Chapter 104 Hong Xing's Speculation

"It's good to have the Grandmaster behind you!"

The hoarse voice of the man in black came from under the veil. It was impossible to tell what emotion he had. He just walked towards Hong Xing step by step. "How many times can you use an attack like that?"

In a blink of an eye, he was in front of Hong Xing again and raised his hand to chop her down again.

boom!
Hong Xing threw a punch again.

Then, at the moment the man in black flew backwards, he rushed out from the side.

Unfortunately, he had just taken a few steps when another man in black came up to him.

Although this man was knocked away by Hong Xing's punch, he also successfully stopped Hong Xing. The man in black had already come to her again.

Hong Xing's face had turned as white as gold paper. Although she had treasures to rely on, no matter how good the treasures were, they still needed people to unleash their full power.

Three consecutive hits were almost her limit.

Boom!Boom!Boom!
The footsteps of the man in black seemed to fall on Hong Xing's heart, making her face even uglier.

Another knife strike.

Hong Xing tried hard to punch back, but as soon as her blood and energy touched the treasure, her brain felt dizzy. She almost fainted before the man in black could attack her.

The man in black breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this. He slowed down the strength in his hands a lot, and his target changed from Hong Xing's neck to the back of her head. He just needed to knock her out.

The order he received was to capture him alive, not to kill him.

However, at this moment, he suddenly felt the hairs on his body stand up, as if he was suddenly stared at by a poisonous snake hiding in the darkness, and a terrifying sense of danger enveloped him.

Instinct made him choose to retract his right hand and reach for the long sword at his waist.

Swish!
A flash of knife light appeared and exploded before his eyes like thunder.

"That's too late!"

The man in black gave up drawing his sword and used his hand as a sword to meet the attack.

puff……

A palm threw out a ball of blood rain that flew into the air, and severe pain came from the arm.

"So strong!"

Only then did the man in black notice the extra man in black in front of Hong Xing.

He was also a man in black, but he was wearing a cloak instead of a veil.

He was filled with deep regret now. If he had not been so arrogant just now and had a long sword in his hand, he might have been able to fight with his perfect swordsmanship.

but now,
Without any hesitation, he turned and ran.

However, he had just taken one step when he felt like he was stuck in a quagmire. No matter how hard he tried, he could not escape from the alley quickly.

Something is wrong!
Something is terribly wrong!

Turning back to look at the man in the black cloak, he only saw a bright flash of a knife.

"Knife force!"

The man in black widened his eyes.

The reason why he just reacted now was because he had never thought that someone could comprehend the sword power in the Organ Refining Realm.

He then realized how ridiculous his previous thoughts were.

Not to mention a long sword in his hand, even if he had a spiritual weapon, he might not be a match for the guy in front of him.

"Black robe cloak..."

"It's him!"

"It turns out that the legend of Cape City is true!"

"evildoer!"

These thoughts flashed rapidly through the black-clothed man's mind as he flew in the air, and then they disappeared one by one, and everything returned to darkness.

"Knife force!"

Hong Xing also widened her eyes.

She was very familiar with the man in black in front of her. It was he who stepped forward to save her last time in Bishui Village. She was sure that this man was the same person as the man in black in Bishui Village.

But last time, he was not so strong, and he had never understood the power of the sword.

How many months has it been?
Are there really monsters in this world?
Hong Xing was shocked.

This reminded her of Miss.

No, this guy is progressing faster than the young lady did at the beginning.

Is it possible that Cape City is about to give birth to the next new Grand Master?
no, I can not.

Hong Xing thought about what the young lady had told her. It was a coincidence that the young lady was able to be promoted to a master. If it weren't for that crisis, this time might have been extended indefinitely.

Even if this guy's talent is comparable to that of the young lady, he will not have the same opportunities as the young lady.

But even so, she was still shocked.

To comprehend the power of the sword at the Refining Organ Realm was the first genius to appear in Cape City in hundreds of years, something that even Grandmaster Yue Lingke had never achieved.

Yue Lingke only realized the power after she was promoted to a half-step master. Even so, she has been recognized as the first genius in Haijiao City in hundreds of years.

And this fellow, at the Refining Organs Realm, has already mastered the power of the sword!
And it's not just the realm of swordsmanship, his strength is also more than one level stronger than last time, his comprehension of swordsmanship is extraordinary, and his talent for cultivation is extraordinary.

It's so terrifying!
No wonder the four major families would increase the treatment to that level, no wonder the Dragon God Temple would issue such a bounty!

Cao Ze looked at the stunned Hong Xing in surprise. He had been right next to her and didn't see her get hurt, so why did she look like she had suffered a severe blow to the brain?

