Chapter 83: Concealing the sky and crossing the sea, attacking the heart is the best!
After hearing the warning from Meng Qi, Xia Sheng's eyebrows immediately raised up.↖
Because at this time, there are only two types of people who appear here.
One is Brother Jing and Marquis Pingnan.
The second is to chase and kill Pingnan Hou or his own killer.
No matter which possibility it is, it is not good news for Xia Sheng today.
So he immediately asked Meng Qi two very important questions: "How far is it?"
"Not less than a hundred feet."
"How many people are there?"
"one."
Upon hearing this, Xia Sheng felt a little relieved, because at least he was sure that the person who came was not Brother Jing.
With Brother Jing’s loyalty to the Judgment Office and to Huaian, it is impossible for him to leave Pingnan Hou at this time to investigate the situation alone. After all, the last order issued to Brother Jing during Huaian’s lifetime was to let him protect Pingnan Hou in close proximity and never leave!
So Xia Sheng made a quick decision and said to Meng Qi: "Stand next to me, and you will not be allowed to speak later without my permission."
Although Meng Qi seemed a little reluctant to do this, he still walked to Xia Sheng honestly and stood with his hands behind his back.
The next moment, a man in a gray robe appeared within Meng Qi's sight. After seeing the mess in the scene clearly, he immediately stopped vigilantly.
Xia Sheng didn't even raise his head, and was still concentrating on collecting the poison contained in the Beiming Cold Scorpion Tail Hook, as if he had not realized the other party's arrival at all.
Such a strange scene suddenly made a trace of surprise and doubt flash in the eyes of the man in gray robe.
But in a flash, the crescent-shaped scar on the man in the gray robe turned hotter and scarlet. The fangs in his mouth slowly poked out, and fine snow-white hair began to grow on his arms. Then, he took another step and took half a step forward.
Immediately afterwards, a dark green light rippled from the man's body, and a fierce and violent feeling that made the scalp numb and roared!
However, just as he was about to test the two strangers, Xia Sheng suddenly spoke.
"Since I'm here, why are you still standing there? Let's help me bring the body of the flag-holder."
Xia Sheng's tone seemed to have a natural style of a strong man, a kind of high above engraved in his bones and blood, and even called a dignified strong man as his subordinate to him!
But the most important thing is the information revealed in his words.
The body of the flag-holder?
The man in the gray robe looked stunned, then turned to look at the side, and indeed saw Huaian's body that had begun to turn black.
As an assassin who followed the Judgment Office all the way from Xiling to Heishui Town and then pursued him here, Kui Mu certainly knew Huaian, and even more knew that the Judgment Office's flag-holding envoy was the biggest obstacle to his mission.
But now, he is actually dead?
That is a super strong man in the Martial Master Realm, known as one of the three giants of the Judgment Department!
If it was really so easy to kill, Kui Mu would have taken action long ago, so why wait until today?
So, how did this Master Zhangqian die?
Not only that, if he read it correctly, the corpse less than three feet away from him should be Mo Lin from the Judgment Department, and the old man who was bloody and died with his eyes closed further away was obviously Cheng Liran from the Sword Camp.
Of course, Kui Mu knew them, or to be more precise, as early as when he received the task of assassinating Pingnan Hou, he memorized the information of these people in order to find out their weaknesses one day and break them one by one.
And an hour ago, these two men showed their extremely powerful combat power under Kui Mu's nose, slaughtering all the wolves under his command. But now, only one hour has passed, they have all been killed...
Who did it?
The answer seems to be clear.
For a moment, Kui Mu suddenly felt a little cold in his heart, and when he looked at Xia Sheng again, there was a little inexplicable awe.
So he took the initiative to dissipate the murderous intent that was rising from his body and asked respectfully: "I wonder if you are?"
Xia Sheng then raised his head, glared at Kui Mu with some impatientness, and said, "Don't worry, I won't kill you. Although you and I have different goals, they are standing in the same camp after all. I am not a bloodthirsty person."
As he said that, Xia Sheng casually took out a waist sign from his arms and threw it at Kuimu from afar.
Kui Mu carefully took it to his hand, and only glanced at it, his heart couldn't help but relax.
It turns out he is from Shantang!
After learning about Xia Sheng's identity, Kui Mu's expression suddenly became more respectful. He stepped forward to Xia Sheng, stretched out his hands, handed the token back, and said with a smile: "I heard that Shantang would attack the Marquis before. The fallacies I thought were originally, but I never thought that it was true!"
Upon hearing this, Xia Sheng's expression did not change at all, but in fact he was shocked deep in his heart.
Could it be that this person was not sent by Shantang?
Xia Sheng didn't know if the other party was testing him, so he didn't respond, but raised his eyes to signal Meng Qi.
So Meng Qi took back Shantang's waist card from Kuimu, and inadvertently revealed the Sufeng Blade in his hand.
Kui Mu keenly captured the bright red on the Sufeng Blade, and then thought of the blood mark on Cheng Liran's neck, and suddenly felt an invisible pressure in his heart.
So he couldn't help but take a step back and bowed, saying, "Since it's not an enemy, then Kui was abrupt before, I hope you both forgive me."
Xia Sheng shook his head impatiently and said, "Okay, okay. Since I know my identity, don't talk nonsense here. First, help me bring the body of the flag-pin envoy and the Beiming cold scorpion. I have my own magical use."
The same sentence, when Xia Sheng said it for the first time, Kui Mu just felt it was a little strange, but now when he heard it for the second time, he had a more natural meaning.
So Kuimu nodded and soon dragged Huaian's body and Bei Ming Han Scorpion's incomplete upper body to Xia Sheng.
Then he stood respectfully and did not dare to speak nonsense.
After a full stick of incense, Xia Sheng finally extracted all the toxins in Beiming Han Scorpion's body, cut open the Beiming Han Scorpion's head, and carefully filled the Tianhan Bead into a small brown bottle.
After doing all this, Xia Sheng finally turned his gaze to Huaian's corpse and sighed deliberately: "It's still a little late. It seems unlikely to refine him into a corpse puppet. It's such a pity, it's a pity..."
Upon hearing this, Kui Mu couldn't help but shivered. Even though he was a powerful person in the Spirit Emperor Realm, he would still involuntarily rise into fear after hearing something like a corpse puppet.
Who would have thought that at this moment, Kui Mu suddenly discovered that Xia Sheng turned his gaze to him again.
"Former...sen..."
Xia Sheng smiled amiably: "Don't be afraid, I said before, I won't kill you, but I hope you can do me a favor."
Kui Mu couldn't help but take two steps back and said, "I, I don't want to be refined into a corpse puppet..."
