Chapter 387 Delivered To The Door
Wherever the golden flame went, nothing escaped being burned. Everything turn into ashes.
To the side, the Little Golden Dragon loudly clapped his hands. “Laoda is mighty, destroy all these harmful items!”
In the time it took to burn a stick of incense, the several hundred bound black spirit plants this underground laboratory had been cultivating for several hundred years was completely destroyed by Hexi.
She collected all the corpses and using a storage ring, she stored all the skeletons inside. When this whole situation was over, she was going to bury them outside.
These people had no way to live a good life, so she hoped they would be able to rest in peace after death.
After completely destroying the underground laboratory, Hexi brought the Little Golden Dragon along the the former road, heading back.
This one time, she didn’t intend to conceal her figure.
Since Xiao Li had already been saved, her only goal now was to make these brutes pay their debt in blood.
Once the patrolling martial artists in the backyard saw Hexi, they all rushed forward to surround her.
Moreover, all these martial artists were at high rank Foundation Establishment stage and all their clothes was the same. Between advance and retreat, they became each other’s corners, closing off all ways of escape. It was clear they were well-trained and cooperative.
The thirty year old tall man leading them pointed at Hexi, strictly yelling, “Where did this rude youngster come from, daring to enter my Jiang family’s restricted area.”
As he was talking, he was also pointing the gun in his hand at Hexi. His body exploded with fierceness.
Hexi slowly raised her eyebrow and repeated one sentence, “Jiang family?”
Before coming to Other Courtyard, she always believed that this whole matter was orchestrated by Doctor Xie.
But the two martial artists who were just skinned inside the basement had kept saying that it was Elder Jiang who let them do it.
Now this guard also said, this was Jiang family’s Other Courtyard.
In other words, Doctor Xie was related to these matters, but he wasn’t the mastermind. There was still someone behind him.
Moreover, it was this person being called Elder Jiang.
When the group of guards saw Hexi’s reaction, they immediately burst into loud laughter.
One of the people inside the group even said towards the lead martial artist, “Captain, there’s no need to ask anymore. It’s certain he’s a lost little cash cow that, by chance, doesn’t have eyes and was delivered to our door.”
“However, since this is the case and he delivered himself to our door, we should accept him. It just happens to be that a few days before, didn’t Elder Jiang also said that there wasn’t enough Medicinal Fertilizers to use?”
“Look at this youngster, such soft and tender flesh, abundant spiritual energy. And even though he is only at Foundation Establishment stage, he escaped our eyes and ears and entered Other Courtyard. It can be assumed he has some sort of capability. As I see it, he is just right to be a Medicinal Fertilizer.”
This group of guards encircling Hexi accessed from head to toe, apparently, they didn’t put her in their eyes at all.*
Hexi actually let out an eerie smile. “Medicinal Fertilizer? Are you talking about those martial artists underground that are used to raise bound black spirit plants?”
“What?!” When the captain of the guards heard what she said, his complexion immediately changed. “You went to the basement?”
“How is this possible?” Another guard cried out in fear, “The basement is guarded by a mysterious iron door that’s a hundred jin [1]. Even a Nascent Soul stage martial artist wouldn’t be able to force it open without the help of a magic weapon!”
Hexi lightly fiddled with the Purple Abyss Vine in her hands, unhurriedly saying, “Not only have I been to it, I also completely burned those unsightly black plants.”
“Therefore, even if you guys find countless more Medicinal Fertilizers, I’m afraid it’s useless.”
When everyone heard what she said, their facial expressions became bewildered.
Just at this moment, she heard the alarmed cry of another group of patrolling guards from behind her. “The basement…… The basement is on fire. The fire spread up to here…… In addition, it’s spiritual fire. Simply can’t extinguish it!!”
