“Friend Xu, what’s wrong?”

Chi Feiyan, noticing Xu Mu’s strange expression, inquired.

“Uh? No, nothing!”

Xu Mu laughed it off, covering it up quickly.

“By the way, Friend Chi, do you know when the Luo Family went to Cui Ling Market?”

“Friend Xu, why are you so concerned about the Luo Family?”

“Just curious!”

“Probably about a month ago!”

“Oh!”

A month ago, which was around four months after he arrived at Liyang City.

Xu Mu prayed silently in his heart.

Four months have passed, the Luo Family should not have encountered those magic artifacts!

Even if they did encounter them!

They might not be able to recognize them!

Even if they recognized it!

After so much time had passed, they should not be able to find him!

After all, he had changed his appearance and physique many times!

Considering the time that had passed, finding him would be like finding a needle in a haystack, if not outright impossible.

Theoretically, things seemed perfect, but Xu Mu still felt uneasy!

“Forget it, I’ll save the Luck Value I have recently gained for now, in case any unforeseen circumstances arise.”

Xu Mu thought in his heart.

Two months later…

Cui Ling Market

Surrounded by mountains, everything was a dull yellow.

As winter approached, fewer and fewer cultivators entered the forest.

The once bustling marketplace seemed a bit deserted.

At the Luo Family mansion…

The carved beams and painted rafters, pavilions, and terraces, the continuous stream of servants coming and going, although recently built, already exhibited the grandeur of a Foundation Establishment Family.

Father!

Luo Hun looked serious, and with several subordinates, he brought a frightened Loose Cultivator into the hall.

Luo Lie, wearing a dark green robe, was sitting at the top, as if he had been waiting. Two pretty maidservants were standing behind him, and there was tea with a thin fog on the table.

Compared to his time in White River City, Luo Lie looked much younger due to his breakthrough in cultivation.

“Only found him?”

Luo Lie still closed his eyes, exuding a stable aura.

“Child is incompetent, as time has passed too long, only he could be traced!” Luo Hun confessed guiltily.

“No problem! Having only him is enough!” Luo Lie replied in a calm tone.

Feeling Luo Lie’s atmosphere of the Foundation Establishment stage, the Loose Cultivator that was brought in fell to his knees out of fright.

“Please spare me! I really did not know that was a magic artifact of the Luo Family!”

“I ask, you answer.”

Luo Lie slowly opened his eyes, his pupils were not the typical black of a human, but a pair of dark green vertical pupils, similar to a snake, yet they bore no coldness, instead exuding an aura of majesty.

“Yes! Yes!

The Loose Cultivator nodded repeatedly.

“When did you buy that magic artifact?”

“Around… around six to seven months ago!”

“I need an exact time!

“Seven and a half months! Yes, it was seven and a half months ago!”

The Loose Cultivator’s face turned pale and he nodded furiously.

“Do you still remember what he looks like?”

Luo Lie’s Divine Intent extended out, enveloping the man.

“No, I, I remember!”

Cold sweat began forming on the Loose Cultivator’s face.

“Remember or not?”

Luo Lie frowned, a transparent green python with a single horn, suddenly appeared behind him, fixating its gaze on the Loose Cultivator.

“I remember! I remember!

The Loose Cultivator laid on the ground, trembling all over.

Unless one has actually experienced the gulf of power difference between them, one cannot truly comprehend the disparity.

It’s pretty much equivalent to a domestic dog facing a tiger.

“Just remember him, and now, picture him in your mind.”

“Huh? Oh!

Although he didn’t understand the other’s intention, the loose cultivator still obeyed and desperately tried to recall. However, too much time had passed, and no matter how hard he tried, he only had a vague impression.

Just as he was considering that if he was asked, he would make things up, the single-horned green python suddenly pounced on him and penetrated into his body.

“Ahhhh!”

