Baby, It's All Up to You!

After dealing with the assassin, Xian He stuffed the spoils into his clothes, righted the small cart, placed the bloodstained clothes on it, and then pulled the cart out of the alley.

He didn't deal with the corpse.

As the concentration of adrenaline in his body decreased, he gradually regained his senses and normal reactions. If he had touched the corpse in this state, he would have definitely been disgusted to the point of vomiting.

"It's highly likely that bastard Xiao Yang hired someone to kill me," Xian He guessed as he walked towards his neighbor's house.

Among all his enemies, Xiao Yang was the wealthiest and had recently clashed with him.

First, he sent Li Zhen to beat him up, then he bought all the rice seeds he wanted, and now he sent someone to assassinate him, opposing him at every turn and trying to kill him.

With his personality of never giving up until he achieved his goal, he would definitely send more assassins.

A sense of crisis surged in his heart. Xian He lowered his head and glanced at the spot where the one-eyed man had kicked him, muttering, "My treasure, my life depends on you!"

On the way to his neighbor's house, Xian He found a secluded corner and threw away the one-eyed man's bloodstained tattered clothes.

The pungent smell of blood made his brain churn, and he couldn't help but gag.

"He's trying to disgust me even after death. As an assassin, he's truly dedicated to his job," Xian He grumbled as he continued to push the cart. "I won't go to Ji Bochang's house for now. I'll go home, take a shower, change into clean clothes, and then go."

Fortunately, the wheelbarrow wasn't stained with blood, otherwise, he would have to spend a lot of effort cleaning it.

He couldn't just use someone's things and then abandon them; otherwise, it would be difficult to borrow anything in the future.

After taking a shower at home and returning the wheelbarrow to his neighbor, Xian He entered the Inner World of the Mountain River Society Diagram.

As soon as he left the Tianyun Plateau, the corpse was discovered by the patrolling security team.

The corpse lay stark white on the ground, making it impossible to miss.

"What's going on here?"

"Probably those scumbags from Greedy Wolf's gang again."

"No, I know him. His name is Du Feng. Years ago, he tried to bully a widow, and she blinded one of his eyes with a shoe awl."

"Now that you mention it, I remember. He was responsible for that massacre years ago, wasn't he? Not only did he kill the widow and her month-old baby, but he also set their house on fire. What a heinous criminal."

"I heard he fled the tribe later and joined Greedy Wolf. How did he end up dead here? A double-cross?"

The security team members discussed amongst themselves.

After the inspection, the security captain stood up, his face solemn, and said, "The cause of death was excessive blood loss. The deceased likely engaged in a life-or-death struggle before dying. The deceased had multiple black wounds on his body, suggesting the weapon was a poisoned dagger or short blade."

"However, the killer's knife skills were very clumsy. Since the deceased was a member of Greedy Wolf, I suspect the deceased tried to assassinate the opponent but underestimated their strength and was killed in return."

"The killer's strength should be around Five-star Azure Obsidian. There are chaotic wheel tracks on the ground, and he was likely pushing a wheelbarrow at the time. Therefore, as long as we find that wheelbarrow, we can find the killer," the security captain explained eloquently.

"The deceased is a notorious wanted criminal. Do we really need to pursue the killer's responsibility?"

"Yeah, boss. Greedy Wolf has killed so many innocent people. They all deserve to die. Killing them is eliminating scourges for the people!"

The team members unanimously pleaded for the killer.

The captain waved his hand. "I'm just curious who killed Du Feng. Killing scum like him is an act worthy of commendation, not punishment. You two new recruits, did you drink the security regulations with your Wood Powder Porridge? Go back and recite them a hundred times!"

"Yes!" The young team members chuckled foolishly.

The Assembly Hall.

Li Zhen was waiting for a head for the second time.

This time, he got one.

However, it wasn't Xian He's head, but Du Feng's.

Du Feng's head was chopped off by the security patrol and displayed on a large tree outside the west gate of the Sky Fortune Tribe. A member of Greedy Wolf, passing by, stole it back.

"Trash!" Xiao Lang's eyes turned red with anger, and his eyebrows shot up.

He was sent to assassinate a mere Two-star Azure Obsidian trash, only to be killed in return and have his head displayed. He was even worse than trash!

That old fool Xiao Wu dared to oppose him. Did he think he had lived too long?

"Xiao Hou!"

"Here!"

Xiao Lang, furious, commanded, "I'm assigning the task of killing Xian He to you. Don't come back without Xian He's head!"

"Yes!" Xiao Hou accepted the order.

After issuing the command, Xiao Lang cast a sideways glance at Li Zhen and said coldly, "Go back and tell Xiao Yang that we, Greedy Wolf, will definitely deliver Xian He's head to him with our own hands. Have him prepare the money!"

"O-okay, Boss Xiao Lang," Li Zhen swallowed.

He hadn't expected that an assassin of Five-star Azure Obsidian would be killed in return by that trash Xian He. Had he been hiding his strength all along?

No! It was likely that Xiao Wu and Xiao Kuang had secretly helped.

Fortunately, he hadn't acted himself, or he would probably have been imprisoned or expelled from the tribe by Leader Xiao Wu.
