C280 Bandit Logic

After leaving Elegant Starry Night, Shi Dali first sent Yi Hong back to the forest area. After all, the two of them were worried about the Ancient Dragon Subduing Tree, so they would definitely be more at ease while they stay.

Before leaving, Shi Dali asked Manager Gu. He still didn't hear any news about Ye Zhe'en and didn't know what the detective was up to.

If it was anyone else, Teacher Shi would definitely be worried. After all, investigating a case like this one from so many years ago might face some dangers.

However, as the most outstanding detective in the world, Ye Zhe'en's level was rather reassuring.

Originally, according to Shi Dali's plan, he was prepared to send Liu Tie back to his rented apartment. Previously, he said that because of those pots and pans, the entire house was about to be destroyed, but after living for these few days, Teacher Shi still felt an indescribable yearning in his heart.

As for Huo Lang, he took Xiao Soong to the hotel. Until Tian Xiaoyu found a reliable new home, this was all he could do.

The result was completely out of Shi Dali's expectation. On the way back to his rented apartment, he received a call from Huo Lang.

"Are you alright now? Let's have a drink together."

A calm voice sounded, causing Teacher Shi to be stunned.

If he wasn't sure that this was Huo Lang's phone call, he felt like someone else might have said that.

Ever since Shi Dali and Huo Lang realized, he had never touched a single drop of alcohol. The vigilance that seemed to be ingrained within the bones of an expert made Huo Lang constantly stay awake and vigilant.

Naturally, he did not drink.

However, at such a time tonight, Huo Lang actually said such words on his own accord. Without a doubt, it could be related to tonight's conversation regarding the missing arm.

"Sure, I'll be right over."

… ….

In about 20 minutes, Shi Dali saw Huo Lang in the tavern downstairs.

The two of them sat down and ordered two bottles of beer and some dishes with the liquor, but Shi Dali was almost done. Huo Lang didn't have any intention of talking and still didn't drink a single mouthful.

This made Teacher Shi a bit helpless.

"Brother Wolf, you called me over to drink. You really made me come over to drink. Even if you don't drink …" Eat some! "

After Shi Dali finished his sentence, Huo Lang seemed to have recovered from his long train of thoughts in a slight daze.

Then, he looked at Shi Dali and said slowly.

"Do you know how I lost my arm?"

Shi Dali was waiting for this moment as he was filled with doubts. After he finished listening to Huo Lang's words, he immediately became serious.

"It was cut off by someone. I only used one strike, and I have no way of defending against it. That blade strike was the strongest I've ever seen …"

Huo Lang continued to speak with a deep tone.

Teacher Shi sat opposite him as if he was struck by lightning. He couldn't believe that he would hear such a thing.

It was written clearly on the the Best Book in the World that Huo Lang was the best blade in the world and stood at the peak of the martial arts world at the age of eighteen. Why would there be people who could cut off his arm with the knife that he was the best at?

However, his reaction was fast, Shi Dali thought of the two parts of the the Best Book in the World. What he obtained was only the upper part, they were all the former number one under the heavens, and the lower part was where the current number one was.

Thinking about it this way, he was sure that the guy who replaced Huo Lang as the number one blade in this world was the guy who cut off Huo Lang's arm.

"His name is Zi Gong. When I was eighteen, I became friends with him, but he stayed in his house as a guest for two years. In those two years, he learned my blade technique, and in the end, he cut off my arm and chased me away …"

Huo Lang remained calm. It was as if he was telling the story of someone else.2

However, Shi Dali felt a chill down his spine when he heard this.

He did not know who this person was, but such an action was extremely vicious. He learned Huo Lang's sabresmanship and then cut off Huo Lang's arm!

Killing is not scary, killing the heart... That was what made him so desperate.

"How is he so strong?"

Shi Dali asked as he wiped the sweat off his forehead.

To Teacher Shi, these things sounded incredible. It was as if something happened in another world, and even if he tried hard to understand it, it would be difficult.

"He's very strong. He's a genius, stronger than me … I once wanted to end my own life, but because of Xiao Soong's appearance, I gave up on that idea. However, this arm also made me remember that I could never win against him, and even if this arm were to come back, I would never be able to win against him.

The gloomy voice was shrouded in a trace of despair. Shi Dali had never seen such an expression on Huo Lang's face before.

At the same time, he also finally understood why Huo Lang refused to let this arm grow out again. It was because he couldn't untie the knot in his heart. It was like a magic spell, torturing him all the time.

The two of them did not say anything else and just remained silent. After about a minute, Shi Dali's voice finally sounded.

"Brother Lang, where is this tribute?"

Perhaps Teacher Shi had never experienced the feeling of standing at the peak like Huo Lang, so he was able to maintain his steadiness and confidence.

He had never seen this tribute, but he believed that this person would definitely be able to defeat him, just like how he believed that one day he could rely on eating heavenly materials to become a peerless expert.

Plus, he didn't want to see Huo Lang in such a state.

"He comes from the Plum Blossom Village. I only know that his home is called the Plum Blossom Village …"

Huo Lang finally took a sip of beer, and at the same time, his voice sounded.

"Plum Blossom Village?"

He did not think that he would once again hear the word "Plum Blossom Village" from Huo Lang's mouth. One must know that Yi Hong and Ye Zhe'en had both said before that their enemy was within the Plum Blossom Village, and that organization might be the most terrifying existence in all of history.

Who would have thought that the person who broke Huo Lang's arm, would also be from Plum Blossom Village!

"You know?"

This time, Huo Lang was indeed surprised, as he never expected Shi Dali to know about the matters of Plum Blossom Village.

Afterwards, Teacher Shi paused for a moment, then told Huo Lang everything about Plum Blossom Village that he had discussed with Ye Zhe'en and the others. When he finished, Huo Lang was obviously shocked.

"Brother Wolf, Ye Zhe'en is the world's number one divine scout, Old Man Yi is the Best Doctor In The World, and you are the world's number one blade, yet you were tricked by Plum Blossom Village! So don't be discouraged, this bullsh * t organization must have some tricks up their sleeves, so you should pull yourself together. Although we say that we came from all over the world, we have come together for a common goal … "So, fuck it!"
