    Chapter 229 The storm ends

    The door of the Xiyangwu headquarters, which had been closed for a long time, opened under the gaze of many surprised eyes, and a group of people rushed out with cheers.

    Immediately afterwards, many exclamations came from the crowd.

    Because they all recognized it, this group of people was clearly the phase tempering masters of those branches in Xiyangwu, and the two leaders were none other than Tang Yun and Lu Xiaofeng.

    Nothing happened to these branch phase tempering masters?

    Many people looked at each other. This seemed different from the rumors they had heard?

    Although the complexions of these branch tempering masters all look a little pale, they are obviously far from the so-called poisonous killing.

    As many whispers rang out, Li Luo and Jiang Qing’e were seen walking out. Their eyes glanced around, and they could feel that many eyes were directed here.

    Those glances were malicious and kind, but of course they were mostly just looking at the excitement.

    Li Luo ignored these secret glances and nodded at Tang Yun. The latter received his signal and took a deep breath with a look of determination in his eyes.

    He took a step forward, raised his hands to all directions, and said: “Everyone, from today on, those of us who are tempering masters from the Xiling County branch will officially join the Xiyangwu headquarters, and we will no longer have anything to do with the Xiling County branch.”

    His determined voice spread, causing many eyes to widen slightly.

    No one expected that the good show that they had been waiting for all day would have such a result.

    Not only were these Xiling County Prime Ministers not poisoned and killed by Li Luo as rumored, but they all now chose to join the Xiyangwu headquarters and completely severed ties with the Xiling County branch.

    It is not difficult to understand the attitude behind such determination.

    Obviously, something must have happened during this period to make these tempering masters in Xiling County so determined and choose to abandon Pei Hao without hesitation.

    So what is it?

    Combined with the previous rumors, this is somewhat intriguing.

    Although Tang Yun did not directly say what happened, this lack of complete explanation made it easier for people to think deeper. So, who was the poisoner?

    At this time, the answer has appeared in the minds of many people.

    There was a commotion spreading in front of the Xiyangwu headquarters, and whispers continued to spread.

    After Tang Yun, Lu Xiaofeng and the others announced the news, they returned to the headquarters. Li Luo looked at everyone with a smile on his face and said, “Thank you for caring about our Xiyangwu, but there is nothing to do now, so please disperse.”

    In front of the headquarters, the bustling crowd dispersed angrily when they saw that there was no excitement to be seen.

    Just as Li Luo was about to turn around, he suddenly spotted a group of boys and girls. His eyes lit up immediately and he quickly rushed to meet them.

    When the boys and girls over there saw Li Luo coming quickly, Yu Lang among them suddenly smiled and said: “Although Li Luogui is the young master of Luo Lan Mansion, his sincerity to his friends is still very touching.”

    Then he stepped forward with open arms.

    Li Luo walked up, glanced at Yu Lang strangely, and then said: “Give way, thank you.”

    Yu Lang glared at me and said, “You hurt my feelings!”

    Li Luo rolled his eyes and ignored this guy’s antics. Instead, he greeted Bai Doudou with a smile on his face. Bai Mengmeng said, “Captain Bai, Mengmeng, have you come to Daxia City too? Haha, you are so welcome.”

    “Let’s go and sit inside Xiyang House.”

    He invited warmly.

    Bai Doudou was a little uncomfortable with Li Luo’s enthusiasm. She could feel that although Li Luo said he was welcoming her, in fact his warm eyes were focused more on Bai Mengmeng.

    “Okay.”

    Bai Mengmeng didn’t think much about it. After all, Li Luo was her captain, and she still respected him very much, so she immediately accepted his invitation.

    Today, the girl is wearing a light-colored dress and floral skirt. Her legs under the skirt are white and slender. The smile on her delicate and sweet face makes people feel as sweet as tasting honey.

    Li Luo said hello to Zhao Kuo and the others beside him, then led them into Xiyang House with a smile on his face, and then introduced him to Jiang Qing’e who was waiting here.

    “Sister Qing’e, this is Bai Doudou. She is the most powerful female captain in the One Star Academy. You have already met Bai Mengmeng.”

    Jiang Qing’e smiled lightly at everyone, her eyes lingering on Bai Doudou and Bai Mengmeng. She had heard of Bai Doudou, but the one that concerned her more was Bai Mengmeng.

    Wшw¸ тт kan¸ co

    Because she had already heard from Li Luo that this girl was extremely good at researching the formula of spiritual water and strange light. Her achievements in this area almost overwhelmed the years of achievements of the Xiyangwu Research Laboratory.

    And she also knew that Li Luo coveted Bai Mengmeng’s ability extremely.

    In the future, if Xiyang House wants to compete in the top ten of Great Xia Lingshui Qiguang House, it will not be enough to rely on Li Luo’s secret source water. The formula of Lingshui Qiguang is also a top priority. Therefore, it is no wonder that Li Luo covets them.

