Chapter 355: The Blade Strikes Back
Chapter 355: The Blade Strikes Back
When Baili Pang'er heard Wu Hen's words, his whole body trembled, and his eyes glanced back and forth between Wu Hen and Baili Xin'er.
There was a suppressed tension in the air, as if it was about to explode.
Baili Xin'er was lying on the ground, his face pale, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, but his eyes were still full of hostility.
"You...you really want me to do this?"
Baili Fatty's voice trembled slightly, but he did not hesitate for too long.
Suddenly, he tightly grasped the spear in his hand and walked towards Baili Xin'er with firm steps.
Baili Xin'er saw this scene and a sneer appeared on his face.
He struggled hard and moved back a few inches, but still couldn't escape Baili Pang'er's approach.
He gasped for breath, his voice filled with pride: "Fatty, you don't really want to kill me, do you?"
"We are brothers, we have been friends for so many years. You won't send me to hell just because of my momentary evil deeds, right?"
Baili Pang'er's brows were furrowed, and the tip of his gun was hovering in front of Baili Xin'er's throat, so close that he could almost feel the other's breath.
The air around them seemed to freeze, with only the sounds of Baili Pang'er's breathing and Baili Xin'er's panting echoing in their ears.
"brother?"
Baili Fatty's voice was low and filled with anger.
"You sold out the Night's Watch and betrayed us all for your own selfish gain! How dare you mention brothers?"
Baili Xin'er's mouth twitched, his eyes calmed down, and he seemed to be analyzing something: "Fatty, calm down."
"If you kill me, not only will you be charged with murder, but you will also implicate the Night's Watch and may even cause a greater conflict. Have you thought this through?"
Baili Pang'er looked down at the spear in his hand, then looked up at Wu Hen, struggling in his heart.
"Fatty, you can't do this!"
Zuo Qing'er's voice suddenly came, with a warning in her eyes, but it was too late.
Baili Pang'er had already made up his mind, but he suddenly remembered Zuo Qing'er's words and frowned.
"Fatty, don't be impulsive!"
Wu Hen's voice was filled with anxiety, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes.
"Killing him may relieve your hatred temporarily, but can you really bear the consequences?"
Baili Pang'er's fingers trembled slightly, and he finally slowly put down the spear.
He took a deep breath, looked up at Wu Hen and Zuo Qing'er, and said in a firm and resolute tone: "I can't implicate everyone..."
At this moment, a black shadow suddenly fell from the sky, and the long sword in his hand stabbed towards Baili Xin'er at a rapid speed.
Before Baili Pang'er and the others could react, Baili Xin'er was pierced through the heart by a sword, bleeding like a fountain, and fell to the ground.
The air was filled with a strong smell of blood, and everyone was staring at the scene in amazement.
"Qingzhu, you..."
Zuo Qing'er's voice was filled with shock and anger, but Shen Qingzhu had already turned around and prepared to leave.
“Some things have to be done by someone.”
Shen Qingzhu's voice was calm and firm, and then she disappeared into the night, leaving behind only astonishment and confusion.
Fatty Baili lowered his spear dejectedly and let out a heavy breath: "I can't... implicate everyone..."
Seeing this, Baili Xin'er showed a smug sneer on his pale face, as if mocking Baili Pang'er's stupidity and cowardice.
At this moment, a black shadow fell from the sky like a ghost, as fast as lightning!
Before everyone could react, they heard a "Puchi" sound, and a pitch-black soul-breaking knife pierced through Baili Xin'er's heart from behind!
The tip of the knife was stained with blood, dripping onto the ground, making a "tapping" sound, like the knell of death.
Fatty Baili widened his eyes, and the spear in his hand fell to the ground with a clang. He looked at everything happening in front of him in disbelief.
Shen Qingzhu slowly drew out the Soul-Breaking Sword, and Baili Xin'er's body fell limply to the ground.
The ground was stained red with blood, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood, which was nauseating.
Shen Qingzhu had no expression on his face and snapped his fingers lightly.
With a "whoosh" sound, a ball of dark blue flame appeared out of nowhere and instantly devoured Baili Xin'er's body, turning it into ashes.
