Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 2387: Chapter 2388: Gourd Girl (Part 2)

A trace of defiance flashed in Guang Zhong’s eyes, as if he was contemplating something.

Ming Qi keenly noticed this and sneered, ”I know what you’re thinking. Do you feel I’m so arrogant that you’re ready to go back and complain to the Family Head?”

Guang Zhong trembled, his face turning somewhat pale.

Ming Qi laughed coldly and continued, ”Let me tell you, your thoughts are delusional because do you even understand what’s going on now?”

”That young girl is clearly transformed from the Lou Family’s artifact, which means her importance is increased a hundredfold, even a thousandfold. I believe the Family Head would spare no expense to obtain her!”

”Thus, if in this process some heir dies unexpectedly, I’m sure the Family Head wouldn’t care too much! Don’t you think so? My dear brother!”

Guang Zhong shivered even more violently.

Because he felt a strong murderous intent emanating from Ming Qi.

”I’m only telling you this to make you understand the current situation. Actually, if we can’t capture that young girl, neither of us will have a good ending, but if we do capture her, we shall be richly rewarded. So from now on, you better obediently listen to me and not disobey any more, understood?”

”Un...understood!” Guang Zhong nodded, and with great difficulty added two more words.

”Brother!”

Ming Qi nodded satisfactorily, ”Good, now that’s my good brother!”

Saying this, he released his grip.

Guang Zhong let out a breath and finally steadied his posture, but then felt his cheek burning with pain, evidently Ming Qi did not hold back in slapping him just now.

But now he couldn’t care less about that.

”Bro... Brother, what should we do next?”

Ming Qi looked up at the Medicinal Workshop floating high across several blocks, speaking coldly, ”Inside the Medicinal Workshop, we are completely powerless, but I don’t believe they can stay inside forever without coming out!”

”So from now on, we need to closely monitor the entire Medicinal Workshop. As soon as they come out, immediately follow them without missing a beat! Is that understood?”

”Yes!”

The subordinates soon dispersed their formations, spreading across numerous blocks around the Medicinal Workshop, forming a tight monitoring network.

As it turned out, they didn’t wait long, because just one hour later, Mo Changhong happily led Xiang Xiang, Nian Nian, and the young girl out of the Medicinal Workshop.

Following behind them were Xue An and An Yan and their companions.

Seeing this, the subordinates in charge of surveillance immediately reported the situation to Ming Qi.

Ming Qi was stunned upon hearing it.

”What? Mo Changhong is following too?”

”Yes! And it seems they’re going to shop together!”

Ming Qi’s face was filled with bewilderment.

He originally thought Mo Changhong had stopped them from acting earlier just to uphold the prestige of the Medicinal Workshop.

But now seeing this situation, things seemed far from simple!

Could it be that Mo Changhong or rather the Medicinal Workshop already knows about the Lou Family’s artifact and decided to get involved?

This thought made Ming Qi shiver with fear.

If indeed that’s the case, then this matter would really be quite tricky.

”Sir, what should be our next move?” A subordinate asked hesitantly, seeing Ming Qi remain silent for a long time.

Ming Qi secretly clenched his teeth, they’ve come so far, thinking of something else won’t solve anything, so he spoke gravely, ”Continue surveillance and tracking, but be careful not to act rashly, lest we get discovered!”

”Understood!”

The subordinates took their orders and left.

Guang Zhong looked at Ming Qi with a heavy expression and couldn’t help but ask, ”Just track them?”

”What else? Do you intend to snatch it right in front of Mo Changhong?”

”But won’t this miss the timing? After all, the longer this Lou Family situation drags on, the more likely other forces will notice it!”

Guang Zhong wasn’t entirely clueless, after all, he was the first to handle this matter, hence he understood the key points.

Ming Qi sighed deeply, ”We’ll just take it one step at a time. If things really develop as you fear, then we’ll just have to resign ourselves!”

”Just hope Mo Changhong is merely amused for the moment and knows nothing about the inner workings! Only then do we have a slight chance!”

”So you must not act rashly now, lest you alert others!”

As the day of the gathering approaches, the marketplace becomes increasingly lively.

Cultivators from all around the Sky Beyond the Skies have crowded in, making it packed, while stalls stretched endlessly.

For those who love shopping, this is truly paradise.

At least Mo Changhong seemed quite interested, walking around and occasionally stopping to buy some trinkets for the young girl and Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian.

It’s evident she genuinely likes the three of them.

An Yan, following behind, couldn’t help but whisper, ”Honey, why are we shopping with this woman?”

Xue An shrugged, ”I have no idea!”

An Yan was left speechless by this answer, and after a long while she murmured, ”Why do I feel this woman is kind of strange!”

”Of course she’s strange, being an ojou-sama herself yet having a liking for young girls, that’s inherently odd!” Xue An said lightly.

”Hmm? What did you say?” An Yan asked, somewhat unclear.

Xue An smiled slightly, ”Nothing, as there’s still time until the gathering day, we’re just killing time, think of it as going out for fun!”

Just then, the young girl walking along with Mo Changhong stopped abruptly.

”Hmm? Xiao Gourd, what’s wrong?” Mo Changhong asked curiously.

The name, you see, was because Mo Changhong thought the young girl, though able to speak, was extremely silent, often not reacting even when spoken to, like an unyielding gourd, hence giving her the nickname Xiao Gourd.

The young girl didn’t object to that, nor did she show any expression, so the name stuck.

At the moment, Xiao Gourd blinked her big dark eyes, staring straight across the street.

Mo Changhong followed her gaze and saw a building across the street.

This building was rather tall and lavishly decorated, standing out prominently among the low stall district, very eye-catching.

Mo Changhong was slightly stunned, then revealed a faint smile.

Because she recognized this building.

This building is an auction venue, named Tianhe Auction House.

The Tianhe Auction House is renowned throughout the Pharmacists’ Alliance, with venues spread across all spheres within the alliance.

This is the planet’s venue, and as the Medicinal Workshop’s Shopkeeper on this planet, she naturally knows about it.
