Chapter 123 Continuous Assassinations, Strange Peach Theater (Subscribe)
No one passed by on the wide official road.

After the old monk said this, Tang Yun's originally furrowed brows had become wrinkled into a "川" shape.

"Shen Bai, it's this guy again, why do you want to kill him so much?"

"Even cooperating with me at all costs?"

The old monk sneered, "There are those who use adversity to attack those above them, but there are few who can use the Five Internal Organs realm to attack those at the Open Meridians realm. If we don't kill such a person, once he grows up, he will become a huge disaster."

Tang Yun was slightly startled. "You mean, he can really overcome adversity?"

Just now, he guessed about Shen Bai and thought that Shen Bai was sent out by Liu Wufeng to stabilize the morale of the army.

But now it seems that it is not true.

Thinking of this, Tang Yun couldn't help but take a breath.

There may be many people who have the same idea as him.

But if this is true, then Shen Bai will become the most glorious figure in the entire Great Zhou Kingdom.

"I understand. You're afraid that Shen Bai will grow stronger and come to you to settle scores later." Tang Yun immediately guessed the old monk's thoughts. "But what are you planning to do by using my team to enter Maple Forest State? If you start a fight inside Maple Forest State, I'm afraid you don't want to live anymore."

The Wild Taoist Sect and the Wild Buddhist Sect are indeed very powerful, and their influence is spread throughout the Great Zhou Kingdom.

But the problem is, they can't come too often.

After all, there is more than one Maple Forest State in this world.

If a large number of experts were mobilized specifically to kill Shen Bai, he would be digging his own grave.

The old monk clasped his hands together and said, "Of course we won't do it openly. We just need you to help us get into the city and then help us put on a good show."

"Singing is what you are best at. Isn't this just a coincidence?"

Sing opera?

Tang Yun looked at the corpses on the ground, especially the two women in light gauze: "What a pity, those who can sing opera were all killed by you."

Tang Yun was indifferent to the deaths of these people.

In his mind, they were all unimportant characters.

As for those two women in gauze, they were just playthings.

But the old monk's words made Tang Yun feel that this idea was simply impossible to achieve.

The old monk said slowly, "They have already learned the simple tricks of acting. It's easy to deceive the Heavenly Supervisor. Don't worry, Marquis Feng Jiang is standing behind you. We won't abandon you after you've done your work, and we won't burn you."

"This matter will allow Marquis Feng Jiang to gain the favor of the Ye Dao Sect and Ye Fo Sect, which will be a great boost to his grand plan."

Having said that, I have actually said everything that needs to be said.

The old monk kept his hands clasped together, seeming very sure that Tang Yun would agree.

Tang Yun pondered for a moment: "What will happen if I don't agree?"

The old monk said directly: "Death."

Tang Yun sighed: "In that case, I promise you, you can handle the follow-up on your own."

The old monk said nothing more, turned around and left.

A young woman walked out from among the Taoist priests who had already changed their clothes.

The woman bowed and said, "My name is Qingyin, and I am the leader of this team. From now on, I will tell Master Tang what to do next. Shen Bai must die."

Tang Yun nodded and said no more.

Afterwards, the people from the Yedao Sect buried all the bodies and drove away from the official road in their carriages.

……

Fenglinzhou, Shen Bai's residence.

At this moment, Shen Bai looked at the smoke in front of him, with a hint of excitement in his eyes.

The smoke curled up and floated in front of Shen Bai's eyes, and finally formed new words that appeared in front of Shen Bai.

【神行百里lv.4（速度+8，耐力+8，躲闪+8，爆速+8）:0/10000】

When this line of text appeared, it immediately turned into smoke and was completely absorbed by Shen Bai.

Shen Bai closed his eyes and patiently absorbed the information about the God of Traveling Hundred Miles.

After Shen Bai absorbed all the information, he opened his eyes.

"The attribute of explosive speed is quite interesting." Shen Bai touched his chin and thought to himself.

When the Shenxing Baili reaches level four, in addition to doubling other attributes, it also gains the attribute of explosive speed.

The so-called explosive speed is an extremely useful attribute for Shen Bai.

Of course, this attribute can only be used for pursuit or escape.

"Increase the consumption of Qi by eight times and increase the speed to the extreme."

