Chapter 660 In The Shadows

The two youths in white looked at each other for a long time.

Nineteen also widened her eyes in disbelief as she looked at Zhou Yuan, who was kneeling on the ground and crying bitterly. She really did not expect her master to do such a disgraceful thing.

The two Saint Weapons were stunned for a moment before regaining their senses. A cold smile immediately appeared on their faces as they coldly snorted, "Where did I come from? So I'm just a clown jumping off a beam."

Thus, after a hundred breaths of time, the Nineteen Masters and Apprentices said, Several old men from Ximian Village were tied together by ropes and dragged to Yanxia City. The two Saint Weapon Lords suddenly changed their minds. They secretly felt that the grain in Yanxia City's official warehouse had been brought here unnoticed. There were still many oddities in it, so they wanted to bring everyone back to Yanxia City and interrogate them again.

Nineteen, who was trapped in a rope, was puzzled. She could not understand why Zhou Yuan, who had been able to master all the techniques yesterday night, had become so weak and vulnerable today. Adhering to the principle that anything abnormal must have a monster, Nineteen remained silent all the way. He tilted his head and frowned for a while, but his eyes suddenly lit up. He looked at Zhou Yuan behind him with bright eyes and asked, "Master, are you pretending to surrender?! Then, you went straight to the Yellow Dragon and killed that villain in the Down City, right?"

Hearing this, Zhou Yuan was speechless.

He didn't know how Nineteen had such great confidence in him, but he was very clear about his own ability. He had to spend some effort to take care of these ordinary soldiers, not to mention this Saint Weapon whose cultivation had reached the Leaving Mortal Realm.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yuan wanted to say something.

"Master, I understand what you mean. Later on, we will take the white-clothed man's knife first. He just insulted Master. In the nineteenth month, we must make him worse off than dead!" "Master, I understand what you mean. Later on, we will take the white-clothed man's knife first!" Nineteen's voice rushed out before Zhou Yuan could speak, and when he spoke up to here, the little fellow's eyebrows were still shining with anticipation.

Zhou Yuan truly couldn't understand why Nineteen was so interested in fighting and killing at such a young age. However, he felt that it was most important to let Nineteen clearly understand the facts before him.

Whoosh!

However, this time, before he could say anything, a sound of air-piercing rang out.

One of the soldiers who had been driving them beside Nineteen and Zhou Yuan suddenly trembled and fell to the ground.

The crowd stopped moving at that moment. The two white-clothed youths in the lead frowned as they looked at the fallen soldier. The expressions of the surrounding people also changed, not knowing why.

"Go, let's see what's going on." One of the white-clothed teenagers said at that time.

Immediately, a soldier walked out of the queue and arrived in front of the fallen man. He carefully investigated the situation of the other party, and then stood up to report to the two Saint Weapons.

Whoosh!

However, just as he raised his hand, another sound of breaking through the air rang out. At that moment, the armored soldier fell to the ground like the person before him.

"Huh?" One of the two Saint Weapons, a white-clothed youth, stepped forward with a murderous aura surging between his brows. He looked around and then said in a deep voice, "Why don't you come out and take a look?"

His voice echoed in the empty and deathly silent forest, and no one responded for a long time.

But at this moment, Nineteen came back to her senses. She looked at Zhou Yuan with admiration and said excitedly, "Master has attacked, right? I told you, how can these thieves be Master's opponents!"

The white-clothed youth, who was unable to find the evil head, immediately turned his gaze to Zhou Yuan. A chill suddenly appeared in his eyes, "Did you do this?"

Of course, Zhou Yuan had regretted getting into Xu Han's war chariot more than once, and he didn't know how he regretted being Nineteen's master.

But every time they were added together, they were less than a thousandth of the regrets they felt at this moment.

He shook his head and waved his hand at the saint soldier, "My lord, where did this little one come from? Are you … aren't you joking?"

"Master! Stop acting! I know what you're capable of! Quickly get rid of these bad people!" At this moment, Nineteen jumped out and shouted loudly.

Zhou Yuan wished he could find a needle to sew Nineteen's mouth, but in reality, facing the killing intent in the eyes of the white-clothed youth, he could only smile and hurriedly say, "Lord, you really aren't a little old man. How can this little old man's thin arms and legs injure the bodies of the gods and immortals of all of you?"

However, there seemed to be something insisting on going against Zhou Yuan today.

Another sound of breaking through the air rang out, and something flew out, shooting into the body of another armored warrior beside him. The armored warrior fell to the ground again.

The white-clothed youth could not find the culprit, so he could only vent his anger on Zhou Yuan.

"Hmph, since you are cowardly, then I can only let these untouchables and my soldiers die with you!" He said loudly at that time, and then he stretched out his hand, forming a hand blade, and a vast purple aura lingered around his palm.