Only then did Hong Xing come to her senses and found that the man in black was looking at her. Thinking of her idiotic behavior just now, her cheeks suddenly flushed. Now she really was like a blooming red apricot.

Cao Ze was relieved when he saw this. He nodded to her, stomped on the ground with a bang, and shot out like a cannonball.

Just now, those men in black had already scattered like birds and beasts after seeing their leader dead.

Originally, Cao Ze was planning to take Hong Xing to get his head treated first, but since Hong Xing was fine, he might as well get rid of these guys.

Although Cao Ze only used brute force in order to avoid showing off his Wind Shadow Step in front of Hong Xing, with his current level of cultivation, in just a quarter of an hour, none of the men in black escaped from the slum.

Without going back to the alley, Cao Ze activated the Wind Shadow Step and hid in the darkness. After escorting Hong Xing all the way into the inner city, he floated away.

Hong Xing finally breathed a sigh of relief when she brought her brother into the inner city.

But in fact, she was not too panicked. Although she could not see the situation behind her, she could feel that the man in the black cloak was right behind her, giving her a full sense of security.

"But why would he help himself?"

After entering the inner city and relaxing, Hong Xing couldn't help but frown.

If what happened in Bishui Village was just a coincidence, today, she absolutely did not believe in such a coincidence.

"Could this man in black be someone I know?"

She did feel a sense of familiarity from this person; this person must be someone she knew!

One figure after another flashed through his mind, but was quickly denied by Hong Xing.

"Is it really him?"

Soon, there was only a figure left in Hong Xing's mind, but she herself was smiling.

Since she couldn't think of it, she simply stopped thinking about it. She could recognize the black-clad man's kindness towards her. Since the other party didn't want to reveal his identity for the time being, there was no point in thinking too much about it.

Instead, these people dared to ambush her in Cape City. Hong Xing's expression turned grim.

From the brief fight just now, she could be sure that these people were not from Cape City, or in other words, these people were the ones who had just recently come to Cape City.

The only force in Cape City that can mobilize so many warriors in the Refining Organ Realm now, apart from the four major families, is the Demon Subduing Division.

Without any further guessing, Hong Xing already knew who it was.

Her face turned pale. If the man in black hadn't descended from the sky today, she would have had no chance of escaping.

"Go home by yourself. Don't leave the house without my permission."

Hong Xing said something to her brother and then walked towards Yue's house. Although it was already very late, she had to tell Yue Lingke about this.

The man was already in a state of disarray at this point, and even if Hong Xing didn't say anything, he wouldn't have the courage to go out for a while.

He was lucky this time. The men in black knew why they wanted to capture Hong Xing, so they naturally did not dare to act too recklessly, and they did not dare to attack Hong Xing's brother either.

Otherwise, although the two sides are now at loggerheads, who knows whether Hong Xing will really become that master's concubine. If they really do not know the current situation, and Hong Xing persuades them, they will not have a good ending.

"Man in black?"

In the Yue family bamboo garden, after listening to Hong Xing's story, Yue Lingke seemed to be thinking about something. He had some guesses in his mind, but he was not sure.

But like Hong Xing, she soon stopped thinking about it, and narrowed her eyes slightly, revealing a dangerous light, and fiercely read out a few names, "Yuwen Qilong, Yuwen Badao, Tianya City!"

"Miss, don't be impulsive. After all, they are from Xuanbao Pavilion."

Hong Xing sensed a strong murderous intent from Yue Lingke's expression. Based on her understanding of Yue Lingke, she quickly tried to dissuade him, not wanting the young lady to act impulsively because of her affairs.

Not only are these two people from Xuanbao Pavilion, but Yuwen Badao is also the master of Dragon Blood. No matter how talented the young lady is, she is still too young and is no match for Yuwen Badao.

Yue Lingke's murderous aura disappeared and he smiled at Hong Xing, "Don't worry, I know what to do."

"You should stay at Yue's house for the next few days and don't go out. I will find you some protective treasures."

……

In the west of Haijiao City, in a large mansion covering more than ten acres, Yuwen Qilong paced slowly and walked towards his own courtyard.

When everyone thought they were still living on the spaceship where the Demon Exorcist Bureau was located, they had already found a place to stay in Cape City.

The Demon-Subduing Division is crowded and noisy, so it's naturally not as quiet as here.

At this time, a servant came hurriedly and whispered a few words.

"what?"

Yuwen Qilong frowned, and a murderous atmosphere instantly filled the entire courtyard. The young man who came to report was suddenly trembling with fear and his body couldn't stop shaking.

"waste!"

After a long while, Yuwen Qilong uttered two words again.

