328 Chaotic Situation

Situ Feixing explained: "Our Shadow Puppet Palace has placed some informants in the Profiteer's Guild. This matter came from within the Profiteer's Guild."

"The guild of profiteers?" Zhu Youchen was slightly startled, and continued to pretend to be stupid: "Why are you involved with the guild of profiteers again?"

"The root cause of this matter is that a profiteer obtained a magnificent Taoist spirit in Lanxin City." Situ Feixing said.

"Then do you know any other clues?" Zhu Youchen asked.

"No more." Situ Feixing smiled bitterly and shook his head: "If we had known other clues, we wouldn't be as confused as now."

Zhu Youchen secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Have you gone to some surrounding towns to investigate?"

"What do you mean, brother?" Situ Feixing asked in a daze.

"I just think that the source of the grand soul may not be Lanxin City, but may be any surrounding town." Zhu Youchen pretended to be serious and helped analyze, but in fact he was confusing the audience.

Situ Feixing said thoughtfully: "Don't say it, it's really possible."

"By the way, Brother Situ, for such a big matter, are you the only ones sent here by your palaces?" Zhu Youchen asked casually.

"It's just a secret investigation. Naturally, the smaller the noise, the better." Situ Feixing sighed: "It's a pity that the news eventually leaked."

"That's right." Zhu Youchen nodded thoughtfully, "Then what is Brother Situ going to do next?"

"What else can we do? Keep investigating~!" Situ Feixing said with a look of helplessness: "You can't just ignore the investigation just because the news is leaked, right? After all, it involves the great Taoist soul and must be investigated."

Hearing this, Zhu Youchen didn't say anything more. After a few simple greetings, he dragged his tired body back to the room.

The moment he walked back to the room, Zhu Youchen suddenly woke up and secretly ran to the study.

As soon as they entered the study, Kang Chenzi waved his hand to close the door, and then set up a soundproofing ban with a solemn expression, "Master, I heard your conversation just now, but I didn't expect that it was the macro soul that caused the trouble last time. "

"Teacher, should we find another place to hide?" Zhu Youchen asked seriously.

"It's not necessary." Kang Chenzi shook his head thoughtfully: "The profiteers probably just accidentally leaked the information and did not betray us, so so far, we are still safe."

"Since the news was accidentally leaked, why didn't the profiteers inform us?" Zhu Youchen asked suspiciously.

"Notify? How to notify us?" Kang Chenzi said dumbfounded: "Now every move of the profiteer guild is being watched. If he dares to send someone to notify us, isn't he leading the way?"

Zhu Youchen nodded suddenly.

"But I have to say that this operation of the profiteer guild is still very smart. It has informed us in another way." Kang Chenzi said meaningfully.

"Did you notify us in another way?" Zhu Youchen asked confused.

Kang Chenzi nodded and smiled: "If I guess correctly, the large-scale leakage of the news was caused by the profiteer guild."

Zhu Youchen was startled for a moment, and then his eyes lit up. When he thought about it carefully, it seemed that this was really the case.

"Then what do we need to do next?" Zhu Youchen asked seriously.

"In the face of ever-changing circumstances, just stay the same and continue as usual." Kang Chenzi mused: "In many cases, the most dangerous place is the safest place."

Zhu Youchen nodded and said, "Does the disciple need to mislead Situ Feixing and the others?"

"It's enough to mislead appropriately. Misleading too much can easily arouse suspicion." Kang Chenzi said.

"Okay, disciple knows what to do." Zhu Youchen nodded clearly, and then left the study as if nothing happened. …

The next day, Fire Princess Zuo Ci also learned about Hongwei Daopo and started investigating directly with Situ Feixing. As the daughter of the Scarlet Fire King, she naturally knew the importance of Hongwei Daopo.

As for Merolo, apart from being curious, there was not much reaction. After all, Merolo didn't actually know about Kang Chenzi's ability to refine macro souls.

He hurried out early in the morning, probably to pick up people from their chamber of commerce.

Zhu Youchen, as usual, went to Lanxin Academy to help the students make magic corrections.

In the next few days, the news of the magnificent Dao Po in Lyceum City began to spread rapidly, and it became known to everyone in just a few days.

For a time, Lan Xincheng, who had just finished the Secret Realm of the Beast King, was once again pushed to the forefront.

Masters from various forces began to gather one after another. The entire Lanxin City suddenly became panicked, and various rumors about Hong Po began to spread in the streets and alleys.

Although Zhu Youchen helps students make magic corrections in the academy every day, he can also hear a lot of news from the students.

Unknowingly, the academy's magic modification list was almost completed, but Situ Feixing and the others still made no progress in their investigation. Instead, they were surrounded by various rumors.

After coming out of Lanxin College and walking on the street, Zhu Youchen could clearly feel that there were many powerful people among the passers-by.

We went all the way to Mr. Huang's shop in the business district. After purchasing some demon refining and magic modification materials, we went to Fenghuo Tower.

As he expected, the hub hall at this time has long been occupied by the eye spies of the major forces, and there are people paying close attention to every move of the profiteers anytime and anywhere.

It can also be seen from this that there has been no substantial progress in the investigation by all parties, and this is exactly the result Zhu Youchen wants.

After returning to the courtyard, Zhu Youchen and Melolo returned to a peaceful study life.

Over the past few days, Melolo's mechanical skills have improved greatly, research on Mei Dandan has also made some new progress, and Zhu Youchen's magic modification ability has also been greatly improved.

Although the magic reform has made great progress, the basic magic refining cannot be left behind.

So after completing the list of magic reforms in Lyceum Academy, Zhu Youchen put aside the research and study of magic reforms for the time being, and continued to study the basics of magic refining.

As for Situ Feixing and the other three, there are basically no people around these days. If they come back occasionally, they will leave soon.

There was no way. After the news was leaked, all the big and small forces in the entire group of states were investigating the source of Hong Po. The competition became particularly fierce. How could they dare to waste time?

Therefore, when the entire Lanxin City was in panic and chaos, the small courtyard became much quieter.

"By the way, senior brother, how are your progress towards the stars?" Melolo asked while tinkering with the mechanical components in his hands.

"The whole army was wiped out." Zhu Youchen said, "What about you?"

"Hehe, I'm really sorry, the little girl has been promoted to four stars." Melolo said proudly.

Zhu Youchen's forehead went dark and he couldn't help but feel speechless. He had tried to reach the stars twice more in the past few days, but without exception, the entire army was wiped out, which made him somewhat frustrated.

After all, he has reached the stars three times. Based on the price of 72 for each level [-] magic star, he has already squandered [-].

Of course, 72 is nothing to him now. The key is that he failed to succeed in three consecutive star rushes. It is conceivable how difficult it is for a golem to rise to a star starting from three stars.
