Chapter 488 Woman in White?
After hearing Luo Yao's inquiry, the waiter in the shop quickly shook his head at Luo Yao.
"Young hero, please don't be impulsive."
"The Shadow Tower seems to be extremely powerful. Even the lord of Nanfang City, Tan Zhan, cannot offend them."
"You'd better not provoke them."
While the waiter at the shop was talking, he pointed at the few pedestrians outside the window.
"Just take a look and you will know that now almost everyone is afraid to go out casually."
"I'm afraid that if I'm not careful, I'll be targeted by the people from the Shadow Tower."
Luo Yao nodded.
He could see that there were indeed some problems in Nanfang City.
Moreover, there are still some big problems.
After having enough wine and food.
Luo Yao also left this restaurant.
He planned to take a stroll around Nanfang City to understand what the situation in Nanfang City was like.
If possible, he also wanted to know the reason for the sharp drop in tax revenue in Nanfang City.
After all, he came here under Luo Ping's order.
If the investigation yields no results, he will return.
I'm afraid he won't have a good life either.
When you return to the land of the Luo family in the future, you will probably be picked on by the old man Luo Ping.
In a remote alley in Nanfang City.
After Luo Yao entered it, he realized something was wrong.
There was no one in this alley, and the silence was eerie.
Moreover, he actually felt a vague aura, quietly locking on him.
"Haha, it seems that someone wants to do something to me."
Luo Yao said this, with a sneer on his lips.
It seems that coming here to investigate this time will not be that simple.
Even he himself felt a hint of danger.
However, this piqued his interest even more.
So, he continued walking towards the alley.
And about a few minutes later, he saw a figure coming out of the darkness.
This is a man dressed in black with a mask on his face, who looks particularly mysterious.
"Who are you?" The man in black looked at Luo Yao and asked first.
"Who am I and what do I have to do with you?" Luo Yao said with a rather casual expression.
"What does it have to do with me?" The man in black suddenly laughed, and then continued: "You are very good. There are still people in Nanfang City who dare to say such things to our Shadow Tower."
As he said this, he suddenly slapped Luo Yao with his palm.
The power of this palm was quite powerful, and there was an explosion in the air.
Obviously, the power of this palm is not weak.
"Be careful." At this moment, a woman's voice suddenly sounded.
Then, a beautiful figure suddenly appeared beside Luo Yao. She raised her hand and blocked the palm.
This is a woman wearing a white dress with a beautiful face.
"Who are you?"
The man in black looked at the woman in white and asked coldly.
"The person who killed you." The woman in white said, raising her jade hand again and slapping it with her palm.
This time, her target was the chest of the man in black.
"snort."
The man in black snorted coldly.
Then, he punched out directly and collided with the woman in white.
When their fists and palms met, both of them trembled slightly.
Obviously, the man in black and the woman in white are both very powerful beings.
"Are you from Shadow Tower?"
Luo Yao looked at the man in black and asked.
"Haha, that's right."
The man in black sneered.
"In that case, don't blame me for being rude."
Luo Yao said, and he took a step forward.
Then he punched out and collided with the man in black again.
"boom!"
When fists and palms meet
An explosion sounded in the empty alley.
The shock caused cracks to appear on the walls on both sides.
The man in black was also knocked back by the punch.
Obviously, the man in black was at a disadvantage.
"Your Excellency is quite capable, but if you want to leave my hands today, I'm afraid it's impossible."
The man in black looked at Luo Yao coldly, with murderous intent already in his eyes.
"Really?" Luo Yao raised his eyebrows. He looked at the man in black and said, "Do you know who the person behind me is?"
"The person behind you?" The man in black was stunned for a moment.
Then, he suddenly felt a dangerous aura, quietly locking on him.
"Be careful." At this time, a woman's voice sounded again.
Then, there were several blasts of wind.
The woman in white who had previously helped Luo Yao and several other strong men appeared in the alley in an instant.
