Chapters 107 and 108 Enigmas!

  Logically speaking, for a big shot like Luo Xue Ning to come here, it's just a novelty for ordinary people like Xiao Hong, without any substantial significance. However, this familiar feeling makes Xiao Hong feel that there is something different.

  "In three days, the mayor will personally announce that the right to host Losanie belongs to one of the candidate families: Shaojiang, Hongbo, or Kelon." The announcer continued in a very serious tone.

  Xiao Hong's eyes, which had been gazing at him with a somewhat unusual expression, suddenly flashed with a hint of vigilance!

  He seemed to have thought of something in his heart, no wonder it was the masked man's previous words, to eliminate as many top masters of the three major forces of Tai Wu as possible, could it be related to the right to invite?

  Xiao Hong knew that at that time, although Luo Xue Ning had guards by her side, the main protective force was not only Mo Xuan, but also a master of a certain power with reception rights.

  "Could it be that the masked person's goal is here?" Xiao Hong muttered to himself, but after thinking about it for a moment, he couldn't help but smile wryly. This seemed to have nothing to do with him anymore, now that he had obtained what he wanted. The three major powers and Luo Xue Ning seemed to be of no concern to him whatsoever.

  What's the point of being so worked up over nothing? It's just a waste of energy.

  With this idea in mind, Xiao Hong instructed Li Le to prepare to open the door and receive guests.

  It can be said that with Xiao Hong's return, the business of Da Hong Mei's trip has started to boom again, especially the Tianqiao opposite, which has changed the geographical form of this area and increased the degree of human flow convergence.

  In his work, Xiao Hong's mind was thinking about the cultivation after reaching the Yu Zhe level. After such a long time of exploration, Xiao Hong could realize that once he reached the Yu Zhe level, even the second-generation Yu Xiang magic pattern and breath training method could no longer achieve the effect he expected.

  What's more important is that with 100 units of cavalry, you can upgrade one level and reach the Cavalry Master level at 500 units, and the Cavalry Grandmaster level at 1,000 units. It's clear how difficult it is to upgrade, so for now, we must find other training methods.

  The top priority is to find other methods that are better than qigong, and then improve them. But where can I find them? Moreover, improvement must require materials, which means a lot of money.

  The business of Da Hongmei's trip is going well now, but even so, Xiao Hong feels that the money seems to be not enough again.

  This question, Xiao Hong thought for a whole morning, until noon, just as Xiao Hong was about to take a nap after serving a female customer, the result was that Muxi'er came over with sunglasses and a duck tongue hat, looking like she had been traveling in the wind and dust. It's clear that this little spirit beast is something she has always dreamed of getting.

  After several encounters, it's clear that Mu Xi'er and Xiao Hong have basically passed the awkward phase. With no outsiders in the front hall, Mu Xi'er removed her sunglasses and walked to Xiao Hong's side, looking like a little girl, slightly embarrassed: "Um, where is the small spirit beast?"

  Xian Mu Xi'er's eyes were slightly shy, Xiao Hong couldn't help but take a few more glances, then smiled faintly and said softly: "Follow me."

  As Xiao Hong brought Mu Xi to the backyard, at this time, he saw a small wolf sitting alone on the stone table in the center of the yard, holding a small fruit in its arms, looking somewhat lonely, after all, everyone was busy and no one could take care of it.

  Seeing Xiao Hong appear in front of him, the little wolf cub holding the fruit quickly jumped down from the stone table and directly sprang onto Xiao Hong's shoulder, rubbing its small head against his face.

  "This is what I told you, little spirit beast. I picked it up in the Dark Merging Caves." Xiao Hong said to Mu Xi'er, stroking the small wolf's head before picking it up and placing it in Mu Xi'er's hands.

  Obviously, Xiao Qi Lang didn't have any bad feelings towards Mu Xi Er in front of him. He blinked his eyes and stared at Mu Xi Er, seemingly enjoying the warmth of her palm.

  "Wow, so cute." Looking at the chubby little wolf in her palm, Muxi'er sighed and then gently kissed the little wolf's face.

