Just as Li Qingniu's voice fell, Fenggu Zhengyun had already floated into his line of sight. With a slight turn of his body, she appeared right in front of him.

Junior brother, is junior sister alright? Fenggu Zhengyun asked in concern.

Li Qingniu said: I have checked, but I was temporarily knocked unconscious, and will wake up after sleeping.

Mm, that's good. As she spoke, Fenggu Zhengyun inadvertently saw the pile of heads rolling on the ground, and also Man in Black who was still standing there like a stone pillar even though he had lost his head. He couldn't help but slightly furrow his brows and say: "Junior Brother, these people …" You killed them all?

Li Qingniu nodded his head: "En, I didn't want to kill them at first, but they weren't willing to say anything I asked them, and since I was in a hurry to find someone, and didn't want to deal with them once and for all, I had no choice but to shut them up as per my wish.

Seeing how Li Qingniu spoke calmly and unhurriedly, as if he was narrating an insignificant matter, Fenggu Zhengyun knew that what he said was true, and he did not try to defend herself in the slightest. It was as if, in his opinion, it was a very normal thing, and there was no need to justify herself at all.

In Fenggu Zhengyun's opinion, this might be a type of innocence, but it also seemed to be a little numbing and heartless.

But then he thought, in order to snatch Murong Lanyu, the other side had sent out eight different groups of people to escape in eight different directions, to disrupt their line of sight. If they dealt with it like he did, the moment they delayed him, Murong Lanyu would have already escaped somewhere, she might even be killed.

It was precisely because of Li Qingniu's prompt decision that the enemies were able to divide and deploy so tightly, allowing them to save the situation in time.

Sigh. Thinking about that, Fenggu Zhengyun sighed, he did not know whether he should scold Li Qingniu for using such improper methods, at least she could subdue them without harming his life.

Seeing that, Li Qingniu asked: Why do you sigh, senior brother? Do you think I shouldn't kill them?

Fenggu Zhengyun shook his head and said: I don't know if what you're doing is right or wrong, but sometimes giving people a chance to live, is also kind of benevolent.

But I have seen many merciful people being oppressed by the wicked. The Grandma Long also told me that being merciful to the merciful people is akin to being cruel to oneself. I just do not want the evil people to be rampant.

Fenggu Zhengyun was silent for a moment, then said: Maybe you're right, every person's living environment is different, their understanding and understanding of things are also different, I have no right to blame you for anything, let's quickly send our junior sister back first, so as to prevent everyone from worrying.

Yes.

In the distant forest, the Man in Black stood on top of a mountain, waiting for his comrades' triumphant return.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew past. With a rustling sound, two figures appeared behind him, one on the left and the other on the right.

Why is it only the two of you coming back? What about the others?

He did not know that he had encountered an expert, so his strength should be extremely strong. Fortunately, he was anxious to save the enemy, so he did not chase after him. Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to escape. The Man in Black on the left answered.

The leader said, A person who can make you praise someone very highly is definitely not a simple person.

The Man in Black on the right continued: Yeah, I exchanged a move with him, his strength is indeed not to be underestimated, if we continue fighting, I also do not have any chance of winning, but this is not strange, Celestial Star Sect is a place where experts are trained anyways, we can wait, maybe they also met different experts who were held up for a while.

Yes. The leader nodded and continued, "However, I am more concerned that Ol 'Five has yet to return. I am a little worried that he is acting alone, just in case..."

The Man in Black on the left said: I don't think so. Ol 'Five's underwater skills are considered top-notch, once he digs into the river, it will be very difficult for him to be discovered.

The leader said, But he always comes out. We split up, not only to disrupt their vision, but also to divert their power, so that even if they catch up with you, they won't be able to capture you easily because of their power. And you all have companions to take care of you, but Fifth Brother …

The Man in Black on the right thought for a moment and said: There's nothing that can be done, he's going to bring hostages, if the other teams only had two people, then it would definitely attract attention. However, he is using the water route, so very few people would be able to think of it.

I'm not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. I think it's better if the two of you go and get some help.

Okay, let's go take a look.

After the two Man in Black s finished speaking, they jumped back and disappeared into the night sky, leaving behind only the rustling of the wind and the leader of the Eighteen Pirates, who was still on the ground, waiting for news.

After a while, the sound of footsteps came from behind Man in Black, but he was very familiar with his companion's voice, so even if he did not turn his head, he still knew who it was.

I will send it to you when you return. Why are you in such a hurry?

