Alliance God-level Summoner
Chapter 721 A big scapegoat
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, what a pity~"
Xiao Yao picked up the wine glass and took a sip to cover up the smile at the corner of his mouth.
Although the theft failed to continue, he had gained enough.
Next, I’m afraid God is going to make a big fuss!
Xiao Yao glanced at the people in the hall, and under the influence of the palace music, he found that no one seemed to hear the angry sound of the Beichuan Marquis Mansion.
But it's normal. After all, the city of God is too big, with an area comparable to a large city in the Dragon Kingdom, and the Beichuan Marquis Mansion is still quite far away from the imperial palace.
He picked up the barbecue leg on the table and took a delicious bite. The meat was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It was full of fat. After one bite, he felt like his whole body was sublimated.
"It tastes really good~" Xiao Yao commented while eating.
"Tiger mad~"
At this time, Ji Chen walked up to him with a wine glass, and Meng Yi and others beside him quickly stood up.
"Your Highness Ji Chen~"
Xiao Yao stood up and nodded slightly.
"Hu Kuang, is tonight's dish to your liking?" Ji Chen raised his wine glass, touched it lightly with Xiao Yao, and said gently.
"very nice!"
Xiao Yao replied briefly.
Ji Chen was already used to Hu Kuang's simple and crude way of communicating, so he went straight to the point:
"What are your plans after the Battle of God's Choice is over?"
When Ji Chen said these words, he could clearly feel that at least hundreds of people's eyes were focused on him, including the royal brothers and Prince Ji Wu.
After being promoted to Witch King, his ambition was like a wildly growing weed, out of control.
Compared with the emperor brother and the prince, his talent and strength are obviously more outstanding, and his father also loves him more. Therefore, there is no reason for him not to compete for the supreme throne.
But at present, his team is still too thin and he needs a variety of talents to join, and Hu Kuang is the one he values the most.
This is a super genius who is even more talented than himself. He is very likely to step into the realm of the Witch Emperor in the future. With his assistance, his chance of success can be increased by at least 30%.
Therefore, he planned to arrange an official position for Hu Kuang as soon as possible, stay by his side, and cultivate a deep emotional foundation.
As for Meng Yi, Feng Xing and other geniuses, although they are quite good, they cannot personally decide whether they are willing to join their own camp. Therefore, the priority of these people lags behind Hu Kuang.
"I'm going to go back to the Liehu Tribe first and tell them the good news." Xiao Yao said.
He can probably guess Ji Chen's thoughts, but he is not a real tiger maniac and cannot continue to stay in the divine capital. Now that everything is ready and everything he wants has been obtained, the next step is of course Get away in time!
"You don't need to go back in person, I can send someone to notify the Liehu tribe." Ji Chen said.
To be honest, he was a little worried about Hu Kuang acting alone.
The prince and the royal brothers definitely don't want to see Hu Kuang join their ranks. They will definitely adopt the method of wooing him first. Success is naturally the best. If they fail to win over, they will try their best to kill Hu Kuang.
No matter what the outcome is, he doesn't want to see it.
Therefore, the safest way is to place Hu Kuang next to him and not give anyone a chance.
"No, the whole clan is waiting for me to return. I must tell them the good news in person." Xiao Yao had a firm face and a sonorous voice, like a great hero who risked his life for the tribe and was devastated.
Looking at Hu Kuang's determined expression, Ji Chen knew that no matter how hard he tried to persuade him, it would have no effect.
For proud geniuses like Hu Kuang, once they make up their mind, no one can influence their will, including himself, of course.
"Okay~" Ji Chen said helplessly, "In this case, you come to my house before returning, and I will send a monster mount to take you back."
Since Hu Kuang's return has become a fact and cannot be changed, he must do everything possible to ensure his safety.
The monster mount is obviously a good way. It can not only shorten the time for Hu Kuang to go back and forth, allowing him to return to Kyoto as soon as possible, but also reduce the chance of Hu Kuang coming into contact with outsiders, killing two birds with one stone.
Xiao Yao did not refuse and said: "Then thank you, Your Highness!"
You don’t have to use the free mount in vain, it’s just a good time to see if anyone will take the bait, for example...
Xiao Yao glanced at Marquis Zhenwu.
This guy is quite cautious. He either carries his family belongings with him or hides them elsewhere. What a pity~
"Okay~"
A smile appeared on Ji Chen's lips, then he picked up the wine bottle from the palace maid's hand, poured wine into his own glass, and looked at Meng Yi and others.
"you……"
Before he finished speaking, a guard in armor hurried into the hall and shouted:
"Your Majesty, the old Beichuan Marquis Lei Ji has something important to report and is waiting outside the palace."
