There are many older huts outside the main city, and there are scattered villages on the land a few miles away.

Ye Xi folded the note with the commission in half slightly, and then took it to Xiao You for identification.

Like a puppy with a keen sense of smell, it searches based on the smell on the paper.

But Ye Xi's idea was not that simple. Combining it with the things he had encountered in the past, Ye Xi suddenly had an idea and thought of a clue.

"Ye Xi, let Xiao You use her nose to find the person who issued the commission?"

Ye Xi shook his head in denial and said, "No, as far as I know, magic of the same nature can sense each other."

"Didn't you notice that the black mist that emerged from people's bodies is very similar to the black mist on Xiaoyou's body?"

Although Ye Xi has no magic power, he knows a thing or two about it.

Magic is much more complex than blood, but it has unique properties.

In the world of magic, magic plays an indispensable role.

The same elemental magic can have different effects and qualities, just like everyone's fingerprints are unique.

The same principle applies to magic power. In layman's terms, it is a "mark" that can be sensed.

Ye Xi's action was to let Xiaoyou give it a try, but the next second, the black mist appeared in Xiaoyou's body again.

"what happened?"

Charles exclaimed in surprise. Xiaoyou was surrounded by black mist, but it was a little thin and not very thick.

"Very good, Xiaoyou, what can you feel now?"

"Um... not really."

Upon hearing this, Ye Xi took a few steps forward.

"now what?"

Suddenly, Xiaoyou looked around, looking extremely uneasy and restless.

"It's a familiar smell, and it's very messy..."

Hearing Xiaoyou's feelings, Ye Xi smiled smugly.

But Charles was still unaware of this. He just stood aside and watched Xiaoyou looking left and right, looking at a loss.

Xiaoyou immediately fixed her gaze in one direction, and Yexi followed her gaze.

I was shocked to find a figure walking in a strange posture not far away, limping like a living dead.

Ye Xi immediately noticed something was wrong, but when he looked at Xiao You's expression, he still looked confused.

"Is this the person you're looking for? Let's go up and confirm first."

Although Ye Xi looked relaxed, he was holding a sharp dagger tightly in his right sleeve as he walked over slowly.

As he got closer, Ye Xi discovered that the other person was a man with a thin build, but his movements were a little strange, and he walked around unconsciously.

The other person's eyes were dark and his expression was solemn. Ye Xi immediately swung the dagger and slashed the man's leg with lightning speed.

"Ugh!"

The thin man let out a cry and fell to his knees on the ground.

The man knelt on the ground with his head lowered and remained silent, his hands hanging on the ground.

Ye Xi suddenly appeared in front of him the next second and instantly hooked the other's chin with the end of the dagger.

Just as the man was about to raise his head, he suddenly raised his right hand and hit Ye Xi.

Ye Xi was quick-witted and quick-handed. He used his left arm to defend himself, and with the dagger in his right hand, he quickly slashed the man's left arm again.

A sharp knife mark was clearly visible, blood was gushing out, and at the same time, a miserable wail was heard, but Ye Xi did not give him a chance, but immediately stepped on his head.

He dodged the left hand attack with a front somersault and landed on the man's back to subdue him.

"Another crazy person, this time just kill him directly."

Ye Xi immediately raised his knife and just as the end of the dagger was about to pierce the man's neck, a strong wind blew over, like a powerful invisible hand pushing Ye Xi off the man's body.

It was the magic released by Charles that stopped Ye Xi's execution and prevented an innocent person from being killed.

"Ciel?"

Ye Xi got up from the ground, patted himself, and stared blankly at Xia Er's worried face.

"I didn't expect you to be so capable that you even dared to use magic on me."

"Don't be blinded by killing anymore, Ye Xi!"

Charles' words instantly suppressed Ye Xi's dissatisfaction. She was shocked that Charles would actually yell at her.

She realized that it was her impulsiveness that made Charles speak out to stop her.

In Ye Xi's heart, this man was a threat, and once he was a threat, he had to be subdued, and in serious cases, he might even be beheaded on the spot.

After all, based on past experiences, Ye Xi is full of disgust for evil, and all malicious intentions must be brought to justice.

But Xiaer's sudden birth shocked Ye Xi's heart.

"Ye Xi, why do you have to kill people?"

"Even if you exist only to kill, why did you leave me alive?"

Ye Xi was silent. The atmosphere was unusually heavy, and there was a noticeable tremor in Xia Er's voice.

"Ye Xi, you asked me to find someone, do you want to kill them?" Xiao You echoed.

"not like this......"

"How was that?"

Ye Xi didn't know how to explain it, but he had to admit that he was impulsive just now and did want to kill him for a moment.

But after thinking it over, Ye Xi put the dagger back into his sleeve, let down his guard and came in front of them.

"Well, I admit that I was impulsive just now."

"But just now, I finally discovered something incredible."

Even though this man's legs were injured and he couldn't move, he still struggled, letting out creepy growls, and stared at Ye Xi and Xia Er like a wild beast.

His eyes were wide open, his eyeballs were bloodshot, and his expression was even more ferocious.

"This guy seems to be 'sick' too, and he's quite sick."

The man had signs of black fog and symptoms of unconsciousness.

"What should we do? Miss Lana is not here. How about we make him behave himself first and then send him back?"

Ye Xi knew what Xia Er meant by "be content". Just like last time, Ye Xi would use the neck-killing move again.

But Ye Xi waved his hand, indicating that it was not necessary.

"Xiaoyou, you can try to get a little closer to him."

"Ah? I don't dare..."

Xiaoyou showed fear and stepped back.

It looked like the man could stand up and grab her and beat her up at any time.

Ye Xi glanced at Xiao You thoughtfully, then slapped the man in the face, knocking him unconscious.

"You won't be scared now, will you?"

The man fell to the ground with a thud, his head slumped to the ground, as if he had lost his life, which scared Xiaoyou and Xiaer.

"With such a simple and crude method, what are the chances of survival?"

"I'm very rational. At least he won't die suddenly."
