Chapter 19

I Haven’t Attacked Yet

When he said this, his appearance turned sinister.

“You’re from the Heaven Surveillance Bureau, but you took the risk to come to me that day and made a low-level mistake. Does the Heaven Surveillance Bureau accept such a fool?” Xu Bai said slowly.

Tie Suanxian fell silent.

“I thought about it carefully when I came just now. You took a huge risk and said that I would suffer a bloody calamity. You undoubtedly wanted to send me away.

“And now that we’ve met here, you’re stopping me from following her. That means you’re trying to create an opportunity for her. Am I right?” Xu Bai continued.

There were many suspicious points in Tie Suanxian’s various actions. The most suspicious point was that he actually took a huge risk to approach him at the inn.

Tie Suanxian said that he had been in the county for a long time. How could he do such an irrational thing?

Don’t even say that it was because of an occupational hazard, even a dog wouldn’t believe it.

Coupled with the fact that when they had met in the alley just now, he had hurriedly pulled him aside. This was not because he was afraid that Xu Bai would alert the enemy, but more likely because he wanted to give Yun Xiang a chance to slip away.

If Xu Bai had continued to follow her, Yun Xiang would not have been able to do anything. She would have either turned around to have an exciting battle with him or continued to stroll around.

But Tie Suanxian’s obstruction coincidentally gave Yun Xiang the opportunity.

Of course, regardless of whether his conjecture was right or wrong, the possibility of him being right was very high. He could not let it go so easily.

In his previous life, he often watched television dramas and read novels. He felt that it was very strange. The protagonist was already suspicious, yet he still wanted to find concrete evidence. Wasn’t he courting death?

You only had one life. Who would give you enough time to find evidence in reality?

Just like now, if he did not strike first and gain the upper hand, who knew what kind of scheme would await him.

Of course, it was also possible that he had made a mistake.

That would be fate.

In that case, every year during the new year, he would burn some paper money for Tie Suanxian.

If someone insisted that they couldn’t wrongly accuse someone and had to investigate thoroughly before making a move, Xu Bai would only give that person a slap in the face.

If that kind of person encountered his current situation, he might not survive three episodes after transmigrating.

Unfortunately, the sneak attack did not succeed.

It was unknown what kind of strange movement technique this Tie Suanxian knew, but he actually dodged his Ghost Head Saber with strange steps.

At this moment, Tie Suanxian didn’t say anything. It was as if he had tacitly agreed. Xu Bai heard footsteps and turned around. He saw the three black-robed men standing up. Yun Xiang’s back was still facing him as she stitched up the corpses.

“It seems that this guest is very smart.”

Yun Xiang spoke even as her back was facing Xu Bai.

Tie Suanxian walked and arrived beside Yun Xiang in the blink of an eye. He extended his hand to Yun Xiang.

“I’ve already promised you what you want to do. Now give me what I want.”

“If you help us kill him, I’ll give it to you. Don’t worry, no one in the Heaven Surveillance Bureau will know about your embezzlement.” Yun Xiang reached out and tucked the hair on her forehead behind her ear.

“You!” Tie Suanxian was stunned. Then, he pointed at Yun Xiang angrily. “How dare you say that!”

“That’s why he has to die now, because he’s already heard about you. You don’t want more people to know that a dignified official of the Heaven Surveillance Bureau has lined his own pockets, right? He has run away…” Yun Xiang smiled.

Tie Suanxian turned around and found that Xu Bai had already fled.

“You better keep your promise.”

After saying that, he chased after Xu Bai.

After Tie Suanxian left, Yun Xiang continued stitching up the corpses.

“The three of you, don’t chase. Protect me.”

She focused on every stitch and thread as if she was sewing exquisite clothes.

After a while, Yun Xiang looked up and said, “Remove it.”

The three black-robed men beside her nodded in unison. They began to move, holding knives in their hands as they cut the beggars’ corpse bit by bit.

Each body was cut in different places. Their hands, legs, and torsos were cut off. Only their heads were left.

The black-robed man handed over an organ. After Yun Xiang took it, she began to stitch it up carefully.

She took a part of each corpse as if she was making a suture monster.

Xu Bai was running in the dark street.

Behind him, Tie Suanxian approached step by step.

He seemed to be walking slowly, but with every step he took, he closed the distance between them.

Tie Suanxian’s voice came from behind him.

“Stop running. You can’t outrun me.”

Xu Bai took the time to look back.

Not far away, Tie Suanxian was gradually approaching with a confident smile on his face.

Xu Bai suddenly stopped and stood on the spot.

Tie Suanxian also stopped, maintaining a distance of ten steps from Xu Bai.

“What, you don’t dare to get close?” Xu Bai laughed.

Tie Suanxian shook his head. “I’m not that stupid to get close to a martial artist.”

“Is my life really that important?” Xu Bai asked again.

“Of course it’s important, you must die.” Tie Suanxian stabbed his banner into the ground and took out a bronze compass with his right hand.

The surrounding air became heavy.

“What a pity. It would have been better if you had followed up with a follow-up attack. A martial artist is not easy to deal with from a distance.” Tie Suanxian spoke very slowly, as if he was casually chatting.

The bronze compass emitted a burst of white light that gradually spread through his body and into the ground through his legs.

A white eight trigram appeared on the ground, flickering in and out.

Tie Suanxian placed his right hand on the compass, as if he was certain that he could defeat Xu Bai. He slowly said, “You’re only a grade martial artist, and your power is ten steps within. I might be afraid of you if your power were ten steps over. You’re already in the divination, so I’ll decide whether you live or die.”

He spoke as if victory was in his grasp.

As for what he was talking about, Xu Bai didn’t understand.

He was not a professional. He only knew that Tie Suanxian was very confident.

Within ten steps of what?

Over ten steps of what?

Xu Bai didn’t understand, but he knew that it was time to act.

Swoosh!

The wind blew, and the quiet night was broken.

Tie Suanxian was about to put his hand on the compass to change the divination on the ground, but the next moment, he raised his head and was stunned.

The sky was filled with iron beads. It was a shocking sight.

An extremely dangerous feeling swept through his heart.

“Not good!”

Two words surfaced in his mind, but it was too late.

Although the iron beads were blunt weapons, they easily pierced Tie Suanxian’s entire body through the hidden weapons technique of the Rain of Maple Leaves.

Countless bloody holes appeared. Tie Shuanxian’s eyes widened with shock and indignation.

He was very indignant!

He hadn’t even made a move yet!

How could it be so sudden!

No matter what, even making one move was good!

“You schemed against me, you weren’t planning on escaping!” Tie Suanxian said.

After thinking about it, he came to a conclusion.

He couldn’t say the rest of his words because in the moment, the Ghost Head Saber whistled over and beheaded him.

“Are all villains so talkative?” Xu Bai looked at Tie Suanxian’s corpse and thought to himself, “Speaking of which… when did I plan to run away?”
