Some shopkeepers shouted and some guards drew their sabers, but none of them were of any use. The bandits that Cao Bao had brought with him were all extraordinary. They were not something that ordinary guards could withstand.
In just a moment, everyone in the hall collapsed.
Cao Bao patrolled the area and came to the counter. He pulled out the head shopkeeper who was curled up into a ball.
The head shopkeeper was an old man who had never experienced such a thing before. He was scared half to death.
He quickly took a plate of silver and said,"This king, please calm down. This silver is for your travel expenses. Please be magnanimous and let this small shop go.”
If it was an ordinary pirate, he would have accepted it just to rob money.
But Cao Bao was not.
Cao Bao came to Tong Bao Bank for another purpose.
Cao Long flipped over the silver and snorted coldly. He asked,""Where is the secret vault?"
The shopkeeper did not dare to delay and pointed at the secret warehouse.
"Bring me there." Cao Bao shouted.
"Yes, yes, yes." The head shopkeeper shrunk his neck and led the way.
The two of them came to the back of the hall. This place was divided into two parts, one was the warehouse, and the other was the secret warehouse.
The treasury was where Tong Bao Bank stored their gold and silver. The level of the secret treasury was even higher. It usually stored precious items, such as old ginseng, lingzhi, and other high-value items.
Secret vault.
"What are you looking for, Your Majesty?" When the shopkeeper saw that Cao Bao did not take the gold and silver but went straight to the secret vault, he guessed that he was probably here for some treasure.
There were hundreds of cabinets in the secret warehouse.
Cao Bao felt a headache coming on as soon as he glanced at it, so he shouted,""Has anyone recently placed a…no, half a corpse here?”
"Corpses?" The shopkeeper subconsciously wanted to shake his head. The money house only stored valuable things. How could there be corpses?
But then, the head shopkeeper remembered that his boss, Zhang Dajing, seemed to have stored half a dried corpse in the secret vault a few days ago.
Thinking of this, the shopkeeper hurriedly said,""Yes, yes, yes! A few days ago, our boss stored half of a dried corpse. At that time, we all felt that it was unlucky and no one was willing to touch it.”
Hearing this news, Cao Bao laughed and urged,""Quick, take it out!"
The manager nodded repeatedly. He found the innermost cabinet, unlocked it with a special key, and took out the things inside.
Cao Bao didn't wait for the head shopkeeper and snatched the crimson package into his hand. He opened it and saw that it was half a dried corpse.
Half of the lower body that had been dried and waxed was Rama's body.
"Rama's remains!" Cao Bao's eyes lit up, and his face trembled. Even his naturally ferocious appearance was distorted by excitement.
After his excitement, Cao Bao came back to his senses and wrapped Rama's body again. He carried it on his back and strode out of the secret warehouse.
When they arrived at the lobby, Cao Bao walked to the door and instructed his subordinates,""Rama's body is already in our hands. There's no need to keep these people.”
After saying that, Cao Bao was about to leave.
Just as Cao Bao grabbed the door handle and was about to open the door, a gust of wind suddenly blew.
Cao Bao's hair stood on end as he hurriedly dodged.
Swoosh!
A short knife was stabbed into the door, several inches deep. If Cao Bao had dodged a little slower, he would have been pierced through.
"Tsk, I'm old, and my skills at throwing knives are no longer good.”
Cao Bao was still in shock when he heard an old voice coming from above his head. Then, an old man in a gorgeous costume floated down.
It was Lian Sheng.
"Who are you?" Cao Bao pulled out his sword and shouted.
Cai Xishi chuckled." Me? He's just an old man who can perform magic tricks."
"A cantrip?" Cao Bao looked at her attire and thought of the rumors in the martial world. He instantly reacted." You're the Blackstone Assassin, the Color Actor!”
"Hehehe, you have good eyesight." " Hehe." Cai Xishi laughed strangely. She raised her hands and revealed two short knives." As a reward, I will spare your life."”
Cao Bao swallowed his saliva. A man's fame was like a tree's shadow. He had already fallen into a disadvantage before they even fought. The so-called great thief was nothing compared to the Blackstone Assassin.
"Brothers, let's attack together and kill him!”Cao Bao called out to his subordinates to surround and kill Cai Xi Shi, but he kept retreating.
This group of people was quite loyal. Upon hearing Cao Bao's order, they directly rushed towards the colorful performer.
Faced with the siege, Cai Xishi was unflustered.
As he dodged a long sword, he waved his wide robe to block everyone's vision.
In this short gap, Cai Xishi had already swung her two blades several times.
"Ah! Ah!"
In the next moment, several of his subordinates clutched their throats and fell to the ground.
Until their deaths, they did not know how they had been stabbed.
When the others saw this scene, they were shocked and didn't dare to draw their swords. They all retreated.
"Cao Bao, where are you going? Leave Rama's body behind." As she spoke, she strolled towards Cao Bao.
She didn't even look at the people she met along the way and just casually slashed them.
As he walked up to Cao Bao, there were only three or four people left from the original dozen or so people. They were all scared out of their wits.
"Master Cai, don't go too far!”Even at such a critical moment, Cao Bao still held on tightly to Rama's body.
Cai Xi Shi laughed strangely and did not answer Cao Bao at all.
Seeing that the colorful performer was getting closer and closer, Cao Bao could not help but stab out with his sword.
However, Cao Bao immediately regretted his move because he saw a clear look of mockery in Cai Xi's eyes.
The actor tilted his head and dodged the sword. His wide robe swung and covered Cao Bao's head.
