Miss Xueluo, since Young Master Yunfei is determined not to defend the arena for the Sun family it is useless for you to force him. Moreover, these five hundred thousand taels of silver are enough to offset the precious sword you gave him back then. Please don’t make things difficult for him.”
　　Zhou Liang on the side handed a stack of banknotes to Xuanyuan Xueluo.
　　“Bai Yunfei, I’ll ask you one last time, can you help me this time？”
　　Xuanyuan Xueluo slapped Zhou Liang’s hand away and stared at Bai Yunfei.
　　Everyone could see that Xuanyuan Xueluo should have a good impression of Bai Yunfei.
　　“Miss Xueluo, this favor, I can’t do it. Please forgive me.”
　　Bai Yunfei cupped his hands towards Xuanyuan Xueluo with an apologetic expression.
　　Xuan Yuan Xueluo remained silent for a moment, then snatched the stack of banknotes from Zhou Liang’s hand and turned around without hesitation and left.
　　Seeing this, Xu Taiping and Old Zhang immediately went up to meet her.
　　Although they knew that Xuan Yuan Xueluo’s mood should not be very good at this moment, they still had to think of a way to send this Xuan Yuan Xueluo back to the mansion in advance.
　　“Patta,　patta,　patta！”
　　However, before Xu Taiping and Old Zhang could speak, a burst of rapid horse hooves suddenly sounded at the entrance of the casino.
　　Soon, an old man dressed as a butler quickly walked up to Xuan Yuan Xueluo and said to Xuan Yuan Xueluo very eagerly：
　　“Miss Xueluo, the Second Miss asked me to ask you to return to the mansion quickly. There is an urgent matter！”
　　“The Second Sister is looking for me with an urgent matter？”
Hearing the words of this old man, Xuan Yuan Xueluo, whose eyes were originally dim, suddenly had her eyes light up.
　　“Yes, Third Miss. You should go back with this old slave quickly.”
　　The old man nodded repeatedly.
　　“Old Zhang, Rusty Lion, you come with me…”
　　“Third Miss, the situation is urgent. The Second Miss asked me to only take you back！”
　　Xuan Yuan Xueluo had just wanted to call Xu Taiping and Old Zhang, but before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by that old man.
　　Seeing that the old man’s tone was so urgent, Xuan Yuan Xueluo nodded and then turned to Xu Taiping and Old Zhang and said：
　　“There’s nothing for you to do today. You can go back to the mansion by yourself before evening.”
　　“Yes,　Miss　Xueluo.”
　　Xu Taiping and Old Zhang both cupped their hands.
　　It was only when Xuanyuan Xueluo turned around and walked quickly towards the carriage parked at the door with the old man that the two of them looked at each other.
　　Then they heard Old Zhang transmit a voice to Xu Taiping and say：
　　“Young master, this doesn’t seem like a coincidence.”
　　“I don’t think so either.”
　　Xu Taiping stared intently at the back of Xuanyuan Xueluo, and at the same time transmitted a voice to Old Zhang in his heart and said：
　　“It seems that many forces in this town have already known about the killing game set up by the demonic cultivators against us.”
　　Old Zhang nodded, and then put his hands behind his back. While walking side by side with Xu Taiping towards the door, he continued to transmit a voice to Xu Taiping in his heart and said：
“I remember that in this Mysterious Desolation Tower, many powerful and wealthy people like to regard the fight between strangers as a trick to watch. Maybe there are already powerful and wealthy people eagerly waiting for this hunt of the demonic cultivators against us.”
　　“The local powerful and wealthy people in the Mysterious Desolation Tower still have this hobby？” Xu Taiping was a little surprised.
　　“For these powerful and wealthy people, strangers and rare and exotic animals are no different.” Old Zhang nodded.
　　While speaking, the two had already walked out of the gambling house.
　　Zhou Liang in the gambling house looked from afar at the backs of Xu Taiping and Old Zhang walking towards Taohua Lane, and the corner of his mouth suddenly raised slightly and said：
Stranger, even if your luck is better, you will definitely not be able to avoid this time. After all, those people are the ghost cultivators of the Moon Worship Pavilion that even the Ghost Fang people are afraid of.”
　　……
　　“Second sister, what happened that you called me back in such a hurry.”
　　Xuan Yuan Xueluo, who returned to the mansion, quickly walked into her second sister’s study.
　　“Xueluo, do you know the identities of those bodyguards you found？”
　　The second sister asked Xuan Yuan Xueluo straightforwardly.
　　“They are… they are several strangers who just arrived in the town. What’s wrong？”
　　Xuan Yuan Xueluo hesitated for a moment and finally told the truth.
　　“Then do you know who they offended before coming to Qixian Town？”
　　The second sister asked again.
　　“This… how could I know？”
　　Xuan Yuan Xueluo’s heart tightened when she heard this, and a bad premonition arose in her heart.
　　“Sister, who exactly did they offend? Don’t keep me in suspense！”
　　She walked directly to the front of her second sister’s desk.
　　“See　for　yourself.”
　　The second sister pushed a spiritual mirror in front of Xuan Yuan Xueluo.
　　I saw that in the picture shown by the spiritual mirror at this moment, a young man carrying a knife and an old man with white hair with his hands in his sleeves were walking side by side towards the alley in front.
　　“Old Zhang？ Rusty Lion？”
　　Xuan Yuan Xueluo recognized the two at a glance.
　　Immediately afterwards, her gaze followed the two into the alley in front.
　　And the moment they entered the alley, the picture in the spiritual mirror suddenly darkened.
　　In her impression, Taohua Alley, which was originally brightly lit all year round, now had white lanterns hung up one by one, and blood-colored silk threads like spider webs were densely wound all over Taohua Alley.
　　And among these crisscrossing spider webs, more than a dozen huge spider cocoons were faintly visible.
　　“This… this is the Ghost Spider Array of the Moon Worship Pavilion？！”
　　Xuan Yuan Xueluo exclaimed.
　　“What on earth did these two do to make the Moon Worship Pavilion use the Ghost Spider Array？”
　　She looked at the second sister beside her with a somewhat panicked expression.
　　“It’s more than just the Ghost Spider Array？”
　　The second sister helplessly shook her head, then picked up a piece of white paper with a blood claw pattern printed on it from the table, and shook her head at Xuan Yuan Xueluo and said, “This is the Blood Hand Order sent by the Moon Worship Pavilion this morning, specifically ordering the killing of those strangers.”
