After jumping across seven or eight streets from the roof, Sun Huo slowed down and jumped into an alley, then walked out calmly and turned onto the street. Even so, he still did not remove the invisibility spell.
, still walking slowly among the people going out like a transparent person. Fortunately, the rain has stopped at this time, and there is no sign that is too surprising and disturbing.
Although the previous incident was just an accident, from the time when his whereabouts were exposed as soon as he entered the city and was reported to be surrounded, to when Xiao Bai and his two men heard the news and rushed there, to when the ordinary people from the four families gathered at the scene, the time spent in between was also
It was less than a meal. Such a quick response also allowed Sun Huo to get a glimpse of the tight control of these four families in Xianlai City. Although the informants did not dare to directly monitor him at the moment, they would be able to see him in the city in the future.
No matter where you go, you can't avoid their attention as soon as you show up.
This situation made Sun Huo feel very uncomfortable, but there was nothing he could do about it. And through this incident, he had noticed that the attitude of Xiao and Bai's family towards him was very different from when he lived in the place where he lived. They seemed to be fighting over each other.
He is trying to win over him, but what he doesn’t understand is what qualities or abilities he has that are worthy of the other party’s trouble.
Sun Huo, who had no idea that he had become one of the pawns in the game of interests between the sect and the Immortal Cultivation Family, decided to put this doubt aside for the time being. After thinking hard for a while, he couldn't figure it out.
Here, he will soon have to deal with him again. The other party will always say something or have clues about his plans. Now, he has other thoughts.
Because this Xianlai City is protected by the Immortal Cultivation Family, it does not suffer from natural disasters and wars like ordinary ordinary cities. It can be said to have some history and heritage, and it must have preserved many classics and epics.
Miscellaneous studies and other kinds of classics and books, these things are precisely what ordinary cultivators despise and don't care about.
Although he had only heard Mu Xin mention it casually during a heart-to-heart talk while drinking tea after building the foundation, but somehow, the words stayed in Sun Huo's heart. He himself didn't like to have too many rules and regulations in his words and deeds.
I prefer to be free and easy, but I also understand that such a short-sighted and disrespectful act like that day cannot happen a second time in front of others. Mu Xin is a sworn brother and can be generous and not care about it, but if it were changed to
When dealing with outsiders, any unseemly behavior will only attract unnecessary contempt and disdain to oneself, adding unnecessary obstacles to communication and putting one at a disadvantage.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Sun Huo planned to collect some of them regardless of category, so that he could study them when he had free time, both to increase his knowledge and to pass the time.
Having made up his mind, Sun Huo hurriedly moved to a remote place to remove the invisibility spell. Then he took his time and searched for bookstores one by one along the street.
While Sun Huo was immersed in a sea of books, Xianlai City was as prosperous as ever. An underground order was spread among all the big and small forces in the city, strictly ordering them to close their doors and go into hibernation to suspend all trading activities. Anyone who violated the rules would cause trouble.
Destroy! Those who falsely spread the news about Xiao Feng, destroy! For the uninformed people in the city, not only did they feel a sudden change in the atmosphere, but they even felt a faint sense of chill.
An hour later, in a luxurious elegant room of the highest standard in the famous Shanhai Tower in the city, Mu Xin and another scarred man sat opposite each other in front of a sumptuous banquet. At this moment, next to him
There is also a middle-aged man dressed as a shopkeeper who is reporting something respectfully.
This report lasted for about half a cup of tea, and Mu Xin just waved him off. However, during this period, the scarred man kept pouring and drinking as if it had nothing to do with him.
I never even looked over.
Listening to the footsteps of the middle-aged man leaving, Mu Xin hesitated for a moment, then took out a brochure bag from his body and opened it, and soon found a note inside.
He unfolded the note with a slight shake. There was not much content, just a few dozen words. Mu Xin read it with a quick glance, but his face suddenly looked a little ugly.
"What's the matter, what are you asking me to do?" At this moment, the scarred man suddenly spoke.
Hearing this, Mu Xin raised his eyes and looked over, then forced a smile twice, "It's nothing, it's just a small task to send a message, but time is a bit tight."
"Really?" The scarred man shook the wine glass in his hand and put it back on the table. He turned his head and glanced over. "If you need me to take action, just ask."
