Chapter 88 The Fisherman
One of the three ghosts and eight immortals has been killed.

Xia Buddy turned to look at Lu Jianxian, who took a lot of effort to control the sword weapon he had thrown earlier.

He knew that his skills could not compete with this mysterious and unfathomable handsome man, so he couldn't help but his legs softened, and he fell to his knees without saying a word.

"Spare my life, Lu Yan will sacrifice his life to repay it!" His pale face was covered with twisted veins, the corners of his eyes twitched, his lips trembled, and his expression of fear and struggle was beyond words.

Xia Buddy nodded, and said with great relief, "You are a smart person."

He stepped forward, patted Lu Yan's shoulder meaningfully, and then took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms and handed it to Lu Yan, "There are a few pills in it, and they are not very poisonous. , but there is a small worm in each pill, eating the bone marrow and viscera of people, I think you should understand what I mean."

Lu Yan swallowed his saliva, and immediately pulled out the cork and swallowed all the pills in the small porcelain bottle.

"Willing to be sent by the bad commander!" Lu Yan cupped his hands.

"There is still one alive, you go and kill him yourself." Xia Buddy stared at Lu Yan coldly, medicine alone was not enough, he had to pay the certificate.

"Understood!" Lu Yan immediately controlled his sword and swept towards the place where Zhongliquan was kicked away. There was a low house there, but it was knocked down and turned into ruins because of Zhongliquan's body.

Seeing Lu Yan attacking him viciously, Zhong Liquan shouted eagerly: "Brother Lu! I am also willing to serve the bad commander, don't kill me! Our relationship is so good, if we want to be traitors, we should be traitors together!"

But Xia Baobao sighed: "It's a pity, he said it first, so you have to die, and then he said that one of the undercover agents who were placed in the undercover Mingting Sect is enough. If you want to survive, it depends on your ability. "

Hearing this, Zhong Liquan, who had only one arm left, was lying on the ruins of the ruined wall and lingering on his breath. He yelled and pushed his true energy forcibly, fighting with Lu Yan.

Seeing this scene, Xia Baobao, who was wearing the Nuo ghost mask, had mixed feelings in his heart. Although he said this to deal with the Mingting sect hiding in the dark, he always felt that this style was no different from the leader of Fenghua Xueyue Palace. It was a sinister calculation.

Not long after, Zhongliquan, who was already seriously injured, was cut by Lu Yan's sword. When he was covered in blood, his hair was disheveled, and he was panting, he held Zhongliquan's head to ask Xia Bad for credit.

"Next, you can take their heads and return to the Underworld with peace of mind. If the Lord of the Underworld asks you about your ins and outs, you can just tell the truth." Xia Badao said to him.

Lu Yan couldn't turn the corner for a moment, "Isn't that equivalent to betraying you?"

Unknowingly, Lu Yan even used the honorific title for Xia Bad.

"If you don't say that, if you feel that you have failed in the mission, the Underworld Lord will not take your life? And you have become my eyeliner. For the Underworld Lord, you are qualified to continue to live. Go back."

Xia Buddy watched Lu Yan's back disappear into the night, and couldn't help but sigh.

The blood-like crimson in his eyes became extremely intense, and he immediately took out silver needles from his arms and pierced several acupuncture points on his body. The cultivation method can resolve the side effects of using the Youxuan Nine Shas Art.

His eyes gradually became clear, and the manic killing intent in his heart subsided.

"The martial arts taught by the leader is indeed powerful, but the price of long-term use is extremely terrifying." Xia Buddy looked around. He was also in the same environment, but he was able to defeat the other three ghosts and eight immortals in an instant. Under the request of the leader, he has read all the martial arts books in the world, and the role of this skill cannot be ignored.

He had to admit that among the assassins he had trained since childhood, the leader took the most special care of him, as if he regarded him as his successor and taught him everything he could.

In other words, he was regarded as the sharpest blade, an invincible killing tool.

But the You Xuan Nine Shas Art, apart from being powerful, definitely has a big problem.

When the leader taught him, he really didn't have any good thoughts.

The reason why I say this is to mention a past event.

About a few years ago, on the way to a mission, the bridegroom met a fisherman by chance by a clear stream.

"Young man, the killing intent on your body is very unusual. Would you like to let me come over and let me take a good look at this old thing?"

The fisherman held a pole in his hand, sat on the bluestone, and said with his back to him.

Bridegroom He stepped forward without thinking too much.

"Assassins kill a lot of people, and it's normal to have murderous intent." Bridegroom He said frankly, and he didn't even want to hide his identity at all.

"No, no, old thing, what I mean is that the murderous aura on your body will gradually erode your sanity, swallow your heart, and let you be completely reduced to a human-shaped killing weapon, and the old thing looks good, the exercises you practice It should be the Youxuan Nine Demons Art."

Hearing this, Bridegroom He's eyes widened.

Many people in Jianghu could guess that he was an assassin, but few of them knew the specific name of the exercises they practiced.

Even inside Fenghua Xueyue Palace, the leader only taught himself this exercise.

"Old man, how did you know the name of this exercise?"

He humbly asked.

"It's just an old thing from the rivers and lakes of the past. I have lived a long time with old things, so I have seen a lot. This martial art is indeed powerful, but it has many flaws. The person who taught you martial arts has bad intentions. If it weren't for you. His pure yang body can greatly slow down erosion, and he has already been possessed by demons."

Hearing what this mysterious fisherman said, cold sweat broke out on the bridegroom's forehead.

As he said, his desire to kill is indeed getting heavier and heavier. Every night, he will be awakened by nightmares, and sometimes he will become violent for no reason. Not long ago, he even directly strangled a cat he raised to death. up.

Xia Buddy didn't understand why he became so cruel and bloodthirsty, he was very scared and restless.

I also guessed whether it was because of the cultivation technique, but all along, I didn't feel that the Youxuan Jiusha Jue had any effect on the mind.

Hearing what the fisherman said now, he finally realized it.

It's not that his sanity is firm and unaffected, but that the erosion has already begun, and he has changed his whole person unconsciously. He doesn't even think there is a problem with the cultivation method, but blames it on the heavy killing.

"It's so pitiful. As an assassin, your destiny is to keep killing, and the more people you kill, the less you can turn back. Even if you want to retire, you must have this destiny."

The fisherman smiled.

Bridegroom He asked: "Excuse me, old man, what should I do? If I don't continue to practice this exercise, how can I protect myself?"

What he meant was that if he didn't practice this technique, how could he reach the real martial arts realm as soon as possible and get rid of the shackles of the leader.

"You and I met today because of fate. I will teach you a set of formulas, old man, which can suppress the influence of the Youxuan Jiusha formula, but after that, you must use this skill with caution. There are so many martial arts in the world. There are quite a few others that are comparable to the Youxuan Nine Shades, but you won't be able to learn it until the time comes and the opportunity is not deep."

As soon as the words were finished, the fishing rod in the fisherman's hand trembled, and he laughed loudly: "A fish has been hooked, and it's still a big fish! Young man, guess what fish I caught?"

The bridegroom didn't want to guess, so he said casually: "Grass carp?"

However, when the fisherman rode together, he saw that the hook was biting a dilapidated wooden box. He couldn't help but widen his eyes and cursed: "Old man, you're angry! Doesn't this place not grow fish?"
