Doupo: Life Simulator System

Chapter 20: Burning Down the Inn

Now that he had made his choice among the three options, Xiao Ming did not delay, and his soul power burst forth from his eyebrows, putting it in front of his body in preparation.

In his mind, he silently said, "Choose 600,000 gold coins."

Suddenly, a mountain of gold coins appeared in front of Xiao Ming, and under the faint moonlight, these gold coins emitted a dazzling glow, and the dark room seemed to light up into a white sun for a moment.

Luckily, Xiao Ming was prepared for this and used his soul power to take it and began to fill his storage ring with gold coins the moment they appeared. Thanks to his previous experience, he easily grabbed all the gold coins in front of him, moving nimbly.

The yellow glow in the room also appeared for a moment before disappearing.

The room Xiao Ming was staying in was on the second floor of the inn, and outside the window at the back were some small courtyards belonging to the inn.

At this moment, a muscular man in yellow clothes rubbed his eyes and looked toward the window of the room Xiao Ming was staying in, with a confused expression on his face.

"Could it be that I saw it wrong? It shouldn't be, just now..."

"Ding Lao Er, what are you doing standing here muttering, didn't Boss tell you to go inform Scarface that they are going to start making their move? Let me tell you, if you bother these fat sheep, Boss won't let you go easily, he may arrest you in a fit of anger and sell you to the Blood Sect.

A thin figure silently appeared from the north side of the courtyard.

Hearing this sentence, Ding Lao Er, who was standing in the same place, dispelled the thoughts in his mind a moment ago and turned around with an unhappy face.

Staring at the thin figure, she said with a slight sneer, "You keep talking about me, you talk so loudly, as if you are afraid that others won't find out, when the time comes, we will see whether Boss will arrest you or me."

"Arrest me?" In response to Ding Lao Er's retort, the thin man smiled disdainfully as if he had heard a joke.

Seeing him like this, Ding Lao Er frowned and lost interest, not bothering to say anything else to this man.

If it wasn't because this guy still has some use and the boss needs him, he would have killed this guy a long time ago.

Ding Lao Er thought to himself and, after a cold snort, he walked out with his hands folded and went to the lobby of the inn.

The thin man stayed where he was for a while, deliberately looking for a fight.

The two men had been sparring for a long time, but whenever he could find an opportunity, he liked to upset Ding Lao Er a little, even if his opponent was stronger than him.

That was the joy of his life, and besides, it wasn't as if he had never killed an existence whose realm was higher than his, in Black-Corner Region scenes of people with a higher realm underestimating people with a lower realm occurred every day, and anyway, he wasn't the least bit afraid of Ding Lao Er.

If he could really sell this guy to the Blood Sect people, he would really like to know what this guy who was as strong as an ox turning into skin and bones would look like.

But he also knew that was impossible, most of the people in the inn had been given Soft Tendon, a tasteless, colorless powder that was hard to detect and could make a Dou Master weak and unable to raise his combat energy, so even if they found out what he and the others were doing, they wouldn't be able to run away.

Trying to rely on this to make Ding Lao Er suffer punishment was undoubtedly foolish.

The Soft Tendon powder was also the reason why he spoke without much restraint and with a certain nonchalance.

The thin man shook his head with great regret, then became excited again.

"There are quite a few fat sheep this time, plus those people during the day, I should have enough money saved up to leave... hehehehe."

The more he said, the lower he whispered the words, and finally, with a slight chuckle of contempt, the thin man also entered the lobby of the inn.

The window on the second floor.

Xiao Ming stood by the window and listened to the conversation from a moment ago through the gap, without getting a single word out, all in his ears.

'This must have been the matter the simulator mentioned'.

'It seems I was right during the day, this is a dark inn, fortunately, I didn't eat any food from this inn, nor did I touch their cutlery, otherwise I would have to spend a returning qi pill.'

Xiao Ming thought with a stoic face, the appearance of something like this in the Black-Corner Region was not something that should surprise people, two out of ten inns doing honest business was considered a good thing.

'However, in the simulator, I saw them moving five hours before dawn, by then they had been at it for a while, and combined with the conversation from earlier, they may be about to attack soon, and they shouldn't delay until then'.

It is worth mentioning here that using the simulator to simulate life was very fast, and although the process would form a series of texts in his mind, Xiao Ming only needed a split second to know all of its contents.

After the choice was made, the process of storing the gold coins in the storage ring probably took no more than five seconds.

In other words, not much time had passed after midnight at this point, which meant he was almost an hour away from the period he had originally discovered the customers were being taken.

If his plan was allowed to progress smoothly, these customers staying at the inn could be dealt with by them in one fell swoop, leaving Xiao Ming alone to deal with them.

Xiao Ming did not care whether these people staying at the inn would die or not, or whether they would be sold to the Blood Sect.

Not that he was indifferent to it either, but first, they were strangers, plus there weren't many good people who frequented Black-Corner Region so how would he feel sympathy for evil people?

However, there were things that could be done about those people, and even if in the simulation itself he managed to eliminate those dealers, it didn't mean that they couldn't turn him around.

To be on the safe side, it was best to let those customers take the initiative.

'It's for your sake too, isn't it? At least you won't die in vain like in the simulation'.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ming's originally calm face sketched a slight smile.

Raising his right hand, from the tip of his pale index finger emerged an enchanting, blooming pink flame.

It was the Peach Blossom Flame, a Beast Flame that Xiao Ming had obtained through the simulator, which was produced from the body of a rather rare fifth rank wooden magical beast, the Kui Mu Beast.

His master, Elder Huo, had also found him a beast flame, the sixth rank Blue Ghost Crystal Flame.

Compared to the sixth rank Blue Ghost Crystal Flame, the two are about the same level.

Xiao Ming had let the "spirit" absorb these two flames at the same time, and at that time he had thought that his strength would be greatly improved.

However, after the Spirit absorbed the flames into his body, not much energy was returned to the cyclone.

Xiao Ming thought that the Spirit should have used the energy to feed itself.

He tried to attack with the Spirit afterward, and it was not as weak as before, it melted a rock in an instant, and its power was incomparable.

The spirituality of the "Spirit" is more visible to the naked eye than ever.

After the Spirit devoured the two beast fires, Xiao Ming could also officially mobilize the Spirit energy to fight against the enemy.

The second Rise of Twin Spirits practice method was itself a Di Class technique, and the amount of Dou Qi stored in his body allowed him to be surrounded by several Dou Grandmasters of the same rank without fear of running out of Dou Qi.

At this time, Xiao Ming summoned the Peach Blossom Flame instead of the Blue Ghost Crystal Flame because the former was much more docile compared to the other.

Naturally, in terms of flame temperature and destructive power, it was inferior to the Dark Blue Crystal Flame.

It was perfect to use to set the inn on fire.

It could wake everyone up "peacefully" and, at the same time, prevent the fire from being so fierce that it would accidentally injure the "allied troops".

With a wave of Xiao Ming's arm, the pink flames gently furrowed through the air and drifted to the door of the room diagonally opposite to Xiao Ming's.

In an instant, the pink fire spread and expanded.

Seeing this, Xiao Ming nodded his head in satisfaction.

Returning to the bed, he picked up the black robe hanging on the bed and pulled it over his body. With the flow of Dou Qi in his body, his figure flickered and disappeared from the room.
