C156

The next morning, Han Xiao woke up early and left. Out of politeness, he wanted to say a few words to Li Long, but after thinking about Li Long's unscrupulous face, he decided to quietly leave.

Leaving the city, Han Xiao took out the map and looked to the east. He didn't know when the Devil Shadow Sect would arrive, so he decided to go to the nearest Kingdom of Xi Yu.

After making his decision, Han Xiao no longer hesitated to keep the map and directly flew in the direction of the Xi Yu Empire, but what he didn't notice was that behind him, there was a large figure of a flower.

In the morning, Li Lian went to the parlour to eat as usual, but when she arrived and saw the dishes were already served, she suddenly realized something was wrong.

"Where's that guy?" Li Lian asked.

"That guy?" You must be talking about Senior Han. " Lee thought for a moment and then asked.

"Right, wasn't he still here yesterday? Is he still not here yet?" Li Lian said in dissatisfaction.

"Little Friend Han left early in the morning. Come, think, Lian'er, let's eat first." Lee Long said as he walked over from behind.

"Gone?" Hearing Li Long's words, Li Lian suddenly felt that it was a little hard for her to accept. She had always thought that Han Xiao had followed her to his house because he wanted to court her, but now that Han Xiao had left without even saying goodbye, did that mean that Han Xiao actually had no intentions of wooing her?

"En, Lian'er, didn't you dislike little friend Han? It's good that you left." Li Long said as if he did not care about Han Xiao staying.

Li Lian couldn't help but ask doubtfully when she saw Li Long's attitude, "Father, weren't you very friendly with that fellow yesterday? What happened today?"

Li Jun also looked at Li Long with a puzzled expression. She also didn't understand why Li Long would change his attitude so quickly.

"Yesterday was yesterday today, so no matter how passionate he was, he wouldn't be able to see it. Moreover, little friend Han offended someone from the Devil Shadow Sect, so it's not certain if he'll be able to live after leaving. What need is there to be distracted by someone who's about to die?" Compared to yesterday, they were two completely different people.

Hearing Li Long's words, Li Jun contemplated for a moment before raising her head. "Father, your son understands. In the future, your son will not mention Senior Han in front of others."

Li Long nodded. He looked towards Li Lian, but before he could say anything, he saw Li Lian abruptly stand up. She threw down her chopsticks and quickly left.

"Lian'er." Li Jun wanted to stand up and chase after Li Lian, but she was stopped by Li Long.

Lian'er, that's something to think about. Today, bring some people to Mo Lin's place and investigate that kid's words. It's fine if he is sincere towards Lian'er, but if he just wants to play, you know what to do. Lee Long said coldly.

Hearing what Li Long said, Li Jun was stunned for a moment before she nodded and said, "Yes, Father."

In the blink of an eye, five days had passed. During these five days, Li Long still went to the Spirit Beast Chamber of Commerce as usual to keep an eye on them, while Li Lian's mood had always been depressed ever since Han Xiao left. Even if Li Jun wanted to coax her a few times, she basically wouldn't have a smile on her face.

Seeing Li Lian acting like this, Li Long's words also made Li Lian clear. As for Mo Lin, Li Jun, she was certain that he was truly sincere towards Li Lian. She could only turn a blind eye to his occasional visits to Li Lian.

On this day, Li Long was patrolling around the Spirit Beast Chamber of Commerce according to usual practice when he suddenly felt an aura at the intermediate stage of the Spirit Transformation Stage charge in from the outside. Immediately, a few low grade spirit beasts on the first floor became restless because of this aura, and even many cultivators who came to buy things collapsed on the ground, staring at the door with difficulty breathing.

Li Long rushed to the first floor and saw a shop assistant with a face full of killing intent in Cang Wei's hands.

"I was wondering who was it that dared to come and cause trouble with me. It turns out to be Elder Cang. I wonder, how have I offended Elder Cang?" Li Long calmly walked in front of Cang Wei and slapped his palm towards Cang Wei without leaving a trace.

When Cang Wei saw Li Long subconsciously throwing the shop assistant aside to face Li Long with a palm, Li Long no longer together with Cang Wei, and directly dodged Cang Wei's palm. At the same time, he extended his left hand to grab Cang Wei's hand and said with a faint smile, "Elder Cang, why are you so angry? Could it be that something happened to the spirit beast I sent over?"

