Chapter 43 - 43 The Righteous Senior Sister
43 The Righteous Senior Sister
Cen Qingci’s voice was crisp and sweet, but when it entered Xiao Shi’s ears, it made his heart tremble slightly.
At this moment, Xiao Shi was not wearing the clothes of a night patroller. It was just an ordinary person’s outfit. However, Cen Qingci actually recognized him as a night patroller at a glance, which surprised Xiao Shi.
“Senior Sister, you know me?”
Cen Qingci smiled. “I’ve seen you in the city a few times. Your last mission was to patrol Golden Cloud City, right?”
Xiao Shi nodded. He did not expect the other party to notice him.
Speaking of which, he did appear around Cen Qingci from time to time during that period. He thought that a genius like Cen Qingci would not care about a small fry like him. Even if she noticed him, she would not remember him. He did not expect the other party to recognize him at a glance.
This was a little different from the other night patrollers of Team A. Almost all the night patrollers in Team A Xiao Shi had seen were very arrogant. They had always looked down on the night patrollers of Team D and would usually ignore them.
Cen Qingci was the most eye-catching and dazzling genius in Team A. But she was different from these night patrollers. She did not have that insufferable arrogance. She looked at every night patroller with a normal gaze. She did not have the mentality and attitude of someone superior. She had some impression of the night patrollers she usually saw in the city. Even if she could not name him, she knew that the other party was a night patroller.
This also changed Xiao Shi’s impression of her.
“Senior Sister, your mission is also here?”
Now, be it Team D or Team A, they had all begun the next round of missions. If the other party appeared here at this time, there was a high chance that she was here to carry out a mission.
However, Xiao Shi did not expect their mission to be in the same place.
“Yes!” Cen Qingci nodded and didn’t hide anything. “I’m here to kill the leader of the Silver Kirin Gang, Zhuo Fu. This person secretly killed many night patrollers and thinks that we don’t know. Hmph, he’s underestimating our Night Patrol Division’s intelligence ability.”
“The leader of the Silver Kirin Gang, Zhuo Fu?”
Xiao Shi was stunned. According to the information he obtained, he clearly knew that this Zhuo Fu was an expert at the ninth level of the Martial Entry-Level. He did not expect Cen Qingci, who was only at the seventh stage of the Martial Entry-Level, to actually dare to kill a ninth stage Martial Entry-Level.
Were all Team A’s missions so exciting?!
“Senior Sister, you’re really amazing!” Xiao Shi said with admiration.
“Actually, with my strength, I can’t kill a ninth-stage Martial Entry-Level powerhouse. I need to prepare some powerful methods. Oh right, what mission are you on?” Cen Qingci asked curiously.
Xiao Shi immediately told the other party his mission.
“I see.” Cen Qingci pondered for a moment. “I need to leave for a while to prepare a powerful killing weapon that can help me kill Zhuo Fu. It will probably take about three hours. Why don’t you wait for me, Junior Brother? After I kill Zhuo Fu, I’ll help you find that wanted criminal. At that time, I’ll help you cripple him first and you can kill him.
“It’s still very dangerous here. Perhaps the wanted criminal on your mission has accomplices in this town. It’s always risky for you to act alone. Since we’ve encountered each other, I have no reason to sit back and do nothing. Let me help you.”
This genius Senior Sister was warm-hearted and said straightforwardly.
Xiao Shi was a little surprised. Unexpectedly, not only did this genius of Team A not have the arrogance of a genius, but she was also quite righteous.
“Thank you, Senior Sister!” Xiao Shi immediately thanked her.
“It’s a small matter.” Cen Qingci waved her hand disapprovingly and said to Xiao Shi solemnly. “Junior Brother, it’s best if you wait for me outside. It’s foul here. Not a single good person is here. I’m worried that someone will target you and be disadvantageous to you. It’s safer to wait for me outside.”
Xiao Shi nodded. He was like an obedient little brother next door. He followed Cen Qingci out of the town.
“Junior Brother, be careful. Wait for me here.” Cen Qingci reminded Xiao Shi a few more times before leaving.
Xiao Shi watched as the other party disappeared from his sight. He did not expect her to have such a personality. This was completely different from what he had imagined. However, on second thought, it made sense.
As a genius who had gone too smoothly and lacked the beatings of the chaotic times, her world was still too simple and innocent. However, Xiao Shi thought that since the other party was already so righteous, it would not be right for him to be too petty.
“She took the initiative to help me cripple the target and let me finish him off. If I don’t help her kill Zhuo Fu, will I still be human?”
Xiao Shi felt that he was a grateful person.
It was definitely not because he had discovered a suitable target to kill. He was not coveting the high-quality items dropped by the ninth-stage Martial Entry-Level. Nor did he want to test his current strength through a ninth-stage Martial Entry-Level martial artist.
“I just want to help my bait!” Xiao Shi thought to himself. “No! What bait? That’s Senior Sister!”
Xiao Shi quickly corrected himself.
…
The sky was getting darker.
White Eyes Town in the night was even uglier and darker. Shouts, curses, hawkers, and some moans intertwined and echoed in the sky of the entire town.
Located in the center of White Eyes Town sat a tall building.
In fact, it was only three stories high. However, in the entire dilapidated town, this was already the tallest building.
On the highest floor of the building, the leader of the Silver Kirin Gang, Zhuo Fu, was standing in front of the window and looking down at the town below. He was tall and burly. His upper body was bare, and his body was covered in various scars.
He enjoyed the feeling of looking down from a high place. It was as if he controlled everything. At least in this town, he was like a local tyrant.
Bang!
Suddenly, the door of the room was kicked open. A person wearing a black bamboo hat and black clothes walked in from outside.
“Hmm?”
Zhuo Fu’s gaze turned cold. The other party’s outfit had already revealed his identity.
A Night Patroller!
“I was still discovered.”
Zhuo Fu was not too surprised by this.
From the moment he killed the night patrollers behind their backs and exchanged their corpses for the bounty from the Senluo Organization, he had expected that he would be discovered by the night patrollers sooner or later.
However, he did not expect it would be so fast!
Xiao Shi dragged his long saber with one hand, leaving a long mark on the ground. His eyes were filled with killing intent as he stared at Zhuo Fu. Compared to the wanted criminal he was looking for, it was much easier to find the leader of the Silver Kirin Gang.
After the two sides met, they did not say a word. An invisible killing intent was already colliding in the air. Their blood and qi were released from their bodies almost at the same time and surrounded their bodies.
BOOM!
Xiao Shi stepped on the ground.
Under the use of his movement technique, Arc Flash, his entire body seemed to have transformed into a blood-colored lightning. Dragging his long saber, he charged over at an astonishing speed.
Zhuo Fu immediately picked up the black broadsword beside him and charged over.
It was as if two rapidly flickering lightning bolts had collided.
Clang!
The collision of the long saber and broadsword created a series of dazzling sparks.
