Zero Soul Master

Chapter 371 So Everything Was Planned

In a word, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Xiao Bailian fixed his gaze on Howard tightly, not letting go of any expression changes on his face.

After a while of silence, Howard finally had a somewhat surprised wry smile on his face.

"When did you find out?"

These few short words instantly confirmed all the doubts in Xiao Bailian's heart!
"Really you old bastard?!"

Xiao Bailian jumped out all of a sudden, and at the same time, there was a murderous aura that was definitely not friendly.

"Don't rush to get angry, you haven't answered the old man's question yet, when did you find out?"

Howard didn't feel any embarrassment at being exposed, but asked calmly, with a hint of curiosity on his face.

"Discovery? What discovery? I just asked casually, but I didn't expect to be guessed right!"

"..."

In fact, Xiao Bailian was just a little skeptical at first, maybe it was his intuition, he always felt that Howard's appearance was not a coincidence.Judging from the timing of his appearance, it happened to be the critical moment for Xiao Bailian to refine medicine.Then Dan Jie Tianlei appeared, and Howard also indirectly played a role in promoting and assisting.

But what made Xiao Bailian feel wrong the most was how Howard knew where Xiao Xue and Jue Xi were hiding?Didn't he even feel surprised or curious when he saw Juexi's injuries?
Is it because of the disparity in status that he doesn't care about the lives of other people at all, or did he know everything early on?
Of course, these doubts are at most just the one aspect that caught Xiao Bailian's attention, he didn't have much evidence or even his own doubts about Howard were intuitions that occasionally flashed in his mind.

Unexpectedly, being deceived by Xiao Bailian so simply, he admitted it directly.

Even Howard himself was dumbfounded, and then burst out laughing.

"Interesting, your kid is really interesting, even more interesting than that person introduced at the beginning!"

Looking at this old boy who was not angry, but laughed, Xiao Bailian's forehead was covered with black lines.

"Okay, judging by your expression, I guess if you don't explain it clearly to you, you're going to do something? Really, young people nowadays don't have any patience at all."

"Long Shentian was deliberately lured by this old man!"

what? !

Xiao Bailian had speculated about various possibilities, but he never thought about this possibility at all!
"What? What did you just say? You lured Long Shentian here?"

That Long Shentian?Howard actually attracted it on purpose?
"Yes, otherwise, do you think that with Long Shentian's pride, he would come to such a remote place in his eyes? Maybe you don't know much about the children of those family backgrounds, but the kind of pride deep in their souls And the sense of superiority is beyond your imagination."

Xiao Bailian sneered in his heart when he heard this, maybe Howard was right, most people can't imagine how that kind of person thinks.But he is different, if he is just the second young master of the Xiao family, a child of a small family that has declined, it is really incomprehensible.But he is different, on earth, he is not without contact with the children of the rich and powerful.Rich second generation, official second generation, even princelings!
He still clearly remembered that the girl he had been secretly in love with for many years was the one who got into a luxury car owned by a man who could be called a princeling after forgetting her contemptuously for the last time.

I don’t know if it’s ironic, but as an orphan, the school he went to, the games he played, and around him were all kinds of rich and powerful children, and he knew the character of those people better than anyone else. !

However, he wouldn't talk bluntly, but waited for Howard's next words.

"That brat from the Long family, although his talent is mediocre, but his brains are not bad, it would be a waste of my thoughts to get him hooked. Oh, by the way, you don't know who her master is, girl Xue who left before, right? ?”

Seeing Xiao Bailian nod his head, Howard suddenly smiled like a naughty boy who succeeded in pranking, "The master of that girl happened to have something to ask the old man, so the old man had an idea and used that girl as bait. Ticked it up."

"..."

Xiao Bailian really wanted to see, if Xiao Xue was here at this moment, seeing Howard's current expression and hearing what he said, how he would feel, it would definitely be very exciting.

"I don't understand, how can you be sure that they will meet me? And there will be conflicts? Is it your design that I developed to that point with that idiot like a dragon?"

Xiao Bailian's actions are all at will, there is no law to check at all, how did Howard predict what will happen?

Suddenly, Xiao Bailian thought of something. The reason why he met Jue Xing and others at that time was because he had a conflict with another group of people!There was even a murder!
"Think about it? You kid is too careless. You are so careless with a beautiful girl by your side. Like you, it's too easy to cause a little conflict. It's just your temper, you can predict the result just by thinking about it arrive."

To be counted from the beginning to the end?Including his every move and thought?

This kind of feeling of being completely seen through by others is not good, Xiao Bailian suddenly had a killing intent in his heart.

