In the inn…
“Here, I’ll return the cat to you.”
Xu Xiaoshou let out a breath, and the little guy in his hand swooned.
He handed the cat back to the servant and waved him out of the room.
The servant took the cat and walked out of the door. His face was full of disbelief.
What was this supposed to mean?
If he was not absorbed in his hobby of causing explosions, was he interested in pinching cats?
‘What a barbaric and strange fetish. Indeed, there are all kinds of fish in the sea.’
He felt sorry for the cat and stroked it with his hand gently.
This was the fortune cat in their store. Though he had expected many possibilities, he could not have known that this customer with the surname Xu would ask him to bring the cat over only to pinch it.
Who could think of that?
‘What a lunatic!’
“Woo…”
As a result, when he touched the cat, it suddenly screeched. The servant suddenly retracted his hand in fright.
He fixed his eyes on the cat.
It did not seem to be in pain. It looked as though it was comfortable.
The servant was confused.
…
Xu Xiaoshou was listening to the violent heaves on the phone. One could imagine how worked up Jiao Tangtang was at this moment.
He smiled, “Sister, don’t hang up the phone. I have something I need your help with.”
“Then speak. What’s the matter?”
Listening to her curt tone, he could tell that she was trying to calm herself down. Xu Xiaoshou smiled and said, “That’s right, let’s speak nicely. Don’t be so irritable!”
“Don’t run in circles. If you want to fart[1]…”
On the other end of the phone, she stopped herself in time.
Xu Xiaoshou curled his lips and said, “I need you to help me kill someone.”
“Hmm?”
Jiao Tangtang’s pitch rose. She glanced at Xin Gugu who was beside her and asked, “Kill someone? Are you sure you want to use this favor now?”
Given this communication jade scroll, it was equivalent to a favor.
Jiao Tangtang could not possibly do his bidding instantly when summoned. If Xu Xiaoshou activated this favor now, this communication jade scroll would only play the role of a communication device in the future.
‘Kill someone…’
Beside her, Xin Gugu’s eyes lit up. He licked his lips excitedly. He was looking forward to this task.
“Correct.”
Xu Xiaoshou affirmed, “I don’t just want you to kill someone, but I also need both of you to come right now!”
Jiao Tangtang asked, “On such short notice? What mess have you gotten to that you need us to wipe your ass now?”
“It’s a matter of life and death!”
Xu Xiaoshou was not joking. His tone became serious.
He glanced at the Information Bar.
The Watched notification appeared more frequently.
It was very ominous.
The feeling of his heart clenching in fear was very uncomfortable.
He knew that someone was spying on him, and the strength of the person was formidable.
Even when it was Li Seven, Xiao Sixteen, and the others, he had never felt that way before.
Moreover, those two guys were at the Master Stage.
What did this indicate?
Xu Xiaoshou’s heart sank. He thought of what Li Seven said before he died.
He knew that these people’s words were not credible, but what if they were true?
‘Three Incenses…’
‘The early-stage of Sovereign killer…’
Xu Xiaoshou admitted that if what Li Seven had said was just an empty threat before his death, he succeeded. Xu Xiaoshou was convinced of it now.
At least he was suppressed at this time, although he was still fearful and panicked.
