In a remote courtyard in Yushui City!
"Sir, a batch of Xi's goods 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 figure from behind.
"Okay, I see!" The man didn't turn around, but said something in a deep voice, and then waved his hands.
The man in black quickly disappeared into the room.
The man in black left. At this time, the back slowly turned around, with a mask on his face, and his face could not be seen.
"The third time..."
"Xi's family, and Boyu Business Association, how many times can you sustain such a loss?!" Under the mask, a familiar voice came out, it was Xia Yan's voice.
Since cooperating with Zhouyun Trading Company, Qiao Dashan, the manager of Zhouyun Trading Company, ordered people to secretly investigate the purchase route and time of Xi's house.
Three days ago, a batch of goods worth 100,000 gold coins from the Xi family was robbed!
Two days ago, a batch of goods worth 200,000 gold coins from the Xi family mysteriously disappeared outside the city!
The goods were lost twice in a row, and no clues were found, as if those goods had evaporated out of thin air.
Today, another batch of large shipments from the Xi family arrived from other places. The man in black just now. It was the people arranged by Qiao Dashan to inform Xia Yan of the news.
"Whoosh..."
A black shadow, like a black ray of light, shot into the room and made a slight click.
"Tugou, go and inform Patriarch Xia Feilong that there is a batch of goods twenty miles away from the west gate!"
The one who rushed into the room just now was the dirt dog baring its teeth and sticking out its tongue.
"Aww..."
Then, the earth dog stepped forward and disappeared into the room like a shooting star.
Xia Yan, who was wearing a mask, suddenly dodged, left the room, quickly left the courtyard, and rushed towards the west gate of Yushui City.
…
"Patriarch!"
In the attached courtyard of the Xi family, several elders stood on the square. Behind these elders, dozens of family elite guards stood upright.
And in the front is Xi Potian, the head of the Xi family. Xi Potian's face was like charcoal, and his whole body was tense.
"Go, pick up this batch of goods! There must be no mistakes in this batch of goods." After a long silence, Xi Potian roared in a low voice.
"Yes, Patriarch!"
Several elders, as well as elite guards from many families. They all responded in unison.
The goods were robbed twice in succession, Xi Potian knew in his heart who did it, but there was nothing he could do. The force of the Xi family cannot compete with the other party, and he has no direct evidence to prove that the other party did it.
This time the goods were worth 500,000 gold coins. If there is another accident, the Xi family will be in crisis. Although the Boyu Business Association supports it, its support is not unlimited. When the Boyu Business Association felt that the Xi family was useless, Xi Potian believed that the Boyu Business Association would never waste a single coin on the Xi family.
This time, no matter what, the goods must be successfully delivered to Yushui City. As long as you are in the city, you are safe. The church is also obliged to maintain order in the city and protect the lives and properties of residents.
"Boom boom boom..."
Dozens of people left the Xi's house and walked quickly towards the west gate.
"The patriarch!" An old Xi patriarch stopped talking a few times, but 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 head of the temple in Yushui City?!" said the elder of the Xi family. Some do not want to believe it.
According to the rumors, Xia Yan is already at the level of a great spiritual master. If it was really him who did it, then even if they went together, they might not be Xia Yan's opponent.
You know, in the Xi family, only Xi Potian is the spiritual master now, and the most powerful of the other elders is Houtian Peak. In front of a great spirit master, is the acquired peak useful
"Hmph!" Xi Potian snorted coldly, two fierce lights burst out from his eyes, and he clenched his fists with his teeth clenched.
"It's not him, who else? In Yushui City, there is no other person who can unknowingly rob our Xi family's goods!" Xi Potian said angrily.
"Patriarch, if it's really him, then our whole clan will be mobilized, I'm afraid..." The elder expressed his worries!
"I don't believe it!" Xi Potian sneered, "Could it be that he dared to kill us all? He didn't worry about it. The Temple of Purple Leaf City came forward to trouble him? This is not in the Forest of Sin!"
Xi Potian is gambling!
He believed 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. That's why they robbed Xi's goods and then expanded their market.
Xi Potian felt that Xia Yan didn't dare to really kill the important figures of the Xi family. Especially himself, he didn't believe that Xia Yan dared to kill him. Even outside the city. Xia Yan didn't dare to do this either.
"The patriarch 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 are hall masters above the hall master. You will be under the control of 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 Xia Yan saw a group of people in front of him from a distance of a thousand meters.
