It was not until Hisoka's figure disappeared into the forest that the dark shadow on the city wall slowly raised his head and looked at the moon.

"It's okay, we'll see you at the top."

……

Hisoka walked slowly in the forest, feeling the surrounding scenery passing by in waves.

Everything became strange.

A faint sadness lingered in his heart, and he couldn't help but sigh.

This time, he never looked back and left.

He didn't know whether Ram would be sad and cry after he left, but Hisoka couldn't go back.

"Where should I go?" Hisoka muttered to himself. He had no direction.

Over the past year, he has experienced a lot in the demon clan and his strength has grown rapidly, especially after being sent to the Soul Tower by the Demon King, his strength has made a qualitative leap.

"I've been away for too long. I don't know how my master is doing. I should go back to Yaowang Valley to see him." Xi Suo thought to himself and then quickened his pace.

Soon, Xi Suo arrived at Yaowang Valley, his home, and naturally no one stopped him.

Xi Suo ran all the way and soon arrived at Yao Lao's garden. During the year when he was away, Yao Lao expanded the garden a lot and the herbs planted there were even stranger.

Xi Suo slowed down his pace and walked carefully, for fear of stepping on the herbs and causing them to wither, which would result in him being severely scolded by the old medicine man.

Medicinal herbs are not rare species. In Xisuo's eyes, they are just ordinary plants, but Yao Lao regards them as particularly important.

"Huh?" Just as Xi Suo was about to enter the courtyard where Yao Lao lived, he suddenly stopped, "This plant seems to be..."

Hisoka carefully observed the herbs and found a red flower. Hisoka felt it was very familiar, but he just couldn't remember what it was.

"You went out to fool around for a year and now you want to torture my herbs when you come back, right?"

At this moment, a voice familiar to Xi Suo sounded, and then Yao Lao walked out of the house wearing a blue and white robe.

Those were the clothes Yao Lao was wearing when they first met. Hisoka was stunned for a moment, as if the memory had come back to him.

"Master." After coming to his senses, Hisoka still called out.

"Humph, you still know you have a master, don't call me master anymore, I don't recognize you as my disciple." Yao Lao snorted coldly.

Chapter 858: Winning by Seeing the Big Picture

"Master, don't be angry, I know I was wrong." Xi Suo quickly bowed his head and admitted his mistake.

Yao Lao glared at Xi Suo, then turned around and continued walking forward, but after a few steps, he stopped, "Don't touch my herbs." Yao Lao said, turning around and staring at Xi Suo.

"Yes." Hisoka nodded.

"Where have you been this year?" Yao Lao asked. Xi Suo didn't say anything, but just stood there quietly.

"Forget it. If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. I won't force you." Yao Lao said, and prepared to turn around and leave.

Xi Suo grabbed Yao Lao and said, "No, Master, it's not that I don't want to say it, but I don't know how to say it. I can't believe it myself." Xi Suo explained.

"Is it even more unbelievable for you that I transformed from a soul into a physical body?" Yao Lao suddenly asked.

Hisoka was stunned, then shook his head, "That's not the case." Hisoka's expression was very sincere.

"In that case, what can't be said?" Yao Lao's tone was somewhat speechless.

Xi Suo didn't say anything, but just looked at Yao Lao quietly and thought for a while.

"That's right." Xi Suo nodded, then pulled Yao Lao back to the house and sat down.

Xi Suo told Yao Lao about what happened from the time he left Yaowang Valley to the time he was in the demon tribe some time ago, especially emphasizing his deeds in the demon tribe and his new friend Ram.

"That should be it. I can't remember clearly." Hisoka pinched his chin and thought. Apart from what happened when he was with Ram, other things were not too important to him. It was good enough if he could remember a general idea.

"Recovered treasures, collapsed mountains, defeated guards, and participated in the Monster Conference to improve relations between the two monster tribes?" The tone of Yao Lao's words became stranger and stranger, and Xi Suo felt uneasy.

"I've said that I don't even dare to believe it myself, let alone you, Master." Hisoka lowered his head.

Yao Lao reached out and tapped Xi Suo's head gently, saying, "After being away for a year, you have learned to guess people's thoughts, right?"

Xi Suo raised his head and looked at Yao Lao with joy.

"Of course I believe what you said, but I feel relieved that so many things happened to you."

