Zhao Xi, who was running away, and Xue Xin, who was pursuing him, leaped from the top of the three-story building to the street below.
The streets were bustling with activity, bustling with activity.
"Peng!" Zhao Xi rolled on the ground, stood up, and ran.
"Don't even think of escaping!" Xue Xin's inner strength burst forth from his feet and he dashed out with a whoosh.
"Murder!"
"Murder!"
A few pedestrians on the spacious street couldn't help but shout loudly. Immediately, many pedestrians hurriedly moved to the sides of the street to make way, while the pedestrians in the distance quickly moved closer. The customers of the brothels, shops, and restaurants on both sides of the street also looked down.
"Look, isn't that Young Master Zhao?"
"Someone dares to kill Young Master Zhao?"
The discussions continued, but no one interfered to save Zhao Xi.
"Who are you? How dare you try to kill me?" Zhao Xi bellowed as he fled in a sorry state.
"Hmph." Xue Xin snorted coldly. "You bastard, you should have died long ago!" As Xue Xin spoke, he continuously hacked at Zhao Xi with his horse-slaying saber … However, Zhao Xi's ability to dodge attacks within a small area was indeed amazing. Even though Xue Xin's strength had increased greatly, he was still unable to kill Zhao Xi.
"My lord!"
The two guards also wanted to rush out to save Zhao Xi, but their bodies trembled and they fell to the ground. Teng Qingshan glanced at him with a faint smile, weighing two broken stones in his hand.
"Those two pieces of trash." Out of the corner of his eye, Zhao Xi noticed that the two experts he had hired were lying on the ground, unable to get up. He couldn't help feeling anxious. "There's more than one person chasing after me. There was a second person. I must end this battle quickly so that I can escape. "It was clear that Zhao Xi was very confident in dealing with Xue Xin.
He was just worried …
The mysterious expert who secretly dealt with the two guards.
"Puchi!" Zhao Xi actually grabbed the Zhanmadao with his left hand. The Zhanmadao contained a terrifying force that caused Zhao Xi's body to tremble, and he could not help but take two steps back.
"Hmm? Gloves? "Xue Xin also noticed the translucent gloves on Zhao Xi's hands.
Zhao Xi's gaze turned cold.
Then, he raised his right hand, which was holding the weapon, and pointed his sleeve at Xue Xin.
Xiu! Xiu! Xiu! Xiu! Xiu! Xiu!
For a moment, dozens of tiny poisonous needles shot out from Zhao Xi's sleeves at the same time. These poisonous needles were like embroidery needles. Coupled with their high speed and short distance, Xue Xin had no way of dodging them. He could not help but widen his eyes in fear. "No —" He was not willing to die. He still had a great enmity to avenge!
Whoosh!
With a blur, Teng Qingshan appeared beside Xue Xin. Simultaneously, he waved his right arm, and several tens of poisonous needles were swept away by Teng Qingshan's right sleeve almost at the same time.
"This — —" Seeing Teng Qingshan's sudden appearance and easily intercepting his concealed weapon, Zhao Xi's heart turned cold. He was completely sure that he was an innate expert. Moreover, he should be a True Dan innate expert or even a Golden Dan innate expert! It's over, it's over … "A servant climbed up step by step.
Zhao Xi's eyesight and scheming were extremely good.
"Am I going to die? No, no … "Zhao Xi seemed to have gone mad. He stared at Teng Qingshan and screamed," No, you can't kill me!!! "
However, Teng Qingshan did not even bother to look at Zhao Xi. Instead, he glanced at his disciple, Xue Xin.
Cold sweat appeared on Xue Xin's forehead. He had been on the brink of death just now and was indeed scared.
"Teacher." Xue Xin felt slightly ashamed.
"Alright, kill him first," Teng Qingshan ordered.
Xue Xin turned to look at Zhao Xi. Zhao Xi's face was deathly pale, and he seemed to have gone mad. At this moment, Zhao Xi knew that the mysterious expert, Teng Qingshan, was present and that he had no chance to escape.
