A moment later, the corpse let out a 'ssst' sound, followed by a puff of white smoke and a foul smell that seeped into the air.
After a few breaths, Bai Zhi's corpse disappeared without a trace.

After she finished handling Bai Zhi's body, Hexi turned to leave when suddenly, from behind her, she heard******* quietly. “Boy cruel baby! Even such cruel torture is not enough, you even go and destroy that person's body, wiping out all traces of it. Haha, but whatever, let me see a good show.”
Hexi suddenly trembled, then quickly turned around.
But as soon as he turned around, it turned out that there was no one there, it was just an empty alley. Even the shadow of a person was invisible, yet he clearly heard someone's voice. Moreover, even though he released his spiritual power and Divine Sense with all his might, he could not sense the slightest bit of the other party's existence.
How could this possibly happen?! Even if it was Nangong Yu standing in the shadows, his extremely perceptive consciousness would be able to sense it! In the end, how strong was this person?!
Hexi became frightened, yet on the surface she still looked calm. With his eyes closely observing his surroundings, he coldly shouted, “Who are you? A person who hides his head and only shows his tail while peeking at others, is that good behavior?”
The sound of laughter suddenly resounded throughout the empty alley, and this time because Hexi was listening carefully, she discovered that it was the voice of a man. Moreover, it was the voice of an old man.
While Hexi was still confused, a body figure suddenly appeared before him just like that.
It was an old man dressed in tatters with disheveled hair and a dirty appearance. As an indescribable stench smelled from his body, he examined Hexi and laughed. Standing in the alley, he occasionally gulped down a broken bottle of gourd in one of his hands.
An old beggar like this could be said to be a common sight on this road. If he were to hang out with other beggars lying on the piled ground at night, no one would be able to detect any abnormalities.
Because, even with his extraordinary abilities and how he could easily determine the rank of Nangong Yu, he was simply unable to determine the rank of the old beggar man before his eyes.
And this old beggar man, not only could follow him without him noticing, but he also managed to see his disguise as a man with just a glance.
What made Hexi even more worried was that after Dandan noticed the beggar old man, he continued to shout at him frantically from his place. “Mother, I'm scared!” Then hide in the Firmament Spirit Palace and don't dare to go out!
Dandan's fear, coupled with how he still could not sense any fluctuations of spiritual power coming from the old beggar's body, was, it could only prove that the rank of the old beggar man was higher than his.
But, a Hexi character always prefers to break rather than bow. Even if he were to face a strong opponent who would end up fighting to the death, he would never choose to retreat and show weakness.
Therefore, after being shocked for a moment, he then coldly asked, “Who are you so you came to fight for justice for him, are you the female partner?”
“Baby Doll, you look so pretty, but how can your eyesight be so bad? Does this old man look like that female couple?!” Hearing his question, the beggar old man became angry. As he jumped up and down and pointed towards Hexi while scolding her, he simply did not possess the calmness and subtlety of a true man.
If Hexi had not known in advance that he was a high-level expert, he would have seriously thought that this was just a crazy old man.
Hexi sneered. “Speeking from the shadows, following someone, and saying bad things behind someone; those things are not considered good behavior, right?”
The old man choked, his beard fluttering in the air as he replied, “This old man is clearly an honorable and moral person, how could this be considered as a peek?! That's you, Baby Doll's ability isn't good! Just because you can't find the whereabouts of this old man.Why should you blame me?!”
Hexi was too lazy to notice this old beggar-looking troublemaker again. Since he had no hatred for her, then he would not have to argue with her anymore.
