Chapter 106 I'm here to seek refuge with my relatives
But there was mostly pretense in that look, and the intention to escape was real.
"Then do you know about a small gang here called the Evil Gang? What's going on inside it? Who's behind it? What forces are involved?"
Ah Yao was stunned by the question. Her eyes flickered and she whispered, "Senior, do you have a grudge against this evil gang?"
Bai Lan smiled and shook his head: "No, I came to the Evil Gang to seek refuge with my relatives."
"Ah?" A Yao was shocked for a moment, and then frowned slightly: "Is that so..."
Bai Lan stared at her expression and said calmly: "Are you from the Evil Gang?"
"No, no, no, you're joking, senior. People in my line of work are not well-received, so I usually don't get involved in gangs."
A Yao smiled awkwardly, as if he was just an insignificant little cultivator.
"Only if you don't get involved in gangs and don't get involved in them can you have a more accurate judgment of the forces within Jinyuan City. Otherwise, how could a mere cultivator in the late stage of Qi Refining like you have such a huge deposit?"
I can only believe half of what this A Yao said.
Everyone is treated as a thief, and Bai Lan's credit value is already marked in red.
When his storage bag was stolen for the first time, A Yao was so confident before he knew Bai Lan’s true strength. He didn’t seem like an insignificant cultivator in the city. It was obvious that he had some hidden cards up his sleeve.
Now this smirk and cute look is probably just fake.
But compared to getting information from the waiters in the inns in the city and the low-level guides, it would be more appropriate to ask A Yao.
After all, in the world of cultivation, cultivation level is also a kind of identity restriction, and the information known by low-level cultivators is often limited.
On the contrary, for a thief like A Yao who walks the streets and turns stealing into a business, and has strong skills and cultivation...
It is easier to find out information about the dark side of Jinyuan City from her.
“There’s no need to play dumb. After all, in the world of cultivation, a simple casual cultivator can’t survive long. You’re not simple.” Bai Lan said as he shook the storage bag in his hand.
She is quite capable as she was able to steal so many monks' storage bags.
As soon as he saw the shaky storage bag in Bai Lan's hand.
A Yao then thought of the spirit stones that he had just lost.
When she thought of the spirit stones she had lost, her heart ached.
But not only could he not defeat the other party, he was also forced to swear a vow to his inner demons.
The one who can possess the consciousness of the Foundation Establishment Stage is most likely a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage who is pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger and has concealed his cultivation in the Qi Refining Stage.
A Yao sighed secretly and could only comfort himself in his heart, forcing himself not to look at the storage bag.
"If you are here to seek refuge with the Evil Demons, I can lead you there..."
"No rush. Tell me first about the current situation of the Evil Gang. What if the relative I have never met has already died? How can I find a place to stay?" Bai Lan said as he handed over a few spirit stones.
A Yao's eyes suddenly lit up and he took the spirit stones.
In the past, she would have looked down upon these spirit stones.
But looking at this extremely poor storage bag now, she would even want something as small as a mosquito leg!
"The leader of the Evil Demon Gang is an evil cultivator in the late stage of Qi Refining. He is vicious and cruel, and has great means. He likes to kill low-level cultivators with others to earn spirit stones."
"There are a few people in their gang. If the boss's cultivation is only at the late stage of Qi Refining, then the cultivation of other high-ranking members in the gang should not exceed the foundation building stage." Bai Lan thought and nodded: "Also, do you know that there is a person named He Mian in the Evil Gang?"
A Yao had a complicated expression.
This senior asked for details, it doesn't seem like he is going to visit relatives, but more like...
"There are only two late Qi Refining cultivators in their gang, but one of them has reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining. The rest of the middle and low-level Qi Refining cultivators are scattered around, totaling more than 20 people. It can only be regarded as a small gang in Jinyuan City." A Yao tentatively asked, "Could that person named He Mian be a relative of the senior?"
"Yes, you know him?" Bai Lan said with a loving smile: "I am his aunt."
When you go out, your identity is given by yourself.
"In fact, He Mian is the current leader of the Evil Demon Gang." A Yao said in a low voice: "Although his cultivation is only at the seventh level of the Qi Refining Stage, he can firmly sit in the position of the leader of the Evil Demon Gang. Even the cultivator who has reached the great perfection of the Qi Refining Stage is willing to sit in the position of second in command to assist him. I have always felt that he must be an extraordinary person... I didn't expect that the senior is actually his aunt?"
Bai Lan frowned slightly, nodded secretly, and took note of the information.
Could it be that this person has some means of controlling people's minds? He made a person with higher cultivation than himself submit to him...
"But there may be other reasons. After all... he is so handsome, too handsome to look like an evil cultivator, and it is hard to tell whether he is a man or a girl. Maybe the female cultivator who has reached the great perfection of the Qi Refining Stage is just lusting after his body..." A Yao spread his hands.
"..."
The key point is that he is handsome.
This kind of good-looking man is most likely Bai Ling's concubine.
True Man Qingxuan already has the physique of a succubus of the cold and aloof master type, so it is not impossible for him to have another concubine in his harem who has a physique of a succubus whose gender is difficult to distinguish.
So He Mian doesn’t have the means to control people’s minds...he just simply has the physique of a succubus?
Pity.
She was quite interested in the kind of magic that could confuse people, such as the Hehuan Sect's magic of charm.
Bai Lan nodded slightly disappointedly: "From what you said, it seems that their gang doesn't have any powerful backers? In a place like Jinyuan City where all kinds of people mix, without a backer, how can this evil gang survive?"
First, let’s see how big the backstage is.
If you are in the Jindan stage, you must consider it carefully, act quickly, wear a vest, and the escape route must be short and fast.
If it is just the foundation-building stage, then there is no problem and you can start right away.
A Yao shook his head: "Senior, you don't know that these evil cultivators also have principles. They usually only attack independent cultivators. Unless they are confident in their own strength, they usually don't attack disciples of sects or cultivators from aristocratic families."
For example, she usually wouldn't steal something without any assurance.
A Yao prides herself on being steady and cautious in doing things. She only steals storage bags from cultivators below the middle stage of Qi Refining. She must ensure that her spiritual sense is stronger than theirs so that she will not be discovered before she takes action.
I didn't expect that after being a thief all day long, I would fall into the hands of a man at the fifth level of Qi Refining today.
It’s ruined, completely ruined.
But the person on the other side was a Foundation Building cultivator who had concealed his cultivation level, so it couldn't be considered that his stealing skills were too bad.
“If there really is a backer, the Evil Gang would have grown stronger long ago and would not be as big as it is now.” A Yao chuckled.
Bai Lan nodded and fell into deep thought.
That makes sense. The awareness of these evil practitioners is stronger than that of Li Shizu's followers, and they know not to mess with people they can't afford to mess with.
Jinyuan City and Cangyuan City are actually different.
