Too Wild Swallowing Heaven
Chapter 3925 Rare House
The industries in the three central regions are basically saturated. Most of the income of the Tiandao Society actually comes from the Shenshui Sect and the Jingshen Sword Sect. Liu Wuxie does not have many industries of his own, so he can only turn his attention to those small regions.
Without a core industry of its own, one would be controlled by others. That was why Liu Wuxie could not wait to open a medicine shop in the small domain. First, to earn resources, and second, to arrange spies.
He must take this step, and no one can stop him.
"Master, just tell us what we should do next!"
Wei Tuo stood up excitedly.
"Let's go back to the inn first and make a decision tomorrow."
Liu Wuxie removed the ban and returned to the inn with the five people.
Not long after they left, two men came out of a private room next door.
"Hurry up and report to the Patriarch that people from the Pill Pavilion have come to Xilin City!"
After the two men watched Liu Wuxie and the others leave, the man on the left lowered his voice and spoke.
The five major families in Xilin City have spies throughout the entire Mist Region, and Licheng naturally has their spies as well.
Just the day before yesterday, the spy from Licheng reported back everything that happened in Licheng truthfully, including the destruction of the Dan Yao Pavilion and the Yu family.
The five major families received the news that the Alchemy Pavilion was coming to Xilin City at the same time.
Deep inside the Xie family’s mansion!
"It's just a small medicine pavilion, and the banker actually notified us late at night. If they dare to open a medicine pavilion in Xilin City, my Xie family will be the first to disagree."
The head of the Xie family came out wearing a fur coat, with sleepy eyes. He had just laid down with his concubine not long ago. In the middle of their exercise, news came from the banker.
"Master, according to the spies, the Medicine Pavilion took only half a day to wipe out the Yu family. We have to be on guard."
In the study, there stood an old man, who was the chief steward of the Xie family. He was in charge of all the family affairs, big and small, and it was he who delivered the news.
"The Yu family is just a third-rate family. They are showing off their power just because their two sons came back from the Tianyu Daochang. It is only a matter of time before they are destroyed. Our five great families have a profound foundation and are inextricably linked with the three central regions. Whether it is the foundation or the overall strength, they are far beyond the reach of the Yu family. With just a small pill pavilion, they dare to compete with us for the pill market in Xilin City. They are really tired of living. Don't disturb my sleep. You can handle this kind of thing yourself in the future."
After the head of the Xie family finished speaking, he no longer paid attention to the butler, returned to the house, and continued to sleep with his concubine in his arms.
Similar things happened to several other families.
The Yin family took it very seriously and sent people to monitor the Medicine Pavilion's every move overnight.
The Yu family has a similar attitude to the Xie family and they both look down on the Alchemy Pavilion.
As for the Jia family, nothing can be seen for the time being. Among the five major families, the Jia family is the weakest, and most of the time, they have to look at the faces of the other families.
"Young Master, I feel like someone has been secretly watching us."
As soon as he stepped into the inn, Zhou Shen turned back suddenly. Along the way, he noticed that there were several pairs of eyes staring at them.
"Such a big thing happened in Licheng, it is impossible for Xilin City not to know about it. We just arrived in Xilin City, and it is estimated that the family here has received the news."
Liu Wuxie said indifferently.
He had known for a long time that someone was following them secretly, but he just pretended not to know.
They are just a bunch of clowns. They really think they can look down on everyone just because they have curry favor with the sects in the three central regions.
"Should we get rid of them?"
Zhou Shen made a gesture of wiping his neck.
"No need. Tomorrow morning, Zhou Shen and I will go meet someone. The four of you go investigate these five major families and find out who is providing them with elixirs. Judging from the elixirs you brought back, many of them cannot be refined in the Mist Region. There is only one possibility. These elixirs come from the Middle Three Regions. This is why the five major families are so unscrupulous."
After returning to the yard, Liu Wuxie immediately made arrangements.
"Yes!"
The five of them nodded immediately.
Returning to the house, Liu Wuxie sat down cross-legged.
The Seven Treasures Glazed Magic Lamp was sacrificed. Although the lamp seedling was much weaker, it could still absorb some of the spiritual power every day.
"Five major families, you'd better not provoke me, otherwise don't blame me for being rude."
A ray of cold light flashed from the depths of Liu Wuxie's eyes.
In the evening, Zhou Shen and Lin Chu brought back some medicinal pills from the five major family pharmacies. Liu Wuxie was very familiar with several of the pills, as they were made by the Mao family in Wanyao City.
Wanyao City was dependent on the Liu family, but now it has completely broken off relations with Liu Wuxie. The Liu family has even sent a large number of experts to surround and kill them. This blood feud must be settled one by one.
As soon as it was light in the sky, Lin Chu, Wei Tuo and others left.
This time they disguised themselves and sealed their faces with restrictions so that no one could discover their true identities.
The four of them quickly blended into the crowd and went to find out the details of the five major families.
Money talks. As long as they are willing to spend resources, they will definitely be able to find out useful information.
"Master, where are we going today?"
Zhou Shen had been waiting in the yard early, and as soon as the young master appeared, he immediately went to greet him.
