The development of the matter was somewhat beyond Xia Sheng's expectations.

Because he didn't expect that those killers hiding in the bamboo forest had not even made decent resistance, and they had been killed by Pei Yuan's sword!

This is definitely not because these killers are all newcomers like Meng Qi.

But because of Pei Yuan's sword power, it was so powerful!

In the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy is useless, and no sneak attack or assassination is safe!

On that day, in the city lord's mansion in Jinling City, Pei Yuan did not use all his strength to Kang Wuwei and Xia Sheng, or to put it another way, he never had pure murderous intentions towards Xia Sheng.

Xia Sheng didn't know if this was good news, but at least Pei Yuan's existence could indeed overcome all the difficulties and obstacles on the road ahead.

In just a moment, five corpses in different places appeared in front of Xia Sheng's eyes, as well as a useless man whose arms were cut off shoulder-length.

Xia Sheng knew that these six killers were not all that ambushed him in the bamboo forest today.

Because Meng Qi has not appeared yet.

But he still walked forward and came to the only living person on the field, squatted down, and looked at the other party with a smile.

"Who sent you here?"

The black-clothed killer fell in a pool of blood in horror, as if he had not recovered from Pei Yuan's shocking sword, so he forgot what he should do as an assassin as soon as he failed the mission.

So next, Xia Sheng did not expect to hear any answer from him, but instead reached out his hand neatly and took off his chin directly.

Then Xia Sheng pulled out a silver needle from his sleeve, gently stabbed it into the other party's neck, looked at his eyes, and listed it one by one: "Is it the Pei family? Prince? Tianxingyuan? Qin Ran? Wei Zhiyuan? Xu family? Hu Shuo."

But in a moment, Xia Sheng had already told all his possible enemies, and even Xiao Zhen, the mayor of Baima Town, and Yin Shizhen of the Judgment Office, did not miss it.

Unfortunately, until the end, Xia Sheng was unable to get the answer he wanted from the pulse of the black-clad killer. Instead, the smile on his face gradually faded away and his brows frowned.

"Aren't it all? This is interesting"

At the same time when Xia Sheng interrogated the other party, a cold light suddenly rushed from the thorn, but not to hurt Xia Sheng, but towards the killer!

Xia Sheng didn't even blink his eyelids in response to this. Kang Wuwei, who had been guarding him, drew out the long sword at his waist as soon as possible.

In an instant, a desolate bloody intention blew out from the tip of his sword, directly shaking the dagger with a faint green light in the air into pieces. But after all, he was not Pei Yuan. Even with the long sword in his hand, he could not injure people with his sword energy.

Seeing that the fish that had escaped was about to retreat, Pei Yuan snorted coldly.

So a sudden thunder broke out in the forest, and it burst into pieces. It immediately shattered the green bamboos ten feet away, and cut the figure hidden among the lush leaves of the bamboo forest into two pieces in half!

Kang Wuwei slowly pulled the sword to his waist, turned his head, and looked at Pei Yuan with a serious look, even his breathing became a little heavy.

This is the gap between the Sword Emperor and the Sword Lord!

In comparison, Xia Sheng was not surprised by this. He still focused all his attention on the only living mouth, but he could not find a breakthrough for a while.

Immediately afterwards, with a try-and-see attitude, Xia Sheng suddenly changed the way of inquiring and expanded the scope of his target to those around him.

"Is it my father's enemy? The enemy of the Marquis of Weining? The enemy of the Chunqiuyuan? The huh from Shantang?"

When Xia Sheng blurted out the word "Shantang", he clearly felt a completely different fluctuation from his fingers, and the contempt in the killer's eyes also quietly cast a shadow.

So Xia Sheng finally got the answer.

The visitor is the enemy of Shantang!

After a brief surprise, a faint smile appeared on Xia Sheng's face: "That's interesting."

"That day in Osmanthus Lane, was it your people who were also using it?"

"Since it's the enemy of Shantang, why did I come to me? Is it because of Qin Yan, or because I have Shancoding's post in my hand?"

After completely opening the breakthrough, the next questioning came naturally. Then, Xia Sheng asked the last three most important questions.

"Does Wei Gongfeng have any contact with you?"

"Did your people do the death of Mr. Qin?"

"Did you arrange for the people who chased Pingnan Hou from Xiling to Heishui Town?"

It was just a flash of lightning, a complete and clear line had appeared in Xia Sheng's mind. It was not until this time that he suddenly realized that no matter where the force that was enemies of Shantang came out, at least one thing was very clear, that was, in fact, he had an intersection with them very early!

This force has actually exposed their hostility to Shantang. Whether it is assassinating Pingnan Hou to blame Shantang, causing gaps between Shantang and the Judgment Office, or killing Qin Erye, causing turmoil within the Qin family, as well as outsiders' attitude towards Qin Xiaohua, and even assassinating Xia Sheng many times, trying to shake the prestige and status of the Qin family Shantang.

All of this has an invisible hand, step by step, slowly trying to subvert the foundation of Shantang in the Dajin Dynasty. The sinister heart and the secret shape are enough to make people's scalp numb!

Unfortunately, they underestimated Shantang, Qin Xiaohua, and even more underestimated Xia Sheng.

So the next moment, Xia Sheng said directly to Pei Yuan: "Help me catch someone who can speak."

Pei Yuan grinned gently: "I'm also very curious, who dares to blame my Pei family in such a grand manner!"

After saying this, Pei Yuan's figure flashed in place and disappeared. Even if Kang Wuwei wanted to observe the swordsman's control over power up close, he still stood by Xia Sheng's side without moving for half a step.

Ten breaths later, Pei Yuan arrived in front of Xia Sheng again, and in his hand, he was carrying a black-clothed assassin covered in blood.

"Don't worry, I've broken his tendons and leg tendons, and broken all his teeth, so at least I can live longer than this guy."

Xia Sheng nodded, smiled and took the rather miserable killer from Pei Yuan, and said to him with a smile: "I know the rules of your killer world. If it is not a last resort, you must not disclose your employer's information, but at the same time, I also hope you think about what is the first killer's seven-character verse?"

After saying that, Xia Sheng slowly raised his hand and patted the killer who had his arms cut off as if he was lightly slapped.

Immediately afterwards, the man's head broke silently, and until the end, he could not leave a complete corpse.

ps: Thank you for the reward of ‘Bi Luo HuangquanⅫ’1oo, and thank you for the reward of ‘67o2744o4’1oo. The updates these days are not very good, and Mo Yu feels very sorry. Today, he made an exception and decided to update Jiuquan first and then write a paper, so that everyone can do it as early as possible. Another good news is that the publisher has already sent it, but the third and fourth volumes are sent first. I guess one or two or two volumes are soon. I will send it to everyone as soon as I arrive. Friends who have won awards through various methods in our Spring Festival activities before can start looking forward to it. (To be continued.)
