Chapter 1755 Reception and Interception

"Go back, go back, and report this matter to the Lord of the Palace."

Shi Gui's face was extremely pale, and he was breathing heavily, making a sound like a broken bellows.

The power of the high-compression magic light bullet was too great. Even if Shi Gui escaped by chance, he would still be seriously injured and his combat effectiveness would be greatly reduced.

Fortunately, magic light bullets are designed to destroy, not corrode.

Therefore, Shi Gui can also use Dou Qi to temporarily seal the wound and prevent the continued loss of blood.

As for healing…

It is still impossible for such a wound that penetrates from front to back to be completely healed in a short time. It is a good thing to be able to protect the wound from expanding.

"Hey, isn't this Shi Gui? How did it become like this?"

"Is there any powerful person still sitting in Feiyan City?"

Just when Shi Gui's consciousness was a little blurry, a sarcastic voice suddenly sounded.

Immediately afterwards, a man with a somewhat feminine face suddenly appeared in front of Shi Gui.

Wearing a black robe, this man looked a bit fierce.

"Xu Hengxiang?! Why are you here?"

Shi Gui looked shocked when he saw the person coming, and he blurted out questions.

This man with a soft face, named Xu Hengxiang, is quite famous in the Casting Hall.

At the intermediate level of hero level, one can be ranked at the forefront in the Casting Hall based on strength alone.

It's just that this person never accepts missions and acts very secretively, but when he takes action, he is thunderous, and the ones he kills are all powerful enemies.

There are at least a dozen heroic-level strongmen who died in his hands.

It can be said that many people in the Casting Hall are afraid of this guy.

Be wary of his strength and the ferocity of his attacks.

"I came here naturally to meet you. I wonder if you can get the jade plate?"

Xu Hengxiang narrowed his eyes slightly and asked aloud.

"I see."

After hearing Xu Hengxiang's explanation, Shi Gui breathed a sigh of relief.

Being able to have a strong person who is stronger than yourself to support you will naturally make you feel more at ease.

Just being asked about the cast jade plate made Shi Gui blush a little.

There is no other reason.

Not only did Shi Gui not get the cast jade plate, he had not even confirmed who had the cast jade plate.

Now that I was asked, besides embarrassment, I only felt ashamed.

"I was about to go back to report this matter. The Bu family is not as simple as we thought. We all underestimated the Bu family."

Shi Gui said hesitantly, as if he was making excuses for his failure.

"Oh? How do you say this?"

A strange smile appeared on Xu Hengxiang's face, he looked at Shi Gui and asked aloud.

The words sounded concerned, but there was an unusual meaning in the tone.

It's just that Shi Guizheng was in embarrassment and panic and didn't notice the weirdness.

When I was asked, I only gave a few explanations.

"The Bu family owns a huge airship, and I don't know where it got the treasure. It is not afraid of attacks from hero-level powerhouses, and its destructive power is extremely shocking."

Shi Gui exaggerated to cover up his defeat.

If the enemy is so powerful, it's not that I'm unwilling to do my best, but that I really don't have enough ability and strength.

"So, the wounds on your body were caused by that airship?"

Xu Hengxiang looked at Shi Gui with a playful smile.

The blood has dried up, but the wound is not so easy to heal.

So even if Shi Gui wanted to hide it, he couldn't.

However, there is no need to cover up injuries of this level. Instead, they should be displayed openly, which can also prove what Shi Gui said.

That means the enemy is simply too powerful.

In this case, at least part of the responsibility for the failure of the mission can be attributed to the members who collected the intelligence, so as to reduce the punishment they will receive.

"Yes, I didn't expect that the Bu family would have such a powerful treasure in their hands."

"Otherwise, I wouldn't be so embarrassed."

Shi Gui sighed, then looked back in the direction of Feiyan City.

This place is already quite a distance away from Feiyan City. Presumably that lucky guy Bu Yuyan won't chase her.

"It seems that your mission has failed, and the jade plate is still in the hands of the Bu family, right?"

Xu Hengxiang didn't pay attention to Shi Gui's defense, but summed up slowly.

"This... is, yes."

Shi Gui choked at Xu Hengxiang's words, a stern look flashed in his eyes, but he still nodded and admitted.

This kind of thing cannot be avoided. No matter whether the mission is successful or failed, it needs to be recorded after returning to the Foundry Hall.

Just having the window paper pierced directly made Shi Gui feel a little embarrassed.

"I already understand the general situation. Then your remaining value can be considered used up."

Xu Hengxiang's tone was still calm and indifferent.

But he seemed to have said something terrible unintentionally, which shocked Shi Gui. He suddenly looked up at Xu Hengxiang and asked sharply: "What do you mean by this?"

"What does it mean that the remaining value has been used up?"

Saying these words undoubtedly hurt Shi Gui's heart.

However, Xu Hengxiang didn't care at all. He looked at Shi Gui, who was in trouble, and said with a half-smile: "What do you mean? Of course it means literally."

Xu Hengxiang slowly pulled out the thin sword from his waist, half-squinting his eyes, and his tone gradually became dangerous.

"Sometimes, the value of someone disappearing forever is greater than being alive."

"Do you understand? Shi Gui."

As soon as these words came out, a ray of light suddenly flashed in Xu Hengxiang's eyes, and then his figure disappeared from the spot.

"What did you say?! What do you want to do! Ah..."

"puff--!"

Shi Gui stepped back in horror, but in the next second, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his back.

Immediately afterwards, a thin sword came out from his chest and appeared in front of his eyes.

The patterns carved on the sword are very beautiful, and after being stained with blood, it looks even more charming.

The ferocious fighting spirit tore Shi Gui's heart into pieces.

A stream of bright red blood also overflowed from Shi Gui's mouth and dripped on the ground.

"Why... why..."

Shi Gui opened his mouth wide, his eyes full of confusion.

The brilliance that was just used to prove that Shi Hui was still alive was dissipating bit by bit from his eyes.

"Because Duan Wenxin cannot be allowed to get the cast jade plate, at least before he comes down from the throne of the palace master, he must not be allowed to get the cast jade plate!"

While Xu Hengxiang answered, he drew out the rapier from Shi Gui's back.
