The man stopped in the deserted street.

This is not a downtown area, but it is not a wilderness, it is just an ordinary corner of the city.It was late at night, and the streets were deserted except for the occasional passing vehicle.The shop had already closed, the shutter doors were closed, and the surrounding buildings were pitch black, with only a few windows still lit.

If there is anything strange, it is that the position where the man is standing happens to be in a surveillance blind spot.

Whether it is the traffic camera probe or the monitoring installed by the surrounding shops, it just missed this place.

Someone asked him to meet here.

About three days ago, a stranger approached him and said someone wanted to meet him.

The stranger found out about the man's whereabouts from nowhere, and went to the door without saying a word.The man searched his mind for the friends he had met in the past few days, thinking about which of them leaked his whereabouts.He has been in a bad situation recently, and he would have died a long time ago without the help of his friends, but their support for him is not purely out of kindness, but just taking advantage of each other.One day in the future, they will take advantage of this "favor of a meal" to benefit from him.When he was so prosperous in the past, he also treated his down-and-out friends like this.So he doesn't appreciate them.What's more, if his whereabouts were leaked, it would be even more worthy of anger.

A stranger found him hiding in a cheap rental house and said straight to the point: Our boss wants to see you.

"You know who I am?" he asked.

"Ace of Hearts, one of the four Aces in the wanted card." The stranger said, with a sarcastic sneer at the corner of his mouth.

Ace of Hearts looked down at her plain to shabby clothes, and snorted softly.Some people in the underworld world are proud to be printed on wanted cards on poker cards. Of course, the higher the position, the more honorable it is. Some people with abnormal brains even fight for higher rankings.So some people take it for granted that the more powerful the character in the arrest warrant, the more glamorous he should be, like the "king of crime" in novels and movies, living in a mansion, going in and out by helicopter, and spending time with famous detectives and the like The characters fight wits and courage.

Actually not.They are just some more rampant criminals, and occasionally they stumble and overturn the gutter.Ace of Hearts belongs to the kind that turns over more miserably.But one day he will avenge himself.

He had no idea who this person wanted to see him.Since it is so formal to ask someone to "invite" him, instead of calling a bunch of people to "catch" him, it means that it should be someone from the underworld.Maybe some giant in the industry heard about his tragedy and wanted to take the opportunity to recruit him to join him.It's like saving a wounded wolf and trying to train it into a loyal dog.Oh, overestimate one's abilities.

But Ace of Hearts still agreed to meet the boss.It's not that he wants to agree to the other party's request, but out of pure curiosity - who is this boss, and who is the idiot who betrayed his whereabouts.

He must ask to find out if the truth is revealed.

So he came to the agreed place at the appointed time.

He stood there waiting for a while, and soon, a figure approached from far away.When the man walked, his steps were brisk and his posture was vigorous. A martial arts practitioner like the Ace of Hearts could tell at a glance that the other party was the same person as himself.If you haven't practiced lightness kung fu, you can't walk like flying like this.

The man walked out of the darkness of night into the light of a street lamp.Heart A saw that it was a slender young man in his early twenties, with a baby face and a tear mole at the corner of his eye. From Heart A's point of view, he belonged to the more girly-looking category.The young man was sinister when he laughed, even a notorious murderer like the Ace of Hearts felt a shudder.

"It's you?" Ace of Hearts raised her chin.

"Are you Senior Ace of Hearts? I'm sorry, this junior is being polite." The young man said and bowed.

"Shut up if you have something to say, and let go of your fart." Ace of Hearts was impatient.

"Senior is really straightforward, then I can speak directly. I hope that senior can join me and help me."

Heart A spat on the ground: "Who the hell do you think you are?"

"Just a little guy trying to do something."

"You don't even say who you are and what you want to do, how can I join you?"

"Only if you get on my thief ship first, can I tell you where the thief ship is heading. However, of course, your benefits are indispensable. Anyway, you don't have any new plans for the time being, why don't you cooperate with me?"

The young man called his organization and career a "thief ship," and he seemed to have an unusual sense of humor. It was unclear whether he was laughing at himself, or deliberately trying to win the favor of the Ace of Hearts in such a very personal way.It is well known that Ace of Hearts is an out-of-the-ordinary and eclectic character, he doesn't pay attention to ordinary people at all, and only people with the same weird behavior can fall into his eyes.

"Understood." Ace of hearts said lightly.

The young man was overjoyed. "So the senior promised..."

"You are dismissed."

The young man's smile froze on his face.

"roll!"

"Is there something wrong with me?"

"You think I'm a beggar? If you give me a piece of meat, I'll have to follow you?"

"I have never looked down on seniors, but the plight of seniors is obvious to all..."

The young man suddenly remembered something, and narrowed his eyes: "Does senior hate those two people who hurt you?"

Heart A was shocked. "You know?" He didn't tell anyone about being attacked by Qiu Tongyun and 8 of Spades, and he kept his mouth shut. He also has self-esteem, and he doesn't want others to know that he was betrayed by his subordinates.Where did the young man know about it?

Since he didn't say it, then it can only be spread by Qiu Tongyun and 8 of Spades.He has always suspected that those two people—especially Qiu Tongyun—have other backers behind them, otherwise they would never have the courage to disobey him.

"Let's be honest, those two people came to seek my asylum after they injured senior and stole senior's rare treasures. Because I have some old friendship with them, I agreed. It's just that they are really not good at it, they will only procrastinate." My hind legs. If the seniors are not angry, I will hand them over to the seniors to dispose of them to appease your hatred, and that treasure will return to its original owner. What do you think?"

It really was him!Ace of Hearts gritted her teeth bitterly.The backer behind Qiu Tongyun and 8 of Spades is this young man!

