Top-notch Urban Evil Cultivator

The last sentence was added by Liu Bo.

It's natural that Master Gong wouldn't be thinking about Xia Chongshan.

But at this time, it's always good to say something nice.

Moreover, he made it clear.

Master Gong came for Lin Xuan.

He wouldn't, and wouldn't dare, make up such a thing.

"Hahaha!"

Xia Chongshan burst into hearty laughter, the sound echoing through the office.

"No wonder, heroes truly emerge from among the young! Excellent, excellent, excellent!"

He stood up, walked up to Lin Xuan, and patted Lin Xuan on the shoulder.

"If you have the chance, please introduce me! I haven't seen Master Gong in so long!"

"Yes, Elder Xia!"

Lin Xuan nodded, his expression respectful.

But in his heart he was thinking:

Introduction?

He has never even met Master Gong once, so what makes him think he can be introduced to someone?

Xia Chongshan patted him on the shoulder again, then turned around and strode towards the door.

"Alright, you get back to work. I've finished everything I needed to do. I'm off!"

His voice was casual.

Liu Bo quickly stood up and followed him:

"Mr. Xia, let me see you off..."

"Need not."

Xia Chongshan waved his hand without turning his head.

"Don't bother seeing me off, go about your business."

After saying that, his figure flashed in the doorway and disappeared into the corridor.

They come without a trace and go without a trace.

Liu Bo stood there, mouth agape, as if wanting to say something, but Xia Chongshan was nowhere to be seen.

After confirming that the old man had left.

He let out a long breath.

He leaned against the door like a deflated balloon.

My back was soaked with cold sweat.

They're finally gone!

He turned his head to look at Lin Xuan, just about to speak.

But he found Lin Xuan still sitting in the same spot, his body trembling slightly, and he shook his head at him.

Liu Bo is not stupid.

I already felt that Xia Chongshan's trip had gone far too smoothly.

A dignified ninth-level expert, an elder of the clan, lost a person and disgraced himself, and just left so lightly?

Not in line with common sense.

Seeing Lin Xuan's expression, he finally understood.

That old bastard.

They still made a move!

It was when I patted his shoulder just now!

Liu Bo was unsure what to do, unsure of Lin Xuan's current situation.

He was about to reach out and investigate.

Lin Xuan spoke first, his voice steady:

"Director, Elder Xia is gone just like that? Senior Xia Guang was murdered without warning, and Xia Yu has mysteriously disappeared. Is this the end of it? I thought he was going to be furious! I was terrified!"

His words sounded like a sigh, yet also like lingering fear.

Liu Bo listened to Lin Xuan's words.

I didn't rush to answer.

After thinking for a moment, he realized what was going on.

Xia Chongshan could hear their conversation!

That old fox, though he left on the surface, secretly left behind some tricks.

"Alas, what an undeserved disaster!"

Liu Bo sighed, sat down opposite Lin Xuan, and spoke with a frown.

"Who could have imagined this would happen? It's also my fault. My attention was focused on your sparring with Ye Jin, and I didn't notice that Brother Xia Guang had already left."

His voice was full of self-reproach, but his eyes said:

I understand, I will cooperate with you.

He wanted to provide Lin Xuan with a solid alibi!

When Xia Guang died, Lin Xuan was sparring with Ye Jin.

Whether Xia Chongshan believes it or not.

That is indeed the case.

"Has there been any other unexpected events in Jiangzhou recently?"

Lin Xuan nodded and changed the subject.

"I haven't heard of it yet."

Liu Bo shook his head, then seemed to remember something.

"You're right. I'll ask Xiao Ye to help me check the recent situation in Jiangzhou again, and see if there are any other strange things happening."

A conversation between two people.

Truth and falsehood, reality and illusion.

Outside the base.

Next to that highway.

The place where Xia Guang had his accident.

A figure appeared out of thin air.

Xia Chongshan.

He stood hunched over by the roadside, staring at the ground.

That's where Xia Guang parked his car.

The bloodstains have been cleaned up, and the asphalt road has been restored to its original color.

But in his eyes, those dark red marks were still there.

That's... the blood of the Xia family.

He remained motionless, like a statue.

A gentle breeze blew, and his long robe fluttered in the wind.

"The people of Tianmai...have always been detached from worldly affairs, so they wouldn't need to intervene..."

He muttered to himself.

"Could it be that this matter really has nothing to do with that kid?"

He closed his eyes, his ears twitching slightly.

It seems like it's listening to something.

After a long while, he opened his eyes and sighed.

"Xiaoyu, where are you again?"

His voice contained worry, helplessness, and a hint of inexplicable weariness.

Xia Yu is a junior he watched grow up.

He has exceptional talent.

They were just too young and impulsive.

Just like when I was young.

Now that his life or death is uncertain, how could he not be anxious?

But he couldn't show it.

In front of Liu Bo and Lin Xuan, he had to maintain the composure of a ninth-level expert and the dignity of an elder of the Xia family.

He stood there for a while, then turned and disappeared.

Just as silently as he came.

.

Lin Xuan returned to his dormitory on the eighth floor.

Close the door and draw the curtains.

He sat on the bed, crossed his legs, closed his eyes, and felt the hidden true energy within his body.

That true essence was very weak, like a single strand of hair, hidden at the edge of the dantian.

It stayed there quietly, like a parasite.

It remained still, silent, and attracted no attention.

But Lin Xuan knew it was listening.

Listening to every word he said, every single sentence.

That old bastard!

They actually pulled this trick!

On the surface, they didn't take it seriously, but secretly they installed a bugging device!

If I hadn't discovered this so inexplicably...

If I'm not careful, won't I expose myself?

That old guy is definitely not someone to be trifled with!

but…

This was Lin Xuan's biggest surprise.

It's your own essence that allowed you to discover this old man's methods!

Logically speaking, such a being, since daring to attack me directly, must be confident that I won't be detected.

Ninth order versus fourth order.

The disparity in strength is too great.

Is it because of my special circumstances?

Lin Xuan wasn't sure.

Spiritual Energy Gathering Technique? The Origin of Evil Fire? Or perhaps that flying sword?

He thought about it for a long time, but had no answer.

After thinking for a while, Lin Xuan decided to just ignore it!

Wait!

耗！

Let's see who can outlast whom!

We can just not bring this up again!

Thinking about it.

Lin Xuan immediately sat cross-legged and began to cultivate.

The true essence flowed slowly within the body, following the path of the Spirit Nourishing Method.

One cycle, one cycle.

Next.

For the entire day, Lin Xuan spent the rest of his time in his room meditating, except when he went downstairs to eat.

He always paid attention to his language when speaking to anyone.

And so it went until late at night.

A quiet, deserted night.

The moonlight outside the window was very bright, shining on the floor like a layer of silver frost.

A few insect chirps occasionally drifted from afar.

Lin Xuan, who was cultivating, suddenly opened his eyes.

He heard no sound.

But his sixth sense told him...

Someone is coming.

That feeling was very subtle.

He watched as Rose, with the little girl, emerged from the shadows in the corner.

Lin Xuan was terrified.

He was about to speak up and warn them.

"Is this the newcomer?"

The little girl had already spoken, her voice clear and crisp.
