If you were asked to identify an item, would you choose to extract magical powers?

Chapter 160 Assassination, Promotion

In the dark room, only the light of candlelight flickered.

The flickering light, combined with the shadows, created mottled light that made Shen Bai's face flicker.

Amber curled up in the corner of the table, playing with her tail, as if she had put all her unhappiness behind her.

The smoke emerged along with Shen Bai's thoughts, then turned into words, gradually appearing in front of Shen Bai.

The latest attributes and information about magical powers were transformed into a large amount of text and listed one by one in the air.

Looking at the dense text in front of him, Shen Bai touched his chin and thought to himself.

"The biggest gains from this trip were the Demon-Breaking Blood Sword Dance and the Vajra Dharma Fist."

After a large amount of proficiency accumulation, they have reached 12000 proficiency points.

The flawless tenth body is second only to it, with only 6000 proficiency points.

As for the Heart-Confusing Spell, he only gained 3000 points of proficiency.

I gained a lot from this trip. The proficiency of the two magical powers, Demon-Breaking Blood Sword Dance and Vajra Dharma Fist, alone amounted to nearly 24000 points.

The higher the magical power, the more difficult it is to grind.

It would take Shen Bai a huge amount of time to acquire these 24000 points of proficiency.

And now, just because of a fragment of the dead world, Shen Bai has gained so much, it is simply a huge harvest.

"So now, should I change the direction of my liver?"

Shen Bai rubbed his chin with his index finger and thought to himself.

After just a little thought, Shen Bai decided to practice the Demon-Breaking Blood Sword Dance first.

Before, Shen Bai planned to practice the Water Control Technique until it reached the second qualitative change, but now he only has seven strands of evil spirit left, and the proficiency he has gained in the Demon-Breaking Blood Sword Dance and the Vajra Dharma Fist is too great, and he will soon reach the sixth level.

Therefore, Shen Bai planned to prioritize the Demon-Breaking Blood Sword Dance, and then turn to the Vajra Dharma Fist after the Demon-Breaking Blood Sword Dance reached level six.

With this idea in mind, Shen Bai clapped his hands and made up his mind.

Then, seeing that it was not yet nightfall, he immediately began to practice the Demon-Breaking Blood Sword Dance.

This night passed very peacefully.

Wang Tianxing’s death seemed to have brought an end to everything, plunging everything into silence, without any trace of abnormality.

Many members of the Tianjian Division, including those taking the internal examination, breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, Feng Zheng was working overtime to come up with a reward strategy.

Shen Bai, on his side, forgot everything and fell into the madness of the liver emperor.

……

The next day, when the next morning came, although I couldn't see the time passing in this deep mountain, there was always a way to measure time.

Shen Bai gained a lot that night. Although he has not yet upgraded the Demon-Breaking Blood Sword Dance to level six, he is not far away.

The reward would take a few days, so Shen Bai didn't go out. He planned to continue working hard.

The inexplicable aura that appeared last night has never appeared again.

Although Shen Bai felt it was strange, he did not explore it in detail. After all, at the moment, he put all his thoughts on improving his proficiency.

Several days passed, and during these days, Shen Baigan's proficiency progress remained the same.

During this period, I also met with members of the internal examination many times.

He has never been out, but that doesn't stop members of the internal examination from coming to visit him.

After the battle with Wang Tianxing, Shen Bai became a mysterious existence in the hearts of the internal examination members.

Everyone has a deep respect for Shen Bai.

Those who work in the Tiansi are considered to have been involved in half of the officialdom, so of course they understand the ways of the world.

So during this period of time, Shen Bai received many visits from internal examination members.

We will all be young in the future, and maybe we will be able to use each other's knowledge at some point.

Although we were all enemies during the internal examination, that was only temporary. After the internal examination, we were all colleagues and no one would hold a grudge.

In response to this, Shen Bai responded one by one.

