The stolen magic is a bit magical

“At first it was indeed only 80%, but your expression just now tells me that I can believe it to be 90% or more!” Lan Yao said.

"If... I'm just saying if... if this information is true, does this White Bone Heavenly King who infiltrated the Hidden Dragon really have a chance to stop here and truly change his ways?"

“If Hydra were still around, it’s highly unlikely, but times are constantly changing, and Hydra is no longer here!” Lan Yao said. “Is it still worth risking your life for it? The current emperor needs people, and heroes are not judged by their origins. As long as you truly make great contributions to the Great Xia, why worry about not being able to truly wash away the stain on your record?”

“I understand! You’re being… pedantic!” Jing Lei chuckled softly.

Lan Yao sighed, "Yes, as a hidden dragon, one is bound to be somewhat pedantic. One always hopes to leave behind good talents for the country. Even if they are from the enemy, as long as they can be of use to us, the hidden dragon of Great Xia can still accept them."

"Having served in the Hidden Dragon for thirteen years, I am certainly aware of its pedantry," Jing Lei said. "Unfortunately... I am not pedantic!"

His voice fell.

A sharp cone suddenly appeared between the blue demon's eyebrows.

The speed of this sharp cone transcends time and space.

The mighty Blue Demon King was unable to dodge at all.

She specially invited Jing Lei tonight.

Consulting Jing Lei about such a serious problem.

It doesn't seem logical.

However, considering her words, it seems to make sense.

The answer is just two words: pedantic!

She saw Jing Lei's past achievements and hoped that he would change his ways. In her imagination, Hydra was gone, and Jing Lei no longer needed to work for Hydra. He could completely abandon his former identity, break free from the shackles, and truly become a hidden dragon, continuing to make contributions on the battlefield. This whitewashing was easy in theory but also very easy in practice.

That's why she didn't tell the Dragon Head this top-secret information, but instead met with Jing Lei in private.

Unfortunately, she was pedantic, while Jing Lei was not.

The private meeting gave her the opportunity to strike a fatal blow and eliminate her, the insider...

The sharp cone was already at the center of the blue demon's brow.

Suddenly, a sharp sword light appeared out of nowhere.

With a clang of metal, the wooden tea room split in two, and the tea table in front of Jing Lei and Lan Yao was also split in two.

The lights went out, and the sunlight streamed in.

Under the faint starlight, Jing Lei stood face to face with a person.

Tall and handsome, with an air of elegance.

Lin Xiaosu!
"Lin Xiaosu, guess how surprised I am by your sudden appearance?" Jing Lei said coldly.

Lin Xiaosu smiled faintly: "My hiding place is right next to yours. If you can't even sense that, you don't deserve to be called the strongest king of Hydra in the past!"

"Yes, I sensed your presence long ago, and I am also very clear that Lan Yao's story is all your doing. Even if I kill her, as long as you are still around, I will still be in trouble. So, my purpose is to use the opportunity of killing her to force you, the real culprit, to show yourself."

"Understood! Take this!" A cold glint suddenly flashed from the tip of the Five Elements Sword in Lin Xiaosu's hand, and with a hiss!
The separation is severed!
Cut it down with one sword.

Thunder...

No, the White Bone King!

With a flicker of the sharp cone in his hand, his entire being also flickered!
The two of them suddenly vanished into thin air!
hiss!
The entire tea room was torn to pieces.

A sudden gust of cold wind swept in front of the Blue Demon, a chilling coldness straight from hell.

She suddenly turned to the side, and with a clang, the metallic clang rang in her ears!

As Lan Yao moved swiftly, she was more than three zhang away, her heart pounding wildly.

She knew what had just happened.

Just now, a thunderclap... no, the White Bone Heavenly King launched a fatal attack on her.

Lin Xiaosu took it.

She was the Hidden Dragon King, and also a battlefield queen. However, she couldn't withstand the fatal blow of the thunderbolt, and couldn't even see it clearly. She could only rely on her years of combat instincts to make an emergency response.

