Chapter 255: Changes in the Base

It was already night, and Xiao Zhen felt very satisfied as he looked at the mighty centipede puppet in front of him.

Under the moonlight, silver light was reflected on the centipede puppet's head, which was made of special materials.

Hot Wheels came over at this time and said proudly: "Xiao Zhen, how is it this time? Have you seen the productivity of our Time City?"

Xiao Zhen was quite satisfied. Now that a layer of iron was added to the centipede puppet's head, there was an additional means of attack, such as the iron head attack!

Xiao Zhen thought about it, then suddenly jumped up, jumped onto the head of the centipede puppet, and gently knocked on the iron head made of steel.

"Boom boom boom!"

"It looks like it's of good quality. Hey, Hot Wheels, what material is it made of?"

Hot Wheels took a few steps confidently, pointed at the big iron head, and said proudly:

"You've asked the right person. This metal is the latest super alloy steel. According to our preliminary experiments, without the strength of level 17 (low-level Dou Huang), it is impossible to leave too big a mark on it!"

Xiao Zhen smiled and immediately controlled the centipede puppet to fly into the sky. However, not long after it left the ground, its head sank slightly.

Xiao Zhen asked doubtfully: "This head seems a bit heavy!"

Hot Wheels explained: "Of course, super alloy steel is several times heavier than ordinary steel!"

Xiao Zhen sighed. Fortunately, he only installed a head. If this huge body was really replaced with super alloy steel, it would be difficult for him to even get up. If he wanted to fly, it would be a dream!

Xiao Zhen then met with the busy Lord of Thunderbolt Fire City, and the two of them had a good chat about the past. During the chat, Hot Wheels kept showing off his new equipment.

After returning to the Douqi Continent, Xiao Zhen felt tired after a long day and fell asleep directly on the bed.

The next morning, Xiao Zhen was awakened by the chirping of the colorful bird that Die raised.

"Ha... It's so noisy so early in the morning. If I had known, I wouldn't have bought this egg, or I would have fried it directly. Then I could have a good sleep today!"

Die touched the colorful bird on her shoulder and complained, "My little Cai is so cute, and you dare to do that to her. I have to keep a closer eye on her. Otherwise, one day when I go out, you might make her into a delicacy when I come back!"

Xiao Zhen smiled lightly and said jokingly, "Then you better keep an eye on it, because I happen to have a few thousand-year-old ginsengs in my inventory. If I add them to the bird monsters to make soup, it will taste the best!"

Die looked at the chubby little Cai in her arms, and it was as if she had seen a pot of fragrant bird stewed with old ginseng. Even she herself felt a little greedy.

Shaking her head hurriedly, Die said with a vigilant look: "As long as I'm alive, don't even think about touching my Xiao Cai!"

Xiao Zhen licked the corner of his mouth and explained, "Really? But in this yard, besides me, the guy with two heads outside is also very interested in the little fat bird in your arms!"

Of course Xiao Zhen knew who the guy with two heads was referring to, and he snorted coldly:

"He dares. If anything happens to Xiao Cai, I will throw you and him into the pot and stew them together!"

Xiao Zhen smiled and said, "Okay, I'll let you raise that little guy for a few more years. When it grows fatter, it won't be too late to stew it in the pot!"

After a morning of playing, Xiao Zhen came to the hidden courtyard of the Xiao family again.

Looking at Xiao Yan and Li Hua inside who were talking actively, it seemed that they had new inspiration.

"You have done a good job during this period. If it weren't for the strict inspection by those guys from Yunlan Sect, I'm afraid the book would have been sold to the neighboring empire!"

Xiao Yan and Li Hua both lowered their heads. After all, what they were doing was not glamorous. If they really made it public, they were afraid that others would look at them strangely when they saw them.

Xiao Zhen was just about to check the progress of the past few days when a panicked disciple of the Xiao family rushed in from outside the door.

"Report...Report to Master Xiao Zhen, we were attacked by the elders of the Yunlan Sect at a base outside the imperial capital, and we have lost contact!"

Xiao Zhen frowned, but understood after a moment. After all, the Yunlan Sect was also the largest force in the Empire.

If we can't even find out something like this, then we really don't need to continue to be here. We should just disband the sect and everyone should go back to their own homes and mothers!

A black-robed man hiding in the dark suddenly appeared, but he was not an enemy, but one of the powerful Dou Ling masters subdued by Xiao Zhen.

"Master Xiao Zhen, it seems that there is a problem outside. I wonder if I need to go there!"

Xiao Zhen shook his head and smiled faintly: "No need, I will go there myself today!"

After Xiao Zhen finished speaking, he disappeared in the yard. His speed was so fast that only an old man named Shadow Fighting Spirit King with a relatively high level of cultivation noticed any trace of him.

Xiao Yan looked at the disappearing figure of his second uncle with envy in his eyes. He was very powerful, had high cultivation, and was a fifth-rank advanced alchemist. He could even recruit Dou Ling masters as his subordinates. One has to know that if a person of this level was placed in the Xiao family, even if he was not an elder, he would definitely be a high-level figure.

Xiao Zhen's figure appeared in a dense jungle. He carefully glanced around and quietly released his soul power for reconnaissance.

On top of several dense trees around, there were several disciples of the Yunlan Sect lying in ambush. As for their cultivation, they were only great fighters, barely elite!

Xiao Zhen discovered a very hidden cave, where a group of men in black were tied up on the ground, and there was a large circle of people from the Yunlan Sect surrounding them.

This cave was originally a secret base of Xiao Zhen's men, but they didn't expect it to be hidden so deeply that it would be discovered by the Yunlan Sect.

When Xiao Zhen probed into his soul, he found a Dou Wang strongman inside. If he was not mistaken, it should be Yun Lan Sect's Grand Elder Yun Leng, plus there were two Dou Lings, one of whom seemed to be the elder named Yun Qi from last time.

Xiao Zhen's eyes rolled around. There were only two great fighting masters, twelve fighting masters, and more than thirty fighters in this stronghold. Although there were no members of the Xiao family, they were still people who had surrendered to his side. It would be a bit unreasonable to just leave them alone.

"Now is not the time to tear our faces apart with the Yunlan Sect. It seems we have to change our attitude!"

Xiao Zhen thought about it in his mind, and finally a handsome middle-aged man appeared.

"Hehehe, I'm sorry, buddy. Looks like I'll have to borrow your face today!"

Not long after, a middle-aged man in a white robe appeared on the path in the forest. This guy had a faint smile on his face, giving people a gentle and elegant temperament.

A Yunlan Sect disciple who was lying in ambush asked in confusion: "Isn't that Elder Gu He? How did he appear here?"

Gu He looked around and said calmly, "Come out, everyone! Under the spiritual power of a fifth-grade alchemist like me, there is no need for you to hide, because everything will be in vain!"

The several Yunlan Sect disciples hiding on the branches looked at each other, then appeared one after another. One of them with the highest cultivation level stepped forward and said respectfully:

"Disciple Zhang Yun, nice to meet you, Elder Gu He. I wonder why you are here today!"

"Gu He" put his hands behind his back and said seriously: "This elder came here at the request of Sect Master Yun Yun, and came to help you."

Several disciples nodded without any doubt, and did not dare to question Gu He.

"Okay! Take me to see some elders first. I have something to discuss with them!"