The whole process was clean and neat, without any drag, as if it was just a trivial matter.
When Lin Qiye and Wu Hen saw Shen Qingzhu, their faces were filled with shock.
Wu Hen couldn't help but curse: "Fuck! This girl is too cruel!"
Lin Qiye had a serious expression on his face, as if he was thinking about something.
Shen Qingzhu glanced at everyone coldly, and said in a cold tone: "Fatty Baili, I have returned your favor."
After Shen Qingzhu finished speaking, he turned and walked towards the edge of the tall building...
Before Shen Qingzhu finished speaking, he jumped off the edge of the tall building.
The night wind howled, lifting the corners of her clothes, like a black butterfly, floating towards the endless abyss.
Fatty Baili rushed to the window, stuck his head out and looked down, only to see a blurry black dot that quickly disappeared into the night.
He looked dejected and muttered to himself, "She...just left like that?"
Seeing this, Zuo Qing'er was furious and shouted, "We can't let her get away! She is a remnant of the Ancient God Church and must be eliminated!"
After saying that, he was about to chase after him.
"Wait!" Lin Qiye and Wu Hen blocked her way at the same time.
Baili Pang'er also came to his senses and stood in front of Zuo Qing'er.
His tone was firm: "Captain Zuo, Miss Qingzhu has already left. There is no need for us to chase her."
Zuo Qing'er's eyes widened in anger as she pointed at the three of them and sternly shouted, "Are you crazy? She's from the Ancient God Church! Letting a tiger go back into the mountains will only bring endless trouble!"
Wu Hen spread his hands and said innocently, "Hey, Captain Zuo, don't be so excited."
"The girl has already jumped off the building, and she must have fallen pretty hard. Let's not kill her, okay?"
He tried to lighten the mood by acting glib.
Lin Qiye also said in a deep voice: "Captain Zuo, it's too late to chase now. Besides, we have more important things to do."
Zuo Qing'er was so angry that she was shaking all over, but looking at the determined eyes of the three people, she finally gave up the pursuit.
She glared at them fiercely and walked away.
Seeing Zuo Qing'er leave, Wu Hen breathed a sigh of relief and slumped down on the ground.
He said weakly, "Oh, I'm so tired. This woman is even more difficult to deal with than the boss."
As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes went dark and he passed out.
"Wu Hen!" Fatty Baili exclaimed and hurried forward to catch him.
He looked at the unconscious Wu Hen,
Suddenly, Zuo Qing'er's footsteps stopped...
Then, slowly turned around...
Zuo Qing'er paused and stood still, as if there were two little people fighting in her heart.
One said, "Chase! We must chase! These are the remnants of the Ancient God Church!"
Another said: "Forget it, he has already jumped off the building and his life or death is unknown. If we continue to chase him, we will look so petty."
Finally, she sighed, turned around and walked back.
Looking at the unconscious Wu Hen, she thought that although this boy was not very reasonable, he was quite loyal at the critical moment.
At the same time, Shen Qingzhu landed steadily in the air, as light as a feather.
She dusted herself off and a barely perceptible smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"Report to the commander, mission accomplished." She said to the air.
"Well done, Qingzhu."
A deep voice came from the shadows, and the figure of Jiu Xidi slowly emerged.
"You are so bold to assassinate Baili Xin'er."
"I just did what I had to do."
Shen Qingzhu's tone was calm, as if he had just completed a trivial task.
"Your performance was outstanding. When you return this time, perhaps I can consider promoting you to a higher position."
Jiu Xidi's tone was filled with admiration. "What are your plans next?"
Shen Qingzhu pondered for a moment and said, "I want to go to Guangzhou and Shenzhen."
"Guangshen?" Jiu Xidi was slightly stunned. "What are we going there for?"
Shen Qingzhu didn't answer, but smiled mysteriously: "I heard that the morning tea there is good."
"Oh, whatever you want." Jiu Xidi didn't ask any further questions, turned around and disappeared into the night.
Shen Qingzhu looked at the direction he left.