  The little wolf naturally sensed Mu Xi'er's friendliness and immediately stretched out his front paws, holding the small fruit that had already been bitten into in front of Mu Xi'er's mouth.

  It seems that the big star, Mu Xi'er, who was spoiled since childhood, didn't show any disgust at all. She randomly picked up a small fruit and put it in her mouth, chewed twice, and swallowed it into her stomach. Then she gently stroked Xiao Lang's head, obviously treating him with great patience and gentleness, just like a young mother.

  In just a few short minutes, Xiao Qi Lang had already become inseparable from Mu Xi Er, constantly rubbing his little head against her face and occasionally sticking out his small tongue to lick her ears.

  Li Le and Lin Zi noticed Xiao Qi Lang's actions and swallowed hard.

  "Now I'd rather be that little rascal." Li Le muttered to himself, his face full of admiration. He even saw Xiao Qi Lang's small paw resting on Muci'er's chest, and Muci'er didn't react at all, still enjoying it.

  "Huh?" However, at this moment, Muxi'er suddenly noticed the golden thread on Xiao Qi Lang's back and his pale pink hair.

  "Xiao Hong, this little wolf seems to be a bit special." Murong Xi'er fixed her gaze on Xiao Hong and asked softly, apparently she was not entirely ignorant about spiritual beasts.

  "It's a mutation." Xiao Hong responded very directly, with no major changes in his expression.

  When Mu Xi'er heard this, her expression changed drastically. She naturally knew what variation meant. Ordinary small spirit beasts were extremely hard to find, especially ones like the one in front of her that had an unusually strong life force and were particularly intelligent. They were truly rare to see. But what Mu Xi'er hadn't expected was that it was actually a variation, which for a Beast Tamer, was absolutely a treasured rarity.

  The value is at least 5,000 taels of gold as a bottom line, and it's priceless in the market.

  It can be said that Muxi didn't expect at all that Xiao Hong would give her such a precious thing, and for a moment she was a little hesitant, not wanting to accept it. She was reluctant to part with the cute little guy in front of her, but if she accepted it, how could she repay him?

  Xiao Hong's idea was simple, no mistake, at the beginning, he indeed considered the price of Xiao Qi Lang, but later, after getting familiar with it, Xiao Hong completely regarded it as a child, finding a suitable owner for it was the most important thing.

  "What? Scared?" Xiao Hong looked at Mu Xi'er and said softly, "Don't have any mental burden, as long as you can be good to Little Wolf, this favor will be considered repaid."

  Xiao Hong's words are very realistic. Similarly, Xiao Hong is also clear that if you give someone something and make them feel burdened in their heart, it will not be effective.

  "I will." Murong Xi nodded vigorously, putting aside the glamour of being a big star, she was just a lovely young girl after all. Her feelings for Xiao Hong had risen to another level.

  "Little guy, are you willing or unwilling to let her be your master?" Xiao Hong stood beside Mu Xi'er and asked the small wolf.

  The little wolf looked at Xiao Hong and then at Mu Xi'er, finally excitedly nodding his head.

  "Alright, come with me," Xiao Hong said, and then took Mu Xi to his bedroom. The room was a bit messy, but it was okay. The valuable things were all carried by Xiao Hong himself, and the ones that couldn't be seen by others were also locked in the drawer.

  Muxi'er sat down casually, and Xiao Hong rummaged through the storage box for a while before quickly finding several materials. He then swiftly mixed up a golden-colored magical liquid, after which he took out a needle knife from his dimensional pocket and placed it in front of Muxi'er.

  Muxi'er sat on the chair, looked at the tattoo liquid and then at the needle knife, naturally understanding what it meant. That is to say, on Xiao Qi Lang's forehead, a domestication pattern was to be tattooed.

  This tamed pattern has no effect or harm on the spiritual beast, but rather allows the master to use the taming magic pattern as a medium to make their riding ability resonate with the spiritual beast, achieving a mutual cultivation effect.

