Three streaks of Sword Qi pierced through Guan He’s body.
In an instant.
His legs and two arms detached from his shoulders, and he collapsed to the ground. Blood spurted from the wounds, the strong sll of blood spreading, causing a strong urge to vomit.
"Why don’t you just give a quick death?" Guan He glared fiercely at Cai Jin, a monstrous rage radiating from his eyes.
He was not afraid of death.
Because he knew that once his plan was exposed, he would surely be left without a place to be buried.
But more than death, he feared being tortured before dying.
Cai Jin looked down at him indifferently, "Of course, I want to kill you, but I promised Young Master Xu that your life would be his to deal with!"
Xu Wendong walked forward with a smile, squatting in front of Guan He, "You were the first to slap across the face, so I won’t be satisfied unless I make you pay!"
With that said, he raised his hand and slapped Guan He hard across the face.
"Xu, I’m convinced to die at your hands, do it!" Guan He accepted his fate calmly, as he could not even imagine that Xu Wendong dared to make such a risky move at Heifeng Stockade.
Therefore, having fallen into Xu Wendong’s hands, he truly had no complaints.
"In that case, I will send Second Master on his final journey." Xu Wendong struck Guan He’s brow with a palm.
Accompanied by a mist of blood spurting from his seven apertures, the Second Master of Heifeng Stockade t his end at the hands of Xu Wendong.
"Young Master Xu, my previous offer still stands. If you seek stability, you can co to my Heifeng Stockade anyti." Cai Jin once again extended an olive branch, then took out a palm-sized token: "This is the Heifeng Order of my Heifeng Stockade. Holding it will exempt you from the pursuit of the Three Mountains and Nine Fortresses."
"Not only that, if you encounter any difficulties, you can also show this token. Any brother from the Three Mountains and Nine Fortresses will help you in any way they can."
Xu Wendong asked in confusion, "Chief Cai, won’t this offend Yao Tian?"
Jia Hong laughed and said, "Although there is a gentleman’s agreent within the Three Mountains and Nine Fortresses to help find anyone wanted by any party."
"But the Azure Dragon Order hunting you was issued by the Second Master of Azure Dragon Stronghold, Yao Tian. His order might have so deterrent, but how can it compare to the Heifeng Order given to you in person by the chief?"
"As for whether it will offend Yao Tian, huh, I could defeat him with one hand, offending him is not a big deal."
Cai Jin also laughed, "Indeed, if the First Master of Azure Dragon Stronghold had issued the Azure Dragon Order, even if I gave you the Heifeng Order, the Three Mountains and Nine Fortresses would not rescind their pursuit of you."
"But since Yao Tian is the one who issued the Azure Dragon Order, with my Heifeng Order, no one would dare touch you."
Xu Wendong suddenly understood.
It’s like in an organization where there are two leaders, the deputy has so authority, but what does it matter in front of the chief?
Nevertheless, with the Heifeng Order, he was no longer afraid of Azure Dragon Stronghold’s pursuit.
"Alright, we’ll return to the stockade first. If you have any matters, you can use the Heifeng Order to send a ssage anyti." Cai Jin said as he turned his attention to the four middle-aged n at the Foundation Establishnt Stage following Guan He, a flash of cold light gleaming in his eyes.
As the three masters of Heifeng Stockade disappeared into the night, everyone from Chen Escort Agency finally let out a breath of relief. Although they were friends, not foes, Heifeng Stockade was indeed a fearso mountain bandit fortress.
Especially the inherent aura exuded by the three late Foundation Establishnt Stage masters, which ordinary people could not bear.
At this ti, Chen Xi locked her eyes on Wang Qian, gritting her teeth, "Wang Qian, why did you betray us?"
"Junior Sister, I was wrong, I shouldn’t have allowed myself to be blinded by greed, please give a chance to redeem myself, will you?" Wang Qian knelt on the ground, kowtowing continuously.
He initially thought that his plan was flawless. As long as he gave Guan He their coordinates, Guan He would loot the supplies and reward him with a Foundation Establishnt Pill afterward.
But he had never expected things to turn out this way.
Had he known earlier, he shouldn’t have let Xu Wendong accompany them.
If it weren’t for Xu Wendong, how could their plan have failed?
"Miss, we can’t let him off."
"Right, it’s one thing if we die, but if we fail the task assigned by the Elixir Sect, then the banner of our Chen Escort Agency will fall. When that happens, hundreds of brothers in the agency will lose their livelihood!"
Those from Chen Escort Agency spoke one after another, their eyes filled with killing intent as they looked at Wang Qian.
For the escort agency, reputation was paramount.
Chen Escort Agency had been passed down for hundreds of years, finally gaining so renown in Qingzhou City, which was why they helped transport herbs for the Elixir Sect.
If an accident happened during this task, their reputation, built over hundreds of years, would be destroyed.
Even if the Elixir Sect did not bla them, from now on, no one would dare hire them for an escort task.
Chen Xi looked at Wang Qian with a ferocious gaze, an imnse fury rising within her, causing her petite body to tremble uncontrollably, "It’s thanks to Young Master Xu seeing through your treachery today. Otherwise, we would all beco victims under Guan He’s blade!"
"You already aid to put us to death, so why expect us to spare your life?" After speaking, her longsword left a cold trace of Sword Qi in the night sky.
At the sa ti, a crimson line appeared on Wang Qian’s neck.
His pupils trembled violently with intense terror and unwillingness.
Then his head slowly slid off his shoulders.
Separated from his body.
This scene startled Xu Wendong, not because it was too grueso, but because he hadn’t expected that Chen Xi, this beautiful, ethereal woman, would act so decisively.
To be honest, such ruthlessness was not sothing an average person possessed.
This woman would soday carve out her own world in the Nine Provinces.
Chen Xi gracefully sheathed her longsword, clasped her fists, and bowed, "Thank you, Young Master Xu, for heroically saving my Chen Escort Agency. Please accept a bow from this humble girl!"
Xu Wendong quickly said, "Miss Chen, there’s no need for that. The reason I saved you is mainly because you’re a kind-hearted, virtuous person. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have intervened."
He truly wasn’t lying about this. Even though Chen Xi was stunningly beautiful, if it hadn’t been her character that moved Xu Wendong, he would never have risked going to Heifeng Stockade.
Chen Xi’s face was full of gratitude, "Regardless, Young Master Xu saved my life and my Chen Escort Agency. If you ever need anything, just let know, and my Chen Escort Agency will be ready to go through fire and water..."
Before she could finish, Chen Xi felt her strength draining as if being extracted, and her petite body went limp, overwheld by a swirling sensation.
The escort guards of Chen Escort Agency were alard, "Miss, what’s wrong?"
Xu Wendong also crouched down, checking Chen Xi’s pulse, and his expression beca serious, "It seems Miss Chen has been poisoned by Emotional Poison!"
Chen Xi glanced at Wang Qian’s body with cold eyes but weakly said, "It must have been Wang Qian... who poisoned with Hehuan Powder..."
