Chapter 807 - 804: Ignorant Bandits (3)
"Let me ask you all, if that person truly wanted you to kill, why would they give you a painting that’s missing features to find someone?" Xuan Ying said, "Moreover, isn’t this scimitar given by that person to you? And they told you to say you’re from the Heavenly Killer Sect?"Upon hearing this, the bandits were instantly dumbfounded and speechless.
"How, how do you know?" After a moment, the bandit leader stammered and asked.
Xuan Ying sneered again, "Where do you really come from, not even knowing about the Heavenly Killer Sect, and do you know what kind of person you’ve blocked today?"
The bandit leader’s expression became tense, "Isn’t the Heavenly Killer Sect a group of assassins in Jianghu? As for who you are, I have no time to know."
"Heh~" Xuan Ying stared at them with an expression of disbelief, "With such stupidity, you deserve to die."
"A Ying, don’t bother speaking more with them." Le Zhao’s helpless voice gently came through.
Upon hearing this, Xuan Ying snorted coldly, about to lower the curtain of the carriage, when the bandit leader suddenly swung a scimitar that directly shot into the carriage.
With reddened eyes, he angrily shouted, "Make yourself clear, otherwise, nobody leaves today!"
This place is quite far from the Government; even if someone reports this, they wouldn’t arrive quickly. Moreover, people from the Government, upon hearing it’s the Heavenly Killer Sect, likely wouldn’t come swiftly; they’d surely delay as much as possible, preferably until everything is "done" before coming to handle it.
Xuan Ying looked at the scimitar stuck into the carriage, his eyes suddenly grew cold, "Don’t force me to solve you this bunch of scoundrels for the Heavenly Killer Sect right now."
One of the small bandits shouted, "What big words, do you know who our leader is? He’s the chief of Mu Xi Mountain, which villager dares to not be submissive? Our leader has killed more people than you’ve eaten rice, don’t threaten our leader."
The other small bandits chimed in, "Exactly, you pretty boy, looking for death!"
"Who—are—you—calling—a—pretty—boy?" Xuan Ying asked almost with a grim face, word by word, though the deeply embedded scimitar in the carriage had been somehow extracted and was directly broken into two pieces.
When those two scraps of metal clattered to the ground, the bandits finally noticed something was unusual.
Before they could react further, the leader’s neck had already fallen into Xuan Ying’s outstretched hand, his face turning purplish red, seemingly about to suffocate in the next instant.
Upon seeing this, the small bandits immediately yelled angrily, "What are you doing, what? Quickly let go of our leader!"
"Just trash, I’m reluctant to lay hands."
Xuan Ying pushed the man away at once, causing the front small bandits to tumble, almost cutting their leader with the scimitar in their hands.
As they scrambled to lift him up, the originally stationary carriage had already whizzed past them.
The small bandits wanted to chase after it one by one, but were stopped by the bandit leader.
He was just one step away from the underworld, their so-called pretty boy, silently not only could break the scimitar but could capture him single-handedly; how could such a person be ordinary?
He gasped for breath and said to the small bandits, "Go, quickly go and find out, what kind of people are these, and what’s going on with the Heavenly Killer Sect."
However dull he was, he sensed something was amiss.
They’re merely bandits from deep in the mountains; if it weren’t for being unable to survive, they surely wouldn’t have come down so easily.
Initially, they came down hoping to score big, unexpectedly encountering a wealthy patron right away, who offered a thousand taels of silver.
