Chapter 28
Before Lin Shouxi entered this forest that was said to have monsters, the little boy in gray clothes told him the whole story.

This little boy was ranked 29th on the killing list, and he was accompanied by a teenager ranked [-]th. They were good friends. They made an appointment to slay demons and demons together, and then shared the results equally.

They cooperated tacitly and came to this forest all the way in a winding way.

This forest is not special, but they walked around it for a long time, but they didn't see a single evil thing.

The excessive silence made them all scared. 29 was relatively timid and suggested whether to evacuate. Anyway, staying here is a waste of time.

Although Shiba was not reconciled, he did not object.

But on the way back, the two met that thing.

"He suddenly appeared in the middle of the road!"

29 started recalling.

"He has his back facing us. He is dressed in taupe and has a sword behind his back. The sword looks familiar, but I can't remember who it is... He sat cross-legged on the ground, his neck was heavy, and his body shrugged. Like eating something."

"I thought it was a prank, and I yelled a few times in the distance, but he didn't respond. Eighteen was more courageous, and walked up to him, patted him on the shoulder, and...

Then his head turned completely around, bounced up with a whoosh, and bit Shiba's neck with one bite. "

29 narrated the horrific scene at that time, his body trembled, his face turned blue and turned white, as if he was about to faint at any time.

He didn't see the next scene clearly, he only heard Shiba calling for help, he was so frightened that he ran away without daring to look back.

When he was about to escape from the woods, that thing chased him, it scratched his foot, and he fell out of the woods. He thought he was dead, but the monster didn't come after him.

Lin Shouxi had a general understanding of the situation, he helped the little boy bandage the wound, and planned to enter the forest on his own initiative.

29 quickly stopped him and said, "I didn't know you before, and I said bad things about you behind your back, but you are a good person... That monster is too scary, don't go to die."

"This is a forest. The forest has countless entrances. If the monster does not die, many people will die." Lin Shouxi said.

"You can report to Master Yun!" 29 said hastily.

"It's too late."

"I see, you are worried about Miss Xiaohe!" 29 suddenly realized.

"I'm not worried about her." Lin Shouxi shook his head and denied.

Afterwards, he sent 29 back to the cave to recuperate, while he took his sword into the woods.

As 29 said, there is not a single monster in this forest, as if something more powerful has slaughtered this place.

At this moment, a cold fog surged up, making the already dead forest even more frightening, and the black and dry trees with iron skins looked like giants who would come to life at any time.

Lin Shouxi searched along the sporadic bloodstains, slowly groping into the depths of the forest.

He didn't relax his vigilance for a moment, his eyes kept scanning around, alert to all potential dangers.

The fog became thicker and thicker, and the smell of blood became heavier.

……

A Yue stood on a smooth tree trunk, and his black clothes blended with the tree.

He followed Lin Shouxi all the way to this point, and the distance between the two got closer and closer.

After entering the range of assassination, he has already untied the crossbow.

A Yue held the arm of the crossbow firmly with his left hand, his falcon-like eyes stared at the front through the cold mist, there was a vague figure there, he didn't need to use the watch mountain on the crossbow to aim, he just hooked his fingers to pull the string.

The crossbow was bent to a certain degree by force and stopped, and the iron arrows quickly sank into the grooves, and the killing intent was twisted together for a moment, like frost on the arrow clusters.

His arrow cluster was given to him by Vice President Sun, and his name was not engraved on it.

The muscles in his arms were tense, his body was motionless, and his breathing was much slower.

Although the thick fog obscured part of his vision, it couldn't stop him. After the murderous arrow was fired, his taut body would also shoot out like a bow and arrow, and he drew his sword to chop off, forming a deadly formation with the previous crossbow arrows one after the other. Killing intent, try to cut off the opponent's head with one blow!

And the dying man wandering in the fog seemed to be looking for something, not aware of this potential killing intent at all.

whoosh-

Without any hesitation, the wrench was hooked, the crossbow rebounded, and the arrow roared out.

The air suddenly vibrated, and a straight hollow appeared in the thick fog instantly, which was the trajectory of the arrow passing by!
A Yue's figure moved at the same time, and the moment the arrow was shot, his hand was on the hilt of the sword.

Just as he was about to draw his sword, a chill suddenly rushed to the back of his neck, making his scalp numb.

Almost relying on the killer's instinct, Ayue kicked his legs and twisted a weird posture in the air.

Bai Mang passed by almost with an iron face. He turned the hilt of his sword and hit it. With a ding, his tiger's mouth went numb instantly. In the blink of an eye, the sword turned into a stab and went straight to his heart.

A Yue left the tree with both feet, and avoided the thorn by falling, but his shoulder was still injured.

boom!
A Yue fell heavily from the tree, his natural instincts made him resist the pain, a carp stood up straight from the ground, and suddenly distanced itself from the assassin.

He raised his head and looked up the tree in horror.

A handsome young man in black was standing on a tree, his hair was simply tied up, a bloody sword was hanging beside him, and the crossbow in his hand was taken away at some point, and it was placed on the ground steadily. In his hand, the arrow has been inserted into the groove, the string has been tightened, and it is aimed exactly at himself!
"Lin Shouxi..."

