Chapter 647

In Su Xiao's current state, although he had combat power, his combat power dropped significantly because his mana was exhausted.

Blue Steel Shadow could not be used, the energy shield could not be used, and the equipment's attached abilities could not be used. But this didn't mean Su Xiao had completely lost his combat power; most of his abilities were passive skills.

Walking toward the bottom of the valley, the battle in the valley had stopped.

"Have they already fled?"

Su Xiao walked into the valley. The Shadow Beast Porcupine was lying on his back on the ground, his throat cut by Machi's Nen threads.

"Save... save me."

Porcupine's pupils trembled, and his will to survive made him crawl up.

"Which direction did the enemy flee in? This thing can save your life."

Su Xiao squatted in front of Porcupine, holding a bottle of intermediate alchemy potion in his hand.

"West... west side."

"Lying. You're useless."

Su Xiao stood up and ignored Porcupine. The opponent didn't know which direction Shizuku and Machi had fled in; he was just lying to survive. This level of lie is easily exposed.

"Don't give up on me, I... I can still be saved. We are companions."

"Companions?"

Su Xiao, who was walking out of the valley, stopped and turned to look at Porcupine.

"Right, companions. You are also a subordinate of the Ten Dons, so..."

"Who told you I am a subordinate of the Ten Dons?"

Su Xiao walked out of the valley. Porcupine was severely injured by Machi and was dying. Killing Porcupine at this time wouldn't yield much reward.

The quality of the treasure chest dropped when cooperating with plot characters to kill plot characters, and sometimes no treasure chest would drop at all, and the amount of World's Source gained would also be very small.

Given Porcupine's current injuries, killing the opponent would only yield a small amount of World's Source, and it would also leave behind a handle.

Not saving someone is one thing, killing them is another. Moreover, others didn't know that Su Xiao had a potion that could save Porcupine's life.

Watching Su Xiao walk away, Porcupine lay helplessly on the ground.

"So that's how it is, I understand."

Porcupine seemed to think of something, and the dying man actually smiled.

"Ten Dons, you will all come down to accompany me, you definitely will."

The luster in Porcupine's pupils gradually dimmed.

Su Xiao returned to the car he had arrived in. He didn't intend to track Machi and Shizuku. His state was too poor; if Troupe members reinforced the two, it would be bad.

The two were only support personnel of the Troupe, and their combat power ranked in the bottom few of the Troupe.

There are thirteen people in the Troupe, one of whom is a traitor, a double agent. If calculating combat power, it can be counted as twelve people.

Among these twelve people, there are four support personnel and eight combat personnel.

Four of the eight combat personnel had been killed by Su Xiao. That is to say, the Troupe's remaining combat power was only: Chrollo Lucilfer (Leader), Phinks, Franklin, Bonolenov.

Among these four, Chrollo Lucilfer is the hardest to deal with, followed by Phinks, then Franklin, and finally Bonolenov.

The situation became clearer. There were only eight people left in the Troupe. As for Hisoka, that traitor, Su Xiao never considered him a member of the Troupe.

Hisoka's strength is not weak, his personality is fickle, he likes to cultivate strong enemies before killing them, and often calls weak enemies "green apples."

This behavior of cultivating enemies and killing them after they become strong is, in Su Xiao's view, an extremely stupid + arrogant performance.

Su Xiao would never make enemies without reason. Once it is confirmed to be a hostile relationship, regardless of whether the opponent is beautiful as a fairy or has rich growth potential, he would slash them first.

Thinking of this, Su Xiao shook his head. His battle with the Troupe took advantage of information. He wiped out nearly half of the Troupe's combat power while the Troupe members were alone. With the Troupe leader's intelligence, this kind of thing would not happen again.

The current situation is to let the auction reopen and close safely on September 10th. Only then can the main quest be completed.

Su Xiao opened the passenger door.

"Drive."

"..."

Even breathing came. Su Xiao turned his head to look, and Black Mary was sleeping on the steering wheel. Only then did he remember that the other party had helped him heal, leading to exhaustion.

Su Xiao got out of the car, walked to the driver's seat, put Black Mary in the passenger seat, and sat in the driver's seat to start the car.

Just before the car drove out of the valley, Su Xiao looked at the bodyguards of the "Nostrade family." As expected, Kurapika had disappeared; he should have gone to pursue Machi and Shizuku.

The car drove slowly out of the valley and onto the highway leading to Yorknew City. Su Xiao lit a cigarette and opened the driver's window.

Holding the steering wheel with one hand and the hand holding the cigarette on the window, the strong wind blew the ash away, and the sparks on the cigarette butt were scorching red.

"Aching all over, but it was fun to fight."

Su Xiao had long been accustomed to this life of frequent fighting, or rather, this life was more suitable for him. If he didn't live passionately enough, then living would lose its fun, just a walking corpse. Frequently risking his life was undoubtedly very exciting. As a reward, he gained powerful strength, strength that had already begun to be extraordinary.

Half an hour later, Su Xiao drove to the vicinity of Yorknew City. Just at this moment, the phone in Black Mary's arms suddenly rang.

Finding the phone in the soft touch, Su Xiao answered the call.

"I am Bai Ye."

The person on the phone was stunned, then immediately said:

"Something happened."

It was Bicker. At this moment, his voice was very low.

"Your lair was taken?"

"Eh, not that, but... the Shadow Beasts suffered heavy casualties."

Su Xiao's brows furrowed. The opponent might not be talking about the five Shadow Beasts that died in the valley.

"How many died?"

"Three."

"Did Owl die?"

"Owl is still alive. You said before to let Owl stay with us. Now it seems this was the correct choice."

Su Xiao calculated the remaining number of Shadow Beasts. Leech was killed by him, then all five Shadow Beasts in the valley died in battle, and now three more died. That is to say, only Owl was left among the Shadow Beasts.

The Shadow Beast Owl's ability is very special, called "Magical Cloth," which can wrap enemies inside and shrink them, thereby easily capturing them. The captured enemies cannot break free from the "Magical Cloth."

"Magical Cloth" can not only wrap enemies but also objects. Now all auction items have been wrapped by the Shadow Beast Owl with his ability, turning into a small cloth bag.

If Owl is caught by the Troupe, the auction items will also fall into the Troupe's hands. With the current situation, the auction might end without a whimper.

"As long as Owl is still in our hands, there is no problem."

Su Xiao was just about to hang up the phone when Bicker asked urgently:

"How is the situation on your side?"

"The Troupe was repelled by me."

"Great..."

Before Bicker could breathe a sigh of relief, Su Xiao's next words left the opponent dazed.

"The Shadow Beasts are dead."

"Dead? How many died?"

"Five."

The phone fell into silence. At this moment, Bicker's gaze was dazed. The Shadow Beasts were Nen users loyal to them. All five Shadow Beasts in the valley died, which was a nightmare for the Ten Dons.

"The Troupe members won't let it go. Gather all the strength that can be gathered, hire assassins, hire mercenaries, it doesn't matter. Now the problem between us and the Troupe is no longer just about money."

Su Xiao hung up the phone after finishing. Things have developed to this point; it is indeed no longer a money problem.
