Chapter 17: The Master Awakens

Xiao Wu couldn't help but think of Daming and Erming. She hadn't been back for several years, and it was indeed time to go back and see them.

"it is good."

Li Wei nodded: "Okay, after I buy you the shoes, we'll find a place to eat, then find a hotel to rest for the night, and set off first thing tomorrow morning."

"Mmm-hmm," Xiao Wu nodded vigorously.

Li Wei then took Xiao Wu to several shoe stores. After buying the shoes, he took her to the best restaurant in the city and ordered all the restaurant's specialties.

"Wow...it smells so good."

Xiao Wu, who had never been to such a high-class restaurant before, was immediately attracted by the delicious-looking and fragrant dishes, and her mouth watered.

"Let's eat, don't be shy."

Li Wei picked up a piece of pork rib and placed it in her bowl.

"Okay." Xiao Wu immediately picked up her chopsticks.

The two ate and chatted. Although they had just met, they got along quite naturally and there was no awkwardness between strangers.

Of course, there was no ambiguity either.

……

Nottingham City, Xiao Mansion.

"What are you guys doing? Haven't you found a single clue after all this time? She's a grown woman, she can't just vanish into thin air, can she?"

Tang San, enraged, questioned him.

The steward of the Xiao family glanced at him coldly and said, "Boy, you seem to have misunderstood something."

Our city lord is willing to help you because you are our young master's classmate, not because we are obligated to do you this favor.

It's a favor if we help you, and it's our right not to.

It's one thing if you don't know how to be grateful, but where do you get the nerve to yell and shout here?

Tang San's face gradually darkened, and he coldly questioned, "So you didn't actually go looking for it, and you were just making me wait to appease me, right?"

"Heh heh!" The steward of the Xiao family laughed in exasperation.

He had been a steward in the city lord's mansion for many years and had seen all sorts of people.

This is the first time I've seen someone like this.

"Okay, very good."

Tang San got the answer from his mocking smile and gritted his teeth as he squeezed out a few words.

The Xiao family could refuse, but they should never deceive themselves, because once the best opportunity is missed, it will be difficult to find useful clues again.

The Xiao family has already found a way to bring about their own demise.

Tang San never spoke to the dead, and left the Xiao residence directly.

Don't rush into action.

After destroying the Xiao family, we must leave Notting City; we'll have to wait until the teacher wakes up.

Tang San did not return to Notting Academy. Instead, he followed the path from Xiao Mansion to Notting Academy, asking shop owners and vendors from house to house.

pity.

With so many people coming and going on the street every day, who would remember a little girl?

Tang San returned to the academy empty-handed.

"Teacher, you're awake?"

When Tang San returned to the infirmary, he was surprised to find that Yu Xiaogang had woken up early, and Dean Notting and the school doctor were also in the infirmary.

Yu Xiaogang stared blankly at the ceiling, as if he hadn't heard Tang San's words, which made Tang San inexplicably irritated.

I lost my little dance while trying to take care of you.

You woke up and still gave me the cold shoulder.

Dean Notting said helplessly, "Let your teacher have some peace and quiet."

Tang San glanced sideways: "Xiao Wu has disappeared."

"What?" Dean Notting was startled.

That's a genius with innate full soul power.

Missing?

Tang San looked at Yu Xiaogang: "Teacher, Xiao Wu disappeared while helping you track down the murderer. She must have been captured by that masked man. Who exactly is that man?"

Yu Xiaogang was slightly taken aback. Xiao Wu had disappeared while helping him track down the murderer?

"Why!"

Yu Xiaogang sighed heavily: "I don't know who he is either. He didn't show his face at all, and he didn't even reveal his martial spirit."

Tang San inexplicably felt an urge to punch him.

We were messed up like this, and in the end, we didn't get any intelligence or information.

How could he be so useless?

Tang San asked unwillingly, "Then do you have any enemies?"

Yu Xiaogang thought for a moment and then shook his head.

It's not that there aren't any, but rather that there are too many to analyze.

Tang San clenched his fist instantly.

Without any information, where is he supposed to find Xiao Wu?

"Bang!"

Enraged, Tang San kicked the chair so hard it smashed to pieces.

Dean Notting: "..."

Yu Xiaogang said with hatred in his eyes, "Don't worry about this. It's not something you can handle. Leave it to me."

He had sworn that if he could return alive, he would use all his strength to find the other party and make him wish he were dead.

"???"

Tang San looked him up and down, thinking to himself, "You're already like this, what's the point of dealing with this?"

"Um?"

Yu Xiaogang frowned slightly; Tang San's gaze made him very uncomfortable.

"You can go out now."

Tang San: "..."

"call!"

Tang San let out a heavy sigh, suppressing his anger as he retreated.

The school doctor was also kicked out by Yu Xiaogang.

Yu Xiaogang looked at Dean Notting: "Help me write three letters."

……

After finishing their meal, Li Wei and his companion went to a hotel and booked two rooms.

"A 100,000-year-old soul beast in human form naturally cultivates faster than a human. Now that you've learned the Mysterious Heaven Technique, if your cultivation speed still can't improve..."

Li Wei looked at Xiao Wu, who had just opened her eyes, with a strong sense of threat.

I won't let you down.

Xiao Wu's expression was serious, but she was extremely excited inside.

The Mysterious Heaven Technique is simply amazing! It's much faster than ordinary meditation cultivation methods, and with her natural advantages, she's confident she can advance to the Soul Venerable level within a year and a half.

"Remember what you said today. If I don't see results soon, you're in for a lot of trouble." Li Wei put a lot of pressure on her directly.

"Hmph!" Xiao Wu gave a haughty snort. "I definitely won't give you that chance."

Li Wei nodded: "That would be best."

"Then I'll go back to my room to cultivate."

Xiao Wu got up and, after receiving a signal from Li Wei, returned to her room.

"That's all for today, guys. Goodnight."

Li Wei waved at the camera and abruptly ended the live stream, not even giving them a chance to say goodbye, which drew a chorus of curses from the crowd.

"Ding! Live stream ended, popularity points being calculated..."

"Ding! Popularity points successfully calculated. Congratulations, host, you have gained 3265 popularity points, which have been credited to your system wallet."

Li Wei murmured, "This is significantly less than when Gangzi was executed. It seems there is still a certain correlation between popularity and the amount of rewards."

¥8249

Li Wei glanced at his wallet, wondering if he could afford to draw a martial spirit from it.

"Take a shower first, then enter the prize draw."

Li Wei took off his clothes and went into the bathroom, washing himself thoroughly. After coming out, he sat on the sofa and prayed for a while.

"Ten consecutive pulls, give me the chance to win!"

"Knock knock knock..."

The sound effect of the three-cent lottery then plays, just like a slot machine. Each time a prize is won, there is a pause and a corresponding sound effect.

[Gold Soul Coins * 258]

[Gold Soul Coins * 56]

[Gold Soul Coins * 359]

……

Ten consecutive draws, all of them were gold soul coins, which made Li Wei's face turn green.

"Damn, again!"
