Chapter 49: Interesting
Xiao Shao turned his gaze back to the cold corpse in front of him, and continued to examine the cause of death carefully. A few minutes later, he found a long, thin, pale gash on his neck. He traced the long wound slowly with his slender finger.
’This is a wound from a very sharp weapon. The only one who can kill without blood is the Pavilion Master of the Moon Pavilion. Don’t tell me, her real identity is–’
When Xu Xiang’s question came from behind, Xiao Shao’s thoughts stopped abruptly.
"Young Master Xiao, do you still need a long time to examine the bodies?" She asked while yawning.
Seeing her sleepy look, Xiao Shao stood up and said, "Let’s go back. We must leave this place immediately."
When Xu Xiang heard his words, she looked at him. She tilted her head and asked, "Why? It’s hard to find a good place to spend the night. Besides, it’s almost dawn. We can go after breakfast."
He looked at her seriously and shook his head. "We have to go now. These people were members of the bandit gang. Their members are criminals exiled from their country. For these people, killing is a hobby and there is nothing they won’t do."
As soon as he finished speaking, her drowsiness disappeared instantly. She got up and said, "Let’s go."
He watched her carefully as they walked back to the cave. But the more he observed her, the harder it was for him to understand her. Stepping into the cave, he begins to doubt his guesses about her true identity.
