Chapter 250: Jiangnan Xiao Family Banquet
Lin Keqing's spiritual body arrived at the entrance of the base, only to discover that the base was enveloped in a huge sky blue inverted bowl shaped formation. If forcibly penetrated, it would not only alarm the person in charge of setting up the formation, but could also create a loophole in the formation, posing a hidden danger to the safety of the base.
After careful observation, she found that the technique of setting up the formation was very similar to that of Wen Fei, and speculated that it might have been set up by Wen Daoren. So she took out the purple wood token from Shu Mountain and pasted it on the formation screen, easily crossing over.
At this moment, Zihuang was facing a huge test. This was the first task assigned to him by Lin Keqing. If he failed, what face would he have to face her again in the future
He calmed down and carefully sensed the moss, realizing that they were absorbing his energy. So he put away his ability, and the moss was like an ant that had suddenly lost its target, like sticky juice flowing through his body.
This movement was like a crack in the tightly sealed vacuum wrap, and he suddenly felt much relieved.
So he controlled the Phoenix Fire to raise his body temperature, causing the moss to curl up like plastic cloth and emit a pungent odor. However, the moss's reproductive ability was extremely strong, much faster than his ability to recover, and it was very sticky for a while.
The bacteriologist was worried that he would break free, so he walked over with a knife and pointed at him, saying, "I originally wanted to keep you as a live sample, but now it seems that I can't keep you anymore
As time passed, Purple Phoenix felt that the power of moss was gradually weakening, and she only needed to delay a little longer to no longer be constrained. So she lifted her head high, with a mysterious expression, and said, "There's something you can try
Seeing his confident and determined appearance, the bacteriologist suspected that he had a backstop and dared not approach him. He turned around and left, and after a while, he brought a huge stone over. This way, we can smash him to death without getting close to him.
Purple Phoenix: ""
The stone weighs over 100 pounds, and it is also difficult for the bacterial person to lift it. When there were still three or four steps away from the Purple Phoenix, they lifted the stone high.
Just as she was about to smash it, the aura on Purple Phoenix suddenly surged, releasing the power compressed inside her body. Purple Fire "bang" exploded the moss attached to her skin.
Moss emitted a strange odor and disappeared directly into the air, leaving no dust behind.
The purple flames burned fiercely, protecting only the Purple Phoenix. He regained his freedom and flew like the wind to the playground outside with a whoosh.
The playground is the size of a football field, and the cement floor is very clean. There are many uniquely shaped green haired statues neatly arranged on the track. Some are lying on the ground like they are seriously ill and dying, some are hunched over, and some are roaring up to the sky. Their expressions are fierce and lifelike, just like real people.
Purple Phoenix felt that it was an evil sect and decided to fight and resolve it quickly. Extend your left hand horizontally, and the purple flame turns into a round bow. Pull your right hand, and the purple flame turns into a rocket, aiming at the bacterial person.
The germ person laughed fearlessly and said, "Haha, you are truly a superhuman, much more interesting than ordinary people
Purple Phoenix saw that he was fearless and worried that there were still dangers here that she didn't know existed. She hesitated whether to kill him and continue the in-depth investigation, or to immediately go back and report to Lin Keqing.
But before he could make a decision, the bacterial man slapped his chin three times.
The surrounding statues were awakened, surrounding the Purple Phoenix in clusters.
The bacterial man also turned into a green haired monster and danced with exaggerated movements. With his movements, the entire school trembled, as if there was something huge hidden underground.
Zihuang felt that the dance here was like the sacrificial dance mentioned in history books. With his movements, her body itched and green hair seemed to be growing.
A good man doesn't suffer immediate losses.
He decisively crushed the teleportation talisman.
As soon as Lin Keqing walked out of the base, the air around her rippled and the Purple Phoenix hit her like a cannonball.
