Zero Soul Master

Chapter 17 Natsume Castle

Looking at the angry girl who fled in a slight panic, Xiao Bailian's smug smile flashed away.

In the past few days of contact, he has somewhat understood the character of a certain girl.Generally speaking, it is a strange character that is so rigid that it can be described as old and stubborn.

But in it, one can fully appreciate the persistence and firmness of the girl who is more unshakable than ordinary people.

"She is a person who doesn't know how to adapt, is slightly pedantic but has a pure personality."

This is Xiao Bailian's evaluation of a certain girl in the past few days.

Therefore, Xiao Bailian devised a series of plans for this character very shamelessly.From the beginning of designing the talisman to the series of actions just now, even though the girl was angry, she couldn't vent it completely.

He uses reason to move emotion, and uses some seemingly great principles to make the girl dare not turn her face easily.

Regardless of what Xiao Bailian said before, for the sake of the Xiao family, he would lose his conscience and set a command talisman on the girl.I still used all kinds of rogue-like but human reasons just now to alleviate the resentment and anger in the girl's heart.

In short, no matter how aggrieved and angry the girl is, if she cannot point out what is wrong with Xiao Bailian's actions, her character does not allow her to kill people.

"Oh, I'm so tired. I didn't expect it to be so difficult to coax a woman. This is a simple-minded woman. It's so difficult. It's really difficult for those playboys who have too many feet on their feet. I really don't know how they wandered away." Among many women, she is so easy to handle."

Second Young Master Xiao looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh.

"Quack! quack! quack!"

A crow flew overhead, singing happily as it flew.

In the days that followed, it was as if everything had never happened before.In the blink of an eye, another week passed.

It has been a month since I came to this world. During this time, the Xiao family was ordinary, but the outside world was not like that.

At this moment, Xiamu City where the Xiao family is located.

In Natsume City, there are three famous families.These three families are all famous for producing powerful summoners, and they have occupied more than [-]% of the entire city's distribution in terms of finance and other aspects for many years.

Among these three families, one of them was the Xiao family that was once famous in the Imaginary Soul Continent.

The other two are the Arites family and the Faller family.

Although these two families are not as old as the Xiao family, but compared with the declining Xiao family, these two emerging families that have not developed for more than 150 years are more powerful.

Among them, the Farrer family occupies more than [-]% of the casinos and brothels in the city, all of which are supported or even directly controlled by the Farrer family behind the scenes.

However, compared to the other Arites family, the Farrer family is slightly inferior.

The Arites family, among the three major families in Natsume City, has the shortest development time, a new family with less than 100 years.However, such a new family with a total of less than five generations has still become the largest and most terrifying family in the entire Natsume City today, accounting for almost half of the influence of the entire city.

Why can the Arist family reach such a point in less than 100 years?The reason is simple, the predecessor of the Alister family was a super-giant gang of slave traders!

slave!

The lowest status on the Phantom Soul Continent, or the lowest level person who has no status.Most of them were captives in the war, or some survivors who had their homes ransacked and their families wiped out.Of course, more of them are ordinary people who were abducted by slave traders in various places!

Phantom Soul Continent is now in the transition period from a slave society to a feudal society.Of course, this chaotic social period has lasted for thousands of years, and it has to be said that it is a rather weird development model.

On the Phantom Soul Continent, what industry is the most profitable?
gamble?brothel?Or those soul pills that have those magical effects in the rumors, life and death?

wrong!Whether it is a casino or a brothel, or even those Soul Pills that are often worth tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands or even more, the profits generated from them are not even more profitable than slave trade!

Selling slaves is almost a business of getting rich with a lot of money, or even without a lot of money.

Any slave trader is almost filthy rich.Of course, they are not cursed and resented by countless people all the time, and they even wish to eat their flesh and drink their blood!

And the Arites family, relying on this industry, has earned a wealth of wealth in just a few decades, and quickly developed the entire family.

At this time, among the Aritus family, the current Patriarch of the Aritus family was listening to something with a serious face, his expression changing again and again.

"Is the news reliable?"

"Absolutely reliable, Patriarch, this is a good opportunity!"

In the room, there are two people.The first one is an old man in his 60s. His gray hair shows that he is not young anymore.The whole body breath is like an ordinary person, sitting there is not like a devil who controls countless slave traders with one hand, but like a grandfather next door.

Who would have thought that such a seemingly ordinary old man was the behind-the-scenes tycoon who controlled the entire Aritus family.And I am a powerful summoner whose soul power has reached the earth-level stage!

