Chapter 246: The Master of Shadows

If it weren't for Long Xiaoman's scolding, I guess I would have gone farther and farther.

She's right, what's the reason for what I'm doing now? And what am I doing now?

At that time, when I decided to use that kind of vicious method to kill Puda, what I thought about the most was indeed how to make our plan go smoothly and how to take Guizhou with the least loss.

I knew very well that even if I didn't do that, in another way, Guizhou would still be annexed by us after all, but that would take more time, and I couldn't wait, all I was thinking about at that time was how to expand, even at the cost of killing thousands of living people to speed up my plan.

I am particularly disgusted with people like Tang Qi and Amu, and I feel that these people are ruthless and unscrupulous, but unconsciously, I have become the same person as them, what is the difference between me doing this and these people who are disgusted by me?

So I have to pay for what I did.

At the beginning, I personally set a rule for the Tianxuan Sect, those who kill and surrender are severely punished, and those who do unkind and unrighteous things are severely punished.

Now I have both.

I was naked, and I ordered the people of the Law Enforcement Hall to tie me to a thick pillar, and below me were dozens of major high-ranking generals of the Tianxuan Sect.

Long Xiaoman looked at me, "Did you really decide to do this?" ”

I nodded, "Let's do it, the rules I set myself, I can't break them myself, there are no privileges in the Tianxuan Sect, just do what you want!" ”

Long Xiaoman nodded, twisted his head to the side, gritted his teeth and said, "Do it!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the two members of the Law Enforcement Hall each held a black rattan whip as thick as a thumb and whipped it towards my body.

The Black Vine Whip is a special extracorporeal weapon, and its power is similar to that of my original Shura Whip, and every whip that is whipped on me is a great pain.

Syllable! Syllable! Syllable!

After 3,600 lashes, there is no good place on my body, and even if these two law enforcers have saved me face, they have not slapped my face, otherwise I would have to be completely unrecognizable.

I gritted my teeth during the whole process, but I didn't say a word, in fact, breaking the rules and being willing to be punished is only one of them, I want to use this pain to teach myself a lesson, so that I can firmly remember what the original intention of everything I am doing now is.

Actually, I'm more worried than Long Xiaoman that I'm really going to be a disaster in the future.

After this turmoil, it also played a certain positive role, and no one in the entire Tianxuan Sect dared to violate the rules.

Long Xiaoman stayed by my side almost every day to take care of me, and shed a lot of tears when he looked at the injuries on my body.

"Xiaoman, in fact, I have a sentence that I have wanted to tell you for a long time, but I have never had a suitable opportunity."

I was lying on the bed, and Long Xiaoman sat on the side and carefully medicated me.

"Say it."

"If one day, the people around me are threatened, the only choice is to make the world chaotic, so that the whole world is in dire straits, you say, when the time comes, how should I choose?"

"That's not going to work either!"

After Long Xiaoman helped me finish taking the medicine, he carefully took a blanket and put it on me, looked at me and said seriously, "No matter what happens, even if it's for me, you are not allowed to do that kind of thing." ”

I couldn't help but smile when I looked at Long Xiaoman's serious appearance, in fact, I have asked myself this question countless times, and I already have an answer, but I can only hold this answer in my heart, and I can't tell Long Xiaoman.

The defeat in Guizhou made the Shenmu Society, which was already mired in a quagmire, even worse, and Amu's cruelty and tyranny aroused the public indignation of the entire occult world, and there were large and small occult organizations fighting against the Shenmu Society all over the country.

Amu is looking forward to putting out fires everywhere, so he has no time to take care of the affairs with Guizhou for the time being, which is equivalent to giving us enough time to do a good defense, and by the time he comes to his senses, Guizhou is no longer so easy to deal with.

At the same time, during this period of time in the occult world, another unbelievable thing happened that caused a sensation in the entire occult world.

The mysterious Kunlun Sword Saint, who is said to be able to cut off the Yangtze River with a single sword, is dead!

The most surprising thing, judging from the scars on the corpse of the Sword Master, he was actually killed by the sword he was best at!

This proves that there is a figure in the occult world who is above the sword master in swordsmanship!

Immediately afterwards, an even more exciting news came at the same time, the most legendary Zhu Yunzhong of Zhongnan Mountain was also killed, and the cause of death was also blocked by someone's sword!

Sword Saint and Zhu Yunzhong, they are both figures like Taishan Beidou in the occult world, although they are low-key, their strength is recognized, at least above Amu.

Especially Zhu Yunzhong, the old gentleman at the gate of hell once told us that if we encounter difficulties, we will go to Kunlun Mountain to find Zhu Yunzhong and worship him as a teacher.

For various reasons, this matter was put aside later, but I didn't expect him to die under someone else's sword!

No one knows who the person who can seal the throat of the Kunlun Mountain Sword Saint and Zhu Yunzhong of Zhongnan Mountain with a sword, it stands to reason that if he does such a big thing, he should take the initiative to leave his mark and make a name for himself.

