After experiencing countless twists and turns, Xu Liao's style of doing things had gradually become more dependable. If he had allowed Bai Qiushui to go to Qingxu Grotto-Heaven alone, the Bai family might have sent people to intercept him. However, with Yu Qingyuan's protection, unless the patriarch of the Bai family made a move, anyone else from the Bai family would just be sending themselves to their deaths!
Yu Qingyuan was a direct disciple of the Jade Tripod Sect. His father, Daoist Lingyu, was the fourth disciple of the Jade Tripod Sect's patriarch. With the death of two or three disciples of the Jade Tripod Sect, Daoist Lingyu's seniority was second only to Perfected Chijing.
Even Yu Qingyuan himself, who had not only been imparted the Weeping Cloud Bird transformation by Xu Liao, but was also proficient in the Jade Tripod Sect's numinous treasure transformation, could only far surpass the 18 immortal sects and the Myriad Demon Guild.
Furthermore, it was unlikely that the Bai family would send a Demon General Elder to capture Bai Qiushui, who was only a Demon Warrior.
After settling Bai Qiushui's matter, Xu Liao began to read another dossier. Although he had personally killed the Sun brothers, he was still interested in investigating the Sun family's massacre.
It was not that he wanted to avenge the Sun brothers, but he could not resist the urge to kill this bastard who easily massacred an entire family.
After a few days of investigation, Xu Liao had made use of his position to more or less understand the Sun family's case.
What surprised Xu Liao was that he could not find out the origins of the demon who had massacred the Sun family.
It was very difficult for demons to awaken. Almost every demon had the identity of an ordinary person before their awakening. The Myriad Demon Guild had strict control over newborn demons, so it was almost impossible for such a situation to occur.
However, no one could find out the identity of this monster. It just appeared out of nowhere. There was no record of it entering the country, nor was there any trace of it living in China. It made use of the most precise time difference and killed the entire Sun family for no reason. Then, it escaped from China and obediently settled in a small city in Europe, living in seclusion.
This matter was completely illogical and inexplicable. Although Xu Liao was not good at conspiracies, he could smell the scent of one.
He thought to himself, "If there's no mastermind behind this, this demon wouldn't be able to carry out this massacre so mysteriously. If there's a mastermind behind this, then it's definitely related to the higher-ups of the Thousand Demon Guild. If he didn't have any insider information from the Thousand Demon Guild, how would he know that there wasn't any powerful demon in the Thousand Demon Guild during that period of time? But why did the mastermind behind the scenes order him to kill the entire Sun family? We can't treat killing as a game, right? "
What puzzled Xu Liao the most was that if the murderer was a homicidal maniac, he would have committed more than one crime. However, the murderer had gone to Europe and resumed his peaceful life, never committing any illegal crimes again. In fact, according to the records of the Thousand Demons Guild, he had lived in Europe for many years and had never broken any of the rules. He was extremely law-abiding.
If it wasn't for the many pieces of evidence left in the Thousand Demon Guild's dossier that pointed out that the murderer was this person, Xu Liao would have thought that the Thousand Demon Guild had made a mistake.
Xu Liao read the dossier for a while and suddenly, a call came in. When he picked it up, he saw Bai Qiulian and Qu Lei appearing together on the screen.
Xu Liao couldn't help but ask, "Why are the two of you together?"
Bai Qiulian smiled and said, "Not only the two of us, Zhao Yanqin and Lin Ning are here too. We're having afternoon tea now, do you want to come over and pay the bill later?"
Xu Liao hesitated for a while and said, "Then I'll be there in half an hour. Wait for me for a while, I still have some things to settle."
After Bai Qiulian asked the Old Ancestor to help him shrink the body of the Yellow Scarf Strongman, he also reported to the school and quickly mingled with Qu Lei, Zhao Yanqin and the others. Lin Ning was not a student of the High School Affiliated to Bei Du Normal University, but as an outsider, he had joined the Animation Club of the High School Affiliated to Bei Du Normal University.
Lin Ning still didn't know that his terminal illness had been cured, but after witnessing the various things in the Demon World, he slowly held onto some hope, so he worked very hard to integrate into this circle.
The four girls had formed a small society, and their relationship was actually quite harmonious!
Every day after school, Xu Liao had to go to the Police Department to work at the Dragon-pressing Mountain to deal with official business. However, the girls only ate, drank, and played around every day.
Xu Liao dealt with the files in his hands and called Yan Yanran in. Yan Yanran was an elder of the Police Department, and there were many things that she had to deal with.
Xu Liao asked casually: "I heard that those Yellow Scarf Strongman have already arrived at Bei Du City, you should be in charge of receiving them!"
Yan Yanran nodded and said: "These Yellow Scarf Strongman are easy to settle down. They can usually turn into sculptures and don't move at all. I've already placed them in a warehouse."
Speaking of these Yellow Scarf Strongman, Yan Yanran could not help but smile. She had never seen such a dull creature before. Although there were more than two hundred Yellow Scarf Strongman, there was only one Awakened one, so it was very inconvenient to communicate with them. It could be said that there was no communication at all.
Xu Liao knocked on the table and said indifferently, "Call these guys over to see me tomorrow. It's time to assign them jobs."
Yan Yanran was naturally happy to obey. The Yellow Scarf Strongman were not easy to deal with, and their tempers were very hard. She also wanted to throw these hot potatoes to others as soon as possible.
She was naturally very happy that Xu Liao was willing to take the initiative to take over. The two of them discussed the work for a few minutes, and then Xu Liao let Yan Yanran do his work. He also packed up a bit, shook open the Two Realms Great Heavenly Devil Banner, and directly escaped from the Police Department to the Moon Coffee Shop on Luoyang Street.
Bai Qiulian liked the Moon Coffee very much, and would choose this place for afternoon tea almost every time. Xu Liao also had a good impression of the Moon Coffee, and was familiar with it after coming here often. On the contrary, it gave him a special feeling.
When Xu Liao stepped into the Moonlight Coffee Shop that Bai Qiulian and the others had booked, Bai Qiulian was demonstrating how to cook fruit tea to her three companions. She used the fresh fruit that Xu Liao had brought out from the Qing Ning Garden, and the spring water was the spirit spring water from the Bai family's Western Profound Paradise. A pot of fruit tea was filled with a fragrance, and one could tell that it would be sweet and delicious even before drinking it.
When Qu Lei saw Xu Liao come in, he waved his hand and said in a low voice, "So the fruit that Bai Qiulian gave me that day was actually so precious!"
Xu Liao giggled and said, "No matter how precious the fruit is, it's still for people to eat. It's the same no matter who gives it to me."
He casually picked up a teacup, and Bai Qiulian filled it for him. Then, he said with a smile, "I've already found a place to plant all the fresh fruit seeds in the Heavenly Emperor Garden. I don't know when they'll grow."
Xu Liao was not interested in such trivial matters, so he casually said a few words and drank the fruit tea in his hand. Just as he praised the taste, he heard a completely unfamiliar voice say indifferently: "You are Xu Liao?"
The owner of this voice had a monstrous killing intent. It was obvious that he was not here to make friends, but to challenge!
