Bone Breaking

Indeed, that might not be the case.

The Raging Tiger Bandits was also notorious in Sheng County. Until now, it was only known that the Bandits was located on Dog Tail Mountain, but no one knew its exact location.

The county office of Sheng County had also sent people to encircle and annihilate it. However, Dog Tail Mountain looked like a small mountain, but the mountain path was rugged and steep. It was too difficult to find the location.

They had once managed to find it, but it was an empty stockaded village.

As the saying went, a crafty person had more than one hideout. The Raging Tiger Bandits had more than one hideout.

This also led to many failures.

No one who had been captured by the Raging Tiger Bandits had ever come back alive.

However, the Raging Tiger Bandits could always make a fortune.

For example, right now. People were creatures that were afraid of death. Even if there was the slightest hope of living, they would cling to it.

He still had to write what should be written.

After the bandit threw the items on the ground, he stood at the door with his long saber.

The others didn’t move, but Xu Bai’s eyes lit up.

This was exactly what he wanted.

Originally, he had planned to call someone in and use the excuse that he had rich relatives to trick the bandits into giving him a pen and some paper.

He didn’t expect to hit the jackpot. He didn’t even need to use his brain.

“Big brother, I’ll write!” Xu Bai raised his hand, and the iron chain around his hands rattled.

The bandit didn’t say anything and sneered.

“But Big Brother, look at me. I’m tied up. The words I wrote wouldn’t look like they were written by me.” Xu Bai shook the chain.

The bodyguards raised their heads, not understanding what Xu Bai was thinking.

“What are you trying to do?” The bandit smiled sinisterly as he held his long saber.

“Big Brother, listen to me. Look, aren’t we here for money? If it doesn’t look like I was the one who wrote the letter, my family won’t acknowledge it either. The two of you let me go first. You can tie me back up after I’m done writing it. Anyway, I’m not your match, either.” Xu Bai pointed around.

The bandit thought about it carefully. What Xu Bai said made sense.

Everyone here was tied up.

There were two of them now. It didn’t seem to be a big deal to take turns in releasing one person and to tie them back up after they’re done writing.

They were all here for money. The bandit thought for a moment and sheathed his saber.

“Don’t try anything!”

“Big Brother, don’t worry. I just want to live. If I wrote down anything that I normally won’t write and my family doesn’t acknowledge the letter, I won’t be able to keep my life.” Xu Bai pretended to be an honest person.

The bandit didn’t say anything else. He pulled Xu Bai’s chain over and lowered his head, preparing to undo it.

Xu Bai’s gaze fell on the long saber at the bandit’s waist.

Due to the darkness of the cell, the bandits were very slow in unlocking the chain.

The chains were cold, but Xu Bai was calm.

He watched as the bandit opened the chain slowly. When the chain slid down, he suddenly pressed his hand to the hilt of the saber.

This action happened too quickly for the bandits to react.

Xu Bai took two steps back and pulled out the long saber.

“Bone Breaking Saber Technique!”

He took a step to the left and drew his long saber from the bottom right to the top left.

The Genuine

Qi

in his body surged, and the long saber moved vigorously. Its momentum was exhausted.

A gash appeared on the bandit’s chest and abdomen. Blood splattered as the bandit fell to the ground.

“How dare you!”

Seeing this, the other bandit drew his saber and slashed at Xu Bai.

Xu Bai retreated. He exerted strength in his arm. The long saber intersected with another long saber. Genuine Qi penetrated the saber through his right hand.

“Clang!”

With a crisp sound, the saber in the bandit’s hand flew out and landed on the ground.

Xu Bai took advantage of the situation and charged forward with his saber.

“Urgh!”

With the strike of the saber in his chest, his lungs were injured. The bandit could not make a sound. Blood foamed from the corner of his mouth.

“Pfft!”

Xu Bai pulled out his long saber and propped it on the ground.

“Bang!”

The bandit lost his balance and fell stiffly.

The entire process took less than two breaths.

The bodyguards surrounding them were dumbfounded.

The saber technique was extremely ferocious, and the ferocious aura that assaulted one’s senses was suffocating.

It was wide and powerful, but every strike was fatal.

Was this… really their peer?

One of the bodyguards shuddered.

Xu Bai didn’t know what they were thinking as he walked over with his saber.

For some reason, he didn’t feel disgusted at all even though this was the first time he killed someone.

‘Perhaps it’s the influence of the original host,’

he thought.

When a bodyguard saw him walking over and saw the blood on his long saber, the bodyguard subconsciously retreated.

Xu Bai wiped the blood on his saber and said, “Listen, if you want to live, don’t scream. Otherwise, no one will survive.”

The bodyguards nodded repeatedly like chickens pecking at rice.

Xu Bai took the key from the bandit and took off the bandit’s clothes to change into.

He tried his best to choose the ones with less blood, but it was impossible to get rid of the smell of blood.

“Listen carefully. I’m going to lure them in later. You guys take the saber and stay here. Attack from inside and outside.” Xu Bai undid the chains on the bodyguards’ hands and threw one of the sabers to the ground.

A bodyguard plucked up his courage and picked up the saber. Before he could speak, he saw that Xu Bai had already opened the door and left.

“Pretend that your hands are still tied,” Xu Bai said before leaving.

Outside the cell was a damp walkway with oil lamps scattered on the walls.

The exit was not far away. It was daytime now, and white light shone in.

Xu Bai came to the exit and looked outside, frowning.

Outside the cell was an open space surrounded by simple houses. In the middle of the open space, there was a carriage.

He was very familiar with this carriage. It was the escort target this time.

The wheels of the carriage sank into the ground, proving that there was still something on the carriage.

Xu Bai felt that something was wrong.

Logically speaking, these bandits should have unloaded the goods inside after robbing the carriage. Why was there no movement at all?

It was not the style of bandits to not be in a hurry to sell the loot after snatching it.

However, now was not the time to think about this. Xu Bai looked at a bandit not far away and shouted.

“Brother, come here.”

He shouted very softly. The surrounding bandits were standing far away, so the other bandits could not hear him.

When the bandit heard the shout, he looked at the cell in wonder and saw his colleague waving at him, as if asking him to go over.

Due to the distance and the fact that this fellow immediately entered the cell after calling out to him, the bandit did not see him clearly.

“What’s wrong? Why are you calling me for such a small matter?” The bandit cursed as he walked in.

As soon as he reached the door, Xu Bai pulled him into the corridor of the cell.

The corridor was very dark. The bandits could not see Xu Bai’s face clearly and were slightly dissatisfied.

“What are you doing?”

“There’s a big fish,” Xu Bai whispered. “The other brother is watching inside.”

He did not say it explicitly. If he said too much, he would easily expose himself.

When the bandit heard this, his eyes lit up and he hurriedly urged Xu Bai to walk quickly.

With their line of work, how could they not be greedy?

Hearing Xu Bai’s words, he even forgot to ask what kind of big fish it was.

Xu Bai did not say much. He hooked his arm around the bandit’s shoulder and brought him to the cell inside.

In the cell, the bodyguards had returned to their previous state.

The bandit took a look from outside and didn’t notice anything unusual. He opened the cell door and walked in.

As soon as he stepped out, he became vigilant.

Something was wrong!

There should be two inside. Why was there only one now?

Where was the other one?

The bandit turned his head and there was a saber at his throat.

Behind him, a bodyguard held a long saber and maintained the same posture as Xu Bai from behind, pointing the saber on the bandit.

“Take off your clothes,” Xu Bai said indifferently.

The saber in his hand was very steady.
