"I disregarded Bei Yan Yunyi's expression and spoke eloquently, "If Shi Fei Daoren really has a secret relationship with Jing Henyun, wouldn't he be biased towards you?"

"Let's not talk about anything else, just the conditions he proposed, aren't they only beneficial to you?"

"If I don't ask things clearly beforehand, am I supposed to wait until something happens and then regret it?"

Before Bei Yan Yunyi could argue, I turned to Shi Fei Daoren again, "Daoye, you better not play silent with me."

"If you don't answer my question directly, I'll withdraw from this competition immediately."

"Don't forget, the map to Xianyang River is in my hands. If I want to quit, none of you get to play."

The muscles on Shi Fei Daoren's face twitched a few times, "Don't you want to go to Xianyang River?"

I chuckled, "I do, but I'm not in a rush. There's nothing there that I absolutely must have. It wouldn't hurt for me to go in ten or eight years."

"Daoye, to put it bluntly, when someone is risking their life to fight for victory, and they encounter the opponent's stepfather as the referee, wouldn't they have some doubts in their mind?"

Shi Fei Daoren clenched his fists tightly, "I don't have a secret relationship with Jing Henyun, but we have had physical contact. As for the reason, can you not ask?"

"I can!" I nodded. "Then how do you guarantee the fairness of this competition?"

Shi Fei Daoren said coldly, "Isn't my identity as a disciple of the Bu Shen lineage enough? Or is the Xiezhi divine position on my body fake?"

I shook my head, "Those can only guarantee that you won't tell lies, but they can't guarantee that you won't use the truth to deceive people. I've already experienced Daoye's methods."

"I think it's better if you also make a vow."

"If I, this poor Daoist, am even the slightest bit unfair in this judgment, may this be the result!" Shi Fei Daoren stretched out his left hand, formed his right hand into a knife-like gesture, and slashed it fiercely at his left little finger. His left little finger fell off in response.

Shi Fei Daoren looked at my face, pale, "Hall Master Li, are you satisfied now?"

I clapped my hands lightly, "Daoye has vowed by severing his finger, what else can I not trust?"

Shi Fei Daoren's face became extremely ugly. He knew very well that my short sentence was equivalent to moving the battlefield outside of the competition.

Xia Zhou knew the relationship between the Bei Yan siblings and Jing Henyun, but the Reincarnation Division might not be clear about this.

With the Reincarnation Division's vast network of contacts, it wouldn't be difficult for them to do other things on the outside.

Xia Zhou could also use the relationship between Shi Fei Daoren and the Bei Yan siblings to make other moves.

I had made the originally relatively simple competition complicated.

Shi Fei Daoren took a deep breath and said, "Choose the four prisoners outside yourselves. We will officially set off in one hour."

"To ensure the fairness of this competition, I will issue you yamen runner credentials. This way, you won't be considered people from the Six Doors."

"Go prepare yourselves!"

The constables in ordinary ancient county yamen were also included among the yamen runners, belonging to the "Quick Squad," one of the three shifts of yamen runners. Although the yamen runners wore official uniforms, they were not part of the imperial court's establishment. Generally, the county magistrate himself would pay to support the three shifts of yamen runners.

However, the Six Doors were an exception. All the constables in the Six Doors held official positions, and their ranks were not low. Yamen runners, however, were still not part of the formal establishment. In the Six Doors, constables were higher in status than yamen runners.

Escorting prisoners was the job of yamen runners in ordinary county yamen.

Shi Fei Daoren giving us the identity of yamen runners was actually good enough.

The four of us discussed it, and finally decided to draw lots to determine who would escort which prisoner.

I drew the Heaven-ranked prisoner.

When I first saw the Heaven-ranked prisoner, I couldn't help but wonder if Shi Fei Daoren had arrested the wrong person. Because the woman sitting quietly in the prison cell didn't look like a vicious criminal at all.

Looking at her was like looking at a painting, making one unconsciously want to calm down and appreciate the beauty, the scenery before one's eyes!

As I was looking at her, Feng Ruoxing let out a low cry, "Fairy in the Painting, Ren Xiaotao."

I turned to look at Feng Ruoxing, "You know her?"

An unprecedented solemnity appeared in Feng Ruoxing's eyes, "I've seen her once!"

"That time, I was leading people to do business."

"If I hadn't taken the wrong road and let another group of Yang Jian Jie Ming Ren run into Ren Xiaotao one step ahead, the people who died that time would probably have been me."

Feng Ruoxing said, "Ren Xiaotao has killed countless people, but no one has ever seen her kill anyone."

"Every time someone encounters her, she is sitting among a ground full of corpses."

"The most she's been surrounded by was over a hundred corpses."

"According to Ren Xiaotao, she accidentally passed by the places where those people were lying dead."

"However, once is a coincidence, twice can also be said to be a coincidence, but is ten or eight times still a coincidence?"

"Fairy in the Painting, Ren Xiaotao, has become one of the people in the martial world who must not be provoked."

Ren Xiaotao smiled and said, "I said, I really do just happen to appear every time, do you believe me?"

"I know, none of you will believe me."

"You're here to take me away, right? I heard what you said. You're going to send me to the place of exile. Maybe, if I go there, there won't be so many coincidences anymore, right?"
