Chapter 40
I’ll Give Him a Way to Die
The night-view outside the window was beautiful.
Liu Xu took advantage of the darkness and walked to the corner of the wall. She wrote the word “light” in the air with a brush and flew out of the Liu residence.
There was no one on the streets in the dark night. Other than the sound of the night watch, the night was completely silent.
From time to time, terrifying cat cries could be heard, as if they were mourning.
The Lin Residence was very famous in Sheng County. There was no need to ask around.
Liu Xu was also from Sheng County. She arrived at the Lin Residence not long after.
Even at night, red lanterns still hung high at the gate.
Two servants were guarding the gates. It seemed like they were prepared to stay up all night.
Liu Xu looked at the corner of the street. She did not choose to enter through the main entrance. Instead, she went to the far-off wall.
No one was guarding this place, and no one passed by.
Liu Xu took out her brush. After looking around, she wrote the word “light” again.
Even though she was dressed in black and her face was covered, her figure was still captivating.
Coupled with the fact that she was flying in the air, her very smooth figure was extremely charming.
In just a moment, Liu Xu had already flown into the Lin Residence and landed steadily on the ground.
Then, an embarrassing scene appeared.
As soon as Liu Xu landed on the ground, she heard a gasp.
Then, she shifted her gaze and stared at the person in front of her in a daze.
Not far from her, a person in ordinary clothes with a cloth covering his face and head was looking at her.
The night breeze was a little cold. The two of them looked at each other and fell silent.
Other than the occasional meow, the surroundings were silent. Other than the awkwardness, Liu Xu also felt a sense of danger.
Her gaze fell on the waist of this mysterious person and saw an ordinary long saber.
Saber?
For the past few days, she had been waiting for her teacher’s letter and didn’t have time to think about this. Now that she suddenly saw the long saber, she couldn’t help but think of the matter regarding Underworld Blacksmith.
Could it be… that this person was the one who killed the Underworld Blacksmith couple?
Liu Xu had a sudden conjecture.
At this moment, the mysterious person also moved.
He did not care about her at all. He found a path and left silently.
This was the first time Liu Xu had seen such a situation.
However, seeing that the other party was also masked and not from the Lin Residence, moreover the current situation was special, she did not care.
After finding another path, Liu Xu also left.
At this moment, there was a strange tacit understanding.
——They minded their own businesses and did not interfere with each other.
…
The dark corner of the wall returned to its original silence.
Xu Bai walked into the Lin Residence and thought of the woman in black he had just met.
How did he know she was a woman?
Bullshit. That figure and shoulders were wide and narrow, and a certain smooth part was obvious at a glance.
To be honest, it was indeed unexpected.
The scene just now was so awkward.
Fortunately, he was sensible and did not linger.
It was more important to settle the matter first. That woman’s attire showed that she was obviously not from the Lin Residence. He would not care about it for the time being. He did not want to make trouble and attract attention.
In that situation just now, there shouldn’t be a fight, right?
With this thought in mind, Xu Bai began to search the Lin Residence again.
The Lin Residence was too big. He wanted to find Lin Fenghua’s room. It was a little difficult to find.
During the search, the two people who had the same idea met a few times.
However, they did not speak to each other. After meeting, they left as if they had never seen each other.
However, their tacit understanding did not last long.
Outside a lighted room, Xu Bai looked at the woman in black. The woman in black looked back at him.
Finally, the woman in black couldn’t take it anymore and said in a slightly low voice, “Are you here to kill too?”
Even if she deliberately pretended to be hoarse, her voice was clear.
When Xu Bai heard this, he nodded silently. At the same time, he pretended to have a hoarse and dull voice. “You too?”
Liu Xu nodded.
The two of them fell silent again. It was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
Damn it, things had already exceeded his expectations.
At least from Xu Bai’s perspective, this was something that was not part of his plan.
“Why don’t we… do it together?” Xu Bai said something shocking.
Liu Xu didn’t know what was going on in her head, but she nodded subconsciously.
She was also very helpless. How could she still meet someone at this?
It was fine if she met someone, but the key was that he had the same intention as her.
Together?
Let’s do it together for now.
Thinking of this, Liu Xu rubbed her eyebrows.
——Her head hurt.
The two of them reached a temporary agreement. Without saying anything, they quietly came to a window.
Xu Bai raised his long saber and pierced a small hole in the window. He looked over.
The room was brightly lit. Many oil lamps were lit up, and they illuminated the entire room.
Looking through the small hole, he could see a young man sitting in the house with a naked woman in his arms.
The man was good-looking, but he exuded a silkpants aura from the inside out. His hand brushed across the woman’s body. He was either already done or he hadn’t started.
Liu Xu pushed Xu Bai’s shoulder, indicating that she also wanted to see.
Xu Bai made a gesture, indicating if she really had to see it.
Liu Xu nodded without hesitation.
At this point, what else could she not see?
After Xu Bai stepped aside, Liu Xu moved closer to the small hole. She quickly lowered her head and glared at Xu Bai.
‘You were the one who insisted on seeing it,’
Xu Bai thought.
The two of them stayed outside the window, and a sound came from inside the window.
“Young Master Lin, I heard that the officials said that once you are healed, they will send you to jail.”
From the voice, it was the woman who spoke.
Soon, Lin Fenghua said, “It’s just for show. Let’s not talk about anything else. My Lin family has given that county magistrate many things. Moreover, if the county magistrate wants to be promoted, he will need to depend on my Lin family.”
As he spoke of this, Lin Fenghua’s tone was filled with pride.
As if because of this sentence, he became interested and started talking again.
“Sigh, now that you mention it, I remember. What a pity for that young lady. You don’t know how it feels…”
“Hahaha, Young Master Lin, the little girl doesn’t understand as much as I do…”
Outside the window, Liu Xu clenched her fists, her eyes spitting fire.
Xu Bai was different. His expression was extremely gloomy, like ten-thousand-year-old ice.
Liu Xu glanced at Xu Bai and lowered her head. She moved closer to Xu Bai and lowered her voice. “Let’s go in and kill him.”
She really couldn’t take it anymore.
He could still be so arrogant after breaking the law. He was simply looking down on the laws of the Great Chu Country.
“It’s not good to kill him directly. Both you and I will leave traces behind,” Xu Bai said as he moved closer to Liu Xu.
The two of them only spoke when they were close and lowered their voices. Liu Xu was not used to it.
Upon hearing Xu Bai’s words, Liu Xu wanted to say that she wasn’t afraid and that it would be difficult to find her if she did it cleanly.
Even if she was found out, she had support.
However, at the thought of causing trouble for the Academy, she still asked.
“Do you have a way to not leave a trace?”
“I’ll give him a way to die.” Xu Bai listened to the sounds in the room and revealed a sinister smile.
For some reason, Liu Xu could not help but shiver.
It was very cold, as if she could see countless souls pouncing at her.
Still…
Give him a way to die?
She was suddenly interested.
What kind of way was it?