  However, the problem is that Muxi'er is not good at drawing tattoos. In other words, she doesn't know how to draw domesticated magic tattoos and is just a beginner in tattooing.

  "I... I'm not very good at making tamed magic patterns." Muxi'er said with some embarrassment, and once again stroked the fur of the small wolf in her hand.

  "This..." Xiao Hong leaned against the wall corner, apparently once he got to the magic pattern, Xiao Hong didn't have his initial tension anymore, but was thinking about how to solve the problem in his mind. As for drawing the tamed magic pattern, Xiao Hong could do it naturally, but this thing couldn't be replaced and must use the master's control power.

  "Hmm, how about this: I'll take care of the infusion of power, you hold my hand, and we'll draw the taming rune together?" Mu Xi'er suggested after a moment's thought.

  "Holding your hand? This... isn't quite right." Xiao Hong said tentatively, but in his heart he couldn't wait to do just that.

  "What's wrong with that, I don't mind, what do you care about as a big man?" Murong Xi'er glanced at Xiao Hong and said, apparently after such a long time of contact, Murong Xi'er had gradually begun to regard Xiao Hong as a good friend.

  "Since you say so, let's do it then." Xiao Hong didn't resist much either, speaking directly and to the point, with a mix of tension and anticipation in his heart.

  Without much hesitation, Xiao Hong stood behind Mu Xi'er and signaled her to pick up the needle knife. Then, Xiao Hong's slightly rough hands wrapped around Mu Xi'er's delicate small hands.

  Feeling the soft and delicate hand of Muxi'er, Xiao Hong felt a sudden numbness in his palm, his heart racing wildly, and his breathing slightly heavier. The fresh body scent of Muxi'er wafted into Xiao Hong's nostrils, giving him a lightheaded feeling, and even an inexplicable urge.

  Chapter 108 Decision However, facing the intense and unfamiliar feeling, Xiao Hong still tried his best to suppress it, then slowed down his voice as much as possible, instructing Mu Xi'er on how to proceed, how to mobilize the inner force, and transport it to the needle tip.

  Then, holding Mu Xi'er's hand, he took a bit of magic tattoo liquid and started tattooing on Xiao Qi Lang's forehead. Due to the presence of a small amount of anesthetic in the domesticated magic tattoo liquid, Xiao Qi Lang wouldn't feel any pain at all. On the contrary, seeing Mu Xi'er and Xiao Hong being intimate with each other, he even showed a joyful expression.

  This is also the second time that Muxi has felt Xiao Hong's body temperature, it can be said that Xiao Hong is not strong, but he can give Muxi a warm and safe feeling, very special.

  Because the domestication mark itself is a simple communicative mark, it is not complicated and only takes a few minutes. A golden pattern resembling a triangle appears on the forehead of the little wolf, but due to hair covering, the lines are not obvious.

  "It's almost done." Xiao Hong carefully and gently released his hand, with a hint of reluctance, and said softly. Then he stretched out his hand and lightly stroked the little wolf's head.

  "May... I try?" asked Muxi'er tentatively.

  "Of course." Xiao Hong responded.

  Without much hesitation, Muxi'er followed the method someone had taught him before and tried to tame the magic pattern. In an instant, Muxi'er suddenly had a strange feeling that his own driving force had merged with Xiao Qiulang's, and he could even feel the driving force pulsating in Xiao Qiulang's body. After all, it was mutated, and its vitality was strong, so although Xiao Qiulang was not yet fully grown, its driving force was remarkably pure and had excellent growth potential.

  "How amazing!" Mu Xi'er exclaimed, stopping the driving force of the magic pattern, looking at Xiao Hong with excitement. Without a doubt, this was all thanks to Xiao Hong. In Mu Xi'er's eyes, Xiao Hong seemed to have an omnipotent magical power.

  "As long as you like it." Xiao Hong said with a smile.

  Xiao Hong sat on the bed and started chatting with Mu Xi'er. Most of their conversation was about Xiao Qi Lang.

