Fantasy, starting with a treasure bowl

"Fool!"

With a smirk, Lu Feng secretly transmitted his voice to Di Hu Xing again, "Think about it, this Bai Xiao Ge doesn't do business, nor does it sell treasures, yet it employs so many handymen and servants. Where does it get the capital?"

"Besides, as that young servant just mentioned, every piece of information from the Hundred Knowledge Pavilion isn't free. No matter what information you want to inquire about, you'll ultimately have to spend a lot of silver or spirit stones...!"

"So, this Master of the Hundred Knowledge Pavilion is most likely incredibly wealthy. A mysterious expert who is both rich and influential, why wouldn't he have trouble finding out information?"

At this point, Lu Feng shook his head, as if he had seen through the secrets behind the Hundred Knowledge Pavilion at a glance.

"That...that makes sense!"

Earth Tiger Star also twinkled with starlight, its tiger's mouth slightly open, clearly convinced by Lu Feng's explanation.

After all, with the Hundred Knowledge Pavilion Master's immense wealth and the large number of servants and henchmen under his command, let alone a mere Jinling City and Yingtian Prefecture, even the vast Xuan Song Kingdom would likely be unable to escape the Hundred Knowledge Pavilion's super intelligence network.

"Damn it! You bunch of scoundrels from the Hundred Knowledge Pavilion, do you really think you can fool me?!"

"I'm going to slaughter you all today!"

Just as Lu Feng was about to head to the third floor, a furious commotion suddenly erupted from above.

Boom! BOOM...!

The next moment, a tall, burly figure burst through the wall and landed steadily, revealing a dark face covered in scars. He looked fierce and terrifying!

"Such powerful Yuan energy! And it far exceeds the range of Yuanhai Realm martial artists..."

The unexpected turn of events caused Lu Feng's expression to change slightly. He immediately retreated, his eyes filled with apprehension as he looked at the burly, dark-faced man opposite him. "Just who is this person?!"

Although the opponent has an ordinary appearance and well-developed limbs, and doesn't look like a top expert, these are just superficial stereotypes!

Lu Feng was also very clear in his heart that the dark-faced man in front of him, whose origins were unknown, was probably no weaker than the two envoys of the Wusheng Sect in the past, or even stronger!

"A bunch of lousy, worthless soldiers!"

"If it weren't for my second sister arriving in time, I'm afraid I would already be dead without a burial place...!"

Sikong Zhuixing glanced around at the mess again, his brows furrowed, then he curled his lip in displeasure, seemingly still feeling unsatisfied about the disturbance at Baixiaoge and the injury to his servants.

"Third Master Sikong, please calm your anger! I absolutely did not mean to deceive you...!"

At this moment, an injured steward from the Hundred Knowledge Pavilion scrambled over, his voice filled with fear, "That old intelligence report about the 'Human Infant Profound Spirit Fruit' was not only absolutely true, but it had also been thoroughly verified by our various informants. Even if I had the guts of a bear and the gall of a leopard, I would never dare to deceive you, Third Master Sikong!..."

"Hmph, you dare bring this up with me!"

Faced with the Hundred Knowledge Pavilion steward's pleas for mercy, Sikong Zhuixing snorted coldly, his face ashen, seemingly growing increasingly angry. "The information about the Human Infant Profound Spirit Fruit is indeed true, but the number of demonic beasts guarding it is far too low, isn't it?"

"Three high-level spirit-rank demonic beasts, each one nearly as strong as a human expert at the eighth level of the Profound Realm! And their strength is completely different from the initial intelligence! If I hadn't been lucky enough to run fast enough, I would probably have been devoured by these demonic beasts long ago!"

"Is this how you people from Baixiaoge take money and do your jobs?!"

Sikong Zhuixing roared again, and kicked the counter next to him to the ground. The mortal servants next to him trembled with fear and hid far away, not daring to step forward to stop him!

"Third Master Sikong! This matter was due to our department's negligence in investigation. I will certainly report this to the department head and give you an explanation..."

Faced with Sikong Zhuixing's angry questioning, the steward of Baixiaoge seemed to know he was in the wrong and dared not refute, only speaking weakly.

It's perfectly normal for the other party to feel angry!

About three months ago, their Baixiaoge sold Sikong Zhuixing a piece of information about the "Human Infant Mystic Spirit Fruit". As for the Human Infant Mystic Spirit Fruit, it is a rare and precious medicine with an age of more than 100 years. Ordinary martial artists can hardly come across it!

However, the information that Baixiaoge initially gathered only indicated that there was a single high-level spirit-rank demon beast guarding the Human Infant Profound Spirit Fruit, but in reality, there were three high-level spirit-rank demon beasts guarding the Human Infant Profound Spirit Fruit!

It was precisely because of the misinformation that Sikong Zhuixing found himself in danger, not only failing to obtain the Human Infant Mystic Spirit Fruit, but also nearly losing his life in the end!

"Explanation? What nonsense! Today, I'm going to tear down this worthless Hundred Knowledge Pavilion...!"

"Stanning celebrities is unacceptable!"

Just as the former was about to continue causing a ruckus at Baixiaoge, a woman's voice with a cold tone came from afar, causing Sikong Zhuixing to freeze in place.

"Second Sister?"

"Don't forget whose territory this is. If you continue to cause trouble, and this matter reaches Bai Xiaosheng's ears, it will become an endless mess..."

The woman's voice remained clear and cold, like heavenly music, while Sikong Zhuixing, who had been furious, calmed down a bit and softened his tone, seemingly somewhat afraid of her.

"Alright, Big Brother's not here right now, and there are a lot of things to do at the arena. Once you've had your fun out there, hurry back and don't cause any more trouble..."

The aloof woman continued speaking slowly and deliberately, her tone revealing an air of authority befitting a superior.

"Yes, Second Sister!"

Hearing this, Sikong Zhuixing dared not continue his antics. He turned and hurriedly left, but before leaving, he uttered another harsh threat, "Hmph! For my second sister's sake, I'll spare your lives today, you bunch of stinking soldiers!"

"However, this isn't over yet...!"

Sikong Zhuixing glanced at the group of injured Baixiaoge stewards around him and said viciously, "Go back and tell your master, Baixiaosheng, that my money isn't so easily swindled. Those who have taken my money will make him cough it all up sooner or later...!"

After saying that, Sikong Zhuixing turned around and left without looking back, his aura was so domineering, he obviously did not take the famous Baixiaoge in Jinling City seriously!

"Hey buddy, who exactly is that burly, dark-faced guy? He dares to cause trouble at the Hundred Knowledge Pavilion in broad daylight! This guy's got some nerve!"

Seeing that Sikong Zhuixing not only caused a ruckus at Baixiaoge, but also that no one dared to stop him, Lu Feng, who was watching the show from the side, couldn't help but nudge one of the Baixiaoge stewards and then whispered probing questions.
