I am a swordsman in a strange city

Chapter 120: If it's not difficult, how can we, the senior and junior brothers, demonstrate our skills?
Pei Ju did not ask the man's name.

Obviously, from a normal official standpoint, it is not appropriate to take action against this person. However, if it is found that he was the one who instigated the unrest back then, and we have to watch him come and go as he pleases, many people will be unwilling to accept that.

Pei Ju could completely understand this feeling, and therefore could also understand why some people would send civilians to kill the other party.

"However, if we fail, no one will speak up for us, and we will suffer a bad reputation. Therefore, we can only succeed."

Pei Ju affirmed, "Of course, Senior Sister, you can rest assured, my swordsmanship has never faltered."

As Pei Ju followed his senior sister's steps, he noticed that the people around him had a somewhat surreal feeling, as if they were walking in a painting. Then, he himself felt as if he had walked a long way with each step, from one end of the street to the other in the blink of an eye.

"Wait a minute, I'll kill that person. If anyone else tries to interfere, you'll be responsible for stopping them," Senior Sister Yu said.

Just then, Pei Ju noticed that Senior Sister Yu paused slightly and turned her head to look in one direction.

Pei Ju followed his senior sister's gaze and saw a person suddenly emerge from a side alley.

The other person was also wearing a Taoist robe. Pei Ju recognized him; he was Lei Rushui, one of the seven committee members of Haishi.

Pei Ju had heard five years ago that Lei Rushui entered the dream and cast a thunder spell, purifying all those in the entire sea city who were haunted by the cries of the fish monster.

When Pei Ju saw him, he noticed that he seemed to be glowing and that he looked out of place in the alley.

He said, "I just received news that two famous figures have joined him. One of them is known as the youngest knight in the West and one of the most promising candidates to obtain the title of Paladin. He just got off the plane and has already joined him."

"Another one is a professor from the Berland Academy of Magecraft. He has a nickname, the Evil Mage. He used to be by that richest man's side, but we just received news that he has also joined forces with this person."

"You suspect someone leaked the information?" Senior Sister Yu immediately grasped the crux of the matter.

“Yes,” Lei Rushui said, “I suggest we abandon this operation.”

However, Senior Sister Yu paused for a moment and said, "There's no need for that. Let's go all out."

"Don't be impulsive. Those evil mages and the first knight are not ordinary professionals. They are both only one step away from becoming masters. If the two of you go over there and run into them, it will be very dangerous," Lei Rushui advised.

Although he hadn't met Senior Sister Yu many times, every time he saw this junior, he felt a sense of wonder.

It's like a flower in full bloom; after a while, instead of fading, it seems to bloom a few more times, creating a sense of endless renewal.

After a moment of silence, Sister Yu suddenly waved her whisk, and the deep alleyway shattered, while Lei Rushui, who was standing at the entrance of the alley, also scattered along with it.

Upon seeing this, Pei Ju immediately understood that Lei Rushui had simply appeared before him and his senior sister through a dream-like descent.

His senior sister noticed him the moment he appeared and stopped to talk to him. Now that she didn't want to talk anymore, she chased him away.

"Senior Sister," Pei Ju called out, though he didn't speak, his meaning was clear.

He was asking whether to continue or evacuate.

"Are you scared?" Senior Sister Yu asked.

"What's there to be afraid of when we're working together with my senior sister?" Pei Ju said with a smile.

"Alright." Senior sister smiled faintly and said, "If it's not difficult, how can we, as fellow disciples, demonstrate our abilities? If we don't show our great skills, how can we gain significant support in the future? Let's go."

Pei Ju didn't know what big things Senior Sister Yu was going to do in the future, but he was still very excited when he heard about it.

"Yes, that's it. If it weren't difficult, how could it showcase the skills of us, the senior and junior disciples?"

Pei Ju was thinking the same thing. Suddenly, Senior Sister Yu waved her whisk into the void, and he saw the two of them enveloped in a layer of mist. They were lifted up in the mist and rose into the air.

In the blink of an eye, those neon lights and the myriad lights of homes were at your feet.

When the environment in Shanghai reaches a certain altitude, what you see is clouds and fog.

The city of Haishi is often cloudy and foggy. Some say that the clouds and fog in Haishi separate the ordinary people from those in positions of power.

The mirages seen by ordinary people and those in positions of power are two different mirages.

At that moment, two words flashed through Pei Ju's mind—riding the mist.

He looked up and found that he had passed through the fog that separated the mirage and arrived at the top of a tall building.

He looked down and saw that the entire city looked like it was shrouded in mist, dreamlike and beautiful.

It's like a sea of ​​clouds, with the buildings resembling large ships in the clouds, and the lights like those on the ships, or even lighthouses.

The mirage materialized in his eyes at that moment.

Pei Ju's gaze finally settled on the top floor of a nearby building, where the lights were brightest.

The reason I was looking there was because that's exactly where Senior Sister Yu was looking.

His gaze could vaguely make out that people in a window on that floor seemed to be hosting a small party, with people moving around pouring drinks for everyone, and beautiful women in sexy clothes swaying to the music.

At this moment, Senior Sister Yu spoke up: "The one in the white shirt who looks gentle and refined is our target this time. As for the others, stop them if you can, and kill them if you can't. If you can't stop them or kill them, just call me and we'll leave."

“Okay,” Pei Ju replied briefly.

He knew what his senior sister meant: it was best if the others didn't die. So his first priority was to stop them. If he couldn't stop them, he would kill them if he could. If he couldn't kill them, then he would have no choice but to leave.

He knew he had to give it his all and absolutely couldn't hold his senior sister back.

Just then, Pei Ju saw his senior sister take out a round ball from her sleeve.

This sphere is made of glass and has many facets. At first glance, it looks like a maze inside.

My senior sister hung the glass sphere on a hook on the roof.

A gust of wind blew by, and the glass sphere began to spin rapidly.

He saw his and his senior sister's shadows spinning on the glass ball.

Then Pei Ju heard his senior sister say, "Get ready, be prepared, we're going in."

Upon hearing his senior sister's words, his sleeve was pulled up by her. He then instinctively followed her. The scene before his eyes changed rapidly, and he crashed head-on into the glass sphere. In an instant, the skyscrapers in his eyes disappeared, leaving only countless crystals.

The crystals were like a maze, and I was following my senior sister as we traversed through them.

At this moment, another magical ability came to Pei Ju's mind—traveling through mirrors.

My senior sister knows how to do it too.

The glass ball spun in the wind, and shadows moved through it.
