The young man's lips moved, as if he was saying something, but his voice was so low that it was difficult to hear clearly. Yu Ling frowned slightly and couldn't help but get a little closer.

"This time... is just the beginning, far from... the end." The young man spat out a sentence with great effort. It seemed that he was not far from death, but at this moment, his right hand suddenly raised, and a blue-light sleeve arrow shot straight.

Xiang Yuling's heart.

Yu Ling had been on guard against him for a long time, and was not surprised at this moment. She dodged with a slight deviation of her body. In terms of reaction speed alone, I am afraid that the Tongxuan Realm masters are not as good as him, so how could someone easily plot against him.

"It seems that you don't intend to talk properly. If that's the case, I won't let you die too happily." There was a deep chill in Yu Ling's words, but before he finished speaking, a trace of darkness overflowed from the corner of the young man's mouth.

Blood, head tilted and breathless.

Yu Ling looked at the corpse in front of her, her eyes as bright as a candle in the wind, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Nian Yubai's lazy expression rarely became serious. Everything happened too fast just now. From the time the young man suddenly attacked the killer to Yu Ling subduing him, it took less than a second. By the time he reacted, Yu Ling was already asking

It was difficult for him to interrupt, but this young man was obviously a carefully trained killer. If he failed in the mission, he would die, which made people feel chilly.

"What...what's going on?" Zhou Sheng and Xu Mingyuan were dumbfounded, not knowing what was going on.

Yu Ling didn't answer because he couldn't figure it out himself. He just squatted down slowly and carefully inspected the young man's body from top to bottom. As he expected, the young man's body was very clean, except for the dagger and sleeve arrows.

There is nothing superfluous. Obviously the other party is also a veteran and will not leave any evidence behind.

Yu Ling picked up the dagger and the sleeve arrows, looked at them, and finally put them down helplessly. These two spiritual weapons were also commercially available, and even the poison on the sleeve arrows was of an ordinary type. He could not get any useful information from them.

Nian Yubai looked at Yu Ling's movements thoughtfully, and suddenly made a gesture to the dark. Then a man in linen clothes walked out of the corner, frowned and asked: "What's the matter?"

Nian Yubai looked at him and said: "Since Jiu Ming Pavilion sent you to protect us, why didn't you take action just now? My friend was almost assassinated." The man in linen clothes looked at the corpse on the ground and frowned deeper: "

Although this man only has the strength of the late stage of nourishing qi, his concealment method is really good. Before he took action, I just regarded him as an ordinary person. By the time I reacted, the battle was over."

"You can actually hide it from the powerful Huazun?" Nian Yubai pondered for a moment and took out a piece of middle-grade divine jade: "Please help me find out from Jiu Ming Pavilion where this person came from. The more detailed the information, the better. If you encounter trouble,

Please inform me in time."

Seeing Nian Yubai's generous move, the man in sackcloth couldn't help but his eyelids twitched. Even if he sold the powerful Huazun, it might not be worth a piece of middle-grade divine jade. His expression suddenly softened a lot, and he nodded and said: "

Even if you don't tell us, we will investigate carefully. Who dares to touch the people protected by our Jiu Ming Pavilion? I don't know which force is so reckless."

"Okay." Nian Yubai just responded, and Yu Ling added: "Remember to dispose of the body after the investigation."

The man in linen clothes couldn't help but be startled: "Why is this?" Yu Ling's face did not have any extra emotions, and she said calmly: "I don't want others to see anything."

There was already a vague guess in his mind. This confrontation looked like an assassination, but Yu Ling felt that it was more like a test. With such a superb concealment method, the power behind the young man must not be simple, at least

It is also a behemoth with a powerful Huazun guarding it. If you really want to kill him, why send such a weak killer. If today's person is replaced by a Tongxuan realm cultivator, the outcome will be difficult to predict.

This can only mean that someone is secretly eyeing him and wants to know his specific strength. The more this happens, the more Yu Ling has to hide himself. These people are sneaky and must have no good intentions.

