Chapter Fifty-Four Found It

  A whole day's rest allowed Huo Hai's mental strength to recover more than yesterday. After calculating, the number of people who can be interrogated should also have increased a lot. A day's reflection made Huo Hai very regretful of his behavior yesterday.

  "I don't need to investigate so many people, just investigating a few key figures would be enough." Huo Hai finally came to his senses, he had wasted too much time at the Ji's house yesterday. Because Xiao Die investigated too many people, it consumed all of Huo Hai's spiritual energy. If they only investigated the key figures, they could investigate several households in one night.

  Huo Hai used Xiao Die in this almost spy-like way for the first time, so it was normal that he wasn't prepared. Both of their spiritual powers were relatively insufficient, and they played to the point of forgetting themselves, resulting in excessive consumption of spiritual power.

  Of course, Huo Hai would never admit it, because he saw something he shouldn't have seen last night. It made his mind dazed and his thinking slowed down. So about these things, he actually forgot all at once.

  After nightfall, Huo Hai did not immediately start investigating, because in the dream, Xiaodie was more likely to succeed and consume less spiritual energy. A master who had reached the Linggu Bone Realm like Huo Hai would never go investigating.

  Once failed, lightly, the spirit will backlash, consuming a large amount of spiritual energy. In severe cases, it can even cause mental trauma, and for a long time, one cannot freely use their spiritual energy. If someone discovers Xiao Die's secret and becomes guarded, it won't be easy to secretly take action again. Huo Hai scattered a large number of star moths, beginning to investigate several families.

  Yesterday, I investigated the Ji family, today, let's start with the Lord's house. The Western Border Lord's family is the strongest family in the entire Western Border and is located in the center of the Western Border City. Apart from the Ji family, they are also the closest to the Huo family.

  As the night wore on, the commotion in the entire manor gradually subsided. When he was certain that most people had fallen asleep, Huo Hai carefully controlled Xiao Die to descend into the city lord's manor, his movements extremely gentle.

  This time, it's different from the last. We need to find an important target first. During the day, Hao Hai had already set his sights on one of the lord's sons. Like most families, the child who receives the most favor is usually either exceptionally talented or exceptionally spoiled. This guy was a typical spoiled brat and didn't have any cultivation.

  The butterfly entered the other's mind while they were asleep. The questioning in the mind was extremely fast. Soon, Hao Hai had asked everything he wanted to ask.

  "What a waste, only knows how to flirt with girls, nothing else. How did I end up asking such an idiot." Huo Hai shook his head and muttered to himself. This guy doesn't know anything, almost as good as a fool.

  The next target is the lord's confidant, but this confidant has no real power. Those who know the most about the lord's affairs are usually his sons and wives, as well as these confidants. Unfortunately, the lord's cultivation is too strong, so Ho Hai doesn't dare to let Xiao Die easily enter the lord's room. He can only choose this confidant, but such things are generally known by the confidant's subordinates.

  It's unknown how much time had passed, but his spiritual energy had been depleted once again. Huo Hai opened his eyes. "Looks like the Lord didn't make a move either. I really didn't expect that the Lord was still loyal to the imperial family, no wonder they were so willing to let him govern Xizang City."

  From his trusted subordinates, Huo Hai learned that the lord's family here was actually a royal family planted in this place. For the royal family, they were absolutely loyal. As students of the Imperial City Academy, Huo Hai and Huo Yun'er thought about getting the Dark Weapon Technique, but the lord would not order anyone to lay hands on these two people, and there was no other target.

  "The next one is the He family." | Huo Hai looked at the distribution map of Xijiang City and determined the next family. The He family was one that Huo Hai disliked the most, and also the biggest opposing family to the Huo family in the entire Xijiang region.

  As he passed by the Ji's house, Huo Hai suddenly felt a surge of heat in his heart. The small butterfly fluttered around him for several circles. Huo Hai furrowed his brow, considering whether to go back and take another look. Yesterday's scene was still vivid in his mind today.

  What is seen through the eyes of a small butterfly is just like what one sees with their own eyes, and even clearer than what one sees with their own eyes. This is much more wonderful than any movie on earth. Moreover, the quality of the beauties is good, purely natural, without any additives. Or it can be said that any female spiritual master who cultivates her spiritual power, as long as she doesn't have a really poor innate condition, looks pretty good.

  After a long time, Huo Hai shook his head hard and slapped himself twice: "Damn it, what am I thinking about. To avenge my sister, to avenge Yun'er's sister..." Huo Hai kept muttering to himself, guiding himself.

  Gradually, the fire in his heart dissipated, and Huo Hai's eyes returned to calmness. In the Refining Blood Realm, blood easily boils over, and one's mind is easily affected. It's not just killing that's affected, desires are also the same.

