Chapter 394: Catch them all
Inside a remote courtyard in Yushui City!
"Sir, a batch of goods from the Xi family has arrived on the official road thirty miles outside the west gate of Yushui City!"
A man in black quietly entered a room and reported to a back. 【Reading.com】
"Okay, I see!" the man didn't turn around, but said in a deep voice, then waved his hand.
The man in black quickly disappeared into the room.
The man in black left, and at this time, the back slowly turned around, wearing a mask on his face, and he couldn't see his face.
"It's ...... for the third time"
"The Xi family, and the Boyu Chamber of Commerce, how many times can you support such a loss?" Under the mask, a familiar voice came out, which was Xia Yan's voice.
Since cooperating with Zhouyun Commercial Bank, Qiao Dashan, the general manager of Zhouyun Commercial Bank, has ordered someone to secretly investigate the purchase route and time of the Xi family.
Three days ago, a batch of goods worth 100,000 gold coins was robbed of the Xi family!
Two days ago, a batch of goods worth 200,000 gold coins from the Xi family disappeared outside the city for some reason!
Lost twice in a row and didn't find any clues, as if those goods had evaporated out of thin air.
Today, the Xi family has another batch of bulk goods transported from other places, and the man in black just now, who is the person arranged by Qiao Dashan, informed Xia Yan of the news.
"Whoosh~"
A black shadow, like a black light, shot into the room with a slight click.
"Earth dog, go and inform Patriarch Xia Feilong, just say that there is a batch of goods twenty miles away from the West Gate!"
It was the earth dog that had just crept into the room with its teeth bared and its tongue sticking out.
"Whew......"
Then, the earth dog stepped out of all fours and disappeared into the room like a meteor.
Xia Yan, who was wearing a mask, suddenly dodged, left the room, quickly walked out of this courtyard, and rushed towards the west gate of Yushui City.
............................................................ "Patriarch!"
In the courtyard attached to the Xi family, several elders stood in the square, and behind these elders, dozens of family elite guards were all standing straight.
And at the front, it was Xi Potian, the head of the Xi family. Xi Potian, his face was like black charcoal, and his whole body was tense.
"Let's go, go pick up this batch of goods! This batch of goods, there must be no mistakes. After being silent for a while, Xi Potian roared in a deep voice.
"Yes, Patriarch!"
Several elders, as well as the elite guards of many families, all responded in unison.
The goods were robbed twice in a row, and Xi Potian knew in his heart who did it, but he was helpless. The Xi family's force cannot compete with the other party, and he does not have any direct evidence to prove that the other party did it.
This time, the goods were worth half a million gold coins. If there is another accident, the Xi family will be in crisis. Although the Boyu Chamber of Commerce supports, this support is not unlimited. When the Boyu Chamber of Commerce felt that the Xi family had no use value, Xi Potian believed that the Boyu Chamber of Commerce would never waste a copper plate on the Xi family.
This time, no matter what, this batch of goods must be successfully connected to Yushui City. As long as you get to the city, it's safe. The church also has the obligation to maintain order in the city and protect the lives and property of the residents.
"Knock knock~"
Dozens of people left the Xi family's house and walked quickly towards the west gate.
"Patriarch!" a member of the Xi family stopped talking a few more times, but still couldn't help but speak.
"What's the matter?" Xi Potian glanced at the elder and asked.
"The person who robbed our goods, could it be Xia Yan, the current hall master of the Jade Water City Holy Hall?" The elder of the Xi family was a little reluctant to believe it in his heart.
It is rumored that Xia Yan is already the realm strength of the Great Spirit Master. If he really did it, then even if they go together, they may not be Xia Yan's opponents.
You must know that the Xi family, now only Xi Potian is a spirit master, and the other elders, the most powerful is the peak of the day after tomorrow. In front of the Great Spirit Master, is the peak of the day after tomorrow useful?
"Hmph!" Xi Potian snorted coldly, two fierce lights burst out of his eyes, and he gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.
"It's not him, who else? In Yushui City, there is no second person who can unknowingly rob our Xi family's goods except him!" Xi Potian said angrily.
"Patriarch, if it's really him, then even if our whole clan is dispatched, I'm afraid it will ......" The elder expressed the worry in his heart!
"I don't believe it!" Xi Potian sneered, "Could it be that he dares to kill us all? He doesn't worry that the Purple Leaf City Sanctuary will come forward to trouble him? Here, it's not in the Forest of Sins!"
Xi Potian is gambling!
He believes that the reason why the Xia family robbed his Xi family's goods was because the Xia family did not have a channel to purchase goods. Therefore, he hijacked the goods of the Xi family, and then expanded his own market.
Xi Potian felt that Xia Yan didn't dare to really kill the important people of the Xi family. Especially himself, he didn't believe that Xia Yan dared to kill himself. Even outside the city, Xia Yan didn't dare to do this.
"What the patriarch said is right, after all, Xia Yan is the hall master of the mainland county, if he does this, the temple will definitely not let him go! The hall master is not the biggest, there is a hall master above the hall master, and the hall master must be controlled by the Holy Emperor!" several elders nodded and said.