"You can't kill me." Zhao Xi took out a dark cyan token from his bosom and said anxiously, "I am the External Deacon of Qing Hu Island in Wuan County. This is a public place. If you kill me … …" Zhao Xi didn't say much. He believed that the two experts in front of him would understand.
"Deacon?" Teng Qingshan laughed and said, "That's even better!"
"Even better?" Zhao Xi froze.
"Puchi!" A saber light flashed.
"No —"
A shrill cry that resounded through the heavens and earth rang out from Zhao Xi's mouth, and a head flew into the air. Even as the head flew into the air, Zhao Xi was still screaming. Blood gushed out from Zhao Xi's severed neck like water. Many onlookers on the street cried out in alarm.
"I finally killed one." Xue Xin stared at the head that had fallen to the ground. His heart was in turmoil.
"Let's go," Teng Qingshan said. Xue Xin woke up with a start and replied, "Yes, Teacher."
Immediately, Teng Qingshan and Xue Xin entered the crowd and disappeared. There were still many people gathered on the street as they stared at the corpse and discussed among themselves. Zhao Xi, the man of the hour in Wuan County City who could do whatever he wanted in Wuan County City, had been killed on the street just like that.
*****
In just a short while …
A group of several hundred people rushed over in a frenzy. The person leading the group was a beautiful woman. This woman's face was pale, and her hair was very messy.
"Make way!" "Make way!"
A large number of shouts rang out.
Many onlookers on the street hastily made way for the group of several hundred people. They quickly surrounded the place where the chase had taken place.
When the beautiful woman saw the corpse, her face instantly turned pale. She couldn't help but scream, "Ah Xi!!!" She knelt down and hugged the head with trembling hands.
"Who?! Who killed Ah Xi?! Who?!! "
The beautiful woman raised her head and screamed. She seemed to have gone mad.
"Madam, Madam." Seeing their madam in such a frenzy, the two maids were slightly terrified.
"Go and find out who killed Ah Xi!" The woman glared at her surroundings. "No matter who it is, I will cut him into pieces!!!" The several hundred people in the surroundings didn't dare to speak any nonsense. They immediately dashed into the crowd and began to interrogate the onlookers.
… …
In the General's Mansion of Wuan County City:
A bearded man wearing a fur coat was lying comfortably on a chair. He was fiddling with a metal ball in his hand. He squinted his eyes and hummed a tune. Occasionally, he would tease the maids beside him.
"General, General." An anxious voice came from outside.
"What's the commotion?" The general opened his eyes in dissatisfaction.
A middle-aged military officer dashed in and said anxiously, "General, something big happened. Zhao Xi was killed on the street below the Warm Breeze Building."
"What?!" The general immediately got up.
"Brother Zhao is dead?" The general couldn't believe it. "How, how is this possible? Brother Zhao was quite strong. He was a First Rated Warrior. Not to mention his guards, Brother Zhao was a cautious person. How could he be killed on the street? "It would be fine if he was poisoned to death, but killed on the street?
It was too strange.
"He's dead. Then the business …" The general frowned. He had a share in the business that Zhao Xi was in charge of. If Zhao Xi died, it would be troublesome.
"General, Zhao Xi's wife is crying on the street below the Warm Breeze Building." The middle-aged military officer said anxiously.
"Zhao Xi's wife? The Young Mistress of Qing Hu Island? "The general was shocked. He hastily shouted," Let's go. Let's hurry over … "
"Fourth Brother!" The general suddenly yelled.
"General." A shout came from afar.
"Brothers of the First and Second Battalions, gather. Let's go!" The general yelled. The First Battalion of the City Guards had more men than the First Battalion of the Gui Yuan Sect's Black Armoured Corps. The First Battalion had two thousand men. Two Battalions had four thousand men.
… …
In Zhao Xi's mansion, General Li of the City Guards had arrived with a group of personal guards.