Each of them has a strong level of cultivation.
"kill!"
The woman in white shouted coldly, and she took the lead.
Afterwards, those strong men also took action directly.
This small alley suddenly fell into a melee.
It only takes a few minutes.
Those few strong men from the Shadow Tower were killed.
After the woman in white got rid of a strong man from the Shadow Tower, she also came to Luo Yao's side.
"Are you okay?" She looked at Luo Yao and asked.
"It's okay." Luo Yao shook his head.
Then, with a calm expression and a slightly cold expression, he silently looked at the corpses of several strong men from the Shadow Tower.
Somewhat interesting.
Nanfang City, Shadow Tower.
It seems that during this period in Nanfang City, the weight of taxes and training resources handed over has dropped rapidly.
It has a lot to do with this so-called Shadow Tower.
Except for this matter, of course.
What made Luo Yao even more curious was.
What are the identities of the woman in white and the practitioners who follow the woman in white?
Are they the natives of Nanfang City?
Or are those people outside practitioners?
However, the young head of the Luo family in Qingshi City had not yet thought about the matter.
At the scene, another figure suddenly appeared.
"Your Excellency, how about letting this go for today?"
At this time, a voice suddenly sounded.
Then, a figure suddenly appeared in this small alley.
This is a man, about in his twenties.
He looked at Luo Yao, the woman in white and others, and there was no trace of fear on his face.
"Who are you?" Luo Yao looked at the man and asked.
"I am the deputy landlord of the Shadow Building in Nanfang City. My name is Lu Zhan." The man said this. He looked at Luo Yao and said, "How about letting go of today's matter?"
"Deputy landlord?" Luo Yao was stunned for a moment.
He looked at Lu Zhan and said, "You mean, you are the deputy owner of Shadow Tower?"
"Yes." Lu Zhan nodded.
"Since you are the deputy owner of Shadow Tower, who is the main owner of Shadow Tower?" Luo Yao continued to ask.
"I'm sorry I can't tell you the identity of the main building owner." Lu Zhan looked at Luo Yao, and there wasn't much expression on his face.
"Can't you tell me?" Luo Yao raised his eyebrows. He looked at Lu Zhan and said, "In other words, the main building owner of the Shadow Building must have some shady identity?"
"You just need to know that today's matter is over."
Lu Zhan said calmly.
Luo Yao's face showed a hint of sneer.
He knew very well that it might not be that simple to leave so easily today.
Moreover, if this matter is revealed so hastily, I am afraid there will be a lot of trouble in the future.
Rather than doing this, it would be better to uproot the Shadow Tower directly.
Only in this way can future troubles be avoided forever.
"Deputy landlord, you should know very well that what happened today is not easy to expose."
The woman in white looked at Lu Zhan, with a sneer on her face.
She waved her jade hand, and several powerful auras suddenly emerged.
These are clearly several powerful men with quite powerful levels of strength.
"kill!"
She waved her jade hand and took action directly.
When Lu Zhan saw this, a sneer appeared on his face.
As soon as he moved, he went directly to meet him.
This Nanfang City Shadow Tower is not a simple force.
Since, this Shadow Tower can and dares to control various economies in Nanfang City and develop its own power here.
So, that explains it.
The Shadow Tower located in Nanfang City also has a lot of support behind it.
"boom!"
When the fists and palms met, an explosion sounded in the alley.
Then, a figure flew out directly.
Obviously, with this blow, the practitioner next to the woman in white was directly at a disadvantage.
"Your Excellency is indeed not weak."
A cultivator next to the woman in white wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and a solemn look flashed in his eyes.
He seemed a little unexpected
The deputy owner of the Shadow Tower has reached such a level of cultivation and strength.
Although, this person's cultivation level has not yet reached the terrifying level of the Mortal Realm, the last great realm among the five mortal realms.
