Chapter 56: Waves of Trouble Rise

  Before it was light, some people who got up early were surprised to find that all the patrol team members were lying unconscious in the middle of the street. They ran to the city gate to inform the soldiers on duty, but found that all the guards at the city gate were also unconscious on the ground, and the city gate was wide open!

  Something big must have happened! Better to have one less thing, they were scared in their hearts and immediately ran back home, locked the door again, and continued sleeping as if nothing had ever happened.

  Of course, paper can't wrap fire, and they didn't report to the city master when something happened here, someone always found out and reported it to the city master. Although those soldiers who fainted and couldn't wake up were taken away by people sent by the city master before dawn, before people got up and went out, it was still spread by those who got up earliest and secretly returned home, after all, this matter was too unexpected.

  Some of them who loved to show off told their friends beside them about what they had seen when they got up in the morning, and those friends told their friends... In this way, things that the city master wanted to deliberately conceal were known by everyone in the city in a short time! Moreover, it was not only this, but also the fact that the largest slave market in Luo Ya City was empty of people was also known to all.

  This slave market is the largest in Luo Ya City, and describing it as a place where money flows like water is actually an understatement! It's precisely because of its wealth that everyone knows that in the past, some adventurers or thieves would try to make a fortune by sneaking in at night, but none have ever succeeded. Apparently, it's because there's a Saint-level superpower user stationed inside.

  According to the shop assistant next to the slave market, he got up early in the morning and found that the slave market, which usually opened late, was open. The two warriors who were usually standing at the door were not there either. Curious, he ran over to take a look and found that there was no one inside where many slaves used to be, and all the doors of the cages for holding slaves were already open!

  Moreover, after he plucked up the courage to go inside, he found that it was also like this, and even the innermost great hall had not a single person, and there were many signs of fighting in the great hall.

  From the situation at the slave market, plus the city gate guards and patrol knights, everyone guessed a result: someone had let all the slaves run away from the slave market, and even fought with the people in the slave market. After letting the slaves go, they also confused all the patrol knights and city gate guards while escaping!

  Who is so powerful? Why did they let all the slaves go? Where have all the people from the slave market gone? Not only are all the civilians in Luo Ya City discussing this issue, but also other high-ranking officials in the city.

  Apart from the fact that there were fire mages fighting here, as evidenced by the burn marks on the walls of the great hall, and the confirmation that the ashes inside the great hall were human remains burned at high temperatures, nothing else was known. According to their intelligence, there was a very powerful fire saint mage in this slave market. What did he have to do with those ashes? And where was he now? Everyone was baffled!

  The whole city is discussing the three questions above, and as the protagonists of this event, our Little Meteor and Little Spring are now talking to the old man who has been awakened by his own rescue.

  The old man didn't wake up until after 7 o'clock in the morning. By this time, Xiaoliuxing and Xiaochuntian had both rested well and finished their breakfast. When he first woke up, the old man didn't have any feeling, but just stared at Xiaochuntian with a strange gaze, who was looking at him with bright eyes and smiling.

  There's no way, it was Little Spring's input of energy into his body that made him suffer so much, and it was this harmless and lovely girl in front of him who knocked him out! In the past, many people had told him that there were two kinds of people you couldn't afford to offend: the elderly and children. Now he wanted to revise that saying, replacing "children" with "girls who look extremely cute". The pain in his heart at that time was more unbearable than death itself.

  "What are you staring at me for? Is there something wrong?" The old man's eyes were fixed on Xiaochun Tian, and he felt a bit uneasy. He slowly retreated into the bed while speaking to Xiaochun Tian in beast language. In his mind, Xiaochun Tian was a high-level beast tribe transformed human, so naturally, he used the beast tribe language to communicate with him. Coincidentally, both Xiaoliu Xing and Xiaochun Tian really understood what he said, and they could even speak it, which further confirmed his speculation.

  Seeing the old man's frightened expression, thinking about his expression when he fainted at that time, Xiaoliuxing still felt that although this old man was quite capable and very old, he was also very cute. However, he didn't smile, his principle was that he could only show his true nature in front of the people closest to him, and it was not allowed for anyone else, this was the Jianghu code taught by his grandfather! And now his only close relative is Xiaochuntian.

  So he only smiles when it's Xiao Chun Tian. Of course, he also knows that living with a mask on is tiring, so he doesn't ask Xiao Chun Tian to do the same, nor does he tell him about this matter.

  Although the old man is not very brave, being able to speak the beast language still delighted Xiao Liu Xing. Originally, he had planned to learn human language from that boss in Meisha Town before coming out to mix, but unexpectedly something happened and he could only hastily learn a few commonly used words, which made Xiao Liu Xing feel sorry for him.

