C1319 Cues
1Silver Tiger City was located in the southern part of the Linbei County. It wasn't too far from the Misty Valley, so Xiao Lang and his group spent one day before arriving at the city gates.
Before he came here, Xiao Lang had taken advantage of this time to investigate some information regarding Silver Tiger City. He discovered that there weren't any super powers occupying this city, other than the City Lord's Mansion of Silver Tiger City, the rest were all small and medium-sized forces.
As such, Xiao Lang did not hesitate and directly brought Xiao Moshen and the others into the Silver Tiger City.
Under the Poisonous Dragon's guidance, Xiao Lang found the place where the Poisonous Dragon and Xiao Dao met those people. It was a tavern called "Pleasant".
Yue Yang and the rest entered, and immediately a waiter who looked like a waiter walked over, and passionately greeted: "Dear guests, would you like to be the elites of our guests or to stay in the inn?"
Xiao Lang looked at the shop assistant, and then asked without batting an eyelid: "Where is your shopkeeper?"
"The shopkeeper is entertaining the guests. If there's anything you need, you can tell me." The shop assistant said with a smile.
Xiao Lang did not speak, he directly took out a bag of Holy Crystals from his spatial treasure and threw it at the servant, and said: "Call your shopkeeper out, these are yours."
The shop assistant caught the bag of Saint Crystals and weighed it for a while. When he found it was quite heavy, his eyes immediately lit up. He politely said, "Guest, please wait for a moment. I'll call our shopkeeper over right now."
After that, the shop assistant ran off, and Xiao Lang did not rush, and waited quietly on the spot.
Not long after, the servant led a fattening middle-aged man out. That fattening middle-aged man was the shopkeeper of this Pleasing Inn.
"Manager, it's those people who want to see you."
The doorman pointed to Xiao Lang's group and said.
The middle aged man looked in the direction the shop assistant pointed, and quickly saw Xiao Lang and the rest. However, when he saw the Poisonous Dragon behind Xiao Lang, his eyes flashed with a look of panic, but he was not an ordinary man, and quickly hid his emotions, revealing a smile and walking forward.
Hehe, I am Liu Shangde, may I know which guest is looking for me?
The self-proclaimed Liu Shangde middle-aged man cupped his fists and laughed.
Since the moment Liu Shangde had come out, Xiao Lang's gaze had always been on him. The hint of panic that appeared in Liu Shangde's eyes earlier, was naturally unable to escape from his eyes.
He calmly replied, "I'm looking for you."
Hearing that, Liu Shangde looked at Xiao Lang, and then chuckled: "Oh, I wonder what business does esteemed guest have with me?"
Xiao Lang's gaze swept across his surroundings, then looked at Liu Shangde and said: "There's too many people here, it's better to find somewhere else to talk."
Hearing that, Liu Shangde's eyelids twitched, but he did not reject, nodded his head and said: "Alright, then let's go to the private room upstairs to talk!"
After saying that, Liu Shangde made a inviting gesture, and then led Xiao Lang and his group to the elegant room on the second floor of the inn.
Liu Shangde called for the waiter to bring some good wine and dishes over, and then he closed the door to the private room. He looked at Xiao Lang and smiled: "May I know how to address this guest?"
"Xiao Lang."
Xiao Lang said his name.
"So it's Fellow Daoist Xiao."
Liu Shangde laughed: "I wonder why Fellow Daoist Xiao is looking for me?"
Xiao Lang did not answer, but instead took the teapot on the table and poured himself a cup of tea, after carefully tasting it, after finishing the cup of tea, he pointed at Poisonous Dragon and said: "You should know him, right?"
Hearing that, Liu Shangde's face jumped. He looked at the Poisonous Dragon, and carefully examined it for a while. Then, he shook his head and said: "I don't really recognize it. "Could it be that this guest has been in my shop before?"
Xiao Lang poured another cup of tea and placed it next to his mouth as he took a small sip. Only then did he say: "They did indeed come once, and it was three days ago. It's just that at that time, there were two of them and the other person has already disappeared."
"What?"
Hearing this, Liu Shangde's face revealed shock, and he said: "How did you disappear?"
"This is the reason why I came to find you. I also want to ask you, why did my brother disappear?"
Xiao Lang glanced at Liu Shangde and said indifferently. That seemingly casual appearance, but in reality, it was already hiding a sharp edge that could be revealed at any time.
Liu Shangde's heart trembled slightly. He forced a smile and said: "Fellow Daoist Xiao must be joking, I'm just a merchant that does business, how would I know why my brother went missing."
"Do you really not know?" Xiao Lang glanced at Liu Shangde and said softly.
"Then how can it be fake? "I am just a businessman, how would I know about these things? If you don't have anything else, I will leave first." Liu Shangde said in a slightly displeased tone.
After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the private room.
