Chapter 115

Under the moon.

Guan Changling lay on the ground, his face toward the direction of the Maitreya Hall, his eyes already losing their luster, and blood flowing from his mouth.

Hai Donglai sat on the threshold of the Maitreya Hall, his lips purple and his breathing heavy.

Cheng Xiazi sat beside him, untied his wine gourd, and poured a line of strong liquor onto the wound on his thigh.

"Hiss!!"

Cheng Xiazi's face wrinkled into a ball, "Worthy of being Yuhua wine."

A good wine that can be used directly to light a fire.

The feeling of this pouring onto the wound was truly extraordinary.

Zheng Hui leaned against the door frame, barely raising his eyelids to look around, and suddenly said, "He's back."

Seeing Chu Tianshu was covered in blood, carrying a human head as he jumped over the high wall; when he landed, he stumbled slightly.

The force of the Arhat Shaking Foot was too fierce, even mixed with Palm Thunder; having shaken his way over like that, his two feet were a bit sore.

"I chased him all the way to Cuiyan Slope before I dragged him back."

Seeing Chu Tianshu glanced at Guan Changling and smiled, "You guys were quite fast."

Cheng Xiazi said, "I don't know what's wrong with this guy; his moves didn't look too sharp at first, but his endurance was surprisingly strong."

"I wounded him in several places, but he looked fine; once he turned his hand, he almost slit my throat, split my head, and broke my thigh."

Hai Donglai said slowly, "I had long wanted to have a full battle with Guan Changling; it wasn't convenient before, but tonight I finally saw his style."

Guan Changling might not be able to win quickly against someone weaker than himself.

But even against someone stronger than him, it was very likely that he would be the one who survived in the end.

"Fortunately, that sword of yours stabbed the back of his head."

Cheng Xiazi said, "The fact that you are not good at using a sword was indeed a lie to him."

Hai Donglai coughed and said, "I really don't practice the sword much, but that move, I imitated the sword technique leader of Chang'an back then."

Seeing Chu Tianshu had already walked close, crossed the threshold, and placed Duan Zhong's head on the offering table.

He straightened several crooked spirit tablets, put his palms together, closed his eyes, and bowed.

Hai Donglai and the others also stood up and looked at this scene.

Seeing Chu Tianshu turned around and looked at the coffins outside.

"At Cuiyan Slope, I used Lord Hai's tone and mentioned this place."

"There might be some busybodies coming to check later; who among you is staying here to handle it?"

Hai Donglai said indifferently, "I think I'm dying, I'm going back to drink medicine."

Zheng Hui's mouth twitched.

Having spent time together recently, he also understood.

If Hai Donglai were really dying, he probably wouldn't mention the word "death" at all.

"Of course it should be me to handle it."

Zheng Hui forced a smile, "It doesn't take much effort for me to handle this; besides, among the busybodies, there must be the monarch, right?"

"Once he comes, I have my own words to tell him, and then I'll save some effort."

Seeing Chu Tianshu took out a few needles and silently stuck them next to his wounds.

"Fine, once Yi Mou-xun is almost here, we'll slip away."

He rubbed his hands again, and two handfuls of silver needles were stuck into Hai Donglai and Zheng Hui's bodies.

Rising and falling, the silver needles shimmered.

He was distracted and used two tasks at once, sticking different acupuncture points on each.

Cheng Xiazi was more convenient; he just shot a needle casually to stop the pain slightly.

After Seeing Chu Tianshu finished sticking them and just took back his Three-Seven Divine Sword, his ears moved slightly.

"Looks like it's time to go."

The three of them passed through the Maitreya Hall and went to the Great Heroic Hall side again.

Seeing Chu Tianshu leaped up and pulled out the Phoenix-Wing Gilded Halberd.

"You also have a hobby of collecting weapons?"

Hai Donglai looked at this evil weapon that was still unconvinced, "It really is a good thing."

Seeing Chu Tianshu said, "I don't like collecting weapons; I just like to blast away evil souls."

