"This..." The young white-robed soul master felt a little ridiculous, and Luo Shang behind him stretched out his hand to signal him to step back.

"Go and report to your family head and tell him that Director Ouyang Quan is here." Although Luo Shang's actions were respectful, there was a hint of threat in his words.

"Well, wait here." The soul master with golden patterns and white clothes nodded and went to report.

"This Xie family in Licheng is really covering the sky with one hand. I'm afraid that in a few years they won't take our White Wolf official seriously." Luo Shang retreated to the back and sighed softly.

"Before the establishment of Li City, this land was the territory of the three major families. At the beginning of the city's founding, the family power headed by the Xie family played an indelible and huge role."

Ouyang Quanlai once listened to a senior's words, and now he also passes on the senior's words to his successor.

"It can be said that the development of Licheng cannot be separated from the help of family power. But now, they have great hands and eyes, and they have already monopolized too many industries in Licheng."

"It has also gradually become a moth that hinders the development of Licheng."

Ouyang Quanquan is the director, and he legally has a search warrant but cannot enter or leave the Xie family's castle at will. At this moment, he seemed to suddenly understand something.

Thoughts fleetingly passed, Xie Liang, the former head of the Xie family, arrived.

"Oh, look at my old bones, I can't fly anymore." Xie Liang walked slowly and leisurely on crutches. The smile on his face squeezed all the wrinkles into a single line.

Xie Liang, he has been in the state of war for a long time, and now it is too late. The coercion released now is no different from Ouyang at the peak of mediocrity.

The people under my command don't understand the rules. Director Ouyang please come in quickly. "Don't hit the smiling person. Even if Luo Shang and the others have a big temper, they can't let it go when they see the smile on the face of the old man Xie Liang.

"It's really helpful to trouble you to receive the reception in person." Ouyang Quan also put on a respectful look. and Xie Liang began to be polite to each other.

Shengxianbao-teahouse.

Ouyang Quan, Luo Shang and Xie Liang were sitting on both sides of the nanmu tea table. There were fine tea and tea pet tea sets on the table. The decoration of the entire teahouse looked very luxurious and elegant.

The other white-robed soul masters stood silently outside the teahouse.

"It's something important, and we need Director Ouyang to come. If our Xie family can cooperate, just ask."

Although Xie Liang looks very old, he still knows the routines of officialdom very well.

Although the Xie family's influence spread throughout Li city, they still acted like a servant in front of Ouyang Quan.

"Hey, don't say that. Mr. Xie is so respected that this junior can't bear it."

Ouyang Quan first said a simple polite word, and then expressed his intention: "I don't know, Mr. Xie, but do you know that a batch of purple twilight crystals were mixed into the city some time ago?"

"Purple twilight crystal stone?" Xie Liang took a sip of tea and seemed unaware: "The director said, but the batch of White Wolf officials that was kidnapped in the wild some time ago?"

Some time ago, the incident of ore being robbed from White Wolf Officials caused quite a stir, and it was considered breaking news throughout the whole state.

"Exactly. According to the news from above, the batch of purple twilight crystals has flowed into Li City."

As Ouyang Quan spoke, he observed Xie Liang's cloudy eyes, trying to find clues in them.

"Licheng is really close to the crime scene. It's possible." Xie Liang paused and said something that seemed like nonsense but was very reasonable.

Ouyang Quan and Luo Shang next to him stared closely into each other's eyes, but gained nothing.

The two looked at each other, and their eye contact seemed to say: He didn't look like he was lying.

"The Xie family has great hands and eyes. Don't they have any gossip?" Ouyang Quan then asked, although it would be a bit disrespectful to ask this.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, don't listen to what they say." Xie Liang waved his hands quickly and shook his head.

"The Xie family will always be the Xie family outside the city. All survival needs are inseparable from the government, so how could they do anything detrimental to the government." Xie Liang is indeed a veteran, still joking with a smile.

Ouyang Quan rolled his eyes and then asked: "Mr. Xie, can I ask about something private?"

"Tell me everything I know, and tell me everything I know." Mr. Xie then poured the best tea.

"As far as I know, Xie Kang, the current head of your Xie family, has not been back for a long time."

Xie Liang was pouring tea. He was obviously startled when he heard Xie Kang's name. The cup was accidentally filled with tea and leaked out of the cup.

And this faint detail was also captured by Ouyang Quan.

"According to our investigation, the time when Xie Kang was away from the city happened to be the time when the Purple Dusk Crystal was stolen." Ouyang Quan seized the opportunity and pursued the victory.

"Director Ouyang's suspicion is very reasonable, but Xie Kang's matter is a private matter of our Xie family and cannot be disclosed." Xie Liang drank the tea in one gulp and spoke slowly. Then I closed my eyes and wondered what I was thinking.

Ouyang Quanneng clearly felt that he was one step closer to the truth. But now Xie Liang is obviously unwilling to reveal the truth. He does not have any evidence, so he naturally has no right to ask questions.

"Okay." Ouyang Quan also drank the tea. It was slightly bitter in the mouth and sweet in the aftertaste. Although the tea has cooled down, its astringency has not diminished by half.

"Farewell." Ouyang Quan saluted briefly and left with Luo Shang and his men.

"No delivery."

After Ouyang Quan and others left completely, Xie Liang, who was sitting alone on the tea table, slowly opened his moist eyes.