But this person's cultivation level is at least not weaker than that of the perfect blood refining state.
"You're good too."
Lu Zhan, the deputy owner of Shadow Tower, said while smiling.
He looked at a practitioner next to the woman in white and said, "You are also a strong person in the blood refining realm?"
"However, I'm just a newbie in blood refining, so my strength is not quite enough."
Hearing this, a practitioner next to the woman in white was stunned for a moment.
Then, with this look on his face, he saw Lu Zhan reveal a cruel smile.
The next moment, Lu Zhan's figure appeared beside the practitioner.
"not good!"
Seeing Lu Zhan move, the practitioner also reacted.
But his speed was still a step slower after all.
Then, a dull sound was heard in the alley.
The practitioner's head suddenly flew high into the sky.
And on his neck, a blood line appeared.
A good head fell to the ground.
"Gulu~"
Seeing this bloody scene, Luo Yao and several practitioners beside the woman in white couldn't help but swallow their saliva.
Obviously, they were also shocked by this bloody scene.
Lu Zhan, the deputy owner of Shadow Tower, was so ruthless in his attacks.
"Let's go first."
At this time, the woman in white suddenly looked at Luo Yao and said.
"Okay." Luo Yao nodded.
Although the shadow guard leader who was protecting him had the ability and strength to easily kill the guy who claimed to be the deputy owner of the Shadow Building.
However, compared with this situation.
Luo Yao seemed to be more willing to follow the woman in white and leave temporarily.
See what the woman in white would do later.
A few days passed.
Luo Yao was in an inn in Nanfang City. He sat by the window of the room and looked at the busy streets outside the window.
In the past few days, he has been waiting for the action of the Shadow Building.
However, what made him feel a little strange was that.
The deputy owner of the Shadow Building, Lu Zhan, did not seem to cause trouble for them.
At least, so far.
"No one came to teach me a lesson?"
Luo Yao said this, with a sneer in his eyes.
Lu Zhan, the deputy owner of the Shadow Building in Nanfang City, did not cause trouble for them, so he was naturally happy to be free.
However, he would still do what he should do.
"What are you thinking about?"
At this time, a voice suddenly sounded.
Luo Yao turned his head and saw the woman in white walking into the room.
"Nothing, just thinking about the Shadow Building." Luo Yao looked at the woman in white and smiled.
"I have investigated some things about the Shadow Building in Nanfang City." The woman in white looked at Luo Yao and said, "The Shadow Building controls the collection of taxes and cultivation resources in Nanfang City."
"Not only that, the Shadow Building also has a lot of industries in Nanfang City." She waved her jade hand, and several pictures suddenly appeared in the room.
Luo Yao looked at the pictures shown by the woman in white, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
He looked at the woman in white and said, "How did you get this information?"
"Of course, through some channels." The woman in white said this, she looked at Luo Yao and said, "The Shadow Building in Nanfang City has a lot of power in Nanfang City, and their news and intelligence must be well-informed and extremely accurate."
"This information is indeed very accurate." Luo Yao nodded.
He looked at the woman in white and said, "Why did you investigate the Shadow Building?"
"Nothing, just a matter of convenience." The woman in white said lightly.
"Convenient?" Luo Yao was stunned for a moment.
He looked at the woman in white and said, "Then how long do you think it will take to completely eliminate the power of the Shadow Building in Nanfang City?"
"At least three months." The woman in white thought for a while and said, "This is when I use some connections."
"Three months?" Luo Yao was stunned for a moment.
He looked at the woman in white and said, "Are you very powerful?"
"My cultivation is not very high, but the practitioners I can mobilize can at least compete with the Shadow Building."
The woman in white said this, she looked at Luo Yao, and then immediately said, "Compared to me, I find that the power behind you seems to be more mysterious."
"Have you investigated me?" Luo Yao raised his eyebrows.
"Just a matter of convenience." The woman in white said lightly. (End of this chapter)