The loose cultivator let out a terrible scream, his body unconsciously stood up, trembling all over, and the next moment, he suddenly collapsed to the ground, soon lost his breath.

Witnessing this scene, Luo Hun, who was standing on the side, didn’t react much, apart from his newly recruited subordinates who were shaking slightly.

Whoosh!

The next moment, the single-horned green python flew out of the loose cultivator’s body and returned to Luo Lie.

Luo Lie closed his eyes and after a moment, his brows furrowed slightly.

At this moment, Luo Hun hurriedly stepped forward and asked, “Father, did you see the specific features of that person?”

“Just like the previous ones, it’s very vague and obviously different!”

Luo Hun opened his eyes, his pupils returned to their normal pitch black.

“What should we do? Damn it! Are we just going to let that little thief run rampant?”

Luo Hun gritted his teeth in anger.

According to the timeline, the other party had almost arrived at the Liyang Sect right after they did.

This meant that the other party had always been under their watch, yet their previous painstaking search yielded nothing, not even a single hair from the other party.

Fortunately, they were assigned to manage Cui Ling Market this time, otherwise the other party would truly have no worries at all.

However, now, they seemed to have no way to deal with him.

Too much time had passed, and it was too difficult to find him based on just the few magic artifacts.

Moreover, the other party was extremely careful in his actions, constantly changing his appearance. Even when he sold items, he was very secretive and left no clues.

“He killed my grandson! He destroyed the foundation of the Luo Family! I cannot spare him!”

Luo Lie’s eyes were as cold as snakes and scorpions, as if he was about to attack someone.

Although the Heavenly Tribulation Vine had allowed the Luo family to escape from the crisis of decline, if the other party hadn’t killed Luo Xu, they might have had more choices.

Like using it himself for instance!

Regardless of sentiment or reason, he had to find the other party and slaughter him.

“But we have no clues right now, how are we going to find him?”

They had seized all the people who had bought the magic artifacts and interrogated them harshly, but the obtained information was all useless.

“Who said we don’t have clues!” Luo Lie coldly said.

Luo Hun didn’t understand Luo Lie’s meaning.

“Time is the best clue.” Luo Lie indifferently said.

Luo Hun’s eyes suddenly brightened, but then dimmed again quickly.

“Father, there are quite a few people who came from White Stone Market during that time period, and the other party has changed his shape and appearance. Even if we start with household registration, it’s hard to find anything useful!”

There was something Luo Hun didn’t say, that is, if you could find it by checking, they would have captured the other party in White Stone Market long ago.

It was clear that the person had a way to change his appearance and hide his cultivation, leaving them no way to start.

“Why do we have to check one by one?”

Luo Lie glanced at Luo Hun indifferently.

“Uh?”

Luo Hun was somewhat dumbfounded by the question.

If not checking one by one, would they be checking in groups?

“Kill them! All the cultivators who came from White River City during that time should be killed! I don’t believe he can still hide!”

Luo Lie’s tone was calm, but it sent a chill down the spine of the few people present.

Even Luo Hun was shocked, not expecting his father to be so ruthless.

His father really hated that person—

He hated him to the bone!

However, although the method was a bit cruel, it indeed was the best way.

Previously in Baihe Market, they had their family restraint, so they didn’t dare to go too far, but no one was restraining them here.

Moreover, compared to the situation in White River City, the difficulty now was much less. There were at most one or two hundred targets, and given their current status, they could easily kill them one by one without alerting anyone.

Whenever the other party resists, he is bound to give himself away.

If none of these people is him, what will they do?

Then, they could only blame themselves for being unlucky!

“Father, I understand! I’ll do it now, and make sure no one detects our Luo family!”

Luo Hun’s eyes gradually began to look fierce.

“Hmm!

Luo Lie nodded.

“Remember, before making a move each time, first gather information about the person.. If anything unusual is discovered, I will take action personally! My Beast Soul has just advanced into a python, and it needs to devour soul power!”
