushuang City, passed through the space teleportation array, and arrived at Shuicheng, but it took only a blink of an eye.
But unfortunately: the two of them did not land directly in the Xiao family's main house, and the city is strictly guarded...
And although Xiao Qingchen recovered his strength, due to forgetting to return home, he has not yet remembered how to use invisibility, teleportation, teleportation and so on...
Therefore, the two had no choice but to keep their feet on the ground and proceed step by step towards the main house of the Xiao family.
"Perhaps we can infiltrate the patrol?"
Xiao Qingchen suggested with great interest.
Ling Xiao just smiled and said nothing.
Soon, Xiao Qingchen discovered the problem: there were dozens of patrol teams inside and outside Zhishui City, the first team was in charge of different areas, and those on the periphery had no chance to get close to the Xiao family's main house!
"The members of the Xiao family seem to be very afraid of death."
Ling Xiao smiled lightly and explained: "People from the four major families are all afraid of death."
But after a person gets used to the many benefits that rights bring him, he cannot easily get rid of those bad habits.
But the Xiao family is indeed decayed.
The former head of the four major families now only leaves an empty shell.
One generation is not as good as one generation, perhaps it is just suitable to describe the situation of the Xiao family.
When Xiao Yuanshan took over the Xiao family, his performance was remarkable, but this person was cowardly to a certain extent, and many things were dragged away by Xiao Yu, a womanizer...
Xiao Yu's methods have always been vicious and decisive, and it is acceptable to deal with small matters. However, when it comes to some major decisions of the Xiao family, the natural indecision of women has emerged inexplicably, so that the Xiao family has suffered from internal and external troubles in recent years.
In the 32 cities of the Eastern District, four inter-city riots have broken out successively. The six cities adjacent to the Northern District, led by Jiangcheng, secretly formed an alliance and protested to the Xiao family many times, demanding independence...
However, it was eventually suppressed violently.
In addition, now, there are two heirs to the Xiao family at the same time, and the scandal 30 years ago was suddenly unearthed. Although Xiao Yuanshan and Xiao Yu maintained a trace of peace on the surface, they have already torn their faces!
And the eight elders of the Xiao family are even more interesting, four to four pairs and a half, one supports Xiao Yuanshan, and the other supports Xiao Tianqing.
In short: the situation in front of the Xiao family is just one word... chaotic.
Ling Xiao stood on his own standpoint, of course he hoped that the Xiao family would become more chaotic, and when Xiao Yuanshan and Xiao Yu were fighting to the death, he would come to reap the benefits of being a fisherman...
But right now, he can't tell anyone about his thoughts.
"There seems to be a shortcut here."
Xiao Qingchen spread out the map and said in surprise.
He dug out this map from Ling Xiao's study, and it was sandwiched between a book of "Baidi Epic Poems". Before going out, he happened to take that book of poems with him.
Carry a book with you, and you can use it to pass the time when you are free. It looks pretty good.
Xiao Qingchen thought so at the time, but most normal people would not agree with his fallacy.
No matter how chaotic the Xiao family is, Ling Xiao sneaking into Shuicheng alone is an extremely absurd and high-risk event that could cost his life at any time!
So before leaving, the chief executive of the Ling family stood outside the space teleportation formation, hesitating to speak, and staring at him sadly, Xiao Qingchen can still clearly describe it now!
Beforehand, he had also considered that this time he would take the risk alone without Ling Xiao's company, but the other party was more stubborn than him, and sent him away with just a few words.
"To Shuicheng, I am a little more familiar with you than you."
"I know people like Xiao Yuanshan, Xiao Tianqing, and Xiao Yu, but Wushuang, you don't know them."
"I am capable of protecting myself."
Although Xiao Qingchen really wanted to say, even if you are unable to protect yourself, I can protect you.
But the big words still let him rot in his belly. Ling Xiao's skills are indeed good, but the premise is...his opponent is also a mortal.
If he meets someone with advanced abilities, Ling Xiao can only protect himself at best.
However, in this world, no one dares to easily guarantee the ending until the final step has been reached.
"Then take a shortcut."
Ling Xiao glanced down at the topographical map, and said in a deep voice.
Xiao Qingchen had no doubt about him, and immediately followed the direction indicated on the map.
Ling Xiao followed closely behind.
The two of them stepped on a remote path, walked along the narrow alley, almost over the eaves and walls, and walked forward with difficulty.
As the so-called shortcut, after all, there is a price to pay.
Fortunately, the final result was only half of the originally scheduled time.
The only unfortunate thing was that Xiao Qingchen found himself surrounded at the moment when his eyes suddenly became clear.
It happened to be a small squad of patrol guards, a total of 24 people.
The other party was holding a unified spear, Xiao Qingchen subconsciously glanced at it one more time, and a drop of cold sweat could not help but seep from his forehead: a middle-grade spiritual weapon with fire attribute added.
Damn it, it's just a patrol with such a good weapon!
Should he say that people from the Xiao family are more afraid of death than people from the Ling family?Or is it that the former has more money in his pocket, so he is well equipped?
"Who are you!? You're sneaking around!"
While the headed guard was yelling loudly, his body suddenly shook, and after a bang, he fell to the ground...
Xiao Qingchen blinked in surprise, utterly astonished.
Then boom, boom, boom—
The remaining 23 people fell to the ground one after another, lying on the ground twisted and twisted.
Xiao Qingchen turned around belatedly, only to see Ling Xiao calmly wiping his fingers with a handkerchief. It was obvious that just now——
"Did you poison?"
"It's just some drugs."
