If you are lucky enough to be reborn, develop first and then take revenge.

The news that the Cao family was attacked quickly spread throughout Wenshan City, and the city lord's palace also sent people to step up patrols in a symbolic manner. The city lord who used to wear the same pants as the Cao family has been in seclusion since the Cao family's trouble. Now that the Cao family was dead and injured, the city lord finally appeared.

He did not go to the Cao family to ask for help, but instead purchased the Cao family's Yaowang Tower.

Only his former competitor, Li Yong, still carried a medicine box to Cao's house every day to diagnose and treat Cao Yuanquan and Cao Xueqian. A friend in need is a friend indeed. Many female relatives and servants fled.

Shui Yuehua felt that Xiao Muyu was not strict enough about leaving alive. She would rather kill the snake than kill him and wait for revenge. Xiao Muyu believes that living may be a higher punishment.

As if to verify Xiao Muyu's point of view, seven days later, Li Yong judged that their joint bones were broken and they would never be able to stand up in this life. A month after the incident, Cao Yuanquan was assassinated without leaving any evidence.

Another three months passed. Rumor has it that Cao Xueqian starved to death in bed. She had bedsores on her body and no one took care of her. When someone discovered it, it was because the person smelled a bad smell. At this point, no one in the direct lineage of the Cao family is alive.

The city lord's mansion acted quickly and occupied the Cao family's mansion. The property of the Cao family was also robbed, and the remaining female relatives did not dare to fight for it. The Cao family doesn't have many other properties besides elixirs, and these female relatives don't want to guard it for the Cao family. They will go back to their parents' homes if they can afford it. Even those who had no conditions would take some things from Cao Mansion and go to relatives.

Without the backbone, the entire Cao Mansion was destroyed very quickly. Shui Yuehua has been guessing who assassinated Cao Yuanquan, and this has become an unsolved case.

The City Lord's Mansion gathered more than [-] alchemists and reopened the Yaowang Tower. Business is still booming, and people don’t care whether the boss changes or not.

Shui Yuehua followed closely and opened a pharmacy, but it was smaller in scale, not as comprehensive as Yaowang Tower, but with specialty medicines. It was very popular for a while, and although it didn't make a fortune every day, it was still a very profitable business.

But it also requires a supply of medicinal materials. The shop is small and the consumption is also small. Shui Yuehua's original intention was to attack the Cao family, but he didn't expect Xiao Muyu to strike so quickly, and his business war ended before it even started. So she didn't plan to continue working for a long time.

This was a bitter experience for the alchemist who turned around and defected. Hearing that the pharmacy would only be open for one year, they discovered that although the agreement was good, they had not paid attention to the date. Xiao Muyu thought it would be fine to keep it, so she discussed with Shui Yuehua to train a big shopkeeper and let him manage it on his behalf. To this end, Xiao Muyu contributed a lot of low-level medicinal materials. Shui Yuehua will do the training for the big shopkeeper. If you can't train one in a short time, you can hire one. Li Boyan suggested it when he heard that Shui Yuehua was going to open a store, and he also had the connections to do this.

These days, Xiao Muyu has selected five people from three mercenary groups. These five people are all good at intelligence. He can hide himself while inquiring about information. He personally interviews such people and asks them if they are willing to follow him. Xiao Muyu offered a high salary and promised to provide training resources.

Not surprisingly, these five people are willing to change jobs. Everyone is willing to do a job that pays well. They are also mentally prepared to encounter high risks.

In the past few months, Xiao Muyu's Burning Immortal Technique has also cultivated three meridians. The progress of his skills has accelerated his cultivation speed, and he is now one step away from the middle stage of pill formation.

Xiao Muyu also purchased a lot of supplies while practicing. He was so mysterious that Shui Yuehua guessed that he was going to cause trouble again.

After staying in Wenshan City for almost six months, Xiao Muyu felt that he was almost ready, so he told Shui Yuehua that he was leaving and his destination was Shuonan City. There are four acropolises on all sides of Shuofang City, and Shuonan City is one of them. I heard that Shuofang City is owned by the Cao family and there are no outsiders in the city. Only those who have received invitations will go. Xiao Muyu went to see the power situation of the Cao family before, and was unwilling to fall out now. He went to Shuonan City just to inquire about information.

Shui Yuehua still had something to do, so she didn't go with Xiao Muyu. After the two separated, Xiao Muyu left with five mercenaries.

Although Wenshan City is somewhat far away from Shuonan City, fortunately, there are basically towns with people on the road. This time Xiao Muyu used the flying magic weapon and led the five people on the road. He only stopped to purchase some supplies when passing through the town. His flying magic weapon was obtained from Yuling Sect.

Among the five mercenaries around him, three are in the early stage of foundation building and two are in the late stage of Qi refining. They have good investigative talents and are suitable for detecting information.

The group of people walked and walked and came to a small town called Nanting. The group of people found an inn to rest, and their external identity was that of a businessman. Xiao Muyu once again told these people that their task was to obtain information. The more detailed information about important people, the better. Xiao Muyu did not specify whom they should collect, but let them collect freely. In this way, they will pay special attention to the news rather than a certain person. Even if someone finds out, they will think that this person is gossip.

Xiao Muyu found many shops in Nanting Town to do transactions. After buying a lot of things, I bought a carriage and loaded the goods. After leaving Nanting Town, further north is Shuonan City.

Six men riding six horses escorted a cart of supplies. Although Shuonan City is the acropolis of Shuofang City, it is also very tall. From a distance, the brown city wall is as tall as five or six people. The mottled marks on the city wall tell the history of the city.

After paying money to enter the city, I realized how prosperous this place is. The two rows of shops are densely packed, and the crowds are shoulder to shoulder. The group of people found an inn to settle down first, and then Xiao Muyu asked them to go out and find a dental shop. He wanted to buy a shop. Ask to be close to the water and have good views.

Several people also lived up to Xiao Muyu's expectations. When they came back, they all brought some store location information and prices to Xiao Muyu.

Xiao Muyu then chose a store in the east of the city, which was found by Wang Jie. Xiao Muyu took Wang Jie to find the corresponding dental store and went to the store location for an on-site inspection.

This shop is backed by a big river and has three floors. The location is not too remote, and the riverside is less noisy. There are also boats and boats occasionally passing by in the river, and the scenery upstairs is even better.

Xiao Muyu immediately decided to buy this house. This house cost Xiao Muyu six million low-grade spiritual stones. Although it was very painful, Xiao Muyu bought it in full. After getting the title deed, have it cleaned up.

It's quiet and elegant here, and Xiao Muyu plans to open a teahouse. In his hand, he has many kinds of spiritual teas of level three and above. I also bought a lot of first- and second-order spiritual teas on the way here.

The loft is very spacious. The hall on the first floor can be used for tea, and there is a kitchen and a building next to it. Several mercenaries live on the first floor. The second floor is all private rooms for people to chat privately.

The third floor is similar to the first floor. It is also a large living room with a better view. Tables and chairs are placed along the river, and landscapes and rocks are placed on the other side. There are also three rooms next to it, but they are not open to the public. That is where Xiao Muyu lives.