If it weren't for Lin Xiaosu, she would have been seriously injured, if not killed.

This is the difference between her and the other two.

boom!
A big tree has fallen!

She couldn't see at all how the tree broke.

Boom! The courtyard wall collapsed too!

A sudden gust of wind blew up the hillside, and the hillside looked as if it had been hit by a super tornado. The grass and trees were flying everywhere, and even with her eyesight, she could only see two shadows darting back and forth.

For a moment, they couldn't tell who was who...

The next moment, the hillside fell silent, but a great commotion erupted deep within the jungle.

The storm pushed all the way into the depths of the jungle, deeper and deeper.

choke!
With a metallic clang, the two figures separated.

Lin Xiaosu positioned one foot on the top of a tree.

The White Bone Heavenly King planted one foot on a giant rock.

The autumn wind blows, bringing a sense of desolation.

Night had fallen, and there was no one around.

Only two pairs of eyes, two sharp weapons.

"Lin Xiaosu, I really underestimated you!" The White Bone Heavenly King took a deep breath: "You actually managed to dig up my roots after traveling all the way to Luoba Prefecture."

"You're not denying it now?" Lin Xiaosu asked.

“As Blue Demon said, verifying this top-secret information is not difficult. Now that the trump card has been revealed, why deny it?” White Bone Heavenly King said coldly.

"Actually... there is no such information!" Lin Xiaosu breathed a sigh of relief.

"What?" The White Bone King was terrified. Lin Xiaosu smiled faintly: "We didn't find any information about you in Luoba Prefecture. I only forced Blue Demon to expose you because I suspected you!"

"A plan!" The White Bone King closed his eyes slightly, and black energy swirled wildly on his face.

"There's no need to be upset about falling for this scheme. Just as Lan Yao said, and as you emphasized, since I have this intention, obtaining your irrefutable evidence is not difficult. It's just a matter of making another trip to Luobazhou!"

The White Bone King slowly opened his eyes: "That makes sense! But the key question is... why do you doubt me?"

"This might sound hurtful, are you sure you want to hear it?"

"At this moment, what words could be more hurtful than reality? Say them!"

Lin Xiaosu said, "I have two reasons to suspect you! First, your battle achievements are far inferior to mine, yet Hydra has placed you at the top of the 'Death List.' Your merits are not commensurate with your position, so there must be something fishy going on. I have reason to suspect that Hydra is covering for you."

The White Bone King's heart was in turmoil...

It's unclear whether it's anger or shock.

Surprisingly, the Hydra Death List, the most ingenious psychological warfare strategy devised by the Hydra think tank, became the key reason for their own exposure.

What's infuriating is that he casually dismissed it as "unworthy of his position"!
"And the second one?" The White Bone King's voice remained calm.

"Secondly, it was when you captured Cai Qin from the Second Strategy Division, that I struck Cai Qin with the Great Void Whirlwind attack right next to your ear!"

The Bone King took a deep breath: "Just as I expected!"

"As expected? You already guessed it?"

"I realized afterwards... I should have taken that hit! But I still held onto a sliver of hope that this wasn't your doing..." The White Bone King sighed, "Lin Xiaosu, I seem to have to admit that your plan was even more insidious than Bai Shui's!"

"Don't praise me like that!" Lin Xiaosu said a little embarrassedly, "Senior Bai Shui's plan is grand and meticulous. My plan is rather childish. It can't be used against gentlemen, only against scoundrels!"

This is only for petty people!
The White Bone King laughed in exasperation: "Detective Lin is quite adept at verbal sparring, but tonight, it's time to end this!"

The words have fallen!

The sharp awl in his hand suddenly reached Lin Xiaosu's throat.

This attack was twice as fast as the previous one!
The killing spree just now had left Lan Yao in awe.

The killing now fully confirms that the White Bone Heavenly King was actually holding back – he needed to know who in his family wanted him dead.

