Chapter 68: Give Me a Quick Death? 1

He needed to verify a fact about the locust tree.

“There are too many escorts during the day. “Xu Bai thought.

From the time Wu Hua left until night time, Xu Bai did not leave the agency.

It was only when night approached and the escorts left one after another and returned to their own homes that Xu Bai walked out of the house.

Tonight was different from the other nights. There was no moonlight tonight, and the sky was dark.

Xu Bai carried an oil lamp in one hand, a hoe in the other, and a Ghost Head Blade at his waist. He walked out of the house and went directly to the pagoda tree.

During the day, he had been thinking about it. Under the temptation of the Buddhist scriptures and the Human-faced Ancient Tree, he felt that he could do business.

Especially the Human-faced Ancient Tree. He was very greedy for the progress bar.

Helping No Flower was equivalent to helping him. After all, it was equivalent to having two more helpers.

However, he had to confirm one thing in advance. Was what No Flower said true? Was this locust tree caused by the Human-Faced Ancient Tree?

If he wanted to verify the truth, he only needed to dig up the pagoda tree to verify what Wu Hua said.

The people of the Extreme Life Cult killed the people and buried them under the tree. There should be bones under the tree.

There were too many people during the day, so it was not suitable to operate. Now that it was night, it was the best time to operate.

Coincidentally, the farming tools he had taken from the Underworld Blacksmith were now in use.

Xu Bai put the oil lamp on the ground and held the hoe with both hands. Looking at the lonely locust tree in front of him, he raised the hoe without hesitation and began to dig the ground.

With the addition of his True Core Strength, his speed had increased significantly. Not long after, he had already thrown a deep pit under the locust tree.

Xu Bai threw the hoe aside. He seemed to have dug up something just now. He raised the oil lamp closer to the front and back before he could see the situation under the tree clearly.

Beneath the soil was a tree root, and in the middle of the root was a skeleton wearing red clothes, entangled by the roots of the locust tree.

It had been buried for a long time, and the flesh and blood on White Bones had long disappeared, leaving only the skeleton.

Judging from the size of the skeleton, it was a woman’s skeleton couldn’t help but think of the strange red muslin he had encountered before.

The red clothes matched the red muslin.

“There really is a corpse buried here. It seems that what No Flower said is right.

We really have to do this business.”

When the rewards exceeded the risks by too much, it was hard to refuse.

Xu Bai did not think much of the Buddhist scripture. The main thing was the progress bar of the Human-faced Ancient Tree. If he could study it a few more times, he would definitely gain a lot.

It was already very late. He pondered for a moment. First, he started to bury the locust tree. Then, he planned to rush to the Liu residence to discuss this matter with Wu Hua and the others.

Thinking of this, Xu Bai was about to take the hoe and the oil lamp back to his room. However, he did not expect to hear a strange cry at this moment.

It was the cry of a bird, like an owl.

In his previous life, if this voice was translated into words, it would have a very special meaning and would make one’s hair stand on end.

For example…Online novels.

If the author of a web novel typed the word ” coo ” in a post, there would be a lot of blades.

Xu Bai raised his head and looked in the direction of the voice.

On the wall of the escort agency stood a masked man in black. On his shoulder sat a black eagle.

At this moment, the masked man looked at him coldly and did not speak.

Xu Bai also looked at the masked man. His eyes narrowed slightly, but his expression did not change.

After a while, the masked man stretched out his left hand.

The black eagle on his shoulder flapped its wings and landed on the masked man’s left arm, staring at Xu Bai.

Those eyes seemed to carry humanity, especially when paired with the current scene. It made one’s scalp go numb.

“Extreme Life Cult?” Xu Bai pulled out the Ghost Head Blade from his waist and gently rubbed the back of the blade with his fingers. His gaze gradually became playful.

“I was just talking about the time. Why didn’t anything happen here? So there’s an expert here.””You ruined my sect’s grand plan. I’ll choose a way for you to die.” The masked man said in a hoarse voice.’

“Oh? Choose a way for me to die?” Xu Bai touched his chin.” I’ve never heard anyone say this to me since I started working in this industry.”” Masked Man rolled over from the wall and said,” You can try it today.’”‘ As he spoke, he took a step forward.

The black eagle in his left hand suddenly flew up and rushed toward Xu Bai. Its eyes were cruel and ruthless, as if it wanted to tear the person in front of it into pieces.

Xu Bai raised his eyebrows slightly.

This black eagle was unusual. It seemed to dare to charge up even when facing tigers and lions.

There were too many sects in the martial arts world. He did not know the specific ability of this masked man, but this did not stop him from making a move.

His right foot stepped to the side, and at the same time, he turned his wrist. Ghost Head Blade swept horizontally from bottom to top.

“Tsk!

The black eagle split into two.

However, the blood that he had imagined did not spill out. The black eagle that had been split into two suddenly turned into a black fog and attacked Xu Bai.

In the black fog, there were all kinds of roars and howls. Many faces appeared in the black fog. Although their facial features could not be seen clearly, they

could still be heard together with the painful screams.

Xu Bai was already on guard. There was no such thing as contempt in his dictionary. When the black fog came, he staggered slightly and used the Four

Xun Body Movements. He was already moving sideways to the left like a ghost.

However, the black fog followed Xu Bai like a shadow. Not only did it block the distance between Xu Bai and the masked man, but it also kept chasing after them.

“So he thought I was a martial artist and wanted to keep a distance from me.”

Xu Bai saw that the man in black refused to move forward and only controlled the black fog in front of him to attack. He already understood the reason.

The masked man hadn’t said a word since he had attacked Xu Bai, as if he had already taken Xu Bai down.

However, in the next moment, his eyes revealed shock.

Xu Bai dodged the attack of the black mist and stomped his foot slightly. His True Core Strength flowed along his foot to the ground, and a golden array suddenly appeared.

Flames rose and shrouded the black fog.

In the flames, the black fog crashed left and right, but it could not come out at all. The shouts inside were even more intense.

“He’s not just a martial artist!” The masked man was stunned for a moment before he turned around and ran without hesitation.

It was originally meant to block the explosive distance of a martial artist, but now that this person was not just a martial artist, it was a different plan.

Escape was more important!

The masked man jumped over the high wall in front of him and prepared to escape.

However, the next moment, a gust of wind came.

The masked man heard the sound of the wind and turned his head. He saw a round object wrapped in golden light hit his calf.

The pain was like a tidal wave. The masked man wanted to cry out, but in the next moment, three more sounds of wind could be heard.

His intact hands and feet were all pierced by copper coins. The masked man fell from the wall and screamed in pain.

Desperate footsteps sounded behind him.

There was also a voice that made his hair stand on end.

“Why are you so confident?”
