Chapter 262: Chapter 262 Mu Li: My eyelid is twitching so much, I feel like something bad is going to happen.
Wolf Head Mercenary Group!
The scruffy young man known as Shu Ge returned to the mercenary group and immediately rushed to Mu Li's private residence.
Outside Mu Li's residence, two Wolf Head Mercenary Group guards stood watch, but upon seeing Shu Ge, they immediately made way for him.
After all, everyone in the entire mercenary group knew that Shu Ge was the trusted subordinate of the Young Leader, Mu Li.
Before long, Shu Ge found Mu Li.
However, what puzzled him was that the Young Leader's complexion didn't look very good, and the faint Dou Qi emanating from him also gave him an unsettling feeling.
What's going on?
When Mu Li saw Shu Ge, he said indifferently, "Shu Ge, didn't I tell you to keep an eye on them? Why are you back?"
Shu Ge immediately replied respectfully, "Reporting, Young Leader, I did indeed bring a few brothers from the group to secretly follow those three earlier, but they were taken into Wanyao Trading Firm by Xiao Yixian, so we didn't dare to act rashly."
Upon hearing this, Mu Li's already gloomy face subtly changed, and his brows furrowed.
He then waved his hand and said, "This is a bit troublesome now, but Yao shouldn't go against me just for three unrelated people."
"Alright, I'll talk to Yao. You continue to keep an eye on those three. As soon as they leave Qingshan Town, immediately apprehend them."
After speaking, Mu Li thought for a moment and added a sentence.
"Don't worry about the man; just kill him and feed him to the Magical Beasts. As for the two remaining women, bring them to me."
Shu Ge listened, looking curiously at Mu Li.
"Young Leader, are you not going personally this time?"
Upon hearing this, a gloomy look flashed in Mu Li's eyes.
If it were before, he would have gone personally, but after he returned not long ago, something went wrong during his cultivation, causing his internal Dou Qi to riot, almost costing him half his life, and even his strength was affected, nearly regressing.
Mu Li attributed this situation to Ning Rongrong.
He felt that he must have been affected emotionally because Ning Rongrong publicly shamed him, which in turn affected his cultivation.
However, to maintain his prestige as the Young Leader, Mu Li said indifferently, "Recently, I've had new insights into the cultivation of Dou Technique and need to go into seclusion for a period of intense cultivation."
Upon hearing this, Shu Ge immediately flattered loudly, "As expected of the Young Leader! With the Young Leader's talent, breaking through to Dou Master and unifying Qingshan Town will be just around the corner!"
Mu Li heard this, the corners of his mouth slightly curved upwards, and he patted Shu Ge's shoulder, laughing, "Shu Ge, Shu Ge, you're getting better and better at talking."
Shu Ge immediately said loudly, "Young Leader, I'm just speaking the truth! Am I wrong?"
"Hahaha, what a good truth! When that day comes, I will certainly not mistreat you."
"Thank you, Young Leader!" Shu Ge immediately knelt down and bowed loudly.
…
Late night descended!
Wanyao Trading Firm!
Qi Lin's mouth twitched slightly as he looked at the two "Xiao Yixian" figures in front of him, arguing back and forth, each with completely different styles.
Goodness, this is truly realistic, even the Thousand Illusions Mask was used.
This directly led to Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong feeling guilty when they faced the real Xiao Yixian the next day, making Xiao Yixian confused.
What's going on? How did they suddenly become so distant after just one day?
After Qi Lin and the two stayed at Wanyao Trading Firm for three more days, Xiao Yixian suddenly told them that Wanyao Trading Firm had once again assembled a herb-collecting team, preparing to enter the Magical Beast Mountain Range to gather medicinal ingredients, and asked them if they wanted to go along and see.
Qi Lin had already planned to do so, and Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong were not ones to stay idle, so they immediately agreed and decided to follow the Wanyao Trading Firm's herb-collecting team into the Magical Beast Mountain Range.
When Xiao Yixian told Yao this news, Yao was initially reluctant for Qi Lin and the two to accompany the Wanyao Trading Firm's herb-collecting team.
After all, if anything went wrong with Qi Lin and the two along the way, all his little schemes would fall through completely.
But soon, Xiao Yixian hinted a thing or two to Yao.
Although she didn't specifically state the strength of Qi Lin and the two, she did indicate that their strength was not that simple, and even the Wolf Head Mercenary Group was nothing in front of them.
When Yao heard this, he initially didn't believe Xiao Yixian at all.
After all, the three looked only seventeen or eighteen years old; how strong could they be?
Did she really think geniuses were as common as cabbages?
A Dou Master expert at seventeen or eighteen years old would be extremely rare, even in a place like the imperial capital.
However, seeing Xiao Yixian's unwavering conviction, Yao still half-believed Xiao Yixian's words.
And just as Qi Lin and the two left Wanyao Trading Firm, Shu Ge, who had been guarding outside Wanyao Trading Firm, also became aware of it and immediately exclaimed excitedly, "The targets are out! Keep a close eye on them!"
The others immediately responded.
However, they still didn't know how obvious their seemingly secret disguises were in front of Qi Lin and the two.
Ning Rongrong sighed with emotion, "It's been three days, and these guys are still guarding. They're truly persistent!"
Xiao Wu said indifferently, "Since they're looking for death, why don't we just go and wipe out their stronghold?"
Over these three days, Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong also learned from Xiao Yixian that among the three major mercenary groups in Qingshan Town, the Wolf Head Mercenary Group had the worst reputation due to their overbearing actions.
Killing such people would only make one feel refreshed!
Xiao Yixian stood with Qi Lin and the two, and upon hearing Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong's words, she was slightly startled.
"Have the Wolf Head Mercenary Group still not given up?"
She hadn't expected that even after Qi Lin and the two had moved into Wanyao Trading Firm, the Wolf Head Mercenary Group would still not give up.
Xiao Wu said brazenly, "It's fine, they'll give up soon!"
With that, she rubbed her fists together and took out a pink giant hammer from her storage ring.
Qi Lin had refined many treasures for her; besides the set of mecha from before, this giant hammer was the most precious, consuming many rare materials.
The pink giant hammer landed on the ground, and Xiao Wu dragged it by the handle, sparks flying wherever it went.
Her target was none other than Shu Ge and the others from the Wolf Head Mercenary Group.
Ning Rongrong saw this and followed suit, quickly saying, "I'm coming too! Leave two for me!"
Xiao Yixian was dumbfounded, looking at the pink giant hammer in Xiao Wu's hand, which was completely out of proportion to her body, and the corner of her mouth twitched slightly.
"Xiao Wu's weapon is truly unique!"
Qi Lin nodded in agreement and said with a smile, "She's been like this since she was little. Although she does have a bit of a violent tendency, she's actually a very good person. Don't be afraid."
On the other side, Shu Ge and the others also noticed this scene and immediately realized that they had been exposed.
Seeing Xiao Wu's aggressive demeanor, coupled with the highly impactful large hammer in her hand, they immediately knew that they had probably kicked a steel plate this time.
"Not good!" Shu Ge's heart warned him, and he couldn't help but swallow his saliva, saying to the others, "You guys hold her off, I'll go get reinforcements for you!"
With that, he turned and ran without looking back.
He had already made up his mind not to return to the Wolf Head Mercenary Group either.
At the same time, within the Wolf Head Mercenary Group!
Mu Li, who was still recuperating from his injuries, suddenly frowned. He felt a sudden pang of anxiety and muttered to himself.
"Strange, why is my eyelid twitching so much today?"
"I always feel like something bad is about to happen!"