Qianlong already knew his identity, and he could no longer stay in Qianlong. His family was his last stronghold, and he had to find out what was wrong with his family. This was the real reason why he risked being surrounded by Qianlong to have his last conversation with Lin Xiaosu.

Now that all the mysteries have been solved, there's no need to hold back anymore.

He had to kill Lin Xiaosu immediately and then begin his escape. This place was Daliang Mountain, a place with high mountains and dense forests. Beyond Daliang Mountain lay the territory of another country. Even if all the Heavenly Kings of Qianlong came out and all the Red Flags were raised, he, the former First King, was still confident of escaping.

However, what the White Bone King did not expect was...

His speed doubled, and Lin Xiaosu in front of him also suddenly doubled his speed as well.

Chi!
The sword struck with unparalleled sharpness.

Before his spike even reached Lin Xiaosu's throat, Lin Xiaosu's longsword had already reached his throat.

The speed of this sword strike far exceeded the fastest sword strike Lin Xiaosu had ever used on the Thirty-Three Towers.

They are almost incomparable!

What does this mean?
Not only did he conceal his true combat power in the Thirty-Three Towers under the identity of Jing Lei, but Lin Xiaosu, while seemingly fighting his way through the Thirty-Three Towers, was also hiding his true skills.

Chi!
The White Bone Heavenly King has a sword in his throat!

However, a flash of silver light appeared in his throat, and what flowed out was not blood, but a silvery-white liquid with a metallic sheen.

Lin Xiaosu was suddenly jolted.

The White Bone Heavenly King's spike had already reached his skin.

Lin Xiaosu dodged quickly, and blood splattered out.

He's injured!
It's not that he wasn't fast enough!

Instead, he was unharmed by the White Bone King's sword strike, but was injured by a single blow from a sharp cone.

The White Bone Heavenly King in front of me suddenly changed...

A very strange change!
His entire body was covered in a silvery-white fluid that seemed to be bubbling up from his flesh. In a short while, his whole body turned silvery-white, like a robot.

With a whoosh, he moved.

Moving like a fleeting shadow!
With a flick of her wrist, Lin Xiaosu unleashed the Five Elements Sword, which fell like a collapsing mountain.

boom!
He struck out a figure from the air, which was none other than the White Bone Heavenly King, whose body had turned into a blur.

The White Bone King retreated ten meters away, then suddenly stretched out his hand, which transformed into two sharp cones that pierced straight at Lin Xiaosu.

Lin Xiaosu's sword transformed into two shadows, slashing down almost simultaneously. Both arms seemed to be severed in one strike, but the severed arms suddenly bent, encircling from all sides. In the instant of the encirclement, the arms turned into sharp serrations and vibrated at high speed.

Lin Xiaosu soared into the sky, breaking through the encirclement of the jagged teeth in an instant, and arrived in front of the White Bone King. The White Bone King smiled sinisterly, and his ribs suddenly transformed into swords, thrusting straight at Lin Xiaosu's face. At the same time, the two outer arms spun rapidly, striking at the back of Lin Xiaosu's head.

In an instant, the fight between the two became extremely bizarre.

This was the first time in Lin Xiaosu's life that she had experienced such a strange battle.

The White Bone Heavenly King has weapons all over his body.

It's because his skeleton is made of liquid metal, which can take on any shape. His hands can be cones, knives, or even saws.

The same applies to the ribs and shoulder bones.

This metal is both hard and soft, unbreakable, and infinitely versatile.

He was like a combination of the Li Tian clan and the Wing Blade.

Every part of its body possesses the transformation abilities of the Litian Clan, and each transformation is imbued with the indestructibility of the Wing Blade, as well as unparalleled speed.

Any of the Heavenly Kings in the Hidden Dragon Clan would be unable to withstand more than three moves against such a White Bone Heavenly King.

However, Lin Xiaosu's incredible qualities were also fully revealed. (End of Chapter)
