"You sure you don't want to wait until Liena comes?" Pei Xi tried to convince.
It was not that he wanted to hold Xie Ruo back, but Mei Liena's hard-hitting character was extremely difficult to talk to. Mei Liena was already very excited coming, she would go berserk if she did not find Xie Ruo.
Unfortunately, Xie Ruo did not think that way and instead said, "He won't be a problem." Because he thought Mei Liena should be more mature than him.
Xie Ruo put on the mask Qu Xuanzi gave him, then rode on the horse he had prepared. Too bad the charcoal— horse Xie Ruo— is not with him and relax in the Xie Clan. If anything, he did not have to worry that the trip would take a lot of time until he had to rush. The problems he had to face were not few.
"I'm leaving." Xie Ruo smiled, then spurred on his horse quickly.
Li Ningzhi on the other hand saw the departure of Xie Ruo. He's speechless. What about the boy?
Li Ningzhi hurriedly searched for Xiao Caihong, but was nowhere to be found. Although he did not need to worry, but Xie Ruo had left alone which made him have to teach the boy a little lesson.
But as long as he searched, the boy was nowhere to be found. It can't be disappearing, can it? Must be asa somewhere.
A few hours after Xie Ruo's departure, Mei Liena arrived at the clan. He spurred his horse so fast that it broke through the gate just like that and got off the horse when the green animal entered the hall and neighed.
Pei Xi was not surprised, just sighed. Zhou Kui shook his head. Every time she came, Mei Liena always broke through the gates and halls using her finished horse.
"Where is Ruoruo?" Mei Liena immediately urged, approaching the two of them excitedly.
But Zhou Kui's reply broke his spirit. "He's gone."
Mei Liena's smile froze. He looked at the two of them deeply, then pointed at them in turn. "So look at a lie!"
Mei Liena left just like that after eliminating the green horse that came from her magic. He searched around the sect, the entire ins and outs of the sect while shouting to call out to him. He could not believe Xie Ruo had just left without seeing him.
Other than Mei Liena, there was Li Ningzhi who was also looking for a baby boy. Seeing Mei Liena, Li Ningzhi nenghampiri intended to ask.
"Miss, what's Miss—"
Bukkk
Li Ningzhi had barely fallen because of Mei Liena's unwillingness to ignore her. Li Ningzhi was sure the woman was deliberately making things difficult for him. If not for Mei Liena being considered a younger sister by Pei Xi and Zhou Kui, he had already taught her a lesson.
Out of annoyance, Li Ningzhi chose to forget the prodigal son. He doesn't care anymore.
When intending to go to her room to rest, Mei Liena flashed again and crashed into her until she completely fell down.
Bukkk
Byurrrs
Li Ningzhi splashed into a small pond beside him due to the impact of Xie Ruo. He felt very anxious to scream so.
"Damn it!" Li Ningzhi groaned in annoyance. He looked at Mei Liena who paused for a moment, without thinking of anything then continued the search without guilt. It had exactly made Li Ningzhi curse the woman to seven derivatives!
Arriving at the hall again, Mei Liena looked at the two men who were playing chess with dark faces. "Why not stop it until I get back?"
"Do you think anyone can stop him?" Pei Xi calmly replied.
"You guys!" Mei Liena was very upset. He snorted and left without hearing any explanation. It's all their fault!
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
If you think about it before, Canghai City that is easily forgotten is a boring region even though the noble life there is quite glamorous filled with treasures and entertainment. But now, when Xie Ruo saw it in person, Canghai City could be called the 'Las Vegas' of this world.
It is no secret that Las Vegas is a gambling city with a variety of expensive and luxurious casinos standing and operating without restraints. It is the favorite city of most young people.
Just like now, Canghai City was filled with entertainment. There are many casinos and brothels filled with people both from out of town and native folk. Most of them are men. Holding some beautiful and drunk women. Beautiful women work to serve the men willingly, some who participate in gambling and partying.
Seeing this, Xie Ruo felt that his life was filled with noise. He did not like parties, did not like crowds, only liked peace like in Tianshang City.
Due to his arrival for the task, Xie Ruo had no other choice. He entered an inconspicuous inn.
Her masked face did not disguise her beauty even though her identity was not recognized. Although he used plain clothes with neutral colors, it still became the attraction of the men in the inn.
He ordered a room, then paid for it. The innkeeper escorted him to the second floor, but as he was about to leave, a man came from the second floor and looked at him with a disturbing look.