"Don't worry, they'll be here soon!"
Liu Wuxie came to the yard and did some simple stretching. Soon there was a knock on the door.
“Knock, knock, knock…Excuse me, does Master Liu live here?”
A voice came from outside the yard, it was Wei Qiong.
Zhou Shen immediately opened the gate and saw an old man and a young boy standing nervously outside the door.
"Senior Wei, come in!"
Liu Wuxie invited them in to talk.
Wei Qiong brought his grandson Wei An into the yard. Both of them looked a little nervous. Liu Wuxie had killed the Ten Thousand Poisons Python with one sword that night, which had caused them a great shock.
"Greetings, Master Liu. Fortunately, I have fulfilled your mission. I have found a suitable place according to Master Liu's requirements, but there are currently several families competing for this place."
Wei Qiong went straight to the point and took out a map of Xilin City with a circle drawn on it, which was the place he had chosen.
Liu Wuxie and Zhou Shen came forward. Judging from the map markings, this place was indeed a good one.
Whether it is the geographical location or the building complex, it is an excellent choice.
"Take us to have a look. If the price is right, this is the place to choose."
Liu Wuxie decided to go and see for himself. Since Weiqiong said that this place was good, it must be good.
After saying that, the group of four left the inn and headed towards the place marked on the map.
"Mr. Liu, the previous owner of this house had to move his entire family because his family fell into poverty, so he sold the house and the shop. The price is not cheap. Recently, several major families in Xilin City are competing for it. I'm afraid it won't be easy for us to take it over. If it doesn't work, we can just choose another place."
On the way, Wei Qiong introduced the origin of the house in detail.
"Decide after reading it!"
Liu Wuxie knew what Weiqiong was worried about.
In Xilin City, anyone who dares to compete with the five major families for something they have set their eyes on is undoubtedly seeking death.
The Wei family is just a second-rate family and cannot be compared with the five major families.
The Tianyu Dojo was opened, and the Wei family also sent people in. Several members of the family died in it, causing the family's status to decline significantly.
After walking for about half an hour, the sun was already high in the sky and the streets were bustling with people coming and going.
Various noises came one after another, and there were also some street vendors shouting.
"It's the courtyard in front. There are about ten shops facing the street. The courtyard behind can accommodate nearly a thousand people. There is also a medicinal field behind the courtyard, where magical medicine can be grown. In the past, this family made a living by growing magical medicine. I don't know why, the magical medicine has been withering in recent years, causing the family to fall into decline. So they sold their ancestral property and moved out of Xilin City."
Wei Qiong said, pointing to a large group of buildings ahead.
There was only a small circle marked on the map, and I thought it was only a thousand acres in size. But after arriving, I found that it was a huge building complex. Together with the medicinal fields and shops, it covered an area of as much as ten thousand acres.
"It's a great place. The shops are connected to the residences, so we can move in and out easily."
Zhou Shen looked at the buildings in the distance and couldn't help but admire them.
Such a good place is hard to find even with a lantern. No wonder the five major families want to take it over.
"Take me to see the owner of this house."
Liu Wuxie used his ghost eyes to take a look and found that there was actually a super large formation hidden around the building. It seemed that this family was not simple in the past, otherwise the five major families would have already taken action to snatch it away and would not have waited until now.
The four people came to the gate of the house. The two big lions were like two mythical beasts, baring their fangs and waving their claws, giving people an invisible pressure.
Zhou Shen hurriedly went forward and knocked on the door. After waiting for about half a cup of tea, the huge door opened and a head popped out from inside. He was about 30 years old and asked Zhou Shen and the others, "Who are you looking for?"
"We heard that this house is for sale, so we came here today to discuss the price with Patriarch Xin. If it's suitable, we are willing to buy it."
Wei Qiong hurried forward and stated his purpose.
"It turns out to be Master Wei. I'm so sorry, the house has been bought by someone else. You're a step too late."
The man in his thirties was about to close the door after he finished speaking.
Upon hearing that the house had been sold, Zhou Shen showed disappointment on his face.
Unexpectedly, they were still a step too late and were beaten to the punch by others.
"Wait a moment!"
Just when the door was about to close, Liu Wuxie stepped forward and stood in front of the man who was about thirty years old. The door seemed to be welded by something, and no matter how hard the man tried, he could not close it.
"I've made it very clear, the house has been sold. You're late. Please don't stay here."
The man in his thirties actually showed a hint of panic when faced with Liu Wuxie's fierce eyes.
"You are not from this house, why are you blocking our way?"
Liu Wuxie's sharp gaze pierced the man in front of him.
"You...you are talking nonsense. I am the housekeeper of this house. How dare you say that I am not from this house? Believe it or not, I will drive you out immediately."
The man, who was about thirty years old, was a little panicked and his eyes were evasive when he spoke.
The people present were all smart people and could tell something from just one expression.
"Who are you and why are you here?"
Wei An immediately stepped forward, grabbed the man by the collar, and questioned him loudly.
Liu Wuxie saved their lives. If they can't even do this well, how can they face their benefactor again in the future?
