Cultivator With Modern AI

Chapter 116 Assassin On The Road

Four people were sitting together in a horse carriage, they were heading towards the border between the Zhu Kingdom and the Shui Kingdom. As the coachman had said earlier, it would take them three days to reach the place.

Xia Tian who was looking at the scenery outside the carriage asked Murong Mengxin. "Can you tell me what really happened to your mother, Miss Murong?"

p "On that day, only my mother and younger sister were at home, my father was being summoned by Emperor Hong. I was also in Red Stone City at the time, so I don't know what really happened, and the guards didn't see any intruders entering our house either. When my father returned to our house, he found my mother in a weak condition, and her body was covered in blood. My sister is also not much better, her body is also covered in wounds, and her legs are paralyzed since then." Murong Mengxin told the story with a sad expression, although her father had mobilized a lot of people and resources, but they still couldn't find the culprit.

Xia Tian frowned upon hearing Murong Mengxin's story. "Was there no other family at the time, Miss Murong?"

"Only my second uncle, his wife, and son." Murong Mengxin replied as she looked at Xia Tian in confusion.

Alice suddenly warned Xia Tian. [There are two people who have followed you since you left Red Stone Town, Master. And their cultivation is at 1st Stage Core Formation Realm.]

"Hmm?" Xia Tian frowned upon hearing that, he then scanned the surrounding area.

Xia Xing who saw Xia Tian's reaction immediately asked. "What happened, Tian?"

"Two assassins at 1st Stage Core Formation Realm have followed us since we left Red Stone City." Xia Tian explained to her, then she said. "You guys keep going, I'll catch up with you later."

After saying that, he directly used his Void Breaking Step towards the location of the two assassins. Murong Mengxin and Lin Xue were dumbfounded to see Xia Tian suddenly disappear, Lin Xue muttered in confusion. "How could he just disappear like that? I can't even feel the energy changes in his body."

"Will he be okay, Xing'er?" Murong Mengxin anxiously asked.

Xia Xing laughed as she answered Murong Mengxin. "Leave it to Tian, ??Sister Mengxin. He will definitely be back soon."

--------------------------------

"That Lin Xue is very strong, Brother. Even if we attack her together, we still won't be able to defeat her." One of the assassins said to his partner.

Since his partner didn't answer him, he turned his head towards his partner, but he saw a long black sword pierce his partner's chest. He was horrified, because he didn't feel anything, and his partner had died just like that.

Xia Tian who was behind his partner laughed at his reaction. "Tsk! You're just a stupid assassin, you didn't even notice my arrival" Xia Tian said as he drew his sword, and the corpse of the assassin instantly fell from the tree.

"Who are you? Why are you interfering in our business?" The assassin asked while shouting at Xia Tian, ??because he couldn't even sense Xia Tian's cultivation made him wary of Xia Tian.

"Tell me who ordered you to kill Murong Mengxin?" Xia Tian spoke as his eyes turned cold.

"Humph!" The assassin snorted, and charged at Xia Tian.

*Clang...*

But Xia Tian easily deflected the assassin's dagger with his sword, then he kicked his abdomen hard, causing the assassin to take a few steps back, but he immediately disappeared.

[Behind you, Master!] Alice called out to him.

*Clang...* Thanks to Alice's warning, Xia Tian swiftly parried the assassin's dagger again.

'What the hell! He seems to have eyes on the back of his body.' The assassin screamed inwardly, after his attack was parried, he then disappeared again.

'Tsk, his technique is really annoying! If it weren't for my weak senses, I would have been able to get over it sooner.' Xia Tian turned around to find where the killer was hiding. 'Can you locate him, Alice?'

[I can only find out his location as soon as he moves, Master.] Alice replied.

'I see.' Xia Tian nodded in understanding.

The assassin smiled seeing Xia Tian confused to look for him, he immediately moved to attack Xia Tian again.

But unfortunately, he didn't notice the smirk on Xia Tian's face as soon as he moved, because Alice had already told Xia Tian about his location.

When the assassin attacked, and thrust his dagger into Xia Tian's body. Xia Tian's body turned into purple lightning, and electrocuted the assassin instantly. It was an Innate Ability he had obtained from Tian Qilian, the Lightning Clone.

The assassin instantly fell to the ground, and his body was convulsing wildly, before long the real Xia Tian appeared in front of him.

"Argh...!" The assassin screamed loudly in pain as soon as Xia Tian immediately cut off all four of his limbs.

"I gave you the easy way to die, but you chose the hard one instead." Xia Tian said with a smirk. He then crouched down beside him, and touched his head. "Soul Search!"

Before long, many images from the assassin's memories appeared in his mind. Seeing all those memories shocked Xia Tian, ??then he sighed heavily.

