Someone was plotting against him?
Invisible danger was the greatest danger, and Xia Fei's soul array was very effective. After the haunting incident, no one wanted to stay here any longer. People were coming and going in the large courtyard, and everyone was busy moving things out.
Xia Fei, Xiao Huai, and Jing Xiao stood together and watched the ruffians leave. Xia Fei had a smile on his face, but Xiao Huai and Jing Xiao kept trying to get them to stay. Of course, this was only on the surface. They could not wait for these ruffians to leave.
Xiao Huai looked at Xia Fei gratefully. What a haunted move. Without using a sword or a spear, he had gotten rid of the Aurora Tribe's big problem, and he had even thrown the burden to the enemy!
Xia Fei smiled and gestured to Xiao Huai to keep quiet. Xiao Huai quickly nodded, indicating that he would never betray Xia Fei.
'Actually, it's not like the Aurora Tribe doesn't have any merits. At the very least, they can be trusted. It's just that I can't agree with their way of doing things. It's already a huge favor for me not to scheme against others these days,' Xia Fei said to himself with a shrug.
Radix actually agreed with Xia Fei's vengeful personality, but he did not want to badmouth his old boss, so he pretended not to hear anything.
That was when Xiao Beiwang hurried over, anxiously asking, "They've been living well. Why did they leave? Why didn't you try to get them to stay? "
Xiao Huai replied, "We tried, but the more we tried, the faster they left."
Xiao Beiwang sighed and had nothing to say to that.
Xia Fei did not want to have anything to do with this kind-hearted great-grandfather of his, so he turned around and walked down the street, planning to take advantage of this free time. After all, he was in a new place, and Xia Fei's curiosity was piqued once more.
"Young man, what's your name? Where are you from, and where are you going? " Xiao Beiwang reached out and stopped him. Xia Fei was slightly taken aback. They were very close, and the ripples coming from Xiao Beiwang seemed to be a little chaotic. It seemed like he was injured?
Xia Fei smiled and bowed. "This junior is Xia Fei. I live in this courtyard."
"Oh, are you planning to move away?"
"That's not necessarily the case. I'm living quite well here, so why bother moving around? Besides, these people claim that the villa is haunted, yet I don't think there's anything wrong with it. Perhaps they're just exaggerating," Xia Fei softly said.
Old Man Jing Xiao also said, "Yes, I feel the same as Xia Fei. I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary at all. Could it be that these people …"
Xiao Beiwang was slightly stunned. He understood what Jing Xiao was implying. He suspected that these ruffians had deliberately moved away to spread the news that the Aurora Tribe's side courtyard was haunted. If that happened, the side courtyard would probably be abandoned, and no one would dare to live in it anymore.
"Old Jing, don't talk nonsense. We have no enmity with them. Why would they target us?"
Xia Fei was rather speechless. It seemed that this great-grandfather of his was extraordinarily naive. Things had already reached this point, yet he still could not tell that these people were in cahoots.
Frowning, Xia Fei observed Xiao Beiwang closely and found that there was indeed something different about him. It seemed that someone had injured his soul. Though it was not serious, if it was not treated for a long time, it would probably accumulate old injuries.
After some thought, Xia Fei asked, "Elder, is there something else you wanted to talk to me about?"
Xiao Beiwang awkwardly chuckled. For some reason, he felt that Xia Fei was a little similar to his son, who had been chased out of the house, so he had a good impression of him. Something else? He really did not have anything to do.
"It's nothing. It's just that the young man looks a little similar to an old friend, so I felt nostalgic. Fine, since you've decided to stay in the side courtyard, we'll have a chance to meet in the future. Old Jing, now that there are so many empty rooms, arrange a better place for Xia Fei to stay. Don't let him suffer," Xiao Beiwang softly said.
Jing Xiao also had a good impression of Xia Fei, so he quickly agreed.
At this time, a few more people from the Xiao family came over to check on the situation. They went to the side to talk, but Xia Fei, who was about to leave, did not. He stared at these people, his eyes gradually turning cold.
"What's going on?" Radix curiously asked.
"These people from the Aurora Tribe are all injured, and they're chronic internal injuries," Xia Fei sternly said.
"What? Chronic internal injuries?! What could have caused this? " Radix paled in shock. He was not a cleric, so he could not tell what was going on, but he trusted Xia Fei's judgment.
"I'm not sure, but Xiao Huai, Jing Xiao, and the others are fine. Strange," Xia Fei muttered.
Waving his hand, Xia Fei quietly called Xiao Huai to the side.
"Where do you usually stay?" Xia Fei asked.
Xiao Huai was startled, and his face immediately turned red. He stammered, "I have a girlfriend, but there's no one in her house lately, so …"
Xia Fei chuckled. "It's not like having a girlfriend is something shameful. Why be so shy? When are you going to bring her out for me to meet? Let's have a meal together."
Xiao Huai firmly nodded, feeling a little closer to Xia Fei. The rules of the Aurora Tribe were very strict, and it was forbidden for a youth like Xiao Huai to live with a girlfriend before he was married. However, not only did Xia Fei not reprimand him, he even encouraged him, which greatly encouraged Xiao Huai.
"How long have you been living with your girlfriend?" Xia Fei asked.
