Alchemy master in the city

Chapter 733
"Now it's labor and management who are asking you questions, not you asking me!"

Facing the middle-aged man's rhetorical question, Li Huan sneered coldly, "Tell me, did you use the 'Five Poison Palm' to injure the labor-manager's woman?"

Although Li Huan guessed in his heart, the middle-aged man in front of him should be the murderer who injured Bei Chuanjing.

But he found that this middle-aged man did not have the smell of blood that he had been looking for before.

In such a situation, one possibility is that the person in front of him is not the murderer he wants to find.

Another possibility is that he is the murderer, but he just used some special method to cover up or change his aura.

It was precisely because of this uncertainty that Li Huan didn't do it directly.

"Five Poison Palms!"

When Li Huan said these three words, the eyes of the middle-aged man flickered slightly, and then he returned to a calm state.

"Young man, I don't know what the 'five poisonous palms' you are talking about. I have stayed here all day today, and I have never gone out at all, and it is impossible to have conflicts with anyone!"

"You want to find the villain who hurt your friend, I suggest you go somewhere else, don't waste your time with me."

The middle-aged man looked at Li Huan seriously, with a very calm tone, showing a clear conscience.

However, the moment his eyes flickered before was just caught by Li Huan.

Therefore, Li Huan had certain doubts about the authenticity of what he said.

"Really? Are you sure you haven't stepped out of here all day?" Li Huan stared at the middle-aged man in front of him with burning eyes, not letting go of any changes in his expression.

The middle-aged man was not frightened by Li Huan's words, and still said calmly: "Of course, my strength has reached a peak, and I feel that today is just the opportunity to break through, so I have been working on it since last night. Stay here to practice and wait for the moment of breakthrough."

"Young man, I think you are also a good practitioner. You should understand the importance of breaking through your own limits, right?"

"Understood, of course!"

Li Huan nodded, and then he stretched out his hand to point to a few footprints on the ground, and said in a cold tone: "You said you have been staying here, so I would like to ask, why are there so many fresh dirt footprints on the ground? Could it be stepped on by some cat or dog?"

Li Huan also just discovered these fresh footprints on the ground. On the way here, he passed a place with relatively humid soil.

The color of the soil in that place was almost exactly the same as what I saw in front of me, and it also smelled of motor oil.

Therefore, he has reason to believe that if this middle-aged man is not lying, there is probably another person hiding here.

However, what puzzled him was that with his current strength, if there was really another person hidden here, he shouldn't be unable to sense it.

Hearing Li Huan's question, the expression on the middle-aged man's face changed, but disappeared in an instant. After he snorted coldly, he became very impatient and waved his hand.

"I don't know what you are talking about, and I don't know what these footprints are. Young man, I still have to hurry up to practice and break through. Please don't bother me. I'd better get out of here quickly and find what you want. Villains!"

After finishing these words, the middle-aged man's gaze was invisible, and he glanced at a pile of sundries more than two meters high on the left hand side.

"In this case, then I won't disturb your practice, please continue!"

Li Huan cupped his fists apologetically, then turned around and left.

"call……"

After secretly watching Li Huan's figure walk away completely, the middle-aged man finally secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and then he quickly returned to the pile of debris that he had glanced at before.

"People have already left, you can come out!"

The middle-aged man patted a bag of sundries and said in a neutral tone.

And as soon as his words fell, the items on top of the two-meter-high pile of debris rolled down from the top, and then a short, very thin figure came out of it.

"Old ghost, it's really thanks to your wit that you tricked that kid away this time, or else we two would have a tough fight today!"

The short man who emerged from the pile of debris looked at the middle-aged man with a smile.

The five appearances of this short man are quite upright, much better looking than the middle-aged man's sharp-mouthed monkey-cheeked face.

However, the short man's eyes were full of sternness, and it was obvious at a glance that he was not a decent person.

The middle-aged man known as the "Old Ghost" heard the short man's words, his face darkened, and he said dissatisfiedly: "How dare you say that if you didn't make a rash move tonight, how could that kid track you down here? Come?"

"Hey, that... I didn't know that kid just now was so powerful. I cleaned up the scene, but I didn't expect him to track him down here!"

"Fortunately, I was smart enough. When I came back here, I used 'Wan Qingshui' to isolate and cover up all my aura, so that he didn't notice it, or I would be in trouble."

The short man said with some embarrassment, and from this sentence, he could also know his identity. It was the mysterious man wearing a mask who injured Bei Chuanjing with the "Five Poison Palm".

"Hmph, it's also fortunate that you have 'Wan Qingshui' with you this time, otherwise we might all have to report to Lord Yan tonight!"

