Chapter 9: The Lonely Fellow

Some people, even if they have faded out of people's sight, will still be talked about around him.

In the past three months, there have been several versions of the rumors about Qi Kai, some say that he has been stabbed down the Broken Soul Cliff by the black shadow of the Wuji Hall and buried at the bottom of the cliff; some say that he was rescued by a master outside the world, and maybe he has learned an unfathomable magic or martial art; some people say that in fact, he is not dead at all, and he fell off the Broken Soul Cliff on his own intention, in order to make the Wuji Hall think that he is dead, so that he can live incognito and live a few years at large

But what is strange is that Wuji Hall has rarely remained silent this time, and has not released any rumors about Qi Kai, as if Qi Kai's life and death have nothing to do with them.

What's even more strange is that Wuji Palace's attitude towards Chang Youde didn't kill him.

It's just that Chang Youde, who had been generous three months ago, is now as depressed as the beggars he once gave alms.

Friends who used to call him brothers and sisters now have to show disdain when they see him, and they have their own set of arguments: We disdain to be in the company of Chang Youde, a villain who betrays his friends in exchange for money.

Chang Youde just smiled every time, but didn't speak. He now understands what Qi Kai once said: A person, only when he is in trouble, can he see the essence of the people around him.

Although he is very depressed now, he feels more stable than before.

The sky was clear and the sun was dazzling, so Chang Youde had no choice but to bow his head and shrink weakly in the shadow of the corner of the city wall, but his heart recalled all the glory of the past.

Suddenly, a pair of shoes appeared in his sight, but he did not raise his head, only symbolically raised his hand.

The owner of the shoe neither moved nor gave money, but just stood there quietly.

Chang Youde only glanced at it, but his heart suddenly beat violently: Could it be that he is back?

Suddenly, his heart slowly cooled again: didn't he read the words I gave him, or did he not understand what I meant?

Chang Youde tightened the torn and black sour quilt wrapped around his body, buried his head in the quilt, and said, "If you don't have any money, let's go." ”

Although his eyes were blindfolded, one pair of ears kept an eye on the movement of the shoes.

But after a long time, the shoes still didn't move.

He suddenly lifted the quilt, turned his face up, and squinted at the owner of the shoes, ready to scold.

But he froze.

In the bright sunlight, this man's eyes were even brighter than the sun, he was a young man who was neither handsome nor ugly, and his eyes were now full of warm smiles looking at him.

He couldn't put it anymore, and retracted it weakly, and said, "You're not afraid that I will betray you again?"

The man suddenly winked at him, and said with a smile: "It turns out that Chang Dagongzi has now been reduced to the point of being a beggar. ”

Chang Youde moved his body and said, "It's too late for you to leave now, don't bother me." ”

The man laughed and said, "Since I'm back, I'm not going to leave again." ”

Chang Youde sat up suddenly and exclaimed, "You're not leaving?"

The passers-by suddenly heard a loud shout, thinking that someone had quarreled, and looked over, and when they saw the young man standing, they walked away as if they had seen a ghost.

The young man looked at the passers-by who left in a panic and said with a smile: "Now, I am afraid that I will not be able to leave if I want to." ”

Chang Youde suddenly kicked the young man in the abdomen, and at the same time stood up.

The boy dodged the kick with a slight leap backwards.

The young man was suddenly attacked, but he was not angry, but still smiled and said, "You don't look like a beggar who is so hungry that you only have half a life left." ”

Chang Youde said in a low voice: "It's still too late to leave." ”

The young man said leisurely: "It's too late"

Sure enough, before his words fell, more than a dozen people in black appeared at both ends of the originally empty and bright street.

The sun is harsh, but the black clothes are even more dazzling.

The leader was a square-faced middle-aged man, and he heard his laughter from a distance: "I have heard for a long time that 'young man who is not doing business' has a good mind, and he still has the courage to enter the city alone at this moment, fortunately, fortunately." ”

He was smiling, but there was no smile on his face.

Qi Kai was surrounded by more than a dozen black-clothed people, but there was no trace of fear on his face, and he even smiled: "As soon as Xia entered Shouhe City, the young master of the Wuji Palace, 'Dongfang Hao', led the Black Shadow Guard to greet him in person, which really flattered the younger generation. ”

Dongfang Hao said: "Yes, not only me, but even the lord wants to see you very much, I don't know if Your Excellency will appreciate the light and move to the Wuji Palace." ”

Qi Kai said: "There are two things to do when I come back this time. ”

Dongfang Hao said: "Oh?"

Qi Kai said lightly: "I must know a little bit about the 'friendship' with my friend, the first thing is to 'thank you' my friend, if it weren't for him, I'm afraid I wouldn't have had a chance to meet the Black Shadow Guard again three months ago." ”

Dongfang Hao said: "Then the second thing must be related to the Wuji Palace." ”

Qi Kai said: "Not bad. ”

Dongfang Hao smiled and said, "It seems that the 'friendship' between the two is really deep, and his affairs are even more important than the affairs of the Wuji Palace." ”

Qi Kai said: "Thank you for the praise, I hope that the young master of the East can make it convenient." ”

Dongfang Hao said: "Since the two of you are friends, and your friend also happened to be a friend of the Wuji Hall before, why don't you two enjoy the humble house together?"