The whole mansion was covered in white mourning clothes. The sound of crying could be heard from afar.
"General Li." The young woman, dressed in white mourning clothes, walked out of the hall.
"Sister-in-law, what … what happened?" General Li asked anxiously.
"What happened?" The young woman's eyes were red. She gritted her teeth and stared at General Li. "How would I know what happened? My Ah Xi worked with you guys. Now that Ah Xi is dead … You guys still don't know who did it? I don't care about anything else, but the murderer must be caught and hacked into pieces!!! "
General Li's face darkened slightly. However, when he thought of the identity of the murderer, he endured it.
"Don't be too sad, sister-in-law." General Li comforted her. "Don't worry. There's no one in Wuan County that I can't find! Since they dared to kill my brother … I'll make sure they regret being born! "
General Li was filled with hatred.
Not only did he want to avenge Zhao Xi, but more importantly, Zhao Xi's death was a great loss to General Li.
"Yes, I'll make them regret being born!" The woman was furious.
He had to admit that General Li and the people from Zhao Xi's mansion were indeed well-informed in Wuan County. In just an hour, they received news that the two murderers had entered a mansion – the Jing Mansion!
*****
"Hurry!" "Hurry!"
The armored soldiers were like a dark flood. Soon, the street in front of the Jing Mansion was completely covered.
"Surround the Jing Mansion! Surround it tightly!" General Li shouted angrily.
"Yes, General."
The sound of armor colliding with metal could be heard. Two thousand soldiers surrounded the Jing Mansion tightly. Not even a single drop of water could enter. Another two thousand soldiers and several hundred members of the Zhao Clan blocked the entrance of the Jing Mansion. General Li and Madame Zhao were among the crowd, glaring angrily at the entrance of the Jing Mansion.
"Close the door?" Madame Zhao sneered and shouted, "Break open the door!"
At this moment …
"Click!" The sound of a wooden bolt being pulled rang out.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!" The two large iron doors were slowly opened. Many of the guards of the Jing Mansion had long since retreated far away. However, a young man dressed in a white robe and carrying a sword on his back and a young man with a hideous scar on his face walked out of the door one after another.
Silence reigned.
Xue Xin looked at the countless Black Armoured Corps soldiers outside. Even though he was beside his teacher, he still felt nervous.
"It's him. He killed Lord Zhao Xi." A man with triangular eyes, who was standing beside Madame Zhao, pointed at Xue Xin angrily.
"It's you!"
Madame Zhao glared at Xue Xin and said, "How dare you kill my man! I will exterminate your entire family!!! "
At the side, General Li's expression also darkened. He glared at Xue Xin and said, "How dare you kill the Deacon of Qing Hu Island's Outer Court in public! This is a crime that will result in the extermination of the entire family. Guards …. Detain everyone in the Jing Mansion!"
The order was given!
Immediately, the soldiers behind General Li, who had filled the entire street, surged towards the Jing Residence like a tidal wave. The guards and maids of the Jing Mansion were so frightened that they started crying. Many of them shouted, "My Lord, this has nothing to do with us." "My Lord, please spare our lives."
It was chaos.
Teng Qingshan stared at the soldiers rushing towards the entrance of the Jing Mansion. His expression darkened and he shouted angrily, "Scram!"
"Scram!" "Scram!" "Scram!"
Immediately, the soldiers at the front fell to the ground and covered their ears in pain as if they were hit by an invisible shockwave. Over a hundred soldiers fell to the ground. Although the other thousand soldiers did not fall to the ground, their faces all turned pale. Madame Zhao's face also turned pale. Only General Li remained calm.
"Who are you?" General Li's expression darkened and he shouted angrily, "How dare you become Qing Hu Island's enemy? Quickly hand over the culprit and I will spare your life. If you resist ….. you will be an accomplice! You will be sentenced to death! "
Even an innate expert would have to lower his head in front of a county general who controlled an army of one hundred thousand soldiers.