[Looks like this matter won't be easy to solve, Master.] Alice softly said.

"Sigh, human greed really has no limits." After saying that, Xia Tian then used Void Breaking Step to return to the horse carriage.

--------------------------------

On The Carriage

"Xing'er, he's already gone-"

Suddenly Xia Tian's voice cut off Murong Mengxin's words. "Oh? You're worried about me, Miss Murong?"

"Young Master Xia!" Murong Mengxin exclaimed as Xia Tian suddenly appeared before them. "What about those two assassins?"

'I can't feel his presence, even I still can't detect his cultivation.' Lin Xue thought to herself.

"They're dead, but I found some interesting information." Xia Tian then touched Murong Mengxin's forehead, and passed the information from the assassin to her.

Murong Mengxin blushed brightly, because this was the first time a man had touched her, even though he had only touched her forehead. But her face instantly darkened after receiving all the information, she then looked at Xia Tian in disbelief. "Is that all the information from that assassin, Young Master Xia?"

Xia Tian nodded. "En. That's what I got after reading his mind, frankly it also shocked me. Anyway, this matter will not be easy to solve, and that person will definitely send another assassin after knowing that they failed this time."

Murong Mengxin's expression became gloomy, she realized that it would not be easy to fight that person, because that person's strength and authority was too great. Even though her family is a big and well-known family, but her family is nothing in that person's eyes. She then explained to Lin Xue about the information Xia Tian got from the assassin, and Lin Xue's face also turned ugly after hearing her explanation.

"If my guess is correct, that person covets your family's Thousand Treasure Pavilion, Miss Murong. I don't know whether his father supports him or not, but if his father supports him, then your chances against them are zero." Xia Tian was telling the truth, because he didn't want to give Murong Mengxin a false hope.

Murong Mengxin was stunned by Xia Tian's words, of course she understood that. But what can she do, she is only a merchant, and her cultivation is not high either.

"Looks like there's no other way, I have to follow her wishes." Murong Mengxin muttered to herself with a pained expression. However, the three of them could hear her muttering, Lin Xue was also helpless to help her.

Xia Xing who was quite close to Murong Mengxin, she directly asked Xia Tian through voice transmission. 'Can't you do something for Sister Mengxin, Tian?'

Her question made Xia Tian sigh, he then replied. 'You know that I'm dealing with Yuhe's matter, so I can't help her for now, Xing'er. Because Mengxin's problem is quite complicated, although it's not as complicated as Yuhe's.'

'At least help her a bit, Tian. Sister Mengxin is such a nice person, I really can't bear to see her like that.' Xia Xing said with a pleading expression hoping Xia Tian would be willing to help Murong Mengxin.

Xia Tian looked at Xia Xiaoxing seriously, then he said again. 'Moreover, Mengxin has nothing to do with me, Xing'er. So why should I help her? I'm helping Yuhe because she's my woman, and that's my responsibility.'

Xia Xing giggled, then said. 'Then take Sister Mengxin as your woman, Tian!'

'Cough!' Xia Tian choked on her words. 'Are you crazy, Xing'er? Do you know how many women I have now?'

'Looks like they're talking about something important' Murong Mengxin said to herself, as she continued to observe their strange behavior, she wasn't surprised that they were communicating using voice transmission.

Xia Xing counted one by one, then asked. 'Aren't your women only six including me?'

Xia Tian shook his head, then pointed to the number eight with his fingers, Xia Xing was stunned for a moment, then shouted at him. 'Eight? Who are the other two? Why don't I know about them?'

'Liu Meng and Tian Qilian. You don't ask about Tan Qilian, I myself don't know what she is like. Because it was an accident, and it happened when I absorbed the Fire Ox Core.' Xia Tian replied guiltily, he still felt guilty towards Tian Qilian.

Hearing Liu Meng's name made Xia Xing dizzy, of course she knew that Liu Meng was Liu Ying's cousin, and she also had a husband. 'You really are insane, Tian. You even snatched Aunt Meng away from her husband! In that case, take Sister Mengxin as your woman too, adding another one is also more useful for you.'

Xia Tian sighed heavily, he shook his head, then said to Murong Mengxin who seemed to be curious about them. "You don't need to be so curious, Miss Murong. I may have a way to resolve your problem with him."

"Is that true, Young Master Xia?" Murong Mengxin let out a low cry hearing that.

Meanwhile, Lin Xue looked at Xia Tian questioningly, because Xia Tian looked confident that he could solve Murong Mengxin's problem.

Xia Tian paid no heed to Lin Xue's gaze, and he simply nodded at Murong Mengxin. "We'll talk about this later, the most important thing now is to heal your mother first, because I must return to Xia Manor soon."
