Chapter 177 The most urgent mystery to be solved

"Okay, I understand."

In the room of the villa, Xu Qianqian had just finished a call and put away her phone.

"How is it? What did your dad say?"

At the side, Su Ming was holding Xiao Haier. When he saw Xu Qianqian ended the call, he immediately stepped forward to ask.

Xu Qianqian turned her head and looked at Su Ming.

From Xu Qianqian's eyes, Su Ming could tell that she had gained something.

"It has been confirmed." Xu Qianqian said, "Just after the interference with Yanbo's use, within an hour, only one person among the senior officials in Longyao City reported to the detection department."

Hearing this, Su Ming snapped his fingers.

That was a successful move.

"Hindering the use of Yanbo will only interfere with the alchemical industry and special rituals. Although it will cause considerable trouble to the alchemists, in just one hour, it is unlikely that the senior officials of Longyao City will pay attention to such an abnormal situation and immediately report it to the detection department."

Su Ming grinned and said this.

"They were able to react in such a short time and immediately report to the detection department. This is almost certain that the other party is conducting an investigation with a purpose."

Such a person is undoubtedly the collaborator of the terrorist who was stirring up trouble and holding cruel rituals in Longyao City.

So, it is basically confirmed now.

"There is something wrong with the senior executive of Longyao City who transferred the report of the detection department." Su Ming said with a firm tone: "And the traitor who appeared in the senior executives of Longyao City is most likely the person who hired the "evil" mercenary group and wanted to capture Xiao Haier."

"Mi Ling!" Xiao Haier understood what Su Ming meant and immediately shouted indignantly.

Obviously, after learning the news about the bad guys who had always wanted to catch him, Xiao Haier was awakened to all his previous new and old grudges.

Xu Qianqian, on the other hand, had a heavy expression on her face.

no way.

Now that this has been confirmed, it proves that the terrorists who secretly attacked the Wang family and held cruel rituals are the "evil" people.

After knowing this, Xu Qianqian still felt heavy-hearted.

"The opponent is one of the largest and strongest forces in the underground world. Such a powerful enemy is definitely a disaster for Longyao City."

This is what Xu Qianqian was thinking.

The strength of the mercenary organization "Sin" is indeed enough to make anyone feel fearful.

Faced with this huge force that is said to be headed by two seven-star professionals and dominates the underground world, even Yinze City, the strongest of the four major base cities, would not dare to say that it can contend with it, right?

After all, there is only one seven-star professional in Yinze City, and there is still some gap in overall strength compared to "Sin".

If you want to fight against "Sin", the largest mercenary organization in the underground world, you may have to gather all the living combat forces of the four major base cities to do so.

If it were just Longyao City, it would not be able to stop the evil hand of "evil".

Thinking of this, Xu Qianqian couldn't help but start to worry whether the ambush she was going to set up would be successful.

If we take "evil" as our opponent, even if many forces in Longyao City join forces, the hope of ambush being successful is relatively small.

Xu Qianqian began to worry about this.

Seeing this, Su Ming spoke in a relaxed tone.

"Don't worry, even if the opponent is from Sin, we have a great chance of winning." Su Ming said, "I don't believe Sin will send all its high-end combat forces to Longyao City."

Having a huge power has its advantages, but it also has its disadvantages.

That is, the other party needs to take care of too many things and it is impossible for them to concentrate all their energy, manpower and material resources to perform a task.

Otherwise, if the other party really wanted to do something, there was no need to act secretly like this. They could just rush in and destroy Longyao City.

The reason why the other party didn’t do this is not because they didn’t want to do it, but because they couldn’t do it.

"You know, the underground world is not as harmonious as the outside world. There are countless cases of dogs biting dogs and gangs eating gangs."

"As one of the overlords of the underworld, Sin must have many mortal enemies, and there must be countless people watching them, ready to bite off a piece of flesh from them at any time."

"Plus, every base city hates these underground professionals. Many big forces and big families will also keep an eye on the scumbag leaders in the underground world. It can be imagined that this "evil" will definitely not be able to avoid the sight of so many people, and concentrate its forces specifically on Longyao City."

Su Ming analyzed everything for Xu Qianqian.

