Kill Me More Times, I’ll Become Invincible

Chapter 51:

Outside Yan City, in the mountains, there was a temporary mountain stronghold.

Qiao Mu carefully placed his body in a coffin, without rushing to say goodbye. Instead, he chatted with Wang Songhe about Guo Yan for a bit.

When Qiao Mu mentioned his plan to kill Guo Yan in a few days, he wasn’t just saying it casually.

In a few days, he would have the chance to resurrect himself five times. With his current power at the peak of the 7th rank, he believed he would have no problem defeating a wounded City Lord Guo Yan in a one-on-one fight.

If there was any problem, he could always continue on with another life!

Although that’s what he said.

There was only one chance to storm the City Lord’s Manor. If they failed last time, there would be no second chance.

Last time, before Qiao Mu died, he delivered a final blow to an ordinary servant. He already anticipated this and knew it couldn’t happen again.

After the lord’s mansion was alerted by disturbing the grass, it would definitely be heavily guarded in the short term. If you want to forcefully break into the lord’s mansion, you will only end up being besieged to death like last time.

Since it would be difficult for Qiao Mu to kill Guo Yan by his own strength, perhaps another method can be found.

For example, the leader of these bandits, Wang Songhe.

This is not casting blame on Wang Songhe, because as a bandit, Wang Songhe is naturally opposed to Yan City’s City Lord Guo Yan.

So, Qiao Mu looked at Wang Songhe with determined and earnest eyes.

"Brother Wang, Guo Yan and his father have been tormenting the people in Yan City for a long time. Although my son is dead, Guo Yan is still alive."

"My son mentioned to me before that many of your bandits are actually refugees who escaped from Yan City, right? Are you willing to continue watching Yan City deteriorate?"

"A true man should not hide in the mountains and forests. He should accomplish something and live without regrets. Brother Wang, even though you are known as a bandit, your heart encompasses the world. Would you be willing to leave the mountains with me and achieve something great together?"

Wang Songhe：？

Let’s not talk about whether this "Qiao Sen" is a bit presumptuous.

After all, Wang Songhe himself, previously also approached Qiao Lin as soon as they met… and this line is also a bit familiar.

"Brother Qiao Sen has good judgment. You saw right away that I have ambitious goals and I’m not just an ordinary bandit."

Wang Songhe pondered for a moment.

He and Yan City City Lord Guo Yan were enemies to begin with. In the past, both sides injured each other, which was actually intentional on Wang Songhe’s part.

He was skilled in medicine and confident he could recover faster than Guo Yan. After his injuries healed, if he wished, he could also try to eliminate Guo Yan.

"Dealing with Guo Yan’s matter requires careful consideration, but we should not forcefully invade the City Lord’s mansion," Wang Songhe said slowly.

He had a group of mountain men behind him, so even though he was involved in rebellion, he was cautious in his thinking and would not immediately agree.

In comparison, Qiao Mu is more reckless than him.

"Then you take your time to think. If you make up your mind, you can come find me."

Qiao Mu quickly bid farewell with his own corpse.

If Wang Songhe refuses, he won’t force it. He will seek revenge in his own way.

But now, instead of killing City Lord Guo Yan, Qiao Mu has something more important to do.

Qiao Canxue.

The karma between Qiao Mu and Old Huang has been settled, but there is still unfinished business with Qiao Canxue.

Before Qiao Mu left, Qiao Canxue gave him the final secret technique book, trying to persuade him not to be enemies with the City Lord’s Mansion anymore and to leave Yan City with her… At that time, Qiao Mu agreed on the surface to appease Qiao Canxue.

Qiao Mu shamelessly accepted the book "Ripple Stacking Wave Strength" and secretly arranged for Qiao Canxue to leave the city, agreeing to meet again in a small town outside Yan City. – This was only a temporary solution to help Qiao Canxue leave Yan City.

Because Wang Songhe took care of Qiao Mu for several days, this incident also caused a delay of several days. I wonder what the situation is like on Qiao Canxue’s side now.

……………

Panshan Town is a relatively remote town outside Yan City.

The town is located in a remote area, close to the mountains, and many villagers are hunters.

However, recently, an extraordinary storyteller came to the tea house in the town, and the business became very prosperous.

Common storytellers dress in long robes, like scholars, but this storyteller wears a green robe and carries a sword, like a swordsman.

This sword-carrying storyteller is about thirty years old and has sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. He has an extraordinary appearance.

Every time he tells stories, at least half of the tea house is filled with audience members, both men and women.

However, male customers often cheer for the stories told by this storyteller, while female customers often gaze at the handsome face of the storyteller, thinking that his stories might be true and he could be a traveler with interesting experiences.

"After catching the City Lord’s son, Qiao Lin didn’t demand money, jewels, or high rank. He only asked for fairness."

"The City Lord refused to believe and secretly called for his servants and sent the city guards to surround Qiao Lin from inside and outside."

"But Qiao Lin remained fearless in the face of danger and publicly denounced the sins of the City Lord and his son."

"Instead of being intimidated by the City Lord’s threats to his life, Qiao Lin boldly laughed and said, ‘I only hate the wicked who take lives for their own pleasure. I only yearn to show my true spirit. I only fear not dying with honor!’"

"Finishing his words, Qiao Lin thrust his long spear forward, piercing the wicked man’s heart!"

"The City Lord mistakenly thought Qiao Lin had a demand for him and was using someone as leverage. Little did he know that all Qiao Lin wanted was justice…"

The narrator of the story spoke with great enthusiasm, and the audience applauded and cheered.

Only a mysterious figure wearing a hat in the corner trembled slightly.

"Wow, was I really that handsome?" Qiao Mu exclaimed.

He carefully remembered the scene at that time and gave a good rating to the storyteller with the familiar sword on the stage.

The meeting point for Qiao Mu and Qiao Canxue was right here in Panshan Town.

Just arrived in this small town, he accidentally heard that there was a storyteller telling the story of the brave Qiao brothers from Yan City, so he came in.

At the beginning, when he heard the storyteller telling his own story, Qiao Mu’s feeling can be summed up in three words.

Awkward! Awkward! Awkward!

He felt so awkward that he got goosebumps all over his body.

At that moment, he almost rushed up to cover the storyteller’s mouth.

However, as he continued to listen, he unknowingly became more and more absorbed.

After the awkwardness passed, there was a indescribable feeling of relief.

"Is this the feeling of showing off?" Qiao Mu realized.

It is widely known that showing off is a basic human need.

People are like iron, showing off is like steel, can’t go a day without showing off.

No, can’t say showing off, too vulgar!

While listening to the storyteller and seeing the amazed and admiring expressions of the tea drinkers around him, Qiao Mu unknowingly developed a bit of idol burden.

It should be called "looking saintly in front of others".

Showing off is vulgar, looking saintly in front of others is elegant.

Qiao Mu started to seriously think about a question.

"When I assassinate Guo Yan in a few days, how should I…how can I look more saintly in front of others?"

Qiao Mu wanted to improve his Death Assessment, not just show off in front of people.

While deep in thought, he suddenly spotted an elderly blind woman with closed eyes at the entrance of the tea house.