"This thing can't be destroyed for a while; I'll take it back to the Zheng mansion to grind it slowly."

Seeing Chu Tianshu looked back at the Maitreya Hall side and already heard Zheng Hui meeting Yi Mou-xun and exchanging greetings.

The three of them slipped away quietly from the back, and they didn't encounter any obstacles along the way.

The night had not yet faded, and most places in the Wang Cheng were quiet.

Every household was closed and sleeping soundly.

Many people would heatedly discuss the duel between Hai Donglai and Duan Zhong, but there were not many ordinary people who would really run to watch.

It would probably be until daytime, when those saber-wielders came back to spread the news, that the marketplace would become bustling.

Seeing Chu Tianshu carried the Phoenix-Wing Gilded Halberd and strolled on the empty and quiet street.

The pleasure of a satisfying battle not only didn't fade, but after settling, it became even more comfortable.

"Coming in a hurry, leaving in a hurry, hating that we cannot meet; loving in a hurry, hating in a hurry, everything follows the wind... laughing wildly..."

Seeing Chu Tianshu hummed a little tune and suddenly heard Hai Donglai speak from the side.

"Since today's matter is done, it is your reputation, so it should belong to you!"

Seeing Chu Tianshu smiled, "It doesn't matter."

"Sometimes, I really want a reputation and care about what I have in my hands."

"But sometimes, I care more about being able to make this world have a little less of something."

He had just taken a look and found that after the energy bar was full, in this world, he indeed only had three days of stay time.

He was almost about to run away, so what was the use of a reputation?

It had to be the reputation in his hometown world that Seeing Chu Tianshu would value more.

Cheng Xiazi took a gulp of Yuhua wine and felt deeply about Seeing Chu Tianshu's words just now.

"Not bad, the world has one less person doing evil, at least it..."

He walked, muttering for a while, seeming to smile and sigh.

"At least it, has one less person doing evil."

Seeing Chu Tianshu heard this and couldn't help but laugh, "What a literary sentence."

"But today's battle should be equivalent to, when pulling up a tree, incidentally breaking the roots of a whole bunch of poisonous weeds around it."

Seeing Chu Tianshu thought for a moment, "So, if you want to clear away certain things, finding this kind of target is very cost-effective."

"When you slash over with a saber, what you cut off is not only living people, but also many invisible things."

Cheng Xiazi smiled, "It's not me slashing over with a saber, it's you slashing over with a sword."

Although he said that, the sigh he had inexplicably raised earlier also disappeared.

This night, he would remember it until the end of his life, right?

Hai Donglai seemed to still be lingering on his previous thoughts.

"You don't want fame, but you like blasting away evil souls."

Hai Donglai said, "Then come with me to Chang'an."

Seeing Chu Tianshu was a bit puzzled, "Chang'an?"

"I like collecting evil weapons."

Hai Donglai said softly, "In my mansion, there is a room filled with evil weapons, totaling fourteen pieces."

"I often sit there, experiencing the feeling that everything around me is cold malice, wanting to devour me, kill me, yet unable to move me."

"That makes me very happy."

Seeing Chu Tianshu's eyes lit up, "Fourteen evil weapons! Actually, I..."

He was just about to explain that he didn't just like destroying the souls of evil weapons.

But because that was good for his cultivation.

Even if Hai Donglai only wanted to give one or two.

Seeing Chu Tianshu gave a reason, plus the saying of using evil weapons to offset the medical treatment reward, he should be able to get them all.

But before he finished speaking, Hai Donglai said, "I'll give them all to you."

Seeing Chu Tianshu was slightly surprised, "Just because I like destroying evil weapons, you give them all to me; don't you feel it's a pity?"

"Is there any other reason needed?"

Hai Donglai asked back.

"If I like it, that's enough; everything I've done in my life is because I like it."

"This time I want to repay you, of course, I'll look at your preferences."

Seeing Chu Tianshu looked at his matter-of-fact appearance, and after a long while, couldn't help but laugh and click his tongue.

"Hai Donglai, you guy, you live too comfortably; it's worth learning."