His eyes were concentrated, "It's from the Xi family, and the Xi family seems to be mobilizing. Hehe, it seems that Xi Po is really in a hurry."
Xia Yan sneered and slowed down.
"Since this is the case, then I'll do it all! Who would know that I did it if he died outside the city?!" Xia Yan chuckled, "Without direct evidence, what can the temple do to me? The Xi family Dead, what do I care? Big deal. I don’t want these goods anymore.”
The corners of Xia Yan's mouth were raised, and a fierce light shot out from his eyes, and a fierce murderous aura immediately permeated, but soon, Xia Yan restrained all the murderous aura emitted, 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 be seen as an ordinary family.
"Xi Potian is dead. More than half of Xi's parents are dead. Will Boyu Commercial Bank continue to support it? Without the support of the Boyu Commercial Association, the Xi family can compete with the Xia family? The Xia family has the full support of the Zhouyun Commercial Bank .In less than a month, the Xia family will be able to control the market in Yushui City." Xia Yan's mind was spinning.
After half an hour!
"We've finally met!" Xia Yan stood in the distance, watching the two groups of people come together.
"Patriarch!"
Elder Xi, who was in charge of the escort, had a thick beard on his face. When he saw the patriarch and other elders, he went out of the city to meet the goods in person, and hurried out of the team to salute and greet the patriarch Xi Potian.
"Well, is the journey going well?!" Xi Potian looked at the elder, then turned his gaze to the goods, and asked.
"All the way, everything went smoothly!" the bearded elder said hastily.
"Well, that's good! Let's go back to Yushui City!" Xi Potian heaved a sigh of relief and nodded.
Xi Potian was also very nervous about losing the goods one after another. He was worried that the goods would be lost inexplicably again this time. Now that I see this batch of goods in person, I feel relieved and relieved.
"Continue on the road!" The bearded elder turned around and ordered the team.
"Gululu..."
A dozen or so carriages pulling various goods moved on the official road again. Patriarch Xi Potian and all the elders were in front, and the convoy was behind.
"After an hour, we will be able to safely enter Yushui City." Xi Potian thought in his heart.
"Patriarch, look!"
After a while, an elder in a blue robe and long white hair suddenly pointed forward and shouted in horror.
In front of everyone, a man in gray, wearing a mask, was standing in the middle of the road, as if he was waiting for the convoy.
"Who is that person?!" Xi Potian also saw the man in gray, who was only two hundred meters away and could see it clearly.
"Could it be..." The blue-robed elder's body shook violently, and he said something in shock, but he didn't finish his sentence.
"The people in front. Get out of the way! We are the Xi's team from Yushui City!"
When he got close, Xi Potian shouted loudly.
However, he yelled three times in a row, the man in gray didn't have any intention of getting out of the way. The man in gray holds a long sword in his hand, with his arms folded on 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. For a healer, it doesn't take a single breath to cross the distance of fifty meters.
"Who the hell are you, why are you blocking our way?!" Xi Potian took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, looked coldly at the man in gray in front, and asked.
"Moved!"
The elder in blue robe whispered with his lips.
Everyone saw that the man in gray was slowly walking towards them with a long sword. Although the speed is not fast, the distance of fifty meters is rapidly shortening.
"Stop!" Xi Potian shouted.
"I told you to stop, if you don't stop, we won't be polite!" Xi Potian's body trembled slightly, and he felt a little uneasy.
"Xia Yan, how dare you!"
When the distance between the two sides was still 20 meters, Xi Potian finally roared and called out Xia Yan's name directly. He guessed that the masked man in front of him was Xia Yan from the Xia family. Now, he is not sure in his heart. He suddenly felt that if Xia Yan killed them all here, it would not be impossible!
Thinking of this, Xi Potian's heart began to turn cold, he knew very well that his own strength was no match for Xia Yan.
"Patriarch, what should we do? He seems to want to do something!" the bearded elder asked anxiously.
Xi Potian called out Xia Yan's name, but the other party still didn't respond, and continued walking towards the Xi family's convoy.
Fifteen meters... ten meters... It's almost in front of everyone.
"Xia Yan, I recognize your sword, do you think you can't recognize you because you are wearing a mask?!" Xi Potian was a little hoarse, he was a little scared, and he didn't dare to make a move first.