But before he got angry, Howard seemed to have guessed his thoughts, and said first, "Don't rush to get angry, these things are not done by the old man, if you want to blame, go to that person, it has nothing to do with the old man!"

Not Howard?Who is that person in his mouth?Could it be the person who recommended him to become Howard's disciple?
"Who is he?!"

Who is it?A huge question mark appeared in Xiao Bailian's heart, the other party seemed to know him very well, it could even be said to be extremely familiar!Even his thoughts and actions can be guessed in advance, which shows that he has a deep understanding of him.

"I can't say this, the old man has promised. Of course, you will finally know one day in the future, not now."

Xiao Bailian clenched his fists, the feeling of being calculated in the dark was horrible, he was considering whether to beat up the wretched smiling old boy in front of him, and then tortured him to extract a confession.

"I don't understand, what good is it for you to have me conflict with that dragon or something? Besides, it seems that that guy came from an extraordinary background, right? Now that he is so dead, if his family and master pursue him, aren't you afraid of him? revenge?"

Even though Howard is a master-level soul alchemist with a special status, he is not strong after all. If he really wants to piss off some people, it will only take a matter of seconds to kill him.

"Are you referring to the Long family and Tianba? I don't care about the old man! The Long family may not be provoked in the eyes of others, but even if they are given ten guts, they will know that the old man is involved in this matter." They don't dare to do anything with the old man. As for Tianba, he is really troublesome. But don't worry, even if he wants to touch the old man, he needs to carefully consider whether it is worth it."

It can be seen that Howard doesn't take the Long family seriously at all, but he is still quite scrupulous about the strongest king, the Tianba suzerain.However, it can be seen from his last sentence that he has scruples but is not afraid.

This makes Xiao Bailian very puzzled, Howard's strength is not even in the realm of the field, how can he have such confidence to say these words?
"Okay, that's all the gossip. What happened this time is just that the old man didn't believe what that person said, and wanted to see your kid's ability. But I didn't expect that you gave the old man a big surprise! "

Howard laughed again, looking in a pretty good mood.

"Just like that?" Xiao Bailian's eyes widened.

"That's all." Howard nodded.

"Fuck you motherfucker!"

Xiao Bailian went berserk!Suddenly, a punch hit Howard's beautiful old face full of mature men, and Howard was sent flying with a punch and fell to the ground.

Fortunately, Xiao Bailian was quite restrained, and he just punched with ordinary strength, but even so, with his current physique comparable to that of a top-level monster, this punch still made Howard's cheek swell a lot, and he even saw half of it. A broken tooth fell to the ground.

"You scolded the next door! Just because of this idiot reason, you designed all this? Do you know how many people died because of this? Do you know that because of this reason, innocent people were involved?"

Xiao Bailian can be sure that Xiao Xue and Jue Xing are absolutely ignorant.But they were almost killed by Long Shentian whose nature was exposed!
Howard got up from the ground, he didn't get angry because of Xiao Bailian's action, he just patted the dust on his body, and then spoke in a calm tone.

"The group of people who died were the dead who had been affected by puppetry. They were already dead from the very beginning, but they were still being manipulated. Because of your killing, the fact that puppetry has reappeared in the world has been passed down. If you go out, I believe someone will track it down soon. By the way, the idiot you saved after spending so much time before should have already passed on this matter, and I believe there will be a response soon."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Xiao Bailian to refute, Howard spoke again, "You want to say, that kid from the Long family almost killed you all, right? The old man can only say that even that kind of person can't win, and he has no qualifications at all." Be the successor of this old man! Of course, your performance made this old man very satisfied. Although I don’t know the specific process, that kid from the Long family has a protective treasure handed to him by Tianba, the protector of weaknesses. How many people were able to come out alive, and let that kid escape in such a mess, it really exceeded my expectation, not bad! Not bad! Of course, your refining medicine in the end made this old man firm in his idea of ​​accepting you as a disciple! Although I don’t know who the person who taught you how to refine medicine was, this old man wants to say that that person is not qualified to be your teacher! From now on, this old man will teach you what is the real medicine refining technique!”

After finishing speaking, Howard raised his chin slightly, with a complacent expression of waiting for Xiao Bailian to come to apprentice him.But what was waiting for him was...

"What did you just say? Long that idiot ran away in embarrassment? Escape? You mean escape? Isn't he dead?"

Xiao Bailian, who looked surprised, directly grabbed Howard's collar, his eyes widened, and his face was full of disbelief.

Long Shentian, is he not dead?
