What Li Tongxi said was right, Xiu Er and the rest were just two people with Miao Boundary, and this time they might not be the entire meaning of Miao Boundary.
Just them alone were already able to cause such a huge commotion, and had even almost forced Shi Lei to sacrifice his own life. If in the future, his Miao Boundary would truly be completely suppressed, to the point of wanting to ruthlessly attack Chinese medicine.
At that time, the traditional Chinese medicine in the Central Plains would definitely not be able to withstand this kind of pressure.
Previously, Shi Lei thought that he created this Chinese Medical Association just to integrate the strength of the entire nation's traditional Chinese medicine and create better medicines to gain more benefits. But now, it seemed that it was extremely necessary.
This was not just a matter of money, but also a matter of survival.
”Do you still not know who the person who told you to come here is?”
”I don't know.”
Li Tongxi shook her head and said, ”Ever since we met that time, I've never seen him again.”
Looking at Li Tongxi's indifferent eyes, Shi Lei knew that she wasn't speaking the truth. Even if he did have a special identity, with Li Tongxi's personality, he could just say a few words and he was already alone. No one said anything about coming to the Jiangling to carry out a mission.
Shi Lei would never believe such a reason.
However, he still chose to trust Li Tongxi. If she didn't say anything, Shi Lei wouldn't pursue the matter further.
Shi Lei let out a long sigh, then said: ”Let's go, we'll sneak in and see if Xiu Er and the others are still there.”
The Gu Worm had already been completely destroyed, and even if there were only one or two remaining, it was nothing surprising for the entire Jiangling.
But this time, Shi Lei wanted to capture Xiu Er and the others with his own hands.
The commotion in the vicinity of the villa earlier had attracted a lot of people, thinking about it, the actions of over a hundred people chasing after Shi Lei was huge, it would be weird if no one was around.
When Shi Lei returned, the villa was already devoid of anything. All the traces of Xiu Er and the others existence had already disappeared.
”Where did he go?”
Shi Lei was a little disappointed.
Li Tongxi said very calmly: ”They might have already left. This time, they have been waiting for a long time for a plan, but they don't have any plans. The Miao Boundary people definitely won't let them stay outside for too long.
Shi Lei was actually a little regretful. If he had been just a little bit earlier, he might have been able to find Xiu Er and the others who were hiding behind the scenes.
After searching around the entire villa, only then did Shi Lei see the already dead Xu Tai lying in the corner of the backyard.
Because he was killed by the Gu Worm, not a single piece of Xu Tai's skin was intact, and all of it was corroded beyond recognition.
Li Tongxi could not help but frown, but she did not say anything, and only looked at Shi Lei and said: ”How do we deal with this?”
This was a person that he had saved before, although he did not listen to his advice, and was somehow taken away by Xiu Er and the others, but he had already left this world, and Shi Lei did not want him to stay either, so he shook his head and said: ”Let's just help him cremate his body, and settle it in the ground.”
The cause of death of Xu Tai was rather special, and Shi Lei did not know how to send it over openly. He could only ask Lin Qiumo to find someone from the Jiangling to deal with it.
