Chapter 1738 Things are going big
The night gradually dissipated, and the pre-dawn light came quietly. Soon, the sun will rise and illuminate this land. However, the land at this moment is shrouded in tension and anxiety.
Most of the big guys from the major forces have gathered the required divine coins and are waiting to take people to Xiaoyao Tower to exchange them after dawn.
However, at this critical moment, a shocking news came: the lot was stolen!
This news was like a bombshell, shocking everyone in Liberty City. The big bosses all frowned, feeling that this matter was not trivial. Once all the auction items disappeared, wouldn't their work have been in vain?
The key is the consignors of the auction items. They have lost their items, have not received any money, and are as anxious as ants on a hot pot.
And this theft incident is likely to cause the entire Xiaoyao Building to be discredited or even go bankrupt. Then there will be no place to compensate them.
But this is not what the big buyers care about. They just want to know where the treasures they took so much effort to photograph have gone.
At this moment, all the forces in the God Realm were like sensitive hounds, and they all moved after hearing the news, and joined hands to track down the traces of the stolen auction items. You must know that these auction items are extremely valuable, and no matter who finds them first, they will get the hard-to-find items. The benefits of imagination.
The Liberty City is tightly blocked by the mercenary union, like an isolated island, only allowing entry, but not allowing anyone to leave. In this bustling city, an unprecedented search operation is taking place, and every household is being rummaged through in order to find the lost and precious auction.
At the same time, after Mr. Xiaoyao also learned the news that the lot was stolen, his expression suddenly changed and he hurried back to Xiaoyao Building from outside. Before that, he received a mysterious clue and learned that a treasure from the time of the ancient gods had appeared in the world and was extremely valuable. Therefore, he couldn't help being moved and chose to leave Liberty City.
He originally thought that he had taken complete protective measures. In addition, Xiaoyao Building was only one step away from the Mercenary Union. If an accident occurred, the Mercenary Union would immediately lend a helping hand. He was confident and thought the chance of being stolen was slim. However, who would have expected that in just one night, the situation would take a turn for the worse, and all the auction items would be stolen, with not even a single piece left.
When Mr. Xiaoyao returned to Xiaoyao Tower, his eyes widened and he looked at the facts in front of him in disbelief. He clenched his fists tightly, his heart filled with anger and anxiety. He couldn't figure out who could steal all the lots in such a short period of time without anyone noticing.
In the Xiaoyao Building, Mr. Xiaoyao stood in the center of the hall with a stern face, his eyes like a torch, pointed directly at people's hearts.
"Who came last night?" He put down the tea cup heavily, his voice like a cold sword, penetrating everyone's heart.
In the crowd, Ma Chao replied without hesitation: "You and Miss Xia Meng."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the hall instantly became weird. Mr. Xiaoyao stared at Ma Chao with wide eyes and looked at Ma Chao in disbelief. He had been fighting for the ancient treasure last night, how could he appear in Xiaoyao Tower?
"Who? Me?" Mr. Xiaoyao confirmed again. He really couldn't believe that he was actually here.
Ma Chao nodded and replied: "Well, Miss Xia Meng has also proved your identity." Hearing this, Young Master Xiaoyao's eyes became more confused. Xia Meng has followed him for many years and is loyal. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to hand this place over to Xia Meng with confidence, but what's going on?
“Where is Xia Mengren?” Young Master Xiaoyao immediately turned to his subordinates and glared angrily. He needs an explanation, an explanation that can convince him.
The subordinate replied fearfully: "Miss Xia Meng and Manager Bai are gone, and we are still looking for them."
Hearing this, Mr. Xiaoyao's face became more and more gloomy, and he slapped his subordinate on the face, He angrily shouted: "Trash, you can't even look down on a person!"
It's already so obvious, it would be strange if Young Master Xiaoyao still doesn't know what the problem is.
"Xia Meng, Bai Guanshi" At this time, Young Master Xiaoyao was enveloped in a strong anger. The betrayal of his own people made him extremely resentful. His fists were clenched tightly and his eyes were flashing. A hint of cold murderous intent.
