Xie Yuxin, who was checking the task on the side, couldn't help but frowned when she heard Shen Luo's words and looked over here.
"Well... Mr. Xie has a high level of cultivation and has always acted prudently. This is the second time he has delivered a task, so there is no need to verify anything. You still need to verify it briefly on your side, it's just a procedure, it's not a problem." The Bai family's steward said hurriedly.
"Can you be compared with Xie Keqing? Manager, you'd better investigate carefully! This red cloth might have been picked up by him, we must not let him get away with it." Chu Li reacted and stepped forward and said.
"We will check the status of your tasks, whether you have completed them and whether you have completed them on your own. We will not miss anyone and will not treat anyone unfairly." The Bai family's steward glanced at Chu Li and said calmly.
When Chu Li heard this, anger flashed in his eyes, but he didn't say anything.
"Don't worry, Mr. Shen, this is the normal procedure. If you have indeed completed the task, someone will send the task reward to your residence." Another manager said to Shen Luo with a slight apology.
"Then I'll trouble you two." Upon hearing this, Shen Luo nodded, bowed slightly to the two of them, turned around and walked towards his residence.
Seeing Shen Luo leave, Xie Yuxin also withdrew her gaze.
Those who completed the task didn't care, but the few people who returned empty-handed today were all like Chu Li. They were unwilling to believe that Shen Luo could really complete the task. They looked at his back one by one, with doubt in their eyes.
At this moment, two figures appeared in the distance and walked towards them side by side. They were Taoist Baishui and Wu Tong.
"Master Baishui, Fellow Daoist Wutong, I remember that you also went to carry out the mission in Hongye Town. How was the mission going? Has it been completed? Who did it?" Chu Li immediately went up to them and asked.
Taoist Baishui and Wu Tong looked at each other with gloomy faces, without saying anything.
"What's wrong with you? Why aren't you talking? Could it really be that Shen Luo?" Feng Ling shook his folding fan, half believing and half asking.
Chu Li also looked over, his eyes twitched, and a trace of uneasiness flashed across his face.
"Yes, it was indeed that Shen Luo who did it." Taoist Baishui sighed lightly and nodded helplessly.
As soon as these words were spoken, the people who had previously questioned Shen Luo were suddenly speechless.
"It's really him, how is this possible!" someone exclaimed after a moment.
"Yeah, isn't it said that he is only at the middle stage of Qi Refining? I heard that the strength of the water ghost in Hongye Town is at least equivalent to that of a cultivator in the late stage of Qi Refining!"
"Could it be that this person has other means?"
“How is it possible…” Chu Li felt a burning sensation on his face and murmured.
"Master Baishui, Wu Tong, did you see clearly how Shen Luo killed the ghost in Hongye Town?" At this time, a cold voice sounded, and it was Xie Yuxin who walked over.
"This is what happened. After Fellow Daoist Wu and I arrived at Hongye Town..." Taoist Baishui then roughly recounted the process of Shen Luo killing the female ghost in red.
"Oh, so it's the power of talismans." After hearing this, Xie Yuxin showed a hint of disappointment on her face.
She originally thought that Shen Luo had hidden his strength and developed a little interest in him.
When he heard that he was just a guy who relied on a large number of talismans to force his way through, his interest disappeared completely and he turned around to continue checking the task list.
