Chapter 083: Savior Shixian (Second Update)

  "Huff, huff, finally found it."

  "Great, great, both Youji and Yu Shizi are actually here."

  "Boss, our people have been found, and surprisingly, both of them fell into the trap."

  "What a great opportunity! This time we can finally catch them, and our contribution will be the greatest."

  Su Mo's eyebrows jumped slightly as he heard their words, and it was clear that there were more than one group of people who came here.

  Among them, one of them was the one who had been lurking near the government office last night. Last night, he saw his subordinates leading Yu Ran and Su Mo into this deep forest, and then the three people never came out again. He felt that something was wrong, so he immediately reported it to his superiors, and then brought a group of people to search for them. Unexpectedly, what they saw was such a scene, especially when they saw Yu Ran and Su Mo unable to move. It seemed that they could only surrender obediently. Someone brought a portrait in front of the two of them, and then compared it carefully, with an extremely serious expression.

  "No mistake, it's indeed Youji and Yuzhen. It wasn't a waste of our time searching for them in the woods for so long."

  Upon seeing this, Su Mo revealed a faint smile. The portrait was obviously painted by a famous painter, and the person must have seen Yu Ran and Su Mo in the imperial palace. Unlike ordinary wanted posters with just a few strokes, Su Mo and Yu Ran were both peerless beauties, difficult for people to depict or paint. However, the depiction of their facial features did bear about 70-80% resemblance.

  At this moment, Su Mo's flying eyes were as charming as spring breeze, knowing that these people must have come prepared.

  If I'm not mistaken, it must have a great deal to do with the Third Prince and Xia Xue'er.

  And then she heard a rustling sound with her divine sense, as well as the sound of cold weapons slashing through the grass and leaves.

  This time, the crowd that came was different from before. These people's footsteps were neat and light, and upon listening, they were obviously well-trained, with everyone having abundant internal energy, full of spirit and vitality, and at the pinnacle of innate abilities.

  Su Mo's lips curled up, his eyebrows floated with a thick layer of color, and he muttered: "I didn't expect there to be forty people in total!"

  Forty well-trained natural-born killers, without knowing the depth of their own abilities, came to deal with her and Yu Ran, this indeed was enough to show how much they valued her.

  Although Su Mo didn't take the forty men seriously and thought it was impossible for so many enemies to appear in the forest, she still underestimated them, or rather, even a wise person can make mistakes, and this time she misjudged.

  If it weren't for their own and Yu Ran's appearance being truly unexpected, they would probably still be looking for a group of helpers to come over.

  Everyone's face was excited, their eyes wide open, some grasping their weapons, others rubbing their fists.

  Finally, Yu Ran and Su Mo surrounded the fallen Yu Ran in a trap, but did not make any rash moves.

  Until the arrival of a man in black clothes.

  Then some people immediately stood on both sides and behind the man in black.

  Each of them had a solemn expression, grasping their swords, as if waiting for his command.

  After the man in black appeared, his tone was different from others and he spoke in a very authentic Qi State Mandarin.

  Su Mo's gaze drifted away, her eyes carrying a bewitching aura as they slowly came to rest on the black-clad figure. She narrowed her eyes, and suddenly had a vague recollection of having seen this person in her past life. As for where exactly? Su Mo pondered for a moment before finally recalling that she had seen him at the Korean palace many years ago.

  He should be Korean, and she also knew his secret identity, but didn't expect to meet him here. So, she narrowed her eyes and calmly said: "Who are you?"

  The man in black slowly looked at her and said coldly, "It doesn't matter who we are. As long as you obediently wait for death here, that's all."

  Su Mo suddenly smiled elegantly, her beautiful eyes shining with an enchanting light, accompanied by a shallow smile that seemed to hold a hint of expectation. She spoke slowly and calmly: "If you spare us, I can give you something far more valuable than this mission, something worth hundreds or thousands of times more. What do you say?"

  Everyone looked at each other in dismay, they knew that Jin Yutang was as rich as a country.

  Indeed, the beauty of the female demon in front of them was enchanting, but they were obviously more interested in the reward.

  Money, power, beauty, there is always one thing that people like.

  Seeing everyone's intention move, Su Mo's absolutely beautiful smile was drawn out, and then asked: "Will you consider it?"

  The man in black let out a cold snort and said in an icy tone, "I only want your life."

  Still with some Korean accent in his speech.