The subordinates were trembling beside him. Looking at Mr. Xiaoyao's gloomy face, he couldn't help but feel a tremor in his heart. He knew that the young master was in an extremely bad mood at the moment, and what he had to endure might be unimaginable anger.
At this time, a noisy sound came from outside the door, breaking the dullness in the room. The quarreling and yelling intertwined together, like a farce.
The subordinate couldn't help praying secretly, hoping that this quarrel would not involve him. But he knew that the current Mr. Xiaoyao was almost like a powder keg, ready to explode at a moment's notice.
Soon, the quarrel got closer and closer, until it finally stopped at the entrance of the hall, and then three drunken figures broke in. They walked into the hall without any scruples, and commanded Mr. Xiaoyao, asking for 10 million divine coins.
These three chubby figures are the three Cui brothers who were drunk by Liu Jun.
The three brothers of the Cui family were so indifferent that Young Master Xiaoyao couldn't help but feel a burst of anger. He looked at the three people with a sneer, but in his heart he was reflecting on why he made such a stupid mistake. He originally wanted to use the power of these three people to protect the treasure house, but he did not expect that when the treasure house was not guarded, they immediately came to him to ask for money.
However, being angry, Mr. Xiaoyao did not show any emotion at this moment. He just sat quietly on the chair and looked at the three brothers with cold eyes, wanting to see what tricks the three brothers were going to play.
"Why are you always looking at me? Yesterday you said that we would give you 10 million divine coins first. Today you will give us 20 million divine coins in total including 10 million commissions. Now I You want my 10 million divine coins?" Cui Dangpang shouted in a rough voice. Although he was not fully awake from the wine, his mind was still clear and he was not blindly messing around. He stared blankly at Mr. Xiaoyao, clenching his fists tightly, obviously trying his best to restrain his anger. He had promised to give them money today, but he actually went back on his promise. He couldn't bear it.
"Are you stupid? Why should I ask you to give me 10 million divine coins?" Mr. Xiaoyao looked helpless and looked at the three Cui brothers with a headache. As he spoke, he rubbed his temples with his hands, his tone showing obvious impatience.
"I didn't know that you brought out a table of good wine and food yesterday. If I don't give you money first, you won't let us eat." Cui Dafang responded in a rough voice. , while touching his chin with his hand, his eyes showed deep doubts.
He really couldn't figure out why Mr. Xiaoyao, who had warmly treated them to food and drinks last night, suddenly became so strange. He had to wonder whether the person in front of him was really Mr. Xiaoyao. But he also knew that now was not the time to dwell on this issue. He only knew that he gave his money to Young Master Xiaoyao, and now he should find Young Master Xiaoyao to get the money back. So, he stared at Mr. Xiaoyao with his eyes widened, waiting for his answer.
The scene fell into a deadlock for a while. The three brothers of the Cui family were full of anger, but Young Master Xiaoyao looked helpless after knowing the whole story, and had to patiently explain what happened yesterday.
However, Big Fatty Cui and others were unwilling to listen to his explanation and insisted that seeing is believing. They believed that Mr. Xiaoyao was the one yesterday, and stubbornly believed that Mr. Xiaoyao just wanted to cheat them of their 10 million divine coins. He must return the divine coin.
Knowing that there was no point in continuing to entangle with these three bastards, Mr. Xiaoyao had no choice but to give 10 million divine coins to the three brothers of the Cui family.
"That's it, can you be a more kind person?" Cui Dangpang put away the 10 million divine coins, turned around and left, and complained before leaving.
I'm so cute! Mr. Xiaoyao was so angry that he was shaking all over and almost spit out a mouthful of blood.
Master Xiaoyao's face was gloomy, like an enraged lion. His eyes swept around, making everyone feel a chill.
"Get out of here, all of you!" He roared with a ferocious face, "Go and find out who dares to impersonate me?" An angry flame burned in Mr. Xiaoyao's eyes, as if to destroy him. All obstacles are burned to ashes.
