732 Undeserved Disaster
“Could it be that you guys are in cahoots?”
Hu Bailie narrowed his eyes and sized up Lu Benwei.
At this mont, Xiong Hu and the Great Peacock King arrived and called out to Hu Bailie, “General Hu, there’s been a mistake.”
Xiong Hu was so tired that he was out of breath.
“The Quicksand Kingsnake Clan can’t be the murderer!”
Hu Bailie’s eyes widened in anger. “How could they not be? They are the only snake clan in Jiao City!”
Xiong Hu was dumbfounded. He thought that Hu Bailie was not only impulsive but also brawny and simple-minded.
“General Hu, calm down and think carefully. If the Quicksand Kingsnake Clan is the mastermind, how could they appear in front of us so openly? Moreover, you’ve fought with the culprit behind the scenes for a short ti, so you should know his strength!” Xiong Hu gulped and explained to Hu Bailie.
Hu Bailie frowned and pondered. A mont later, a hint of embarrassnt flashed across his face.
“You said that the Quicksand Kingsnake might be the mastermind, so I ca!”
When Xiong Hu heard that, he was so angry that his nose was almost crooked. He cursed Hu Bailie’s ancestors in his heart.
“Damn it, how did this person beco the Great General of the Huqin Dynasty? Not only is he simple-minded and impulsive, but he’s also so shaless.”
“When did I say that the Quicksand Kingsnake Clan was the murderer?”
However, he soon understood that Hu Bailie was here to save his face and put the bla on him.
At this mont, he was in a dilemma. There was Hu Bailie in the front, and the Quicksand King Snake Clan in the back.
Xiong Hu grinned awkwardly and said, “I spoke too hastily just now. The Quicksand Kingsnake Clan is a small possibility, but I’ve already ruled it out. I was a little slow in my speech and caused you to misunderstand.”
“Alright, it’s enough to clarify the facts,” at this mont, the Quicksand Kingsnake Clan Leader said resentfully.
He knew that Hu Bailie was trying to find a way out by pushing the bla on Xiong Hu. The other party was powerful and backed by the Huqin Empire.
The Quicksand Kingsnake Clan could not afford to offend them. Xiong Hu heaved a long sigh of relief, thinking that he had not offended this faction.
“Since we have a clue, let’s continue searching. “Hu Bailie put his hands behind his back and left.
Xiong Hu was so angry that he wanted to curse again.
After Hu Bailie left, he called out, “The Huqin Dynasty is going to be finished sooner or later!”
Lu Benwei laughed and said, “It’s not good to be a dog, right?”
“Go to the side!” Xiong Hu was so angry that he could not help but feel angry.
At this mont, the Quicksand Kingsnake Clan Leader walked over. He had transford into a human form. He looked beautiful and was quite young.
“Thank you for saving .”
“It’s nothing. It’s what I should do. After all, I live next door to you, so I’m afraid I’ll be affected.”
Just now, he had been observing the cri scene through the Eye of Insight.
When Hu Bailie rushed over, he was worried that he would be affected, so he took action.
“Thank you again.” The Quicksand Kingsnake Clan Leader bowed again to express his gratitude. “My na is Liu Qinghe. If you need anything in the future, I’ll do my best.”
“My na is Lu Hongyi,” Lu Benwei replied politely.
“I know you. A few days ago, you were a famous person in Jiao City. The story of you eliminating the Pegasus rcenary Corps by yourself has spread all over the northern wilderness.” Liu Qinghe’s eyes revealed a hint of approval.
“So, it’s you, who’s in the middle of the mountain?”
At this mont, the Great Peacock King walked over with a crown on his head. The feathers on his back seed to be inlaid with gems, shining brightly under the night sky.
“Greetings, Great Peacock King!”
The Quicksand Kingsnake was a vicious clan, and it needed to respect experts like the Great Peacock King.
Lu Benwei also nodded slightly.
“I’ve long heard that the Pegasus rcenary Corps, which had dominated the northern wilderness for many years, was uprooted by a junior,” the Great Peacock King said. His voice was gentle, like the spring rain.
Lu Benwei did not say much and only said, “It’s just that I can’t see through their usual style.”
“Good!”
The Great Peacock King only said one word and expressed his evaluation of Lu Benwei.
“When the storm is over, I welco little friend Lu to my residence as a guest.”
“Thank you, Great Peacock King,” Lu Benwei said.
At this mont, a streak of white appeared in the sky.
The Great Peacock King yawned lazily. “We’ve been making a scene all night. I should go back and catch up on my sleep.”
After saying that, he returned to his residence.
Only Lu Benwei, Xiong Hu, Liu Qinghe, and his clansn were left.
Liu Qinghe looked at the ruined inn and was at a loss.
“Brother Qinghe, there are so empty rooms in the inn I’m staying in.” Lu Benwei sent an invitation.
“With the current situation, it’s already good that there’s a place to stay,” Liu Qinghe said.
Lu Benwei’s inn was not far from here, only a mile away.
In the conflict between Hu Bailie and Liu Qinghe, he was not affected and escaped with his life.
When the innkeeper saw that Lu Benwei had helped him attract a business, he was so happy that his mouth reached the back of his head.
“Hero Lu, you guys do it. I’ll prepare breakfast for you imdiately!”
After saying that, he personally ran to the kitchen.
After Lu Benwei and the others took their seats, they began to chat in boredom.
“Are you here for the Red Phoenix divine dicine?” Lu Benwei suddenly asked.
He suddenly rembered why Jiao City had beco a place where wind and clouds gathered.
“Brother Lu, are you not here for the Red Phoenix divine dicine?” Liu Qinghe was surprised.
Lu Benwei shook his head.
“In the beginning, it was just to wait for soone. It just so happened that the Pegasus rcenary Corps was causing trouble. Not long after the Pegasus rcenary Corps was eliminated, I heard that the Red Phoenix divine dicine will be born in Jiao City.”
“I see.” Liu Qinghe nodded slightly.
“Will the Red Phoenix divine dicine really be born?” Lu Benwei asked again, “What’s the matter?”
“I’m not too sure about that.” Liu Qinghe shook his head.
“However, I do have a secret that I can share with the two of you to repay you for saving .”
Lu Benwei and Xiong Hu pricked up their ears at the sa ti.
“The Red Phoenix divine dicine is publicly acknowledged as a divine dicine in the world. Legend has it that it will have so reaction with the person who has the most red pearls.” Liu Qinghe lowered his voice and observed his surroundings.
Lu Benwei and Xiong Hu were both surprised.
“Brother Qinghe, are you the only one who knows this secret?”
Liu Qinghe shook his head with a serious expression. “Not only that, according to my observations, there are many powerful people in Jiao City who are secretly trading red pearls. If the two of you want to fight for it, you must make plans early.”
Lu Benwei nodded and thanked Liu Qinghe for his kindness.
Actually, he still had so questions in his heart. Why were these powerful people so sure that the Red Phoenix Divine dicine would be born here?