Xie Ruo did not care. He had just stepped onto the steps, the man held back his arm making Xie Ruo's steps come to a halt. All right, his face brings trouble.
"This pretty lady, how do I handle you?" The man smilingly looked at Xie Ruo. His luxurious clothes showed that he was a noble.
Xie Ruo only judged in silence without saying anything. It caused the atmosphere to become awkward. The man chuckled, then spoke in a more relaxed tone.
"It looks like Miss is not from here. If there's anything, you can tell me. My family is the richest family in Canghai, there is nothing we do not have, not even heavenly treasures. If there is time, Miss can come and stay in the Shi Family Residence. My name is Shi Wei, what about Miss?"
Shi Wei .. Based on the information he heard, Shi Wei was the Young Master of the Shi Family, the richest family in this place. They open casino businesses in various places as their income. It is natural to have many treasures.
But Xie Ruo did not want to deal with influential families or the like. He wanted to solve it himself, find the source of the poison and spread it.
But for now, he had to solve one troublesome problem.
"If Miss is too shy to ask, I can help." Shi Wei raised Xie Ruo's palm, about to kiss the back of the snow-white hand.
However Xie Ruo pulled his arm. He smiled, a smile that made Shi Wei the hottest. Xie Ruo grabbed onto Shi Wei's shoulder with a gentle gesture making the man excited.
"There's no need to rush, because I'd rather play pull-out." Right after saying so, Xie Ruo gripped Shi Wei's shoulder until his bones shifted.
Shi Wei was shocked in pain, he glared sharply at Xie Ruo and was about to say something to threaten him, yet Xie Ruo gave no chance and turned him back and slammed him to the floor.
"It looks like my pull is a little outrageous. Young Master is fine, isn't he?" Xie Ruo looked at the man who had kissed the floor behind him. He smiled sinisterly, then went to the second floor.
Shi Wei groaned in annoyance and was about to stand up, but his body crumbled from the dings to the point of not being able to stand up straight. His people immediately cleared up, Shi Wei looked at Xie Ruo's departure in anger.
"Basic jal*ng! You don't know what's good for you! The Shi family will not let you!"
Xie Ruo ignored that insignificant shout. Who told you to interrupt his trip? It seemed, her disguise this time should be deepened, including disguising her beauty.
Closing the room door, Xie Ruo sighed. "So pretty turns out to be troublesome."
Xie Ruo walked towards the dressing table, looking at himself in the mirror meticulously. He took off the mask, then took another breath.
He took all the makeup from inside the space ring. Although he never gave—because he was lazy, he still had a makeup tool given by his little friend in the Holy Tower. This time, he used it for the first time.
All right, now's the time to 'damage the face' well. He rubs randomly to look ugly, then makes his skin mature and dirty to look like homeless who often bask in the sun. Plus, acne makeup was everywhere until her face got uglier.
Looking at the mirror, he frowned. "I'm like going back in time." This feeling felt very precise when he blinded his face into ugly using the servant makeup to hide from Huai Mao's attention.
Now, she's really getting ugly because of the weird makeup. Wear a mask to disguise the aura.
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
The moon shines brightly with the stars at night. The silver light flashed in the darkness, looking like a shadow that fused with the night light flames installed in the middle of the road.
He arrived in front of a dilapidated house without lighting. According to the information he got while eavesdropping at the restaurant, the real 'disease' victim was poison in this place. She was a woman, the Madam of the Shi Family and was the stepmother of the man she had slammed earlier.
Xie Ruo did not care what their relationship was. He just wanted to check his body at this moment.
The body of the woman named Lan Xuanyi was not buried because no one dared to, fearing that the disease was contagious. Due to the rumor Lan Xuanyi was suffering from an incurable infectious disease, even her own daughter had to part with her. This condition was the same as Zhong Xiaorong's mother.
He kicked the front door of the house smpai destroyed. It was because the front door could not be opened, and he could not waste time just pushing the door that was a tiger. After all, he would bring Lan Xuanyi's corpse to research.
Entering the dilapidated house, he found a clean-looking coffin in the middle of the main room. There was a girl beside the coffin, Xue Ruo thought it should be Lan Xuanyi's daughter, Shi Yang.
The girl looked to be 18 years old, her clothes shabby and blank-sighted while cleaning her mother's coffin. When he heard the voice of someone who came, he immediately stopped the activity and sat beside the chest facing the person who came.
