After walking for most of the night, a village finally appeared in front of everyone. They knocked on the door of a house and stayed overnight.
Early the next morning, Li Xuan hired a large truck in the village and the team was back on the road.
After last night's fierce battle, most of the trip was delayed. I'm afraid it will take another whole day to reach Yuexi Town.
That night, while resting in a small town one hundred kilometers away from Yuexi Town, Li Xuan quietly sneaked out of the town alone, got on the six-winged flying dragon, and headed straight for Wangxi Town fifty kilometers away.
Wangxi Town is about a hundred kilometers away from the border of Southern Tang Dynasty. The entire town is located on a small hill. Standing in any corner of the town, you can vaguely see the Yue River in the distance, hence its name.
In the town of Wangxi, there is a luxurious manor. The owner is engaged in winemaking and has hired hundreds of workers to make wine for him. There is also a huge wine cellar that contains many years of fine wine.
Not only near Luoyi City, but also nobles from as far away as Fengjing City and Tiewan City often send people here to buy fine wine.
But what few people know is that the owner of the manor is not only a professional winemaker, but also a member of the notorious Blood Drop Killer Group. His code name is: Drunkard.
"Langya, you are actually injured, it's really strange."
The drunkard was a very young man, his face was a little pale, and he was playing with a beautiful amber cup in his hand.
The cup was filled with soju and was shaking slightly, reflecting his eyes as red as blood.
If it were in the past, Lang Ya would definitely be furious when he heard such teasing from a drunkard, and he might even have a real duel with a drunkard.
However, he was in such a sorry state now, with scars all over his body, and the magic weapon Shadow Talisman was thrown away to save his life. His strength was greatly reduced, and he could not find the confidence to lose his temper with a drunkard.
"My brother is dead."
Langya sat down dejectedly and said without tears.
"Xueyu is dead?"
Although the drunkard was gloating about his misfortune, he was still surprised when he heard the news, "You joined forces and failed so miserably. Who is the other party?
Is it a golden elixir?
Then you are asking for your own death."
"Bah... that bastard Meng Lan clearly said that boy is a student of Jixia College. How did I know that he would be so powerful, and his methods are so vicious that he is not even willing to explode a precious magic weapon like a purple gold alms bowl."
When Langya thought of Li Xuan, he gritted his teeth with hatred, almost breaking two of his fangs.
"Students of Jixia College... you must have been fooled."
The drunkard shook his head, "That guy Meng Lan is very cunning. If he is really just an ordinary student, why would he spend a lot of money to hire you brothers to take action?"
"Meng Lan, this bastard, I will definitely settle the score with him when I get rid of that kid."
Langya slapped the table hard, but the movement was too big and the scab on the wound was torn. He grinned in pain.
"You'd better bandage it first so as not to stain my place."
The drunkard stretched out his hand and pulled a string, and soon a pretty maid opened the door and walked in.
"Bandage the wound of Wolf Fang."
said the drunkard.
The maid fetched a medical kit, which contained various trauma elixirs and bandages. She bandaged it up with ease. Judging from her skillful appearance, she must have done this kind of thing often.
In fact, the manor owned by the drunkard was the contact point for the killer group between the Spring and Autumn Empire and the Southern Tang Dynasty.
Whenever there is a major mission, the killers will use this place as a stronghold to secretly plot their assassination plans.
On the surface, the drunkard is a wealthy manor owner and winemaker, but secretly he is the youngest third-level killer of the Blood Drop Killer Group, and is as powerful as Langya Xueyu and others.
And the dozens of workers and servants in the manor are all killers, and they are agile and much more powerful than ordinary bodyguards.
If it is a normal killing task, the drunkard can just send his subordinates to handle it, and there is almost no need to take action personally.
But this time, the drunkard also felt the seriousness of the matter.
Xue Yu is a third-level killer of the Blood Drop Killer Group. He died here, and the drunkard has the responsibility and obligation to help Langya deal with the aftermath.
The first priority in the aftermath is to complete Xue Yu's unfinished tasks.
Thinking of how difficult that goal was, the drunkard frowned slightly. He had a character that was neither profitable nor early, and he didn't have a deep friendship with the Lang Ya Xue Yu brothers. It was not easy for him to fight for it.
"Sss... be gentler!"
Langya suddenly screamed strangely and pushed the maid who was bandaging his wounds to the ground.
The maid knelt down in horror: "Lord Langya, please forgive me."
"Langya, don't take it out on the maid."
The drunkard said displeasedly, "This is my favorite person. If you hurt him, I will kick you out."
"That bastard, I must kill him!"
Langya glared at the drunkard and kicked the maid away, "Go away, you clumsy guy."
The maid left obediently, and after she closed the door, only Langya and the drunkard were left in the secret room.
"Drunkard, you have to help me this time.
We can definitely kill that kid if we work together."
Langya said angrily, "He took away my shadow amulet. I have to get it back."
The drunkard shrugged his shoulders: "I don't want to take risks. You and Xueyu failed so miserably together, so why should I bring trouble to myself?"
Langya gritted his teeth and said, "If you are willing to help me kill that kid and take back the Shadow Talisman, I am willing to share Xueyu's property with you."
"Do you know where Xue Yu's money is hidden?"
The drunkard's eyes lit up.
"Of course, he is my half-brother."
Langya said bitterly, "If you don't agree, I will go to Yuexi Town to find Chazi for help. He will definitely be willing."
"I promise you."
The drunkard chuckled and said, "Xueyu has at least two to three hundred thousand yuan in property. Such a large amount of money is enough to make me desperate."
"Okay, let's go after I recover from my injuries.
Those guys are going to Yuexi Town, and we have to take action before Fork targets them."
Langya said excitedly.
"no problem.
If I take action, they are already dead."
The drunkard opened his mouth slightly, and the wine in the glass shot out like an arrow and penetrated into his mouth.
When Li Xuan appeared in Wangxi Town, it happened to be midnight when the night was darkest.
The entire Wangxi Town was immersed in a sweet sleep, quiet and peaceful, with no trace of a vicious killer gang lurking here.
The six-winged flying dragon flapped its wings and landed. Li Xuan jumped off the back of the six-winged flying dragon, patted its head and let it move freely.
"Is this the manor that Zhao Rui is talking about?"
The place where the six-winged flying dragon landed happened to be the drunkard's luxurious manor.
The manor was surrounded by a high fence to guard against thieves and wild beasts. Li Xuan jumped in and started walking around as if there was no one else around.
