Misty Rain of the Old Times

Chapter 316 Death Soldier
Glancing at the densely packed corpses of bandits around him, the man on the roof turned his gaze to Chen Xuan and answered with a serious expression, "You are very strong. My brothers died well. You are the greatest enemy I have ever seen in my life. But I can't sense your cultivation level. Either you are so strong that you are beyond my comprehension, or the cultivation method you practice is extremely special, which can completely conceal your cultivation aura, making you look like an ordinary person."

He paused and continued, "But you are too young, definitely no more than twenty years old. Your bone age and eyes can't deceive people, so it's just that the method you practice is special."

He spoke calmly, certain that he had guessed the truth, but he was still extremely solemn, and because of this, he was even more wary.

The man was in his forties, dressed in a purple and black satin robe, a jade belt around his waist, and a jeweled ring on his hand. Although his attire seemed simple, the clothes, jade belt, and ring all looked very valuable.

As a congenital master, it is normal that any item on his body is very valuable. However, Chen Xuan can see at a glance that this person must be extravagant and live a life of luxury. It is not that Chen Xuan has a sharp eye, but he has seen many such extravagant people when he and Gao Jingming were studying in the north a few years ago. They have many similarities and are easy to distinguish.

He didn't care about the deaths of the bandits before. He was definitely not as simple as an ordinary bandit leader. Now Chen Xuan was more certain of his guess.

His long dark blue hair was casually spread out, making him look unruly and unruly. His face was handsome yet feminine. He had heavy bags under his eyes and even dark circles. His lips were not as rosy as those of ordinary people, but pale.

Looking at Chen Xuan casually, he had an idea of ​​what was going on, but he also felt disgusted.

This man's innate cultivation strength is naturally not bad, but he is definitely used to a life of debauchery, which makes his body very weak. However, this physical weakness is caused by too much lust, and does not affect his own strength too much. If he were an ordinary person, he would probably have difficulty walking if his body was so weak.

The reason why he felt uncomfortable was because Chen Xuan thought of what the bandits on the road had said before, that their boss killed both men and women. Seeing this person in person now, it was definitely true!
Damn, this guy, when he has enjoyed a lot of things and feels bored, he wants to try something perverted. This guy is probably like that.

This kind of perversion is not caused by innate genes, but is the result of having enough fun and looking for excitement, so it is particularly disgusting.

Chen Xuan smiled and said nothing about his guess, thinking that the other party had guessed it right. Both guesses were correct. Not only was his cultivation level one major realm higher than his, but the skills he practiced were also extremely good at concealment.

There was nothing to show off. Chen Xuan also understood that his previous guess was probably correct, so this person would definitely not have a good chat with him and tell him something he wanted to know.

But it doesn’t matter. Chen Xuan also wants to see if he can pry open his mouth with his grandmaster skills.

So he said, "There are only two of us left now. Oh, yes, there are still 20 or 30 people hiding. I deliberately let them go. They are clean. I am not the kind of person who kills innocent people. Don't worry about them. No one will disturb us now. There is plenty of time. Let's take them one by one. Did you arrange the bandits on the official road? The purpose is to not let go of any passers-by, so as to confuse the public and secretly solve the target, right? Give people the illusion that we treat everyone equally?"

The other party seemed unmoved after hearing this, but Chen Xuan keenly noticed that his pupils shrank for a moment, as if it was an instinctive reaction when someone revealed his secret.

But he scrutinized Chen Xuan with great interest, saying, "A master under twenty years old, with your previous skills, you are definitely at the Xiantian realm. There are only a handful of such young people in our Jing Kingdom. In the past twenty years, there were no more than ten. So where did you come from?"

"It's June, a season when it's so hot that dogs can die. Bandits are also human beings. It's unreasonable for them to rob passers-by in the middle of the day. This is not the way to do business. Otherwise, they would not be considered as free and easy bandits, right? So they must have special purposes to act this way. Am I right?" Chen Xuan said with a smile.

The two men answered questions irrelevantly and their words were completely irrelevant, but in fact each of them was confirming his own guess. The difference was that the other party was confused, while Chen Xuan gained a lot from the other party's reaction.

