d be snatched away to become his wife. Therefore, his wife would always remain the most beautiful.At this moment, Xia Tian was asking his pretty wife, Qiao Xiaoqiao, something: "Wife, should we now be...Chapter 1342 - Is This Opening a Pharmacy

"Are you an idiot" Xia Tian had already left the pharmacy and kicked the owner back down. "It was me who did the snatching, don't I look like a detective"

Glancing at the detectives who were moving the herbs, Xia Tian instructed them again: "Hey, arrest this guy too! He sold me fake medicine and tricked me with wild ginseng that wasn’t even a hundred years old. I hate people who sell fake medicine or deceive others!"

Hearing his words, these detectives immediately handcuffed the pharmacy owner without any hesitation. All they wanted was to finish their task as soon as possible so they could stay away from Xia Tian.

"That’s too much! Why would a detective act like this"

"Yeah, why aren’t they arresting the thief but instead arresting an innocent person..."

"Don’t let these detectives leave! Stop them…"

"These detectives are arresting people randomly…"

...

The onlookers were full of righteous indignation. Some even approached the detective cars, but at this moment, a series of sounds echoed in everyone’s ears: "Boom… Splash… Bang…"

People turned their heads to look at the source of the sound, only to stare in disbelief. How arrogant could this robber be He robbed and then smashed the store

Within less than a minute, Xia Tian had completely wrecked the pharmacy, even kicking down its front wall. Witnessing this scene made everyone speechless; those who were planning to surround the luxury car also froze in place.

"Alright, long-legged girl, let's go!" Feeling satisfied with his venting, Xia Tian patted his hands and got into the luxury car. The plainclothes officers took advantage of the shocked crowd and quickly left; they didn't want to be besieged by the crowd. If things escalated, Xia Tian would likely be fine, but they might end up being scapegoats.

By Moonfall Lake.

Xia Tian's temporary residence.

"Brother-in-law, are you planning to open a pharmacy" In the living room, Liu Yunshe couldn't help asking as she and Hu Feifei had just returned to the villa.

"I'm going to refine medicine." Xia Tian said lazily before carrying all the medicinal materials upstairs. Soon, he had moved everything into an empty room on the second floor of the villa and locked himself inside for the entire night, only emerging with a yawn at dawn.

"What are you refining exactly" Night Yumei seemed to have not slept either; she looked well-rested and probably had meditated all night.

"Don't worry, it's not an aphrodisiac." Xia Tian replied lazily: "I don't need an aphrodisiac to deal with you. There will be a day when you'll throw yourself into my arms... Ah, this phrase seems quite rhyming!"

"You continue dreaming in your room!" Night Yumei said coldly.

"I'm still not asleep yet." Xia Tian yawned again. "I can't sleep on an empty stomach, Tall-Leg Sister, could you go and buy breakfast for me"

Night Yu Mei snorted coldly; did this little rascal want her to serve him

"Alright, I'll go buy it for you," Xia Tian answered instead, then disappeared inside the house.

Night Yu Mei was slightly taken aback before she too vanished in a flash.

Ten minutes later,

Xia Tian returned to the villa, and almost simultaneously, Night Yu Mei came back as well.

"Tall-Leg Sister, here are some steamed buns," Xia Tian tossed a bag of steamed buns to Night Yu Mei. "I know you like eating them."

After pausing for a moment, he continued, "If you wanted to go and buy breakfast with me, just say so. How would I know that you wanted to accompany me if you don't speak up"

Night Yu Mei snorted coldly and carried the bag of steamed buns upstairs.

Looking at her retreating back, Xia Tian muttered to himself, "Can eating more steamed buns really make your chest bigger" Then he shook his head. "No wait, steamed buns don't seem to have any breast-enlarging effects!"

"Swoosh!" A white figure flew towards Xia Tian, it turned out to be Ye Yumei, who, upon hearing his muttering, angrily threw a steamed bun at him.

Xia Tian reached out and caught the bun, but as soon as he held it in hand, something felt off. An immense force suddenly surged towards him; under this impact, he staggered backwards several steps before managing to regain his balance勉強站穩.

"If I hear you gossiping again, I'll smash your mouth!" Ye Yumei coldly said and disappeared into the bedroom on the second floor.

"Wanna break my mouth I'd love to bite your steamed bun to pieces then!" Xia Tian curled his lips. He wasn't afraid of Ye Yumei's threats, although she was currently more powerful than him in terms of cultivation, when it came down to fighting, he wouldn't necessarily be afraid of her either. But at the moment, there was no need for him and her to fight to the death, after all, their biggest enemy now were those disciples from the Mystic Immortal Sect who were searching for Yue Qingya's whereabouts.