"You don't need to worry too much. At least the 'evil' group currently staying in Longyao City cannot possibly have the power to dispose of a base city at will."

Considering these, Su Mingcai didn't feel too worried.

Again, the chances of success are very high.

If he really failed, Su Ming also had a way to escape.

"It's not like we don't have a chance of winning, so don't think too much about it."

Su Ming persuaded Xu Qianqian in this way.

"That's right. There's no point in worrying. Now that things have come to this, we have no choice but to fight."

Xu Qianqian finally came to terms with it, and her worried expression disappeared, returning to normal.

Su Ming then got to the point.

"Who is the senior official in Longyao City who reviewed the report from the detection department?"

Considering that the other party was coveting Xiao Haier and had an unknown hostile relationship with him, Su Ming still had to know the identity of the senior official in Longyao City.

Xu Qianqian did not hide this.

"Do you know Mohist school?"

Xu Qianqian asked this question.

"Mohist?"

Su Ming was slightly startled.

Naturally, Su Ming was familiar with this family.

It’s not because the other party is a well-known big family in Longyao City.

It is true that the Mohist family’s influence and strength in Longyao City are not weak, but compared with the Wang family, Xu family, Li family and other top families in Longyao City, the Mohist family is still slightly inferior.

There are two reasons.

First, the other party is a new family that has joined Longyao City for a short time, only about twenty years. Compared with other long-established large families in Longyao City, its existence can be said to be very short.

Second, there are no six-star professionals in the other clan, and the strongest person is only five-star. Compared with those top families with six-star professionals, they are naturally inferior.

The combination of these two reasons makes the Mo family's influence and strength in Longyao City much inferior to the top families, and they can only be called a first-class family.

But if we only talk about reputation, the reputation of the Mohist family in Longyao City is, to some extent, even more powerful than top families such as the Xu family and the Li family.

The reason is simple.

"Are you talking about the one who was once exiled, but was accepted by Longyao City 20 years ago and joined the Mohist School in Longyao City?"

Su Ming looked at Xu Qianqian in surprise.

"That's right."

Xu Qianqian nodded heavily.

The Mo family of Longyao City is a family with a very extraordinary origin.

He is not a hunter family like the Xu family and the Li family, who started from scratch in Longyao City and have grown and developed to this day. Instead, he belongs to an accepted outsider clan.

"The Mohist School is a branch of a super family in the heart of the continent, and their bloodline comes from the nightmare species."

Read the error-free version on 6Ⅹ9Ⅹ bookⅩ bar! 6Ⅹ9 book bar first publishes a novel.

What Xu Qianqian told was the news that had once caused a sensation in Longyao City.

"Because it is a collateral branch, the bloodline has become increasingly rare over the long years of inheritance. The Mo family lost the potential that the nightmare bloodline should have a long time ago. Not to mention leading to the seventh star, even the sixth star, the number of people in the Mo family who can reach it is getting fewer and fewer."

As a result, the side branch of this super family was gradually ignored by the main family, its status in the family became lower and lower, and the distance between it and its clansmen became farther and farther, until it was completely isolated.

In response to this, one of the leaders of the Mohist school made a wrong decision out of extreme reluctance.

No one knows what that decision was.

People only knew that after that, the Mohist school caused public outrage. Not only were many members of the family executed, but the remaining members were also expelled from their families, or even exiled. They were not allowed to return to the family for the rest of their lives, and they could not even go back to the base city where the family was located.

"Under such circumstances, the Mohist School eventually drifted to the coastal areas of the continent, entered the sphere of influence of the four major base cities, and joined Longyao City twenty years ago."

"A lean camel is bigger than a horse. Even if they have lost the bloodline potential to become a seven-star professional, and even those who have achieved six-star professional status are gradually no longer appearing, the Mo family is still a large family with five-star professionals and multiple senior professionals."

"With this, the Mohist School quickly gained a foothold in Longyao City and continued to develop over the past twenty years."

Obviously, the development trend of Mohism is quite good.

Even though a six-star professional has not yet appeared, the current head of the Mo family has become a leader among the five-star professionals. Relying on the family influence and his own strength, he has successfully entered the upper echelons of Longyao City and become a member of the upper echelons of Longyao City.