Shen Bai pondered: "Although the consumption has become extremely terrifying, the speed has also increased eightfold. Doesn't this mean..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Bai circulated the Qi in his body.

The next moment, his figure did not move, but there was a teacup in his hand.

This is the horror of explosive speed.

Once Shen Bai has fully mastered it, there will be no possibility of going too far.

Just now, he seemed not to move, but he had already gone to another room and took the cup in his hand.

"It's not just about pursuit and escape, maybe it can be combined with other magical powers."

Shen Bai thought to himself, then walked out of the room.

Outside the house, it was pitch black.

Tonight, no one passed by in this remote street.

Shen Bai thought about it, and then used the Divine Travel of Hundred Miles.

The shadow at the original place gradually dissipated, and Shen Bai had already risen high. At the same time, he pulled out the Hanyue in his hand and performed the Demon-Breaking Blood Sword Dance at an explosive speed of hundreds of miles.

The speed of this sword reached its peak.

The blood-red sword energy was under Shen Bai's control and did not burst out from the cold moon.

After all, this place is located in Maple Forest State.

Then, Shen Bai fell from the sky, looking at the cold moon in his hand, and fell into deep thought.

"As expected, this can be used as another ultimate move."

"Using explosive charge to drive other magical powers not only creates surprise, but can even increase their power."

"Good, we can start the next magical power."

Shen Bai thought to himself that this was really worth it.

In front of Shen Bai's eyes, a line of smoke appeared and eventually condensed into words.

【避毒回春术lv.3（治疗+4，恢复+4，避毒+4）：1000/5000】

Since the proficiency of the poison avoidance and rejuvenation technique has been converted once, there are an extra thousand experience points.

In addition to this magical power, there are also the Hunyuan Breaking Formation Technique and the Soul Casting Technique.

Shen Bai wanted to practice the poison avoidance and rejuvenation technique to the fourth level first.

After all, judging from the current situation, this magical power is essential for guarding against evil spirits.

Thinking of this, Shen Bai returned to the house and prepared to continue practicing the liver-avoiding poison and rejuvenation technique.

But at this moment, Shen Bai suddenly stopped and turned his gaze to the corner of the street.

"who?"

He just keenly felt that there seemed to be some unusual movement at the corner of the street.

Just as he had this thought, Shen Bai heard a burst of brisk footsteps.

Immediately afterwards, Shen Bai saw a strange and twisted figure approaching from afar.

The figure was covered by a hazy mist, and the face could not be seen at all.

Immediately afterwards, before Shen Bai could continue speaking, the figure in the fog suddenly launched an attack.

A flash of red light appeared from the fog and then shot towards Shen Bai.

In just a blink of an eye, red light penetrated from between Shen Bai's eyebrows.

But the next moment, Shen Bai's figure remaining in the original place was gradually fading.

Travel a hundred miles.

Shen Bai used the Divine Travel of Hundred Miles, which had just reached level four, without any scruples.

The explosive speed attribute allowed Shen Bai to arrive in the blink of an eye.

Suddenly, a scream was heard in the fog.

Immediately afterwards, Shen Bai was holding a corpse in his hand. The corpse's right hand was holding a slingshot, and red beads were faintly visible on the rubber band of the slingshot.

"What a bunch of trash."

Shen Bai threw the body to the side of the road like a dead dog.

Just now, Shen Bai used his supernatural power of traveling a hundred miles, and in just a moment, he entered the thick fog.

When Shen Bai entered the thick fog, he discovered the killer hiding in the fog.

Later, when Shen Bai was planning to capture him alive, the killer actually chose to commit suicide.

The method of suicide was similar to that of Chen Xiaotian whom Shen Bai met at the beginning.

Shen Bai knew without thinking that this method was the method used by the Dark Hall.

"It is said that once the assassins of the Dark Hall accept a mission, they will fight to the death."

"It seems that we need to get rid of this evil-smelling thing first."

"It's really annoying to be disturbed by these stinky rats all day long."

Shen Bai thought for a moment and then returned to the room.

This was just a small episode, and Shen Bai didn't take it to heart. He then began to work hard to improve his proficiency in the poison avoidance and rejuvenation technique.

……

The next day, when the first rays of sunlight shone in, Shen Bai stretched and walked out of the room.