* Shing ~ *
Xiao Huai's face immediately turned purple, and he loudly said, "We're not living together! I've always slept on the sofa! "
Xia Fei was speechless. In the end, he was still a good kid, running over to someone else's house just to take care of his girlfriend. Looking at his flustered and exasperated look, he probably had not even held her hand yet.
"It's been five days since the fourth of this month," Xiao Huai softly said. "Please, don't tell my mother."
…
After understanding the situation, Xia Fei was no longer in the mood to stroll around the streets. Instead, he went straight to the main courtyard of the Aurora Tribe.
A clan with a long history and heritage like the Aurora Tribe could not possibly have just one courtyard. This was the residence of the main members of the clan, and it was of utmost importance to the operation of the entire clan.
As he walked along the street, Xia Fei would occasionally get close to the wall and step on the dirt. Occasionally, he would even use a knife to dig up the dirt.
"How is it? Are there any results? "Yuan anxiously asked.
Xia Fei nodded and said, "The other party is a spiritualist. He set up a very sinister shuttle-shaped Soul Soaring Formation outside the courtyard. This formation isn't very powerful, but it's good at concealment. Over time, it will slowly erode a person's soul. That's how the light injuries on Xiao Beiwang and the others came about. It's a good thing we discovered it early. If it had been a few more months and the damage to the soul had seeped into the bones, it would have been troublesome."
Yuan hurriedly said, "Since you already know that someone set up a sneak attack, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and dismantle this stupid formation!"
Xia Fei shook his head. "It's easy to dodge a spear in the open, but it's hard to guard against an arrow in the dark. If we don't get rid of this mischievous spiritualist, he'll come up with more tricks sooner or later. I think it's best not to touch this formation for now, lest we alert the enemy."
"Besides, the other party has already melted the soul tool. It'll be very troublesome to break the formation." Xia Fei pointed at his feet.
Yuan took a closer look and saw that this place had clearly been excavated, but there was no soul tool in it. This meant that this was a dead formation! The other party had no intention of retrieving the soul tool and had instead fused it with the ground.
"A dead formation! What do we do? "Yuan worriedly asked.
Xia Fei nonchalantly said, "It's fine. As long as I have something suitable, I can turn this dead formation into a living one. That fellow who set up the dead formation will definitely come to check again. At that time, we can make a move and capture him."
…
Xia Fei suddenly realized that the situation was very complicated. There was actually a spiritualist secretly making a move against the Aurora Race.
This was also why spiritualists were so terrifying. Many people who offended a spiritualist would end up dying without even knowing how they died. Compared to a warrior's single charge, a spiritualist's methods could be said to be ever-changing and impossible to guard against.
Fortunately, this Soul Formation had only been activated for two days, so the young and old of the Aurora Race had not suffered any damage yet. What Xia Fei needed to do now was to change this Soul Formation from a dead formation to a living one.
'I'm really puzzled. With the personality of the Aurora Race, how did they manage to survive in this dangerous universe?' Xia Fei sighed to himself as he made his way to Treasures Pavilion.
In Xia Fei's view, one had to be unscrupulous in order to survive. Only a ruthless character like Heaven's Wings would be able to live longer. For a group of good people to survive in the Alpha Universe, which was even more ruthless than the Law Realm was practically a miracle.
This was Xia Fei's second time coming to Treasures Pavilion, and he could be said to be very familiar with the place. However, this time, he was brought to the backyard, an extremely quiet place.
Xia Fei sat down in the yard, and Bao Xiuzhu and Ji Liang soon arrived.
Early this morning, everything that had happened in the Aurora Race's courtyard had reached Bao Xiuzhu's ears. Yesterday, Xia Fei had just bought a few basic soul tools, and today, something had happened in the courtyard. Anyone could not help but guess that it was Xia Fei.
Bao Xiuzhu was well aware of the value of a spirit-master. For someone like her who was vying for control of her family, having a spirit-master behind her would be of great help to her.
Bao Xiuzhu was just fretting over how she could establish a relationship with Xia Fei, and now, Xia Fei had come knocking on her door. The lady of a merchant family had never been pretentious and knew how to choose between benefits, so Miss Bao had decided to personally step forward, wanting to probe Xia Fei's situation.
After the introductions were over, Ji Liang said, "Brother Xia Fei, I didn't think we'd meet so soon. Is there anything you need this time?"
Xia Fei handed over the list he had prepared earlier to Ji Liang. Ji Liang took a look and frowned slightly. He then handed the list to Bao Xiuzhu.
Bao Xiuzhu smiled after reading it. "Prepare it according to the list."
"Okay. I'll be right back."
With that, Ji Liang went to prepare the things Xia Fei wanted, giving Xia Fei and Bao Xiuzhu a chance to be alone.
Xia Fei lit a cigarette. Needless to say, this was the young lady of the Bao family who had given him her name card last time. However, Xia Fei had no interest in her, so he was only thinking about how he could turn things around.
It should be noted that this was Xia Fei's first time facing off against a Cleric. If a battle between Warriors could be described as brutal, then when Clerics actually fought, it would not just be a matter of brutality, but also danger at every step!
"I'm Bao Xiuzhu. This is my name card." Bao Xiuzhu was rather generous, returning the name card that Xia Fei had thrown away last time. Even the stain on it was still there.
