Chapter 77: Three People Want to Kill the Sweeper
Translator: 549690339
The night was as dark as ink, and there was no one else in Spring Rain Pavilion. The man who swept the floor left quietly, and no one noticed.
After roughly identifying the location, a smile appeared on the man’s burnt face. Even though the smile on his face was terrifying, it was obvious that the man was very happy.
The night wind blew, accompanied by a voice, causing the sweeping man who was about to leave to pause for a moment.
“Didn’t we agree not to care? You still have to go.”
The woman in red slowly walked out from behind the man who was sweeping the floor. Although she looked charming, her eyes were filled with sorrow.
When the woman in red appeared, the sweeping man stopped and turned around stiffly. His grip on the broom tightened.
The cold wind blew in between the two of them, blowing the corner of the woman’s clothes. The woman’s expression became more and more resentful.
“There are some things I have to do. I just want to return this thing to the Academy. I don’t care about anything else.”The sweeper raised the broom in his hand and said helplessly.
“You still feel guilty.” The red-clothed woman hit the nail on the head.
‘Yes, I was wrong back then. After so many years, I have already given up a lot, but this is a small chance for me to atone for my sins. “The sweeper man sighed.
As he spoke, his grip on the broom tightened.
“This is the last time.” the sweeper added.
The woman in red didn’t say anything. She clenched her fists in her sleeves. Her fingers were slightly white because she was clenching her fists.
The woman in red only released her grip after the time for half an incense stick to burn.
“The two of us have paid a great price in exchange for the peaceful days we have now. Do you really want everything to go down the drain?”The woman in red asked.
The sweeper fell silent. He didn’t know how to answer, but he didn’t move.
The woman in red gently raised her hand and placed it on her neck. Her thumb and index finger seemed to have pinched something and pulled it out.
That’s a piece of junk
After the skin was removed, there was a burnt face underneath, similar to the man who swept the floor.
“In order to conceal our identities, you and I destroyed our appearances. The ninth princess agreed, and she did it. Shengxian County is far away, but it’s enough for us to live. “The woman in red continued.
“I have to pay this debt, or I won’t be able to live in peace for the rest of my life.”The sweeper let out a long breath and said.
At this moment, the woman in red suddenly put the skin back on her face and restored her original appearance.
She didn’t say anything more and turned to walk into Spring Rain Pavilion.
This action was very strange, but it stunned the sweeper. He could not understand what had happened.
“Go. I’m just telling you the price that might happen, but I can’t stop you. A husband and wife will follow each other. If we really return to the past, I’ll accompany you.”
The voice of the woman in red came from the Spring Rain Pavilion. There was a hint of helplessness in her voice, but more of it was a kind of calmness.
The man was stunned for a while. Finally, he gritted his teeth and left Spring Rain Pavilion with his broom.
Liu Manor.
It was late at night.
Other than Xu Bai and No Flower, everyone else had already fallen asleep.
Outside Liu Xu’s room, a figure flashed past.
The sweeper carried a broom and came to the door. He raised his hand and gently knocked on the door.
A gust of wind blew past.
A few pages flew out from the screen and condensed in the air.
On the page, graceful words appeared and swept toward the man sweeping the floor.
At this moment, the man who was sweeping the floor shook slightly, and the pages of the book flew back into the room. The room was filled with noises, and then fell silent.
The sweeper man was stunned.
Before he could react, the door seemed to have loosened. It had been opened. It was empty inside, and there was a big hole in the ground. “There’s a tunnel?” The corner of the man’s mouth twitched.
Was this something a scholar could do?
Digging a tunnel in his own room, how cautious would he have to be to do that?
He had never thought that a scholar could make such a mechanism. In his mind, it didn’t seem to exist.
“Looks like I have to chase after him.” the sweeper thought.
Just as he was thinking about this, a change occurred and made the man give up on the idea.
The sound of wind was heard, and the speed of the wind was very fast.
The sweeper knew that it was late at night, so he hurriedly drew on the ground with the broom in his hand.
The word ‘silence’ appeared, and the sound of the wind disappeared.
“Scholar?”
The man heard the surprised voice and looked up. He saw a dense light approaching.
A book flew out from his arms and surrounded him.
The golden light landed on the page, and the man took a step back.
“Ding, ding, ding!”
The crisp sound landed on the ground, and the word “quiet” in the air emitted light. This sound was infinitely reduced.
The man looked down and saw a pile of copper coins on the ground.
“What an exquisite hidden weapon technique. It actually forced me to take two steps back. Although he’s only at the 2nd rank, he’s cultivated to the Perfection realm. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to force me back.”
The sweeper thought to himself.
Of course, as soon as he thought of this, he saw a head covered in green light.
“Boom!”
His head hit the page, but the word ” quiet ” in the air lit up again, reducing the volume of the voice.
The sweeper took another step back. When he finally saw Xu Bai and the other two, he shouted,”Wait!” I’m not your…”
That hidden weapon was Xu Bai’s Maple Leaf Rain, and the green light was No
Flower.
Before he could finish speaking, there was movement from Liu Xu’s side. The pages floating around the willow catkins turned yellow, filled with an evil aura.
“Yin Yang Attraction.” Liu Xu pointed at the man sweeping the floor.
This name didn’t fit the image of a scholar.
A sense of drowsiness came over him, and the man who was sweeping the floor was shocked.
“This is…The ability to absorb souls. Aren’t you a scholar?”
Before he could finish his sentence, Xu Bai moved.
No Flower used himself as a shield and hit the sweeper’s back, causing the sweeper to stagger.
And Xu Bail s blade swept past..
Breaking First Style!
Reversal of Yin and Yang!
At this moment, Xu Bai had become ethereal, and it was impossible to tell whether he was real or fake.
The blade landed on the page of the book outside the sweeper’s body.
The man sweeping the floor only felt a surge of power seeping out of his body, and his chest hurt slightly.
He… Was he injured?
How was this possible? Three Rank-8s actually injured him?
He was already at the peak of Rank-7 and was only one step away from Rank-6. How could he fall here?
The man who swept the floor frowned and wanted to activate the page.
However, at this moment, Liu Xu held the Green Cloud Brush and slid it in the air.
The charred pages covered his book and started to pull.
Although it was not strong for him, a moment was enough.
Scholar’s body was not strong to begin with. Now that his body was controlled by No Flower, the pages of the book lost control for a moment.
What made his heart palpitate was Xu Bail s saber.
As long as one was smart, they would be able to seize this moment of loss of control.
With the three of them working together, the sweeper, who was about to become a Level Six expert, was going to be defeated.
At this moment, the sweeper couldn’t help but shout..
