Chapter 26 Tragedy

Chapter 26 Tragedy
The moment the sound reached Bai Qi's ears, his pupils suddenly shrank.

Things that were previously incomprehensible suddenly became clear.

He smiled bitterly:
“Qingxu Palm… So, you are the third young master of the Chu family.

"You deceived me so badly..."

"Each each other."

Chu Qing responded to his words while pressing his acupoints.

Then she reached out and pressed his cheek.

Immediately after that, he exerted force with his fingers, and there was a clicking sound coming from his mouth. Chu Qing seized the opportunity and slapped him on the back of the head.

puff!
A white thing that looked like a tooth was spat out by him.

Immediately afterwards, Chu Qing's sword turned around his right wrist, cutting the tendons of his hand.

At this point, Chu Qing finally walked in front of him:

"You probably can't use the bits and pieces you have now, right?

"Now, shall we talk?"

White didn't care about his condition, but smiled:
"What to talk about? You know me, and you know you can't get any information from me.

"Besides... the Evil Mirror will not let you go.

“You can escape death once, but will you have such good luck a second time?
"Blood Spear's martial arts are ranked higher than yours. It is a blessing from heaven that you can fight back.

“But you have to know that he is not included in the evil-killing list.

"But as long as you are alive, sooner or later a master on the Demon Slayer Ranking will come and kill you!"

"That's not what I want to talk to you about... You know, if you fall into my hands, you have no chance of survival today, so what happens to me in the future has nothing to do with you."

Chu Qing spoke softly:
"I'm just a little curious, what will happen if I kill Zhou Changtai?"

Bai Qi glanced at him and said with a smile:

“That means that in your heart, all those so-called great ambitions are bullshit.

"You are a cold-blooded killer who kills for money.

“Only in this way will you be truly qualified to join the Nie Jing Tai and even be trained by the Nie Jing Tai.

"It is not impossible for me to be promoted to the Demon Slayer List one day."

Chu Qing sighed softly:

“It is indeed like this, this is a game and also a test.

"Kill your own conscience and you will pass, and then become the real sword of the Mirror of Sin.

"Otherwise... there is only one way to go, which is death."

White was a little surprised:

"Have you become smarter?"

"People who die once always make some progress."

Chu Qing shook his head:

"Let me ask you one last question. Is it Wan Yegu who wants Chu Yunfei dead?"

Bai Qi glanced at him and suddenly smiled:

“Yes, it is Wanye Valley.

“They want to go to war against Tianwu City, but Chu Yunfei and Wu Ganqi have joined forces and they are no match for them.

"So, they want Chu Yunfei to die."

Chu Qing nodded:

"That's true, but you told me the answer so readily, it seems you don't have any good intentions.

"Do you want me to die at the hands of Wan Yegu? Or, even if I don't die, I will leave enough traces so that the Evil Mirror can lock onto me again?"

"...Are you really the Sword Ghost? Could it be that someone has replaced you?"

The surprise in Baiqi's voice was not fake.

Chu Qing smiled:
"Okay, that's enough reminiscing... Do you have any last words?"

Bai Qi's lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but the long sword swept across his throat, and the rest of the words were swallowed back into his stomach.

"Forget it. I can't help you fulfill your wish. It doesn't matter if you don't listen to your last words."

He sheathed his sword, watched Bai Qi's pupils gradually dilate, and watched the blood flow from his neck.

Only after the other party died completely did he feel relieved.

Killing this person will not stop Nie Jingtai from hunting him, but it can avoid many unexpected accidents.

“The assassination of Chu Yunfei is not over yet.

"One failure won't deter the Evil Mirror Platform...there will definitely be new assassinations in the future.

“However, this involves a game between two forces, which is beyond the control of a small assassin like me.

"Fortunately Chu Yunfei is not dead, but after this incident, he will definitely be on guard.

"He will be fine in the short term."

For a moment, Chu Qing was a little hesitant. Should he take advantage of this opportunity to leave Tianwu City directly?
As for the agreement with Wu Qianhuan, he could go or not. It wouldn't be a pity to lose the Ye Di alias anyway.

If he didn't go despite having made an appointment, it might cause Wu Qianhuan to make associations... but she might not be able to find him by then. The only thing to worry about was that she might accidentally leak the matter, causing the thread that Chu Qing had worked so hard to cut to be captured by the Evil Mirror again.

Besides that, there is Junior Sister Wen...

However, thinking of the figure that had been following him since he left the Chu family, he finally sighed.

"It's still a bit troublesome..."

After dealing with the corpse, Chu Qing changed into another set of clothes in a nearby farmhouse. Of course, he still left two taels of silver.

He tidied himself up and returned to Tianwu City.

There is a treasure chest on the system side waiting to be opened.

I don’t know what good things will come out of this treasure chest after killing Xin Youhen?

It would be best if it was something like internal energy.

Thinking in his heart, Chu Qing was already a little impatient and was about to go back to the inn directly, but suddenly he heard a commotion coming from the front.

It seems like something happened.

Chu Qing didn't want to pay attention to these, after all, he had something else on his mind, but after a quick glance, he saw an acquaintance.

"Tang Xi?"

This person was standing in front of a clinic at this time. Opposite him, being held down by several Luoyu Hall disciples, was a skinny and disheveled young man.

He was holding a knife in his hand and roaring angrily, wanting to rush over and chop Tang Xi to death.

Chu Qing was looking at it in amazement, and heard people whispering nearby.

"It's open again...how many times has this happened?"

"I don't know, this is at least the third time..."

"If you ask me, it's only because the young master is kindhearted. If it were someone else, this Er Gou would have died long ago."

"Oh, don't say anything, he is also quite pitiful..."

Chu Qing was a little surprised when he heard them talking. After all this time, this wasn't the first time?

He approached a middle-aged man and asked in a low voice:
"Uncle, what's going on? Why did you use a knife?"

The middle-aged man glanced at Chu Qing and saw that he had a simple and honest face and was wearing ordinary farmer's clothes, so he said:

"You just arrived in Tianwu City?"

Chu Qing laughed:
"You have a very good eye. I just came to the city to make a living. It is said that Tianwu City is a big city with the protection of the city lord. How come someone still uses a knife in the street?"

"That's what you don't know."

The middle-aged man whispered to Chu Qing:
"The young man's name is Er Gou. He lives in Shili Town. He originally has a wife who is not married to him. The two have been good friends since childhood.

“The wedding was about to start, but the girl was gone.

“When we found it… oh, it was so tragic.

"All my arms and legs were cut off. There is not a single piece of good meat on my body. I will die with my eyes wide open!"
