Xiao Wei hesitated for a moment and said, "That's fine, but if you are forced to come here like this, and you are not sincere, it will always be a safety hazard."

Alchemist: "Trust me, I take my promises very seriously. I am famous for keeping my word."

Lei'er: "The mud ball just now?"

Alchemist: “…”

Lei'er thought for a moment and said, "How about this? There is a secret in my family's martial arts that is not passed down. Everyone should know that the human heart will generate a slight amount of electricity when it moves. I can plant a lightning mark in your body. If you have any second thoughts about us, your electrocardiogram will fluctuate abnormally, and I will be able to sense it. Then I will detonate your lightning mark and electrocute you into a pig's head."

The alchemist exclaimed upon hearing this: "Pighead~~I don't want to be a pighead."

Lei'er said tentatively: "Then let's turn it into a twist."

The alchemist exclaimed again after hearing this: "Then you'd better be a pig head. At least a pig head can eat feed, but fried dough sticks can only be eaten by humans. But at least your life is saved. Then you have to promise me that you will remove the mark for me in half a year."

So Lei'er began to set up the lightning mark, and a tiny electric current slowly drilled into the alchemist's chest.

The alchemist shuddered from the electric shock and cried out in pain: "Hmm~"

Lei'er: "Don't make such strange noises."

As he said this, he pushed hard, and the electric current instantly penetrated into the alchemist's chest.

Alchemist: "Oh, Coconut~"

While Lei'er was planting the mark on the alchemist, Xiao Wei and the others were not idle either.

Xiao Wei and the other man began to produce a large amount of water vapor, which rose into clouds. Soon, a small cloud of low pressure condensed in the sky.

The alchemists were all stunned, not knowing what kind of skill this was. Lei'er asked curiously, "It seems that the white fog today cannot conduct electricity. How did you two get electrocuted into pig heads in the fog that day?"

Xiao Wei smiled and explained to the illiterate Lei'er: "You have to understand the difference between water vapor and white mist. White mist is the many small water droplets that are invisible to the naked eye floating in the air after water evaporates. Therefore, it can conduct electricity and can also make you invisible. But the water vapor now is the pure gas that water decomposes into. It rises into clouds, and gas cannot conduct electricity."

"Oh, I see." Lei'er nodded as if she understood, and the alchemist also nodded, indicating that he also understood with his IQ.

The two of them had already completed the layout. Xiao Yan separated a large mass of molten fire and controlled it to float into the clouds, and then the four of them quickly left the scene.

Soon, the masters of the Galie family in the distance discovered the fire and rushed over.

After the Galie family arrived here, they did not find anything unusual, and no signs of a fight, except for the clouds above their heads, which were a bit too low. After investigating, they did not find any useful clues.

The man in the Confucian robe said, "The Xiao family is definitely the most suspicious, but there is no evidence right now. The second elder is dead, and the whereabouts of the alchemist are unknown. I think we should return to the family first, so as not to fall into the trap of luring the tiger away from the mountain."

The Third Elder: "Yes, what happened tonight is a bit strange. We need to think carefully about the looting of the Xiao family tomorrow. As the saying goes: A little caution can catch a thousand autumn cicadas, and a little caution can sail a thousand years. We need to handle this matter with caution."

Upon hearing this, the flattering elder quickly echoed, "What a good poem! Ah, isn't it? The Third Elder is really good at reciting poems."

At this moment, there was a rumbling sound in the sky. Everyone looked up and their faces changed drastically.

Xiao Wei and his three companions had already evacuated several miles away from here. After hearing the unusual noise, they stopped running.

"Lei'er, let's watch the fireworks."

Xiao Wei said with a grin.

I saw the clouds in the distance. They were not very conspicuous in the night before, but now there was a bright light coming from the clouds, and countless burning magma rushed straight to the land before.

"What an amazing move, how did you do that?"

"It's just that the magma hidden in the clouds exploded in the cold air current. It's nothing. We both have many tricks up our sleeves. Haha."

Xiao Wei looked like a smug villain, and waved his hand: "Go home and sleep."

Because of the commotion in the Jialie family just now, many people in Wutan City had gathered to watch. Xiao Wei and his four companions took advantage of the crowds to sneak into the Xiao family without disturbing anyone.

Lei'er went back to her room to sleep. The alchemist could not be trusted for the moment, so Xiao Wei and the alchemist both slept in Xiao Yan's room.

"You know our names, so why don't you introduce yourself?"

Upon hearing this, the alchemist stood up and sat straight. "Let me introduce myself more formally. My last name is Liu Mingxi. What does it mean? This name is not just for nothing. It has a meaning. My old grandfather of the Liu family thought about it for several days before coming up with this name. It has a great meaning. It means that my Liu family wants to occupy a place in the Alchemist Guild, so I named it Liu Xi."

After the alchemist finished speaking, he glanced proudly at Xiao Wei and the other two.

Xiao Wei and the other two could not help but applaud and said, "What a meaningful name. Your grandfather must have received higher education. Most people would not think of such a meaningful name."

"That's right, that's right, hahaha." Liu Xi was very happy to be recognized.

When Liu Xi was laughing happily, his laughter suddenly stopped and he looked towards the window in horror.

I saw that the window of Xiao Yan's bedroom had been opened at some point, and a figure was sitting there, listening to their conversation calmly.

Liu Xi exclaimed: "The masters of the Jialie family are here to seek revenge on you, run quickly."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan angrily kicked Liu Xi off the bed and cursed, "Idiot, you exposed today's secret as soon as you opened your mouth. Didn't I say you can't tell me?"

The figure sitting on the windowsill saw that everyone had noticed her, so she jumped down lightly. It was Xun'er. The moonlight came into the house, and Xun'er was bathed in the moonlight, like the moon goddess. Everyone was silent, not knowing how to start. The room was so quiet that even the sound of Liu Xi's drooling on the ground could be heard.

After a period of silence, Xun'er spoke first: "Does Brother Xiao Yan treat Xun'er as an outsider?"

Xiao Yan felt a little embarrassed when he heard this, scratched his head and said: "I just thought that we can just do this kind of rough work, I don't have any other intentions."

"Humph, it's rough work, so that's why Sister Leier from the country can go, but I, a lady from the city, can't go, right?"

Xun'er became more and more angry as she spoke. She punched Xiao Wei on the shoulder, causing him to spin in circles and become dazed.

"Why did you hit me?" Xiao Wei asked puzzledly, weren't you two arguing? How did I get caught in the crossfire?

Xun'er didn't even look at Xiao Wei: "I'm angry with Brother Xiao Yan."

"Then why are you hitting me?"

"I can't bear to hit Brother Xiao Yan, and you two have such a good relationship. If I hit you, it will hurt him, and it won't matter."

Xiao Yan felt even more embarrassed after hearing this, and said awkwardly:

"No, no, I just think that you might not like seeing us sneaking around and doing murder and robbery, and kidnapping alchemists..."
