Thousand-Faced Poison Lord in a Gale

This is to prevent the man in black from bleeding to death.

The reason is actually quite simple: they wanted to get something out of the men in black.

Xu Bai is the one who severed the limbs, and Xu Bai is also the one who treats the other party. The sense of disparity is very strong.

Qing Xue was slightly stunned.

"What are you spacing out for? Hurry up and bring it here. Do you want him to die?" Xu Bai frowned and urged.

After all this commotion, the man in black had lost a lot of blood. Even though he was no ordinary person, losing so much blood made him increasingly weak.

Qing Xue snapped out of her daze, took out a bottle the size of a baby's fist from her bosom, and handed it to Xu Bai.

The bottle was still warm, obviously from Qing Xue's body temperature.

Xu Bai opened the bottle cap and sprinkled external wound medicine on the wounds on the black-clad man's limbs.

The Shadow Courier Station Trauma Medicine was remarkably effective; once the medicine was applied, the black-clad man's wound stopped bleeding.

The bleeding has stopped, but the pain remains.

The man in black kept shouting.

Xu Bai fiddled with the medicine bottle, looked at the man in black in front of him, and tore off the black cloth covering the man's face, revealing his true appearance.

The man in black in front of me had an ordinary appearance; he was just a middle-aged man in his forties, with nothing particularly remarkable about him.

Although his injuries had healed, the pain remained. His face was covered in sweat, and when Xu Bai stared at him, he gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and pretended that he wouldn't say anything.

Xu Bai turned to Qing Xue and asked, "Do you have a method for searching souls?"

If Liu Xu and Wu Hua were here, they would definitely have a huge headache, because Xu Bai is just too obsessed with the matter of soul searching.

Qing Xue shook her head, indicating that she did not have that method.

"Unless someone specifically trains to develop this ability, most people don't actually have it," she added.

Xu Bai propped his chin up with his hand and walked back and forth once.

The man in black kept his eyes closed, seemingly unconcerned, as if he actually hoped for a quick and painless death.

"Fine, I'll do it myself." Xu Bai put down his hand and sighed.

"Listen carefully, I'm still giving you one chance. If you don't want to suffer the pain of being torn to pieces, quickly tell me, what is your purpose in coming here besides framing someone?"

Upon hearing this, the man in black kept his eyes closed and remained silent, as if he were determined not to let Xu Bai know anything.

"If it's about torture to extract a confession, I might have a way," Qing Xue suddenly said.

Xu Bai turned his head, his brows furrowed. "Why didn't you say so earlier?"

Isn't this a waste of time? Why didn't he use the method earlier? He just wasted a lot of breath.

"I didn't have a chance to say it." Qing Xue smiled bitterly, then reached into her bosom and took out a small bottle. "This is a medicine specially made by the Ninth Princess. It is excellent for interrogation and torture. Even a tough man will spill the truth after taking it."

Xu Bai took the bottle, feeling its slight warmth, and asked, "What are its effects?"

"After taking it, you will feel as if a group of ants are gnawing at your entire body from the outside in, and then from the inside out. Just one pill is enough to have an effect for half an hour," Qing Xue replied.

Xu Bai's eyes lit up.

nice one.

It's simply an essential item for traveling, staying at home, or going on vacation.

Upon hearing Qing Xue's reply, the man in black couldn't help but shudder, opening his tightly closed eyes with fear in his gaze.

There were about ten thumb-sized pills in the bottle. Xu Bai took one out and gave it to the man in black, then casually put the rest into his pocket.

Qing Xue was waiting for Xu Bai to return the medicine bottle after he finished using it, but the next moment, she saw Xu Bai put the medicine away as if it were his own.

"If I hadn't come, you would be dead already. I saved you, and this is the price you paid. There's nothing wrong with that, is there?" Xu Bai said confidently.

No problem.

Qing Xue wanted to speak, but he quickly shut her down.

There was no problem, after all, someone had saved her. Although, in Qing Xue's opinion, Xu Bai wanted to beat up the man in black even more.

At this moment, the drug finally took effect on the man in black. The effects began to spread gradually, and the man in black opened his mouth and began to tremble.

"Uh..." The man in black had no hands or feet, and his body could not be moved. He could only tremble continuously, while letting out a series of painful groans.

Xu Bai had no idea what it felt like to be gnawed in and out by a swarm of ants.

He didn't want to know.

