Xu Yuan has been in a very good mood in the past two days.

First, because the first investment paid off.

Miss Succubus has been working very hard in recent practice, and his mind and soul are growing at a very gratifying rate.

The second reason is because Xu Changge has arrived at Jiuyuan City this morning.

Yes, it is the Jiuyuan City that the elder brother mentioned when he threatened him before. It is a satellite town next to Jingjiang Prefecture. According to Jingjiang Prefecture, it is only forty miles away.

The previous casual threat from the other party was not groundless. It seemed that Jiuyuan City did have something to deal with.

It is said that Aunt Lou Ji said that there is a problem with a large "monster breeding farm" in the mountains over there, which will affect the supply of certain soul-based elixirs in the southwest.

Of course,

Apart from these superficial things, what makes Xu Yuan even more happy is the improvement of his own strength.

Ever since he used the bleeding mirror in actual combat that day, he seemed to have broken through some kind of bottleneck, and his actual combat strength was rapidly improving at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Although it still takes a long time to fight against those eighth-grade pulse-tempering warriors, these warriors can hardly touch him now.

Of course, the cost of this style of play is that the consumption of Yuan Qi will increase rapidly.

Originally, Xu Yuan could fight these eighth-level warriors for a whole morning in close combat, but now his energy will be exhausted after five or six fights.

Come out from the attic in the middle of the lake.

While thinking about things, Xu Yuan suddenly noticed a group of people dressed as long-term workers standing on the edge of the wetland lake.

Somewhat surprised.

This is the first time he has seen so many servants gathering by the lake. In the past, at most one or two servants would be pruning and cleaning here.

Looking over and making eye contact, the servants lowered their heads in panic.

Just when Xu Yuan was about to put it behind him, he suddenly met a pair of eyes.

"..."

At the moment of contact, these eyes immediately lowered.

Xu Yuan glanced at the owner of these eyes in a strange way.

This is a strong young man wearing gray linen clothes.

His face is very ordinary, his temperament is also very ordinary, and he is inconspicuous in the crowd.

But for some reason, Xu Yuan looked at him and felt a little peace-keeping.

After a slight hesitation, Xu Yuan paused.

The foreman next to him has been paying attention to the third young master from the corner of his eye. His sharp eyesight is an essential skill for a small person like him to survive.

Seeing the other party stop, the foreman immediately walked over quickly and flattered, and rubbed his hands awkwardly:

"Hey, what are your orders, Third Young Master?"

Xu Yuan glanced at the servants and workers and asked:

"Why are these people here?"

When the foreman saw this, he cursed in his heart, and immediately quietly waved his hand at the newly recruited long-term workers, indicating to get out of here, and at the same time replied in a humble tone:

"These people are the new servants in the house. The younger one is now helping them get familiar with the environment."

"...."

Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows upon hearing this.

New servant?

At this time?

How many days does it take to get from Changhong Valley to Jingjiang City?

His mood spread a little, and Xu Yuan subconsciously stopped the servants who were about to disperse:

"Wait."

"...."

As the brocade-robed young master's voice spoke, Qin Mo suddenly glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw the great master groom he had seen before slowly walking towards this side from a distance.

My heart trembled slightly:

"Old man..."

"Don't panic, I'm here. This guy just glanced at you. Why are you so anxious?"

"Well..." Qin Mo felt slightly at ease.

And the next moment,

He then heard the Jinpao Young Master's next words, which were in a rather bored tone:

"In the future, less people will be brought to the lake to gather together. It's an eyesore."

When the foreman heard this, he felt a sense of panic in his heart, and he nodded and bowed quickly and said;

"Yes, yes, these bastards will never appear here again to bother you, Third Young Master."

Xu Yuan glanced at the foreman:

"You too."

"..."Foreman.

A brief chat,

The foreman quickly left with a group of servants with a sneer on his face.

Qin Mo, who was mixed in the crowd, felt relieved, took a long breath, and left with the crowd.

Watching the crowd go away, Xu Yuan, who was standing there, also let out a long breath.

He shouldn't have called the other party just now.

If there is no problem, there is no need to stop.

