Chapter 24: You Make Me Sick
Swoosh!
Xiao Shi struck again.
Xu Feng could only use the long saber in his hand to block. Although he could barely block it, the shocking power of Xiao Shi's every slash made him fall back, vomiting blood and being injured continuously. If not for the chaotic Qi and blood in his body, he would definitely not be like this.
However, when Xiao Shi's mark exploded, it was as if his power was sealed, making him unable to fight back at all.
The intense danger of death made him deeply understand what it meant to die from talking too much. At this moment, he was covered in blood and fell to the ground in a dispirited manner. The palm holding the saber had been cracked by the two collisions, and blood flowed.
Xiao Shi raised the dark gold sword in his hand. Killing intent flashed in his eyes. With the other party's current situation, he was no longer able to withstand this sword.
It was time to end it.
However, just as the dark golden sword in Xiao Shi's hand was about to slash down, three silver-white sharp needles suddenly swept over from behind him at an extremely fast speed. On the tip of the needle, there were dark green light spots that were poisonous!
Swoosh!
The silver needles kept shooting forward.
Behind Xiao Shi, a beautiful and well-rounded woman stood there. The weakness and fear on her face had already turned into coldness at this moment. In her hand was a small and slender bamboo tube. She aimed at Xiao Shi and shot out three long silver needles.
This was originally a special kind of sleeve arrow. It was very powerful. As long as it was used properly, even ordinary people could use it to kill Martial Entry-Level martial artists!
After all, the long needles in the bamboo tube were sharp weapons used to kill Martial Entry-Level martial artists. They could easily pierce through the bodies of Martial Entry-Level martial artists.
Coupled with the lethal poison of the needle tip, it could instantly kill most Martial Entry-Level martial artists.
In an instant, the three silver needles had already arrived in front of Xiao Shi. It pierced through Xiao Shi's back and out of his chest! It shot into the ground in front of Xiao Shi and sank into the ground, creating three holes in the ground.
The beautiful woman's lips curled into a cold smile. If it was when she was first abducted, she would have wanted someone to save her.
But now, she did not want to leave this place at all!
In the past three years, she had truly experienced the joy of being a woman. This was something she had never experienced from her previous husband.
She loved her life as it was and enjoyed it.
Although Xu Feng was a bandit chief, he was handsome and powerful. He took good care of her. He was much better than her former husband. Even if he chased her away now, she would not leave.
"No one can ruin my happiness!" The beautiful woman's eyes were filled with ruthlessness. She was even more pleased with herself. She believed that the night patroller in front of her would definitely not expect her to attack at this time.
But the smile on her face froze when she saw that Xiao Shi, whose body had been pierced by the long needles, did not fall to the ground or bleed, instead, his entire body gradually dissipated.
She had shot a shadow left behind by Xiao Shi's high-speed movement.
"No… Impossible!!" The beautiful woman exclaimed in disbelief.
How did he know that she would attack?? There was no reason! Impossible!
Xu Feng, who was sitting on the ground, was equally shocked. He knew better than the beautiful woman that Xiao Shi didn't dodge because he sensed danger. Instead, the moment the beautiful woman picked up the bamboo tube, he was already prepared to dodge. It was as if he had eyes on his back and could see everything the person behind him did.
Whoosh!
Xiao Shi's figure flashed and slowly solidified behind the beautiful woman. A cold light flashed in his eyes.
From the moment he came to this courtyard and didn't see any traps, he had a question in his heart.
How did the previous night patrollers… fail?
Since there were no traps in this courtyard, it should not be difficult for them to save her from here. But everyone failed.
This was strange.
Until he saw this beautiful woman.
The moment he saw the beautiful woman, or rather, the clothes she was wearing, Xiao Shi had a guess. As a woman who had been forcibly taken into the village, if she wanted to escape from her misery, why would she wear such a sexy see-through outfit?
Although Xiao Shi was not completely sure, he was still on guard. Hence, the moment he entered the room, he had left a Blood Qi Mark on this beautiful woman. He wanted to ensure that every move of the other party was under his control.
Even though he had never felt that this woman had the ability to hurt him, the caution in his personality still made him not hesitate to reduce his blood and qi to control this woman's every move.
Now that this woman had taken action, Xiao Shi's guess was completely confirmed.
"You were the one who killed those night patrollers in the past, right?" A cold voice came from behind, causing the beautiful woman to tremble.
"The two of you colluded and deliberately left a spy behind to lure in night patrollers one after another and kill them. Pity those night patrollers. They didn't realize until they died that… the target they had to rescue during the mission was the greatest danger!"
Xiao Shi stared at the beautiful woman's graceful back, but he recalled the look of the boss of Hui Hai Restaurant when he begged him bitterly. This made him hate the woman in front of him even more.
"In order to save you, your husband gave up all his assets in the past three years, but you used him."
The beautiful woman's body trembled even more intensely. The cold killing intent behind her and the last trace of guilt she had for her husband made her unable to bear it at this moment. She cried out. "Enough! I'm only pursuing the happiness I want. What did I do wrong! I used to think that I was very happy, but after coming here, I finally know what true happiness is!
"I don't want to go back to my old life. I hate that life! I just want to live a better life. What did I do wrong?! I—"
Bang!
Xiao Shi's palm landed on her neck. He did not want to listen to her nonsense anymore.
"You make me sick." He said coldly.
There was nothing wrong with pursuing the happiness one wanted.
However, by betraying and hurting the person who loved her deeply, using the other party and making the other party go bankrupt and constantly finding people to save her, using this method to hunt down the night patrollers who came to save her and profit.
Such a person's death was not worth pitying! If not for the fact that this woman was related to his mission, he would have to bring her back alive to settle the mission. The slap just now was not as simple as knocking her out.
However, based on the crime of colluding with the chief to kill the night patrollers, he believed that after bringing her back, she would not have a chance to live.
"That's good. Killing such a person will only dirty my hands."
Xiao Shi turned around and looked at Xu Feng, who had fallen to the ground and could no longer resist.
Killing intent flickered.