Mu Xin fell silent and did not immediately respond. His eyes went back and forth on the note twice. He suddenly picked up the wine glass at hand and drank it down. Then he stood up and cupped his hands towards the scarred man:
"I will go ahead and make preparations. Please feel free to do so." After saying this, he hurried out of the private room without stopping.
There was no stopping Mu Xin from leaving, but after a while, the scarred man raised his hand casually. The note left on the table that had not been taken away floated up out of thin air and flew in front of the man.
, and soon a look of surprise appeared on his face.
Not long after, the man in front of Scar chuckled lightly, then flicked his finger, and a spark flew out. The note was instantly destroyed, but he continued to pour himself a drink.
It was dark at night, and in the upper room of a mid-level inn, Sun Huo was holding a copy of "Tea Ceremony Miscellanies" he bought during the day, sitting cross-legged on the bed and reading back and forth. This book was not his interest, and it was very interesting to read.
It was boring and boring, but Sun Huo still had the patience to do it. For no other reason, he wanted to use this as the beginning of his literary studies, and at the same time, he wanted to give Mu Xin a surprise the next time he saw him.
It’s also a little thought of regaining face.
"Dong dong dong" Suddenly there was a knock on the door outside, interrupting Sun Huo's thoughts. In fact, after he checked in, all the original guests in the inn disappeared one after another. It can be said that it was an empty inn.
.Although such changes were not deliberately perceived with spiritual thoughts, they could not escape his ears. Although he did not have to bother to guess which family had done this, he still came to call the door at this late night, which really made him
It feels very surprising, especially since he seems to be a buddy under the influence of spiritual thoughts.

"Sir, it's late at night. The shop has prepared a bird's nest and lily soup for you as a midnight snack. Please enjoy it."
"No, take it back."
Sun Huo narrowed his eyes and couldn't help but feel speechless. Such flattery was too deliberate and the timing was wrong. I really don't know what the person in charge was thinking.
"Sir, please accept it. If you carry it back like this, you won't get any good fruit."
Listening to the waiter's frightened begging for mercy, Sun Huo felt a little soft-hearted. It was just a deal between immortal cultivators, and unrelated mortals should not suffer unreasonable disasters. After hesitating, he asked the waiter to come in.
Seeing the waiter coming in with a wooden tray and placing the white porcelain cups on the wooden table, Sun Huo didn't see anything wrong. But after a while, he felt a little thirsty.
When he wanted to drink water, Sun Huo suddenly realized that he had made a big mistake. He stood up suddenly and struck forward with a palm strike.
The lid of the cup shattered, and Sun Huo was stunned when he took a closer look. He saw that there was indeed no bird's nest soup in the completely devoid of heat food cup. Instead, there was a tracking charm with a black cloud logo, and a
A piece of paper with the word "Kill the Mouth" written on it.
He never expected that Wu Yun would assign him a mission at this time, and it was an assassination mission without any reason. Annoyed by his negligence in allowing outsiders to get close easily, Sun Huo finally calmed down after a while.
He sighed, reluctantly and reluctantly, taking out the mask and putting it on his face, then quietly flew out of the window.
Because he could not get any information details about this mission, Sun Huo was extremely cautious. He used all his strength to hide himself and hold his breath, and followed the guidance of the tracking talisman. It took a long time to eat.
, he was surprised to find that the tracking talisman flew into a rather large mansion.
Because he did not pass through the main gate, Sun Huo had no way of telling which of the four families this place belonged to, but he was even more careful. Regardless of Wu Yun's reasons for wanting him to assassinate someone among them, he did not want to interact with Xiu Xian here.
Otherwise, even if you can escape on the spot, you will still be suspected later.
Relying on the cover of the night, coupled with his own martial arts and the spiritual sense of a cultivator, Sun Huo easily avoided several sentries and night patrol servants along the way, and rushed straight to an independent small building in the backyard. p>
Here, he could feel that although the surrounding sentries were sparse, the people inside were breathing calmly and were not ordinary guards. It could be seen that important people did live in the tightly guarded building. Looking around, Sun Huo happened to find that not far away
There was a tall tree, and after a brief thought, I jumped onto it.
Sun Huo could look directly at the small building without being blocked by the courtyard wall. He saw that the door to the main hall was wide open, and sitting on the main seat was a middle-aged man in plain clothes and a gray beard, closing his eyes and concentrating.
.After seeing the man's appearance clearly, Sun Huo couldn't help but trembled all over, and his palms holding the tree instantly dug deeply into the branches.
