Di Xunmo's words made Venina quite curious: "According to what Your Highness said, there are other marquises behind these people."

"Moreover, during these times, you also knew that your subordinates were doing these things?"

Di Xunmo nodded and explained, "This is not strange."

"Some veteran marquises have a large number of guest officials under their command."

“But the resources that can be allocated are extremely limited.”

"At times like this, these guest officials will try to find ways to obtain resources themselves."

"Among them, the most direct way to obtain resources is naturally to accept guest missions."

"But as you know, many guest missions have extremely low cost-effectiveness."

"Therefore, some guest officials will choose to find another way. They use the convenience of their positions to seek some benefits."

"These things are already considered unspoken rules."

"Of course, since it is for personal gain, it is against the rules and will naturally be discovered one day."

"At this point, if they are strong enough, they won't be caught and the matter will be left unresolved."

Vinina understood what was said.

And Emperor Xunmo said: "Anyway, there are two standards for completing this task."

"Scare them off and make them stop attacking. If this kind of incident doesn't happen again for a century, then we can consider it mission accomplished."

"Or, capturing him would naturally be considered mission accomplished."

"Besides, it is impossible for a God King or Chaos Transcendence to do such a thing. You can definitely handle it."

"Anyway, it's up to you to decide how to handle this matter."

Vinina nodded and chose to take the task.

after all.

This task is indeed quite simple.

Even if the miners and thieves are not caught, the mission will be considered accomplished as long as no more thefts occur within a century.

In other words, this task, at best, would only take a century to complete.

One century and eighty thousand merits, the cost-effectiveness is already top-notch.

"At worst, I can just practice in seclusion in the orchard."

It's only a century, so it doesn't matter even if you practice in another place.

The biggest impact is that it is not as easy as practicing some moves at will in your own cave.

But there is no problem in comprehending the origin of the great Dao.

soon.

As the task is accepted.

Vinina also went directly to the orchard outside the city.

……

Outside Xundu.

Vinina's figure quietly emerged.

Look towards the golden forest of giant trees not far away.

There are large tracts of golden fruit trees, each of which is more than ten thousand meters high. When they gather together, the entire area in front of them is illuminated with a gilded color.

Above these tall golden trees, countless branches hang down, and on top are pale golden fruits that look like watermelons.

"Is this the Jade Emperor Fruit Tree?"

Vinina had heard of the Jade Emperor Fruit.

In the early days of Xiao Kingdom, one piece of this thing was worth hundreds of thousands of cosmic sands and was considered a very luxurious fruit.

Only those in the Chaos Realm are qualified to enjoy it.

And in front of you.

In this large orchard, the number of fruits hanging down must be at least in the millions or tens of millions?!
"If you guard this orchard, you might become greedy."

Vinina couldn't help but sigh at this time.

Don’t say anything else.

With so many fruits, if one were to take away one thousandth or one ten-thousandth of the output of a million fruits, that would be an income of hundreds of millions of cosmic grains of sand.

Hundreds of millions of cosmic sands are a considerable income for a guest official who is not given much attention.

after all.

Just like Yun Chenhou back then, he was also worth hundreds of millions of grains of sand in the universe, and he would feel the pain.

As for some guest officials, their strength gradually fails to catch up with the marquis they follow. They are no longer valued and have no fiefdom, which may make their lives even more miserable.

"It is also possible that he is in a certain Chaos Realm and his will needs to be tempered."

Vinina analyzed the possibilities.

But no matter which possibility it is, it is almost certain that it was done by one of our own people.

after all.

For this kind of industry, the ancient country of Yanfeng naturally has guards and formations to protect it.

No one dared to wantonly destroy the formation, as this would incur the wrath of the ancient nation of Yanfeng.

The only people who can sneak around the formation, guard the place and do all this can be the ones who are very familiar with this place.

"The one guarding this place seems to be a peak Chaos Realm master named Tianhai Dasheng, who is a guest official recruited by Xun Ning Hou."

"Marquis Xun Ning broke through 85 epochs ago and became a first-class man. He is the seventh first-class man in the entire Emperor Xun lineage."

