Chapter 1101: Bounty hunter


Late into the night, it became quiet in the vast Sorcerer’s Tower. The maids had returned to their quarters, leaving only a few of them behind in the standby room in case their sorcerer-master summoned them.


They would only start working again at 6 o’clock the next morning, Their first task would be to present a clean set of clothes to their sorcerer-master. If he needed to attend an event for the day, they would have to prepare several sets of clothes as alternates.


Then they would prepare a sumptuous breakfast that might include soy milk, dairy milk, steamed buns, fried dough sticks, and so on.


Initially, Ren Xiaosu was worried he would not get used to the food here after arriving at the Kingdom of Sorcerers. But in the end, he realized he had overthought things. Food preference was probably the last thing he needed to worry about in this place.


Right now, with everything quiet in the Sorcerer’s Tower, Ren Xiaosu, who was lying on the velvet bed, suddenly opened his eyes and shot out of the window like an arrow.


He was staying on the fourth floor of the Sorcerer’s Tower. If the Sorcerer’s Tower were to be described as a castle, he would be situated on the topmost floor of the castle’s structural foundation, and above that was the turret.


The exterior of the tower was lined with uneven brick, and Ren Xiaosu used his strong fingers to grip the handholds between them as he climbed up. In the dark of the night, no one noticed someone was actually performing the dangerous activity of free solo climbing here.


Ren Xiaosu climbed upwards silently. Meanwhile, somewhere higher, a black figure was sliding down a rope in the opposite direction of Ren Xiaosu.


“Old Xu,” who had been hiding in the shadows of the tower’s cupola, already saw everything that was happening. Since the prey came, the hunter had no reason to let it go.


However, this bounty hunter was much more alert than expected. Before Ren Xiaosu could get close, the bounty hunter had already noticed the commotion below.


The bounty hunter sneered at Ren Xiaosu and kicked off from the wall with both feet, fleeing in the air with kite-like grace.


In fact, these bounty hunters were indeed much more alert than normal people. Furthermore, they seemed to especially like carrying out sneak attacks and a.s.sa.s.sinations from the shadows. Once they discovered the situation was not right, they would flee far away without any hesitation.


It was the same for the bounty hunter he encountered previously.


The current bounty hunter was holding an orange Eye of True Sight in his hand. It was unknown what kind of sorcery he was using to stay in the air for such a long time, but it was extremely weird to see him flying and gliding in midair.


However, Ren Xiaosu knew full well that this was not true flight.


‘When the bounty hunter “flew” away, the knights outside guarding the Sorcerer’s Tower seemed to have noticed something. But by the time they looked up at the sky, the bounty hunter had already fled far away.


The kights shook their heads and thought it might have just been the wind, so they did not suspect anything further. After all, everything was still quiet inside the Sorcerer’s Tower.


Ren Xiaosu revealed a smile as he watched the bounty hunter gradually get farther away.


Naturally, the other party was able to discover him only because he had allowed it. Otherwise, if it were Old Xu that took action, there would not be many sorcerers in the world who could avoid Old Xu’s sneak attack. This applied even to the Central Plains’ superhumans.


In terms of a.s.sa.s.sination, Ren Xiaosu was truly a top expert in the field. Otherwise, would the Zhou Consortium fear him so much?


Of course, his methods might not be particularly stealthy.


But as long as the outcome was the same, the process was not too important.


Ren Xiaosu glanced at the knights guarding the Sorcerer’s Tower before leaping off towards the other residential buildings’ roofs in the distance with Old Xu following close behind.


He could not make his move here. He could not let outsiders know he wanted to steal a sorcerer’s Eye of True Sight, or it would probably cause the entire magus order to target him.


‘When Ren Xiaosu landed lightly on a roof, he did not even stabilize himself before exerting more strength through his feet and propelling himself forward again. It was as though he were carrying a nitrous oxide propulsion device on him. If anyone were to see this, they would probably start questioning


what they had learned about physics over the years.


The physical fitness levels of people like Ren Xiaosu were no longer bound by the laws of Newton. That would have to be left to his younger brother, Twoton.


‘The bounty hunter in front of him gradually descended from midair. He quickly jumped across the low roofs, thinking he should have successfully shaken off the pursuit.


But when the bounty hunter turned around, he was surprised to see Ren Xiaosu smiling at him from not far behind.


‘The bounty hunter was shocked. He was inwardly surprised at how the young man had even caught up to him. Furthermore, he did not make any noise. He was like a ghost!


However, there was no time for him to think so much. Under such circ.u.mstances, he could only cast another spell to increase his speed.


Suddenly, the bounty hunter was enveloped by a swirling wind. His flighty steps were as light as a swan’s, and every step he took was a leap of a dozen meters!


But after he increased his speed, he turned around and was surprised to find he was still unable to shake off the young man behind him. Furthermore, the young man’s smile remained unchanged as though he were extremely laid back.


At this moment, the bounty hunter understood the young man in pursuit was much faster than him. The reason why he did not make a move on him was that he wanted to force him out of the city.


The bounty hunter sneered mentally, ‘It looks like you don’t wish to be discovered either, right?


Thinking of this, he suddenly rushed to the left. At the same time, the Eye of True Sight in his hand glowed, and a sudden ball of raging flames shot down towards a stable.


The stable had a thatched roof, so just a slight spark would set it ablaze, let alone the bounty hunter casting a fireball at it.


Allof a sudden, dancing flames rose into the air, and the horses in the stable started neighing loudly. They even trotted anxiously forward in an attempt to break out of their reins.


The horses’ reins were tied to the heavy wooden pillars in the stable. As the horses continued struggling, the entire stable collapsed.


This commotion woke up the city’s residents. Someone started shouting, “Put out the fire! Put out the fire!”


“Go fetch water from the well!”


During this time, some people also saw figures flit across roofs and shouted that someone had committed arson.


The bounty hunter felt a little more at ease when he heard that. This way, he could probably delay the enemy behind him as much as possible.


But before he could fully breathe a sigh of relief, he spun around and saw the young man behind him was still calmly in close pursuit!


Honestly, Ren Xiaosu really did not appear fl.u.s.tered at all. A big prize like the orange Eye of True Sight was right in front of him, so how could he possibly give up chasing just like that?


Moreover, with his speed, it was impossible that the residents in the city would make out his appearance.


‘The bounty hunter started panicking. He thought for a moment before finally stopping on the roof of an abandoned warehouse and turning around to face Ren Xiaosu.


‘When he stopped, Ren Xiaosu also stopped. They stared at each other from a distance.


The bounty hunter said coldly, “Are you that sorcerer’s servant?”


Ren Xiaosu laughed and said, “It’s ‘steward.’ Don’t demote me as you like. I’m different from the sheeple.”


The bounty hunter was puzzled. “Sheeple?!”


‘The bounty hunter was very confused and could not understand what Ren Xiaosu was saying.


Meanwhile, Ren Xiaosu was also deeply puzzled. That was because the other party’s voice clearly belonged to a young woman…