But the murderer did not leave any trace at the scene.

The occult world suddenly popped up with such a mysterious figure against the sky, causing all major and small occult organizations, including the Shenmu Society, to temporarily stop all actions, because that person didn't know whether he was friend or foe, and if he accidentally provoked this person, the consequences would be absolutely unimaginable.

The Sword Saint and Zhu Yunzhong are both legendary characters, we have never seen them, let alone have any friendships, so we will only listen to this matter as a story.

However, I found that there is something not quite right with Ying these days, under Hou Xiaofei's careful care, Ying's heart that has been frozen into frost has gradually melted, and it is gradually not so different from us, and it will not sit alone in the back garden in the middle of the night in a daze.

Recently, however, I stumbled upon Ying often running to the back garden alone, and once I even saw her wiping her tears in secret.

Shadow's experience is distressing, all of us take special care of her on weekdays, looking at her like this, we are all anxious for her, but it's not good to ask directly, knowing Shadow's character, if she doesn't say it, we ask in vain, maybe it will make her even sadder.

Finally, at dinner time, Ying saw that we were all concerned about her, put vegetables in her bowl, and helped her serve the meal, she slowly opened her mouth, "Thank you for taking care of me for such a long time, I have never been taken care of like this since that incident in my family." ”

"At first I thought you were just trying to take advantage of me, but then I found out that each of you is very strong, and I don't matter to you, and I have no value to use. I have also changed a lot of views in the past, I used to think that there will be no real good people in this world, the so-called good people, just use each other. ”

"What do you say?"

Hou Xiaofei held He Shouwu in the bowl of the shadow, and said, "Didn't you say it earlier, this is your home, we are all your family, of course, I may be a little different, I treat you a little bit better than them, hehe." ”

It can be seen that under Hou Xiaofei's sincerity, Ying already has some good feelings for him, but the relationship between the two has not yet been finally established.

Hou Xiaofei made such a joke, Ying didn't care, smiled, and said, "Xiaofei, I understand your intentions for me, but you don't really understand what kind of person I am, when you understand me thoroughly, I don't think you will be so good to me." ”

"Impossible!"

Hou Xiaofei said firmly, "I don't care who you are, even if it's ......"

"Xiaofei, listen to me first, okay?"

Ying interrupted Hou Xiaofei, glanced at us, and said slowly, "Don't you want to know where my ability comes from?" Well, I'm not going to hide it, I'll tell you now. ”

"After the catastrophe that devastated my family, I wandered the streets alone, snatching food from wild dogs, rummaging through the garbage heaps, and the hardest thing was the winter, and on several occasions I almost froze to death on the street."

"Until I was twelve, the winter was so cold that I hadn't found anything to eat for days, and I was huddled in a corner shivering, and I thought I wouldn't make it through. Just when I was almost desperate, a man appeared in front of me. ”

Saying this, Shadow's eyes flashed with sadness, "That man is in rags, and he looks like a beggar, just like me. It's just that he used endless money to take me to eat delicious food and buy me a lot of clothes. ”

"I tried to make him a great benefactor at that time, he took me to a mountain, and then taught me skills, taught me how to practice occult arts, taught me a fluctuating supreme body method, and I began to become stronger day by day."

As he spoke, Shadow paused, looked at us and asked, "But I'm always thinking about how to kill him, do you know why?" ”

I was a little puzzled when I heard this, that man gave him food and drink, and also taught him a skill, how could Ying want to kill him?

Shadow's eyes suddenly flashed with murderous intent, "Because what he did to me requires me to pay a price, and that price is my body!" ”

Hearing this, we were collectively stunned.

Ying then gritted his teeth and said, "He tortured me every day in different ways, and at first he lied to me that it was part of his cultivation. Later, when I grew up and gradually understood why, he began to get worse, and if I resisted, I would be beaten badly. ”

"Then why don't you run!" I couldn't help but ask.

Shadow glanced at me, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a sneer, "I can't run, because I have a deep blood feud, and I must be strong." I have not forgotten the hatred of extermination, and all the time in my mind is the scene I saw when I hid in the cabinet. ”

"In order to be able to take revenge, I can pay any price, in order to get more true inheritance, I began to take the initiative to flatter that person, he was very happy, and taught me more skills. I had told her to avenge me, but he refused to do so and abused me in the most vicious terms. ”

"As I grew up day by day and my cultivation improved day by day, I finally couldn't hold back the flame of revenge in my heart, and secretly ran down the mountain alone to investigate around, and then I met you."

After Hou Xiaofei listened, he slammed his fist on the table, "Who is that person, you tell me, I'll go and break him into pieces now!" ”

"No, he's dead."

Shadow sighed lightly, "The person who taught me all the skills, but also insulted me in every way, has a nickname, called the Sword Master!" ”
