The night is quiet, and the hustle and bustle of the day gradually fades away.
Lin Mu, who was lying on the bed in the small courtyard, suddenly opened his eyes.
In the black pupils, strong murderous intent burst out. Qiao Yushi, did you really think that the matter was over?
Lin Chongyun was not abolished during the day, and the anger in his heart was not vented at all. Only killing could calm his mind.
For the Pure Yang Sword, and to calm down his anger, Qiao Yushi must die!
No matter what your background is, even if you are the illegitimate son of the King of Heaven, you can only draw blood for my flying knife today.
He stood up and took out a black suit from the space ring. Not long after, a ghostly black shadow silently left the Lin Mansion and swept outside.
It was not difficult to find out where Qiao Yushi lived, because the other party did not hide anything and rented a luxurious mansion in the city in a very grand manner.
During the day, Lin Mu knew the place from other people's conversations and now headed straight for the mansion.
"When a young man from a powerful force like Qiao Yushi goes out, there must be guards guarding him secretly. I must be cautious. I only have one chance to kill him. If I miss it, I must retreat."
There was no moon in the sky, and Lin Mu seemed to blend into the night, but he still didn't care, and used the breathing method to restrain his own breath.
Carefully jumping onto the wall, Lin Mu soon discovered that there was another room in the mansion that had not turned off the lights, and there were faint sounds of conversation coming from inside.
With a body like a civet, it moved quietly, chose a place close to the house, and lurked again.
The sound of conversation suddenly became clear.
"Young Master." A hoarse voice came out.
Then, Qiao Yushi's voice sounded: "Thirteen, I asked you to come this time because I want you to help me with something."
"My responsibility is to protect the safety of the young master." The thirteen guards said coldly.
"Hmph, who in this little Xichuan City dares to plot something against me?" Qiao Yushi was full of disdain, "And this is a very easy trivial matter, and it won't take you long."
The thirteen guards were silent for a moment, as if hesitating, and then asked: "What's the matter?"
He knew Qiao Yushi's character very well. If he didn't follow the other party's instructions, he would never carry out the task seriously. If the matter really didn't take long, he could only consider solving it as soon as possible.
"That boy from the Lin family dared to refuse my kindness during the day. It's so shameless. I feel very unhappy. Go and kill him." Qiao Yushi said fiercely.
"Yes." The Thirteen Guards did not hesitate this time. For him, killing a child of a third-rate small family was indeed not a big deal.
Lin Mu, who was in the dark, had a colder look in his eyes after hearing this. Fortunately, he decided decisively and chose to kill Qiao Yushi tonight, otherwise he would not have heard this conversation.
Not to mention that he didn't deal with Qiao Yushi, as long as he made up his mind a little later, I'm afraid he would be killed by Qiao Yushi's guards.
Lin Mu did not dare to detect the strength of the thirteen guards. Under his observation, the opponent was like a bottomless whirlpool. The sense of oppression was stronger than that of Lin Zheng. He suspected that the opponent was very likely to surpass the warrior.
He is a strong martial artist.
Seeing that the thirteen guards were about to come out, Lin Mu became more cautious, lowered himself down, stopped observing with his Heavenly Eyes, and held his breath.
He didn't know what the other party was capable of, and he didn't want to be accidentally discovered by the other party, which would put him in real danger.
Opening the door, a short man in black walked out. He first scanned the surroundings to make sure he didn't find anything, then he felt relieved and turned into an afterimage and left.
Seeing the other party's terrifying speed, Lin Mu's heart tightened even more. It was so fast that he didn't even react, and the other party's figure had disappeared.
Lin Mu still didn't take action immediately. He waited until the thirteen guards were completely away before he raised his head again.
Regarding Qiao Yushi, he didn't have so many scruples. He directly used the power of his soul to sense the opponent's aura, and quickly judged that Qiao Yushi was a second-level warrior, with the same cultivation level as Lin Chongyun, but with much stronger background.
No wonder Qiao Yushi is so confident. This kind of strength is indeed not weak in Xichuan City. If it were anyone else, even if he couldn't resist, he would still be able to persist for a long time.