  At this time, Su Mo had already perfectly analyzed some results in her heart. The black-clothed man in front of her was a man who subtly exuded a bloody aura, and he should be ruthless and decisive, with a cruel wrist when dealing with enemies, never showing mercy. Moreover, he didn't care whether Su Mo had any treasures or not, clearly this person was someone with a cold and unfeeling nature. Of course, in such an unfavorable situation, she could only use people's desires, employing the tactic of attacking his heart, but this kind of person was extremely difficult to deal with, or rather, neither beauty nor wealth could easily move his tough and cold heart.

  "Why?" At this time, Su Mo deliberately blinked his eyes and pretended to be puzzled.

  The man in black sneered coldly and said stiffly, "How foolish. It's because of you two that my brother is now motionless and almost a useless person. He told me to make you pay ten times over, so I've taken matters into my own hands this time. You two absolutely have no hope of escaping."

  "Oh? So you're actually the elder brother of the Xia family?" Su Mo's eyes sparkled as she smiled and asked.

  "Not bad, he is my brother, but I am not a Xia family member." The man in black said coldly, "Besides, no elder of the Xia family has ever been treated with such brutal beating. As long as you are alive, it's an insult to my brother, so you must die."

  Someone next to him asked, "By the way, will this Yu Shizi be killed? This person's identity is a bit troublesome."

  Peerless City! The man in black hesitated immediately, his eyes somewhat hesitant.

  This person is actually a thorny figure, and it would have been better to leave him for others to deal with. He also wants to kill someone by borrowing a knife.

  However, Yu Ran's expression turned icy as she said, "If you dare to touch a single hair on her head, I, Yu Ran, swear that every soldier in Wuyuan City will hunt you down to the ends of the earth, and your entire family will be killed, leaving no place for you to rest in death."

  Everyone shuddered at this, and the man in black immediately said coldly: "In that case, you can die together too."

  Yu Chen's expression turned resolute as he said, "Why don't you deal with me first, then deal with her?"

  Everyone attaches great importance to their own life, Su Mo couldn't help but gaze at her, "Yu Ran, why must you?"

  "Shut up and listen to me." Yu Ran's tone was unmistakable.

  Su Mo couldn't help but look at Yu Ran sideways, staring at him for a long time without saying a word.

  Yu Ran hung a gentle smile and looked back at Su Mo, "Don't worry, even if I can die with you, what's the harm? If you die, what meaning is there for me to live?"

  Su Mo was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help but think of Wenren Yi's similar situation in his master's sword array.

  ……

  In the distance, a handsome man with a flirtatious smile on his lips put down a wooden telescope by his side and slowly stretched his waist. He couldn't help but mutter: "These two people are quite capable of stirring up trouble, now they've attracted so many people, it's likely to be more harm than good."

  "This... how can this be good?" Xiaofeng's face looked rather unsightly.

  Although his spiritual consciousness was strong, he couldn't see or hear clearly from too far away, and he also couldn't leave without permission.

  "Young man, be light as a feather and calm as a mountain." Hua Xirong slowly swept him with her eyes.

  "It is." Xiaofeng didn't feel calm, but rather a headache.

  "Hmm, it seems that the black-clothed person should have some skills. If I'm not mistaken, he's a master of the Tempering Body stage and is close to reaching the Condensing Pulse stage." Huā Xī Róng's fingertips lightly stroked her smooth chin, her voice as clear and melodious as a guqin: "Last night, I fought this demoness, and according to her strength, she should be able to handle it."

  "Can she handle these people?" Xiaofeng asked hastily.

  Suddenly, Hua Xiangyong hesitated for a moment and thought that the demon girl's method seemed to be the same as Su Family's Fourth Young Master's method back then.

  Moreover, Yao Ji followed Wen Ren Yi, and the four young masters of the Su family also followed Wen Ren Yi.

  He thought for a moment and felt that the demon girl was probably someone from the Su family.

  At this time, Hua Xirong changed to a comfortable posture, gazing deeply into the distance and said: "If those two mechanical puppets were still around, it should be possible to deal with them, but they've already been destroyed by me." His eyes seemed somewhat cold as he spoke, as if waiting for a good show.

  "Prince... but she's been tied up by the organization."

  "Yes! Unfortunately, both of them were tied up, now only the tied-up child is good for beating."

  "That... is nothing compared to what I've been through."

  "And you, are not allowed to go anywhere." Huā Xī Róng said with a sly and charming smile, "Otherwise, I will strangle your neck."

  Xia Feng suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. This man was indeed ruthless and would stop at nothing to get what he wanted, and he always kept his promises.

