Chapter 143 - 143: Clay Sculpture’s Murderous Intent Begins
Liu Er gripped the long saber in his hand tightly.” Wait here. I’ll go find the escort master and see what he has to say.””
When the young man in embroidered clothes heard this, he did not say anything more. He only nodded and quietly stopped in his place.
Liu Er turned around and entered the backyard. He came to the door of Xu Bai’s room and gently knocked on it.
“Enter.”
After receiving the order, he pushed the door open and entered.
Seeing Xu Bai sitting on a chair with a book in his hand, he quickly lowered his head and explained what had happened.
Hearing Liu Er’s words, Xu Bai put down the Hundred Poisons Scripture in his hand, pressed his elbow on the table, and fell into deep thought.
A moment later, he waved his hand.”
At this time, someone came to look for him, and it was someone he did not know. It was very interesting. He wanted to see who it was.
Liu Er quickly agreed. Without hesitation, he turned around and headed to the front yard.
After arriving at the front courtyard, he told the young man in embroidered clothes to enter, but not to cause trouble inside.
The young man in embroidered clothes only smiled and stepped into the backyard. He followed the path in the backyard and walked to the door of the room.
The door to the backyard was closed when Liu Er left. The young man in embroidered clothes came to the door and raised his hand. He used his other hand to pull his sleeve and gently knocked on the door.
The entire process was filled with courtesy. Even when he knocked on the door, he had to hold his sleeve with one hand. If one looked closely, one would find that this young man in embroidered clothes had received a very good education.
Sometimes, it was difficult to completely imitate a person’s aura.
Not only did the young man in embroidered clothes have a shrewd aura, but he also had a noble aura.
“Come in.”
Xu Bai’s voice came from the room.
The young man in embroidered clothes pushed the door open and closed it. He cupped his hands and said to Xu Bai,’”‘Greetings, Escort Leader Xu.”
He had a smile on his face. If someone else was here, they would think that he had a good relationship with Xu Bai.
Xu Bai narrowed his eyes and tapped his fingers on the table rhythmically. “Who are you? Why are you looking for me?”
The question was direct and straightforward.
At this time, Xu Bai did not want to play any tricks. If there was anything, he would face it openly.
“Escort Leader Xu is indeed a straightforward person. I’ll be straightforward then. It seems that the Yun family’s assassin has been personally dealt with by Escort Leader Xu.”The young man smiled.
After he said this, the crowd fell silent.
“I don’t understand what you’re talking about. “‘What Yun family?” Xu Bai asked calmly. I don’t understand a single word you’re saying.”
“Escort Leader Xu, smart people don’t lie in front of others. That killer was more than enough to deal with Qingxue, but he died. As far as I know, Qingxue came to find you. In this Sheng County, other than Yun Zihai, only you have this ability.”The young man in embroidered clothes spoke slowly, as if he had everything in his hands.
At this moment, Xu Bai moved.
He turned into a streak of black light and rushed toward the young man in embroidered clothes. At the same time, the Ghost Head Blade at his waist flashed with a cold light.
The young man in embroidered clothes reacted very quickly. His hands kept moving, and shadows appeared in the air, pressing down on Xu Bai.
This shadow was like clouds and fog. Waves of white fog appeared on the young man in embroidered clothes and instantly filled the room. The young man in embroidered clothes disappeared in the fog.
The shadow landed on Xu Bails body. At this moment, cracks appeared on the black light, but it did not shatter.
At the same time, Star Transposition appeared and moved the phantom in all directions in an instant.
“Bang!”
A muffled groan sounded, and the surrounding fog disappeared. The young man in embroidered clothes took two steps back, his face full of surprise.
“Boundless Dao Scripture? Or something else?”
Blood flowed out from the corner of the young man’s mouth.
He didn’t expect Xu Bai to have such a magical ability to counter all his attacks, so he suffered a loss.
In that exchange, he had already suffered light injuries.
Xu Bai held Ghost Head Blade upside down and used the Four Steps Technique.
“Are you playing tricks with me?”
His tone was filled with contempt, mockery, and endless killing intent.
Ghost Head Blade was wrapped in black light as it slashed down at the young man in embroidered clothes.
If this slash landed, it would be able to split the young man in embroidered clothes into two.
The blade was about to land.
At this moment, the young man in embroidered clothes suddenly reached into his pocket and took out a token. Then, he said something in the fastest tone he had ever spoken in his life.
“I am the military advisor under the Sixth Prince. I am here to make friends with you!”
These words were spoken very quickly. Just as he finished speaking, Ghost Head Blade was only an inch away from the young man’s forehead.
Cold sweat dripped down from the head of the young man in embroidered clothes. He did not even blink. The noble aura from before had disappeared.
It was terrifying.
The killing intent in that instant made him understand that the other party really intended to kill him directly. If he had not said this at the critical moment, he would have become a corpse by now.
“It’s alright, it’s alright.” The young man let out a long breath and wiped the sweat off his forehead with his luxurious sleeves.
At this moment, Xu Bai sheathed his saber, returned to his seat, and took a sip of tea.
Compared to his initial murderous and murderous look, he looked completely different.
Xu Bai put down his teacup, smacked his lips, and said leisurely,””Prince Six wants to be friends with me?”