A line of text appeared before my eyes.

[Poison Avoidance and Rejuvenation +500]

Since it is a third-level magical power, the proficiency in the poison avoidance and rejuvenation technique can be improved relatively quickly.

In just one night, Shen Bai had reached the 1500-point mark.

It won’t be long before Shen Bai can master this magical power to level four.

"It's time to roll in."

Shen Bai stretched and then rushed towards the Tianjiansi.

As for the corpse from last night, once Shen Bai arrives at the Tiantian Division, he will have someone arrange for the constables from the yamen to deal with it.

Anyway, there are not many people where he lives, so there is no need to worry about these details.

After everything was ready, Shen Bai found Mu Lao.

At this time, Mu Lao was drinking tea. After seeing Shen Bai, he laughed and turned around.

Mu Lao still holds a grudge against what happened some time ago.

Shen Bai's eyes rolled and he walked closer: "Mr. Mu?"

Mu Lao didn't even raise his eyelids: "Speak."

Shen Bai coughed and said, "Do you think my Demon-Breaking Blood Sword Dance, if combined with top-notch speed, would have any miraculous effect?"

Mu Lao was still drinking, thinking that he would ignore this brat for the time being.

But after hearing this, I couldn't control my desire to play with the sword.

"What did you say? Try it."

After Mu Lao finished speaking, he realized something was wrong and frowned: "I'll help you take a look."

Shen Bai chuckled, then displayed his explosive speed of traveling a hundred miles, and at the same time used the Demon-Breaking Blood Sword Dance.

His original intention was to pique Mu Lao's interest first.

Unexpectedly, after Shen Bai used his move, Mu Lao fell into silence.

Shen Bai said: "Mr. Mu?"

Mu Lao came back to his senses and said helplessly: "How did you train, kid? How did you become stronger? According to your training speed, I'm afraid it won't be long before you can surpass me."

Shen Bai smiled and said, "That's not the case."

The corner of Mu Lao's mouth twitched slightly, but he still said seriously: "Your body movement skills are not only applicable to swordsmanship."

"Your set of Buddhist boxing techniques can also be used. Similarly, any offensive techniques can be used."

"Very strong, but currently, it seems that it has not yet reached its full potential. At least I can see a clue."

Shen Bai nodded and said, "I think so too."

Mu Lao was such a great man that he could see through Shen Bai's thoughts at a glance: "Tell me, what else is there? I don't believe you came here just to learn swordsmanship from me. You are the type who won't show off until you see the rabbit."

Shen Bai poured himself a cup of tea: "Last night, I met the killer from the Dark Hall."

Mu Lao narrowed his eyes and said, "I've encountered it before, and now I've encountered it again. Those bugs in the Dark Hall are even more disgusting than the Evil Gate."

Shen Bai asked, "Does Mr. Mu have any information about the Dark Hall?"

He is a man who must uproot the weeds.

If it is not eradicated, you will not be able to sleep comfortably.

Previously it was because of the evil gate incident, and later it was the state celebration, so Shen Bai didn’t care.

Mu Lao frowned and said, "It's strange. Although the Dark Hall is determined to fight to the death, they also have brains. After knowing your identity, they will definitely not continue to hunt you down."

In the underworld, many things are just a cover.

For example, the Antang’s never-ending fight is just to promote its own brand, but it is impossible to really do that.

Especially after knowing Shen Bai's identity, it is even more impossible to continue chasing him.

Shen Bai touched his chin: "If that's the case, then there is only one possibility, someone is still offering a reward for me."

Mu Lao nodded and said, "That's right, and the benefits are huge, so huge that they can't refuse, or rather, they dare not refuse."

Shen Bai asked, "Is there any news?"

Mu Lao shook his head and said, "This organization does assassin work, it's very secretive, and all we find are minor details, but if they take action, there will be new clues."

Having said that, Shen Bai actually understood it clearly.

For some things, the more times you do them, the more traces of their exposure will become.

Later on, Shen Bai might be able to get a feel for what's behind the scenes.

Thinking of this, Shen Bai stopped thinking about it.

"Are you here at Taoxiyuan?" Shen Bai asked.

