out of time

Chapter 76 Kill the Fish!
Night Breeze, like a blood-stained sickle blade, smelled fishy and wet, was carried by the messenger of death, and wandered around every corner of the city.

In the darkness, the figure of the messenger of death moved forward recklessly. In the horn of murderous intent, it seemed to merge with all the shadows in the city, continuously gathering, and constantly dispersing, as if fearless, and it was enough to make people want to Struggling for all life to despair.

Until... In this pervasive and moving forward, in a dark and distant corner, it met a person.

It was a figure in a gray robe. In the dark night, his back seemed impenetrable with knives and needles, and the cold air emitted seemed to block the starlight in the sky.

It's suffocating.

At this moment, it was like a rushing river meeting the sea, like a pack of greedy jackals meeting a wolf king.

Its footsteps stopped, its invisible body was quiet in all directions, and it seemed to be watching in the silence, until the gray figure slowly turned its head, and the calmness like a black pool appeared in the cold eyes.

It laughed.

As if he had found faith, as if he had found a fellowship, it carried the scythe of death and cheered around the gray figure, lifting his long hair and blowing his robe.

"The wind is a bit strong tonight." Xu Qing whispered softly, turned his head, and continued to stare at the house in the distance in the darkness.

The house in his eyes was like a coffin, and it was heavy at night. It was the residence of the mermaid boy that he had found during this period of time.

The other party is different from the disciples of the Seventh Peak, and it seems that he is not qualified to own a Dharma boat, so he can only choose to live on the shore with his followers.

Xu Qing watched calmly, neither in a hurry nor impatiently. In this dark night, his even and slight breathing sounded like ice water, long and far-reaching.

He is waiting.

The sign's breath told Xu Qing exactly that the person he was waiting for was right here.

And judging from the last time the other party went out alone, it should be time for this fish to go out these few days, especially today... the other party is in a bad mood.

Therefore, Xu Qing felt that there was a high probability that he could wait until tonight.

Time passed, and an hour later, when the moon in the sky was once again covered by dark clouds, a gust of night wind blew in, and the sound of wind resistance came from the house that had been buried in darkness.

This voice made the coffin-like house even more lonely, like a hoarse whisper before death, echoing in the quiet night sky.

A figure appeared from the high wall of the house.

The gray Taoist robe can't hide the fishy smell coming out of his body, and the green eyes like jewels can't change his sinister nature.

In the wind, the dancing of his voluminous robe turned into a silhouette like a majestic momentum, but the thin layer was more like peeled off human skin.

He is the mermaid boy.

Today, he was in an extremely bad mood, and what happened during the day made him feel that he had been greatly humiliated.

"So what about the eldest princess of the Seventh Peak? One day, sooner or later, I will cripple you and use your body to feed ghosts and maggots!" The mermaid boy gritted his teeth, feeling unhappy. I have to vent myself.

As for the way of venting, he has arranged for his two sisters, it is not a woman, but a child.

This is a hobby that he cannot let too many people know about. He likes to torture and kill children of foreign races in exchange for his own joy.

At this moment, the body swayed and walked into the night.

As he moved forward, his figure slowly blurred and finally disappeared. Whether it was vision or perception, he would lose the lock at this moment, as if he did not exist at this moment.

But the mark of the smell will not disappear.

Xu Qing raised her head and watched the other person's figure disappear, her expression was calm, she walked silently, walking into the night likewise.

The wind is getting stronger, like the confrontation between the blade and the air, constantly reverberating in this quiet night.

Half an hour later, in the corner of an alley, the nothingness distorted at this moment, and the figure of the mermaid boy re-emerged, and the moment the figure appeared, he felt the crisis, and his body suddenly retreated.

But it was still too late, a thick water curtain appeared behind him in an instant, and appeared around him, directly covering this alley, completely sealing the alley, a deep roar came from the water curtain in front of him.

A huge whale formed by spells protrudes from the water curtain and takes shape rapidly.

Exuding coldness and murderous intent, he opened his mouth wide towards the mermaid boy, exposing his sharp teeth, and suddenly swallowed it with an incomparably ferocious aura.

The mermaid boy's eyes were sharp.