But seeing the man in black's pained expression, so much so that he couldn't even scream, Xu Bai realized that the medicine was quite effective.

At this point, it was impossible to ask questions, because the man in black could only feel the pain and certainly couldn't answer.

He committed suicide by biting his tongue?

It does not exist.

Don't be fooled by what you see in TV dramas; biting your tongue won't necessarily kill you, but it can actually be very painful.

The man in black trembled in pain, and the process lasted for nearly half an hour before the effects of the drug slowly wore off.

Seeing the man in black gradually return to normal, Xu Bai took out the medicine bottle, poured out a second pill with a blank expression, and prepared to give it to the man in black.

Throughout the entire process, he remained silent and did not ask any further questions.

Once the other person has experienced this level of pain, they will naturally confess everything.

Sure enough, before he could put the medicine into the man's mouth, the man spoke.

"I'll tell you everything you want to know, as long as you give me a quick death."

The man in black answered quickly, his eyes filled with fear as he stared at the medicine in Xu Bai's hand.

The pain was so intense that it was almost unbearable for ordinary people. It was not only physical torture, but also a long and continuous mental tearing.

After taking the first pill, he couldn't take it anymore. When he saw the second pill, his fear was amplified to an extreme, completely shattering his defenses. Like a dam bursting, it was unstoppable.

Xu Bai was very satisfied with the man in black's performance. He put the medicine back into the bottle and put it away carefully before saying with interest, "Tell me about it. I hope your information will satisfy me."

The man in black nodded repeatedly, not daring to slacken in the slightest. "It was the Sixth Prince. The Sixth Prince ordered me to kill this woman, frame you for her death, and then incite conflict between you and the Ninth Princess so that the Ninth Princess would take action against you."

He answered quickly, afraid of being too slow, so he took another pill.

Xu Bai frowned.

The man in black's answer was exactly what he had expected.

It was indeed a case of framing someone.

But there's a question: what benefit would this bring to the Sixth Prince? Even if he succeeds and causes conflict between Xu Bai and the Ninth Princess, what will happen next? People in the royal family are all very cunning and shrewd; they definitely have follow-up plans.

Thinking of this, Xu Bai asked the question.

"I don't know, I really don't know. The Sixth Prince only told me to stir up conflict between you, and he didn't say a word else." The man in black answered honestly.

"One more." Xu Bai put the second pill into the man in black's mouth.

The man in black experienced pain again, exactly the same as before.

Qing Xue watched the whole process.

When she saw Xu Bai expressionlessly stuff the second pill into the man in black's mouth, she couldn't help but shudder.

That's ruthless.

Since they weren't sure if the man in black was telling the truth, they used the second pill to test him without hesitation.

Act decisively and without hesitation.

Qing Xue felt that her evaluation of Xu Bai had to rise even higher; this man of the martial world was no ordinary person.

The pain lasted for another half hour. When the pain subsided, the man in black stared blankly at the ceiling.

When pain came one after another, he lost his desire to live and only wanted a quick end.

"I really don't know, I really don't know..." the man in black muttered to himself.

He could only repeat that sentence; he couldn't say anything else. It was a sign of extreme pain. The repeated torment had driven him to the brink of mental instability.

"If I bring this to the Ninth Princess, can it serve as evidence pointing to the Sixth Prince?" Xu Bai asked, turning his head.

After taking two pills, the man in black even went insane.

But we couldn't get any further results from the inquiry, so it seems very likely that they genuinely don't know.

"No, without solid evidence, his words alone are not enough to prove a crime. After all, the Sixth Prince could say that we just found someone to frame him," Qing Xue said, shaking her head.

Xu Bai drew his Ghost-Head Saber from his waist and, without saying a word, killed the man in black with a single strike.

Before the man in black died, he showed a relieved expression, as if he was no longer going to suffer that kind of torment and felt particularly relaxed.

After killing the man in black, silence returned to the surroundings.

"Speaking of which, it seems like the members of the royal family aren't very capable," Xu Bai suddenly said.

Qing Xue was slightly taken aback, but quickly understood what Xu Bai meant.

The statement that the royal family members are not very capable naturally refers to these individuals.

The Sixth Prince sent someone to frame him; this person was a seventh-rank expert. The Ninth Princess sent Qing Xue, whose strength was also only seventh-rank.

If they had sent a skilled expert, things wouldn't have come to this.