Without affecting his proficiency, Shen Bai became quite familiar with this group of internal examination members.

"Dong dong dong."

There was another knock on the door.

The third prince's voice sounded outside.

"Brother Shen, please open the door quickly. Let's have another drink today."

Shen Bai put down Hanyue in his hand and put it back into the scabbard at his waist. Then he came to the door and opened it. He saw the third prince standing outside the door waiting with two jars of wine in his hands.

The person who visited him the most in recent times was the Third Prince.

This prince of the royal family was very smart. Every time he came, he would talk to Shen Bai about various interesting things in the martial arts world, and he would bring two pots of fine wine every time.

Shen Bai was happy about this.

If you stay in the Great Zhou Kingdom and have good relationships with the princes, you can also make your life more successful.

What's more, the way the Third Prince behaves makes people feel very comfortable, as if he is not here for any utilitarian purpose.

"Tomorrow will be the day to announce the rewards."

The third prince placed the drinks on the table and said.

Shen Bai closed the door with his backhand, sat down beside him, and said, "I wonder what the reward will be."

He has always been very curious about the rewards for the internal examination.

It is said that the rewards for each internal examination are different, but I don’t know what they are this time.

The Third Prince filled a bowl of wine for Shen Bai, clinked glasses with him, drank the wine in the bowl in one gulp, wiped his mouth, and said, "It's different every time. Sometimes the rewards are various weapons, sometimes they are various elixirs, and this time it is said that the rewards are strange things."

Weird creature?

When these two words appeared, a hint of surprise immediately appeared on Shen Bai's face, but he then hid it.

"Why are there so many differences this time?" Shen Bai asked.

The Third Prince shook his head. "I don't know. This was all my father's idea. Perhaps he wanted to vigorously cultivate the younger generation."

Providing weapons and elixirs are easy, after all, although they are precious, they are not unique.

But it is extremely rare to release something like a monster.

If any strange thing were to fall into the world, many people would fight for it.

The Great Zhou Kingdom used this as a reward for internal examination members. There must be something wrong when something is abnormal.

Shen Bai thought about it, but couldn't figure out the reason.

Perhaps it is really as the third prince said, that it is to vigorously cultivate the younger generation, and these have nothing to do with him.

However, the reward from that strange creature was of great use to Shen Bai.

The Third Prince continued drinking with Shen Bai and said, "It is said that only half of the participants will receive the strange items based on their ranking. This time, my father is quite generous. Of course, the other half will also receive weapons, elixirs and other resources."

"It is said that the winner can choose five strange items."

"Five strange things?"

Shen Bai touched his chin, feeling ecstatic inside, but appearing calm on the surface.

He now has seven strands of evil spirits, which are not enough for qualitative change. After all, a second qualitative change requires ten strands of evil spirits.

For Shen Bai, being able to obtain five strange objects is a huge gain.

"By the way, Brother Shen, you must be mentally prepared when you return this time."

The third prince changed the subject.

Shen Bai asked: "What kind of mental preparation?"

The Third Prince smiled mysteriously, "All the details of the internal examination need to be passed on to my father, the Emperor, and then forwarded to the headquarters of the Heavenly Supervisory Department. My father himself is a man who values ​​talent, and he might even let you meet the Emperor, and then promote you to a higher rank based on your performance."

Shen Bai raised his eyebrows and said, "It is a great honor for me to be valued by His Majesty."

The Third Prince poured another bowl of wine for Shen Bai. Looking at Shen Bai's expression, he smiled and said, "Brother Shen, you seem a little stiff. I'm also curious. Others like to be promoted and rise to the pinnacle of power, but Brother Shen seems to be very indifferent to all this."

Shen Bai shook his head and said, "Everyone's pursuits are different. Just like His Royal Highness the Third Prince, his pursuits are different from those of ordinary people."

"That's right. Look at my memory. Brother Shen is a wonderful person, not an ordinary person." The third prince and Shen Bai drank a bowl and did not continue talking about this topic.

