Instead of Checking In Regularly: I Hide And Cultivate In The Monster-quelling Tower And Become Invi

Chapter 27: Kneel

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zhou Xuan opened his eyes. His eyes were clear and his consciousness was clear. He did not look injured at all.

When the man in black saw Zhou Xuan suddenly open his eyes, he was clearly shocked.

This didn’t make sense.

He was quite confident in the strength of that blow. Zhou Xuan shouldn’t have woken up so quickly.

After all, he was a Gold Three-Star while Zhou Xuan was only a Silver Four-Star.

How would he know that Zhou Xuan’s real realm was at the Gold One-Star realm and that the Silver Four-Star realm was just a disguise?

Moreover, Zhou Xuan was not injured at all. He was just pretending to be injured.

He just wanted to see what the man in black wanted to do.

At this moment, he finally saw the face of the man in black. Wasn’t this the guy named Qi Hai on the bounty?

He really did not expect the other party to take the initiative to come knocking on his door.

The bounty clearly stated that the other party was worth five thousand yuan.

He was worried that he was tight on money. Now that the money was here, he naturally had to accept it.

“Why? Are you surprised to see me awake?” Zhou Xuan slowly got up, looking calm and composed.

Even though he was facing a Gold Three-Star evil man, he was still calm and did not show any fear.

“I’m surprised, of course I’m surprised.” The muscles on Qi Hai’s face trembled with excitement. “It’s even better that you’re awake. I’ve never met a man as handsome as you. Just resist with all your might. The more you resist, the more excited I become.”

Zhou Xuan was calm and composed. A sinister smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. “Do you think I’m going to resist?”

“Mm?” Qi Hai seemed to have discovered something. “That’s right. Shouldn’t you be afraid?”

He revealed a cruel smile and said, “You’re still pretending to be calm at a time like this. Do you think you can cause any big waves with your Silver-Four-Star cultivation? When I’m done playing, I’ll kill the two of you to show my allegiance and join the Ghost Group. What law enforcement bureau? Scram.”

It turned out that he had always been wanted by the Law Enforcement Bureau and had no way out.

Hence, he planned to join Ghost Group and find a powerful backer.

He happened to hear that the Ghost Group was short of assassins in the Demon Subduing City, so he came.

He took a step forward and said fiercely, “Kneel down.”

As he spoke, he circulated the power of his Astral Soul and crushed it towards Zhou Xuan.

When Zhou Xuan saw this, he replied without even blinking, “You’re the one who needs to kneel.”

As he spoke, he circulated his mental power and retaliated forcefully.

His mental strength was comparable to a Gold High Star Demon Hunter. It was not something a Gold Three-Star evil man could fight against.

The powerful mental power dispersed Qi Hai’s Astral Soul power and struck his mind.

Qi Hai let out a blood-curdling scream as he clutched his head and fell to the ground.

He curled up with a ferocious expression and was in extreme pain.

Zhou Xuan looked at him calmly and said, “Did I tell you to lie down? I told you to kneel.”

In the next moment, Qi Hai knelt down uncontrollably.

If not for Zhou Xuan’s strength, he would have been the victim tonight. Tomorrow, he would be lying dead in the grass hut, incomparably miserable.

Fortunately, he had a trump card!

Qi Hai had committed many evil deeds, killing nearly ten people in a month.

The hateful thing was that he still wanted to continue doing evil after escaping to the Demon Subduing City.

Now, Zhou Xuan was even crueler than him, letting him know that there was always someone better than him.

In the darkness of the night, Qi Hai’s mournful cry rang out from the straw hut. It sounded like the cry of a ghost, and it was rather terrifying.

As he called out, his voice became weaker and weaker.

“Kill yourself.”

As soon as Zhou Xuan finished speaking, Qi Hai picked up the knife and cut off his head.

Zhou Xuan watched all of this quietly before wrapping Qi Hai’s head up.

“It’s much more convenient to take a head to receive the reward.”

He couldn’t even be bothered to bring Qi Hai’s corpse. How heavy was it?

“No, I don’t want to expose my identity.” He shook his head and used the Divine Dragon Thousand Transformations to transform into a 1.8-meter-tall young man.

“In that case, I’ll be called Chu Xunhuan.” He was quite thoughtful. He changed his appearance and name.

Then, he planned to wake up the young man who had fallen into the grass.

That young man had delicate features. If it wasn’t for Zhou Xuan tonight, he would definitely have been killed.

However, before Zhou Xuan could take action, he realized that someone had suddenly come from outside.

Based on his aura alone, that person was slightly stronger than Qi Hai. He was a Gold Four-Star expert.

“Someone’s here to deliver their head again?” His gaze instantly became sharp.

With a bang, the person kicked open the door and rushed in with his sword.

The person who came was also a man in black. The murderous aura on his body was very strong. It was obvious that he had killed many people.

He saw Zhou Xuan, the only one standing in the room, the handsome young man lying in the grass, and Qi Hai’s corpse.

“Did you kill Qi Hai?” he questioned Zhou Xuan with a murderous aura.

Of course, the Zhou Xuan he saw now was another person who had changed his appearance.

He was originally a member of the Ghost Group and was in charge of recruiting assassins for the group in Demon Subduing City.

He had already contacted Qi Hai to meet him here tonight to discuss the matter of Qi Hai joining Ghost Group.

He was still a distance away when he suddenly heard Qi Hai’s miserable scream.

At that time, his heart skipped a beat and he felt that the situation was not good.

Hence, he sped up and rushed over.

Unexpectedly, he only saw Qi Hai’s corpse in the end.

He was very direct and said coldly, “Qi Hai is someone that Ghost Group has taken a fancy to. Since you have killed him, you have to pay with your life.”

Zhou Xuan’s eyes narrowed.

He clearly remembered that the person who assassinated Song Fan that night was an assassin from Ghost Group.

Unexpectedly, he encountered an even stronger killer here.

To be honest, he did not want to provoke a terrifying organization like Ghost Group. However, the other party forced him and did not intend to let him off.

Hence, he did not say anything and launched a mental power attack before the other party attacked first.

The powerful mental power crushed over and caught the other party off guard.

By the time the other party reacted, it was already too late.

He let out a blood-curdling scream, threw away the sword in his hand, and fell to the ground with his head in his hands.

“Ouch, ouch, ouch!” He had a splitting headache and let out a miserable scream.

He was too miserable. He did not even have the chance to attack before he was crushed by Zhou Xuan’s powerful mental power.

“Crack,” Zhou Xuan said indifferently.

Then, the killer’s head really split open, and white liquid seeped out.

He died with his eyes wide open.

“Don’t ruin your face. I was planning to exchange it for money.” As Zhou Xuan spoke, he took out his sword and cut off the assassin’s head.

He wasn’t sure if this assassin had a bounty on him, but he had to go to the Law Enforcement Bureau to take a look.

He loaded their heads, then kicked the unconscious teenager. “Wake up. Go home and sleep.”

The young man woke up and was terrified. It took him a while to realize what was going on.

“Thank you for saving my life, hero.” After saying that, he ran away without a care.

He didn’t go anywhere else, but went straight to the Law Enforcement Bureau.

“Uncle Law Enforcer, there’s an evil man who wanted to sleep with me. I want to report him.”
