39: The fisherman benefits?

After activating his Purple Flame Eyes, the Two People's movements clearly slowed down considerably in Shen Xi's eyes.

The Tiger Crane Double Form no longer posed any threat to him. While dodging, Shen Xi could also launch effective counterattacks.

In just a few short minutes, the battle was over.

The Two People were directly knocked to the ground by Shen Xi, completely losing the ability to fight back.

"You, how can you be so strong?"

"We are both in the Minor Completion of Vital Energy Realm, why can you fight two at once?"

The Two People and the Gloomy Man spoke one after another, their hearts filled with shock.

They were in the same Realm, and they also Cultivated Acquired Martial Arts, so logically, there shouldn't have been much difference between them and Shen Xi.

Even if one-on-one they weren't his match, two-on-one should have been a sure thing.

But the outcome far exceeded their expectations.

They couldn't even last five minutes against Shen Xi.

Furthermore, Shen Xi didn't even break a sweat; this was simply not on the same level.

"Shut up. Your lives are in my hands now. Only I have the right to speak."

Shen Xi said, stepping on the Two People's head, looking down at him.

"Go back and tell the person who sent you that I have nothing to do with Kong Wen. Whatever they fight about, it has nothing to do with me. Don't drag me into it, otherwise..."

Shen Xi paused, then slammed his fist into the ground next to the Two People's head.

The domineering fist wind immediately caused a crack several meters long to appear on the ground.

"Whoever dares to provoke me, I will make his head look exactly like this floor."

Upon hearing this, the Two People were bewildered.

The order they received was that an outsider Martial Artist named Shen Xi had reached an agreement with Kong Wen, which might shake the position of that Adult, and Shen Xi must be eliminated.

But listening to Shen Xi, he had no connection with Kong Wen?

"I've made myself clear enough, haven't I? Get lost, and don't bother me again!"

Shen Xi kicked the Two People more than ten meters away, then left without even looking at them.

He knew that his ruthlessness was enough to make the people behind the Two People weigh whether they wanted to cause him trouble.

In the world of Martial Artists, fists are the hard truth.

Watching Shen Xi's figure disappear, the Two People struggled to their feet.

They had to report Shen Xi's words truthfully to that Adult.

"It seems Shen Xi really has nothing to do with Kong Wen?"

The Two People speculated.

"That should be the case. Otherwise, he could have killed us to weaken the Adult's power."

The Gloomy Man also nodded.

"Then we don't need to trouble Shen Xi anymore, and we might even be able to win him over?"

The Two People said thoughtfully.

"I don't think that's likely. Given Shen Xi's attitude, he doesn't want to get involved in this muddy water at all."

The Gloomy Man directly denied it.

"Never mind, report today's events to the Adult, and let the Adult decide everything."

Saying that, the Two People supported the Gloomy Man and was about to leave.

Just then, a cold voice rang out.

"It's just a pity you won't live to go back."

A terrifying aura surged overwhelmingly, pressing down on the Two People.

Immediately after, a man shrouded in a Black Robe slowly walked towards the Two People.

The Two People's expressions instantly changed.

Great Accomplishment of Yuanqi Realm!

If it were normally, with the Two People cooperating, they could protect themselves even against a Great Accomplishment of Yuanqi Realm practitioner.

But they had just fought Shen Xi and were already severely injured, unable to even walk steadily, let alone fight again.

"Are you Kong Wen's man?"

The Two People quickly reacted.

Kong Wen had long guessed that his Adult would send people to intercept and kill Shen Xi. When Shen Xi left the Drunken Immortal Pavilion, he had his subordinates secretly follow him.

Now that the other party had appeared, it was clear that he intended to kill them and frame Shen Xi.

At that time, the Adult would surely believe that Shen Xi had killed them, seeing him as a thorn in his side. Kong Wen only needed to reap the benefits.

What a vicious scheme.

"You reacted quickly, but it's too late. You were ordered to intercept and kill Shen Xi, and now you're dead in the street. Anyone would think Shen Xi did it."

"At that time, even if Shen Xi jumps into the Yellow River, he won't be able to clear his name. Even if he wants to stay out of it, he will be forced to get involved in this struggle."

"By using Shen Xi as a tool to weaken Chen Fang's power, the Cadre position will be Kong Wen's for the taking."

The Black-Robed Man's laughter grew increasingly wild, as if he had already seen the scene of the snipe and clam fighting, with the fisherman benefiting.

"Oh? So that's what it is. Kong Wen and Chen Fang are fighting for the Cadre position, so they painstakingly lured me into this game."

The Black-Robed Man's smile froze.

He hadn't expected that Shen Xi, who had already left, would appear before him again.

"You, weren't you already..."

"Already gone? If I hadn't done that, how would you have revealed yourself and told me what was going on?"

Shen Xi picked his ear, looking somewhat casual.

The Black-Robed Man's aura instantly turned gloomy, and he said coldly, "Hmph! Daring to deceive me, you're seeking your own death!"

"I originally planned to use you to weaken Chen Fang's power, but you insist on acting smart, so I can't let you live. Anyway, using you to kill two Minor Completion of Vital Energy experts is also a good result."

At this point, the Black-Robed Man licked his lips Bloodthirsty: "If I were you, I'd regret showing up. Don't forget, I'm in the Great Accomplishment of Yuanqi Realm. The Martial Artist Dao, each step is a new heaven. Even a Minor Achievement Realm difference is like the difference between immortals and mortals."

"Then you can try to see if I can strike an immortal as a mortal!"

Shen Xi stood firm and responded faintly.

"Kill!"

The Black-Robed Man roared, pulling out a saber from the storage bag at his waist.

The saber gleamed with a cold light, radiating a terrifying chill under the moonlight.

Acquired Weapon.

Great Accomplishment of Yuanqi, coupled with an Acquired Weapon. No wonder the Black-Robed Man was so arrogant.

This combination could even exchange a few blows with a Yuan Qi Transformation Realm practitioner.

"Mad Demon's Three Slashes, First Style!"

Behind the Black-Robed Man, a shadow of a demon seemed to appear.

He consecutively swung six sabers, their lights intertwining like a vast, overwhelming net, intending to entangle and dismember Shen Xi.

"Benlei Eight Styles!"

Shen Xi put on his kuanglei gauntlets and threw punches one after another.

Amidst the flashing electric light, the gauntlets and saber lights intersected, erupting in dazzling sparks.

Shen Xi blocked all of the Black-Robed Man's attacks. His nonchalant demeanor made the Black-Robed Man somewhat disillusioned.

He was in the Great Accomplishment of Yuanqi Realm!

He was using Acquired Martial Arts and an Acquired Weapon. How could Shen Xi possibly block him?

"Shocked? There's more to shock you later. Keep attacking!"
