Chapter 615: Too Many Suspects

Who told him to cultivate! Main text Chapter 666: Too Many Suspects "Benefactor Xu's house is not small."

Xu An smiled embarrassedly: "My parents were both cultivators and left behind a not-small fortune before they died. Unfortunately, my talent is limited, and I have never been able to step onto the path of cultivation, making the three of you laugh."

Since he couldn't cultivate, studying the books of sages hard and exchanging for fame and wealth could also be considered not disgracing his parents' name.

What's more regrettable is that he had no achievements in the imperial examination either.

Xu An usually didn't talk about these things with others, but the three of Lu Yang were exceptions.

He heard from Big Brother Zhong Ming that Shi Chan and the two protectors were very likely great cultivators at the Foundation Establishment or even Jin Dan stage. People with such cultivation wouldn't take a fancy to his meager property.

A yellow talisman was pasted on the inside of the Xu family's door. This was pasted by a ghost-driving cultivator before. Although it was useless, pasting it here could at least provide some peace of mind.

The four entered the Xu family, and coincidentally a girl was cleaning the courtyard. Judging from her relatively simple clothing, she was a maid.

Seeing the master leading three guests into the house, the maid hurriedly dodged to the side, lest she collide with the guests.

The maid looked pretty, and Meng Jingzhou took two extra looks.

"This is Sister Xiao Cui." Xu An said with a smile.

"Last year I went to take an exam and rested for a night in a mountain temple. Coincidentally, I met Sister Xiao Cui in the temple. Sister Xiao Cui said that evil people were chasing her and wanted to ask me to help cover for her. Later, several fierce-looking people broke into the mountain temple. I followed Sister Xiao Cui's words and covered for her, saving her. She said that such great kindness could not be repaid, so she became a maid for me."

"Greetings, Masters." Sister Xiao Cui said timidly, her tone soft.

Meng Jingzhou nodded, this was a female ghost.

The four passed through the hanging flower gate and entered the second courtyard. A richly dressed woman walked out of the room: "Husband, you came just in time, the three-hundred-year-old ganoderma you bought has already been stewed... Who are these three?"

The richly dressed woman was stunned when she saw the three of Lu Yang. A monk with two lay disciples?

"Xiangyu, why don't you hurry up and greet the three Masters."

"Didn't I keep saying that my sleep hasn't been good lately, as if I'm haunted by evil ghosts, making me mentally dazed all day long? I invited several cultivators, but it didn't have any effect."

"Isn't this, Big Brother Zhong Ming, who often deals with cultivators, recommended these three Masters, all of whom are experts with real skills."

"Let me introduce, this is my wife, Liu Xiangyu."

"So it is Benefactor Liu."

"Three Masters." Liu Xiangyu performed a blessing.

"I am just a woman, seeing my husband suffer every day, it pains my heart but I am powerless. I have troubled the three Masters."

"Amitabha, I will do my best."

Shi Chan didn't dare to make the words too full; this was a snake demon.

"Come, three Masters, please come inside." Xu An enthusiastically invited the three into the main hall to treat them well.

"That's not necessary, we need to carefully study the benefactor's house, so we can arrange it."

"That's good, that's good." Xu An was overjoyed. An expert is an expert, acting with vigor and speed.

"Xiao Zhu, come here."

Xu An shouted, and before long, another maid put down her work and hurried over.

"Xiao Zhu, take the three Masters to visit the courtyard."

"Go, good."

Xiao Zhu looked pleasant, her eyebrows full of emotion.

Lu Yang saw through Xiao Zhu's true form; she was a fox demon.

Before the three were taken away by Xiao Zhu, Liu Xiangyu happened to serve a bowl of black soup, which was the soup medicine made from the three-hundred-year-old ganoderma.

With Xu An's constitution, it was impossible to take a whole ganoderma in one breath. The soup only used a small part of the ganoderma.

Meng Jingzhou sniffed and frowned. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he smelled a trace of blood in the black soup.

