Chapter 42: Testing Each Other
Translator: 549690339
Liu Xu originally wanted to say something, but after hearing Xu Bail s words, she didn’t understand what he meant.
Do one more thing, do what?
She thought that Lin Fenghua had already died and avenged Xiaoyue. However, the mysterious man in front of her suddenly said something that she didn’t know what he meant.
“This is not the place to talk.” Xu Bai said.
After killing someone, they were still talking at the crime scene. Only the two of them.
Next, the two of them began to decorate the room. After arranging everything in a reasonable manner, they were ready to leave.
“The strangulation marks on his hands…” Liu Xu stared at the wrist of the corpse, pondering how to deal with it.
“The red rope is over there. There was a strangulation mark earlier.”Xu Bai walked to the window and opened it.
The two of them did not hesitate and left through the window.
The night outside the window was very dark, as if it was splashed with ink.
The street was quiet and empty. Only Xu Bai and Liu Xu’s footsteps could be heard, adding a layer of liveliness to the deserted street.
The two of them left the Lin Manor and continued on their way.
During this period, no one spoke. Both sides maintained their silence. Xu Bai only stopped when he was far away from the Lin Mansion.
“You just said that there was one more thing. “Liu Xu thought for a moment and then spoke.
Even though the two of them were both wearing masks to conceal their identities, Liu Xu still decided to break the silence.
“Clang
Xu Bai did not say anything. With a loud noise, he unsheathed his long saber from his waist and slashed at Liu Xu’s neck.
Liu Xu heard the sound of the wind breaking. Her fair fingers moved, and a brush appeared in her right hand. At the same time, a book appeared in her left.
As the pages swayed, they surrounded Liu Xu.
“Clang! ”
There was another sound. Xu Bai’s long saber did not touch Liu Xu. He sheathed his saber with a backhand, looking calm.
“You’re testing me.” Liu Xu stared at Xu Bai and frowned.
At that moment, she felt a sense of danger and was forced to use her best skill. At this moment, the charred yellow pages surrounded her, adding a little demonic.
The long blade did not land, but she exposed herself.
“I have to know your identity.” Xu Bai pressed his hand on the hilt of the long saber and said.
Brush, page, he already knew who this woman was.
A scholar.
Only a scholar would know how to use these things. In addition, this was a woman with a myriad of flirtatious feelings. Xu Bai didn’t need to think much to think of the woman in white.
There was a high possibility that the two were compatible.
“Then I don’t know where you come from.”Liu Xu gripped her brush tightly, eager to try.
Since you’re using this method to test me, then I want to try it too.
Otherwise, I won’t be able to vent my anger!
“Although this place is secluded, if we really fight and draw out others, neither of us can hide our identities.”Xu Bai said slowly.
He did have the intention to silence her with that slash just now.
However, after pondering over it, he gave up on this idea.
Before he knew the other party’s strength, if he rashly attacked now, the consequences would not be small.
If it was in the wilderness, he could give it a try. However, in Sheng County, if the two of them fought, it would definitely attract unnecessary trouble. Besides, this person had killed Lin Fenghua, so he was on board.
He, Xu Bai, loved pulling people onto the boat.
“This is what you said? It’s very unfair.” Liu Xu’s words were filled with anger.
He had tested her out in one go, but she knew nothing about this person.
“This has nothing to do with me. You were the one who was so anxious and took out the weapon in your hand. “Xu Bai said indifferently.
He really couldn’t be blamed for this. Who knew that the other party would take out the real thing after testing him?
Of course, this was exactly what he wanted.
He was still in the dark, but this woman was already out in the open.
“You were the one who killed the Underworld Blacksmith couple, as well as the officials of the Extreme Life Cult and the Heaven Inspectorate, right?”Liu Xu suddenly changed the topic.
Xu Bai raised his eyebrows but didn’t answer.
“Other than the hidden weapon wounds all over your body, you also have exquisite saber techniques. Although I didn’t see your hidden weapons, the long saber at your waist and that saber technique just now have already proved your origin.”Liu Xu said cheerfully.
The Heavenly Dao was good at reincarnation. Who would the Heaven spare?
You tested me just now, and I also saw some clues from your saber technique.
Now that they had fought to a draw, it was not a loss.
Although the other party had covered his face and she did not know his true identity, at least she knew who the martial artist behind the scenes was.
“Do you know that what you said just now was very dangerous?”Xu Bai narrowed his eyes.
“You’re not thinking of making a move here, are you?”The catkin refers to the street
Give him a taste of his own medicine.
Xu Bai was speechless.
“Actually, I don’t mean anything else. Today, I saw you fight for Xiao Yue, and I think you’re a man.”Liu Xu did not continue to provoke Xu Bai and the topic changed.
“What?” Xu Bai said.
“Why do you want to kill the officials of the Sky Supervision Department? Do you know that this is a major matter?”Liu Xu opened her beautiful eyes that were as bright as the stars. Her eyes were filled with doubt.
Meeting this person today was purely a coincidence.
However, it was this coincidence that made her even more confused. To be able to make a move for an ordinary little girl, this person’s intentions were definitely not bad.
Just like what she said before, she was in favor of killing the Nethersmith couple and the Extreme Life Cult.
However, she could not understand why he would attack the officials of the Heaven Inspectorate.
If it was the officer who had attacked him, he would probably have helped him instead. But why did he do the opposite and kill the officer?
Liu Xu took this opportunity to ask.
“Do you know anyone from the Heaven Inspectorate?” Xu Bai didn’t answer, but instead asked a question.
“I don’t know him.” Liu Xu shook her head.
“In the future, if you meet people from the Heaven Inspectorate, tell them that the official pocketed his own money and colluded with the Extreme Life Cult.”Xu Bai said.
At this moment, both sides were probing each other.
Xu Bai took this opportunity to tell him about Iron Calculation Immortal.
Just like what Liu Xu said, there would be trouble after killing the people of the Heaven Inspectorate.
Then he would reveal the truth of the matter and use Liu Xu’s mouth to convey it to the Heaven Inspectorate.
As for how to deal with it after that, he couldn’t care less.
If the Heaven Inspectorate was upright and could find out Tie Suanxian’s background, he would naturally be fine.
If it didn’t work, he would make other plans.
Ever since he killed Tie Suanxian, he had already thought of the consequences.
“To fill their own pockets and join forces with the Extreme Life Sect?”Liu Xu was slightly surprised.
She hadn’t expected this.
“If I run into the people from the Heaven Inspectorate, I will explain to them.”Liu Xu said.
She seemed to feel that this sentence was not clear, so she added another sentence.
“If it was a chivalrous act, he shouldn’t have been wronged.”
“To uphold justice… Let’s go.” Xu Bai rubbed his chin and turned to walk toward the night sky.
Liu Xu did not follow him. She was also preparing to go home.
At this moment, Xu Bai had already walked to the corner of the street. Suddenly, he poked his head out from the corner.
“Oh right, there’s one more thing..”