Zihuang climbed up from the ground and saw Lin Keqing. She exclaimed excitedly, "Sister Lin," and only then did she explain the situation to her in detail with excitement. "That bacterial person is too wicked. His dancing has made me feel uneasy until now, and I don't know if he's the one who harmed your friend
Based on his description, Lin Keqing can confirm that the disappearing "moss" is the culprit behind the death of Xiao Jie's father.
If it were before, she would not hesitate to kill the germ person, but after learning that there were cultivators in Jiangnan, she decided to hold her fire for now. After investigating thoroughly, she would lead the cultivators over to investigate the truth.
At this moment, it started to rain and the air became polluted and extremely cold. Lin Keqing said, "Let's go back first." Just as he was about to turn around, he suddenly noticed something wriggling on Zihuang's body.
At this moment, her vision was comparable to a microscope, but she still couldn't see what it was. She released a trace of spiritual power to catch it and discovered that it was a type of insect egg similar to microorganisms.
Purple Phoenix saw her movements but couldn't see what was in her hand. She guessed it was bacteria, and as soon as she thought she still had this kind of thing on her, her scalp tingled and she said, "What is it
Lin Keqing put it into the crystal bottle and said calmly, "It may be the bacteria you mentioned
There are all sorts of strange abilities, and it's not surprising to have bacterial abilities.
Lin Keqing listened to his description, saying that bacteria can be superhumans, but he also felt that things were not that simple.
Rainstorm poured down.
Making the floods in Jiangnan even more severe, all superhumans were summoned to clear the river channels. However, in the face of nature, manpower was only a drop in the bucket, and the river water still overflowed the riverbank, flooding large areas of the base.
For some reason, the temperature suddenly dropped to minus twenty degrees Celsius, causing the riverbank to freeze and blocking the flood. However, half of the base turned into an ice field, causing panic among the people inside. The streets were deserted and desolate.
In the afternoon, as the rain slightly subsided, Lin Keqing was worried that the cooling would be affected by the cold current in the East China Sea and that it would continue to cool down. Therefore, he no longer waited and took his people to the accommodation arranged by Xiao Teng for them.
This is a beautiful mansion, coincidentally not far from Li Renjie's mansion. She also learned that the mansion next door, where there are cultivators, belongs to one of the four major families in Jiangnan, the "He family".
The news of Li Renjie's estate being bloodied yesterday has spread throughout the Jiangnan base, and many people who hold a wait-and-see attitude have become wary of Lin Keqing's influence, and have handed over invitations. Lin Keqing only accepted the banquet invitation from the Xiao family.
In the evening, she came to the Xiao family with Strict.
The ancestral home of the Xiao family covers a vast area with beautiful scenery, white walls and red tiles, full of the elegance and ancient charm of Jiangnan gardens.
In my past life, I was blown up by a bomb by Lin Keqing.
The venue for the banquet is a magnificent villa in the garden.
Champagne wine, dazzling lights, guests dressed in exquisite clothing pushing glasses and holding lamps, laughing and laughing, without any sense of urgency for the end of the world.
When Lin Keqing and Strictly appeared, everyone who was chatting suddenly stopped moving, and the scene was silent except for the sound of dance music.
Strictly young and handsome, wearing a white shirt and a finely crafted tailcoat, elegant and refined, with graceful behavior.
Lin Keqing's face is stunning, with exquisite makeup on. She is wearing a purple off shoulder evening gown, with skin that is as delicate as snow and a graceful figure. Her waist length long hair is like seaweed, neatly attached to her back. She wears a platinum studded crown on her head, shining brightly and stunning the whole audience.
There are all upper class people here. After a brief silence, normal communication quickly resumed and they understood their identities. They all came up to say hello.
After the apocalypse, the power circle of the Jiangnan base was repeatedly purged, and the power struggle reached a critical moment, causing internal and external troubles for the Xiao family. Xiao Teng believes that this is not the best time for strict return, so strict today's identity is the leader of the Wolf Warrior.
