After returning to the hall, Li Chen did not leave immediately. Instead, he asked for a jug of wine and drank it for a while before turning around to leave. Not long after Li Chen left, the entire brothel exploded. The grandson of the Xiao family's Great Elder died here. The consequences could be imagined. This brothel would probably be completely destroyed by the Great Elder's anger.
However, this didn't matter to Li Chen. After he returned to his room, Li Chen started to refine his Dou Qi. His Dou Qi continued to rise. Desolate Ning was a Dou Qi Stage 8 warrior. Even though the amount of Dou Qi had been reduced because of the North Deep's purification, it would still improve Li Chen's strength by a lot.
"Looks like it's still not enough."
After a while, Li Chen gently opened his eyes. His current strength had reached the peak of Stage Seven. As long as he absorbed another person or cultivated for a period of time, he could advance. However, Li Chen knew that it was not suitable for him to attack now, or else there would be problems.
。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。
The next day, the entire Wu Tan City was in an uproar. The people of the Xiao clan were searching everywhere. The Great Elder had already gone completely crazy. In order to find the murderer, he did not hesitate to search the entire Wu Tan City. However, after all, he was not the only one in this place, so he still encountered unexpected obstacles.
Sure enough, the brothel disappeared the next day. As long as there were any suspects, they were taken away. However, there were still many people like Li Chen. It was impossible for him to find them all. Wu Tan City was so big, and the most important thing was that he was not the one in charge of the Xiao family.
After a few days of peace, Little Six suddenly came to Li Chen's side.
"How has Li Chen been recently? Has your strength increased?"
"Did something happen?”Hearing this, Li Chen thought to himself, but he still said,"My strength has increased a lot, and I'm about to reach Stage 5 Dou Qi.”
Li Chen wasn't afraid of others suspecting him. After all, Desolate Ning was at Stage 8. It was impossible. However, Little Six was still shocked. He remembered that Li Chen was at Stage 3 when he first arrived. It hadn't been long, but he had already advanced two stages. It was obviously not logical.
Seeing Little Six's shocked expression, Li Chen said indifferently,""Actually, I was already at Stage Four before I came.。。。。Some things are not convenient to talk about…。。”
Hearing Li Chen's words, Little Six didn't continue to ask, as if Li Chen's words were a matter of course. Then, he continued,"There's news from the family. Because of the death of young master Desolate Ning, the family needs to strengthen their training. Those with potential can go back.”
Li Chen's heart instantly became excited. Although he could still increase his strength here, the risk was too great. It would be different when he returned to the family. Li Chen could choose to attack people from other families, and the risk would be much lower.
As if he saw Li Chen's excitement, Little Six continued,""You can go back now, but I'll have to take care of you in the future. As for who to report to, you know.”
Li Chen nodded and turned around to return to his room. As Li Chen didn't have many things, he casually packed up and left the market for the Xiao family. As for the Xiao brothers, Li Chen didn't greet them.
Little Six's attitude was completely understandable. Li Chen was already at Stage Five Warrior Power at this age. If he could improve further, he would be a captain in the future. That was why he was so polite.
"It seems that I can get whatever I want.”Looking at the imposing Xiao family in front of him, Li Chen thought to himself.
After returning, Li Chen had already planned to slowly get to know Xiao Xun Er. After all, it was good to leave an impression first. Moreover, Li Chen had never forgotten about the side mission. Most of the plot happened here. It was not bad to occasionally torture Xiao Yan, but this still needed a limit.
If Yao Lao was provoked, Li Chen would still not be a match for him. However, it would not be a problem if he was injured. After all, Yao Lao would think that this was a form of training for Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan, this idiot, had a very strong self-esteem and would definitely not say anything.
After returning to his original residence, Li Chen went out directly. With such a big thing happening, Li Chen also needed to investigate the situation.
Sure enough, the Xiao family had become nervous. After all, only the Xiao family had died. They would definitely think that someone was targeting them. Moreover, the person who died was Desolate Ning, who had great potential. This made people feel even more strange.
After walking around the Xiao family, Li Chen went to Butler Xiao's place to report. It was very smooth. After knowing Li Chen's strength, Butler Xiao was very polite. He said that his choice was not wrong, but it was obviously a lie. However, Li Chen didn't bother to expose him. Such a person was still useful.
"There are still too few Dou Techniques nowadays.”Li Chen thought helplessly.
During this time, Li Chen also went to the ring space, but he still couldn't open the second page. Li Chen knew that the Plum Splitting Hand was too powerful and couldn't be used easily. He had to choose an ordinary Dou Technique to cover it up, because he had just learned from Butler Xiao that this batch of trainees could choose a Mid Yellow Class Dou Technique.
Holding the token from Butler Xiao, Li Chen walked towards the library. Along the way, many people had the same goal as Li Chen. This time, the Xiao family had indeed invested a lot to nurture the younger generation.
They didn't go through a strict examination. They passed after looking at the token. The interior was decorated with antiques and filled with bookshelves. On them were so-called fighting techniques, but their power wasn't very good.
"Look, it's Miss Xun Er."
"That's right, I never expected to meet Miss Xun Er here.”
"Keep your voice down, don't disturb Miss Xun Er from reading.”
A few people were discussing among themselves. Li Chen also looked over. Xiao Xun 'er was standing gracefully in front of the bookshelf and reading a book, not affected at all.
That aura that floated out of the world made people feel very comfortable. Her perfect facial features and her well-developed body formed a beautiful picture. However, there was no one around. These people were too servile. No one dared to stand beside Xiao Xun 'er.
Li Chen smiled slightly and walked forward. Seeing Li Chen's actions, the surrounding people were very surprised. They looked at Li Chen with a somewhat unfriendly gaze, but they did not say anything.
Li Chen stood beside Xiao Xun 'er and casually picked up a book.""Yellow Rank Middle Level Dou Technique: Splitting Wave Palm. When trained to the great success stage, one can release two streams of energy to split the river water.“
However, Li Chen didn't really care about the cultivation technique. As long as it could be concealed, it would be fine. However, Li Chen was more concerned about Xiao Xun 'er, who was beside him. A wave of elegant body fragrance entered Li Chen's nose along with the air. However, it seemed that there was an additional person beside him. Xiao Xun' er raised her head and looked at him strangely.
"This person…" Xiao Xun 'er only glanced at Li Chen once before she froze and did not look away. Li Chen also looked at Xiao Xun' er indifferently.
Looking at her beautiful face up close, it was even more pleasing to the eye. However, Li Chen still noticed that a golden light flashed in Xiao Xun 'er's beautiful eyes. Then, she looked at Li Chen curiously. However, when she saw Li Chen's somewhat invasive gaze, Xiao Xun' er gently put down the book in her hand and walked out.
"I can't see through him. This person is really interesting.”Xiao Xun 'er thought as she walked.
Ever since Xiao Xun 'er started to understand the situation, there was no one her age that she could not see through. She had been observing Li Chen for this reason, but it was not the case in the eyes of others.