Some things, when you talk about them, will lead to some unexpected things.

The third prince knew that Shen Bai didn't like talking about these things, so he changed the subject to some interesting stories in the martial arts world.

He has always been recruiting talents, so he has come into contact with many people in the world.

Normally, thanks to the Third Prince's eloquence, I know quite a lot.

The two chatted for half an hour.

Only after he had drunk two jars of wine did the third prince stagger away.

Looking at the back of the third prince as he left, Shen Bai shook his head and thought to himself.

"He is truly a formidable figure. If all three princes are like him, then the royal battle will be quite interesting."

Thinking of this, Shen Bai closed the door again, then came into the house and continued to pull out the Hanyue from his waist.

Shen Bai worked hard for a whole day.

……

It wasn't until the next day that he took Amber out of the room.

The Demon-Breaking Blood Sword Dance was only a little away from reaching level six, so Shen Bai was not in a hurry and planned to come out and collect the reward first.

According to the Third Prince, these are five strange objects in total. For Shen Bai, this is a huge gain and he has no reason not to want it.

With such an excited mood, Shen Bai came to the location of the nine-story building.

At this moment, the four builders were gathered together, whispering.

Shen Bai happened to pass by.

After noticing this, the four builders immediately looked at Shen Bai with awe.

"Is it going to be demolished?" Shen Bai asked.

One of the builders nodded and said, "Yes, Lord Shen, these are all top-quality materials. They will be useful for next year's internal examination. However, before we tear it down, we need to ask someone in the industry to move all the plants and trees inside. Otherwise, once we tear it down, the plants and trees inside will be destroyed."

Reuse has always been what builders are best at.

It is precisely because of this that the Great Zhou Kingdom arranged for them to carry out the construction, so that it would save the most trouble and effort.

Shen Bai nodded, said nothing more, and continued walking forward.

Ouyang Jian and Xu Qian did not come to disturb Shen Bai these days. Instead, they hung out together and seemed to get along quite well.

After noticing Shen Bai's arrival, Ouyang Jian and Xu Qian came up and bowed.

"Brother Shen, we may have to part ways after today."

Shen Bai asked curiously, "Brother Xu is going back to his city. Isn't Brother Ouyang going back with me?"

It's convenient when you come, and it's naturally convenient when you leave.

Unexpectedly, Ouyang Jian shook his head and said, "I won't go back for now. I have to go to my master."

The master naturally refers to Mu Lao’s teacher, the powerful being who is a landlord in a Beijing-level city.

Shen Bai nodded and said, "Alright, I'll go back alone then."

He didn't ask why; it had nothing to do with him.

Everyone has their own secrets, and asking too many questions is not a good thing.

Just as the few people were talking, Shen Bai noticed footsteps. He turned around and saw Lu Bei and the other two walking up with embarrassed expressions.

While still waiting for Shen Bai to speak, Lu Bei and the other two looked at each other and said with a bow.

"Sir Shen, we three were very presumptuous before. We hope you can forgive us. After all, this is an internal examination, so we have to make a poor decision."

Shen Bai shook his head and said, "Lord Feng said before that the internal examination does not judge by means, but by results. We are only temporary enemies, so there is no need to be so cautious."

Lu Bei nodded and said, "Sir Shen, you are so generous. The three of us seemed a little stingy. Now that Sir Shen doesn't blame us, we are relieved."

Recently, Lu Bei and the other two also figured it out.

It is normal that they are not opponents. Among the young people nowadays, how many opponents can be found? It is impossible to defeat Shen Bai.

Especially Shen Bai's performance in this internal examination, not to mention the younger generation, even the middle-aged generation would probably be frightened.

The three of them came up to apologize because what they did in the internal examination was indeed not right.

Don’t worry about the words about not using any means necessary. At least what you did can easily make people angry.