  Didn't expect to run into another one that can speak so soon, this time I must seize the opportunity and not let him get away. Xiao Liuxing thought to himself! However, thinking about it, this old man doesn't know how many years he's lived either, knowing the Beast Tribe language isn't very strange after all.

  "Grandpa, don't be afraid, I'll just take a look and see how your body is recovering. Then we can decide if we need to unseal your true strength or not. Be good, it won't hurt anymore, I promise I'm not lying to you!" Little Spring saw the old man hiding at the edge of the bed and also used the beast tribe language to comfort him like an adult comforting a child.

  An old man was looked down upon by a little girl, and with the disdainful gaze of Little Liuxing beside her, despite having seen many grand scenes, he still felt his old face burning slightly. "Cough cough", the old man cleared his throat twice, then put on an air of nonchalance, stretching out his left hand to the bedside where Xiao Chun Tian had sat down, smiling as he looked at Little Spring in front of him, remembering that yesterday Little Spring had channeled true energy into her body by touching his wrist.

  However, when his hand was halfway there, he suddenly remembered something and looked at Xiaochuntian with a shocked expression. "You... you... said... give me... unseal... seal?" Although Xiaochuntian had just not said what to unseal for him, the only thing sealed on his body was his strength!

  More than 40 years! He had been dreaming for more than 40 years, with countless hardships and struggles in between. Only he himself could deeply understand the suffering he went through. There were many times when he wanted to give up on life, but he overcame them all. A former peerless strongman, reduced to being a slave, yet still managed to live on strongly. The willpower alone was something that ordinary people couldn't bear, let alone the pain brought by the severe poison every day.

  "Yes, old man, but we need to check your physical endurance first before deciding how much to unseal for you." Little Spring said with a smile to the old man who was stuttering due to tension. "Wuuu..." Hearing Little Spring's affirmative response, the old man could no longer hold back and burst into loud tears. Fortunately, Little Flowing Star had set up a soundproof barrier in the house because she was afraid of outside noise disturbing her cultivation, otherwise it would be embarrassing if someone heard him.

  Seeing an old man cry like this in front of him, it's indeed a bit shocking. At least he made Xiaochun Tian's eyes red and furrowed Xiaoliu Xing's brow. "What's wrong with this old man? He's only met Spring twice and has already made her cry twice." Xiaoliu Xing thought angrily to himself.

  Just as Xiaoliu Xing was about to give the old man another lesson, the old man suddenly stopped crying, very abruptly, which made Xiaoliu Xing feel strange. Since he wasn't crying anymore, there was no need to scold him again. Xiaoliu Xing relaxed his furrowed brow and went to wipe away the tears on Xiao Chun Tian's face, who had also stopped crying in surprise at the old man's sudden stop.

  The old man wasn't naturally this strong, able to stop on a dime. He was only stopped by that murderous aura just as he was about to teach Xiaoxingxing a lesson. This was the keen sense of awareness towards murderous aura that his body had developed through thousands and tens of thousands of life-and-death battles!

  What is Xiao Liuxing's current strength, and what is Lao Tou's current strength? Although it was just a thought that was frightened by a little lesson, the murderous aura that inadvertently revealed itself still made the old man who was an ordinary person feel terrified. Moreover, after Little Spring Sky's artistic skills were completed, he didn't even have one life-and-death battle, and he fundamentally didn't know what murderous aura was, let alone being said to be hiding it.

  "A ruthless, powerful but inexperienced person!" This was the old man's evaluation of Xiao Liuxing, who had been startled by his killing aura and broken out in a cold sweat. The fact that an old man in such a situation could still have killing aura emanating from him showed that he was not a benevolent person, unable to hide his own killing aura. It was clear that he lacked experience, and the unintentionally revealed killing aura was already so strong. Without even exchanging blows, the old man could completely judge Xiao Liuxing's strength!

  It was obvious that the person who had saved his life by making himself vomit blood last time must have been him. However, the old man still couldn't understand why Xiaoliu would show him murderous intent.

  In his heart, he labeled the little meteor as dangerous, but the old man still didn't forget what he cared about most. Seeing that Little Meteor had already wiped away Little Spring's tears and retreated to sit in the chair in the middle of the house, he immediately stretched out his left hand.

  "Yes, it's recovered about half," Xiaochun Tian said, carefully examining the old man's hand that was stretched out to her. After being treated with the Great Supplement Pill, the old man's originally frail and broken body had improved a lot.

  "Really, can you unseal it for me now?" The old man asked excitedly after hearing Xia Chun Tian's words. "Alright, I'll first unseal half of your power, then you can adjust your body yourself, and when your body can fully withstand that energy, I'll completely unseal it for you." Xia Chun Tian said this to the old man after nodding at Xiao Liu Xing.