If there was a problem, then his subconscious action just now was to kill another person.

I almost made a mistake, but fortunately he reacted quickly.

After a little thought, Wuxuanyuan is not ready to go either.

Xu Yuan realized where the dissonance he felt just now came from.

Eyes.

Just now he glanced around, and many servants met his eyes, but the eyes of these servants were all full of panic and flinching.

But not the young man with an ordinary face.

Although it was only for a moment, Xu Yuan clearly saw that there was no panic in the other person's eyes.

Some are just calm, even with a vague sense of condescending confidence.

As special as standing out from the crowd.

Even if he saw this kind of look in the eyes of a poor scholar, Xu Yuan would not be surprised at all. After all, he has a good reputation.

But it appeared on a long-term worker in the mansion...

This is not the previous life, this is an extraordinary world with strict hierarchies that can suffocate people.

Even the chief steward in the mansion shrank when seeing him, not to mention the lowest servants in the mansion.

Very abnormal.

Thoughts flashed through his mind, and Xu Yuan subconsciously thought of Qin Mo, feeling a little ridiculous in his heart.

Was that person Qin Mo just now?

Xu Yuan thought that the other party might want to come to save Su Jinxuan, but he never thought that the other party would dare to come to the mansion to save her.

Before he went to find him, he came to the door himself.

Three great masters lead a large formation in Jingjiang Mansion. Do you dare to come here?

Are all the protagonists of these plots so courageous now?

Xu Yuan raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows.

That's not entirely true, then maybe Qin Mo doesn't know that he has a great master guarding him.

What's more, he still has a soul ring on his body, and there is a saint living in that soul ring.

From the other party's perspective, it is not impossible to sneak into the mansion and save people.

"..."Xu Yuan.

"Third Young Master, are you going to Wuxuanyuan?"

Just as he was thinking about things, a voice came from behind Xu Yuan.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

This is Zhou Chen.

Xu Yuan glanced sideways at him:

"Have a rest today and go find Su Jinxuan."

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the northwest courtyard where the communication formation was located, where Ying'er had been "training" Su Jinxuan recently.

The way to verify whether the person just now is Qin Mo is very simple, just ask Su Jinxuan to test it.

The Blackscale Guards had a plan for Qin Mo to rescue Su Jinxuan so that she could go undercover.

However, this plan was rejected by Xu Yuan as soon as it came out.

The matter of killing Qin Mo was more important in Xu Yuan's heart than the forces hiding in the dark.

He is very clear about the other party's growth rate, and even more aware of the height that the other party can reach in the future.

Silence all the way,

Walking into the heavily guarded courtyard, Xu Yuan suddenly asked:

"Mr. Zhou, do you know how we recruit long-term servants in our house?"

"Huh?"

Zhou Chen's eyes were slightly surprised, and he subconsciously glanced at the servant who was gradually walking away, and said with a smile:

"I'm not sure about the details, but they basically recruit relatives of the elderly in the mansion. Most of them inherit their father's business."

"No exceptions?" Xu Yuan asked next.

Zhou Chen was a little confused as to why the other party would ask this. He hesitated a little, but replied truthfully:

"Of course there is, and it's very common. There are many crooked ways to get the third-class permanent worker quota just now. Generally speaking, someone in the government is selling this kind of quota."

Zhou Chen has been working his way up from the bottom, and he is quite familiar with the ways of making money at the bottom.

Xu Yuan frowned when he heard this and asked: "Sell?"

Zhou Chen whispered:

"The world outside is a bit chaotic now. Many people are trying to squeeze into a wealthy family to work long-term, and they are even willing to sell themselves as servants. Some people want to buy, and naturally some people want to sell."

Xu Yuan frowned when he heard this:

"If we recruit long-term servants like this, won't some jobbers sneak in?"

"Third Young Master, be careful."

Zhou Chen clasped his fists and continued: "People here have some sense of propriety in this kind of thing. Even if they are sold, they will not sell it to someone they don't know. Moreover, few people will use this method to sell fine works. Servants will spend their whole lives."

As a servant, I don’t have access to any important information.”