Uhtred Arites, who seldom shows up, is a powerful summoner with earth-grade soul power!

In front of him, a middle-aged man in his thirties was standing aside with a slight fear and a respectful expression.

"It seems that the Duanmu family is finally going to give up the Xiao family. This is also normal. In fact, they should have made such a decision three years ago. Humph! It seems that even the old ghost of the Duanmu family is finally Are you desperate?!"

"This matter..." The middle-aged man was a little embarrassed, and then he said after considering his words, "According to my subordinates, the Duanmu family didn't know about this matter, but the Duanmu family The princess's own private actions."

"What do you know!"

Uhtred sneered, "Do you really think it's just a private act of that ignorant little girl from the Duanmu family? Without the acquiescence of the head of the Duanmu family, no matter how favored she is, the Duanmu family will never allow her to do so." This kind of thing."

"Besides, you said that this time, there is another Duanmu Bote in the Duanmu family? Humph! Although Duanmu Bote is not directly related to the Duanmu family, he is still an elder. Understand?"

The middle-aged man trembled slightly, and asked with a look of surprise, "Could it be that the Duanmu family did this on purpose? Duanmu Yunrou was just being used?"

"It's not a matter of using it, but the little girl was put together by her own relatives. As far as the result is concerned, everyone gets what they want. It's just that among them, is it the old ghost of Duanmu's family or the following people? The younger generation made their own decision, but this old man dare not categorically confirm it."

"Patriarch, what's the difference? Now that things have happened like this, it is obvious that the friendship between the Duanmu family and the Xiao family for many years has come to an end. In the future, it is absolutely impossible for the Duanmu family to stand up for the Xiao family, and it is absolutely impossible for the Xiao family to tolerate it. With the character of the Xiao family, the Duanmu family slapped them hard this time!"

"Of course there is a difference! If the Duanmu family's actions this time were agreed or acquiesced by the Duanmu family, then the Duanmu family and the Xiao family are really severed, and there is absolutely no possibility of continuing the alliance. But if this is just under the Duanmu old ghost, then The actions and meanings of the group of juniors themselves are different."

Utred said here, rubbing his chin and pondering for a long time, and then said again, "Well, you can order this matter, let people pay close attention to the recent reactions of the Xiao family and the Duanmu family, especially the Duanmu family, report any abnormalities immediately! "

"Yes!"

After the middle-aged man left, Uhtred walked around the room a few times, as if there was a very important matter that he couldn't make a decision immediately, so he wandered around the room like this without a clue.

"Should we do something? Although Duanmu's family and Xiao's family can almost be said to have no future, but that old ghost Duanmu..."

Suddenly, there was a sound of playfulness outside.

Uhtred's eyes lit up, as if thinking of something.

"Hmph! No matter whether the Duanmu old ghost is involved in this incident or not, the relationship between the Xiao family and the Duanmu family is definitely broken. Well, for the sake of caution, let the old man visit you first to see what the Xiao family is doing now. What kind of reaction do you plan!"

"Xiao family, you have been too stable these years."

A conspiracy against the Xiao family is slowly taking shape, but neither Xiao Guofeng nor Xiao Bailian has noticed it.

"It finally came out! These days, I almost bored this young master!"

Standing on a certain busy street in Xiamu City, Xiao Bailian stretched deeply.

Today it was rare for him not to practice the painful practice of swinging the sword, but to leave Xiao's house and arrive in Xiamu City.

There is no other reason, Xiao Guofeng has something to go out, and the Xiao family encountered something in a certain market in Natsume City, and someone from the Xiao family who could talk was needed to solve it.

So Xiao Bailian, who had been bored for a long time, did his part and volunteered.

As the saying goes, there are no tigers in the mountains, and monkeys are kings.Now that Xiao Guofeng is not here, Xiao Bailian is the boss of the Xiao family, who dares to stop him?
Then it became like this, Xiao Bailian was dressed in simple casual clothes, and led a certain girl directly out of the gate of Xiao's house.

I don't know if it's because of the scar on his face, or because Xiao Bailian swung his sword desperately during this period of time, his figure has become burly, and his skin has changed from the original whiteness to a slightly bronzed color.Coupled with an ordinary family's attire, no one really noticed along the way that this person is the notorious second young master of the Xiao family in Xiamu City.

But along the way, the return rate is still very high.It's just not because of him, but because of a certain girl who followed closely behind him.