In other words, Lord Shen Bai was magnanimous, so he didn't care about this matter.

Of course, there is a reason.

Shen Bai feels that it is easy for a person to admit his mistakes, but it is very difficult to correct them after knowing them.

It is a rare and precious thing that these three people were able to humble themselves and come over to explain the situation.

At least he is a man who dares to take responsibility, so there is nothing he cannot forgive.

Being a man, sometimes it's just that simple.

After Lu Bei heard what Shen Bai said, he didn't disturb the others and left.

After they left, Feng Zheng walked in from outside with a file in his hand.

Behind Feng Zheng, an extremely huge box was being carried inside by several members of the Tianjiansi.

When Feng Zheng appeared, everyone's eyes were cast on Feng Zheng.

Especially the huge box, which made everyone's eyes show a hint of excitement.

Even if they don't make it into the top half of the rankings, they will still get resources such as weapons and elixirs, which are extremely good for them.

Feng Zheng's face showed a hint of seriousness. He then opened the scroll in his hand and began to read: "This internal examination has concluded successfully. Everyone has performed very well. Now it is time to reward them according to their merits."

"I'll call out a name, and one person will come up to receive your reward."

Simple steps, Feng Zheng also explained it very simply.

When he finished speaking, he began to read out the names.

There are many internal examination members here, but the box is not particularly big.

But every time a new member of the internal examination came up, there would be an endless supply of things taken out from inside.

After Shen Bai took a look, he immediately saw the beauty of it.

This is a space-type item.

"It seems that the Yunxizhou Tianshi is also very wealthy." Shen Bai thought to himself.

As the largest of all state cities, it's no surprise that this exists.

As Feng Zheng continued to read out names, more and more members of the Tianjian Division went up to collect their belongings.

After half of them received it, the other half came forward, and this time they received the strange things.

Except for the first place winner, everyone else can only receive one strange item.

It seems that the rewards are the same and the ranking does not seem to be important, but it is not the case.

Subsequent cultivation is the most critical, so ranking is also extremely important.

Everyone received a strange item that they liked, and regardless of whether they could communicate and use it, this item could even be kept as a family heirloom.

Not long after, Shen Bai was the only one left who had not gone to collect it.

Then, Shen Bai stepped forward under everyone's expectant gaze.

Feng Zheng cleared his throat and said loudly, "Shen Bai, Chief of the Fenglin Prefecture Heavenly Supervisor, won first place in this conference, saved Yunxi Prefecture from catastrophic disaster, and obtained five strange artifacts. Do you have any opinions?"

Opinions, who has any opinions?
Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads.

Forget about your opinions, even if you give him all the weird things, they will have no objection.

After all, it is other people's contribution, and it is real, there is nothing to say.

Seeing that no one raised any objections, Feng Zheng nodded and said, "Master Shen, please count carefully."

In the wooden box, five strange objects were picked up by the members of the Tianjiansi and handed to Shen Bai.

Shen Bai just drew a line in the air, and a crack appeared. The five strange objects were then collected into the space of the Life and Death Collection Technique.

This space technique had been used to treat the third prince, and everyone had seen it.

But now when they saw Shen Bai perform it, everyone was still quite surprised.

After all, space-type skills are really hard to find.

Now Shen Bai can control it with ease. Besides being surprised, people are more envious.

Shen Bai didn't go to see what these five strange things were. He had plenty of time to look at these things on the way back, so there was no rush now.

Then, Feng Zheng began to talk about the final matters.

"Everyone, this trip has concluded successfully. After returning, wait for news. The allocation and plans of various resources will be returned to the respective Tianjian Divisions one by one. By then, you will naturally know."

"If there is nothing else, you can set off today and go to where you came from."

This trip took quite a while, and the journey was long, so everyone was eager to go home.

With these words, many members of the internal examination came forward one by one to pay their respects, then left and began to go back to pack up their things.