"This is all because of His Majesty. His Majesty does not allow members of the royal family to have vassals of the sixth rank or higher. Even the members of the royal family themselves can only cultivate what His Majesty provides and cannot seek other things on their own," Qing Xue explained. "Of course, those who truly protect the members of the royal family are far more powerful than this, but they will not be loyal to the members of the royal family."

Upon hearing this, Xu Bai gave a knowing look.

His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Chu Kingdom possesses an unbelievably strong control over power.

Royal family members can only cultivate the skills given by the emperor, and the vassals they recruit cannot have a strength exceeding the sixth rank.

This alone is enough to keep all members of the royal family firmly in check.

Who would dare to defy the emperor? No one would.

Of course, he did provide security for the royal family members. He personally dispatched guards to protect them, but these guards were loyal only to the emperor.

Of course, don't assume that the royal family can't mobilize these guards.

If anyone dares to offend the dignity of these royal members, these guards will become a knife, plunging straight into that person's heart.

This is also a privilege of members of the royal family.

"No wonder Qing Xue, a personal maid, is only a seventh-rank official."

After figuring it out, Xu Bai turned and looked around.

After this bloody battle, things have finally returned to normal, and Xu Bai felt there was no need to linger here.

"I have found out everything I needed to, and I will set off for the capital tomorrow to report back to the Ninth Princess," Qing Xue said.

Xu Bai hummed in response, said nothing, and prepared to turn and leave.

"The Ninth Princess is very fond of you. Are you really not going to consider it?" Qing Xue was still unwilling to give up and decided to try again.

Xu Bai shook his head and said, "I'm used to being free and independent, and I can't stand that kind of constraint. Please convey my apologies to the Ninth Princess."

Qing Xue nodded and agreed.

The Ninth Princess meant the same thing: if you can avoid offending this person, then you should.

After Xu Bai left, Qing Xue began to clean up the traces. She was used to doing these things and could do them with ease.

The next day.

When the first rays of sunlight shone in, everything came back to life, as if it had come alive.

The streets became lively and bustling, and the security escort agency gradually became more lively.

"Liu Er, come in."

Xu Bai's voice came from the backyard.

Liu Er, who was brandishing his knife in the front yard, quickly put down his weapon upon hearing the noise and rushed to the back yard.

At this time, Liu Er had undergone tremendous changes compared to before.

Although Liu Er was burly in the past, he lacked composure. The current Liu Er is quite different. In addition to being composed, there is also a glint of shrewdness in his eyes.

He had already begun to develop the Bone Severing Blade Technique and the Bone Severing Heart Sutra, and his body was generating the unique True Qi of a martial artist.

Having risen from an unranked martial artist to a ninth-rank official, Liu Er is now a completely different person.

He could personally feel the change in his strength, and became increasingly respectful to Xu Bai.

He wasn't stupid, so he naturally understood that everything he had now was given to him by Xu Bai.

The only way for him to achieve long-term development is to cling tightly to Xu Bai's coattails.

Upon arriving at the backyard, Liu Er gently knocked on the door. After receiving permission, he pushed the door open and entered.

"Greetings, Master Escort." Liu Er bowed respectfully, his voice filled with excitement.

"Hmm? True Qi?" Xu Bai took a sip of tea, looked up and sized Liu Er up and down, and said with satisfaction, "You have good talent."

This is the truth, without a trace of falsehood.

The Bone Severing Heart Sutra is actually not very advanced; even among first-tier martial arts, it belongs to the lower tier.

However, after Liu Er obtained the Bone Severing Blade Technique and the Bone Severing Heart Sutra, he was indeed able to cultivate a breath of True Qi in a short period of time, which Xu Bai thought was quite remarkable.

In addition to skills, Xu Bai gained insights into various aspects from maxed-out comprehension.

For example, in swordsmanship, he can see all the variations and flaws in swordsmanship below the second level, including second-level swordsmanship.

In addition to that, there is also vision.

"It's all thanks to the good things the adults gave me. I'm just following the adults' teachings step by step in my cultivation," Liu Er said respectfully.

When it comes to flattery, Liu Er is far more talented than he is at cultivation.

"I called you over to see your results. Now that you've succeeded, I'll keep my promise." Xu Bai put down his teacup, picked up the book he'd gotten from the bookstore, and continued working on the progress bar.

The escort agency's progress bar was quiet, allowing him to focus wholeheartedly on perfecting the project and check on Liu Er's progress. The day passed just like that.