Ah Yue felt his scalp go numb.

When did he appear in the back?
How could it be so fast... Reverend Yun is nothing more than that... No, it's impossible, if he has the strength of Reverend Yun, it is impossible for him to dodge the previous sword!
that……

What was it that I just aimed at? !

He really wanted to look back to see if his arrow had hit anything, but fear tore his heart and made him unable to make any moves.

"I heard that you are the number one killer on the demon killing list?" Lin Shouxi asked.

A Yue didn't answer, he had been targeted, but Lin Shouxi's next words still ignited his anger:

"I'll teach you how to kill." Lin Shouxi said.

"You..." Ah Yue suppressed his anger, stared at Lin Shouxi, and asked coldly, "What realm are you?"

"I don't know." Lin Shouxi answered honestly.

"You don't know?" Ah Yue felt strange.

Lin Shouxi didn't answer, he glanced behind A Yue and frowned.

Ever since he entered Shimen, he knew that someone was following him, and he sold his loopholes several times to hope that the other party would take action, but the other party was more cautious than he imagined.

Although he entered the woods to track down the monster, he also wanted to take this opportunity to lure the snake out of the hole.

Lin Shouxi found the monster in the middle of the foggy forest. The monster was sitting under a tree, gnawing on something with its head down.

He didn't disturb the opponent, but deliberately led Ah Yue here, and then the thick fog covered it, making Ah Yue mistakenly think that the monster was himself, and when the killer boy was concentrating on the assassination, he appeared behind him and severely injured him.

Lin Shouxi looked at the position where A Yue shot the arrow.

The iron arrow was nailed to the tree trunk, and the arrow shaft was still humming, but the things that were standing there had disappeared without a trace.

"What realm are you?" Lin Shouxi asked again.

"I... only reached the initial stage of Cangbi in February." Ayue spoke slowly, trying to suppress the injury just now.

"Then I should be stronger than you, probably... at the beginning of Xuanzi."

Lin Shouxi finally estimated his approximate realm, and was a little moved.

It turns out that in his past world, the Xuanzi Realm was the apex.

"Xuanzi Realm..." A Yue's teeth trembled, "How is it possible? Even the eldest son is nothing more than that..."

The eldest son is a banished immortal, a rare genius in the world!
Ah Yue was not sure if he was deceiving himself, intending to wipe out his last fighting spirit.

"Who sent you here, Master Yun? Vice President Sun? Or..." Lin Shouxi's tone suddenly turned cold.

"You killed me, they can't let you go." A Yue said.

"I am the Chosen One, my life is worth more than yours." Lin Shouxi said coldly.

The so-called No. [-] on the demon-killing list is nothing more than a young servant to the Wu family.

A Yue's face was getting darker and darker, if the crossbow hadn't been pointed at him, he would have used his sword desperately at this moment.

"It's Vice President Sun." Lin Shouxi said suddenly, "He still doesn't trust me."

A Yue looked shocked.

"Looks like I guessed right." Lin Shouxi said again.

Only then did Ah Yue realize that he had been tempted, and gritted his teeth.

"I heard that you are the eldest son's personal servant?"

"Yes."

"Tell me about the eldest son." Lin Shouxi said.

A Yue's expression changed, he vaguely felt that Lin Shouxi had guessed something again, but... is this another temptation?In any case, this is a good opportunity to stall for time, and if he regains some strength, he will be confident that he can dodge the crossbow within this distance.

But he didn't expect that Lin Shouxi's question was just a way to distract him.

He didn't care about the eldest son at all.

When Ayue's heart is at war between heaven and man, the arrow has already left the string, and the distance between the two is only an instant compared to the arrow.

It's over... A thought flashed through Ayue's mind, but the movements of his limbs could no longer keep up, and the arrow would take his life in an instant.

A Yue originally thought that even if the opponent concealed his strength, the battle between them should be a fierce battle, but when things came to an end, he realized that he was not even qualified to take action. This assassination was like a joke. He was about to die in an instant, and there was no way to fight back.

There was a clear sound.

When the arrow was approaching A Yue, it bounced off suddenly, and a boy in brown clothes appeared in front of him out of thin air, holding a sword in his mouth.

It's that monster!
Ah Yue immediately realized that this was what he aimed at with his crossbow earlier!
He didn't have time to think about why this monster wanted to save him, so he turned around and ran away under the cover of the monster. He had to go back, and he had to tell Deputy Courtyard Sun and the eldest son Lin Shouxi's secret, and let them execute this young man with ulterior motives!

Lin Shouxi did not go after A Yue.

His brows were also furrowed.

The pupils of the monster in front of him were bloodshot, the brown clothes were loose and torn, and there were many disgusting granulation sprouts on the exposed skin. The granulation sprouts kept moving, like blood-sucking worms crawling under the flesh.

Holding the sword in his mouth, he stared at Lin Shouxi, and a ho ho ho ho ho hoo laughed out of his throat.

He knew this monster.

He is Xiao Jiu, the boy who blocked the door and provoked him that day.

He has been taken away!
