"Good, you dare to kill people in prison." The jailer came to the cell early in the morning. Seeing the two corpses lying inside and the intact Nie Li, his heart flashed a trace of surprise and panic.
Nie Li looked at him. This jailer was the guy who called the three of them out yesterday. He must know something. Finding that Nie Li had been staring at him, he knew that the actions of the three people were exposed. He secretly cursed in his heart.
"Good boy, your temper is quite strong. See if I don't teach you a lesson." The jailer knew that he needed to find some dignity. He took out the key and prepared to open the door.
"Stop." A feminine shout sounded in the quiet prison. An unexpected person appeared. Nie Li did not expect it to be Egret.
"This is the document from above. Take a look yourself!" Egret took out a paper from his bosom and threw it to the jailer. Although he did not know what kind of person Egret was, he still knew.
The jailer picked up the document on the ground and looked at it carefully. His face was difficult and hesitant. "Hurry up, believe it or not, I will kill you." Egret's tone was cold, like a poisonous snake.
"Good." The jailer sighed and opened the door with the key. Then he went in and unlocked Nie Li's handcuffs and ankles. He let him leave. His tone was softer than usual.
This is simply a fight between immortals, mortals suffer. He could not afford to offend the person who gave him the order and the person who was now here. He might as well be the middleman and let them fight among themselves.
Nie Li moved his body and glanced at Egret. Then he walked in front of him. "Let's go! Big brother has been waiting for you for a long time. "Egret took the lead and walked away. Nie Li followed behind. Walking out of the prison, the sunlight outside was a bit dazzling. Nie Li squinted his eyes to adapt and followed Egret to the carriage.
"How did you know I was in prison?" Nie Li looked at Egret opposite him. The contempt in his eyes had not reduced by a bit.
"Someone gave big brother a letter saying that you were in prison. Then big brother asked the city lord to send a letter." Egret glanced at Nie Li. He did not expect big brother to value this little cripple so much.
When Nie Li heard this, his heart skipped a beat. Not many people knew that he had been framed and imprisoned. But since Zhang Junshi wanted to kill him, why did he tell Fang Tong that he was in prison and ask him to save him?
"I hope you'll know your place. You can't just get involved in anyone or anything in Ocean of Clouds City." Bai Lu felt that it wasn't worth it when she thought about how Fang Tong had gone to such great lengths to save Nie Li.
"Got it." Nie Li wasn't angry. He knew his own weight. Especially after this incident, he understood the importance of strength. On the contrary, his heart yearned for power even more. After he finished speaking, he didn't say anything else. Bai Lu didn't like Nie Li to begin with, so she didn't say anything either.
In silence, the two of them quickly arrived at the Fang Residence. Fang Tong had been waiting for them at the entrance for a long time. Nie Li followed Bai Lu out of the carriage. Seeing Fang Tong in front of him, a trace of warmth flowed through his heart.
"Brother Nie, are you alright? Go wash up in the mansion first. I've already prepared everything for you. "Fang Tong put her arm around Nie Li's shoulder and walked into the mansion, instructing the servants to bring Nie Li to wash up.
Pushing open the door, Nie Li was greeted with hot steam and steam. The servant waited for Nie Li to enter before closing the door. Looking at the spacious bathtub, Nie Li took off his prison clothes. Although the wounds on his body had healed, the scars left behind could not be removed, just like his heart.
Looking at the clothes and the blade beside the bathtub, Nie Li clenched his five fingers and made a decision. He jumped into the bathtub and let the warm water wrap around him.
After changing into a new set of clothes, Nie Li hung the blade on his waist and pushed open the door. Fang Tong, Bai Lu, and a group of people were practicing martial arts in the courtyard. When they saw Nie Li, they couldn't help clicking their tongues in amazement.
Previously, Nie Li was wearing a shabby prison clothes. His messy hair and dirty face made him look like a beggar. But now, it was completely different. His jet-black hair hung down to his waist, his handsome face, and his elegant and proud temperament matched with the red and black battle clothes. He didn't give off a gaudy feeling. Instead, he looked even more heroic and extraordinary.
"Looking at it this way, if other women saw Little Brother Nie's appearance, I'm afraid they would also be shocked by it," Fang Tong praised with a smile.
"Brother Fang, you flatter me. Is the skin all the same? Only the blade in the hand is meaningful. " Nie Li's mouth curved into an imperceptible smile. When Fang Tong heard Nie Li's words, he thought that it was normal for Nie Li to pay attention to his appearance at such an age. He didn't expect that Nie Li only had eyes and heart for the blade.
Looking at his eyes again, compared to the last time he saw Nie Li, there was a little less innocence and enthusiasm. If his indifference before was deliberate alienation and resistance, then the coldness in his eyes now was without a trace of emotion. It was a real coldness, like ice that wouldn't melt for thousands of years.
"Brother Nie, I don't know if you have offended some influential people. Why don't you stay here? With me, Fang Tong, here, I can guarantee your safety. "Fang Tong made a promise, but the intention of soliciting in his words could still be heard.