Qi Kai smiled faintly: "I'm afraid that something is wrong." ”

Dongfang Haoyou's face changed, and he said, "Oh, what's wrong?"

Qi Kai said: "If we enter the Wuji Palace, but no one comes out again, won't the people of the world laugh at me Qi Kai and a beggar who have no victory or defeat, and die together?"

Dongfang Hao said: "Okay, I'll make it convenient, you can do it!"

Qi Kai casually looked around and said, "I have a problem, I never like to do things in crowded places. ”

Dongfang Hao frowned and said, "You want to leave?"

Qi Kai nodded and said, "Yes, I think the woods outside the city are a good place." ”

Dongfang Hao sneered: "In that case, let's put your friend's advance first." ”

With a wave of his hand, more than a dozen black-clothed people stepped forward in unison and surrounded Qi Kai and Chang Youde.

Qi Kai shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Is this the hospitality of the Wuji Palace?"

Dongfang Hao snorted coldly and said, "I want to persuade with good words, but you don't appreciate it, so I have to use force!"

Qi Kai said: "If there are only a dozen black shadow guards, I'm afraid it won't be enough." ”

Dongfang Hao said: "What if you add me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, more than a dozen men in black suddenly moved.

More than a dozen narrow swords that shone with cold light stabbed at the night sky like stars in the night sky.

Qi opened his left hand and grabbed Chang Youde's shoulder, lifted it up, and his figure jumped high, but he said: "It's better for others not to interfere in the affairs of me and my friends." ”

Dongfang Hao didn't speak, but he also walked over quickly, and the speed of more than a dozen narrow swords suddenly accelerated.

I saw Qi Kai's body suddenly spin up, and the corner of Dongfang Hao's mouth pulled out a sneer: "Whirlwind, hmph, I'll see what you're capable of today!"

The wind blades in the sky fell like a downpour, falling on more than a dozen Black Shadow Guards and Dongfang Hao.

But they seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and quickly released their primordial power, condensing into a circular light shield to protect their bodies.

The sound of clanging is like a pearl falling on a jade plate, endlessly.

More than a dozen narrow swords came slowly, and then stabbed at Qi in unison.

Qi Kai was in mid-air, pushed Chang Youde with a palm, and said, "You can only die in my hands!"

At this moment of distraction, more than a dozen narrow swords have already stabbed in!

Dongfang Hao saw this scene, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, in his opinion, even if Qi Kai put on his wings, he couldn't fly.

But he suddenly found that Qi Kai's body was glowing with yellow light, and a round light mask instantly enveloped him inside.

More than a dozen fast swords struck the yellow light mask, and the dull sound of tinkling was one piece.

Dongfang Hao only then remembered that the other party was still a fifth-order magician, but how many attacks could the fifth-order magic cover withstand?

Unexpectedly, after the last sword pierced the light mask, the light mask broke in response, revealing the people inside.

Barely at any interval, the next sword stabbed in.

Dongfang Hao looked at the Black Shadow Guard with satisfaction, this guard was trained by him personally, and he naturally knew their strength very well.

Who knew that before this sword stabbed Qi Kai's body, Qi Kai's body suddenly disappeared.

That's right, it's gone!

Dongfang Hao stared, searching for Qi Kai's traces, and when he saw Qi Kai, he had already appeared outside the encirclement of the Black Shadow Guard!

He looked at Qi Kai in shock and muttered, "It's actually teleportation?"

I heard a sudden shout in the air: "Chop!"

A transparent giant sword visible to the naked eye slashed at the Black Shadow Guard.

After all, the Black Shadow Guard was well-trained, and he immediately turned around and blocked the sword in front of him.

The huge green sword swept over more than a dozen swords like a withering and decaying, and even the sword and the people were cut together!

Suddenly it rained in the sky, and it rained blood!

More than 20 bodies slammed heavily on the spotless bluestone slab, like a stone smashing heavily on Dongfang Hao's heart.

Cyan slate, bright red blood.

Dongfang Hao looked at these half-cut corpses with tears in his eyes, and finally couldn't help but look up to the sky and shout: "Qi Kai! If I let you die, I'm sorry for you!"

In the midst of the loud shouts, the yellow light around him flashed, and he had already rushed into the air.

In the air, Qi Kai's face was slightly pale, seeing Dongfang Hao rushing over, his figure suddenly disappeared again, and he appeared dozens of zhang away, only to hear him say in a loud voice: "Young Master Dongfang, today more than a dozen black shadow guards should be under the meeting Bo Gift, he has time in the future, and he will come to visit again!"

In the laughter, his body suddenly disappeared, appearing more than a dozen feet away, and after repeating this several times, it had turned into a streamer and disappeared on the distant horizon.

Dongfang Hao stared at more than a dozen corpses, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, he didn't expect Qi Kai's strength to skyrocket to such a terrifying level in just three months, he suddenly swelled up with fear: If Qi Kai wanted to kill me, why didn't he kill me?