  "Hey, you say, can't always call it little guy, it should have a name, what do you think? Should be called what's good?" Murong Xi'er said with a loving gaze, looking at the small wolf in her arms, and she had completely relaxed.

  "Whatever, you can call it whatever you like." Xiao Hong responded.

  "Look at how fat it is, just like a ball. Let's just call it Ball Ball then." Murong Xi'er said after some thought.

  Like this, Xiao Hong and Mu Xi'er went back and forth, unknowingly chatting for over two hours. During this time, it was said that Han Chen extended an invitation to Xiao Hong to go to the Western Magic Academy. Mu Xi'er was so excited that she couldn't help but say that no matter what, she had to let Xiao Hong agree to come, and also said that in doing so, when she entered the Western Magic Academy, she wouldn't be lonely anymore, and they could take care of each other.

  Xiao Hong did not immediately agree, but just smiled, after all, he still needed to carefully consider this matter.

  Out of Xiao Hong's bedroom, put on the duck tongue hat and sunglasses again, holding the ball, ready to leave. He also knew that Xiao Hong still had work to do.

  Upon arriving at the front hall, Li Le and others had already begun their work. Seeing the small wolf in Mu Xi'er's hand, Li Le's mouth corners moved involuntarily, and he lowered his voice to say to Lin Zi beside him: "Isn't this true? Hong Ge is really willing to spend a lot of money to flirt with girls, sending out something worth several thousand gold coins just like that."

  "This is what they call legendary venture capital, get it? Once successful, wouldn't Xiao Qiulang and Muxi be completely under Hongge's control?" Linzi responded in a low voice: "Moreover, giving pets is the easiest way to move women and bind them together tightly. Just watch, Hongge has already succeeded 80%."

  Arriving at the gate of Da Hong Mei's trip, seeing that he was about to leave Xiao Hong, Little Qiu Lang Ball Ball quickly jumped down from Mu Xi Er's arms and reluctantly continued to rub against Xiao Hong's face.

  Mu Xi'er, who was standing beside him, also had some feelings. She knew that Xiao Hong had rescued Qiuqiu from the dark cave, and Qiuqiu naturally had an inseparable bond with Xiao Hong.

  "Ball, don't be sad, it's not a farewell forever. Don't worry, as long as we have time, we'll come to visit Ah Hong, okay?" Muxi'er said with an extremely gentle tone, just like a little mother.

  "Look, this is the key point. A small wolf cub will tie Mu Xi'er and Xiao Hong together tightly, and this little wolf cub is obviously Xiao Hong's eyes and ears. Today, after this commotion, I reckon the little wolf cub has already taken Xiao Hong as its father and Mu Xi'er as its mother. Will it still allow other male creatures to approach Mu Xi'er?" Lin Zi continued in a low voice.

  The ball on Xiao Hong's shoulder, hearing Mu Xi'er say so, fell off Xiao Hong's shoulder and returned to Mu Xi'er's arms, then was carefully taken into the car by Mu Xi'er.

  As Mu Xi'er's blue sports car drove further and further away, Xiao Hong's heart felt a little sour. On one hand, he was reluctant to part with Mu Xi'er, and on the other hand, he didn't want to let go of Qiu Qiu either. However, thinking about how Xiao Qi would have a good life with Mu Xi'er and become a strong spiritual beast, Xiao Hong's heart felt slightly comforted. After all, it was better than following him around.

  He walked back to the front hall, cleared his mind of distractions, and began a focused work, no longer thinking about miscellaneous things.

  As for the Western Jinwen Academy, Xiao Hong also decided to go, although it would affect his work a little, but it was a rare learning opportunity. After all, in the academy, there were many teachers who could ask questions, and he didn't have to rely on Sang Hongyun alone.

  After finishing a day's work and returning to his bedroom, Xiao Hong conveyed his thoughts to Han Chen through the communication tattoo.

  Han Chen was naturally very happy about Xiao Hong's decision, and immediately made a decision. Xiao Hong would come to report with the new students one week later, and half a month later, after the summer vacation ended, Xiao Hong could enroll in school.