  At this moment, Hua Xirong continued to smile slyly, but her eyes were cold and indifferent: "Actually, the young master of Wuduan City is not that unbearable, there are always some special ways to save his life, it's just a pity that he was tied up. However, in this world, there is no 100% safety guarantee, if the opponent throws poison or sets fire, or simply lets him starve here, in the end, he can only wait for death."

  "Master Huan, Master Huan, will you arrive in time? If these two people die, it won't be my fault, it'll all be yours."

  ……

  On the other hand, the atmosphere was already tense, with everyone drawing their swords and pointing them at the two people in the trap.

  "The man in black stepped forward and said: 'Is there anything you want to say before you die?'"

  At this time, Su Mo still had an enchanting expression, with a lazy and arrogant look, her jet-black long hair fluttering at the side of her neck, looking extremely seductive. She suddenly said lightly: "Are you sure you really want to kill me? Don't you ask about my identity?"

  At this time, Su Mo's mouth was speaking extremely standard Korean language.

  Su Mo's voice was clear and sweet, with a faintly provocative smile on his lips, his eyes also had the same gentle charm as Korean women, his tone seemed like a Korean woman's coquettishness, "Was it King Han who sent you?"

  In an instant, the expression on the other person's face changed constantly. The black-clothed man did not expect the other party to suddenly mention Han Wang. At this moment, he even found that the demon girl's demeanor had also changed. Although the other party could not move, her tone and her smile and frown were surprisingly similar to those of Han Wang!

  Was she really hiding something?

  He couldn't help but suspect that she might be a spy for the Korean king?

  The man in black was stunned, and Yu Ran was also stunned for a moment.

  "Actually, I met you in the secret room of King Han, and this time you came out to kill me, probably on your own initiative?" Su Mo's eyes seemed to flash with a hint of anger, thinking that although she knew in her previous life that this person was acting on behalf of King Han, and his appearance here might also be under King Han's orders, she boldly disguised herself as someone else, thoroughly deceiving him. As a woman skilled in disguise, she quickly became immersed in her new role.

  After all, she had also been a concubine of King Han in those years and knew some secrets.

  The man's face stiffened, "You demoness, what are you talking about? How did you know?"

  "How could I not know? You must be here to see the current state of Qi Guo. After all, the appearance of the demon has caused a great commotion in the world, and many are paying attention to it. Of course, my purpose for coming here is also this." She smiled lightly with her red lips, "However, what brings you here? Could it be that King Han doesn't trust me, and doesn't believe I can complete the task? But King Han has always been one to doubt people before using them, and use people without doubting them. Or perhaps he has other arrangements, so he sent Your Excellency over as well?" She split off a thread of her divine consciousness to check how many more weapons she could manipulate in the Heavenly Book.

  Butterfly previously used too much on that person, now there are only twenty-five left.

  The flying needles were damaged in over ten places and could hardly be used.

  The Twin Blades of Male and Female can be used, but they cannot deal with so many people at once.

  The mechanical puppet beast has been damaged and is completely unusable.

  How hateful! What is she supposed to do now?

  Su Mo's mind flashed with over a dozen plans, all of which were ultimately rejected. The black-clad man in front of her was relatively strong, and she had too few magical tools.

  If she is unscathed today, tomorrow she will have to cast countless dharmas and wear them on her body.

  At this time, the black-clad man's cold and stern face was like a layer of frost, his lips incredulously saying: "What kind of person are you?"

  "I'm just like you, whether you believe it or not. But if you take me down, I think you'll definitely regret it." Su Mo still smiled calmly, her eyes fixed steadily on the man in black, knowing she could only stall for a while, hoping that this brief moment would be enough.

  The man hesitated thoroughly, his gaze scrutinizing Su Mo for a long time, unsure whether or not to make a move.

  "Get lost." Suddenly, Su Mo's soft and enchanting voice was laced with a cold and ruthless killing intent. Although the mysterious man from yesterday was someone she couldn't deal with herself, these people, she would fight to the death to take care of them.

  The words fell, Su Mo's long and beautiful fingertips snapped, and her divine consciousness suddenly opened up. Twenty-five butterflies flew out quickly, each one arranged in the most useful place possible, such as between two or three people, she wanted to make the enemy lose their combat effectiveness to the greatest extent.

  "Rumbling", an explosion sounded, full firepower opened.

  The surrounding trees were also blown open, a piece of flesh and blood. Only the flames jumped up, the trees on all sides had been ignited by the hot wind from the fire.