The only thing I can't figure out is...who wants to deal with him? He has only been in Canglan Province for a short time and has not provoked any opponents. Nanming Province has long been unified by him, and no one else knows that he is the leader of the Daoling Sect. Could it be?

Did the Yu family hear any rumors? But if it is really Yu Miao, with his style, if he doesn't take action, he will definitely use all his strength to kill him if he does, and he will not just stay at the level of temptation.

Yu Ling couldn't figure it out, but at this moment, he suddenly remembered that the man in black who spied on him last night, could it be... related to him?

Thinking of what the young man said before he died, "This is just the beginning, it is far from over." Yu Ling felt his heart heavy. He was not afraid of fighting with open swords and guns, but was afraid of the enemies hidden in the dark, especially...he was not

Know the purpose of these people.

"Forget it, it's no longer safe on the streets. Let's find a place to live in the academy." Nian Yubai glanced at Yu Ling worriedly and finally said.

"I'll send you there." The man in sackcloth stopped hiding in the dark and simply went to the academy with everyone. He also neglected his duties this time. Fortunately, Yu Ling reacted quickly, otherwise it would be hard to say what the outcome would be.

"Take this body back and be quick with your movements. If something goes wrong, just be careful." The man in linen crushed a piece of jade, and a moment later three Tongxuan realm masters appeared in front of him. He probably explained what had just happened.

He read it once and gave instructions at the same time.

"Yes, sir!" The three of them were extremely honest in front of the powerful master. They responded respectfully, put the body into the spiritual ring and hurriedly left here.

Yu Ling looked at the backs of the three people leaving, and suddenly felt uneasy for some reason.

…

In the quiet streets, three Tongxuan realm masters walked hurriedly, occasionally talking to each other. Suddenly, the wind started blowing in the quiet streets. When the breeze blew past the three of them, they stopped involuntarily.

His eyes became confused and empty.

Two figures walked slowly from the other end of the street. One of them was dressed in luxurious purple clothes, but his face was covered by a black cloak. The other was a middle-aged man in black with cold eyes. Looking at his face, he looked serious.

It's the mysterious strong man who observed Yu Ling last night!

"Hand over the corpse just now." The man in purple cloak slowly walked to the three of them and whispered softly. One of the Tongxuan realm masters had dull and confused eyes. When he touched the spiritual ring, the figure who had just been killed appeared on the ground.

The body of the young man.

The middle-aged man in black leaned over and took a closer look, stretched out his hand and pressed it on the boy's chest, and then pressed his wasted right arm. Finally, he stood up and concluded: "The target's spiritual power is indeed in the late stage of nourishing qi.

But the level of purity is comparable to that of a cultivator at the peak of Qi Yang or even the Tongxuan realm. Moreover, the target did not use spiritual power when he disabled the No. 7 arm. Based on the strength, the target should still be an ancient warrior at the peak of muscle strength."

The man in purple cloak nodded slightly and added: "No. 7's soul had suffered heavy damage before his death. From this point of view, the target must be a Holy Soul Master in the Heavenly Spirit Realm, either in the middle or late stage."

"Interesting, I have met many fellow cultivators of the three major systems, but this is the first time I have met a genius who has achieved some success in cultivation at the same time." The middle-aged man in black smiled, but there was no trace of emotion in his smile.

A hint of warmth.

The man in purple cloak also chuckled and said: "And you did a preliminary test last night, and the target found out the clues. This kind of keen perception has nothing to do with soul power. It seems that the target also has the real ability honed between life and death.

genius."

"Then put him on the list for further observation in the future." The middle-aged man in black came to a conclusion. "That's fine, now that he has entered the academy, many things will be inconvenient. But there will be many opportunities in the future, so it doesn't matter.

Urgent." The man in purple cloak nodded, looked at the three Tongxuan realm masters, and said calmly: "Take the body back, you continue."