"It's kind of interesting. It just happens that I'm in a bad mood today, so I'll play with you."

During the speech, he raised his hands and was about to make a tactic, but at this moment, the shadows that merged with the darkness instantly scattered into strips like ropes, coming rapidly from all directions, and directly entangled around the arms of the mermaid boy. Covering the palm of the hand, making it impossible to complete the movement of the seal.

Even while covering his palm, the shadow spread rapidly towards his neck.

And whether it was his hands or the skin touched by the shadow at this moment, there was a piercing pain at this moment, as if it was being corroded at a rapid speed. This scene was too sudden, and the mermaid boy's complexion changed for the first time.

The intense life-and-death crisis and the sharp pain made him short of breath. While struggling, the whale transformed from the water curtain in front of him had already arrived in front of him and swallowed it directly with astonishing momentum.

But the moment the whale swallowed, the mermaid boy let out a roar, and a blue light burst out from his body. The light beam was like sharp thorns, and while trying to drive away the shadow on his body, it shot in all directions.

It directly came into contact with the approaching whale. The whale crashed, but it didn't disperse.

The mermaid boy was shocked, his body backed up, and blood spurted out. Taking advantage of the time when the blue light slowed down the strange shadow, he showed a ferocious expression, and was just about to open the storage bag.

But at this moment, the shadow that permeated his body erupted again, entangled his hands again, stopped his movement, and continued to spread rapidly towards the whole body.

This scene completely shocked the young mermaid, and at this moment, a black cold light roared from the darkness and went straight to the center of his eyebrows.

After the cold light, he saw a figure... a gray figure shooting out from the water curtain in front!
The speed is as fast as a dark lightning.

The same boy, with fluttering black hair, expressionless face, only the light in his eyes, revealing an incomparably cold calmness.

Surrounded by wind, it seemed to have turned into a sickle, as if beside him, there was a messenger of death, who was raising his black cloak with a smirk, and came quickly following the figure.

"It's you!!" The mermaid boy recognized Xu Qing, and he opened his mouth suddenly in a life-and-death crisis, uttering a silver light between his words.

This silver glow is good at facing the wind, and it turned into a huge flywheel in an instant, roaring towards the black iron pick in front, the two sides touched instantly, and there was a loud sound of weapons colliding.

Because of the great force contained in it, both the flywheel and the black iron pick were deflected in this collision, and when they blasted to the side, they couldn't stop the eyes of the mermaid boy and Xu Qing from meeting again.

The moment the two eyes met, Xu Qing approached directly. At the same time, the gills on the mermaid boy's face suddenly swelled and turned into sharp thorns growing on his face, making his expression ferocious. He opened his mouth Quickly spit out a blue bead.

"Die to me!" the mermaid boy growled, and the blue bead burst out with even more astonishing beams of light, covering Xu Qing who was approaching.

He was very confident that with his natal supernatural powers, unless he was a foundation-establishing monk, few people would be spared even if he condensed his qi to achieve perfection, so a grin appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he was about to continue to suppress the strange shadow on his body.

But in the next moment, his complexion completely changed following the roar in the blue beam in front of him, and he even showed shock.

In front of it, covered by the blue light beam, a huge figure stood upright against the light from within.

That figure was completely black, with a single horn on its head, ferocious like a ghost, and rows of sharp thorns all over its body, like the head of all ghosts.

At this moment, he was facing the blue light, roaring silently, raised his big hand to cover the light, and grabbed it.

It was... Kuiying!
Under the huge black shadow, was Xu Qing who was expressionless and rushed towards the mermaid boy.

There were many wounds all over his body caused by the laser beam, but they all healed quickly visible to the naked eye, and the murderous intent in his eyes exploded completely at this moment.

No matter whether it was the mermaid boy's previous exploits or the attack in the store, Xu Qing never went all out, his shadow never moved, Kui Ying never melted, and his resilience never showed.

His sharpness is only revealed at the moment of killing.

"Vigorous blood turns into a shadow! And your cultivation! Impossible, your resilience, this..." The mermaid boy showed unprecedented shock, the crisis of life and death turned into panic in his eyes, and his words were somewhat incoherent.