The middle-aged old ghost said coldly, his face was very ugly.

"Old ghost, isn't what you said a little too exaggerated? If I'm not wrong, the kid who found here just now should be the guy called Li Huan that the employer told us about."

After hearing the middle-aged old ghost's words, the short man was a little unconvinced, and continued: "Didn't the employer tell us that the kid surnamed Li's strength is at most the level of a first-class mid-level warrior?"

"Based on the strength of our two first-rate late stage players, it's fine if the kid surnamed Li doesn't make a move. If he really dares to make a move, he will definitely be wiped out in a minute."

Saying this, the short man raised his two arms, and showed a pair of black hands in front of the middle-aged old ghost, as if to explain to him that he was very powerful.

"Old Poison, I really don't know whether to say that you are naive, or that you have become stupid with water in your head?" The middle-aged old ghost looked at the short man with contempt.

"Old ghost, what do you mean by that?"

The short man's face became gloomy. The words of the middle-aged old ghost stimulated his self-esteem. If it wasn't because he knew that he was of the same strength as the latter, and he wouldn't get any benefit at all, he would definitely take the opportunity to teach him a lesson. old man.

"Old ghost, you'd better give me a reasonable explanation, otherwise, even if I risk my life, I will never make it easier for you!"

The little man said again, he felt that he should protect his dignity from being violated by others.

"Hmph, you want to explain, right? Well, I'll explain it to you right away!"

The middle-aged old ghost snorted coldly, still glared at the short man angrily, and said, "You know, when that kid surnamed Li came here just now, he was half a meter behind me , but I still didn't notice it until he made a sound and didn't realize his arrival."

"No...Impossible?"

After hearing the words of the middle-aged boss, the short man's eyes widened, and he looked at the middle-aged old man in disbelief.

"Why, do you think I'm lying to you? Don't you think about it, is there any benefit for me to lie to you about this kind of thing?" The middle-aged old ghost asked back.

"No!" The short man nodded honestly, and said again: "So, what you just said is true?"

"Aren't you talking nonsense?" The middle-aged old ghost snorted angrily.

"In that case, I'm afraid this kid's strength is not as simple as first-class mid-term!"

The short man's expression became a little dignified. He has cooperated with the middle-aged old ghost for many years, and it can be said that he knows exactly what kind of strength the latter has.

Even when the kid surnamed Li approached half a meter behind him, he didn't notice any movement, which shows how terrifying the kid's strength was just now.

If he hadn't made a sound to remind him just now, but had acted directly, I'm afraid that the old ghost would already be a cold corpse by now, right?

In the heart of the little man, there was some fearful conjecture.

"Old ghost, how strong is that kid surnamed Li just now?"

After clearing up his mood, the short man asked the middle-aged old ghost about Li Huan's strength.

Hearing the short man's words, the middle-aged old ghost lowered his head and pondered for a while before replying: "I think he may be at the top of the first-class realm, but it is more likely that he is a quasi-innate master!"

"What? A quasi-innate master!"

The short man couldn't help but exclaimed. If the middle-aged old ghost only said that Li Huan was in the top-tier realm, he wouldn't be so shocked.

After all, Li Huan was able to quietly get close to the middle-aged old ghost in the first-class late stage without being discovered. This ability must be higher than that of the old ghost.

However, his companion actually said that Li Huan was a "quasi-innate master" strength, so the short man had to be shocked.

The short man has been learning martial arts since he was ten years old, and it has been 35-[-] years now.

And his strength is only at the level of the first-class late stage.

Even if it is still a long way from the first-class peak state.

According to his estimation, if he wants to reach the top level, he needs at least four or five years of hard training.

In other words, he has to wait at least until he is over 50 years old before he can reach the top-tier peak level.

This kind of cultivation speed is considered to be very fast in the warrior world.

However, now his companion, a middle-aged old ghost, actually said that Li Huan, a young man in his early twenties, might possess the strength of a quasi-innate master.

How could this not excite him?
Even if he started practicing from birth, that kid surnamed Li only has [-] years of skill. How can he surpass himself so much?
Don't look at first-class late-stage warriors and quasi-innate-level masters, there is only a difference of two small realms between the two.

The strength comparison between them can be compared with a healthy and strong adult with a kid who has just turned three years old.

The force value of the latter is completely better than that of a three-year-old kid, which is definitely a huge gap.

"Old ghost, don't you think too highly of that kid just now? I think his age is only in his early twenties at most? He has already reached the quasi-innate master that countless warriors can't reach in their entire lives. Boundary?"

After thinking about it for a long time, the short man still felt that what the middle-aged old ghost said was a little too exaggerated.