"Brother Fang, please let me go back to the inn." Nie Li hesitated for a moment. After Fang Tong heard it, his face was a little disappointed. But in the blink of an eye, he returned to normal. Bai Lu was so angry that his face turned blue. He didn't expect his brother to think so highly of him, but he still wanted to leave.
"Okay! I won't force you. If you need my help, remember to come to me. " Fang Tong patted Nie Li's shoulder. Looking at Fang Tong, Nie Li found a trace of his father's shadow in him.
"Brother Fang, I will go back to the inn to get my things and solve my problem. I will come back to follow you. "Nie Li's words made Fang Tong's mood rise from hell to heaven. His face was full of joy.
Watching Nie Li leave, Fang Tong and Bai Lu walked into the inner hall. Seeing that there was no one around, Bai Lu finally couldn't help but ask Fang Tong, "Brother, why do you think so highly of that guy?"
"Bai Lu, if I said it was fate, would you believe it? When I first saw him, I felt like I was looking at myself when I first came to Cloud Sea City. He was very similar to me, but not that similar. "Fang Tong recalled.
"Bai Lu doesn't understand." Hearing the meaning in his brother's words, Bai Lu was puzzled. When he met Fang Tong, he had already become a big figure in the Cloud Sea Gang. So, he hadn't seen Fang Tong when he just came to Jianghu.
"He is a talent that can be molded. I can tell just by looking at his knife skills. But he is different from me. The hatred in his eyes is too strong, and he is too stubborn. He can go higher and further. Maybe he will become the overlord of the martial arts world. " Fang Tong sighed. He knew that Nie Li wouldn't be with him for too long, but it was enough for now.
Bai Lu didn't expect Fang Tong to think so highly of Nie Li. His prejudice against this guy was also reduced a little. He was looking forward to seeing Nie Li's performance.
Nie Li, who was walking on the street, went straight to the inn. Seeing that Nie Li had disappeared for so many days, Cao Xin thought that he had died outside. After all, the assassination that day had caused quite a commotion. But now that he saw him appear in front of him in high spirits, he was still a little surprised.
When he returned to the house, the package was still untouched. Nie Li carried it on his back and glanced at Mu Si's room. He immediately put the package down. Cao Xin was a member of the Yun Hai clan. If he killed him, he would be going against Fang Tong. He was indebted to him. But if he had something that he needed to get back, he would ask Fang Tong for forgiveness.
After putting down the package, Nie Li went straight into the lobby. He saw Lin Feng and whispered something in his ear. Then he went into the backyard. In the empty backyard, there was a plum blossom tree. Nie Li realized that there were quite a lot of plum blossom trees here.
After standing under the plum blossom tree for a while, looking at the plum blossom petals on the ground and the fragrance on his nose, Nie Li saw Cao Xin's round body coming over.
"You're finally here."
"You too, you finally couldn't help it."
"The thing is in my room. You can take it if you win. But you don't have a chance. "
"The thing is also in my room. I haven't sold it yet. I was waiting for you to make a move."
"This plum blossom tree was planted by you!"
"It was the previous owner of the inn, and also my big brother."
"It's beautiful here."
"I think so too."
"Then you can stay here forever!"
After saying that, Nie Li's body was like an arrow leaving the bow. He quickly rushed to Cao Xin and rolled up the petals on the ground. The red petals disturbed the vision and fell on Nie Li's shoulder.
"Shua" The blade flashed, the blade was unsheathed, and the killing intent hidden in the plum blossom trees broke the petals. Cao Xin retreated. He didn't expect Nie Li's blade technique to be so fast, and his skill had improved greatly.
"Snow looking for plum blossom" Nie Li took advantage of the victory to pursue. He never gave the enemy a chance to fight back. His blade was always one step faster and took people's lives. The snow was looking for a touch of red, but in this sky of red plum blossom, what was he looking for?
The red plum blossom was everywhere, but the killing intent, the killing intent he was looking for was everywhere. Then in this countless killing intent, what was he looking for? Maybe he was not looking for plum blossom at the beginning, but a person.
The snow was all over the sky, the plum blossom fluttered, the moonlight fell on the window, a tree was clear.
Nie Li's blade was getting faster and faster. His blade was hidden behind the plum blossom, hidden behind the beauty of withering, hidden in the blooming of death.
The blade was stained with blood, the person was beautiful, the withered plum blossom covered the bones.
Cao Xin struggled to resist, but Nie Li's reckless figure and the majestic internal force rolled up the plum blossom like the snow in winter, blending with Nie Li and falling.
What surprised him even more was that Nie Li's internal force was not as majestic as his own, but the power was not weaker than his own. What kind of cultivation method did he practice that could make his internal force so pure.
He kept slapping Nie Li's blade with his hand. The fierce blade technique was too fast.
"Blood plum blossoms in the moonlight." Nie Li's blade technique changed, and there was a trace of fluttering and change in the swift and direct way. The dazzling blade technique bloomed in the plum blossom rain. Nie Li's figure was like a dancing fairy. Cao Xin watched more and more fascinated. He felt happy to die under such a blade technique. It seemed that many years ago, his big brother took him and stood under the plum blossom tree.
