“Whoosh
A clear voice pierced through the night sky and came straight at Xu Bail s back.
Xu Bai was about to interrogate the old monk, but when he heard the voice, he took a slight step and used the second transformation of the Breaking of
Movement to dodge the attack.
After Xu Bai dodged, he saw what was making the sound.
A sharp arrow shot out from where it was just now.
On top of the wall stood a masked man in black, holding a longbow in his hand.
Even the longbow was covered with a black cloth, obviously not wanting anyone to discover his true identity.
After the arrow missed, the man in black seemed to be a little surprised and stopped his movements.
However, after a short pause, the man in black shot a second arrow.
The second arrow was aimed at the old monk on the ground.
The arrow was like a shooting star, arriving in the blink of an eye.
Xu Bails reaction was even faster. He cut the arrow in half.
Ghost Head Blade came into contact with the arrow, and a powerful counter-attack was transmitted through Ghost Head Blade to his hands.
“Good bow!” Xu Bai narrowed his eyes.
The power of the arrow depended not only on the quality of the arrow itself, but also on the strength of the bow.
“Lord Xu, I’m helping you.”
At this moment, the two arrows missed. The man in black put down his bow and finally spoke.
His voice was hoarse on purpose, making it impossible to distinguish his tone.
“Just as I guessed, the Miao family can’t be the real mastermind. “Xu Bai said thoughtfully as he twisted his wrist, causing the blade to flash in the air.
“Miao Family?” The man in black seemed to be hinting at something. “The Miao family of the Purple Wood Manor had intentionally harmed Lord Xu. They have all been killed. Now, there are no survivors. Are you satisfied, Lord Xu?”” As soon as he finished speaking, the old monk on the ground widened his eyes.
“You! You’ve harmed the Miao family!”
“How dare you!” The man in black jumped down from the top of the wall.” Your
Miao Family wantonly assassinated Lord Xu. You deserve it. ‘”‘
Xu Bai laughed, “You’ve cleaned yourself up with just one or two sentences.
You’re really something. ‘”‘
At this moment, Xu Bai also noticed that something was wrong.
In just a few sentences, the man in black arranged another identity for himself and removed himself from the incident.
“Since you’re helping me, what’s your identity?”Xu Bai said.
“I just saw injustice on the road and pulled out my knife to help. “The man in black slowly said,”Lord Xu, you don’t have to ask clearly. After all, there are many people in Jianghu who see injustice. ‘”‘
“Then you can go.” “I don’t need you to interfere.” Xu Bai said.”
The man in black stood in place, seemingly thinking. His eyes kept wandering between Xu Bai and the old monk.
After a long while, the man in black turned around and left quickly.
Xu Bai didn’t chase after him, but looked at the old monk behind him and said,””Do you understand?”
The reason why he didn’t chase after him was because of this old monk.
What if the other party lured the tiger away from the mountain? Wouldn’t they have fallen into a trap?
The ancestor had personally demonstrated the importance of not pursuing a cornered enemy.
If the other party wanted to kill the old monk, the old monk must know something. As long as the old monk was alive, it did not matter.
The old monk only had one hand left. After hearing Xu Bai’s words, he said, “”1 understand. Even if I die, I will listen to Lord Xu. I will tell you everything I know. ”
At this point, how could the old monk not know?
The man in black who had just appeared was obviously here to silence him.
If he succeeded in silencing the old monk, Xu Bai’s trail would be cut off.
In other words, the old monk was the only one left in the Miao Family.
If others were heartless, he would be unjust.
Since he wanted to silence him and take his life, he would reveal everything.
Seeing that the old monk was so wise, Xu Bai first used healing medicine to stop the old monk’s blood before saying, ‘”‘Tell me.”
While he was saying this, he had been guarding his surroundings. He had also released the Rank-5 paper man to be on guard, in case what had just happened happened.
“I’m from the Miao Family, but ever since I found out that you were passing through here, I’ve been hiding here to deal with you.”” Pigeon Tower was arranged by me,” the old monk said slowly.” That woman was arranged by me.
All of this was part of the Miao Family’s plan. ‘”‘
“Who is that man in black?”Xu Bai rubbed his chin and asked.
The old monk thought for a moment, organized his words, and said,”The Miao
Family is indeed not the mastermind behind the scenes. My status in the Miao
Family is not low, so I learned some news. When you went to the Purple Wood
Mansion, the Miao Family once received a distinguished guest.”
At this point, the old monk shivered and continued,’”‘Although I don’t know the exact reason, this esteemed guest said…As long as you come to the Purple Wood Mansion, I will never let you leave.”
The surroundings fell silent. After the old monk said this, he did not say anything else.
Obviously, that was all he knew.
Xu Bai fell into deep thought, quietly listening to the old monk’s words.
The Miao family was also a prestigious family in the Purple Wood Mansion, but now they had received a distinguished guest, and they were even extremely respectful.
All of this pointed to one thing-the person behind the scenes had a prominent identity, and at least the Miao family did not dare to offend him.
Moreover, the other party had said that he would never let him leave the Purple Wood Mansion. Then there was a lot of room for manipulation here, and he could even turn passive into active..
