If it weren't for the assistance of the Nine Nether Flames just now, Xiao Chen estimated that he would also suffer a little loss in Wei Xizhong's hands this time, although the strength of that old thing was not good, at most it would be a little skin injury, but if he was beaten by someone who was lower than his own strength, it would still be a little unpleasant, how embarrassing it would be!

"Master Shangxian, you are too modest! Aren't your magic weapons quite powerful? Not only is there a flying sword that can be controlled independently, but the blue-purple flame is also very awesome, even the mane of the ancient spirit beast can be burned in an instant, did you not pay attention to the expression of Wei Xizhong at that time, as if you had seen a ghost! Gong Shaoxi patted his thigh and said.

In fact, Gong Shaoxi was a little surprised in his heart, how could Xiao Qiang, as an immortal, not even know what the principle of the magic weapon was? But soon he helped Xiao Shangxian find a good reason, Gong Shaoxi felt that Xiao Qiang must have studied under a certain hidden sect or great immortal, so he didn't know much about the outside world, it must be like this!

"yes, yes, we were standing behind you and looking at the old guy, and I felt like he was scared silly!" Hong Zhu nodded again and again, recalling the previous scene, and still had a feeling of unfinished.

"Hey, I thought at the time, if I can get this magic weapon from the Immortal Master one day, even if I am allowed to live twenty years less, I am willing!" Gong Shaoxi's eyes flashed with gold stars, and he sighed with envy.

"I want it too! I want it too! Hong Zhu seemed to be woken up by Gong Shaoxi, and immediately grabbed Xiao Chen's arm and shook it, shouting unrelentingly: "Xiao Qiang's husband, I don't dare to ask for too rare magic weapon sister, I feel disgusting about the hair of an ancient spirit beast." You can play with the flying sword for me! Or you can get a new one and give it to me! ”

"Uh...... All right. In the future, if you have a chance, I will help you grab some flying swords to use! Xiao Chen was so entangled by the candle that he couldn't do it. I had to nod helplessly and agreed.

However, Xiao Chen had a different idea in his heart: Do you think the flying sword is so easy to get? Even my flying sword is particularly ill-fated! It's been smashed and rebuilt several times!

Besides, even if you really have a flying sword, you may not be able to control it, although everyone is an immortal cultivator, but there is still an essential gap, if the perception of the divine sense is not in place, then with the flying sword I don't know how to use it!

Hong Zhu and Gong Shaoxi naturally didn't know Xiao Chen's inner complaints, and they danced happily just by hearing his promise.

At this time, they had already walked to the back of the courtyard, and at the door of the warehouse that the thin thief had said before, Gong Shaoxi trotted forward. Pushed open the door of the warehouse!

As soon as the door opened, I saw that it was full of all kinds of natural treasures, as well as many looted treasures, the wooden shelves against the wall were full, and there were a few crooked wooden boxes stacked in the corner.

Hong Zhu hurriedly ran over, opened one of the boxes and found that it was full of spirit crystals, which shows that these bandits usually do harm the merchants of Liuxian County!

Seeing that the two of them looked full of joy after making a fortune, Xiao Chen's expression was very flat. He looked around the storeroom, and did not follow in, but frowned slightly, and clasped his hands to his chest. Leaning against the edge of the doorframe, he bowed his head and fell into deep thought.

In Xiao Chen's opinion, these bandits don't seem to be as simple as they seem. There may be more powerful backers behind them!

Xiao Chen also has his own reasons for making such an inference. When he set fire to the house in the air just now, he realized that the scale of this place was very large. It's not like it can be made by ordinary bandits, and there are still many immortal cultivators in this courtyard who have cultivated in the Jindan period!

You must know that even in a sect like the Burning Heaven Sect, there are not many disciples in the Jindan period, how can a group of bandits have such high ability? If that's the case, then why are they still bandits? Isn't it much more stable to go out and find a random place to be a bodyguard than a bandit?

Moreover, the bandit leader Wei Xizhong, although he has the cultivation of the Great Perfection of the Yuan Infant Stage, Xiao Chen can feel that this guy lacks a kind of leadership momentum in his bones, and he looks more like a follower or an elder, belonging to the type that has no opinions at all, but just acts brutally with strength!

Even if it is Duan Suqing, the head of the Burning Heaven Sect, although his strength is not high, but as the head of the sect, his temperament is more high-end and atmospheric, and naturally there is a kind of prestige exuding from a person in a high position, which is more than Wei Xizhong!

These points are where Xiao Chen's doubts lie, if it is really as he deduced, there is still power behind these bandits, then if this force is not found out, I am afraid that these bandits will make a comeback in other ways!

And most importantly, after this defeat, these people may not be so easy to deal with!

Thinking of this, Xiao Chen couldn't help but feel a little faintly remorseful, he knew that he didn't let those escaped thieves go just now, but detained them for careful interrogation!

At that time, I didn't think about it so much, and I thought that these people were just Wei Xizhong's subordinates, ordinary robbers, so I let them go, and wanted them to do some serious business, but now that I think about it, it is estimated that it is not that simple!

I have to say that Xiao Chen's intuition is sometimes surprisingly accurate, those bandits are indeed not in their own right, but just a small toy under a huge force!

The group of bandits and other unnoticed people who were let go by Xiao Chen took advantage of the chaos to escape from the lair, and gathered together again, and after a short meeting, they dispersed into two groups.

Some of them ran into the mountains and hid, while the other part sneaked into Liuxian County, found different places to stay, and then immediately reported the situation to Shangfeng, who was one level higher than Wei Xizhong, and then quietly hid in the hidden place of Liuxian County, waiting for the next order.

A few hundred kilometers away from Liuxian County, in a mansion in a prosperous city, people are busy coming and going.

The strange thing is that although there are a lot of people walking around, but there is not a single figure near a room in the middle of the backyard, everyone seems to be afraid of this place, and they all walk around when they pass by, and their steps are very light, for fear of alarming the people talking in the room.

In the room, there was an old man in purple sitting in the guest seat, and in the main seat, there was a middle-aged man reclining on the backrest, his face was still wrapped in a thin gauze, and he couldn't see his appearance clearly, but his exposed eyes flashed from time to time, and he looked very powerful.