Seeing that Xu Bai had nothing to instruct him on, Liu Er obtained Xu Bai's consent before taking his leave.

Xu Bai didn't go out during the day either. As for breakfast and dinner, Liu Er brought them over. He spent the entire morning and afternoon reading the books in his hands.

Because he was single-minded and focused on the progress bar, he reaped great rewards.

When night fell, all the people from the escort agency left, leaving him alone in the entire agency once again.

The night was cool, so Xu Bai put on a coat and continued watching by the light of the oil lamp.

Time passed slowly, and it went from just after dark to late at night.

"I'll work on it again tomorrow," Xu Bai thought, getting up to blow out the oil lamp.

Just then, someone knocked on his door.

"Do do do..."

The sound was very soft, but it was especially noticeable at night.

Xu Bai put down the book in his hand, picked up the Ghost-Head Saber on the table, and slung it over his waist.

"Brother Xu, it's me."

A familiar voice rang out from outside the door; it was Yun Zihai.

Xu Bai frowned and went to the door.

It's so late, why did Yun Zihai suddenly come to see him? Could it be that the plan has finally made progress?

"Etc."

Xu Bai opened the door.

The darkness outside the door invaded, and the light in the room dimmed slightly.

Yun Zihai stood in the darkness, a smile on his face.

"Brother Xu, may we go inside to talk?"

A faint, unusual fragrance wafted out; it was so subtle that you couldn't smell it unless you sniffed carefully.

Xu Bai felt a sharp pain between his eyebrows, as if something had pricked him there.

Something's not right!

With his current strength, he shouldn't be experiencing that kind of pain.

Thinking of this, Xu Bai took a step back.

But the next moment, he found that his steps had slowed down.

Moreover... the stinging sensation between my eyebrows intensified slightly.

Fortunately, my True Yuan Power is circulating in time, relieving the stinging pain.

"Poison?"

Thinking back to the smell he had just experienced, Xu Bai easily guessed the reason.

Yun Zihai, who was standing at the door, suddenly moved, raised his hand, and scattered a cloud of white powder.

"Buzz..."

A beam of dark light rose from Xu Bai's body, blocking the white powder from entering.

Some of the white powder floated on the ground, immediately corroding a large area of the ground.

Xu Bai raised his head, and when he looked again, the Yun Zihai had disappeared.

"What's going on?"

The backyard was quiet; there was no one else besides him. It was as if Yun Zihai had never been there.

But what just happened really did happen; there was no faking it.

In the middle of the night, Yun Zihai came to ambush him, and even used poison? Why does this feel so strange? Xu Bai thought to himself.

Just then, a figure rode the pages of a book and slid over the wall.

"Brother Xu, were you ambushed? Does someone look exactly like me?" Yun Zihai asked as soon as he entered the backyard.

That anxious look didn't seem to be feigned.

"Wait a minute." Xu Bai spoke up in time, telling Yun Zihai to stay away from him and not get any closer, "If you take another step, I can't guarantee I won't draw my sword and chop you down."

Upon hearing this, Yun Zihai quickly stopped, but his face showed no other emotional reaction. Instead, he suddenly realized and said, "Sure enough, you've encountered it too. It's the Thousand-Faced Poison Lord who was sent to hunt me down."

"The Thousand-Faced Poison Lord?" Xu Bai looked him up and down.

"What a lame nickname! Who gave it to him?" Yun Zihai. "Among the seventh-rank masters in the martial arts world, this person is extremely difficult to deal with. There are even rumors that he has killed a sixth-rank master."

"They're quite strong," Xu Bai said.

To be able to defeat a sixth-rank opponent while being a seventh-rank opponent is indeed a sign of strength. After all, challenging opponents of higher ranks is not something that can be done casually.

But this guy seems to have taken a liking to him.

"It's not that he's strong, but that he's impossible to defend against. The Thousand-Faced Poison Lord is a martial artist and a master of Poison Master. He is skilled in disguise, poison, and a sophisticated movement technique." Yun Zihai said slowly, "He approaches with his disguise, attacks with his poison, and if he can't win, he uses his sophisticated movement technique to leave. He is impossible to defend against."

Disguise can change one's appearance, and one can easily be approached if one is not careful. Poisoning is different from others; it is all about the cunning and the ability to infiltrate unscrupulous people.

If you can't win, then use your skillful movement techniques to escape.

After escaping, they will look for another opportunity.

