Chapter 381 Escape
If the chief priest had not been so highly skilled and was not also a notoriously ruthless person, the Third Master might have cursed him out loud at this moment.
I am only in the sixth level of heaven, how can I kill the master of the Golden Sword Sect? I didn't even dare to think about it.
"Great Priest, I just arrived too."
The Third Master lowered his head and said something in defense. The Chief Priest realized that he had said something wrong, so he turned around and looked at the situation. Then he suddenly rushed to the river bank and said, "Go down and fish out the knife."
Although the chief priest is the ceiling of the Cao Gang's combat power, he is indeed not familiar with water.
The Third Master didn't dare to say more, nor did he dare to ask the chief priest what kind of knife he was talking about. He could only look at the faint golden color in the river, jumped in with a bitter face, and then held up the golden knife with a look of shock.
"Zhao Yushu?" The Third Master didn't quite believe it.
"Absolutely impossible. He is only a few levels deep. It is possible that Jin Chongyun might slip and crash into himself and kill himself. But it is more difficult to take his weapon than to kill him."
The two men stopped talking. Neither of them was good at reasoning. Apart from Zhao Yushu, the biggest known factor, they couldn't think of anyone else who could kill Jin Chongyun.
"Could it be that the academy has come to the inner scene?"
The chief priest glanced at the Third Master. How did such a fool become the third master in Jiangnan? If there was someone inside the city, how could there be no movement?
The Third Master nodded twice and dared not say anything else. He turned around and pretended to observe Jin Chongyun's body. Hmm, this injury is so strange. Zhao Yushu used a sword.
By the way, where is the fourth brother?
The third master raised his head blankly and looked around. Was the fourth master dead? Where was his body?
Then they heard footsteps. The chief priest and the third master turned around and saw Duan Tiezhu who looked quite embarrassed.
"You're not dead?"
As soon as the Third Master opened his mouth, Tiezhu's face suddenly became much gloomier, and his already dark skin looked even darker.
"I'm afraid I'll disappoint the Third Master."
The chief priest came over and asked: "What on earth happened here?"
"When I heard the noise, the leader of the Jin Sect was fighting with a man in a black robe. The two men were equally powerful, but the man in the black robe was more powerful. I didn't dare to get close and stayed away from him. Then I saw Zhao Yushu."
Duan Tiezhu began to lie seriously and, following Zhao Yushu's instructions, fabricated a non-existent black robe.
The chief priest's face changed. Black robe? Are they fighting among themselves?
"Where did Zhao Yushu go?" the Third Master asked hurriedly.
"I followed him all the way to the Watergate, and he went out of it."
"You didn't stop him!" The Third Master was a little anxious.
"You really want me to die!" The fourth master, Lao Duan, counterattacked without any hesitation, and the third master was immediately speechless.
The chief priest raised his hand, and the two weak men took a step back at the same time.
"Where did that black-robed man go?"
"Well, I don't know. I didn't even dare to look. I just came back."
The chief priest hesitated for a moment, then suddenly soared into the sky and headed straight towards the water gate.
San Ye and Tie Zhu looked at each other, and San Ye turned and left, as if he had never been there.
-----------------------------------------------
Time goes back, and the chief priest is hesitating at Master Xia's place whether to go out.
"The water gate is ahead. Should I take you out or wait until dawn?" Tiezhu put Zhao Yushu down, and the two of them leaned against the wall, looking at the brightly lit water gate. There were no less than hundreds of soldiers patrolling there, and even a few monks.
"Just leave me here. Go back quickly. Otherwise, you will be easily suspected if no one finds you alive or dead."
"If you leave it here, any ordinary person who comes here at this time can kill your grandson!"
"Hey, I just ruined your street, I'll compensate you, why do you keep scolding me?"
Zhao Yushu trembled as he took out a banknote, but Duan Tiezhu snatched it away: "Bah, I'm after your filthy money!"
Zhao Yushu thought to himself, if you don’t miss me, just give it back to me.
"Go back. If anyone asks, just say this..."
Duan Tiezhu couldn't understand why Zhao Yushu asked him to invent a black robe. Could it be that this kid wanted to use the black robe's identity to do something?
Duan Tiezhu nodded, stood up and prepared to leave.
"Old Duan!" Zhao Yushu called out softly.
Tiezhu turned around and asked: "What's the matter?"
"Have you ever thought about leaving Xiangzhou?"
Tiezhu stood there for a moment, then let out a long breath: "Before I became wise, I was always a laborer. After I became wise, I traveled all over the world, doing dirty work for Wangjiang Tower. I'm a little tired. The older I get, the more I understand that people have to settle down. I like Xiangzhou very much."
Zhao Yushu nodded and said, "I'll get rid of Master San and Master Xia for you some other day."
Duan Tiezhu cursed again and turned away.
"Old Duan!"
"What the fuck is going on again!"
Zhao Yushu smiled and said, "Thank you, brother."
Tiezhu curled his lips and said, "Get lost!"
Tiezhu went back, and Zhao Yushu took a few deep breaths and prepared to run away.
I should wait a little longer, until tomorrow, or until my injuries are mostly healed, and then go out.
But he couldn't wait. If the great priest caught up with him, he might not have a chance.
The water gate is very large and deep. With my current physical condition, I should be able to use the Shadow Step twice, but this distance is not enough. I need at least three. The mountain god is working hard to repair his injuries, and I am very short of time.
The chief priest arrived faster than he had expected. According to calculations, Tiezhu should have just returned. In other words, the chief priest arrived at Zang Street earlier than Tiezhu and rushed over immediately after receiving the news.
If Tiezhu lied, it would delay some time, but then Tiezhu might be suspected, so Zhao Yushu asked him to tell the truth and not hide his position.
Zhao Yushu looked at the unconcealed movement in the distance, and the iron tower-like body jumping towards him in the night. For no reason, he thought of the poor giant ape Yuan Wu.
He tried to urge Kunwu, but Kunwu ignored him and it seemed that he had not recovered yet.
Forget it, I can only rely on myself. Zhao Yushu stood up and prepared to give it a try.
The spiritual power of the great priest instantly covered the area around Minato, and the huge sense of oppression caused a commotion.
"I am the chief priest of the Cao Gang, all irrelevant people, get out of here!"
Although the soldiers at Shuimen were not members of the Cao Gang, they had all received orders from their superiors, so they hurriedly put away their weapons and retreated back to their respective camps.
"Zhao Yushu, come out, you can't escape."
Zhao Yushu came out and stood in the shadows: "Great Priest, what can I teach you?"
The chief priest looked grim: "Who killed Jin Chongyun?"
"Me." Zhao Yushu laughed.
"fart!"
He was indeed injured, but he was hiding the existence of the black robe. Why? Aren't they enemies?
The chief priest's mind was a little confused, and she was not good at dealing with things that required thinking.
"If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do."
Zhao Yushu spread his hands and said, "Is there anything else you want to ask, Grand Priest? If not, I'll leave first."
The chief priest sneered: "Leave? Can you leave?"
A heavy punch came down from the sky, with a red flame on the fist. Zhao Yushu felt like he saw a meteorite.