  After breaking through the demonic pattern, Xiao Hong began to focus his mind and use the transformation magic pattern to transform his driving force and increase his driving power.

  According to Xiao Hong's current diligence and the replenishment of the dark green magic pattern bead, it will probably take about ten days for him to become a Rider-level figure.

  At the same time, in a small and exquisite villa, Muxi had just carefully bathed Ballball and was playing with him in the living room.

  It can be said that although Muxi'er is a famous person with a high price, she doesn't have many friends. Having Qiuqiu by her side has alleviated her loneliness to some extent. Qiuqiu itself seems to like this new owner very much and is completely happy about it.

  However, at this moment, the communication device on the tea table suddenly rang, and the caller was Meijer's assistant, who was the one Xiao Hong had passed by last time.

  Seeing the number on the communication talisman, Muxi'er's expression became slightly serious, and she held Xiao Qiulang in her arms before randomly answering the call.

  "What's wrong?" asked Mu Xi'er.

  "Miss Mu, you previously mentioned that you wanted a top-grade cultivation method for taming power. After Mr. Mai's efforts, it has been obtained from Mai Long. It is said to be extremely precious." The assistant responded with a somewhat respectful tone.

  "Make two copies of the Gong Fa and bring them over tomorrow." Mu Xi'er instructed.

  "Copy? Miss Mu, what's going on..." The assistant was somewhat perplexed.

  "Don't ask so much, since it's given to me, it's mine now, I have the right to decide." After Mu Xi'er finished speaking, she cut off the connection and then gently stroked Ballball's head with a loving expression, as if she had something on her mind. The carefree and worry-free feeling from before seemed to fade away slightly.

  At the same time, in the Shang Hong textile factory, although it was already late at night, Fang Hongyun had not rested. Sitting opposite him were Chen Shaojiang and several core members of the Shaojiang Group.

  And now they are discussing the topic of Luo Xue Ning's arrival, according to the rules or traditions of Tai Wu City, one of the three top forces must be selected to receive him throughout the process, including security.

  Of course, there are also many benefits to be gained from reception, such as exercising privileges, and it is also possible to obtain a large amount of supplies from the Kingdom of Siam, including military materials and technology.

  So on other planets, similar visits, those so-called tycoons will go out of their way to receive military personnel.

  The main purpose of this meeting is to compete for the qualification to receive Losening. First, a corresponding application report must be provided to explain the reception process, and then the corresponding hardware facilities and so on.

  "In my opinion, it's better to vacate the Lijing Garden, where there is enough space and it's still our territory. If necessary, we can also seal off a large area nearby to ensure safety." Zhang Xinlei suggested.

  "As for the journey, I hope Master Sang Hongyun can escort us all the way." Zhao Qing continued.

  Sang Hongyun sat in the main seat, from start to finish, without saying a word, as if he was thinking, and also as if he was weighing, just listening to the opinions of these people.

  "There's no need to discuss it further. The Shaojiang Group has decided to abandon the plan to receive Luo Xue Ning." After a long while, Sang Hongyun spoke up.

  The crowd that heard this was shocked and couldn't help but move, they never thought that after discussing for half a day, Sang Hongyun would actually make such a decision.

  "Why? Master." Zhang Xinlei was perplexed.

  "I'm thinking of your safety, the Shaojiang Group is not wrong, it's the best in Taowu City, but if measured by the standards of the entire Futa Empire, it can only be said that it's a small arm and leg, can't withstand the toss." San Hongyun stood up slightly and said, actually, the direct reason that prompted San Hongyun to make this decision was that the Temple Army, which was responsible for reinforcements, could not arrive in time.

  The masked man who had been plotting against Luo Xue Ning had already infiltrated Tai Wu City. Previously, Sang Hong Yun had received news that during the previous collision with Mo Xuan, there was a Yu Shi level figure involved, and this might only be the tip of the iceberg.

  What does Luo Xue Ning want to do here? There is no clear explanation. Is it a friendly visit? It can be basically confirmed that it's just an excuse.