Su Ming had heard that over the years, the Mo family had been carrying out many actions with the support of the patriarch's status.

For example, the Mohist School has been actively trying to form alliances and intermarry with the top families in Longyao City in an attempt to save its increasingly thin bloodline and reawaken its bloodline's potential.

For example, the Mohist school secretly adopted many homeless children, trained them, and strengthened the family's strength and influence.

"My father once told me that although training private soldiers is something that every big family and big power will do, the Mohist family seems to be the most exaggerated among all the forces."

Xu Qianqian said to Su Ming: "The number of private soldiers trained by the Mo family is the largest among the many large families and major forces in Longyao City. For this reason, they have been targeted and investigated by council members at high-level meetings."

These are the daily battles among the political bigwigs, and Su Ming doesn't care at all.

There is only one thing Su Ming cares about.

That is. "You mentioned Mohism at this time, could it be..."

Su Ming narrowed his eyes.

"Yes." Xu Qianqian said calmly: "The senior official in Longyao City who just retrieved the report from the detection department is the current head of the Mo family and one of the senior councilors in Longyao City, Mo Leng."

In other words, this Mo Leng is most likely the high-ranking official in Longyao City who hired "Evil", the one who coveted Xiao Haier's bloodline.

He has a cooperative relationship with "Evil", and it is more likely that he is exchanging what he has with "Evil" and selling out Longyao City in order to obtain the desired benefits.

After learning about the identity of the other party, the head of the Mo family, Su Ming had many more associations.

For example, why would the other party care so much about Xiao Haier, to the point of hiring underground professionals, letting a wolf into the house, and even selling out important intelligence about Longyao City?

Because the Mo family was once the inheritor of the nightmare bloodline and was once a member of a super family in the heart of the continent.

They knew the glory that nightmare bloodline could bring.

They had lost this glory, and because of it they took the wrong path and made wrong decisions, which led to them being expelled and exiled from their own families, suffering heavy losses, and eventually they had to live in a "remote and poor" place like Longyao City.

They are definitely unwilling to accept their fate.

Therefore, in order to regain their past glory, they did not hesitate to cooperate with underground professionals, introduce "evil" into Longyao City, and betray Longyao City, all in order to get Xiao Haier, the phantom demon cub with the potential to evolve into a nightmare species.

Su Ming even felt that Mo Leng and the Mo family were most likely exploited by "evil" because of this ambition.

After all, it was obvious that the underground mercenary organization had some plans in Longyao City and wanted to use some cruel rituals to achieve their unknown goals.

To achieve this goal, they needed intelligence from the Wang family, needed to enter Longyao City, and more importantly, they needed the opportunity, channels, and means to carry out the ceremony quietly in Longyao City.

All of these are inseparable from the strong support of a local dignitary in Longyao City.

So, Mohism was chosen.

Otherwise, why would Xiao Haier, a rare phantom demon cub, come to Longyao City instead of appearing in other places? Xiao Haier was timid and shy, and she had no phantom demon bloodthirstiness at all. It would definitely be difficult for her to take the initiative to enter a human gathering place full of strange enemies.

Even if Xiao Haier accidentally entered Longyao City, why was the first to get the news of its existence not from another family, but from the Mohist family, whose strength and influence were not top-notch? This was clearly premeditated.

Someone relied on a huge intelligence network to learn about the special existence of Xiao Haier. In order to achieve their own goals, they drove him to Longyao City in order to lure the Mohist School into cooperation with them.

Su Ming would not believe that the person who could do this was not the overlord of the entire underground world.

In other words, "the culprit of all this is not the Mohist School, but the underground mercenary organization 'Sin'."

That is the real mastermind behind everything, the one who planned everything.

The question is simply, "What is their purpose?"

"What is the purpose of the ceremony they perform?"

"Why do they need to use Wang's family as sacrifices?"

This may be the most pressing mystery that needs to be solved in this turmoil.

Su Ming already had a premonition.

This time there will be a commotion comparable to the Huaming Campaign.

Longyao City has been mired in a quagmire and plunged into darkness.

From the very beginning, he had no way of staying out of it.

I wish all my friends good luck in the Year of the Tiger!

Happy Chinese New Year! (^U^)ノ~      (End of this chapter)