Thinking about Ye Yumei’s fancy steamed bun compared to the small one in his hand, Xia Tian couldn't help but sigh internally. They're both buns, why is there such a huge difference

In thought, he bit half of the small bun in his hand.

"Brother-in-law, you got up so early" Liu Yunying's voice came from downstairs, as she was coming down while rubbing her eyes, clearly having just woken up.

And Hu Feifei walked out from the bathroom; it seemed that she had gotten up slightly earlier than him when he went to buy breakfast.

"I haven't gone back to sleep yet." Xia Tian casually said and started his assault on the breakfast he just bought.

Before long, the breakfast he brought back was finished, at which point he told Liu Yunying, "I left some breakfast for you guys. I'm going to take a nap first; don't call me unless it's an emergency!"

In the summer heat, he would directly head to the second floor, dive into his bedroom, and fall onto the bed to sleep soundly.

The Jing Bureau of Yuenan City.

The bureau was very busy now. However, besides the inspectors, there were also investigative teams from the provincial department working here. Hu Hongguang personally led the provincial investigators to follow up on old cases that had been uncovered during national security interrogations. Meanwhile, the local inspectors were currently busy with two cases: one was the explosion at Moonfall Lake Hotel, and the other involved a series of murders.

However, neither case is actually under the jurisdiction of the Jing Bureau now. The local Jing Bureau only assists in these investigations. The murder case is led by Xia Tian from what's called the Heavenly Dao Team, while the explosion case was taken over by the national security department and declared to be related to state security.

Although these people at the municipal bureau no longer have the authority to handle either of these cases, they were still very busy. The busiest among them was Tian Bohong and his Major Case Team because they were directly assisting with both cases.

But their busyness is nominal; although they look busy, in reality, none of them are doing any substantial work. Almost all the inspectors at the municipal bureau are消極怠工, as they harbor resentment towards Xia Tian and the national security department. The members of the Major Case Team had been interrogated by the national security department, which was due to Xia Tian's order. Although they now feel pressured by Xia Tian's powerful background and say nothing in his presence, it is impossible for them to seriously investigate cases.

Of course, there's an exception with Tian Bohong; he has been diligently investigating the Baihua Tower all along. However, due to Chen Shaojun's disappearance, the clues have run dry, making further investigation seem impossible.

"Boss, why don't you let the national security department handle this" Wang Xia couldn’t help but say when she saw Tian Bohong busy working.

"What are you talking about This is our case. Letting others take over would mean we have no face left in Yuenan City once it gets reported!" Tian Bohong was clearly upset, "Do you want the news to report that Yuenan City has solved two major cases but not by its own Jing Bureau At that time, everyone will blame us for being incompetent!"

Wang Xia hesitated, although she knew what Tian Bohong said made sense, yet deep down, she didn’t want to put her heart into investigating this case.

Tian Bohong didn't say anything else and sat there in deep thought, pondering what to do next.

"Drip drip!" Suddenly, his phone rang with a new text message.

Tian Bohong took it out. The text was from an unknown number, but it wasn't spam; rather, it was an anonymous tip-off: "Xie Youcai is hiding in the countryside at his ancestral home. He isn’t the real boss of Yue Luo Lake Hotel."

He tried calling back this number that sent the message, only to find out that the other party had turned off their phone. This left Tian Bohong somewhat puzzled: Who gave him this clue Is it reliable

"Could it be her" A sensuous and flirtatious figure suddenly appeared in his mind.

Summer didn’t sleep long; around 10:30 am, he received a call from Lu Jinsong of the Dragon Team.

Although he was woken up by Lu Jinsong, Summer felt somewhat excited because finally, the National Security Bureau had found some leads on Huang Jingyi.

The thing that surprised Summer a little was that Huang Jingyi’s current location was also near Moonfall Lake. In fact, Huang Jingyi now lived in a villa right by Moonfall Lake too. Of course, Moonfall Lake is huge, so even though both villas are located on its shores, the distance between them is quite far.

But this distance wasn’t an issue for Summer at all. The only problem was that just as he was about to head over there right away, he heard Mu Han’s enticing and proud voice from the other side of the line.

"Husband, is the murderer hiding in the villa also a cultivator" As soon as she connected the call, Mu Han asked directly. Clearly, she already knew that the National Security Bureau had found someone; this was normal since Lu Jinsong probably reported to her before reporting to Summer. later, when Xia Tian carried her into the bathroom to bathe her, she no longer seemed angry. If it were before, she would definitely be annoyed at Xia Tian for taking advantage of her, but after expe...