"What if someone takes advantage of this to assassinate someone?" Xu Yuan asked next.

"Assassination..."

When Zhou Chen heard this and was about to answer, Xu Yuan waved his hand to interrupt, indicating that there was no need to explain.

His last question was a bit childish.

Regardless of whether you are practicing Qi or martial arts, improving your cultivation will continuously improve your physique.

Unless you have reached the fourth level of body integration and transformed your body into an ordinary person, or you have practiced some precious secret techniques, it will be difficult to hide this kind of physical improvement.

If you have some cultivation, just check your physical body.

Servants are not so particular.

As for people of level four or above or those who have practiced precious secret techniques, sneak in and assassinate...

It is easy to be a thief for a thousand days, but difficult to guard against a thief for a thousand days.

It was difficult to prevent assassinations with firearms in the previous life, let alone the extraordinary world. The opponent was willing to lay down blood to assassinate, and it would be the same regardless of whether there is this channel to enter the mansion.

Seeing this, Zhou Chen changed the topic and asked softly:

"Third Young Master asked this, but was there anyone questionable among those people just now?"

"Hmm."

Xu Yuan did not deny it.

Although it was impossible to confirm whether it was Qin Mo, it did not affect his arrangements in advance.

Zhou Chen frowned when he heard this and looked towards the courtyard where the servants lived.

Xu Yuan saw the look in his eyes and immediately reminded him:

"Don't act rashly."

Zhou Chen stopped his movements, pondered for two seconds, and asked in a low voice;

"The Third Young Master is suspicious of them, but what did you just discover?"

Xu Yuan said truthfully:

"Someone in this group of long-term workers has something wrong with his eyes."

Something wrong with your eyes?

Zhou Chen was obviously stunned when he heard this, but he immediately reacted and coughed lightly:

"Ahem... Third Young Master is cautious, but is this a bit too worrying?"

"..."Xu Yuan.

Xu Yuan didn't know whether he should mobilize so many people just because of a look.

But this time is too coincidental.

Changhong Valley is only a hundred and twenty miles away from Jingjiang Mansion and can be reached in a few days, and Qin Mo has the motive and ability to sneak into the mansion.

When it comes to matters involving your own life, you must be cautious and cautious.

Without further explanation, Xu Yuan glanced at Zhou Chen and said:

"You can tell that I have been worried about other people for so long? Mr. Zhou, I suspect that Qin Mo sneaked in to save Su Jinxuan."

Zhou Chen thought for a moment and said:

"The boy who used the eighth-grade pulse quenching to counterattack the seventh-grade bone training?"

"Yeah." Xu Yuan nodded.

Zhou Chen tentatively said: "In that case, does Third Young Master need Zhou to go and have a look?"

Xu Yuan glanced at him and asked:

"Mr. Zhou, you should have checked out that group of servants just now, right?"

"Naturally explored."

"Can you sense the energy in him?"

"..."

Zhou Chen frowned when he heard this.

Compared to Xu Yuan's judgment through one look, Zhou Chen is naturally more willing to believe in the results of his own investigation.

But if Xu Yuan's judgment is true, then the pair is a strong person who can block his perception.

Although the probability is very small, when it comes to the safety of the Third Young Master, even if it is one in ten thousand, we must not let it go.

Zhou Chen's eyes gradually became serious, and he clasped his fists slightly:

"Third Young Master, can you go back to the house with me? Zhou will go get the sword."

He can photograph the sword from the air, but that will cause energy fluctuations. Since he has doubts, everything needs to be on the safe side.

Xu Yuan pondered slightly, shook his head and refused:

"For the time being, everything remains as usual. Qin Mo chose to pretend to be a long-term worker instead of directly sneaking in to rescue people. It is obvious that he is still wary and is unlikely to act immediately."

"Besides, I'm not sure that person is Qin Mo. I have to let Su Jinxuan test it first."

Finished,

After Xu Yuan paused, he added:

"As for Mr. Zhou, um... could you please go to the communication array and truthfully tell Xu Changge what I just said."

When you fight a boss, you can have a boss to guide you, but naturally you can’t do it alone.