"He currently has four guest officials under his command. Tian Hai is the third Chaos Realm person he has recruited. However, he does not seem to be taken seriously."

Before coming, Vinina had made sufficient preparations.

This naturally includes information about the guardian of the orchard and his background.

And it is just as speculated.

The guardian of this orchard meets the conditions for embezzlement.

Moreover, it was obvious that the other party was not taken seriously under the command of Marquis Xun Ning.

Otherwise, he would not have accepted the mission of guarding the orchard.

You know, Vinina has seen a lot of this kind of tasks on the guest token.

After all, there are many similar industries in the ancient country of Yanfeng.

All kinds of ores, various other spiritual fruit gardens, etc., all need to be guarded.

And the task of guarding these areas.

They are all extremely cost-effective.

Usually, in a thousand years, the merits gained are less than ten thousand.

If he was taken seriously, Xun Ning Hou would definitely not assign this kind of task to him.

However, this is actually normal.

After all, Emperor Xunmo had specifically said at the beginning that good tasks require competition.

Although Marquis Xun Ning became a first-class official earlier than Emperor Xun Mo, he was still not as good as the other first-class officials.

Among the guests under the command of Marquis Xunning, the Great Sage Tianhai can only be ranked last.

Naturally, you cannot get good tasks and can only take those with low cost performance.

"However, these are all speculations. We should wait until the fruit thief is caught before we can say anything."

As she was thinking about this, Vinina's figure flashed again.

But he had quietly entered the orchard in front of him.

As an investigator of poachers, Vinina naturally knew how to enter and exit the orchard.

……

At this moment, quietly enter the orchard.

Vinina naturally did not show up, but concealed her own aura and quietly transformed into a golden leaf with the characteristics of a perfect divine body, hanging on a fruit tree.

At the same time, strands of willpower attached to the miners in the orchard.

In the orchard, there are many gardeners who are at the level of Eternal True God.

Their role is to mine and collect the ripe Jade Emperor Fruits.

of course.

The reason why I am attached to them is naturally not because I doubt them.

A group of eternal true gods do not have the ability, nor the courage, to steal the Jade Emperor Fruit.

Attaching it to the body is just to better monitor the entire orchard.

However, as time goes by.

A long time passed, but still no discovery was made.

Vinina was not anxious about this.

After all, as long as she investigated for this century without any mistakes, she would have completed her mission. Therefore, she simply immersed herself in comprehending the origin of the Tao.

……

As time goes by.

It looked as if an era was coming to an end.

On this day, Vinina was still comprehending the origin of the Tao.

But deep in the orchard, a small team of people were picking Jade Emperor Fruits.

Each golden fruit is placed in a special container, exuding an enticing aroma.

Everything seems to be as usual.

Until, strands of purple hair quietly surrounded him.

Swish.

When there are enough hairs, all of them will be intertwined in an instant.

By the time these eternal true gods reacted, they were completely surrounded.

"Oops!"

"That strange beast that stole the fruit has appeared again!"

"Damn it!"

"Are we going to die?!"

All the eternal true gods were extremely terrified.

This kind of incident has happened many times before.

Without exception, every time the Eternal True God was attacked, he died tragically.

They were naturally extremely terrified at this moment.

However, the true form of the creature with purple hair has been revealed, and it is a purple wolf-like beast.

"Go to hell."

The strange beast roared, but it directly used its will to attack. It was obvious that it wanted to end the battle quickly and not give these eternal true gods any chance to ask for help.

However, just at the moment it launched the attack.

A huge hand suddenly stretched out from the body of an Eternal True God, and grabbed the purple shadow in its hand.

This sudden change left all the Eternal True Gods stunned.

But what was even more confusing was the purple monster.

"not good!"

The purple monster was startled and immediately burst out with its divine power, trying to break free and escape.

however.

At this time, a sneer rang out: "Want to run?"

“Although it is just a clone formed by a wisp of will mixed with divine power, it is not something that a mere kid who has just entered the Chaos Realm can escape from.”

As the words fell.

He clenched his hand suddenly, and the purple beast in front of him seemed to be shrunk and was directly held in the palm of his hand.

Easily captured.