Feng Zheng looked at Shen Bai and said, "Sir Shen, if you are free in the future, you can come to Yunxi Prefecture at any time. The Yunxi Prefecture Tianshi Division will definitely hold a banquet to entertain you."

Shen Bai smiled and said, "When I have time in the future, I will definitely come to Yunxi Prefecture and have a drink with Master Feng."

"I still have some follow-up matters to deal with, so I won't see Lord Shen off this time." Feng Zheng said.

Shen Bai nodded and said, "I can go back by myself."

The two of them talked for a few more words, and Shen Bai said goodbye to the third prince again, then walked out alone.

He didn't have much luggage, and all his things were stored in the space of the Life and Death Storage Technique.

After walking out of Qingling Mountain and arriving at the outside world through a special way, Shen Bai felt the sunshine outside.

Although the sunlight was dazzling, it was warm enough. After staying in Qingling Mountain for so long, Shen Bai felt that the scenery outside was quite pleasant.

"Let's go home." Shen Bai hugged Amber in his arms and said with a smile.

Amber meowed and nudged herself in Shen Bai's arms.

Family?
In Amber's little head, only Shen Bai's arms are her real home.

Shen Bai did not stop any longer. He let out a long roar, turned into a shadow, and disappeared in the mountains of Qingling Mountain.

……

Above officialdom.

At this moment, the sun was shining brightly and a carriage was speeding past.

The driver was old, but his driving skills were very steady. Even though the carriage was running so fast, it was as stable as a mountain.

This is a unique business, and driving a carriage is their unique skill.

In times of war, they would also be responsible for transporting supplies.

On weekdays, he would drive a carriage for people from the underworld and collect a certain amount of money.

At this moment, the driver was driving the cart while talking incessantly.

"Master Shen, you don't know that the things you did in Yunxi Province have now spread like wildfire. The whole world knows about it and has even given you the title of Eight Absolute Young Master."

"You already have six unique skills, but now you have two more. I'm so envious!"

As he spoke, the driver waved his whip, looking extremely envious.

Inside the carriage, Shen Bai was checking the five strange creatures he had obtained. After hearing this, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

To be honest, he really didn't expect that something like a title could be changed.

Originally he was known as the Young Master of Six Wonders, and people in the martial arts world only knew of his six unique skills, but now two more have been added, giving him the title of the Young Master of Eight Wonders.

This stuff sounds a bit outrageous.

What's even more outrageous is that Shen Bai wants to know, if outsiders know a few more of his unique skills in the future, will it become nine or ten unique skills.

By then, you will have to add more to it.

"You often travel around the official roads and various cities. Do you know who spread the news?" Shen Bai asked casually.

If he really caught who was the first to spread the title, Shen Bai would let him know why the flowers were so red.

The driver shook his head and said, "I really don't know. Anyway, this title has become more and more popular now. Many people want to make friends with Lord Shen. I didn't expect that Lord Shen would ride in my carriage. It is really an honor for me."

These words were all spoken sincerely, and the driver even couldn't help waving his whip to express his excitement.

Shen Bai smiled and said nothing more, but focused on the strange object in his hand.

In front of Shen Bai's eyes, lines of smoke appeared, then condensed into words, floating in the air.

Damaged Medical Kit

[Identification progress: 0%]

[A trace of evil spirit can be quickly detected]

This is the first weird thing.

Shen Bai silently made an appraisal in his heart.

Before his eyes, one of the seven evil spirits disappeared.

The smoke shattered and turned into a line of text.

[Detecting the same type of magical power, whether to convert it into proficiency in poison avoidance and rejuvenation]

"Transformation."

As Shen Bai secretly read out the word "transformation", the smoke in front of him turned into new words.

[Poison Avoidance and Rejuvenation +2000]

Shen Bai did not stop and turned his attention to another strange creature.

【Shadow Cloak】

[Identification progress: 0%]

[A trace of evil spirit can be quickly identified]

"Identification." Shen Bai continued to mutter.