"I have never heard of a young master like you. There is no one who can match you in all the schools and factions, in the martial arts world and in the court. Are you gifted and have grown up by chance? You are really enviable," the other party said with a flickering eye, still not following Chen Xuan's words and saying anything that should not be said.

With a wave of his hand, a chair flew over. Chen Xuan sat down lazily, using its two legs to support the ground. He swayed as he lay there, looking at the other person and said, "You make it sound like you have a wide range of information channels and are quite influential. Forget it, I won't waste my time with you. If you're not bored, I'm bored too. Don't the bandits here call themselves fierce bandits? You are the leader of the fierce bandits here. Have you ever heard of me, the King of Fierce Bandits, Sang Biao?"

"Heh, Sang Biao? It seems you are self-proclaimed as such," the other party raised his eyebrows slightly and simply sat on the roof casually.

At this time, the two of them really seemed to be chatting.

Nodding, Chen Xuan asked curiously, "I'm just wondering, as a congenital master, wouldn't you be worshipped wherever you go? Even princes and nobles would be treated with courtesy. There's absolutely no need for you to be a bandit leader in this shabby place. From what I understand, you haven't been here long, so there must be a special reason. Am I right?"

"You are so young, you have either been keeping a low profile or being secretly cultivated by some force. But now you are out and about. I guess you think you are capable enough and can start to make a name for yourself, so you came up with the nickname Sang Biao. After all, this kind of 'bad reputation' is the easiest to spread," the other party said with interest.

Looking up at the sky, Chen Xuan felt really bored and didn't want to waste time on the other party, so he simply said, "I've probably guessed your purpose and what kind of person you are, so let's just be frank. Do you really not know who I am?"

"Should I know?" The other party frowned slightly, but his heart was uneasy. From Chen Xuan's tone, he should know, but he just didn't know. What went wrong?
Chen Xuan was immediately amused and said with a smile: "It seems that the person who ordered you didn't have enough information... Then again, not many people know about my situation, so it's normal that you don't know. Another thing is that the news hasn't reached you yet. However, I think that people like you probably cut off contact after accepting the job because of your status, in order to avoid implicating the people behind you. After all, people like you probably only take action once or twice in your lifetime."

"You are very interesting. Are you really so bored that you just want to find someone to chat with? I'm happy to join you," the other person said with a smile.

Pursing his lips, Chen Xuan said boredly: "Don't you feel tired of this? I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you. You probably came here for Gao Jingming, right? Didn't you carefully understand his situation and his entourage in advance? My eyes can't be wrong. Can you tell me, what do you, or the person behind you, plan to do with him? Kill him or cripple him? I have to know this, after all, it is related to how far I will go in the future." "Are you from the Gao family? When did the Gao family recruit a young master like you? Isn't there only a woman in the innate realm..." Perhaps Chen Xuan's words contained too much and were too shocking, which touched upon his secret. He subconsciously sat up straight and said in surprise.

Chen Xuan sneered at this and said, "You're just pretending to be a fool. You're trying to trick me into saying something. But I'm really surprised by your subconscious reaction in the first half of your sentence. Now, can you please be frank about the purpose of you and the people behind you?"

"I don't understand what you are talking about. If you are really bored and want to find someone to chat with, then go find someone else. I'm sorry I can't accompany you," the other party looked at Chen Xuan seriously and said, then he jumped up and left quickly, as fast as a ghost. In a breath, he was like a black shadow crossing the sky hundreds of feet away.

However, Chen Xuan followed him like a shadow, even sitting leisurely in a chair. He said with interest two meters behind him, "Why are you running? Is it because my unexpected situation caused a flaw in your plan, so you want to leave quickly to report and readjust? Do you think I'll give you a chance to tip you off now that I've come to your door?"

The other party was extremely confident, decisive, and swift, yet Chen Xuan was able to keep up silently. What kind of Qinggong cultivation was this? Hearing this, the hairs on his back stood on end. Running away was impossible. He probably had to fight. So he stopped at the treetop and turned back and said solemnly, "Who are you?"