Cloaked Man slowly walked to the back of Man in Black and laughed sinisterly: Oh? Am I in a hurry, or is your heart in a mess? Don't worry, I'm not here to rush you. I'm just here to see how your people are progressing.

Man in Black said: Don't worry, at most, you would only be able to get stopped on the way back, so it will be a bit late. Don't forget that the opponent is Celestial Star Sect, so it will naturally take some effort for them to take care of them.

Heh heh, good, then I'll wait and see. But I have to remind you, one of them is someone who can't be described with normal thinking and understanding.

Man in Black raised his eyebrows. Oh? An indescribable person?

His body contains a strange power. If my information is correct, it seems that an ancient Spirit exists, so it can always surprise and defeat people who look stronger than him.

Why didn't you say so?

Cloaked Man chuckled and said: "Does it matter?" He dared to even touch the Celestial Star Sect, a mere Hair-raising Boy is enough to scare you to death?

Man in Black snorted: What a joke, how could I be so easily scared? When Eighteen Pirates joined hands to attack, even if they wanted an expert in Starry Sky Level, it would be easy.

Then I hope they can join hands with you.

What do you mean?

As soon as he finished speaking, without waiting for Cloaked Man to reply, he quickly dashed over from afar with another rustling sound. The sound was urgent and heavy, as though he was in a panic.

He couldn't help but furrow his brows as he looked towards the source of the voice.

It was the two Man in Black s who had just left that were quickly rushing over. One of them was carrying a heavy looking large gunny sack while the other one seemed to be carrying a person.

The two of them dashed over and put down the items on each of their shoulders.

When the leader of the Man in Black saw that one of them was a headless corpse, he felt his heart tighten and blurted out: "This is …"

One of them lowered his head and said with a lonely expression: "It's Fifth Brother. When we found him, his head was already …" Already...

The leader of Man in Black felt as if he was struck by lightning, he then looked at the other person and asked: What is inside?

Yes... Yes...

Seeing him stuttering and unable to utter a word for a long time, the leader of Man in Black felt that the situation was going to get serious, so he pushed the Man in Black away and shook the hemp sack from his mouth.

Plop … Plop …

One after another, heads rolled out from within the bloodstained heads. It was hard to tell what they were. They all fell to the ground.

There were fifteen heads in total, and when the head of the Man in Black saw the scene in front of him, he clenched his fists in anger, and his body involuntarily trembled.

How could this be? What had happened?

We didn't know that when we found Ol 'Five by the river, he was already there without a head. When we looked for its head, we also found someone else's head, fifteen people, fifteen heads, and one … Quite a lot.

How is that possible? We are split up, and even if there were one or two powerful experts among them, it would be impossible for them to kill all of us in such a short amount of time. Furthermore, one of them was dragged out by you for a period of time, I don't believe that they have all reached Starry Sky Level already.

The leader of the Man in Black seemed to have thought of something as he turned and glared at the Cloaked Man.

If he was right and only one or two of those experts were close to the starry sky, then he wouldn't have lost so many people.

Cloaked Man laughed mischievously. What? Are you suspecting that my information is incorrect? I can assure you, there will be no more than four people in their entire team with Star-moon s and above.

So how do you explain the situation?

Cloaked Man released his charming voice and said: "Eh? Am I the one to explain? Don't forget the promise you made to me. I am the one who should talk to you about your own incompetence and incompetence.

Man in Black clenched his fists tightly. If it wasn't for the last bit of reason remaining to suppress the rage in his heart, he would have already smashed Cloaked Man's head apart with a punch.

Boss, I've examined their wounds, and I'm almost certain that they were decapitated in the same way, so it's very likely to be the same person.

The leader of the Man in Black frowned and said in disbelief: "The same person?" Impossible, no one in this world could be so fast.

The Man in Black on the right reminded him: "Boss, did you forget about that person?

You mean him? Impossible, he had already disappeared, and there were even rumors that he was already dead.

The Man in Black on the left hesitated for a moment, and then said: "But if the rumors were to go wrong, he is not dead yet …"

Even if he was still alive, there was no reason for him to have anything to do with Celestial Star Sect. Why did he need to help Celestial Star Sect's people?

Man in Black on the right said: Right now, we can only find the person who killed Ol 'Five and the rest, and only then will we know everything.

Hum, hum, hum … The Cloaked Man suddenly let out a mocking snort of laughter.

The leader of the Man in Black turned to Cloaked Man in anger and asked: What are you laughing at?