[Detects the same type of magical power, whether to convert it into Shadow Thousand Kills proficiency]

"Transform." Shen Bai didn't hesitate at all.

[Shadow Thousand Kills +1000]

Shen Bai looked at the third strange object again.

Bloodstained Boots

[Identification progress: 0%]

[A trace of evil spirit can be quickly identified]

"Continue the appraisal."

Shen Bai once again consumed a trace of evil energy.

[Detecting the same type of magical power, whether to convert it into the proficiency of Thousand Miles Travel]

"Transformation." Shen Bai muttered to himself again.

[God of Travel +1000]

"The fourth strange thing."

Shen Bai did not hesitate and turned his gaze to the fourth strange object.

Armor of the Dead

[Identification progress: 0%]

[A trace of evil spirit can be quickly identified]

"Appraisal."

[Detecting the same type of magical power, whether it is converted into flawless ten-fold body proficiency]

"Transformation."

[Flawless Tenfold Body +4000]

"Come on, the fifth one."

In front of Shen Bai's eyes, the smoke condensed into words again and appeared in the air.

【Taoist blessing card】

[Identification progress: 0%]

[A trace of evil spirit can be quickly identified]

"Appraisal."

[Detecting the same type of magical power, whether to convert it into the proficiency of the chaotic mantra]

"Transformation."

[Heart-disturbing curse +4000]

The next moment, Shen Bai had identified all five strange objects.

He now only has two wisps of evil spirit left.

What the disappearance of the evil spirit brings is a large amount of proficiency and experience.

This time, the proficiency of Thousand Miles Travel and Thousand Shadow Kills each increased by 1000 points.

The flawless tenth level body increased by 4000 points, reaching a proficiency of 10000 points.

The Heart-Confusing Spell also increased by 4000 points, reaching 7000 points.

As for the poison avoidance and rejuvenation technique, it has been increased by 2000 points.

For Shen Bai, this was a great harvest, which could save him a huge amount of time later.

"That's great."

Shen Bai touched his chin, then temporarily put all the strange creatures into the space of the Life and Death Storage Technique and lifted the curtain of the carriage.

Outside the window is a dense forest.

It is normal to pass through some jungles on the official road.

It was just that the Great Zhou Kingdom spent a lot of manpower and material resources to open up a road that was wide enough for carriages to travel.

Amber lay lazily in Shen Bai's arms, licking the fur on her paws from time to time.

"What was the atmosphere that night?" Shen Bai thought to himself as he looked at the scenery outside the window.

He still hasn't figured out what the aura that suddenly appeared that night was.

"It seems that the search for the strange creature that possesses the power of divination can now be put on the agenda. After returning to Maple Forest State, I will ask the Heavenly Supervisor to help look for it. Or maybe Elder Mu has some information."

"After finding it, I can also find out clearly those things that are secretly dealing with me." Shen Bai knocked on the window sill of the carriage with his hand, thinking to himself.

The aura that night was still a mystery. Shen Bai still couldn't figure out who it was, so he urgently needed a method of divination.

In the future, when he encounters an opponent who is secretly dealing with him, even if he cannot figure it out directly, he will at least get some clues.

As he was thinking this, the carriage gradually slowed down.

Shen Bai frowned, then lifted the curtain of the carriage and asked, "What's going on?"

The official road is wide, the carriage is moving at a fairly fast speed, and the weather is good, so this trip should be smooth sailing.

As for those so-called enemies, Shen Bai didn't encounter any of them on the way back.

The driver turned around and said, "Master Shen, look ahead. This is the first time I've encountered this."

After hearing this, Shen Bai looked forward and saw two people, one big and one small, walking on the official road not far away.

The middle-aged woman was holding a little boy of six or seven years old in her left hand, and dragging a heavy box in her right hand. There was a rope on the box that passed through her right hand and she was dragging it with her shoulder.