Seeing that Liu Shangde seemed to be angry, Xiao Lang did not continue asking, but the corner of his mouth raised in a demonic smile. Putting down the teacup in his hand, he moved, instantly surpassing Liu Shangde and blocking the latter's path.
"What does Fellow Daoist mean by that? Could it be that I have no choice but to say I don't know? "
Liu Shangde shouted somewhat angrily, but Xiao Lang could clearly see that deep within the latter's eyes, there was a trace of panic that was concealed very deeply.
"This room is already separated by the Degenerator Space. You'd better speak honestly, or else I won't be able to guarantee that I'll do anything to you."
Xiao Lang laughed coldly, he could no longer suppress the aura on his body, and it was slowly being released.
"Later Period of World Stage expert?!"
Feeling the terrifying aura seeping out from Xiao Lang's body, Liu Shangde finally revealed a shocked expression, and instantly became a lot more obedient. His strength was only around the Ninth Rank Void True God, and he hadn't even reached the World Stage yet. It was possible for him to just kill him off, but other than thinking that he was unlucky, there was nothing else for him to argue. Because of all of these reasons, other than being a little more honest, Liu Shangde had no other choice.
Liu Shangde suppressed the anger in his heart, and then said with an embarrassed smile: "Fellow Daoist, I am just a small tavern's shopkeeper, I don't even know your friends, why would I lie to you?"
Xiao Lang said indifferently: "Don't worry, are you lying to me? I only need to look through your memories to know. However, I have to remind you in advance that searching your memories will have side effects. Doing so might harm your soul and affect your future cultivation. "
After saying that, without giving Liu Shangde any time to think, Xiao Lang directly extended two of his fingers toward Liu Shangde's forehead.
Seeing that, Liu Shangde's face changed, he knew the aftermath of being searched for memories, it was an extremely dangerous matter, unless Xiao Lang was from Sovereign of Epoch Stage, he could accurately control his own soul, and it would not harm the soul, but obviously, Xiao Lang was not.
More importantly, he felt guilty! Once Xiao Lang found out something, it was very likely that the person would directly kill him with his or her strength. At that time, he wouldn't even have the chance to explain.
Thinking about it, Liu Shangde had no choice but to surrender, and laughed bitterly: "Please wait Fellow Daoist, I am willing to speak the truth."
Hearing this, Xiao Lang stopped. He looked at Liu Shangde, and coldly said: "Wouldn't we have ended like this earlier?"
Liu Shangde laughed awkwardly.
"Alright, speak! "Remember, if I find out that you are lying, don't blame me for not giving you a chance."
Xiao Lang said directly.
Liu Shangde laughed bitterly, how could he still dare to lie right now? If Xiao Lang found out, his death would be in vain.
Therefore, Liu Shangde pointed to the Poisonous Dragon, and laughed bitterly: "Fellow Daoist is right, I do know this Fellow Daoist you are talking about."
Xiao Lang nodded his head, for this point, when he noticed Liu Shangde coming out, the other party had already revealed a look of panic, and he had already guessed it, if not, he would not have directly attacked Liu Shangde.
Liu Shangde continued to speak: "Three days ago, this Fellow Daoist came to my inn with his friend. This was originally a very common occurrence, but before this Fellow Daoist came, someone had already arrived at my inn to find me, and asked me to help them with something."
"What is it?" Xiao Lang asked.
"They asked me to arrange for a few people to release the news of a divine medicine appearing near the Misty Valley and lure this Fellow Daoist and his brother over." Liu Shangde said in embarrassment.3
Xiao Lang's expression did not change as he said, "Continue."
At that time, I didn't want to do this, but because of the high conditions the other party gave, as well as the fear of offending those people, we agreed to it. After that, we worked together and purposefully released the fake news of a divine medicine appearing near the Misty Valley, leading this Fellow Daoist and his friends to take the bait. Liu Shangde laughed.
Xiao Lang nodded, and said: "One last question, who are those people that asked you to release false information?"
Liu Shangde's heart thumped, but he thought that he still came. He could not afford to offend those people, but at the same time, he also offended the inconspicuous Xiao Lang.
Xiao Lang looked at him, and then said indifferently: "If you speak the truth now, at least you can live for now."
Liu Shangde's face shook, but he could only laugh bitterly under his helplessness: "Forget it, who told me to be confused for a moment, I brought this upon myself. Those people who asked me to release false information, they are from the Silver Tiger City's Black Cloud Gang."
"Black Cloud Gang?"
Hearing this, Xiao Lang revealed a puzzled expression. He had only just arrived at Silver Tiger City after all, so it was normal for him to not know about Silver Tiger City's Black Cloud Gang.
Liu Shangde saw the confusion on Xiao Lang's face and explained, "Yes, Black Cloud Gang is a great power of Silver Tiger City and is extremely powerful. The person who came to find me at that time, was precisely the vice Sect Master of Black Cloud Gang ? ? Hei Song."