The three carefully walked around the Xu residence and roughly grasped the situation of the Xu residence.

A house with three entrances and three exits, with five people living there, including Xu An and his wife and three maids.

Simply put, only Xu An was a human.

The third maid was named Xiao Qiu, and she was an artifact spirit.

When it was time for the vegetarian meal in the evening, Xu An looked at the three expectantly: "Three Masters, any discoveries?"

Shi Chan chanted an Amitabha: "There are discoveries, but the specific situation still depends on tonight."

There were too many suspects, and they weren't sure who did it.

"The three of us will guard beside Benefactor Xu tonight to protect Benefactor Xu."

"Then Xu will thank the three Masters first!"

The candles were blown out, and the three Masters meditated beside Xu An's bed. Xu An had a good mentality and was already fast asleep.

Suddenly, a gust of fragrant wind blew, and the consciousness of the three of Lu Yang lightened, and they fell into a deep sleep.

A graceful figure pushed open the bedroom door and looked at the three with a giggle.

"I wondered what kind of experts Benefactor invited, it turns out to be three little Jin Dan stage fellows."

Under the graceful figure's spiritual sense probing, she probed that the cultivation of all three was at the Jin Dan stage.

"I don't know when I can reveal my identity to Benefactor."

The graceful figure saw Xu An's sleeping face, licked her lips, took off her clothes, and kissed him lightly.

The two didn't touch, and a wisp of Yang energy drifted out from Xu An's lips and was absorbed by the graceful figure.

Then the graceful figure started touching him all over.

The three of Lu Yang pretended to be fast asleep, but actually, they were all secretly observing this scene and communicating with spiritual sense.

"Xu An has quite a lot of luck with women, this female ghost's cultivation is not low."

"No wonder he felt his Yang energy was insufficient, it would be strange if this Yang energy could be sufficient."

"So it was the maid Sister Xiao Cui who was absorbing Xu An's Yang energy."

"Disguised quite seriously."

Ghosts cannot touch real objects. When cleaning the courtyard during the day, she was actually posing and controlling it with her mind. The three discovered this point when they saw Sister Xiao Cui.

It was the same at this moment; Sister Xiao Cui was just absorbing Xu An's Yang energy and lingering with the other party in a dream. This was a method commonly used by lustful ghosts.

Meng Jingzhou was particularly sensitive to ghosts, which was why he took two extra looks at Sister Xiao Cui.

After a cloud and rain, Sister Xiao Cui left the Xu residence with satisfaction, and the three immediately followed to check.

It was late at night, and many shops had already closed.

Sister Xiao Cui came to the door of a closed shop, looked around, confirmed no one was there, and knocked lightly on the wooden door.

The other party seemed to know someone would come. As soon as someone knocked, they opened the door immediately.

Sister Xiao Cui walked into the shop generously.

Lu Yang looked up: "Come Again Barbecue Shop, Chunjiang City Branch."

"Welcome, Pavilion Master, to inspect this shop!" The barbecue shop assistant said respectfully.

"I've said it many times, our Nine Nether Sect does proper business, you should call me Shopkeeper."

"Yes, yes."

The assistant took out the account book: "This is today's revenue situation."

Sister Xiao Cui opened the account book and checked it item by item. The barbecue shop was the most important project of the Nine Nether Sect and could not afford mistakes.

Seeing that the Pavilion Master was in a good mood, the assistant suddenly said: "Shopkeeper, do you really want to keep being that Xu An's maid?"

"What kind of status are you, why do you need to do this? If you ask me, just reveal your identity and tie him up, press him to our place, he will follow everything."

The assistant was anxious. Their Pavilion Master was a dignified Nascent Soul stage cultivator, yet she was a maid in a mortal's home.

Sister Xiao Cui denied it in one mouthful: "No, Xu Lang saved my life, how can I do this to him?"

"As for revealing my identity, it's even more impossible. If he knew my identity, he would be labeled with the crime of hiding Demon Sect disciples. How can he take the imperial examination in the future?" ===== CHAPTER 616 =====