The long trace was dragged longer and longer along the official road.

Both of them had white cloth on their heads, and this outfit seemed to be used when wearing mourning clothes.

Walking on the official road at this time, carrying a box and wearing white mourning cloth, the more you look at it, the more bizarre it seems.

Shen Bai said: "Go and ask what happened. If there is nothing wrong, ask them to make way so that I can go back earlier."

The coachman nodded and drove the carriage slowly forward.

As they approached, the driver shouted, "The two men in front, please make way. The person sitting in the carriage is of noble status, and you cannot block the way."

What he said was true. Shen Bai's status in the Great Zhou Kingdom was indeed precious.

Not to mention that he was the chief of the Tiansi Department, just the fact that he performed brilliantly in this internal examination was enough to make Shen Bai a rising star in the Great Zhou Kingdom.

At least among the younger generation, no one can compare to Shen Bai.

To put it even more outrageously, Shen Bai can now decide life or death with just one word.

The middle-aged woman who was with her child was startled by the sound, and hurriedly moved to the side, pulling a half-person-high wooden box.

The little boy, about six or seven years old, was pale and thin, without any strength in his body. He let the middle-aged woman pull him to the side of the official road.

The coachman drove the carriage past.

At this moment, the little boy suddenly showed abnormality.

The little boy, who was originally pale and skinny, turned into a shadow and rushed straight towards the carriage.

The little boy held an arm-long dagger in his right hand, and no one knew where he got it from.

A flash of light appeared on the dagger and it directly pierced the window of the carriage.

The frame of the carriage fell apart, and the dagger stabbed Shen Bai's heart without hesitation.

Shen Bai looked at this sudden attack with a calm expression and patted Amber's back with his right hand.

A low growl came from Amber's mouth.

Amber jumped up and bumped into the little boy's chest. The little boy flew backwards, spitting blood from his mouth and rolling on the ground several times.

"Master Shen, are you okay?" The coachman was also shocked.

He never expected to be assassinated at this time, so he quickly stopped the carriage.

Shen Bai held the driver's shoulder and shook his head, saying, "Nothing, let's see what's going on."

After Amber fell to the ground, it immediately changed in the wind, became the size of a tiger, and rushed towards the fallen little boy with a roar.

At this time, the middle-aged woman finally took action.

She just swung the wooden box up, and the heavy wooden box half a person's height shattered with a loud bang. After the wooden box shattered, a short man half a meter tall rolled out from it.

The short man kicked his feet and pounced on Amber.

Amber roared again, and the negative energy in her body formed a terrifying air wave that crushed the short man to death.

A mouthful of blood spurted out of the short man's mouth. He was seriously injured after just one encounter.

Seeing this, the middle-aged woman turned around and prepared to escape.

But Amber didn't give this opportunity. She turned into a gust of wind and slapped the middle-aged woman on the back.

The middle-aged woman immediately saw stars, became weak all over, and fell to the ground.

As a strange beast, especially a combat-type strange beast, Amber should be majestic.

But since following Shen Bai, he has basically been treated as a pendant.

If Amber had not eaten the Transformation Pearl later, which could provide Shen Bai with a boost in combat power, she felt that it was really no different from a pendant.

Now that Amber finally has the chance to perform, she is naturally excited.

At this moment, Amber finally remembered her identity as a fighter against strange beasts. She couldn't help but roar and wanted to kill these people to add to the fun.

Shen Bai said calmly: "Leave him alive."

Amber's slap stopped in mid-air, and then she obediently took two steps back, but her cold eyes were still staring at the three people.

If they make any unusual movement, Amber will tear them apart.

The three men were seriously injured after this battle and even turning over was extremely difficult for them.

Shen Bai sat beside the carriage, took out a pot of wine from the side, and took a sip lightly: "Who sent you here?"

