The cloaked man immediately threw out the box in his hand and waved his sleeves to disperse the red smoke in front of him, but it was still a step too late.
The cloaked man staggered and half-knelt on the ground.
He wanted to leave, but seemed to have lost his strength and could only stare coldly at the short old man not far away.
The old man had covered his mouth and nose in advance, and after the red smoke had completely dissipated, he came forward and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, sir."
"You dare to trick me!?"
The cloaked man's voice was cold, "Is this your rule?"
The short old man said helplessly: "In fact, before you came to us, some guests had already greeted me. So, it's not our fault."
"Guests? People from the underworld?"
the cloaked man asked.
The short old man did not respond, but looked towards the door of the Taoist temple.
I saw two women outside the door at some point.
One of them is Tian Shuangfeng, and the other is Duan Daming's wife, Mrs. Duan.
Li Nanke, who was hiding in the dark, was quite surprised. He didn't expect these two women to be mixed together. Could it be that they are both members of the underworld?
"Master Shangguan didn't seem surprised to see us." Mrs. Duan was dressed in a smart outfit that highlighted her good figure. She looked at the man in the cloak with a smile.
Lord Shangguan?
Shangguan Pass!
Li Nanke suddenly realized.
No wonder it looks so familiar, it’s Shangguan Pass.
"It's unexpected, but it makes sense." Seeing that the other party had figured out his identity, Shangguan Guan also returned to his original voice.
Mrs. Duan walked up to the man, took off the mask on the man's face, caressed the man's handsome cheek and said, "Sir Shangguan is really charming as a man. It would be a pity to die."
"You know who I am? How dare you kill me?"
Shangguan Guan sneered.
Tian Shuangfeng stood aside with a cold face and remained silent.
It can be seen from this situation that the person who sent her the letter was Mrs. Duan, and the target of the assassination was Shangguan Guan.
It's just that Mrs. Duan made her own decision, which made Tian Shuangfeng unhappy.
"Haha, do you really think that because of Bai Yaoquan's key cultivation, you think you are wearing an amulet? In the end, you are just a dog of the imperial court."
Mrs. Duan mocked.
Shangguan Guan said: "I know why you took the risk to kill me, but I think there is someone more dangerous than me, so you should kill him first."
"You're talking about Li Nanke, right?"
Mrs. Duan snorted coldly, "That man is indeed a big trouble, but it is much harder to kill him. Besides, in Bai Yaoquan's heart, he is more valuable than you."
Li Nanke, who was in the dark, heard the conversation and couldn't help but secretly scolded Shangguan Guan for his foul mouth.
What are you asking me to do?
"Oh, that's true." Shangguan Guan laughed at himself, glanced at Tian Shuangfeng, and said sadly, "It's worth dying in the hands of two beauties, but before you die, can you answer a few questions for me? That's it.
, let me die in peace."
Just as Mrs. Duan was about to speak, Tian Shuangfeng drew a short blade from her sleeve and said coldly: "Why waste so much talk with him? Just kill him!"
After saying that, he stabbed Shangguan Guan in the neck.
Seeing that Shangguanguan was about to be in danger, Li Nanke was about to rescue him when a powerful spiritual power suddenly burst out from around Shangguanguan, knocking the two women away.
"How did you-"
The two women looked at Shangguan Guan in shock as he slowly stood up, and their hearts were filled with turmoil.
It's obvious that the other party has been poisoned by the poisonous mist, so why is it okay?
"You are looking down on me too much. If I don't have two brushes, can I be the inspector of the Qinglong Department?"
Shangguan Guan spit out a green bead from his mouth, moved his wrist, and said regretfully, "I thought there would be experts, but it was you two weak women. But it doesn't matter, I like to interrogate women."
When the short old man saw this scene, he was so frightened that he wanted to run away, but a ghost from Shangguan Guan moved directly in front of him and strangled him by the neck.
"Shang...Sir Shangguan...me too..."
"You have no choice, I understand." After Shangguan Guan finished speaking, he broke the other person's neck.
Mrs. Duan felt a chill running down her spine when she saw this.
You must know that the short old man had a lot of information and was extremely valuable for interrogation, but now he was easily killed.
It seemed that Shangguanguan was clearly here for them.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Duan no longer dared to be too loud and took out a bone whistle and blew it hard.
In an instant, a strange aura filled the air.
A huge monster quietly appeared in the hall, its fierce eyes revealed bloodthirsty desire, and it stared at Shangguan Pass.
Although the monster looks ugly, it can still be vaguely identified as Duan Daming himself.
"There is indeed something fishy about it."
Shangguan Guan's eyes were condensed.
Tian Shuangfeng also took out his bone whistle and blew it.
The next moment, a monster appeared behind her. It was huge, with iron-like skin, covered in scales, and exuded a terrifying aura.
"Two? This is difficult to handle."
Shangguan Guan, who was about to take action, couldn't help but frown.
He took out a firecracker from under his cloak.
Li Nanke almost vomited blood when he saw this scene. Seeing the other party being so indifferent, he thought he had some magic weapon to win, but it turned out to be a blunderbuss. Isn't this funny?
Is this fire gun as powerful as mine?
"kill him!"
Mrs. Duan blew the bone whistle again.
The monster roared and rushed towards Shangguan Pass.
Another monster also rushed forward.
"boom!"
At the critical moment, Shangguan Guan pointed the gun muzzle at the roof and pulled the trigger.
Instantly, four white flame beads shot out from the muzzle.
After these four flame beads flew out of the muzzle of the gun, like missiles automatically aimed at the monster, they separated in pairs and roared towards the monster.
Just hearing a loud roar, the two attacking monsters fell heavily to the ground.
Mrs. Duan and Tian Shuangfeng were dumbfounded.
Li Nanke was also stunned.
Good guy, you can secretly use such an awesome magic weapon yourself, right?
Shangguan Guan threw away the cracked fire gun, and his movement was as agile as the wind. He appeared in front of Mrs. Duan in a flash, while his hand grabbed Tian Shuangfeng next to him.
Just when Tian Shuangfeng was about to be caught by him, an arrow suddenly shot from outside the door.
Shangguan Guan had no choice but to give up.
He looked up and saw a faceless Taoist appearing behind the two women.
This person is not a monster, he just wears a mask and even covers his eyes, which makes him look quite scary.
"I'm lucky, I caught a big fish."
Shangguan Guan raised his eyebrows.
"Owner."
When Tian Shuangfeng and Mrs. Duan saw the person coming, their faces suddenly turned pale and they knelt on the ground in fear.
The faceless Taoist ignored Shangguan Pass, but looked towards the direction of the statue, and said in a warm voice, "Since you are already here, why bother hiding."
Has it been discovered?
Li Nanke was startled and then noticed that the invisibility cassock on his body was no longer effective.
He put away his cassock and walked out from behind the statue.
"you!?"
Shangguan Guan had an exaggerated expression as if he had seen a ghost.
Then he rolled up his sleeves and said angrily: "You brat, why don't you help me if you are hiding there and watch me being bullied?" This sounded like flirting.
Li Nanke shuddered, rubbed his arms vigorously and said out of breath: "Who would recognize you when you are wearing a mask?"
Without giving Shangguan Guan a chance to continue complaining, Li Nanke stared at the faceless Taoist with sharp eyes and asked, "Your Excellency, are you interested in telling us your identity?"
