Chapter 241: Li Ruoxi’s Bet (2)
“I’m sure you know that we were arranged to search for extraordinary materials yesterday.
Those transcendent materials were used to set up the array foundation of the Great Five Elements Positive and Negative Demon Domain Refinement Array.
The amount of various materials used was relatively large, and the categories involved were also relatively wide.
In order to find clues related to the other array foundation nodes, he had to find a way to get the information.
The higher-ups decided to start with the raw materials and find out the channels for selling these materials.
Every team of Transcendents had received a mission to track down one or two of the materials.
He could ensure that he could investigate all the channels involved in the various materials.
Then, through cross-information and comprehensive screening, they would find the key suspects.
When we were searching, we bumped into Captain Li.
We found several kinds of materials, all of which were Gu Qing.
However, as soon as he came over, he saw that he had already turned into a corpse.
In such a situation, the Secret Covenant Travel Agency might send someone over to eliminate the root of the problem.”
“I think so.”
Su Mo nodded, and a hint of regret appeared on his face.”
“If I knew this would happen, I would have come a few hours earlier.
This way, not only would he be able to successfully complete the transaction and obtain the Bewitching Spirit Crystal.
It might even be able to save his life, making it easier for him to trace the other array base nodes.”
Zhang Zhenyu stood up from the ground, rubbed his eyebrows slightly, and said with a heavy expression,
“I’ve just roughly read his memories before he died.
Because the other party’s level was higher than mine, I didn’t get much information.
What they knew was that he was making a deal with two people before he died.
One of them had blonde hair, a nose ring, a white T-shirt, and black pants. He looked to be a young man in his twenties.
The other one was extremely strong and was 1.9 meters tall. There was a string of green Buddha beads hanging around his neck. He looked like a middle-aged man.
From the information he had read from the memory fragments, the two sides knew each other and should have made a deal in the past.
According to my guess, this case should be committed by an acquaintance. The other party’s sudden attack caught Gu Qing off guard.
Other than that, I saw that the thing they were trading was clearly a box of Tengyang Grass.
It’s one of the extraordinary materials we’re investigating to set up the array foundation.
There was a high possibility that those two people were members of the Secret Covenant Travel Agency!”
Hearing this, everyone was shocked.
Su Mo’s eyes narrowed slightly.
He knew about the Soaring Sun Grass. It was a rare medicinal plant that could only be produced in certain special environments the Origin World.
It was usually used to make medicine. Every time it was refined, it only needed to add a little.
Basically, a stalk of Soaring Sun Grass could be refined into thousands of medicinal pills.
A whole box like this could definitely be considered a big deal.
If they had made a similar deal before.
It was only natural that Gu Qing would trust these two.
It was not difficult to understand why he was killed on the spot and could not counterattack in time.
From this, Su Mo came to a new conclusion.
Since the other party had bought the Soaring Sun Grass again, it meant that their new array foundation was still in the midst of being set up.
Moreover, they had brazenly attacked and killed the supplier. This meant that the entire array was almost completed.
He no longer needed more Tengyang Grass.
After coming to this conclusion, Su Mo’s heart could not help but sink.
Thinking back to what Bai Wuyuan had said back then, the [Great Five Elements Blood Domain Refinement Formation] was enough to sacrifice three million people after it was completed.
If the Great Five Elements Positive and Negative Demon Domain Refinement Formation that was derived and developed on the basis of the Great Five Elements Blood Domain Refinement Formation was successfully implemented, who knew what kind of hellish scene the city under their feet would become?
Su Mo frowned and squatted down beside Gu Qing’s body, pressing his hand on the corpse’s forehead.
Soon, countless pieces of information appeared before his eyes.
Before he could study the clues in detail.
Suddenly, a clear voice came from the front right,”
“Big brother, are you the Su Mo that my brother was talking about? He looked even more handsome in person!”
Su Mo turned to look.
The first thing she saw was a pair of cute lo shoes.
Further up were white stockings with fine texture.
It was followed by a pink checkered short skirt.
Then, he saw a white short-sleeved shirt.
Then, it was a delicate and small face.
There was a hint of familiarity in his eyes.
“You’re Li Jun’s sister…Li Ruoxi?”
Su Mo asked in surprise.
He did not expect to meet the Li siblings in this place.
“Looks like that text message was effective.”
Li Ruoxi smiled and said,
“I was going to treat you to a meal, but I bumped into you in seclusion.
He thought that he might not be able to meet her, but he did not expect to meet her here.
You can’t reject this meal anymore.”
“Actually, I haven’t done anything worth bragging about.
During Captain Li’s time, even if the two of them were not present, nothing would have happened to him.
You don’t need to thank me with this.”
Su Mo stood up and replied.
Li Ruoxi shook her head.
“It’s up to the person who’s being helped to decide whether or not he’s grateful.
Even if it was unintentional, if it made others feel grateful, then it was worth thanking.
Not to mention, it wasn’t as easy as you said it was.
It’s true that nothing will happen to my brother, but it’s inevitable that he’ll be traumatized or regretful.
If he could avoid these, he might be able to advance to Tier 7 more smoothly in the future.
Isn’t this worth thanking?”
“Then it’s up to you.”
Su Mo smiled and said,”
“I eat quite a lot for a meal.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll definitely fill you up.”
