Chapter 142 Death is approaching!
"how?"
"Could you tell me the secret of this Flying Rainbow Blade?"
Xiao Bieli looked at Zhou Tong and Chen Liu, and said calmly:
"Think carefully before you make up a story. Did I just hear that the Flying Rainbow Blade is the key to unlocking something?"
"Could it be that after all these years, you descendants of the previous dynasty haven't opened the real treasure trove?"
Zhou Tong's expression changed slightly.
He was actually planning to make something up just to appease them.
Xiao Bieli hadn't expected to overhear so much.
Chen Liu also looked at Xiao Bieli with a tense expression. Although he was also a core figure of the Great Zhou in the Central Plains, he knew less than Zhou Tong, the pride of the Zhou family.
"It really is?"
"The Great Qian Dynasty has been established for over a thousand years, and you couldn't even open a treasure vault. No wonder you were no match for the Great Qian back then!"
Xiao Bieli shook his head.
Zhou Tong's face flushed red:
"If it weren't for the Buddhist and Taoist sects and the Imperial Observatory stabbing us in the back, how could my Great Zhou have possibly been defeated?"
Xiao Bieli shook his head:
"I'm not interested in how your Great Zhou Dynasty was defeated. Just tell me what I want to know."
Chen Liu quickly said:
"Young Master Xiao, all you need to do is swear an oath..."
The sword flashed!
puff!
Chen Liu's body suddenly split open, spraying blood onto Zhou Tong, and he could no longer utter the words he had left unsaid.
[Experience +32000!]
Zhou Tong stood there, stunned, his body trembling.
They kill without a second thought!
Mr. Chen didn't say anything disrespectful just now, did he?
Even the most ruthless members of the Netherworld Cult among the Eight Demonic Sects are no more than this, right?
He is one of the most talented young people in the Zhou family. Their Great Zhou royal family has many precious resources, and he is expected to become a Celestial Being in the future, or even reach the First Grade Thunder Tribulation Realm.
He can't die here!
"I only know that the Flying Rainbow Blade is the key to unlocking the treasure, but as for where the treasure is, I have no idea," Zhou Tong quickly replied.
"Even within our Great Zhou royal family, probably not many people know this; only a few of our ancestors do."
"This time, the imperial court has sent experts to Manzhou, including Xuanjizi, the master of Tianji Valley, Eunuch Tian from Emperor Qian's side, and Ouyang Jingde!"
"They're probably here for you!"
"Young Master Xiao, please don't kill me!"
"You can leave a backup plan on me. I can be your man. If there's any news that the Great Qian Dynasty wants to deal with you in the future, I'll inform you immediately."
Xiao Bieli frowned slightly:
"I'm already a first-rank official, how could the people of the imperial court still find my position?"
Since Zhou Tong is a direct descendant of the remnants of the previous dynasty, he might know things that ordinary people don't.
Zhou Tong hurriedly said:
"According to the ancestor, the astronomical calculation technique of the Imperial Observatory contains the most ominous and evil things in the world. Anyone who gets involved in the astronomical calculation technique carries misfortune and rarely dies a good end!"
"Moreover, only those with extraordinary destinies can cultivate themselves."
"Those who practice the art of star prediction can see the direction of other people's fate, but it is difficult for them to see their own future. Moreover, every time they use it, they will consume their own luck and even lifespan."
“Since Xuanjizi calculated your location, he must have used the Blood Calculation Technique. Activating it once would consume at least a hundred years of Xuanjizi’s lifespan.”
"This time, the imperial court has probably given Xuanjizi a lot of compensation."
Xiao Bieli nodded and then asked:
"Where are you remnants of the Great Zhou Dynasty now?"
Zhou Tong:
"overseas!"
"Although the Great Qian is powerful, the overseas Jianghu is not weak either, and it is a mixed bag. If the Great Qian goes all out, it can naturally wipe out the overseas Jianghu, but the overseas Jianghu consists of islands, which are too scattered. Even if it is conquered, it will be difficult to govern, and the losses will outweigh the gains!"
Xiao Bieli:
"You just said that the imperial court, as well as the nine factions and six gangs, all have people from your Great Zhou. Which ones are your people?"
Zhou Tong did not hesitate at all:
"The only person I can contact in the imperial court is Qiu Yuan, but he has already died at your hands."
"Among the nine factions and six gangs, the Salt Gang was supported by our Great Zhou."
"I don't know about the rest!"
"Keep me alive, I'll be of great use to you!"