Once targeted by the Thousand-Faced Poison Lord, it's incredibly difficult to escape, because Thousand-Faced Poison Lord's like a stubborn plaster that you can't shake off.

"This guy took me down with him too." Xu Bai stroked his chin and said, "By the way, are you a real person?"

Yun Zihai said helplessly, "The Thousand-Faced Poison Lord can only imitate appearance and voice at most, but he cannot imitate abilities."

Pages of a book floated around Yun Zihai, constantly swirling around him, exuding Righteous Qi.

This is something unique to scholars, Thousand-Faced Poison Lord cannot imitate.

"Brother Xu, the Thousand-Faced Poison Lord has a peculiar habit: he likes to wipe out everyone connected to his target before finally killing the target himself, leaving him to die in utter despair," Yun Zihai continued.

Xu Bai put down the Ghost-Head Saber.

"Then, how will Brother Xu prove himself?" Yun Zihai repeated Xu Bai's words.

Xu Bai snapped his fingers, and dark light appeared all around.

After the two confirmed each other's identities, Yun Zihai spoke first.

"Brother Xu, from now on, whether it's eating or drinking, or even coming into contact with people, you must be careful. The Thousand-Faced Poison Lord's poison skills are very advanced; even a sixth-rank official must be cautious."

As the saying goes, it's better to provoke a gentleman than a petty person.

What's more, this scoundrel is involved with drugs.

Poison is something that is hard to guard against; you never know when you might fall victim to it.

If Xu Bai hadn't been circulating his True Yuan Power, he might have actually been affected by that strange fragrance he smelled earlier.

Just smelling it can cause side effects; if you actually eat something poisonous, the side effects might be even greater.

"If he poisoned the well, wouldn't that harm everyone?" Xu Bai said.

Yun Zihai shook his head. "If he really does that, he will be close to his death. What His Majesty needs is a stable structure. If the Jianghu people are like docile dogs, then the Bureau of Surveillance will lose its function, and this stable structure will not exist."

"But if these people keep causing trouble without knowing the bottom line, their lives will come to an end. Assassinating an official of the imperial court can be a big deal or a small deal, but I have a mission to do now, so I will try to minimize it."

Xu Bai shrugged. "I'm fine, but you'd better not get killed by the Thousand-Faced Poison Lord before your plan is even finished."

The words may be rough, but the meaning is sound; this statement serves as a reminder.

"I already have a plan in mind. Tonight, the Thousand-Faced Poison Lord incident happened, so I came to inform you. I'll be leaving now. I'll tell you after I've finalized the plan," Yun Zihai.

Xu Bai nodded, and after watching Yun Zihai leave, he also returned to his room.

The next day.

Xu Bai got up early, picked up the book he got from the bookstore, and continued working on the progress bar.

Regarding last night, after talking with Yun Zihai, he was also thinking about how to deal with the Thousand-Faced Poison Lord.

This guy has managed to stir up trouble in the martial arts world for so long, he must have some skill. Those three abilities are indeed hard to guard against.

In Xu Bai's opinion, the most annoying ability of the Thousand-Faced Poison Lord was actually his unparalleled and exquisite movement technique.

Just like last night, if Xu Bai could catch up with him, he could easily kill him.

Therefore, Xu Bai is still feeling a bit of a headache.

The current level of the Four Xun Movement Technique seems slightly insufficient.

Physical and mental techniques have become what he needs most now.

"Let's see what skills are in this book first," Xu Bai thought to himself as he worked through the progress bar.

Xu Bai stayed in the room for a while longer, until almost noon before finally going out.

The bodyguards had already been training at the escort agency, and they greeted Xu Bai one by one upon seeing him.

Now that Liu Er has become a rank-3 martial artist, he trains even more diligently.

Flattery alone won't get you far; once you lose your usefulness, you'll be abandoned.

Liu Er is well aware of this and is working towards it.

After leaving the house, Xu Bai found an unusual place to eat.

Normally, Liu Er would bring it to him, but after the incident with the Thousand-Faced Poison Lord, he can no longer expect to be waited on hand and foot.

After all, this thing is poisonous, so it's best to be careful.

Several days passed without any further movement; it was as if the Thousand-Faced Poison Lord had vanished.

During this time, Yun Zihai came to see him once, but there was no news of him being assassinated.

Overall, there were no abnormalities.

But he knew very well that the more the opponent remained still, the more they were going to make a big fuss, and the longer they held back, the more powerful their ultimate move would be.