"You must have come to bury him, right? Please, do it quickly. I can't do it alone, please help me." Shi Yang spoke in a hoarse tone. For days his mother died, but was not given a proper funeral. Even the corpse had already rotted away because it was not taken care of. He can feel it.
Xie Ruo frowned. He crouched down before Shi Yang, and looked at that blank look. Sure enough, no one said that Lan Xuanyi's daughter was blind. But, how did he get in here? Did someone help him through another road?
"Miss, sir, or whoever it is .. I'll do whatever you ask for!"
Xie Ruo smiled. "really? What can you do?"
Shi Yang calmed down after realizing the one before him was a woman. However, it is far from free. Who knew the woman in front of him was actually Shi's residence stooge?
"Tell me what you need, money or whatever it is, I'll give it to you."
"Unfortunately, I'm not short of money."
"Then, what does Miss want?"
Xie Ruo looked towards the wooden crate, then said, "What's with your mother, are you going to allow it?"
"My mom ... What does she have?" Shi Yang frowned. No one dared to approach her mother, why was this woman so blatant?
"Something is important. If you let me take it and examine it, I will properly bury it and make a prayer altar. Sure, this is a deal. Since she's your mother, I need permission. Otherwise, I can only take it by force and forget about you."
Shi Yang was surprised. Checking on someone who was dead was an insult, he could not let it. Moreover, his mother would definitely be more tormented. He also did not know what the motive of the woman was.
His first impression of this woman was bad. Even if he is blind, he is not stupid. He had just lost his mother, but this woman had asked him to be examined. Does his mother want to be used as an experiment?
"That's .. I can't." Shi Yang was straight to the point.
"You dare?" Xie Ruo spoke in a defiant tone.
"The new book died, I can't let it be tainted. Even though you're a woman, still, examining a recently deceased corpse is an insult."
Xie Ruo snorted. "So, what if he's dead? I'm just checking, no other intentions."
"Aren't you afraid of getting infected?" Shi Yang tried to find another way.
"Terticular?" Xie Ruo chuckled, then approached the sealed coffin. "How can a poison infect a person? Unless his body or blood contains poison, maybe I can get the same 'disease."
"Poisons?" Shi Yang was surprised. Even though he had thought about this, it was still hard to believe. What poison could cause someone to die like that?
"The world is very broad. I see you are quite wary, but your abilities are limited due to being too self-closing. I'm telling you because you can't see, but that doesn't mean you can only be confined to one place without a purpose. That sucks."
Xie Ruo's gaze dimmed. Shi Yang's condition was very similar to his in the past. He was once confined, shown the death of a loved one and disposed of inappropriately, and was also emptied for a long time because of the five dead senses.
"It's none of your business." Shi Yang spoke in a low tone.
"You are none of my business. But the cause of your mother's death is my business. I can promise you, to keep it intact and properly buried. I'm not someone who promises."
Shi Yang clenched his fists. Even if she doesn't like it, what if what she says is true? But what if it's wrong? He did not want to trust someone new.
After bouncing his heart for a while, he finally let out a sigh of resignation. If you think about it, it seems like the power of the woman is far above it even though it is not felt.
A person who dared to speak like that, could not possibly be weak. Surely the woman hid her strength, deliberately making herself seem weak. Shi Yang did not want to look for trouble with such a person and could only nod.
"Well, but you have to keep your word, or I'll fight you myself." There was a chill within Shi Yang's tone of voice, yet it made Xie Ruo's smile bloom.
"I'll make sure."
"Also, you have to do it by hiding. Tomorrow my dad will come check, if Mom disappears, he'll be suspicious."
"I've thought about it, replacing your mother with an illusion is no big deal." Xie Ruo had already prepared it from the very beginning. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to recklessly smash through the main door.
"Then, I want to ask you something, what's the objection?" Shi Yang was somewhat doubtful. But he has no other choice.
"Say!" Xie Ruo leaned back calmly listening to what the poor girl was going to say.
"If you can teach a lesson to the culprit and the Shi Family, I will owe you a debt of gratitude and obey all your wishes."
Xie Ruo looked at Shi Yang briefly making the girl somewhat doubtful, thinking the woman he still did not know disagreed.
Xie Ruo walked over, then spoke in a low tone but filled with pressure. "I'd rather you don't use my hand for revenge."
"Can I? With my situation like this?" Shi Yang was not confident. He was blind, what could he do?
Xie Ruo narrowed his eyes, smiling at the pink aura wandering around Shi Yang as if enveloping him. "You can. As long as you know, blind isn't entirely troublesome."
