Chapter 192 Waiting
Li Xiu sat on the tree waiting, and the little fox squatted on the side, wagging its tail boredly.
Not long after, they saw Tao Zi walking towards them slowly.
Li Xiu jumped down from the tree and asked, "Are you okay?"
He looked her up and down, but the cloak blocked his view and he couldn't see anything.
She smiled and nodded, saying, "Don't worry, it's intact."
Li Xiu was quite surprised and asked, "Even if the monsters had consumed their spiritual power in advance, they shouldn't be so vulnerable. Your realm..."
Tao Zi replied casually, "I used the Fire Spirit Fruit to set up a formation and severely injured the leader. The rest are nothing to be afraid of."
"Can the Fire Spirit Fruit be used to set up a formation?" He was shocked. "I'm so ignorant."
The little fox jumped into her arms and asked slowly, "Did those people get the news? After all, a man, a woman, and a fox are quite conspicuous."
"I disguised myself as a man and forged my identity. No matter how much news is passed, it won't reach us."
Li Xiuan nodded and said, "Okay, let's go."
Tao Zi asked him, "Where are you going?"
He was silent for a moment, then humbly asked for advice: "What do you think?"
She looked at the place where the action had taken place before and said, "Wait a moment."
Although they didn't know why, they still jumped onto the tree and waited quietly.
But the little fox on the side couldn't help but ask, "Tao Zi, are you sure those people won't come looking for us?"
She said, "I disguised myself as Asahi Kamon."
Li Xiu asked in surprise: "Can this be faked? Will they believe it?"
"I used the Red Yarn Formation. They have to believe it even if they don't want to."
The little fox didn't understand what he said, but Li Xiu knew: "Are you related to Xujiamen? How come you can even set up this formation?"
"The fake formation created with the Fire Spirit Fruit has form but no substance, and can only launch one attack." Tao Zi said nonchalantly, "If they were smarter, they would have noticed something was wrong, but unfortunately they were too panicked."
Li Xiu remained silent. It turned out that the Fire Spirit Fruit was used for "dyeing". This use was really unexpected.
Not long after, someone rushed there. Seeing the corpses scattered all over the ground, Zhou Xisuo was completely furious: "Who did this!"
Xu Zhiruo frowned and said, "The images of their death should have been transmitted to the sect, but we are unable to contact the sect now."
He gritted his teeth and said, "If I find out who did this, I will never let them go."
Xu Zhiruo pursed his lips, feeling a bit of a headache. Senior Brother He on the side suddenly spoke up: "Senior Brother Xu is in the Kaiguang period. We can't touch anyone who can kill him."
Zhou Xisuo was stunned and his expression became worse.
He didn't care about that and continued, "We have to worry about another thing now."
"What?"
Senior Brother He looked at Xu Zhiruo and said, "Is that person or those people coming for Uncle Xu, or for the Minglan Sect?"
Zhou Xisuo immediately understood the seriousness of the matter and his expression became solemn.
Xu Zhiruo spoke at this time: "Xisuo, our sect has already been made a laughing stock before entering the valley. We must not allow any more trouble to happen in the valley."
He looked at the corpses, thought carefully for a while, and then said, "If what you said is true, then what should we do?"
Xu Zhiruo looked at Senior Brother He hesitantly and said, "In this situation, Senior Brother He is more experienced than me."
Senior Brother He was modest for a while, and when Zhou Xisuo's expression gradually became impatient, he slowly said: "Young Sect Master came here for the Huanling Plant this time, but there are many people who are eyeing it."
Zhou Xisuo asked, "You mean, those people might be targeting the Huanling plant?"
"It's just a guess." He paused and continued, "Who knows, he might want to defeat them one by one. If possible, please inform the Young Sect Master."
Someone raised a question: "But we have no way to inform the people on the main peak."
Senior Brother He didn't say anything, but looked at Zhou Xisuo steadily. He was one of the most favored disciples of the current class of the Punishment Hall by the main peak.
Zhou Xisuo was silent for a long time before he said, "Then I will contact the Young Sect Master and explain the situation."
As expected, he was able to contact the Young Sect Master's people. Senior Brother He glanced at Xu Zhiruo inconspicuously. He looked indifferent, as if he didn't care.
Zhou Xisuo took out the photo ball from his storage bag and input spiritual energy into it.
After a while, the image ball lit up, and a calm face appeared, saying, "Junior Brother Zhou, what's wrong?"
He is a useful person by the side of the young master.
Zhou Xisuo turned the photo ball towards the corpse, and the tone of the voice on the other end suddenly changed: "What's going on?"
He simply explained the matter.
It was quiet over there for a while, and there was no one in sight, only some landscape scenes. He must have gone to discuss something with someone.
A mirror so small that it could be ignored appeared in Brother He's palm, and he calmly pointed it at the picture over there.
After a long while, someone reappeared and said, "Be careful and don't stay there. Someone will be there to clean up soon."
Zhou Xisuo responded directly: "Understood."
After he put away the photo ball, Senior Brother He sighed, "What a pity for Uncle Xu. He was always a good person."
As he spoke, he naturally bent down, wiped the blood off Uncle Xu's face, and straightened his clothes.
Xu Zhiruo glanced at him doubtfully. He had never heard that Senior Brother He and Uncle Xu had a good relationship.
But then I thought, he has always been like this, and he can talk to anyone, so it is normal for him to sigh a few times at this time.
After Senior Brother He straightened up with a look of regret, he reminded him, "Senior Brother He, don't touch the remains here. It would be bad if you accidentally destroyed the evidence left by the murderer."
"I was negligent." Senior Brother He's expression changed and he said anxiously, "I just wiped the blood off his face."
Zhou Xisuo couldn't stand his trembling look and said, "That's nothing. There's no way there's any evidence. Let's go. Don't waste time."
He left first with a cold face. Xu Zhiruo smiled helplessly and apologized to Senior Brother He: "Senior Brother He, Xisuo is in a bad mood, otherwise he wouldn't be so rude. I'm really sorry."
He waved his hand and said understandingly, "It's okay. Who can be in a good mood when encountering something like this?"
As the group walked, Senior Brother He's expression suddenly changed.
"What's wrong, brother?"
Xu Zhiruo asked with concern. Hearing this, even Zhou Xisuo stopped and turned to look over.
He held his stomach, feeling a little embarrassed: "My stomach is a little uncomfortable."
Zhou Xisuo frowned and was about to speak when someone else spoke up, "Brother, my stomach isn't feeling well either."
It happened intermittently, with three or five people holding their stomachs and looking embarrassed.
Xu Zhiruo thought for a moment and asked, "What did you eat?"
They looked at each other, thought about it carefully, and finally found it. It was a dim sum shop.