    “Senior Jiang.”

    Bai Doudou was a little excited when she saw Jiang Qing’e. After all, from a certain perspective, Jiang Qing’e was the target she wanted to pursue at Shengxuanxing Academy.

    Although Bai Mengmeng has met Jiang Qing’e several times, she has always been a little afraid of her aura, so half of her body was behind Bai Doudou.

    “Welcome to Xiyang House as a guest. It’s been a bit busy today. I hope you don’t feel that the reception was inadequate.” Jiang Qing’e smiled at them and then ushered them in without saying much.

    “It ended like this?”

    When the crowd in front of the Xiyangwu headquarters began to disperse, Si Qiuying couldn’t help but widen her eyes with a look of confusion on her face.

    Si Tianming on the side was also stunned, and then chuckled: “It seems that we have underestimated Jiang Qing’e and Li Luo. They resolved this trouble easily.”

    “Mostly because of Sister Qing’e’s action.” Si Qiuying said confidently. After all, she is Jiang Qing’e’s fan girl, and although Li Luo has become more and more outstanding recently, compared with Jiang Qing’e, she is still much bleak.

    “Maybe.”

    Si Tianming was a little noncommittal. Jiang Qing’e was indeed excellent, but in the face of such changes, it was not necessarily about who was stronger.

    It’s just that he doesn’t know the inside story, so he can’t give a more accurate evaluation.

    Just relying on some intuition, he felt that the young palace master’s weight in this matter was not as light as Si Qiuying thought.

    But no matter what, this incident was perfectly resolved, which was the best result for Luolan Mansion, and Jinque Mansion, which had a good relationship with Luolan Mansion, was happy to see it.

    “What did that idiot Pei Hao do? Was it resolved so easily?”

    Anger emerged on Duze Beixuan’s feminine face. He had been looking forward to it so much before, but when he waited for such a result, he felt as if he had been tricked by Li Luo.

    Duze Honglian also frowned. This time, things happened so quickly and ended up being resolved like this. It was indeed a bit loud and quiet.

    “I’m afraid the problem is not with Pei Hao, but in Xiyang House.” Duze Honglian shook her head. She did not think that Pei Hao was not ruthless this time. However, I am afraid that even Pei Hao did not expect that Li Luo and Jiang Qing’e finally defused this offensive.

    “This Pei Hao, not only did he not destroy Xiyang House, but he also sent a large number of tempering masters. Is this guy messing with Li Luo or helping him?” Duze Beixuan said angrily.

    Originally, Xiyangwu had begun to rise due to the emergence of the secret source water, but fortunately, their Duze Mansion spent a huge price to prevent Xiyangwu from recruiting more phase tempering masters in a short period of time, which limited its scale. But now, it was better. Pei Hao directly sent a gift package from a thousand miles away, which also broke the plan of their Duze Mansion.

    And next, Xiyangwu, whose number of tempering masters has greatly increased, will inevitably experience a surge in scale.

    Duze Honglian was not as angry as him, but she also seemed a little disappointed.

    “Let’s go, the matter has come to this, there is no point in talking about it. Go back and inform Dazewu. The crackdown on Xiyangwu will be deeper next. I have a hunch that if Xiyangwu really rises, then our Dazewu will definitely bear the brunt.”

    She shook her head, turned around and left decisively.

    If more people were disappointed in other places, then the atmosphere in the private room where Pei Hao was located was stagnant from the beginning.

    Pang Qianchi looked gloomy and did not dare to say a word, because he could feel the strong oppression of the low pressure radiating from Pei Hao’s body.

    The latter originally planned to accept the fruit of victory, but found that what flew over was not a fruit, but an iron gall covered with spikes.

    It was really painful when it hit my face.

    The frozen atmosphere lasted for a long time, and was finally broken with Pei Hao’s long exhalation.

    Pang Qianchi laughed dryly and said, “Master Pei Hao, don’t be angry. This is just a training exercise. There will be opportunities in the future.”

    “Jiang Qing’e is indeed difficult to deal with.”

    “No.”

    Pei Hao shook his head and interrupted Pang Qianchi. He turned his head, looked at the latter, and said calmly: “I feel that this time, I did not lose in the hands of Jiang Qing’e, but in the hands of Li Luo.”

    Pang Qianchi was stunned and said: “How is that possible? Although Li Luo is somewhat capable, there is still a big gap between him and Jiang Qing’e.”

    “It’s just intuition.” Pei Hao said calmly.

    “Then, what should we do next?” Pang Qianchi asked.

    Pei Hao had deep eyes, shook his head, turned and left.

    “Don’t worry, this is just foreplay now. The real highlight will be the mansion festival in half a year.”

    “I hope that by then, Li Luo can really hold on to the inheritance left by his master and his wife. Otherwise, things will change in Luo Lan Mansion.”
