Chapter 31: Giving the Order to Kill

The night wind blew away the ashes on the ground, and the original fence wall was now in tatters, Lei Wuchen looked at the big trees that were still burning in the distance, the firelight kept swaying in the wind, Lei Wuchen couldn't figure out what the black-robed man was doing, was it to warn them, or was he threatening them not to meddle?

The lights were lit up in the house, and the original roar woke up several people who were asleep, and Ding Xiao rushed out first, looking at the broken fence and the burning trees in the distance, looking a little frightened.

Ding Xiao walked to the wall, squatted down, pinched the ashes on the ground with his hands, and turned around and asked, "What happened?"

Lei Wuchen glanced at Qing'er who was walking over, and didn't know how to answer, if it was said that this was done by the black-robed man, it would definitely increase the fear in their hearts, but if they didn't say anything, how could they explain the scene in front of them.

"Senior brother is practicing in the courtyard, it was I who accidentally suddenly appeared behind the senior brother, which made the senior brother miss, fortunately I reacted in time and hid, but the courtyard wall was destroyed", Lei Wuchen smiled embarrassedly and made it up.

Li Qing understood what Lei Wuchen meant, and echoed: "It's okay, go back to sleep."

"Lei Wuchen, you said that when Senior Brother was practicing, you should let Senior Brother beat you to cripple, see if you are still honest", Qing'er blamed.

"It's all my fault, it's not early, let's go back to sleep"

Ding Xiao dispersed the ashes in his hand, and it could be seen from the expressions of Lei Wuchen and the others that this matter was not as simple as they said, but since they chose to hide it, it meant that they didn't want to let themselves know, so they didn't ask any more, turned around and walked towards the house.

After the lights were turned off in the room, Lei Wuchen asked, "Senior brother, do you have any way to solve the situation in front of you?"

Li Qing knew what Lei Wuchen meant by asking this, but he didn't know how to answer, although the black-robed man who appeared tonight was not as high as his own cultivation, but if he was not there, Lei Wuchen would not have any cultivation now, only Ding Xiao and Qing'er were far from his opponents, and he didn't know his details yet, and the best way now was to wait for the black-robed man to appear again.

Lei Wuchen seemed to guess Li Qing's thoughts, so he said: "The black-robed man is very familiar with the surroundings of Monkey Forest Mountain, which means that he is not just here, from the moment we came here, he was already within his surveillance range, and he didn't do anything to us, not because he was afraid of Senior Brother."

Hearing Lei Wuchen's words, Li Qing's expression changed slightly, and he asked, "Does he have other purposes?"

"If the black-robed man wants to kill us, he can do it during the day when Ding Xiao and I are on the way to the town, but he doesn't, and I secretly went to Wu Chang'an's house tonight, but he still hasn't done it, which means that there must be other reasons for this", Lei Wuchen looked around and speculated.

"You mean, someone ordered him behind the black-robed man's back?"

"It cannot be ruled out that the man in the black robe did it on orders, just now the man in the black robe killed me when he didn't notice your existence, which means that before then, the person behind him had given us a killing order", Lei Wuchen said in a low voice.

Li Qing's eyes showed a hint of doubt, and said: "We have only been here for a short day, and we don't know the situation here, if we suddenly give an order to kill, why did it start?"

"Night Spirit Gate", Lei Wuchen continued: "Today I went to the town with Ding Xiao, if we were under the surveillance of the black-robed man, we would definitely know that I had paid special attention to the Night Spirit Gate, and the only reason that could make them give the order to kill was this one reason."

"You don't have a qi source foundation in your body now, and now you are an ordinary person, how can they care about your child", Li Qing was puzzled.

"Because of you, Senior Brother", Lei Wuchen affirmed, "We are not enough to make them panic, what makes them afraid is the existence of you, Senior Brother, maybe what really changed them was the incident that happened at noon"

"What's the matter?", Li Qing asked.

"On our way back, we encountered a golden night monkey beast"

"Golden Night Monkey Beast?", Li Qing frowned slightly and repeated in a low voice.

"Yes, although it is small, it makes the night monkey beasts dare to come out to look for it during the day, which is enough to prove its status in the group, and the reason why the black-robed men are murderous is because this group of night monkey beasts did not attack us, but turned and left"

After listening to Lei Wuchen's words, Li Qing was puzzled: "Last night, I was with the night monkey, and I could feel their extreme anger towards people, how could I leave so easily when I met you?"

"So, that's why the men in black robes are ready to do something to us, because they want to see people and night monkeys kill each other, not get along, maybe this never happened before we came, and they won't allow it to happen again, therefore, they want to deal with us"

Li Qing held the sword in his hand, his face was grim, staring at the dark mountains and forests in the distance, the black-robed man was not afraid of him, but they were in the dark, if he was a little careless, Lei Wuchen and they would definitely be in danger, and since the incident in the Lei family, Mo Han had never appeared, which was the biggest worry in Li Qing's heart.

"Senior brother, don't worry, although I don't know what grievances Mo Hanyi had with you before, but now at least he won't attack us", Lei Wuchen said indifferently.

"Why do you say that?", Lei Wuchen could always guess his thoughts, which surprised Li Qing very much.

"The situation on my body, my father has already told me, the fire bone element is a toxin specially developed for the power of the phoenix, although I have used it, but I have no qi source at that time, and I can no longer practice, and Mo Hanyi is still poisoning me, indicating that his purpose is to let us get out of the Lei family, and only when we get out of Jiuzhou City can we achieve his purpose", Lei Wuchen guessed.

"I had a grudge with Mo Hanyi, but I didn't involve you, I involved you, and he was regularly instructed by others"

"That's right, it's someone behind him that doesn't make a move on us easily, but he can temporarily abandon the personal grievances between you because of the order, which means that the person behind him has a great favor to him, or the person behind him has an extremely high cultivation level, and he has to obey", Lei Wuchen analyzed.

"It seems that only by solving the matter in front of you can we know what Mo Hanyi's purpose is"

"Except for Mo Hanyi, I don't think the black-robed man will let us leave easily, but with Senior Brother here, we didn't want to leave so easily", Lei Wuchen stretched his waist and said.

Li Qing looked back at Lei Wuchen, who had a relaxed expression, he had no cultivation now, and in the face of the black-robed man, he could still be so relaxed at any time, maybe it was not because of his own existence, but because of the strength of his heart.

"Senior brother, go to bed early, we have something to do tomorrow", Lei Wuchen looked at the figure flashing in the darkness and said.