Ling Xiao replied with a faint smile, with a hint of cunning in his blue eyes.
Xiao Qingchen had an epiphany: I really shouldn't have underestimated this person before!
"But it's strange to say that they don't seem to know me...this face?"~
Xiao Qingchen murmured, and then kicked an unconscious guard beside him.
Ling Xiao seemed to have expected this situation, and explained lightly: "They are loyal to the Xiao family's mistress."
Because of this, when I saw Xiao Qingchen, I clearly recognized his identity, but deliberately pretended not to know him, and wanted to take the opportunity to kill him.
However, these people obviously don't have enough brains.
How could Gu Jiuyue come out of the main house and wander around when nothing happened?
Thinking of Gu Jiuyue, Xiao Qingchen's previously bright mood suddenly turned cloudy.
"Although I admire that guy a lot, he is courageous and insightful, and he even makes fun of Mo Feiya, but..."
Xiao Qingchen lowered his eyes and smiled lightly, a trace of mockery flashed in his eyes.
He has heard of Gu Jiuyue's name for a long time, but after he lost his memory, he can't remember what great things that person has done, but looking at it now, Gu Jiuyue is just like Mo Feiya back then... stupid .
It is really stupid to betray one's original partner without finding a strong backer.
But based on the current situation of the Xiao family, even if Xiao Yuanshan wins the internal fight and Gu Jiuyue gets the Xiao family, so what?It's nothing more than an empty shell, and it's a waste of time and energy to spend more time on management and transformation. To use such a Xiao family to take revenge on the Lu family is... a fantasy!
What's more, with regard to the relationship between Xiao Yuanshan and the Patriarch of the Lu family, it is easy to start a war, unless the Mo family and the Ling family are destroyed first, and it is their turn to fight for power in the White Empire, otherwise...
Gu Jiuyue's nature is very shrewd, and the reason why he betrayed Mo Feiya...was definitely not as simple as what Mo Feiya said.
Before this, Xiao Qingchen thought about it intermittently for three days, and finally came to the following inferences.
First, Mo Feiya wanted Gu Jiuyue to use Yehen to destroy Xingye Pond, but he couldn't be sure that Yehen was not Xuanwu Xingjun, but Gu Jiuyue discovered Yehen's true identity...
As for what his real identity is, Xiao Qingchen can't say for the time being.
But since Gu Jiuyue has his memory, she must already know Ye Hen's identity.
Second, based on the first inference, a good bird chooses a tree to live in. Gu Jiuyue feels that the backing of Yehen is more reliable than Mo Feiya, so on the basis of the conflict of interests between the two, he decisively The former was chosen.
Thirdly, the person who bewitched Mo Feiya back then reappeared and abducted Gu Jiuyue in the same way.
Maybe it's abduction, maybe it's a congeniality, or... collaborating? ~~
As mentioned above, the third possibility is relatively high.
That was also the result Xiao Qingchen expected.
To put it bluntly, Mo Feiya is just a poor guy being used by others. Although that guy is really hateful, the real mastermind behind the scenes is the one he wants to deal with.
"Wushuang, you forgot that there is another possibility."
"what?"
"Gu Jiuyue is in love with Yehen."
Ling Xiao looked calmly at the Xiao family's main house not far away, and said softly.
The main residence of the Xiao family, surrounded by vermilion walls, is as high as the clouds, and the outside is still covered with a layer of transparent enchantment.
The possibility of a forced breakthrough is low.
Xiao Qingchen's heart was suffocated, he looked away lightly, and said with a light smile: "There is one thing, I'm quite curious, Doudou and the others had an amnesty in their hands earlier, although they entered the main house of the Ling family safely, but those few The bounty hunter has no token..."
He is deliberately changing the subject.
Ling Xiao knew very well in his heart, and didn't force him, and followed his topic: "Then there is a space ability user among the bounty hunters."
"Ugh?"
"They left, Ling Qi secretly followed, and only found out afterwards."
Ling Xiao added warmly.
If Xiao Qingchen hadn't deliberately asked about this matter, he probably wouldn't have taken the initiative to bring it up.
Since the eighth day of August, the White Empire has become increasingly unstable.
As soon as the national teacher's prophecy came out, the four great aristocratic families kept recruiting talents and selecting swordsmiths with their own goals.
And after the Dragon Yin Sword was born, the supernatural beings who had lived in seclusion for a long time sprung up one after another like mushrooms after a spring rain...
Especially in the city of Hanyu.
With a lot of money, Shi Aiqian can easily fish out a rare space ability user, as well as the bounty hunter who suddenly dared to challenge the Ling family...
The White Empire, I'm afraid the sky is about to change.
This is Ling Xiao's only thought right now.
If the world is divided for a long time, it must be united, and if it is united for a long time, it must be divided.
It's just that the situation of the four major families being divided and governed by divisions has lasted for so many years. Although there have been some small conflicts in the middle, they are by no means as noisy as this year.
"There is an enchantment."
"Ah."
Xiao Qingchen nodded slightly, paused, and reached out to touch the transparent barrier outside the wall.
He stretched out his hand as far as he could, but Ling Xiao grabbed his wrist.
"Don't touch."
At the same time, a finger blade suddenly appeared between Ling Xiao's fingers. With a flash of silver light, the finger blade shot towards the barrier, and then the alarm bell rang...
To Shuicheng.
The wind is clear and the sky is blue.
This is the first time Xiao Qingchen has set foot in the domain of the Xiao family. 2000 years ago, this was Qinglong City, one of the four main cities. Walking a hundred miles to the east is the main residence of the Xiao family.
