"Sir, if you don't have an invitation, you can't attend this banquet." The Huo family's bodyguard said in a cold tone.
Xing Kuian looked around anxiously on his body.
"I remember the invitation was clearly on my body! How could it be missing?"
At this time, Xiao He strode forward, raised the corner of his mouth, and said to the bodyguards in the same tone that Xing Kui'an used to mock him: "I heard that Mr. Huo's banquet is the highest in Jincheng. You can't let some people with evil intentions in.
!”
Of course, the bodyguards could tell that Xiao He's words were directed at Xing Kui'an, so he winked at his companions, and several bodyguards moved to surround Xing Kui'an.
Xing Kui'an's face turned green with anger. He didn't expect that he would be ridiculed by a pretty boy. He immediately retorted: "Boy, why are you so arrogant? If you have the ability, come up with the invitation!"
"My invitation can't be found for the time being. Unlike some people, the invitation has long since turned into ashes."
"Why are you staring at me! My invitation will be found soon. What you should do is drive this kid out."
Xing Kui'an firmly believed that at most he could not find the invitation for a while, but he was certain that Xiao He would never be able to produce the invitation.
Hearing this, the bodyguard also glanced at Xiao He, "Sir, please show me your invitation."
Cheng Qinglan pursed her lips and glanced at Xiao He resentfully. She had no idea what Xiao He was doing, was she asking for trouble?
Xing Kui'an stared at Xiao He with gloating, "Boy, it's time to wake up! Realize that the clown is yourself! You said that you, a pretty boy, are shouting at me, you don't know how high the sky is."
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Xiao He's mouth: "Haha, open your dog eyes and see, what is this?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao He took out an invitation as if by magic.
On the cover of the invitation, Cheng Qinglan's name was written clearly and completely.
Xing Kui'an was stunned, his eyes bulged like toads, and he shouted at the top of his lungs: "No, it's impossible, I've obviously burned this invitation!"
Cheng Qinglan was also in disbelief. She grabbed the invitation and looked at it repeatedly, but no matter how she looked, she could not find any trace of being burned.
What's going on? Did you just see a ghost?
Of course, it wasn't Cheng Qinglan and the others who had seen ghosts, but Xiao He had just taken advantage of the confrontation between Xing Kui'an and Cheng Qinglan to order Qinglang to steal the invitation from Xing Kui'an without anyone noticing, and then used a trick to hide the two of them.
The invitations have been exchanged.
He is a real cultivator, so he can easily deceive Xing Kui'an and others.
"Go look over there, idiot!"
Xiao He stretched out his hand and pointed at the invitation that was burned to pieces by Xing Kui'an, with a playful look in his eyes.
Xing Kui'an seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly picked up the small half of the invitation. At first glance, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his eyes widened and he was speechless for a long time.
On the invitation, half of the character "Xing" could be vaguely discerned.
Xing Kui'an is in mourning. Did he really make a mistake and burn his invitation by mistake?
Although Cheng Qinglan didn't know how Xiao He did all this, she was very relieved at this time.
Xing Kui'an could be said to have lost the rice by stealing the chicken.
After submitting the invitation, Cheng Qinglan and Xiao He were able to enter the Huo family villa, while Xing Kui'an was driven a hundred meters away from the villa by the bodyguards.
At this time, the female companion next to Xing Kui'an couldn't bear it anymore, and she had long been filled with anger.
She is Xing Kui'an's female companion, but Xing Kui'an has been focusing on Cheng Qinglan ever since he met Cheng Qinglan. As a woman, she also wants to save face, and what's even more outrageous is that Xing Kui'an did not hesitate to use all kinds of dirty tricks in order to partner with Cheng Qinglan.
means.
She endured it again and again for the mission, but now she couldn't bear it anymore. The female companion threw away Xing Kui'an's arm and said, "Team Xing, I will report the incident of this mission, so you can take care of yourself!"
The female companion left angrily.
Xing Kuian was dumbfounded and opened his mouth, but nothing came out.
He never thought that he would be ruined by a pretty boy. Not only could he not get through the door of the banquet, but his female companion would also abandon him. The worst thing is that the female companion might take his own life away.
Report everything you do.
It's over, not only will he be punished this time, he will also become a laughing stock in everyone's eyes.
It took a long time to figure out the mechanism, but in the end it was a piece of cake.
Xing Kui'an violently punched an old tree, "Damn pretty boy, I will cut you into pieces when you come out."
He blamed all of this on Xiao He, and it would be difficult to relieve the hatred in his heart without giving Xiao He a good beating.
After Xiao He and the others entered the villa, Cheng Qinglan asked impatiently: "Xiao He, how did you do that just now?"
She was confident that what she saw Xing Kui'an burning just now was her invitation! How did it become Xing Kui'an's, and how did Xiao He get the invitation from Xing Kui'an?
Xiao He grinned and said, "I am actually a real cultivator."
A true cultivator? Although Cheng Qinglan is also a member of the martial arts community, she despises the gods and ghosts of Taoist priests in her heart.
"Forget it if you don't tell me. Stop fooling me. You are a cultivator. I think you have read too many novels! What age is it now? You still believe in these unscientific things."
Cheng Qinglan said angrily.
Xiao He also knew that Taoism was difficult to explain, but in order to maintain the authority of his elders, he decided to show some real skills.
I saw Xiao He snap his fingers, and with a sound of "Hoo!", a flame appeared on the index and middle fingers of his right hand.
"Is this scientific?"
Xiao He seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
"Ah!" Cheng Qinglan covered her mouth in surprise and couldn't recover for a long time. Xiao He's actions completely subverted Cheng Qinglan's world view.
"Okay, let's get down to business first! I don't have time to spend with you."
Seeing Cheng Qinglan's eyes looking like a ghost, Xiao He was satisfied and turned away his magical powers.
Cheng Qinglan also knew that now was not the time to explore this. She regained her composure and returned to her former self. She took Xiao He's hand and began to search for suspicious people in the villa.
At this time, dozens of big shots from Jincheng's upper class had gathered in the living room of the nearly 1,000-square-meter villa. Cheng Qinglan quickly set her sights on a middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses who was chatting and laughing.
That person is the key target of this mission, Huo Qigong. She believes that as long as she keeps an eye on Huo Qigong, she will be able to wait until the Five Poison Sect members show up.
The two of them stood not far from Huo Qigong, and Xiao He's consciousness quickly scanned over everyone's bodies. His consciousness was naturally much more detailed than Cheng Qinglan's observation. He could still identify someone even if they were disguised, but
Still didn't notice the aura of the black shadow just now.
"Niece, this can't work! The two of us standing here are very conspicuous! You see, others are chatting together in small groups." Xiao He picked up a glass of red wine, took a sip and said.
Indeed, the two of them looked very out of place like this, and one could almost tell at a glance that they were different from the people around them.
Cheng Qinglan also noticed this. Just as the two were about to find a place to chat for a while, a scream suddenly came from the second floor of the villa.