"No wonder the people from the Dragon God Temple chased him like a stray dog. The people from Tianya City are really unreliable."

The young man agreed, "Why not let Gao Ming and the others go there?"

Gao Ming is an elite servant brought from the Yuwen family. Gao Ming himself is a master and is considered the most reliable force of the Yuwen family when they come to Cape City this time.

Naturally, they are many times stronger than those ugly guys in Tianya City.

"That's it!"

Yuwen Qilong shook his head, "Let's end this matter here."

I've already made a move once. Unless the other party is a fool, he will definitely be on guard. If I force him again, we'll end up in a fight.

Now is not the time to fall out with the four major families. He came to Haijiao City to earn credit, not to find a woman for Yuwen Badao.

After saying that, he ignored the young man and continued walking towards his room as if nothing had happened.

"Man in black!"

But he couldn't help but mutter to himself, "I didn't expect the legend of Cape City to be true. It's really interesting!"

In his opinion, this was nothing more than a trick played by the four major parties.

Apart from the four great families, who else in Cape City could cultivate such a genius?

If you dare to ruin his good deeds, don't let him catch you!
Although Cao Ze killed all the men in black who besieged Hong Xing, he was unable to massacre the entire slum, after all, someone still saw his presence.

On the Menglan River, there is still singing and dancing in the pleasure boats. After Yuwen Qilong left, Yuwen Badao also completely entered his complete form, allowing these women on the pleasure boats to see what a powerful master is!
Suddenly, a servant hurried in, ignoring the absurd scene in the hall, and went straight to Yuwen Badao and whispered a few words.

"interesting."

Yuwen Badao was still in high spirits and didn't take the matter to heart at all.

He was not worried about the reaction of the four major families at all. Not to mention that it didn't work, even if it did, the four major families would have to swallow the bitter fruit silently. Would they dare to cause trouble for him?

In Langya Pavilion, the atmosphere in the hall was very depressing.

The four family heads sat in their seats with gloomy faces, not saying a word.

"This Dusi is getting too much."

Finally, the mature and steady Bai Yuanze spoke first.

"So what?"

Lu Bohan chuckled, "If it was an ordinary disciple of Xuanbao Pavilion, it would be fine, but he is from the Yuwen family of Donghai County. Not to mention doing these things in Haijiao City, even in Donghai County, no one dares to stop him."

Ye Bufan looked up at Yue Zhenting, "Brother Yue, the one who got into trouble this time is someone from your Yue family, why don't you say a few words?"

Yue Zhenting pondered for a long time, and finally sighed, "After all, there are no serious consequences, so let's end this matter here."

In the end, he still shook his head.

They did not have any solid evidence for this matter, so even if they reported it to Xuanbao Pavilion, it would not cause any waves in the end.

Even if they have solid evidence, it probably won't cause any waves.

As for private revenge, not to mention the Yuwen family of Donghai County, even the Dragon Blood Master Yuwen Badao in front of them could do nothing about it.

What can they do?
We can only leave it at that.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Ye Bufan laughed loudly and looked at Yue Zhenting with contempt in his eyes, "Then what else is there to talk about?"

"Since the victim doesn't mind, why should we worry about it? Let's just go, let's go!"

Bai Yuanze did not look at Ye Bufan, nor did he say much. He knew that Ye Bufan had a bad temper. Instead, he turned to look at Yue Zhenting, "It was the man in black who took action again this time."

"Last time it was in Bishui Village, this time it was in the slums. It was your Yue family who took action when they were in danger. Brother Yue, don't you want to explain?"

Yue Zhenting smiled bitterly and shook his head, "It is a blessing for the Yue family to have a young master. How could there be a genius with such an enchanting talent?"

It's just one sentence, and it doesn't even need much explanation. Everyone seems to agree with this statement.

They all knew what happened last night. With so many dead bodies in the slums, it was impossible to hide it from them.

They also recognized the dead leader, a martial artist from Tianya City who had mastered the art of internal organ cultivation. He was known as the Iron-Blooded Lone Blade. His swordsmanship was ruthless and decisive, and it was a perfect swordsmanship that was honed through life and death!
He had mastered the art of refining his internal organs and perfected his swordsmanship, but he was still easily killed by the man in black.

This level of sword power can only be achieved with at least the cultivation level of the minor success of organ refining.

In other words, in just a few months, the black-clothed man's cultivation has improved again.

This cultivation speed and talent are even more terrifying than Yue Lingke's.

Just as Yue Zhenting said, their Yue family was extremely lucky to have Yue Lingke, so the possibility that the man in black was a member of the Yue family was not very high.

So, who is that man in black?
