Chapter 246
The ancestor of the Xiao family sat in his seat in boredom, stroking the teacup with his fingers. Just when he was feeling uneasy, a man who looked like a guard ran in quickly and knelt in front of him.
"Ancestor, the thief has been found!"
The Xiao family's ancestor jumped up from his seat and asked excitedly, "Where is it?"
He had already put aside the bad premonition.
As long as he could kill the thief who killed his beloved grandson, he would not be afraid of anything.
The guard lowered his head, clasped his hands together, and replied, "Ancestor, the people we sent out said that the thief is at the foot of Hongyan Mountain, forty kilometers away!"
The Xiao family's ancestor was extremely excited. His hands were shaking as he suppressed the joy in his heart and asked again, "Did you see clearly? How many thieves are there?"
"Ancestor, the thief immediately threw away the spiritual herbs in his hand when he spotted us. I guess his accomplices must be not far away! For fear of alerting the enemy, we did not rush to chase him. We just sprinkled star powder on him."
Seeing that the ancestor didn't understand what Star Powder was, the guard explained, "Star Powder is colorless and odorless. Just chant the incantation and it will reveal a person's whereabouts. Ancestor, would you like me to send a few more people to capture those two thieves, or..."
Upon hearing this, the Xiao family patriarch waved his hand and interrupted the guard, "No need. Just tell me the mantra and I will go and meet these two thieves myself."
Seeing this, the guard said nothing more. He reached into his waist, took out a jade slip, and handed it over respectfully.
Upon seeing this, the Xiao family's ancestor didn't say much. He reached out to take the jade slip, then waved his hand and pushed the man out.
The guard responded respectfully and retreated. He lowered his head and bent over, glancing around quickly. When he found that there was no one around, he waved his hand and stood up straight.
At this moment, the man revealed his true appearance. Who else could it be but Ye Lan?
He looked towards the location where the Xiao family's ancestor was and made a light sigh of disdain.
Return it to the ancestor! You took a jade slip from me and didn't even give me a fart!
What a waste of money!
You think you can catch him with this kind of intelligence? Haha.
Ye Lan flew quickly towards the place he had agreed to meet with Leng Qingqiu.
Forty kilometers away, Leng Qingqiu had already prepared a big gift for the ancestor of the Xiao family.
He calculated the time and shook the dragon on his wrist that was pretending to be dead.
"It's your turn."
It eats so much and sleeps all day long without even noticing how much fatter it is than before.
The dragon's head tensed up inexplicably. It looked at Leng Qingqiu innocently and slid down from his wrist reluctantly.
I really don't know how I offended this master again.
A man in love is really a different person when he is away from his partner.
The dragon cried silently in his heart, while standing obediently according to his master's request.
Leng Qingqiu didn't know what the dragon was thinking about him, and he didn't have time to deal with this little thing at the moment. He gently touched the dragon's eyebrows with one hand, and in an instant, the dragon, which was just coiled upright, suddenly turned into the appearance of Leng Qingqiu.
The dragon looked at his own sudden transformation of hands and feet, his face full of surprise.
It has not yet transformed into a real dragon, so it can only maintain its beast form. Although it says that it despises humans, it actually wants to transform into a human in its heart.
My beast form is so handsome and compelling. If I could transform into a human, I would surely charm everyone. There would be no need to worry about not having a Taoist partner.
The dragon observed almost everything, and it was happily twitching its hands and feet.
He paid no attention to Leng Qingqiu, whose face had turned dark. He only saw Leng Qingqiu sprinkling star powder on the hem of the dragon's clothes, and then gave it cold instructions.
"Don't make such obscene expressions with my face."
He really couldn't accept it. The dragon made one obscene expression after another with his face.
At this moment, he was extremely glad that Ye Lan hadn't returned yet...
The dragon noticed his master's displeasure, and put down his arms blankly. He glanced at Leng Qingqiu beside him from time to time, and then quickly left.
It imitated its master's cold expression and tried to get closer to him.
Seeing this, Leng Qingqiu withdrew his gaze. He pointed to a place not far away and said, "Just pretend to be injured and fall there. Then you just wait and see what happens." After Leng Qingqiu finished speaking, he walked directly towards the hidden cave at the foot of the mountain.
When the dragon saw Leng Qingqiu leaving, it was no longer afraid. It walked towards the place Leng Qingqiu pointed, then lay on the ground and dozed off without moving.
Isn’t it just a change of body shape to sleep on your stomach? This job suits me very well.
So, the dragon fell to the ground obediently and started its working mode.
The ancestor of the Xiao family followed the guard's instructions and galloped all the way, and soon arrived at a place forty kilometers away.
He looked around and saw mountains all around him, and an idea came to his mind.
The ancestor of the Xiao family took out a vessel similar to a tripod from the Qiankun bracelet. He threw it upwards suddenly and recited a mantra.
In a breath, the cauldron instantly enlarged and directly covered the entire mountain.
When all this was done, the tripod became transparent, as if everything before was an illusion.
The ancestor of the Xiao family then took out the jade slip and used his spiritual power to explore how to make the star powder appear. When he finished reading it, he crushed the jade slip.
He didn't see that when the jade slip shattered, some powder floated in the air.
The ancestor of the Xiao family closed his eyes and used his spiritual sense to search the area.
He frowned and moved very slowly.
He searched carefully, not missing any corner.
Suddenly, in my mind, at the foot of a mountain, a bright light belonging to Star Powder flashed.
The Xiao family's ancestor suddenly opened his eyes and said excitedly: "I found you! Thief, give me your life!"
Without a second thought, he flew in the direction his consciousness saw in his mind.
He was extremely fast and reached his destination in just a few breaths.
At a glance, he found that the thief he had been dreaming of killing was lying on the ground.
It seemed like he had suffered a serious injury and fainted here.
"God is really helping me!" The ancestor of the Xiao family muttered to himself.
He quickly rushed to the thief who had fainted on the ground, then raised his hand and hit him.
The dragon that was originally sleeping suddenly opened its eyes!
It's completely in trouble!
I was wondering how the master could be so kind as to use a trick to turn himself into his appearance.
So he was waiting here!
What should I do? What should I do now?
Should I fight back or just take the hit?
At this moment, the voice of his master Leng Qingqiu came into the dragon's mind.
"Not hiding?"
[I went to the hospital for a checkup, so I was delayed for a day. Sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time, (づ ̄ 3 ̄)づ]