Since I've already said it, there's no need to hold back anymore. Compared to the interests of the Great Zhou, staying alive is more important.
Xiao Bieli shook his head:
"I'd like to spare your life too!"
"But you have no backbone, and your acting skills are terrible!"
"You're too green in front of those old bastards from your Great Zhou remnants. If they have any doubts about you, you'll definitely tell them the moment they find out that the Flying Rainbow Blade is in my hands!"
"Although having a lot of debt is not a burden, it's better for me to think about them than for them to think about me!"
"I'll leave you with a whole corpse!"
puff!
A blade of energy pierced through Zhou Tong's brow. Zhou Tong, his eyes filled with resentment, collapsed limply to the ground.
[Experience +4000!]
……
Manzhou.
Manyuan County.
Manyuan County is the most prosperous county in Manzhou. The martial arts world in Manzhou is already weak, with only a few fourth-rank grandmasters, and two of them died at the hands of Xiao Bieli.
The only two remaining fourth-rank Grandmasters in Manzhou are currently in Manyuan County.
Zuixiaolou!
The largest and most luxurious restaurant in Manyuan County.
at this time,
A large group of diners ran out of Zuixiaolou.
Inside the Drunken Cloud Tower.
Han Wuyin, who had already reached the late stage of the fifth rank, was surrounded by more than twenty martial arts practitioners. These people were all well-known figures in the martial arts world of Manzhou. Several corpses were also lying on the ground.
"Han Wuyin, your Blood Robe Tower has committed countless evils, but today you have finally fallen into our hands!"
"Heh heh, Blood Robe Tower is in dire straits itself now. I'd like to see who can save you today!"
"That's right! The Blood-Clad Tower killed my Gu Family Fortress Master. Today, we'll kill Han Wuyin first to avenge our fortress master!"
"..."
The men who spoke were passionate and eloquent, but none of them dared to make the first move.
Although Han Wuyin's identity as a Blood-Clad Tower assassin was exposed, and he was also injured,
However, Han Wuyin's clean, swift, and lightning-fast swordsmanship still posed a significant threat to them.
No one wanted to be the first to make a move.
What if something happens to me? Wouldn't that just benefit others?
Now, as long as we stall until a Grandmaster intervenes, we can easily capture Han Wuyin.
There's no need to take the risk!
"hehe!"
"It was Xiao Bieli who killed your Gu Family Fortress Master, so why don't you dare to say you want to seek revenge on Xiao Bieli?"
Han Wuyin spoke softly, a hint of bitterness still lingering on his lips.
He fled to Posuo Prefecture with his master to seek refuge, but they were pursued and besieged by the imperial court on the way. He was separated from his master and could only hide himself and secretly escape back to Manzhou.
Unexpectedly, someone still discovered the clues.
In the past few days, they have been ambushed and attacked several times, and have been seriously injured.
This time, it seems we can't escape this fate!
hiss!
Upon hearing Xiao Bieli's name, the onlookers in the martial arts world all gasped in shock.
Let alone Manzhou,
Now, probably no one in the entire martial arts world is unaware of Xiao Bieli's name!
In Shuiyun Town, he killed a first-rank expert with a single strike!
There's still a knife mark there.
Moreover, Xiao Bieli was from their Manzhou!
Many people not only did not have any ill feelings towards Xiao Bieli, but even felt proud of him.
But Gu Family Fortress, which has a blood feud with Xiao Bieli, is a different story!
I can't even sleep soundly!
"What happened to Xiao Bieli this time?"
"Is he hiding in the shadows now, too afraid to come out?"
"The imperial court's experts are searching the entire country for him!"
"..."
Xuanjizi, Eunuch Tian, and Ouyang Jingde stood at the street corner opposite Zuixiao Tower.
At this moment, Xuanjizi's face was pale, and his hair, which originally had a few strands of black, had turned completely gray.
"Right here!"
"Xiao Bieli is here, but he hasn't shown himself!"
Xuanjizi spoke softly.
Previously, in order to find Xiao Bieli's location, he used the Blood Calculation Technique, which consumed a large amount of his lifespan and blood energy.
One longevity pill simply cannot replenish it.
This time, we've really lost out!
In a shrill voice, Eunuch Tian said:
"Not in a hurry!"
"Since Han Wuyin is being surrounded and attacked, and Xiao Bieli is here, given his temperament, he certainly won't just stand by and watch Han Wuyin die!"
"The day he shows his face will be the day he dies!"