However, he did not attack immediately. Instead, he continued to look around coldly, as if he wanted to threaten the person hiding in the shadows to appear.

However, what responded to his threat was another air-piercing sound. This time, the youth saw it clearly. At that time, a silver needle flew straight behind him. Just like before, another armored soldier fell to the ground.

The baleful aura between the white-clothed youth's eyebrows finally turned into killing intent at that moment. He suddenly raised his hand high up, and under Nineteen's excited gaze, under Zhou Yuan's frightened gaze, he moved towards Zhou Yuan's neck.

My life was over. Nineteen mistakes and thoughts of dying in grief surged into Zhou Yuan's mind at that time. His entire body trembled and he almost closed his eyes.

But at this moment, a figure suddenly jumped out from behind him.

The white-clothed youth saw the figure and immediately revealed a sinister smile. He said, "Finally, I am willing to come out."

When the word "yes" reached his mouth, he had no chance to say it again. A cold light waved out from the hand of the figure, and his head fell from his neck with an incomparably neat cut.

His eyes were wide open before his head landed on the ground and he lost consciousness.

The last scene he saw was Nineteen stomping his feet in anger and pointing at the figure that suddenly shot out.

"Uncle Xu! What are you doing! I still have to go and cause trouble with Master!"



At night, in Ximian Village, Xu Han looked at Nineteen, who was hugging his chest with anger and laughter. Then, he turned around and asked, "So, did you really not make a move?"

Zhou Yuan, who was lowering his head and eating meat pancakes that he hadn't eaten for a long time, hurriedly raised his head and shook his head at Xu Han. He wrapped a large mouthful of meat pancakes in his mouth and said, "Are you kidding me? Don't you know what I'm capable of?"

"Then who is it?" Xu Han muttered with a frown.

In fact, they had only just arrived at that time. They did not know what had happened. However, seeing that Zhou Yuan and the others were in danger, they did not think too much and directly killed the Saint Weapons and Armored Soldiers. As for what had happened before, Xu Han's temper didn't think that he would do such a thing in order to torture those armored warriors or tease Zhou Yuan.

At the very least, under the current circumstances, Xu Han did not have the slightest intention of doing so.

After he finished speaking, he saw that Zhou Yuan was still eating meat pancakes on his own. With Xu Han's current cultivation, it was not difficult to tell that Zhou Yuan really did not have such abilities. However, after hearing the two's words, Xu Han went to search the surroundings but did not find any traces of strangers. Therefore, he could only temporarily suppress this matter.

Thinking of this, he put away his thoughts on this matter. After all, he had more important things to do.

Therefore, he glanced at Ye Hongjian, who was sitting beside the fire not far away, and then at Qin Keqing, who was also silent. Xu Han took a deep breath and asked, "What exactly happened to Niutou Village?"

Speaking of serious matters, Zhou Yuan did not dare to be vague. He felt that he put down the meat patty in his hand, swallowed the meat patty in his mouth, and then told them everything that had happened during their search for Niutou Village after arriving at Yan Xia City in a low voice.

After Xu Han heard this, he couldn't help but frown. After a long silence, he said in a deep voice, "Whether it's the Niutou Village or the Niutou Tomb, tomorrow, I'll go and see what's hidden inside!"



Deep into the night.

Moon is cold.

Nineteen sat up from the bed.

As usual, she carefully listened to the movements of the surrounding rooms. After confirming that the sound of steady breathing could be heard from the doors, Little Nineteen let out a long sigh of relief. Then, she tiptoed open the door, picked up the long saber placed aside, and left the courtyard.

"Master should be waiting for me by now. Well, I must ask him why he refused to make a move today. Is there any reason for that?" Nineteen said to himself with such difficulty. Then, a smile appeared on his face and he quickly ran towards the village.

To be able to cultivate kung fu was naturally an extremely good thing for Nineteen, who wanted to become number one in the world.

However, she might not have thought that after she closed the door and left, Xu Han also opened his eyes in a room beside her door.

Xuan'er, who was beside him, also raised her head and stared at Xu Han with her amber eyes wide open.

Xu Han touched Xuan'er's head and smiled, "There are really more and more strange things in this world. It doesn't matter. Let's look at them one by one."

As he finished speaking, the door and window beside the room suddenly opened. Xu Han's body jumped out at that moment. Xuan'er and Ah Huang, who were sitting outside the room, all jumped up to catch up with Xu Han's footsteps and chased after him in the direction where Nineteen left.

The night was darker and the moonlight cooler.

The black-clothed man standing at the village head with his hands behind his back seemed to feel something at that moment. He raised his eyebrows and let out a long sigh. At that moment, his body disappeared from the village head out of thin air.