"You can only learn fighting skills and alchemy from me. In these two aspects, I, Yao Lao, will never lose to anyone!" Yao Lao paused for a moment, and then said: "It's just that some things require you to experience them yourself to know the taste of them. It's better that you can handle it well, and you don't need my help."

"Master treats Xi Suo very well, Xi Suo knows it." Xi Suo said. Although this matter is hard to say, he knows that Master will not harm him, and has no reason to harm him, so he firmly believes that Yao Lao treats him well because of their long friendship, and not like others who just want to use him.

"Okay, now that you are back, go back and practice first." Yao Lao said.

"Well, goodbye, Master." Xi Suo said goodbye to Yao Lao.

"Wait, you haven't been back for such a long time, do you know if there are any activities recently?" said Yao Lao.

Xi Suo thought for a while and shook his head. After he came back, he ran all the way to Yaowang Valley and didn't pay attention to what people nearby were saying. Naturally, he knew nothing.

"You!" Yao Lao sighed, "Only by looking at the overall situation can you win. I told you to pay more attention to the situation around you."

"Got it." Hisoka lowered his head.

Yao Lao looked at Xi Suo, shook his head, and turned away.

Chapter 859: When did I open a stall in Yaowang Valley?

Yao Lao just took a step forward, but suddenly stopped, turned around and said to Xi Suo: "Go and see what the event is, and then decide whether to participate."

Xi Suo thought about it, then nodded, "Yeah." Then he turned and left.

After leaving Yao Lao's garden, Xi Suo walked towards the bustling market in Yaowang Valley. He wanted to know what kind of activity his master had asked him to see.

Hisoka quickly found a stall with all kinds of medicinal herbs on it, some for treating internal injuries, some for treating external injuries, some for replenishing mental strength, some for restoring spiritual power... everything you could think of, but after looking for a long time, Hisoka didn't know which one to choose.

"Sir, what can I do for you?" At this time, a waiter came over and asked Xi Suo with a smile.

Xi Suo glanced at the waiter, then said, "I want to buy some herbs, but I don't know what kind, you know."

"Oh, I see." The waiter nodded. "Then let me introduce it to you. Please come this way." The waiter led Xi Suo to the stall on the other side. This stall sold all common medicinal herbs. The price of medicinal herbs was not expensive, only five silver coins per plant. The herbs were also diverse, some were used for refining pills, and some were used for refining equipment.

These things don't seem to be rare, and even in this small town of Yaowang Valley, they are not considered special goods, because their owners are very low-key and basically will not put the medicinal materials on the street for sale, and there will be no snatching scenes. Therefore, these vendors can run their business so well.

Xi Suo looked around but couldn't find a suitable one. In the end, he decided to buy a cheaper herb. After all, medicinal herbs are not expensive.

"How much is this herb?" Xi Suo took out fifty silver coins and handed them to the waiter.

The waiter looked at the herbs and said, "This is a good medicine! It's called Seven Star Lotus Seeds. After taking it, it can enhance the spiritual power of the monks. It is a good medicine to enhance the spiritual power of the monks! I wonder if you would like to eat it?"

"Is it really so expensive?" Hisoka looked at the herbs with a puzzled expression.

The waiter smiled and said, "Of course it's expensive. This price is announced by the Medicine King Hall. Do you want to buy it or not?"

"The Medicine King Palace announced it?" Xi Suo said, "Do you know the price of talking nonsense?"

The waiter's face turned pale instantly, and he quickly explained: "Misunderstanding, I am a waiter in the Medicine King Hall, and my boss is the disciple of Yao Lao. You can ask around, I really didn't lie to you."

"When did I open a stall in Yaowang Valley? Or when did my master take in a new apprentice? What a liar." Xi Suo thought secretly in his heart.

"What's your name?" Hisoka asked the guy.

"My name is Martin Clay, you can just call me Martin."

"Well, let me ask you, do you know who I am?" asked Xi Suo.

"Well, how would I know?"

"You don't know me, why do you dare to lie to me?" Xi Suo asked coldly.

Martin's lips trembled. He looked at the strange face in front of him and felt a little panicked, but he still gritted his teeth and insisted, "I don't know you, and you don't need to know who I am! I'm only responsible for selling medicinal herbs."