Thunder disease?
In the main hall, the atmosphere suddenly became quiet, and many people turned to look at a burly man. This man was the current Marquis of Beichuan, Lei Yao, who had just inherited the title of Marquis of Beichuan from the elderly Lei Ji a few years ago.
Father?
Lei Yao's expression changed.
At this time, my father suddenly visited His Majesty. Could it be that at home...
Lei Yao didn't dare to think further, his eyes were full of worry, and he looked at Emperor Ji Xi.
"Xuan!"
Ji Xi said in a deep voice.
"yes!"
The guards hurried out of the palace and brought in the old Marquis Beichuan.
"His Majesty!"
As soon as the old Marquis of Beichuan entered the palace, he quickly came to the front of the hall, bowed his head with his hands in hand, and said with anger in his old voice:
"My home was ransacked by thieves and some of my belongings were stolen. I suspect that the perpetrators are members of the Dijiang clan!"
What? The Dijiang clan?
Hearing this name, the eyes of everyone in the hall changed.
The Dijiang clan, located in the center of the continent, controls the power of space. It is the witch clan with the weirdest abilities and the most powerful power among the six clans.
However, the Dijiang clan has always been aloof and rarely appears in other territories. How could they be reduced to stealing things from Zhu Rong Shendu.
"Are you sure it's Di Jiang?" Ji Xi frowned slightly.
The old Marquis of Beichuan said in a deep voice: "I discovered them in time, but they used their spatial abilities to escape. I will never be able to sense that kind of spatial fluctuation."
If the space fluctuates, it must be the Dijiang clan.
The ministers' hearts sank. On this continent, apart from the space monsters, only the Dijiang clan had the ability to control space. How could the monsters come to the capital to steal things?
But...this is troublesome~
The Dijiang clan will never admit it if they fail to grasp the current situation!
"Dijiang~"
Ji Xi's eyes were gloomy. If the Dijiang clan really broke the rules, then he would definitely seek an explanation from the Dijiang Kingdom.
"It can't be him, right?" Shi Zhong's eyes flickered.
"Di Jiang, the suspicion was actually on Di Jiang." Xiao Yao was very happy.
Unexpectedly, I accidentally framed him!
Hehe, Dijiang clan, just take the blame!
"Your Majesty~" Old Beichuan Marquis continued: "I also suspect that my family is not the only one who has suffered theft. If there is no Witch King sitting in the house, it may be difficult to discover their whereabouts."
Huh~
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of many ministers changed drastically, and the atmosphere in the palace immediately became tense.
Seeing the expressions of many ministers, Ji Xi knew that the banquet could no longer go on, so she said in a deep voice: "The banquet is over, everyone should go home as soon as possible!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Many ministers bowed their hands in salute and then hurried home.
"Your Highness..."
Meng Yi and others looked at Ji Chen, their faces full of anxiety. They were also worried that their home would be robbed.
"Everyone, go back quickly!"
Ji Chen said quickly.
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Everyone put down their cups and rushed out of the palace with the large army.
"Your Highness, I'm leaving too!" Xiao Yao said quite relaxedly after finishing the glass of wine.
"good!"
Ji Chen nodded and was not surprised when he saw Hu Kuang's expression.
After all, Hu Kuang is alone, so even if he steals, he can't steal from him.
But before leaving, Ji Chen asked again, "Remember, come to my house before returning."
"Yeah, I remember it!"
Xiao Yao smiled lightly.
…………
Ten minutes later, angry sounds came from many mansions.
"Damn thief, I'm going to cut you into pieces!"
"Ahhh, I'm so angry!"
"How come you losers are guarding your home!!!"
Tuqi and Yuumi sneaked into sixteen mansions in total, and most of them were successful. After all, if a big family wants to cultivate children, it is impossible for the head of the family to do everything personally, such as teaching secrets, distributing fire crystal coins, and rewarding treasures. A dedicated person will be responsible for this and the wealth will be preserved.
Almost all of these things were looted by Yumi and Tucci.
"Tsk tsk tsk, I'm rich!"
Xiao Yao sat cross-legged on the bed, counting the stolen goods in the beast control space, his pupils almost turned into the shape of money.
It has to be said that the wealth of these nobles is really rich. There are as many as 800 million in fire crystal coins alone, more than 400 secret books, and thousands of platinum and diamond level demon pills in total.
In addition, the two masters Xiang Hui and Gu Biao also have many treasures in their space equipment.
In the Xianghui space necklace, there are hundreds of demon pills, various formation materials, a large number of fire crystal coins, and his personally compiled formation experience.