"Ah!" Cao Bao let out a shrill scream under his costume.
Cai Xi shook Cao Bao off. The latter's face was covered in blood. He covered his eyes with both hands and kept screaming. His eyes had been blinded.
"Hehe, I won't be polite with Rama's body. We'll meet again.”Cai Xi kept her promise and spared Cao Bao's life. She then picked up Rama's body and flung her robe, releasing a large amount of smoke.
When the smoke dispersed, there was no longer any sign of the colorful actress.
The remaining three or four people did not have time to escape and were all captured by the constables of Six Fan School who rushed in.
……
Blackstone Headquarters, Unity Bank.
After getting the lower half of Rama's body, Cai Xi Shi suppressed the excitement in her heart and returned to the Tong He Bank.
"Hahaha, I've been working for Black Rock for decades, and I've been riddled with injuries since I was old. Now that I have Rama's complete body, I can finally see the hope of recovery!”
As she thought about it, she came to Chu Xiao's residence.
"Faction Leader, it's me, Lian Sheng. I've already obtained the lower half of Rama's body!”Cai Xi knocked on the door and said.
"Come in."
After getting Chu Xiao's permission, Cai Xi pushed open the door and entered.
Chu Xiao sat cross-legged on the futon and looked at Cai Xi quietly.
Cai Xi walked forward and knelt on one knee. She raised Rama's body above her head and said,""This subordinate did not fail my mission and successfully seized Rama's body. Please take a look, Sect Master!”
Chu Xiao looked at the respectful Cai Xi Master and knew that this was because of the system reward. The Cai Xi Master was now loyal to him.
Otherwise, even if he was poisoned, he would not be so respectful.
Chu Xiao didn't take Luo Ma's body as it didn't mean much to him. He said directly,""I promised earlier that I would give you the other half of Rama's body to study.
Now that you have it, you should make good use of it and try to heal your old injuries as soon as possible.”
"Thank you, Faction Leader!" Cai Xi shouted sincerely. She was extremely touched. She felt that even if she and Chu Xiao were in the same position, they would never be so generous.
Chu Xiao nodded slightly." You may leave."”
"Yes, sir!"
Cai Xishi bowed and slowly retreated.
"Ding!"
As soon as the door was closed, Chu Xiao heard the mechanical sound of the system in his mind.
"Congratulations to the host for completing the system's random mission: Get half of Rama's body."
" Reward for completing the mission: Poison Heart Grass.”
As the sound of the system notification faded, a ball of faint light appeared in front of Chu Xiao. After the light dissipated, a pitch-black grass quietly lay on the floor.
It was the Poison Heart Grass.
Chu Xiao picked up the Poison Heart Grass and sniffed it. He smelled a faint fragrance, and at the same time, the skin that was in contact with the Poison Heart Grass also felt slightly hot.
This was entirely because Chu Xiao had cultivated the Five Poisons Divine Technique, which gave him an extremely strong resistance against poisonous creatures.
If it was someone else, they would have smelled the stench of decay and felt a sharp pain instead of heat.
Of course, ordinary people would die very quickly before they could feel this. Experts could only resist for a moment with their deep internal strength. They would die without an antidote.
"Poisonous items are great supplements to me.”
The corner of Chu Xiao's mouth curled up. He then put away the Poison Heart Grass and walked towards the secret chamber.
The secret room was originally where the Cakravarti King stored his gold and martial arts manuals. Now, it had been transformed by Chu Xiao into a training room and a closed-door training room.
They arrived at the secret chamber.
Chu Xiao took out a small bronze cauldron from the corner and opened the lid. Inside were five ferocious and terrifying poisonous insects.
The poisonous insects were not ordinary species. They were rare mutants that Chu Xiao had collected using black stones during this period of time.
Each of these poisonous insects was ferocious by nature. As soon as they saw Chu Xiao, they immediately bared their fangs and prepared to devour him.
However, after Chu Xiao put the Poison Heart Grass into the cauldron, these poisonous insects instantly changed their target and pounced on the Poison Heart Grass, biting it crazily.
Poison Heart Grass was a great tonic for those who cultivated poison techniques, but it could not be eaten directly. Instead, it had to be fed to poisonous insects first before absorbing their poison.
Only after this round of conversion could he truly absorb it.
Very quickly, the Poison Heart Grass was eaten clean.
The five poisonous insects had finished eating and absorbed the poison of the Poison Heart Grass. They all changed. They became more ferocious and their bodies turned black.
"It's almost done."
Chu Xiao rolled up his sleeves and reached his hands into the small cauldron.
The five poisonous insects had just eaten a vegetarian meal. When they saw the fresh meat in front of them, how could they resist it? They opened their fangs and bit it.
This bite was exactly what Chu Xiao wanted.
Chu Xiao circulated the Five Poisons Divine Technique, and his internal strength formed a vortex that quickly absorbed the poison in the poisonous insects 'bodies.
In an instant, the five poisonous insects did not even have the chance to struggle before they were sucked dry of their venom and died.
A black gas visible to the naked eye lingered on Chu Xiao's face, rising with his breathing.
This was extremely pure poison gas. A little bit of it could kill hundreds of thousands of people.
Chu Xiao silently operated the Five Poisons Divine Technique and quickly digested the venom in his body.
After a long time.
Chu Xiao opened his eyes and sensed his own condition. He nodded slightly.
After this cultivation, he had absorbed the poison of the Poison Heart Grass and the five poisonous insects. His Five Poison Divine Technique had improved a lot, and his poisonous inner force had become even more terrifying.
