Xiao Hui smiled." This King Zhennan is so proud. He is a man of his word. Even if his legitimate son is poisoned, he will not go against his words and deeds because he is King Zhennan. As for the Saint Alchemist, if he insists on taking action, we can't do anything about it."”
Li Hao's eyes lit up as he slowly smiled and said,""You seem to know King Zhennan very well."
Xiao Hui suddenly raised her head and looked at the blue sky. She slowly said,"It's just that you know too little.”
Li Hao smiled and sat on the crisp grassland. He stared blankly at the sky and said leisurely,"Let's leave it to fate. In fact, sometimes I envy those unarmed ordinary people who live a leisurely and comfortable life.”
When Xiao Hui heard this, her beautiful eyes curiously sized up Li Hao and smiled sweetly.""It's rare for our hero Li to have such thoughts.”
"Living on the edge of a knife, one will naturally miss comfort. Ability and responsibility are equal, and many things are beyond one's control in the martial world.”
"Was it against your will?" A gentle breeze blew past her long black hair. Her clear eyes reflected the blue sky as she murmured softly.
At this moment, Li Hao suddenly sat up. He looked around and said solemnly,""I heard footsteps. Someone is coming. I wonder if it's this alchemist saint.”
Xiao Hui was stunned when she heard that. She stood up and patted her clothes."When he comes over later, you must not speak.”
Li Hao nodded and looked into the distance.
As expected, the footsteps were getting closer and closer. The trees rustled and a black shadow appeared in the wind. The person was dressed in a black robe. His face was covered by a black veil. He was thin, not tall, and had delicate eyebrows. His eyes were as cold and bright as snow. He carried a bamboo basket filled with herbs and glanced sideways. Li Hao and the other man ignored him and walked towards the small wooden house with light steps.
Judging from this person's clothing and behavior, it was most likely this alchemist saint. Li Hao slowly said,"Be careful, don't offend him. If you make a move, I'm afraid we'll lose our lives here.”
Xiao Hui nodded and walked towards the man in black.
Li Hao saw that they were facing each other and that they were getting closer and closer. He clenched his fists tightly and stared at them solemnly. There was a black mole on the left eyebrow of this black-clothed person. If one did not look carefully, it would be very difficult to notice it. At this moment, the black-clothed person frowned and slowly said," Leave quickly. I won't save him, and I don't want to kill him easily, but if…"
The black-clothed man's voice was extremely cold, mixed with traces of killing intent. It was a kind of indifference to life. People like Li Hao who had lived on the edge of a knife for a long time were extremely sensitive.
It seemed that things weren't going so smoothly, but at this moment, he didn't want anything to happen to Xiao Hui because of him. Thinking of this, he got up and walked quickly.
"Please save my friend." Xiao Hui stomped her feet and pleaded.
"Hmph!" The black-clothed man snorted coldly. He glanced at Li Hao, then turned a blind eye to him and walked towards the small wooden house without looking back.
The man in black's cold stare made Li Hao extremely uncomfortable. It was a pair of cold, hateful, and murderous eyes.
Li Hao looked at the back of the black-clothed man and felt sad. Could it be that he had accidentally offended this person? Impossible!
Li Hao had been lost in thought for a long time, but he still had no impression of her. At this moment, Xiao Hui suddenly spoke in a deep voice,"I'll go in and look for him. Wait for me here.”
" It's too dangerous for you to go alone. Let's go together," Li Hao said with a frown.
"Don't you feel that he seems to have an inexplicable hostility towards you?" Xiao Hui shook her head. It's safer for me to be alone."
Li Hao was slightly stunned, then he sighed softly,""Then, be careful. If anything happens to you, I'll feel guilty for the rest of my life.”
"Pffft" Xiao Hui smiled like a flower, and her sweet dimples appeared on her cheeks."Young hero Li, don't worry, I will be careful.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Hui walked behind the man in black.
The cold wind whistled, and the small wooden house appeared a little lonely under the cold wind.
" Creak!" Xiao Hui pulled open the wooden door, then closed the door bolt and walked over with light steps. He saw the man in black sitting on a rocking chair and placing a bamboo basket at the side. His cold eyes stared at Xiao Hui with a cold glint.
Strangely enough, the sun was shining brightly outside the house, and the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant. However, it was gloomy inside the house. The black light blocked the sunlight, leaving only the cold wind.
There was nothing special about the wooden house. There were some tables, chairs, beds, and some unknown herbs neatly placed around it.
Xiao Hui did not seem to be in a hurry. She slowly turned her head and smiled."I didn't expect that your wooden house didn't even have a mirror.”
The man in black frowned and said coldly,""Hmph, if I had attacked just now, you would have died at least a hundred times.”
Xiao Hui's eyebrows relaxed. She smiled." If Poison Saint wants to kill someone, I'm just a piece of grass. I naturally can't resist."”
The man in black stared at Xiao Hui for a long time, then slowly said,""Who exactly are you?"
Xiao Hui sat down on the wooden chair opposite the black robe and slowly said,""Me? I'm Xiao Hui from Taoyuan Village."
Hearing this, the man in black seemed to be a little dissatisfied. He said with an unfriendly expression,"Hmph, you know that's not what I'm asking. Forget it. No matter who you are, you should leave this place quickly. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless.”After saying that, her long-sleeved arm moved gently.
At this moment, Xiao Hui also stopped smiling. Her beautiful fingers tapped the armrest of the wooden chair in an orderly manner. Then, she said with a pleasant expression,"You know why I'm here. Don't worry, I mean no harm.”
"Hmph, leave quickly. I can't save him. I'm the Poison Saint. I only know how to kill, not save.”The man in black snorted coldly.
"Poison Saint, Medicine Saint, what's the difference? Medicine is also something to save people, and it's also something to kill people. Since the people of Jianghu gave you the title of Saint, isn't it just a false reputation?”
"Hahaha, sharp-toothed little girl, I have no interest in discussing this with you. It seems that you are determined not to leave.”The man in black narrowed his eyes.
"I know you won't save him just by saying this. I'll show you something, and I believe you'll save him.”Xiao Hui smiled and took it out from her clothes.
The black-clothed man stared at the beautiful girl with interest. Then, when he saw the crystal clear palm-sized jade, his eyes were filled with shock. After a long time, he slowly recovered and sighed softly,"Forget it. I knew you would come to find me sooner or later. I can save him, but you have to promise me one condition.”
Xiao Hui kept the jade and slowly said,""You should know that you have no right to negotiate with me.”
" I know, but this is also a deal. I believe you'll be interested..." The man in black said word by word.