Gu Biao's space equipment includes countless rare metals, hundreds of millions of fire crystal coins, and more than a dozen finished magic weapons crafted by him.
Putting everything together, I'm afraid his family's wealth is close to that of the Duke's Palace.
Getting rich overnight is called getting rich overnight!
Xiao Yao smiled so hard that he could hardly close his mouth. Sure enough, stealing and robbing is the fastest way to get rich. The criminal law will not deceive me!
That night, the gods were shaken
Teams of soldiers searched house to house, looking for clues about the Dijiang thief. In the process, the city guards discovered that formation master Xiang Hui and forging master Gu Biao had disappeared inexplicably!
Snapped!
The exquisite porcelain was smashed to the ground. Emperor Ji Xi's face was ashen and he said angrily: "Look for me. I must find this madman from Dijiang. If you can't find him, I'll ask you!"
The angry aura erupted by the Witch Emperor made the secret guard leader in the room tremble. He knelt on the ground and replied in a trembling voice:
"It's your Majesty!"
"Get off!"
"yes!"
The leader of the secret guards slowly exited the room, and after turning around, a trace of bitterness appeared on his face.
Trying to find an Emperor Jiang who has mastered spatial abilities in the vast city of God is simply more difficult than finding a needle in a haystack.
Alas~~
Zhenwuhou Mansion
After the city guard inspected it, Shi Zhong walked into the study without saying a word. Then he activated a hidden formation on the bookshelf. The bookshelf split into two and slowly separated, revealing a passage that led directly to the underground.
Shi Zhong slowly walked down the stairs to the bottom floor and saw the silver-robed man sitting cross-legged on the ground in the center of the secret room.
"Did you do it?" Shi Zhong asked directly.
The silver-robed man's voice was hoarse: "It's not me! I have always believed in fair trade and would never do such a thing."
"Not you?" Shi Zhong sneered: "So, there are other Emperor Jiang clans in the capital of gods?"
The silver-robed man was silent for a moment and said slowly: "I don't know. Logically speaking, except for businessmen like me, the Ordinary Emperor Jiang Clan cannot pass through the forbidden air barrier and enter other divine realms, but..."
The silver-robed man hesitated for a moment and said, "There are no guarantees, and I can't guarantee that something will slip through the net, but anyway, I definitely didn't do this."
Shi Zhong didn't believe the silver-robed man's words at all, but he still needed the silver-robed man's help next, so he didn't say much and just said in an indifferent tone:
"Hide well for the next few days, and leave as soon as possible after my affairs are over."
The man in silver robe nodded: "Don't worry, I understand the seriousness of the matter."
"It's best~"
Shi Zhong said coldly and then left the underground secret room.
After Shi Zhong left, the silver-robed man murmured in confusion:
"Who on earth is it?"
…………
The news of the theft of more than a dozen aristocratic mansions and the disappearance of the two masters Xiang Hui and Gu Biao was like a hurricane, sweeping through the entire divine city early in the morning, and the streets and alleys were buzzing with discussion.
"The Dijiang clan is so brave, they dare to come to our Zhu Rong Shendu and act wild."
"It's so annoying. If I find out, I will definitely kill them!"
"I heard that the Dijiang clan is very powerful. Is it true?"
"Isn't it just the space system? What's the big deal?"
"Haha, when you see the Dijiang clan, don't be so scared that you wet your pants."
"Damn it, you dare to look down on me!"
"I'm quite happy. Anyway, it's these nobles who are suffering, and it has nothing to do with us common people."
"That's right~"
Xiao Yao walked slowly on the street, feeling very proud as he listened to everyone's discussion about his "masterpiece".
This is the sense of accomplishment that makes people take the blame~
He chuckled and walked into the Alien Beast Pavilion.
Considering that after leaving Zhurong City, the hundreds of millions of fire crystal coins in his hand were of little use, so he decided to spend them slowly in the past few days, buying them all into demon pills, precious metals, formation materials, etc.
In addition, in order not to attract attention, he bought it in more than a dozen stores, and every time he went to one, it changed into a new look.
In the next few days, the city of Shen was heavily guarded and only allowed in and out, but the "Dijiang thief" was never caught.
However, the martial law and closure in the past few days have also greatly affected the normal operation of the divine capital. In desperation, Ji Xi personally ordered to lift the closure and allow free entry and exit.
On the day when the isolation was lifted, Xiao Yao knew that it was time to leave.
The next morning, Xiao Yao left Yanyang Inn and walked to Ji Chen's mansion.
Free mounts still have to be used.
Also, see if you can lure the snake out of its hole.
The corners of Xiao Yao's mouth curved slightly.
"Marquis Zhenwu, you must come to me~"