Mu Lao nodded and said, "They're already here, but the Peach Opera House seems to be very honest this time. Miss Long Yan prepared a set of methods to deal with them, but they didn't use them. As soon as they arrived, they stayed alone in the inn. I guess the opera will start today."

Shen Bai teased Amber and said, "The calmer the sea, the more powerful the waves."

Mu Lao smiled and said, "Don't worry, the Tianjian Division will be keeping a close eye on us. According to the rules, they will visit some forces later and see the situation. If there is anything, they will issue a task."

At this point, Shen Bai and Mu Lao had almost finished their conversation.

He chatted with Mu Lao for a while and then left the resource room.

First he went to Ding Twenty-Three Division, and then Shen Bai went to the martial arts field and began to work hard to improve his proficiency in the art of avoiding poison and rejuvenation.

……

A whole day passed like this.

[Poison Avoidance and Rejuvenation +400]

When Shen Bai saw his proficiency increasing, he left the Tianjian Division with satisfaction.

Now, the poison avoidance and rejuvenation technique has reached 1900 points. The closer it gets to level four, the more Shen Bai can't wait.

Fortunately, the third-level magical power can be acquired much faster. Shen Bai's sense of achievement is increasing every moment, and he does not find it boring.

"Have dinner, then go home and continue working on your proficiency."

Shen Bai left the Heaven Monitoring Division and thought to himself, "If the people from the Dark Hall come again, we'll see then."

Outside, the sun was already setting in the west, and fiery clouds covered the sky.

After leaving Jiantiansi, Shen Bai went to the stall outside and ordered two dishes and a soup.

"Oh, Lord Shen is here, come and sit down."

The shop owner smiled and said, "It's still the same, Mr. Shen."

Shen Bai nodded: "Same as usual, eat and leave."

Because he needed to improve his proficiency, Shen Bai didn't say much to the shop owner.

Qin Shuang seemed to be on a mission today and did not have dinner with Shen Bai.

Soon, all the dishes were served and Shen Bai began to eat with relish.

After finishing the meal, Shen Bai paid the bill and headed home.

The journey back naturally didn't take much time.

But when he was three blocks away from his home, Shen Bai stopped.

In his arms, Amber was still meowing. Shen Bai looked at the crowd in front of him and raised his eyebrows.

A stage was set up in an open space not far away, and on the stage, several men and women with painted faces were performing.

Judging from his stature and gait, he is not an ordinary person.

Shen Bai touched his chin and thought to himself, "This must be someone from Taoxiyuan."

There were many people watching, and from time to time people were clapping and applauding, creating a lively atmosphere.

After all, he is a cultivator, and every movement is done just right, neither too much nor too little.

Shen Bai looked for a while and didn't see anything unusual. He even felt that these people didn't even look at him. After thinking for a moment, he decided to go back and continue to improve his proficiency.

At this moment, Shen Bai's gaze paused slightly.

In the crowd, Long Yan placed her hands on her lower abdomen and folded them, looking at the scene on the stage.

But at this time, Long Yan's brows were tightly furrowed, as if he was thinking about something.

Shen Bai pondered for a moment and walked forward: "Master Long?"

A master like Long Yan could already sense Shen Bai's approach.

By the time Shen Bai spoke, Long Yan had already turned around.

Long Yan turned around and said, "I didn't expect to meet you here."

Shen Bai pointed at the stage and asked, "Is House Master Long still worried about the Peach Opera House?"

Long Yan shook her head, then nodded, her usual gentle demeanor gone: "Yes, and no."

Shen Bai became confused because he didn't understand this sentence at all.

Long Yan thought for a moment and said, "Let's talk for a moment."

Shen Bai felt that Long Yan probably had something important to say, so he nodded and agreed.

Soon, the two left the open space and headed to a quieter alley.

Shen Bai asked, "Master Long, do you feel something is wrong?"

Long Yan nodded and said without hesitation, "I've noticed that Tao Opera House seems to be getting worse every year."

"Oh?" Shen Bai touched his chin: "What do you mean?"

Long Yan said: "Although these people have some skills in opera, their foundation is not very solid."

Shen Bai raised his eyebrows and said, "I see. If that's the case... huh?"

Before he could finish his words, Shen Bai saw an arrow shooting towards him from the depths of the alley ahead.

"Again, it's not over yet, is it?"