And the only thing I've gained over these past few days is the book in my hand.

During this time, his progress bar was finally completed.

Sitting in the room, Xu Bai took a sip of tea, looked at the light blue text in front of him, and smiled slightly.

When I was bored, I used my time to grind the game, and I also read through this novel-like book.

This book tells the story of a soldier's military career from a soldier's perspective, and the most captivating part is the fighting in the army.

The description is excellent, especially the scenes of thousands of troops, which are particularly grand.

The book says that when thousands of troops charge into battle, everyone must be careful with every step they take, because if they make a mistake, they will be trampled by their comrades behind them.

Pace is extremely important.

Seeing these descriptions, Xu Bai got a general idea of what was going on, and he became increasingly excited about this skill, comparing it with his own expectations.

As it turns out, the comparison was indeed accurate.

But after the blue smoke appeared, it gradually coalesced into a line of text.

You studied anonymous books and learned the Marching Step.

As messages flooded his mind, the pale blue text before him changed.

[Mergeable options found, currently in progress.]

[Four Xun Movement Technique + Marching Step = Four-Directional Step Technique.]

[Merger successful.]

The pale blue smoke transformed back into information and was transmitted back into Xu Bai's mind.

The latest panel has appeared.

[Name: Xu Bai]

[Realm Level: Eighth Rank Loose Cultivator.]

[Severing Armor One Style (Tier 2): Max Level]

[Inverted Chaos of the Four Directions Mind Technique (Tier 2.5): Max Level.]

[Maple Leaves Like Rain (Tier 2): Max Level]

[Four-Directional Step Technique (Tier 3): Max Level.]

[Cosmic Shift (Tier 4): Max Level]

[Vajra Heart Demon Body (Tier 4); Max Level.]

[Strengthening Kidney Method (Tier 4): Max Level]

[Comprehension: Max level.]

The Four Xun Movement Technique is only at the first level, which is considered a very weak skill, at least in the current situation.

However, with the addition of Marching Step, it becomes a four-step march, which has reached the standard of the third rank.

The original Marching Step emphasized a method of charging and fighting, as well as long-distance travel.

It possesses strong endurance, speed, and offensive capabilities, making it suitable for military use.

However, now that the Four Xun Movement Technique has been integrated, the power of Daoist formations has been added to the Four-Directional Step Technique, greatly improving the flexibility of dodging and maneuvering.

Speed, endurance, aggression, and agility.

With these four characteristics working together perfectly, it reaches the standard of the third tier.

After absorbing all the information in his mind, Xu Bai smiled.

As expected of Little Gold.

It's like getting exactly what you want.

Thinking of this, Xu Bai glanced around the room.

The floor inside the room was covered with iron nails, laid out at intervals, and the walls were covered not only with hidden arrows but also with many nets.

If an ordinary person were to enter his house, they would be covered in wounds within two steps.

He hasn't been idle these past few days; he designed this whole room full of traps.

We have to thank Liu Xu. Before, when I sneaked into Liu Xu's room, I saw Liu Xu setting up all sorts of traps.

These days, who doesn't play dirty tricks? He was just waiting for the Thousand-Faced Poison Lord to come up, so that if the trap was triggered, he could take him out easily.

But now it seems a bit unnecessary.

"I don't know if I'm faster or you're faster. We'll find out when we try." Xu Bai tapped his fingers on the table, thinking to himself, "I can't wait."

Night falls.

The wind is a bit strong tonight, and it's slightly chilly.

Moreover, the wind tonight is different from other times; it's very chaotic.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe it as having winds coming from all directions.

Xu Bai lay on the bed and placed the Ghost-Head Saber on the bedside table.

The wind was so strong that the windows were trembling slightly.

"Squeak... squeak... squeak..."

Along with the sound of the wind came the desperate screams from the edge of the window.

The wind was so strong that the windows seemed unable to withstand it.

Xu Bai got out of bed, hung the Ghost-Head Saber on his waist, walked to the window, pressed the window shut, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Great Wind are normal at this time of year.

However, if the wood around the window turns black on Great Wind day, that's not normal.

poisonous.

Xu Bai circulated his True Yuan Power and unleashed the Vajra Heart Demon Body.

A layer of dark light enveloped him, isolating him from the outside world.

The paper on the window gradually turned black as the Great Wind blew, and then, in less than two breaths, the paper on the window tore.

The gale seemed to have found an outlet, pouring into the room through the hole.

It's here!