He wanted to open the storage bag, and wanted the jade slip to send a voice call for help, but at this moment, the shadow seemed to be alive, able to detect his thoughts, and wrapped his hands tightly so that he could not lift up or take any items, and Xu Qing didn't waste any time, he was already approaching, a cold light shone in his right hand, and a dagger appeared.

Looking at the dagger, the mermaid boy roared frantically. He didn't care about the shadow wrapped around his neck at the moment, and he didn't have time to care that the covered part was being strongly corroded. At a critical moment, his body shook violently.

The legs were lifted up quickly, blurred for an instant, and turned into a black fishtail, blasting towards the approaching Xu Qing with all his strength, and even at this moment, his blood talent also fully exploded, and an illusory mermaid figure formed outside his body , fused with its tail to form a powerful blow.

Xu Qing's expression didn't change at all, and his speed didn't slow down. When he approached in an instant, he raised his left hand and punched out.

The skin was torn apart, and the flesh and blood collapsed.

The huge fish tail was directly torn apart, and the phantom mermaid was also punched by Kui Ying, collapsing and bursting open.

The ground around him trembled violently, and a miserable scream came from the mouth of the mermaid boy, but the surrounding water curtain was too thick, and his voice was tightly sealed in the alley.

"Curse!!" Amidst the screams, the mermaid boy who lost his lower body, his eyes were red, and the flesh and blood of his fish tail that collapsed in the roar seemed to be alive, burning one after another, and rushed from all directions to where Xu Qing was. Convergence, extremely fast, enveloped in an instant.

Although the gathering speed was fast, it was not as fast as Xu Qing. Almost at the moment when he was enveloped in flesh and blood, due to the extreme speed, his body left an afterimage covered by the curse of mermaid flesh and blood.

As for his real body, he appeared behind the mermaid boy at this moment, and before the mermaid boy's flesh and blood chased after him, a cold dagger landed on his neck while the mermaid boy was shocked.

"Xu Qing, I..."

The mermaid boy's body trembled, his voice was sharp and hasty, but he had no chance to continue speaking. After saying three words, with the cold touch on the dagger...

Xu Qing cut it hard, he is not in the habit of listening to last words.

The familiar cutting sound echoed.

Blood erupted in an instant, and the twitching of the mermaid boy's body became extremely intense at this moment, like a fish whose neck had been chopped off half of the cutting board.

His eyes were wide open, and he wanted to turn around, but he couldn't do it. After a few breaths like a leak, before his body fell down and his consciousness was about to disappear, he finally saw Xu Qing's face above.

"The clothes are stained by you." Xu Qing said softly, this was the only sentence he uttered from the beginning to the end.

"you……"

The blood on the neck of the mermaid boy was still overflowing, and while he was trembling, he slowly lost his breath. In his eyes that were still open, there was still a nostalgia for the world, and there was also a remnant of disbelief, as if no matter what he did, he never thought of it. My own self will die here.

Died of anger.

With a calm expression, Xu Qing took down the speed-blessing talisman on his leg, picked up the storage bag that the mermaid boy could not open, turned around and walked out of the alley, the shadow left on the mermaid boy's body quickly retreated, and returned to Xu Qing feet.

When he reached the entrance of the alley, Xu Qing didn't stop, and he didn't turn his head to look. He just raised his right hand and squeezed it back.

Immediately covering the alley, the water curtain that sealed the place trembled violently and began to move.

From big to small, from outside to inside, with the mermaid corpse as the center, it was compressed instantly at an astonishing speed, and finally with a bang, the water curtains from all around gathered all the pressure on the mermaid boy's corpse.

In this sound, the murloc's corpse, together with the minced meat in the alley, completely collapsed, without a single trace of remnant, both body and spirit disappeared.

Xu Qing walked away.

The water curtain slowly sprinkled, turned into water droplets, and fell in this quiet alley, washing away everything.

Make the ground clean, make all the blood go away, and let the morning sun that slowly rises in the distance fall into this place smoothly, refracting the puddles on the ground, and emitting dazzling light.

From dark to dawn, it is just a moment for the sky, and it is the same for people.

Like life and death.