The subordinates were so frightened that they crawled out of the hall and did not dare to stay for a while. Only Mr. Xiaoyao and the monk Huineng remained silent in the hall.
Monk Huineng looked guilty, clasped his hands and said: "Amitabha, this poor monk failed to guard the treasure house, I am really ashamed."
Hearing this, Young Master Xiaoyao shook his head slightly. He knew very well that Master Huineng could not be blamed for this theft. After all, the thief must have used special means to impersonate him, and he was obviously targeting him. He knew that what happened this time was not that the master didn't work hard, but that the enemy was too cunning.
Master Xiaoyao stood up slowly and faced Master Huineng. His tone was full of helplessness: "Oh, Master Huineng, I can't blame you. I think the thief must have mastered something we don't know." The method, and it was my men who rebelled, otherwise the thief would not have stolen the things in the treasure house so easily."
Although Mr. Xiaoyao was angry, he understood that this time it was his own fault, how could he dare Angry at Master Huineng.
Furthermore, Master Huineng enjoys a very high reputation in the world. He believes that Master Huineng has done his best.
After Master Huineng was sent out of Xiaoyao Tower, Mr. Xiaoyao came to the treasure house. Looking at the empty treasure house, he wished he could immediately catch the thief and twitch his skin. Damn it, he didn’t even give him the box. Stay, how poor do you have to be to be so thorough, why don't you also take away the land.
"Master, we have found out that Liu Jun, the acting head of the Yuan family, seemed not to be in the Yuan Mansion last night." A figure suddenly appeared next to Young Master Xiaoyao.
Mr. Xiaoyao seemed to have become accustomed to the elusiveness of this figure. There was no expression of surprise on his face, but a fierce expression appeared on his face when he heard what the figure said.
"Son of a bitch! I kindly gave him the Apocalypse Mask, but he turned around and moved me all over!" Mr. Xiaoyao cursed angrily, and turned to look at the shadow again, "You too, Didn’t I ask you to stare at Xia Meng? Why did you stare? She, a person who has just entered the main god level, actually trapped you, a peak god level expert, for a whole night."
The black shadow stood quietly. On the side, silent. He was tall, chiseled, and dressed in black, like a ghost in the night. Even though he was scolded, he remained motionless, just looking at the ground indifferently without raising his head.
In fact, Mr. Xiaoyao himself is not a good person, and there is countless blood on his hands. For a treasure, he resorted to ruthless methods, which often resulted in the death of many families. However, this time, when the same experience happened to him, he couldn't accept it.
After Mr. Xiaoyao finished scolding, Heiying finally spoke: "Master, the sellers of the consigned auction items and the buyers have surrounded the entire Xiaoyao Building and asked you to give an explanation."
一Hearing this, Mr. Xiaoyao suddenly felt his head pounding. Those big guys who took photos of their favorite items were unhappy about losing their items, but at least they didn’t lose anything. But these sellers actually lost the lot, and Xiaoyao Building must be responsible for this.
Mr. Xiaoyao gritted his teeth. He knew that this matter was going to be a big deal. If it couldn't be resolved in a short time, needless to say, those sellers would kill him alive.
The black shadow still stood silently aside, like a huge black tower, giving people an unshakable feeling. There was a hint of worry in his eyes. Obviously, he was also worried about Young Master Xiaoyao's situation.
Mr. Xiaoyao took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart. He knew that now was not the time to get angry. He glared at the shadow, then turned and walked towards the stairs, leaving the shadow standing alone, his lonely figure in the silent treasure house.
The black shadow looked at the leaving figure of Young Master Xiaoyao, with a trace of hatred in his eyes. Although he called Young Master Xiaoyao his master, it was also because of the contract. He was originally a ferocious beast with the blood of a divine beast, and Young Master Xiaoyao wanted to get He killed his parents and forced him into a contract.
If there were no contract constraints, he would have torn Young Master Xiaoyao into pieces long ago.
At this time, outside Xiaoyao Building, the sellers and buyers also wanted to tear Mr. Xiaoyao into pieces, and their anger could no longer be contained.
