Chapter 137 They really think highly of her!
Gao Huo was so angry that he stomped his feet, but there was no other way at the moment.
I lingered at the street corner for a while, waiting for my emotions to calm down a bit.
She removed the invisibility talisman, revealing her figure, and strode towards Wanbaolou once again.
Upon entering the store, Gao Huohuo grabbed a waiter and immediately began to question him.
The shop assistant was startled by her sudden action. After understanding the question, he quickly explained with a smile:
"Miss, you may not know this, but Young Master Tang has bought up everything you've tried."
However, they didn't take it with them; it's just left in our shop. We specifically instructed that no one is allowed to touch these things; you can only pick them up in person.
As he spoke, the waiter quickly took out a storage bag.
He quickly packed the weapons into the container and respectfully handed it to Gao Huohuo.
Gao Huohuo felt a chill run down his spine and wondered to himself: What exactly is this guy up to?
After hesitating for a moment, she gritted her teeth and reached out to take the storage bag.
Oh well, I can always find some other rare items to exchange with him later. Anyway, I have plenty of good things in my storage ring.
"Go and send a message to Young Master Tang, and tell him that I have arranged to meet him at the teahouse across the street."
After saying that, Gao Huohuo flipped his wrist and threw out twenty low-grade spirit stones, which landed steadily in the waiter's hand.
Consider this your errand fee.
The shopkeeper's eyes widened instantly, and he hurriedly took the spirit stone.
After exchanging a few words with the others in the shop, he rushed out as if his eyebrows were on fire.
As he walked, he clicked his tongue in amazement: he had thought this female cultivator was a poor wretch, but he never expected her to be so generous.
Gao Huohuo strolled leisurely to the teahouse across the street and found a private room to sit down.
In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Young Master Tang pushed open the door and entered.
Without further ado, Gao Huohuo laid out all the weapons from his storage bag on the table.
Her beautiful eyes held a hint of authority as she stared directly at Tang Xuan, her gaze full of inquiry.
"My name is Tang Xuan," Tang Xuan first bowed slightly, then looked at Gao Huohuo with gentle eyes.
"May I ask your name, fellow Daoist?"
“Bai Qiang,” Gao Huohuo replied coldly and directly.
"Speak, what is it about? I don't believe you would give me these weapons for no reason."
"That's natural," Tang Xuan said with a slight wry smile, frankly admitting, "To be honest, I do have a favor to ask of you, fellow Daoist."
Upon hearing this, Gao Huohuo frowned slightly, her heart filled with suspicion.
"You, the son of a city lord, are asking me for help?"
"If you're going to look for someone, you should look for someone at the Nascent Soul stage!"
“You are much stronger than those who have reached the Nascent Soul stage,” Tang Xuan said, his eyes burning with confidence as he looked at Gao Huohuo.
"Of course I'll ask you for help."
Gao Huohuo looked bewildered, increasingly puzzled: "What do you mean?"
Tang Xuan didn't answer, but flicked his wrist and summoned a magic weapon.
The magical artifact instantly shone brightly, transforming into a crystal-clear light curtain that completely enveloped the room.
After doing all this, he solemnly began to explain:
“My mother was a cultivator of the demon race, born into the fox clan. I was fortunate enough to inherit her innate supernatural power, which allows me to see the connection between a person and me.”
"Fate?" Gao Huohuo blinked. Did this mean she could go on a blind date anytime?
Seeing that Gao Huohuo's eyes were starting to wander, clearly indicating that he had misunderstood him, Tang Xuan quickly waved his hand to explain.
"It's not the kind of fate you're thinking of. The fate I'm talking about refers to whether being with this person will be beneficial or harmful to me in the future."
And you are the person I have met so far with the deepest connection, which is why I have taken the liberty of coming here to earnestly request your help.
Are you sure you're just helping out? There are no other conditions attached?
Gao Huohuo stared intently at Tang Xuan, trying to find a flaw in his expression.
Tang Xuan nodded solemnly, his expression completely genuine.
"By the way, you've always pretended to be a spoiled rich kid outside, is that related to the favor I need to do?"
Gao Huohuo was quick-witted. Recalling Tang Xuan's previous behavior, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind, and she blurted out the question.
Upon hearing Gao Huohuo's words, Tang Xuan's eyes lit up, and he gave a thumbs-up in praise:
"You noticed that, Gao Huohuo."
"Holy crap!" Gao Huohuo was so shocked he almost jumped off his chair.
She clearly remembered not saying her real name, so how did this guy know?
Could it be that they've seen through the system she possesses? Thinking this, her face instantly turned deathly pale.
"Don't be surprised," Tang Xuan said with a smile, as if he had seen through her thoughts.
“When you told me your name, I activated my innate supernatural ability and naturally knew that Bai Qiang was your alias.”
"Then what else can you see in me?" Gao Huohuo tried to remain calm, but her voice still trembled slightly.
“Under normal circumstances,” Tang Xuan frowned slightly, as if recalling something.
“Using this innate supernatural power, you can also see some fragments of this person’s past, but for you, it’s all shrouded in mist.”
Upon hearing this, Gao Huohuo secretly rejoiced: That's good. If he could see everything from the past, that would be terrible.
Gao Huohuo picked up his teacup, took a small sip, looked up at Tang Xuan, and said slowly:
"If that's the case, let's be frank and tell me exactly how you need my help?"
Tang Xuan frowned slightly, a resolute glint in his eyes, and lowered his voice to say:
"I want you to help me get rid of someone, my third brother."
He inadvertently stumbled upon my secret of possessing this talent, and I'm genuinely worried he'll reveal it.
This is murder! But if killing this kid could lure out the old guy behind him, that would be even better.
Thinking this through, she calmly asked, "Then how can you be sure that he hasn't revealed this to anyone else during this time?"
Tang Xuan sighed, his expression slightly helpless:
"My mother used the fox clan's mysterious techniques to temporarily seal his memory of this incident, making him forget it completely."
But this is ultimately just a temporary measure. As time goes on, the seal will weaken, and he will eventually remember it again.
“Okay,” Gao Huohuo nodded slightly, then asked, “What is his cultivation level now?”
"Fifth level of the Nascent Soul stage," Tang Xuan replied briefly.
"Holy crap!" Gao Huohuo almost spat out the tea in his mouth, staring wide-eyed at Tang Xuan.
She's only at the fifth level of the Golden Core stage, yet she's going to assassinate a fifth-level Nascent Soul expert. Isn't that a bit too arrogant?
"You only contacted me?"
Gao Huohuo composed himself and asked again.
"Hmm," Tang Xuan nodded slightly, his tone revealing a mixture of helplessness and trust.
"After all, he is my third brother. It is really inconvenient to let others know about such a private and thorny matter."
Upon hearing this, Gao Huohuo's lips twitched slightly: So they sought out a mere Golden Core cultivator like her to challenge a Nascent Soul expert?
This guy really thinks highly of her!
