I Am Loaded with Passive Skills

“Gurgle.”

After Xu Xiaoshou swallowed the last bit of cooked beef, he got up while sucking his fingers.

“Tiansang Spirit Palace, Xu Xiaoshou.”

He graciously reached his hand out.

Fu Yinhong’s eyelids twitched wildly, realizing that he could hear her.

But…

Seeing the hand full of grease and the disgusting dark sauce on it, she couldn’t shake it.

Cursed, passive point, 1.

Xu Xiaoshou seemed to have realized that his hand was full of grease. He hastened to pick up a tissue to wipe it and tapped Aje’s head, who was at his side.

“Where are your manners? Greet her!”

“Ma Ma.” It was a puzzling greeting.

Fu Yinhong didn’t know what to think.

She was even more confused.

“Cough, cough. Sorry, this guy only knows to say that.” Xu Xiaoshou pulled Aje back to prevent it from suddenly striking.

He turned his head around and shouted, “Boss, bring the two packed meals quickly! My little sister is waiting for me!”

Fu Yinhong narrowed her pretty eyes. Although she hadn’t asked any questions yet, she had been observing the whole time.

Innate Stage, Tiansang Spirit Palace, junior sister…

“Phew, it shouldn’t be him,” she thought.

“Tell us everything you know,” Fu Yinhong inquired dutifully, her pretty face returning to the cold expression.

Xu Xiaoshou calmly said, “Two men fought here. One of them is dead, and the other left.”

“Is that it?”

“Yeah!”

Fu Yinhong was still confused.

Cursed, passive point, 1.

“Tell me in more detail!”

“What I said is already quite clear.”

Xu Xiaoshou opened his mouth wide and asked in surprise, “Haven’t you seen the big black lotus flower? So, I do not need to say more.”

“If you want me to tell you in more detail…”

He turned his head around and yelled, “Boss, warm another jar of wine! I’ll have a chat with this woman!”

Fu Yinhong gritted her teeth noisily. It was the first time she had seen someone who was so reckless.

“Do you know who is standing in front of you?”

“The City Guards?”

Xu Xiaoshou looked her up and down a few times and doubtfully said, “I’ve just come down from the Spirit Palace, and I don’t know what level the City Guards of Tiansang City are. But…”

“Not to mention that you have interrupted my meal, I have answered your questions truthfully. If you still want to threaten me with your status, do you really think that the Tiansang Spirit Palace is easy to bully?”

The young man looked a little more arrogant. His chin was slightly raised, and his eyes were full of disdain.

Fu Yinhong found she couldn’t refute him.

She thought, “Well, as a matter of fact, I’m bullying him a bit.”

“But…”

“I feel that something is wrong with this whole situation.”

She felt something was wrong, but she couldn’t tell what was wrong. Looking at the young man in front of her, she knew something was odd.

“People were killing each other in front of you, so how could you still sit and eat?” Fu Yinhong felt it was a little absurd.

Xu Xiaoshou opened his eyes so wide that his eyes almost popped out.

“There are tables and chairs here. If I don’t sit and eat, do you expect me to stand?”

“If I shouldn’t stand, do you want me to lie down?”

“Well, do you think the City Guards are so powerful that you can regulate people’s postures while they are eating? Do you want me to get down when I talk to you now?”

“Come on, let’s do it together.”

Xu Xiaoshou made a gesture to get down to the ground. Fu Yinhong felt extremely irritable at the moment.

She thought, “This lad is very vicious. What I meant was… Well, what did I mean?”

“I didn’t mean that,” she said.

“You didn’t mean it?”

Xu Xiaoshou raised his voice and demanded furiously, “If you didn’t mean it, what did you mean? What is your meaning? Can you explain it to me?”

Fu Yinhong was shocked.

“What?”

Xu Xiaoshou patted his chest and confidently asked, “Do you think that the earlier blast is something that I, someone in the early stage of Origin Court, can accomplish?”

“Or do you think that I have the innate ability to kill a master?”

“Or…”

He pointed at Aje beside him and roared louder and louder. “Do you think that it is this kid who killed someone with a slap?”

Ka! Ka!

Fu Yinhong clenched her fists tightly with a pale face. Her bones made cracking sounds. She almost gritted her teeth to pieces.

“It is impossible,” she thought.

“But can you watch your tone of voice?”

“The person standing in front of you is the vice commander of the City Guards, Fu Yinhong!”

Seeing the woman on the verge of losing her temper, Xu Xiaoshou took a step back. His expression returned to calmness. His face showed a slight apologetic hint.

“I’m sorry. I’m an impulsive person. If I have offended you, please forgive me.”

“You are the master of the City Guards. I believe that you will forgive me, right?”

He tapped Aje on the head. “Apologize!”

“Ma Ma.”

Fu Yinhong felt pain in her liver, kidneys, and throughout her body.

What kind of a person was this guy? He said all sorts of bad and good words. What did he expect her to say now?

She intended to inquire about the crime scene, but Xu Xiaoshou had almost told her everything she needed to know, even though he had spoken rudely.

She needed more details.

She didn’t have time for that, and she didn’t have the intention to sit down and drink with this young man.

Yet, if this lad was a suspected murderer…

And if words could kill, those at Throne Stage were probably no match for him. However, judging by his cultivation level…

Just this level?

With such a low cultivation level, why did he dare to sit there and eat?

“Do you still not believe me?”

Xu Xiaoshou was speechless and sat down again. He poured a glass of wine for her and said while knocking on the table, “If you still do not believe me, you can ask the tavern owner.”

“But if you delay any longer, I’m afraid you won’t even find the shadow of the killer.”

Fu Yinhong frowned. “Where did the killer go?”

Xu Xiaoshou gave a low laugh. “If I dare tell you, will you dare believe me?”

He pointed in the direction of the black street. “You ask the group out there and find out who knows. Then, you come back here to ask me, a beginner in the Innate Stage!”

Fu Yinhong looked toward the black street and saw that the site was basically forbidden to the pedestrians, and the City Guards were interrogating everyone.

A black and red figure landed by the woman and said a few words to her ear. Fu Yinhong finally felt relieved.

“Illusionary array?”

“It seems that this lad was forced to stay here. He was trapped in this place.”

“Well, to encounter such an incident, he might have died faster if he chose to run away and get involved. The only option was to stay put.”

“I can’t believe that he could still eat in such a situation.”

The tavern owner came out trembling, holding a jar of warm wine and packed beef meals.

Fu Yinhong opened her red lips slightly, thinking that the owner might provide her with a breakthrough.

“Little brother, your beef meals and wine.”

“It’s not my wine. It’s for her, my treat!”

Xu Xiaoshou took out a spirit crystal and set it on the table, saying, “I have no other money. Just take this spirit crystal!”

The owner was stunned, wondering why he had paid twice.

He suddenly realized that the lad wanted him to do something with the spirit crystal he paid with earlier.

“No, no, the meals and wines are on me.”

The tavern owner tried his hardest to smile in an attempt to cooperate with Xu Xiaoshou. Yet, he still couldn’t manage to conceal the terrified expression on his face.

However, Fu Yinhong nodded her head covertly.

“That’s right,” she thought.

“After seeing that kind of a battle, how could this old man not be scared at all?”

“If he is really not scared, and the young man who sat and watched the battle is not scared in the least, I can bet that you two are staging a show together!”

“In that case, they must have colluded beforehand!”

“It seems that I have thought too much.”

“As for the old man’s fright, was it a part of the young man’s plan?” Fu Yinhong considered this and wondered if it was possible.

“Well, he is merely an Innate.”