At this moment, the strange beast also realized instantly that the person in front of it was definitely not someone it could match.

He immediately transformed into a human form, knelt on the ground and said repeatedly: "Sir, spare my life."

Vinina said indifferently: "It's okay to spare my life, but tell me, who is the mastermind behind you?"

……

at the same time.

In the orchard.

Above a gigantic Jade Emperor Fruit tree, a figure hovering in the air suddenly opened his eyes, and his expression instantly turned ugly.

"Damn it, when did the inspectors come?"

In just a moment, Tianhai Great Sage guessed that the person who suddenly appeared in the orchard must be the Supervisor.

His eyes changed from uncertain to bright, and the next moment, his figure suddenly flashed towards the place where the incident happened.

Just a few moments.

His figure is arriving.

Then, without hesitation, he grabbed it with his claws.

"Damn little thief, I've been watching you for a long time, and now you finally show up, come here!"

This attack was directed directly at the strange beast imprisoned by Vinina's divine clone.

However, just as the claw was about to fall, Venina's true form appeared and intercepted Tianhai's palm in mid-air, and said indifferently: "Great Sage Tianhai, it seems that I caught this thief. It's not good for you to attack directly like this, right?!"

Tianhai Great Sage narrowed his eyes slightly, and after carefully examining Venina, his expression finally became stern, and then he immediately smiled and said, "I was wondering who it was, it turned out to be Li Yi Great Sage!"

"Great Sage Li Yi, when did you come to the orchard?"

Vinina said calmly, "There are strange beasts stealing fruits in the orchard. You are guarding this place and you are unable to deal with it, so you sent me here."

Tian Hai smiled and said, “I see.”

"However, this is the place I manage and guard after all. I wonder if the Great Sage can give me some face and give me this strange **?"

"Otherwise, if this gets out, wouldn't it make me look quite incompetent?"

"Of course, Great Sage, your mission of supervision will not be affected. I will report this to the emperor and explain that this is a thieving beast that we have captured together."

Vinina said playfully, "Leave it to you?"

"And what will you do?"

Upon hearing this, Tianhai Great Sage said, "You don't have to worry about this, Great Sage. I will handle it properly."

"The Great Sage should understand what I mean."

Vinina laughed, "But why would I do that?"

Tianhai Dasheng's tone became a little more serious, and he said: "Great Sage, please give me some face. This is good for both you and me."

"otherwise……"

Vinina scoffed, "How else?"

"Still giving you face?"

"Who do you think you are?!"

Tianhai Great Sage's expression changed completely, and he whispered, "Do you really want to be my enemy?"

"Great Sage Li Yi, I know you are quite capable, but as the saying goes, one more friend means one more way."

Vinina was too lazy to talk nonsense: "Okay, there is no need to discuss this matter further."

Tianhai Great Sage took a deep breath, his expression finally changed completely, and he said coldly: "You are indeed brave, but I hope you don't regret it!"

Finished.

He turned away in anger.

And just at the moment when he turned away.

The purple beast's eyes suddenly widened, with a look of fear on its face.

Then, under Vinina's solemn gaze, his body gradually fell apart.

"Through the slavery contract, can you kill him with just one thought?"

"Quite decisive."

"However, from what Tianhai said, it seems that the person behind this strange beast is not him."

This is very easy to analyze.

otherwise.

The other party doesn't have to say so much at all, he can do it remotely.

The reason why this situation happened now is most likely because Tianhai informed the real owner of this strange beast after leaving.

"To be able to get Tian Hai to do something for you, you must either be of a very high status or have strength that is at least beyond the Chaos Realm."

"But it doesn't matter."

Vinina didn't care about this.

In fact, she really didn't care how to deal with this strange beast.

But Tian Hai just wanted to get something for nothing and took away half of the merits, which made her unhappy.

Naturally, I didn't give him face.

"No matter who is behind him, even if it is the Divine King, he must handle the aftermath of this matter first."

Vinina was not worried. After all, even if the purple beast was dead, the Dixun lineage would trace its source through cause and effect.

In a short period of time, I couldn't find my own troubles.

As for Tian Hai, she didn't even take him seriously. (End of this chapter)