"Manager Li should be well aware of why I'm so angry. Let me ask you, did Niu Lu come to your place a while ago?" Cang Wei pulled out his hand and said with a cold snort.

"Indeed, Elder Niu had. However, he left after a short while." Li Long said with a smile.

"He left? I think he was killed by someone. " Cang Wei said as he looked at Li Long coldly.

"Killed by someone? "Elder Cang must be joking. No matter what, Elder Niu is still a Mid Spiritual Transformation expert. Who in the entire Xia Zhou City has the ability to kill him?" Li Long said in shock.

Seeing Li Long's shock, Cang Wei wondered if he had suspected wrongly. However, he immediately rejected that idea. "Wouldn't Manager Li be able to kill Elder Niu so easily?" Cang Wei said coldly.

Hearing Cang Wei's words, Li Long looked at Cang Wei in disbelief and said: "Could it be that Elder Cang suspects me?" "That's impossible. The Demon Shadow Sect is a big customer of the Spirit Beast Chamber of Commerce. What reason do I have to kill Elder Niu?"

"Maybe you had a conflict with Niu Lu, how else can you explain why Niu Lu died here?" Cang Wei said as he looked at Li Long coldly.

Let's not talk about whether Elder Niu is really dead, even if he is, how can you prove that I was the one who killed Elder Niu? Furthermore, you still need to take the loot even after catching the thief. Now that you have Elder Cow's body, and no witnesses have seen that I was the one who killed Elder Cow and put the crime of murder on my shoulders, although I am always a nice person, if Elder Cang is unable to find any conclusive evidence that I was the one who did it, I will definitely not let this matter go. " Li Long flung his sleeves in anger as he spoke.

Don't think that just because you're talking to someone that you have a higher level of cultivation than me that you're more respectful than me. Behind me is the Devil Shadow Sect, and you're only the director of a Spirit Beast Chamber of Commerce. If you want power, you don't have connections, so you should think about it carefully. Cang Wei said with a sneer.

That's right, I am indeed only the supervisor of a small merchant guild, but don't forget that all of the spirit beasts in your Devil Shadow Sect are purchased from me. Not only is it from your Devil Shadow Sect, Obscure Academy, the Heavenly Cave Spiritual Academy, the Devil Devouring Demon Academy, the Confucian Academy, and the Southern Shang Dynasty, all of them were purchased from me. Lee Long said coldly.

Hearing Li Long's words, Cang Wei's face turned even uglier and colder as he said, "As expected of the manager of Spirit Beast Chamber of Commerce, he's so good at arguing. Since Li Long wants to become our Demon Shadow Sect's enemy, I'll grant your wish."

"Elder Cang, you should make some things clear. I'm a businessman and I don't want to provoke unnecessary trouble. If it wasn't for you forcing me, I wouldn't want to fall out with your Devil Shadow Sect." Lee Long said coldly.

"I'm trying to force you. Truly ridiculous. If you didn't kill the elder in my sect, would I try to force you?" Cang Wei said with a sneer.

Seeing that Cang Wei truly believed that he had killed Lu Li, Li Long felt a sense of helplessness. Lu Li had indeed killed him, but this was something he couldn't really admit.

Li Long said apologetically to Han Xiao in his heart, "I indeed didn't kill Elder Niu, but I know a person who might have killed Elder Niu."

"Who?" Cang Wei asked.

It was a young man surnamed Han. Elder Tianniu did indeed come to my place, but after he saw that young man surnamed Han, he immediately followed him out. Later on, that young man surnamed Han came back, but Elder Niu didn't come back. Li Long said.

"That young man surnamed Han, Han Xiao, it must be him." After Cang Wei said that, he suddenly turned around and left. He didn't even want to stay for a moment.

Li Long silently said in his heart as he watched Cang Wei's departing figure. "Little friend Han Li, I have no other choice. I hope you don't blame me in the future." If Han Xiao had seen it, he would probably call Li Long a traitor again. Unfortunately, Han Xiao had already left, so he was unable to see Li Long's current appearance, and he did not know that he was actually sold out by Li Long.