The Xiao family is very traditional, with separate parties for men and women. Lin Keqing was led to the female guest area, where she was beautiful in appearance and cold in temperament, which made people hesitate. Several people wanted to say hello to her, but they didn't have the courage to step forward.
Uncle Xiao was entertaining guests when he saw her alone and walked over, saying kindly, "Miss Lin, the dinner party won't start for a while. If you want to rest or change clothes, you can come with me
Lin Keqing knew he was helping himself out, so he smiled gratefully and said, "Thank you, Uncle Xiao
She was taken to the guest room on the third floor of the villa, with the french window facing the vast private garden of the Xiao family.
The lights dim, the curtains intoxicate, and the winding corridors and terraces present a grand and aristocratic style.
The main purpose of coming to Xiao's house today is to meet his strict mother and get to know her.
I can't help thinking of my own mother when I think of the excitement of dancing when talking about his mother strictly. She took out the communication token given to her by the old monk, but there was no response. It was strange that he had promised to come and see her mother as soon as they arrived at the Jiangnan base, but it had been a whole day and he hadn't appeared.
Lin Keqing stood by the window and suddenly saw a familiar figure flash past in the garden corridor, but she would never mistake it for Xiao Peng
He was avoiding the crowd and arrived at a secluded small courtyard behind the villa.
There is a slender and noble young woman waiting for someone there.
The young woman was very surprised when she saw him, and then suddenly raised her hand and slapped Xiao Peng's handsome face.
Xiao Peng didn't dodge or dodge, and he was slapped hard.
The young woman still couldn't relieve her anger and smoked more than ten times in a row until her face turned red and purple, and blood flowed from the corners of her mouth before stopping.
But that wasn't because she was soft hearted, but because she was feeling unwell and exerting too much force, getting tired from the beating.
Xiao Peng's eyes were filled with worry, as if saying things like 'Don't get angry, be careful of your health'.
The distance was too far, and Lin Keqing couldn't hear their conversation clearly. She was very surprised to see this scene. Xiao Peng, whom she knew, was very chauvinistic and had a strong sense of self-esteem. Not only was he beaten by a woman, but even if he gave him a slightly disrespectful look, he would probably retaliate.
Lin Keqing had an infinite curiosity about this woman, but unfortunately she was wearing a black and red hat and couldn't see her appearance clearly. She was far away and her voice was faint and hard to hear. This was the center of Nanzhou, and who knew if there might be cultivators hidden. She didn't dare to release her consciousness, so she could only open the window and try to stretch out her ears.
The young woman's voice was gentle like spring in the cold wind, and her tone was angry as she said, "Xiao Peng, you deserve to die
Xiao Peng didn't argue or get angry, and nodded seriously, saying, "Yes. If I die to make you happy, I will not hesitate to die
The young woman sneered and said, "Even if you die a hundred times, you can't even compare to a single strand of my daughter's hair
Xiao Peng said bitterly, "Yes, what am I in your heart? It's just a dog incident that has already happened. If you still don't get angry, I can use my life to offset it
The young woman said, "You're not afraid of death, and I'm also afraid of getting my hands dirty. At this point, one solution is to kill Xiao Wanshu
Xiao Peng seemed to muster great courage, shook his head and refused, saying, "Impossible, she's my daughter." He closed his eyes and said sadly, "Yuying, as long as I don't kill Wanshu, I can do anything
The young woman, whom he called Yuying, remained unmoved and said, "Blood debts are repaid with blood, there is no room for negotiation
After a moment of silence, Xiao Peng put away the despair on his face and said, "I'm sorry for you. If you want to kill or cut, you can do as you please, but you can't harm my children
The young woman smiled despairingly and said, "Xiao Peng, you are too ridiculous. I am not discussing with you, but notifying you that within three days, if you do not bring Xiao Wanshu's head to me, then your whole family should prepare to bury my daughter