Unfortunately, it was Lin Mu who wanted to kill him tonight.
Lin Mu's own strength was not much stronger than Qiao Yushi's. It took him a long time to defeat Lin Chongyun in the Lin Mansion during the day.
But that's based on the fact that he didn't use a flying knife.
Without the use of flying knives, Lin Mu estimated that his overall strength was similar to that of a third-level warrior.
But once he uses the flying knife, in that short moment, he can explode with the power of a fifth-level or even sixth-level warrior.
The Heaven Eye Jue creates incomparable precision, combined with explosive power, Lin Mu's flying knife can be called a deadly flying knife.
The silver flying knife slid into his right hand, and as Lin Mu's arm trembled violently, an afterimage immediately shot out.
Buzz!
Under the thick darkness of night, even a skilled martial artist would have difficulty detecting this death-like shadow.
For knife-throwing warriors, night is undoubtedly an excellent time.
Qiao Yushi had no idea that the murderous intention had come, and still kept a cold smile on her face. It was too long for a country bumpkin to dare to jump in front of him.
Suddenly, Qiao Yushi felt a dazzling burst of light. It was the light reflected from the lamp in the room, shining on the flying knife.
Qiao Yushi's pupils suddenly tightened, sensing an unprecedented crisis. Unfortunately, it was too late, the flying knife was too close.
Poof!
The cold and merciless flying knife suddenly penetrated his throat, and he couldn't even scream.
After the flying knife, there was a figure, and Lin Mu also entered through the window.
"It's you?"
Seeing Lin Mu's face, Qiao Yushi opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say these two words. At this moment, his heart was filled with endless disbelief and regret.
He really couldn't believe that Lin Mu, a country bumpkin, dared to kill him, and that he, Qiao Yushi, would die at the hands of an unknown little person.
He regretted that during the day at Lin's house, in order to show his grace, he did not take action against this disobedient person in time.
He was unwilling to die like this. He was unwilling to send his guards out to kill Lin Mu, so he gave Lin Mu a chance.
However, the God of Death is undoubtedly the most cruel and merciless existence in the world. No matter what your status was during life, no matter how talented you are, when you die, he will ruthlessly take away your life.
Qiao Yushi's steps were swaying and her hands were struggling, as if she didn't want to fall.
Lin Mu was not interested in watching his performance, so he pulled out the flying knife indifferently, letting the blood spurt violently, and Qiao Yushi's body slowly falling down.
He didn't even look at Qiao Yushi. His eyes fell on a cabinet in front of the bed, where several weapons were placed.
The Pure Yang Sword is right in the center of these weapons.
"Huh? These weapons all seem to be of the Sun attribute. Why does Qiao Yushi collect so many similar weapons?"
This thought only flashed through Lin Mu's mind, and his eyes quickly turned cold.
Anyway, even Qiao Yushi was killed, so he just kept doing nothing. Moreover, the quality of these weapons was very good, even if it was not as good as the Pure Yang Sword, it was not far behind.
He immediately waved his hand and put all the weapons into the space ring.
"This Qiao Yushi's identity shouldn't be too terrifying. He doesn't even have a space ring."
Lin Mu secretly thought that if there was a space ring, these weapons would definitely not be left like this. They would all be put into the space ring.
But now he didn't have time to think too much. The person had been killed and the things had been taken. He was worried that the thirteen guards would come back, so he didn't dare to hesitate. He jumped out of the window and quickly disappeared into the night.
Not long after Lin Mu left, the fourteen-year-old guard returned. Because he went to the Lin Mansion, he found that Lin Mu was missing, so he had to come back to resume his life.
In his mind, being a Lin Mu is a trivial matter, but Qiao Yushi must not make any mistakes.
But as soon as they approached the mansion and before entering the door, the thirteen guards felt uneasy in their hearts. There was a faint smell of blood in the air.
"No!"
The expressions of the thirteen guards changed drastically, and they rushed into the house crazily and broke into Qiao Yushi's house.