"Hehe, I am from the Medicine King Palace."

After saying this, Xi Suo reached out and grabbed Martin's collar, lifting him up.

Chapter 860 Tell me who your real boss is

"You...what are you doing..." Martin was terrified. He didn't know the origin of this guest, but he knew he couldn't afford to offend him, so he quickly said, "I really didn't lie to you! I really don't know who you are! I really have never seen you!"

“That’s not what I meant.” Hisoka let go of Martin.

"Then what should I say? How should I say it? I really don't know! My boss is the boss of our Medicine King Valley, and I am only responsible for selling medicinal materials." Martin said, "If you don't believe me, you can go to the Medicine King Palace and ask!"

"I am the boss you mentioned, Yao Lao's only disciple. My name is Xi Suo." Xi Suo said with a smile, "I don't care who your boss is. I only know that if you say something wrong, you will have to pay the price."

"What price!" asked Martin.

"It's simple. Tell me who your real boss is, or take me to see him." Hisoka said calmly.

"I won't take you there."

"why not?"

“I don’t know what you’re talking about, my boss is…

"Don't force me to do it." Xi Suo interrupted Martin and said, "Since you don't want to, then die!" After that, Xi Suo slapped Martin's chest with his right palm.

"boom!"

Martin flew backwards and landed a few meters away, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

"You dare... my boss..." Martin struggled to stand up. He pointed at Xi Suo and shouted, "My boss... no... will not let you go."

"Bang!" Xi Suo kicked Martin again, and Martin's body flew out again and fell on the table of a stall. Suddenly, all the medicinal herbs on the table scattered on the ground.

"I'm sorry, I forgot about it just now and all your herbs are ruined!" Xi Suo said apologetically.

"You...you dare to destroy a pharmacy...do you know that doing so is a crime?"

"Oh, I just want to know who your boss is." Xi Suo ignored Martin's words and continued to ask.

There was a flash of fear in Martin's eyes. He glanced at the shops around him and suddenly, his eyes stopped on a shop.

"You're not going to use me and then kill me to silence me, are you?" Martin asked.

"You think too much." Xi Suo shook his head and said, "I want an answer, and you have given me the answer!"

Xi Suo walked into the shop and picked medicinal herbs on the shelf, and Martin followed him in, with tears on his face, looking pitiful.

"Don't be afraid. I won't hurt you unless you do anything out of line." Xi Suo said with a smile, "Go and call your boss out. I want to see him."

"Okay, Mr. Hisoka," Martin said, and walked into a room inside.

After a while, he came out with a box in his hand and said, "Mr. Xi Suo, our boss said he doesn't want to see you. This is what he asked me to pass on to you. Please accept it and leave!"

Hisoka frowned, feeling that he was being looked down upon, but he still looked carefully at the layout of the shop. Hisoka discovered that there were all kinds of hidden weapons hidden in the dark corners of the room, and one could get hurt if he was not careful.

"Forget it, it's better not to cause trouble." Xi Suo took the box from Martin and walked out of the shop.

"Mr. Xi Suo, you really don't have to worry. Our boss has no ill will towards you. He just can't see you." Martin looked at Xi Suo and said.

Chapter 861: Go to the Tavern to Inquire about Activities

"Okay, got it." Xi Suo said with a smile, "I'll go back and rest first."

"Then I'll take you out," said Martin.

Xi Suo nodded, and the two walked out of the pharmacy. Xi Suo said, "I just want to ask one more question. Does your boss know me?"

"Well, I'm not sure about that, but it should be. The boss is always indifferent to people he's not familiar with, but he's a little different to you." Martin said.

"Really? I understand, thank you." Hisoka said, then turned and walked out of Martin's sight.

After Hisoka left, Martin walked into the shop and disappeared.

"You can't even recognize a puppet. You're really too naive." These words were heard from the shop, and then calm returned.

……

"Oh, I almost forgot something. My master asked me to come out and see what activities are going on recently!" Xi said to himself, "Who should I ask? If I have any information, I'll just go find them."

Thinking of this, Xi Suo walked towards the largest tavern in Yaowang Valley.

【Tavern】

"Boss, I want to ask you something. Is there any activity in Medicine King Valley recently?" Xi Suo walked to the door of the tavern and said to an old man sitting at the table.