"Whoosh~"
A gray shadow, after leaving the city, quickly rushed along the official road, it was Xia Yan wearing a mask.
"Huh?" Xia Yan's body paused slightly, and from a distance of thousands of meters, Xia Yan saw a group of people in front of him.
His eyes condensed, "It's the people of the Xi family, and the Xi family seems to have gone out of the nest." Hehe, it seems that Xi Potian is really in a hurry. ”
Xia Yan sneered and slowed down.
"In that case, then I'll catch them all! Die outside the city, who can know that I did it?" Xia Yan chuckled, "There is no direct evidence, the temple, what can I do? The Xi family is dead, what does it matter to me? It's a big deal, these goods are gone." ”
The corners of Xia Yan's mouth rose, the fierce light in his eyes shot out, and the fierce murderous aura suddenly spread, but soon, Xia Yan converged all the murderous aura that emanated, and fell far behind this group of people.
As long as Xi Potian and these elders die, the Xi family will be completely finished! Even if the Xi family does not leave Yushui City, it will not have any impact on the Xia family. The Xi family can only see the reduction to an ordinary family.
"Xi Potian died, and more than half of the elders of the Xi family died. Will the Boyu Commercial Bank continue to support it? Without the support of the Boyu Chamber of Commerce, the Xi family can compete with the Xia family, but with the full support of the Zhou Yun Commercial Bank. In less than a month, the Xia family will be able to control the market in Yushui City. Xia Yan's thoughts were spinning in his heart.
Half an hour later!
"It's finally converged!" Xia Yan stood in the distance, watching the two groups of people converge.
"Patriarch!"
The elder Xi family, who was in charge of the escort, had a thick beard on his face, and when he saw the patriarch and the elders, he personally went out of the city to greet the goods, and hurriedly ran out of the team to salute in front of the patriarch Xi Potian.
"Well, the road is going well, right?" Xi Potian looked at the elder, turned his gaze to the goods, and asked.
"All the way, all the way, all the way!" the bearded elder said quickly.
"Well, that's good!Let's go, let's go back to Yushui City!" Xi Potian breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.
Xi Potian was also very nervous about the loss of goods one after another, he was worried that the goods would be lost inexplicably this time. Now that I have seen this batch of goods in person, I am relieved and relieved.
"Keep going!" Bearded Elder turned, commanding the group.
"Gollum~"
More than a dozen horse-drawn carts pulling various goods moved on the official road again. Patriarch Xi Potian and the elders were in front, and the convoy was behind.
"In an hour, we will be able to enter Jade Water City safely. Xi Potian thought in his heart.
"Look, patriarch!"
After a while, an elder with blue robes and white hair suddenly pointed ahead and shouted in horror.
In front of the crowd, a man in gray, wearing a mask, was standing in the middle of the road, seemingly waiting for the convoy.
"Who is that?" Xi Potian also saw the man in gray, who was only more than two hundred meters away at this time, and he could see it clearly.
"Could it be ......" The blue-robed elder's body shook violently and said in shock, but he didn't finish his words.
"People in front, get out of the way! We are the Xijia team of Yushui City!"
When he got closer, Xi Potian shouted loudly.
However, he shouted three times in a row, and the man in gray had no intention of getting out of the way. The man in gray held a long sword in his hand, his arms folded in front of his chest, and a mask on his face.
"Stop!" Xi Potian finally waved his hand to stop the convoy.
At this time, they were only fifty meters away from the man in gray. This distance of fifty meters, for the spirit master, does not need a breath time to cross at all.
"Who are you, and why are you blocking our way?" Xi Potian took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, looked coldly at the gray-clothed man in front of him, and asked.
"It's moving!"
The blue-robed elder pursed his lips and said.
Everyone saw that the man in gray was holding a long sword and slowly walked towards them. Although the speed is not fast, the distance of 50 meters is rapidly shortening.
"Stop!" Xi Potian shouted.
"I'll let you stop, if you don't stop, we're welcome!" Xi Potian's body trembled slightly, and he felt a little uneasy in his heart.
"Xia Yan, you dare!"
When there was still twenty meters between the two sides, Xi Potian finally roared and directly called out Xia Yan's name. He guessed that the masked man in front of him was Xia Yan of the Xia family. Now, he can't be sure in his heart. He suddenly felt that if Xia Yan killed them all here, it would not be impossible!
Thinking like this, Xi Potian's heart began to chill, he knew very well that his strength was not Xia Yan's opponent at all.
"Patriarch, what should I do?" he seems to be about to do it!" Bearded Elder asked anxiously.
Xi Potian called out Xia Yan's name, but the other party still didn't have any reaction and continued to walk towards the Xi family's convoy.
Fifteen meters...... 10 meters ...... Seeing it, it was about to come to everyone.
"Xia Yan, I recognize your sword, do you think you don't recognize you when you wear a mask?" Xi Potian was a little hoarse, he was a little frightened, and he didn't dare to make the first move.