Chen Xuan also stopped, still sitting leisurely in the chair, and said playfully, "It seems that you really don't know my situation. The intelligence collection is not in place. I forgot to tell you that the minions you sent to follow on the road have been dealt with by me. Oh, yes, I killed the entire village, so they didn't have time to notify you. Your target is already on the road at the foot of the mountain. That's right, Gao Jingming is not far away. I'm here. You can't free up your hands to target him. The mission is definitely not completed. How do you feel now?"

"I don't know what you are talking about. If you have nothing to do, please don't bother me. You are so handsome that I am a little moved." The other person swallowed his saliva and said with a slightly red cheek.

Chen Xuan immediately felt as nauseous as if he had eaten a dead child. He said in disgust, "You succeeded in disgusting me, but you think you can make me give up the investigation in this way. You are too naive. Now, bastard, tell me, who sent you?"

"If you want to fight, then fight. If you want to kill, then kill. Why waste so much time talking!" The other party said coldly, and didn't waste any more words. He knew that he couldn't get any useful information from Chen Xuan, and it would be difficult for him to leave alive this time. But people like him existed for this day, didn't they?

Chen Xuan said with disdain, "Are you worthy enough for me to take action? Killing you would be too dirty for me, bastard! Look me in the eye and tell me who sent you to target Gao Jingming!"

As he spoke, Chen Xuan's eyes flashed with a faint light, and there seemed to be a vortex of Guixu in his eyes, which was about to devour people's souls.

This was the first time he had actually used the Grandmaster's methods seriously, combining his mental will to perform hypnosis-like methods to confuse the other person, hoping to extract the information he wanted from them.

When he used this method, the other party was instantly horrified and subconsciously said in disbelief: "Grandmaster, how can you be a Grandmaster, and you are so young..."

However, when he said this hurriedly, his consciousness fell into confusion, and he muttered: "It's the Wu family...Puff"

When the word "Wu family" came out of his mouth, his eyes regained clarity for a moment, and then his eyeballs exploded. At the same time, his heart meridian was broken, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, ending all hope of life.

"I knew this would be the result," Chen Xuan said helplessly with a curled lip.

The opponent had no chance of survival and fell towards the forest below. In order to prevent him from faking his death and escaping, Chen Xuan simply waved his hand and slapped him into a bloody mist.

As the blood rained down, he couldn't help but touch his chin, pondering the two words he had heard from the other party.

"The Wu family, is it the Wu family that Gao Jingming kissed around Wu Junyao, or the Wu family that has been a family for five hundred years in Jingguo? If it's the Wu family of the aristocratic family, it's still understandable. After all, this old stubborn person can't tolerate a thoughtful person like Gao Jingming. But if it's the Wu family of Wu Junyao, then damn it is also understandable. After all, both families have reasons to take action. But it's also possible that they framed and confused the public at the last minute. Damn, this group of assassins is really hard to deal with. Who cares? At least there is some clue. Under such circumstances, it's not easy to get a deeper understanding."

Shaking his head, Chen Xuan stood up and walked towards the stronghold. After destroying the stronghold, he had to do some post-processing.

He suspected from the beginning that the innate master whose name he didn't even know was a assassin trained by a certain force. The fact was just as he guessed. The fact that the other party would rather die decisively than reveal any valuable information at the critical moment was enough to prove that he was not struggling to survive like an ordinary person.

Death warriors are trained through countless trials and tribulations. They are too sensitive to interrogations. I don't know how many times they have been hypnotized. Touching the key point is equivalent to turning on the switch of their death.

If it weren't for Grandmaster Chen Xuan's cultivation, he probably wouldn't even be able to get the two words "Wu Family".

Even the grandmaster can't pry open the mouth of such a person, so you can imagine the value of the word "death warrior".

What is a death warrior? It's not a slacker who gets paid to do things during normal times, but a master who has been trained with all his heart. He has everything he wants, money, power, and beauty. He will satisfy you with everything you want, even if it means enjoying it for the rest of your life. He can do nothing but enjoy himself, but when it comes time to do something, he will give everything.

This is the only reason for the existence of death warriors: absolute enjoyment and absolute loyalty. In a lifetime, they only have one or two chances to do something. Either they succeed or they die. There is no third possibility...