  Huò Hǎi might not have understood yet, but when it comes to serious matters, this guy's self-control is still relatively strong. Little Butterfly flew over the Ji family, surrounded by many star moths, and soon arrived outside the He family.

  As for the layout of the He family, Huo Hai was already very familiar with it. When he first sent Xiao Jin to steal the Refining Body Dan from the He family, he had already studied the He family inside and out. Now that he has come again, how could he not be familiar with it? Unlike last time, Huo Hai had dispatched a large number of Star Worms this time around. With an abundance of worms and increased strength, things wouldn't be as troublesome as they were last time.

  Let's focus on the main issue first. Regardless of how to deal with the He family later, we need to investigate and find out if they were the ones who laid hands on Yun'er. The two families have already been investigated. Apart from the three families, there are only two families left in Xijiang.

  Compared to that family with a weak sense of presence, Huo Hai believed it was someone from the He family who did it. To investigate, he would first take action against his most hated target. Soon, Huo Hai found the rooms of He Wang and He Ya.

  Choosing these two people is also for a reason. The two of them have the greatest hatred towards themselves, and at the same time, they are also the most concerned about themselves. If the He family really has any moves against themselves, these two should know something.

  He Yao's identity was the second young master of the He family, his status was higher than He Yao's, so he started with He Yao. At this time, He Yao had already fallen asleep with the beautiful woman in his arms. Ho Hai didn't even bother to look at that so-called beauty, a person who had been played with by others, he didn't even deign to look. It has to be said, this guy's views on women were quite different from ordinary people.

  The little butterfly was like a law-abiding pharmacist, it didn't have as many weird ideas as its master. It skillfully entered the overwhelming spiritual sea. Huo Hai disdainfully cursed: "What a waste, the mental defense is so weak, and even the mental strength is so weak."

  This guy, I don't know if he's taken some kind of medicine to reach the Spiritual Blood Realm. A person approaching thirty years old and his willpower is so weak. Compared to Ji Mu, who is also a young master from a wealthy family, they are like heaven and earth. Even the young master of the lord's manor has stronger willpower than this guy, it's imaginable how weak he is.

  Shook his head, and as before, communicated directly through the mind. Asked if he knew about Yun'er being captured. Then, Huo Hai's face began to change. Everyone in the big family knew that Yun'er had been caught, and spiritual instinct would not deceive. He not only knew, but also didn't seem surprised at all, as if it was a matter of course. The mentor had great resentment.

  It's normal for him to have a grudge against himself. But as he continued to investigate, Huo Hai felt that something was off. Because the spiritual message revealed by He Yao clearly told Huo Hai that this thing was done by him, and he was still the mastermind.

  After plotting this matter, the family also agreed to this plan. Later, the He family sent out many explosive spirit stones to complete it and kill Huo Hai and Huo Yun'er. Huo Hai's face turned more and more pale.

  "I really didn't expect that this thing was actually done by you. Damn it, Xiao Die, find out everyone who did this thing." The calmness in Huo Hai's heart had disappeared, replaced by intense anger.

  On that day, the anger had almost subsided, but at that time, he was dealing with someone who had directly laid hands on him. As long as the real mastermind did not die, Huo Hai would not let go for a single day. Xiao Die faithfully executed Huo Hai's orders, and whenever Huo Hai asked something, Xiao Die would use her spiritual power to directly enter He Yao's mind. Using a method akin to questioning, she would find the answers from within.

  "There are actually two masterminds, I really didn't expect it. Our Hao family, which is known for being united, would have such a traitor." Hao Hai's eyes were bloodshot. From the overwhelming thoughts in his mind, Hao Hai got a list.

  The second person on the list, the one that He Yi remembered most clearly, was actually Huo Yan. This young master of the Huo family was outstanding among his peers. How could Huo Hai have imagined that he had not offended Huo Yan in any way, yet Huo Yan was so dissatisfied with him and harbored such deep hatred towards him? Even He Yi could easily see this from Huo Yan's expression.

  Apart from those who directly participated, the rest of the He family had already been killed by Huo Hai. The only important figure left in the He family was He Ya. As for the Huo family, apart from Huo Yan, there were many others. Many younger members of the Huo family's side branches had also participated in this matter.

  These people, some of whom Hao Hai was familiar with, some not so much, and others he didn't recognize at all. But without a doubt, they were all from the Hao family. Enjoying everything provided by the Hao family, yet they dared to do such things. These guys wanted to rebel, wipe out the main lineage, and then establish their own independence. No matter what, these people had already crossed Hao Hai's bottom line.

  "I won't let them get away with it, humph, just wait and see, I won't let a single one of them off." Huo Hai's heart was filled with rage. Unbeknownst to him, his spiritual energy had once again been depleted, but this time, it wasn't in vain.