8 of Spades has a weak personality, can't support the wall with mud, always obeys what he says, even if he is dissatisfied, he will obey or run away, and never dare to disobey.The mutiny of 8 of Spades must have been instigated by Qiu Tongyun behind the scenes.That woman was indeed a beautiful snake, who actually fooled the 8 of spades around.

In other words, the sneak attack was actually planned by Qiu Tongyun.To be precise, this young man is Qiu Tongyun's backer.Qiu Tongyun recognized him, that's why he took the 8 of spades and defected.

Qiu Tongyun is a remnant of the Devil's Cult, so it is conceivable that this young man is also inseparable from the Devil's Cult.

Although Ace of Hearts is also a figure on the Tao, he has always been inseparable from the Devil's Cult, and has little intersection with each other.As a world-renowned elegant thief, he actually looks down on some of the Demon Cult's style of work, so he disdains to associate with them.However, since everyone is on the same path, Ace of Hearts has more or less heard some rumors about the Demon Cult, and has also met a few upper-level figures of the Demon Cult.

Those who can restrain Qiu Tongyun must not be able to compete in the Devil's Cult, and their martial arts are not bad.Is there such a number one figure in the Demon Cult?

Heart A suddenly remembered an interesting rumor.It is said that the Demon Cult has secretly sent undercover spies to various righteous sects of martial arts...

"I know who you are."

The young man raised his eyebrows and said nothing.

"Do you think that I will join you if you are all Taoists? Don't dream! I hate you demon cult monsters the most! Even if I surrender myself, I will not be in cahoots with you and other monsters!"

The young man scoffed. "I didn't expect senior to have such a thug demeanor."

"If you're willing to hang out with Qiu Tongyun and 8 of Spades, that's up to you, anyway, you both share the same taste. I won't accompany you! Hmph, if I had known it was you, I wouldn't have come here. It's a waste of my trip. precious time!"

Ace of Hearts has a weird cleanliness obsession. When he meets someone he hates, even if he takes a second look, he will feel that his eyes are polluted.This demon cult monster stood in front of him, of course he wished he could not see it.He tapped his toes, turned around and flew up, stepped lightly on the street lamp, and the whole person disappeared into the night like a feathered immortal.

His qinggong is the best in the world, and there are only a handful of people who can catch up with him. This young man is obviously not one of them, so he can only look up at the night sky and watch him go away.

Ace of Hearts was flying in the night, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became.His treasure is actually in the hands of a demon cultist, so maddening!Even if the treasure is destroyed, it is better than falling into the hands of such a person!

No, he had to find a way to get "Sword Dance Picture" back.

The young man's dark smile came to Ace of Hearts' mind.He finally figured out why this young man was always smiling, but it made him feel uncomfortable.

Because he keeps laughing.

Is that any different from never smiling?

"Good morning Xiao Daxia!" Gu Xiaofei's energetic voice sounded in the room early in the morning.Ever since he went to the amusement park, his lively side has been fully developed. Although he was very lively before, he is now more cheerful, shining and glowing like a little sun every day, and he is even closer to Xiao Xuechen.This naturally fell into Xiao Xuechen's arms.He wished that Gu Xiaofei could get closer to him.

"Do you practice sword today?"

The national competition is about to start, Xiao Xuechen dare not neglect to practice, and practice with Gu Xiaofei every day.

"Today, we will have a martial arts competition with the head of Chen Haokong. Do you want to go too?"

"Okay! I miss Master Chen quite a bit! He didn't blame me for breaking his knife in a match with him last time, he's such a good guy!" Gu Xiaofei had a good impression of the young master, and let Xiao Xuechen was slightly jealous.Although Gu Xiaofei's affection for Chen Haokong is limited to "he is a good person/good friend/good friend's sworn elder brother", Xiao Xuechen is still worried.Wasn't Gu Xiaofei's initial attitude towards him also "good brother"?You must guard against it!

But Xiao Xuechen had to let Gu Xiaofei follow him to watch the battle.If he knew that he deliberately didn't tell him, he would definitely lose his temper.Simply take Gu Xiaofei along.If he has the upper hand in the competition, he can refresh Gu Xiaofei's favor.

The competition will be held in a martial arts gym in Yinghai City.The martial arts gym is opened by a friend of Fang Xinhe, and Xiao Xuechen also goes there occasionally.

Hearing that Chen Haokong from Broken Water Gate and Xiao Xuechen from Lingxu Sect met for a martial arts competition, many martial arts professionals gathered in the martial arts hall, and they couldn't wait to see it.After Gu Xiaofei's experience in the arena, he didn't feel stage fright when he saw so many people watching.In particular, these people are all martial arts practitioners. Compared with ordinary audiences, their vision is more unique and professional. Gu Xiaofei even developed a wonderful sense of belonging.

Xiao Xuechen was warming up and practicing in the martial arts hall, while Gu Xiaofei was bored and wandered outside the martial arts hall.Seeing Qi Chong speeding towards him in his own luxury car from afar attracted the amazement and envy of many passers-by.Qi Chong's outfit is comparable to that of a luxury car, and the atmosphere of "I am the second generation of rich" permeates from head to toe.

"Qi Chong! You are coming too!" Seeing Qi Chong, Gu Xiaofei raised his hand high.Although they used to be rivals, they have already turned their fighting into friendship and became friends. "Are you here to cheer for your big brother?"

"He's not. My big brother!" Qi Chong slammed the car door, gritted his teeth.

Gu Xiaofei opened his eyes wide. "Don't tell me...you want to be his big brother? No, he's older than you after all. It's a disadvantage to be born late, so accept your fate." He said sympathetically.

"Shut up!" Qi Chong was so angry that he jumped his feet, "I will cut off my robe with him today!"