Not many people knew about his return, and it would be hard to explain why he was assassinated here for no apparent reason, unless he was the enemy.

After Shen Bai finished speaking, the man, who was only half a meter tall, struggled to get up, but it was useless as he was seriously injured.

"Shen Bai, even though we failed, there are more people coming to kill you."

"Why?" Shen Bai asked, "I remember that among the several forces I offended, you didn't seem to be related. You weren't a Taoist priest, a monk, or a lunatic from the academy. So who were you?"

The little boy, about seven or eight years old, tore off the human skin mask on his face, revealing a skinny face.

"Why do you care who we are? We lost to you today, so just take our lives. Why waste your time talking?"

Shen Bai turned to look at the driver: "Turn your head away, what's coming next might be cruel."

The driver laughed and said, "Your Excellency is worrying too much. I am also a man of the world and have seen a lot of bloodshed. I don't think it is that cruel. These are just trivial matters."

Shen Bai didn't say anything else, then raised his finger and a burst of Qi burst out from his fingertips.

Along with the breeze, Qi entered the bodies of the three people.

The next moment, the horrible poison erupted in the three people.

The three of them rolled and roared on the ground, tortured by pain.

The waves of pain seemed to penetrate deep into their bones, causing them to feel pain from their skin to their internal organs, leaving no part of their body feeling better.

"Physical pain is only outwardly expressed. We will never tell anyone about it even if we die!" The middle-aged woman gritted her teeth and banged her head hard on the ground to relieve the pain.

Shen Bai frowned.

The method he used just now was a toxin from the poison avoidance and rejuvenation technique, which could cause people to suffer extremely horrible pain.

But these three people actually managed to hold on.

"Kill them." Shen Bai said calmly.

Since he had endured such torture, Shen Bai felt that he would not be able to get anything out of him.

Amber roared, and then a wave of Yin energy swept over. The three people were immediately bombarded by the Yin energy amid the terrifying roar and turned into three corpses.

After doing all this, Amber turned into a kitten and jumped into Shen Bai's arms, as if the terrifying beast at the beginning was not it.

Shen Bai looked at the broken carriage and said, "Can it be repaired?"

The driver nodded and snapped his fingers.

If this business cannot even repair the damaged goods, it will not be praised as a wartime transport business.

As the driver made this move, streams of air swept up the broken pieces of wood and restored the carriage at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Let's go back to Fenglin Province and see who exactly wants to target me." Shen Bai said.

"Yes."

The driver responded respectfully, raised his whip, and headed towards Fenglinzhou.

Soon, the carriage disappeared on the official road.

……

Maple Forest State.

Liu Wufeng, Mu Lao, Long Yan and others stood at the gate of the Tianjian Division, waiting patiently.

Many members of the Tianjian Division would stop here from time to time, stretching their necks to look towards the end of the street.

According to the schedule, today is the day when Shen Bai returns, so everyone is looking forward to it.

They thought Shen Bai would shine in the internal exam, but they didn't expect it to be even more outrageous than they imagined.

A man destroyed the plan of the academy genius Wang Tianxing and even killed Wang Tianxing.

This news has spread throughout the world.

The two names Shen Bai are also remembered by many people in the martial arts world.

Liu Wufeng felt very proud, after all, Shen Bai was specially recruited by him.

Today's Shen Bai has already surpassed him, and he has benefited a lot from this.

Mu Lao's face was full of relief.

He felt that he had not misjudged this little guy, so he gave Hanyue to Shen Bai and let Hanyue follow Shen Bai and become famous in the world.

Long Yan was purely curious.

She really wanted to take off Shen Bai's clothes and see what Shen Bai was made of that could improve so quickly.

The three of them, each with their own different emotions, would occasionally look at the end of the street.

At this moment, a carriage slowly drove in from the end of the street and finally stopped at the door of the Jiantian Division.

Shen Bai opened the carriage curtain and said with a smile, "Everyone, I'm back."
