Chapter 436: Investigation

Is it just the two of us in this operation? Dongfang Xue didn't answer, but asked like this.

"Well, it's the two of us, that elder you should also know, it's the person who fought with my father when there was a conflict last time, his strength has reached the level of a spirit general, and the person who walks with him must also be a good hand in the clan, besides, our purpose this time is mainly to investigate, and if there are many people, it is inconvenient to act, so this time the action is only you and me."

When Dongfang Xue heard this, a smile appeared on her face: "No problem, anyway, I don't want to continue to stay in the family, not to mention that I don't have a good impression of the Qian family, I also want to see what they want to do this time." ”

Dongfang Xiao was happy in his heart, if Dongfang Xue was with him, he would be a little more sure of this trip.

"When's the time of the action?"

"Tonight."

"Alright, I'll go to you tonight, and we'll act together then."

"Hmm." With Dongfang Xue's approval, Dongfang Xiao didn't stay here for long, since he decided to act, he also needed more time to understand the news of the Qian family.

As soon as night fell, Dongfang Xiao and Dongfang Xue quietly left the Dongfang family, and their actions did not attract anyone's attention, even the clansmen of the Dongfang family only knew about the patriarch and the great elder, and Dongfang Xuehe's residence also hung a sign of retreat.

The two of them were quietly lurking near the Qian family, and it just so happened that Dongfang Xiao still had Shi Jian's robe in his hand that could isolate the breath, so he was not worried that the masters of the Qian family would find them. As the night gradually fell, the Qian family did not make any movement, this situation lasted until midnight, even Dongfang Xiao was a little skeptical, could it be that the Qian family temporarily changed their plans, if this was the case, I am afraid that the two of them would have to wait here all night.

Just as Dongfang Xiao's patience was about to run out, there was a sudden movement from the back door not far away.

"It's coming!" Dongfang Xiao said in a low voice, and hurriedly released his fluctuating power, and at the same time activated the effect of the robe to isolate the breath, and gradually leaned towards the direction of the back door. Not long after, a group of people and several beast carts walked out of the back door, and from the fluctuating power on their bodies, Dongfang Xiao could be sure that these people had at least reached the level of the high-level spirit fighters, and even many of them had reached the level of spirit warriors, and among this group of people, there was one person whose fluctuating power was particularly strong, presumably this person was the strongest elder of the Qian family.

"Hey, I guessed right, this guy really chose to go through the back door."

Dongfang Xiao laughed in a low voice, this is also his guess, since the Qian family chose to set off in the middle of the night, they just didn't want to attract the attention of others, so it was inferred that they were more likely to go through the back door, so Dongfang Xiao also focused on the back door, and now it was not what he expected.

And the elder of the Qian family did not choose to set off immediately, but carefully released his sensing ability, and searched carefully around, Dongfang Xiao was relieved to see this, fortunately he still had the robe made by Shi Jian in his hand, if it weren't for that, maybe they would be very likely to expose their whereabouts on this trip.

"This guy is pretty careful." Dongfang Xiao said secretly, but he paid more attention to it in his heart, the more cautious the Qian family was, the more he didn't dare to relax his vigilance, and the Qian family's actions made Dongfang Xiao affirm the importance of their actions this time.

After confirming that the surroundings were safe, the men and beast carts immediately rushed to the city gates, as if to quietly leave the city. Dongfang Xiao and Dongfang Xue naturally rushed up tightly, and they arrived at the city gate in a short time.

The city gate of Wuyang City is basically closed at night, and the matter of the city gate is controlled by the lord's mansion, even if it is a powerful family like the Dongfang family, if you want to go out of the city at night, you must obtain the approval of the city lord's mansion before you can go out of the city, and when you arrive at the city gate, one of the people in the crowd and the guards stationed at the city gate seem to say something, and the city gate will be opened immediately.

"Could it be that the City Lord's Mansion also has any connection with the Qian family?" Dongfang Xiao secretly said in his heart, the cost of the night is generally not opened, and now the Qian family's people can pass through the gate so easily, which makes him have to have some guesses.

"What are we going to do? Do you want to go through the city gates? Dongfang Xue asked.

"No, we don't go through the gates." Dongfang Xiao shook his head, if they want to pass, it is naturally not a problem, although it is said that the city gate is controlled by the city lord's mansion, but as an important figure in the Dongfang family, Chengdu Mansion still has to give this face, but if the city lord's mansion really has any connection with the Qian family, it is very likely that the matter of the two of them passing through the city gate will be known by the Qian family, which is not a good thing for Dongfang Xiao.

"Follow me."

After a while, the two of them came to Cheng Liang to point out some weak points, although the height of the city wall is basically impossible for normal people to climb, but for a cultivator of Dongfang Xiao's level, it is naturally not a problem.

"Sister Cher, come on." Dongfang Xiao suddenly stretched out his arm and hugged Dongfang Xue's willow waist.

Dongfang Xue's body stiffened, and she said with some shame: "What are you doing here?" Dongfang Xiao couldn't laugh or cry: "Naturally, I want to take you through the city wall." Dongfang Xue also reacted, she is a magician herself, if she wants to cross the city wall with magic, it is naturally not a problem, but once she uses magic, it is very likely to attract the attention of others, and Dongfang Xiao, who cultivates spiritual power, far surpasses her in speed and strength, and now the two of them have no ability to fly, she wants to pass through the city wall silently, and only with the help of Dongfang Xiao's power.

Dongfang Xiao's body sank slightly, and a faint cyan spiritual power gathered at his feet.

"Leap!"

Dongfang Xiao jumped lightly, jumping dozens of meters high, only to see his fingertips on the city wall again, his figure was raised again, and he easily crossed the city wall.

Dongfang Xiaolian reluctantly let go of Dongfang Xue's waist, although the soft feeling from his hand made him a little unbearable to let go, but he didn't dare to do anything out of the ordinary. Dongfang Xue's cheeks were crimson at this time, and the intimate contact just now made her heart beat, but the surroundings were now shrouded in night, so Dongfang Xiao didn't notice this.