The smell of blood is even stronger.
The bodies of the thirteen guards began to tremble and they looked at the ground in horror.
At this time, Qiao Yushi was no longer breathing and was lying quietly in a pool of blood. There was a deep blood hole in his throat, and blood was still pouring out.
"Xichuan City is going to change."
After a long time, he raised his head, with deep fear on his face.
A direct descendant of the Qiao family died in such a small town. He could foresee what a violent storm he would fall into.
When he thought of Qiao Yushi's father and master being angry, his soul could not help but be surrounded by fear.
"It must be remedied. I must make remediation before his people arrive."
After all, the Thirteen Guards had seen many big scenes and regained their composure in time.
"The young master was murdered and all the Zhiyang weapons were gone. Is this a conspiracy by the master's rival or a personal vendetta?"
Suddenly, his eyes were as sinister as an eagle's, and he carefully observed his surroundings.
"Huh? The young master's wounds seem to have been caused by flying knives, and the fluctuations in spiritual power are not strong. He is at most a warrior."
After collecting all the clues at the scene, he no longer hesitated.
First, he sent information to the Qiao family, and then he quickly went straight to a certain direction in Xichuan City.
Not long after, he came to a small mountain. In front of him was a huge palace. The plaque on the door had three large characters inlaid with gold: Palace of Controlling Beasts.
"Old Man Controlling Beasts." Standing at the door, the thirteen guards shouted coldly and unceremoniously.
Within a moment of the sound coming out, the door opened with a bang.
"I don't know if Mr. Thirteen's arrival is too late..."
Behind the door, the old man who controls the beast hurriedly walked out, saluting with a flattering expression.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense."
Before he could finish speaking, the thirteen guards waved their hands to interrupt.
Normally, he might not be so rude. After all, this is the territory of the old man who controls the beast.
But now that the situation is urgent, he naturally doesn't have the time to think so much.
The old man controlling the beast lowered his head slightly, a gloomy look flashed in his eyes, and he was very dissatisfied with the attitude of the thirteen guards.
However, his dissatisfaction completely disappeared in the next moment, replaced by fear.
"Young master, he is dead."
The thirteen guards stared at him with ice-like eyes.
"What?"
The old man controlling the beast was shocked. This news was unbelievable, but he believed that as the Thirteen Guards, it was impossible for him to make such a joke.
"We can all foresee the master's anger, but at this point, all we can do is make up for it."
The voice of the Thirteen Guards remained cold and unchanged, "It's just that you also know that the identity of the Shadow Guards cannot be revealed to the public, so you can only come forward."
"Mr. Thirteen, I wonder what I can do? Do you know the identity of the murderer?"
The old man who controlled the beast made a decision immediately. Qiao Yushi was actually dead. He was very aware of the seriousness of the matter, so he did not dare to neglect it at all.
"If I knew the identity of the murderer, there would be no need for me to come here."
With that said, the Thirteen Guards changed the topic again, "But there are still many suspects. I will give you a list, and you must investigate all the people on it."
"Also, there is a person named Lin Mu on the list. You have to focus on reviewing it. I want to find out whether he can use throwing knives."
"Yes." The old man who controls the beast nodded, and then hesitated: "What should we do if we find that Lin Mu knows how to use a flying knife, but there is no other evidence?"
"evidence?"
The Thirteen Guards ridiculed: "Young master is dead, what evidence do you care about? Our words are evidence. Not only Lin Mu, but all the people under investigation, regardless of whether there is evidence or not, will be arrested on the spot by me. I will have many means to arrest them afterwards."
They confessed."
In his heart, no matter whether Lin Mu was the suspect in killing Qiao Yushi, he must die.
If it wasn't for the purpose of killing Lin Mu, he wouldn't have left Qiao Yushi and let the latter encounter something unexpected, so he decided to kill Lin Mu.
"Sir is wise."
The old man controlling the beast licked his lips and said, "Soldiers are very quick. I will take action now. Don't worry, no one who is suspected will be able to escape."