  Su Mo narrowed his eyes and calculated: thirty people, thirty-five people, forty people, forty-five people...

  Very good, very good, almost all combat power has been paid off, only three people are lightly injured, and that black-clothed person is currently unscathed.

  Su Mo immediately manipulated the male and female twin swords, flying quickly towards the man to stab him.

  The man leapt up, holding a shield in defense. In an instant, the small blue sword transformed into two swords that surrounded him on both sides.

  The black-clothed man dodged, but couldn't help being shocked and pale. "My brother said your butterfly was impressive, I didn't think the law enforcement would be so fierce too. These male and female double swords must be mid-grade spiritual artifacts of the fourth rank, but they're still slightly inferior when it comes to dealing with me."

  The sword fell, and the small sword had already pierced his back heart. However, the opponent was wearing a top-grade scale armor, Su Mo's sword was just an ordinary product of casual craftsmanship, so it did not completely pierce through.

  The man in black turned pale and said coldly: "At this moment, you must die."

  The words fell, and the man in black rushed over, his movements as swift as lightning, his long sword sharp and quick, directly stabbing to kill.

  Head-on, a fierce sword wind suddenly struck.

  Su Mo saw the sword getting closer and closer in her pupil, secretly resenting the person who destroyed her two mechanical puppets today.

  Otherwise, what is lost now is certainly not oneself, but one has already felt the sword tip pointing at one's forehead.

  At the same time, Yu Ran's unparalleled anger had triggered a burst of thunderous energy all over his body.

  Up high, that charming man smiled and said, "Heh heh, you've finally decided to take action. Yu Shizi's move was quite impressive, but afterwards, he'll probably be unconscious for ten days or half a month."

  Just at this critical moment, a pleasant male voice suddenly came, "Halt, who are you? This is my territory."

  Then, a mechanical arm blocked the sword of the man in black. The man in black raised his eyes and saw a wooden mechanical person.

  "Looking for death." The man in black immediately had a strange expression, and then drew his sword to slash away. However, the mechanical person suddenly disappeared.

  In the midst of a blurry haze, only the man's voice as clear as a spring water echoed again: "That was just a servant, not worthy of your chopping wood skills."

  "You actually said I'm a firewood worker, what's your intention?" The man in black frowned.

  "It seems you must be an assassin, why don't I let others in our organization deal with you instead?"

  Suddenly, three huge mechanical puppets appeared in the forest. The black-clothed man's face changed because he had never seen such a terrifying mechanical beast before. One was a giant mechanical centipede, with one hundred legs moving rapidly, its head held high as if ready to pounce at any moment. Next to it was an extremely agile mechanical scorpion, lifelike and every joint in motion, the venomous stinger on its tail truly frightening. The other was a mechanical snake, its fangs bared, its diamond-shaped pupils staring at him like real eyes, even emitting a "hissing" sound from its mouth.

  These monstrous creatures, any one of which could kill ten of me, so the man in black changed his expression and hastily said: "Senior, senior is actually a high-ranking person from where?"

  "Oh? Are you no longer prepared to fight?" asked the voice with a clear tone.

  "With seniors present here, I dare not act rashly. May I ask who you are?" The man in black hastily sheathed his sword and stood with clasped hands.

  "I'm just the master of this place." At this time, a snow-white and elegant figure walked out from behind the organ.

  He is a man, an absolutely beautiful man.

  He was seen holding a pale green paper umbrella in his hand, wearing a noble white brocade robe with a subtle glow of cold moonlight emanating from him. His black hair was casually scattered behind him, without any hairpins or ornaments, only tied loosely at the shoulder with a silver hairband. A crystal butterfly mask covered only his eyes, revealing a face as beautiful as jade, carved like a knife. His demeanor exuded unparalleled elegance and refinement, captivating people's attention at a glance. Though gentlemen are like jade, he was an extraordinary, warm, and elegant treasure, like the He Shi Bi.

  At this moment, the man in black never thought that such a refined man would actually produce such a terrifying three mechanical beasts.

  However, when Su Mo saw his mechanical beast from the start, his face had already changed color.

  At this time, she looked at the man in front of her, with a white dress fluttering, elegant and refined, with an extraordinary handsome face, a clear and elegant figure, as well as a poetic and picturesque temperament, and a warm and elegant smile that always lingered on his lips.

  She never expected to run into him again.

  And it was at this time that I met him.

  Digression

  Cough cough, I'm guilty again, stuck in a place that's not where I should be. Seeing the time is up, I'll just rush to post this anyway.
