And this is also the reason why Shen Lian did not directly reject Tianquan just now.

Even though both parties know that the other party's goal in this cooperation may be to include themselves in it, but because Shen Lian and Tianquan are both bold people, they are not afraid and are looking forward to what happens next. things.

Zhang He looked at Shen Lian and asked: "Master Shen really wants to join forces with Tianquan?"

Shen Lian chuckled: "He has already issued a challenge, so I naturally want to accept it."

"War letter?"

Zhang He was stunned.

Didn't Tianquan seek help from Lord Shen to join forces?

Why is Master Shen talking about a letter of war?

Aren't the contents of what they heard different?

Seeing Zhang He's confused look, Shen Lian smiled and shook his head without explaining.

After all, Zhang He's understanding of Tianquan is still limited, and he doesn't know the tacit understanding between Tianquan and himself.

Joining forces is true.

Because they all have to deal with Beichen and Beidou Society!

But the letter of challenge is even more true.

Because they still want to compete, they want to include each other in their calculations.

Therefore, this kind of cooperation between enemies and friends is even more interesting!

This is far more exciting for Shen Lian than simply scheming against each other.

Shen Lian raised his head and glanced at the sky, only to see stars twinkling in the dark sky.

The Ziwei star shines brightly, and the surrounding stars are also competing for their glory...

"It's almost here, the time is coming."

Shen Lian whispered to himself, then withdrew his gaze and said: "Okay, you should go and do your work. Keep an eye on the Japanese envoy. Maybe in the future, he will be the key to breaking the situation. At most, everything will be over in half a month, so this paragraph Time, work harder."

Zhang He nodded hurriedly: "Don't worry, sir, the Japanese envoy will be handed over to my subordinates. I promise that within this half month, I will never let the Japanese envoy leave my sight for a moment."

Shen Lian smiled: "Go ahead."

With a flick of the brush, Zhang He disappeared instantly.

Zhang He has mastered the stealth methods and light skills of thieves even more skillfully.

Looking at the direction in which Zhang He disappeared, Shen Lian nodded slightly.

Everyone has his or her own strengths.

Zhang He's fighting ability is not as good as that of Ah Bao and the others, but his ability to monitor and track others is far superior to that of Ah Bao and the others.

They can almost be compared with the strongest people in Jinyiwei.

It is the responsibility of a qualified leader to maximize their strengths and use them in the most appropriate place.

Shen Lian shook his head, took a deep breath, and suddenly said, "Why don't you show up yet? If you don't show up, I'll leave."

There was silence for a few seconds in the empty and quiet street. Suddenly, a gloomy voice came over: "Master Shen, you are really alert. You have discovered all this."

At the same time as the sound sounded, a figure appeared in the mist.

It was the image of an old man, with a hunched back and a cane in his hand. He looked no different from an ordinary old man.

But his eyes were not cloudy, but filled with sharp light.

As he stood there, it was as if the temperature around him had dropped a few degrees.

Shen Lian raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Which country's secret guard?"

The old man seemed a little surprised: "Do you know my identity?"

Shen Lian said calmly: "In Chang'an, there will be no one who dares to follow me, spy on me, or even block my way, except for the secret guards who just come out and don't know anything about them. Even those terrifying mysterious organizations. After receiving lessons from me several times, I no longer dare to be so arrogant."

The old man smiled arrogantly: "Master Shen is too conceited... Moreover, I am not the guys that Master Shen saw before. They are far behind."

"For example, the person you met just now, what is his name? Tianquan, right? Haha, he didn't even notice my existence, so what qualifications do they have to compare with me?"

Shen Lian was really surprised this time.

He raised his eyes to look at the old man and said, "Do you think Tianquan didn't notice you?"

The old man chuckled and looked very calm: "That's natural. My concealment method is the best in the world."

"Tsk!"

Shen Lian really couldn't stand listening anymore, and he said strangely: "Who are you, the idiot who was released by this guy? You are so arrogant, and you dare to come to me to cause trouble."

"Are you the best in the world in secretive methods?"

He shook his head and sighed: "This is what Tianquan, who has no trace of Beichen and I, dares to say. This is also what Zhang He, the new generation of thieves' saint son who has been passed down by the thieves for thousands of years, dare not say."

"I really don't know how big your face is, how dare you say such things."

Being looked down upon by Shen Lian, the old man's face suddenly turned cold.

The surrounding temperature seems to be lower.

Shen Lian could feel that the old man was exuding strong murderous intent.

"What qualifications do they have to compare with me? I have been in the world for decades, and no one has dared to speak so brazenly in front of me!"

"Conquer the world?"

Shen Lian smiled half-heartedly and said: "The world you call is your small, small country with a small area, right? If you dominate your small country, you will feel that you have really dominated the world. That would be really ridiculous."

"To claim to be the best in the world without being recognized by the Tang Dynasty is the biggest insult to being the best in the world! A frog in a well is nothing more than that!"

….….….….

"you……."

The old man was furious, as if he had been greatly insulted.

He gritted his teeth and suddenly shouted: "Shen Lian, you are asking for death!"

After saying that, he drew his sword and rushed towards Shen Lian.

When Shen Lian saw this, his expression did not change at all. He did not dodge or dodge, and said calmly: "Three!"

"What?"

"two!"

"What are you doing?"

Shen Lian raised his eyes: "One!"

puff--

A mouthful of blood suddenly spit out from the old man's mouth.

The old man who was rushing towards Shen Lian staggered because of this mouthful of blood and fell directly to the ground.

The sword in his hand flew several meters away in an instant.

The old man's eyes widened as he fell to the ground.

He looked at Shen Lian with a horrified look on his face: "You...you...what did you do?"

Shen Lian shrugged and said, "I have been standing here all the time. What do you think I, Shen Lian, can do?"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "You didn't do anything, so why... why was I poisoned?" The old man was extremely shocked.

Shen Lian laughed and said: "I didn't do anything, but the two people who just left gave you some information when they left, so...why do you think they dare to let you hear us?" Conversation? Just because..."

Under the extremely horrified gaze of the old man, Shen Lian said calmly: "They... won't let you take three steps alive!"

"What!?"

The old man's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

Shen Lian said with an indifferent expression: "Do you understand now? How ridiculous it is to claim to be the best in the world without the permission of the Tang Dynasty.

When the old man heard Shen Lian's words, his whole body felt as if he was struck by lightning, and his face turned frighteningly pale.

He looked like his worldview was shattered.

It seemed that he couldn't accept it at all. Someone actually surpassed him in hiding ability.

Moreover, there were not only one person, but two people who surpassed me and poisoned me without my knowledge!

this…….

He just felt as if something in his mind was suddenly broken.

Shen Lian looked at the old man's collapsed look and shook his head slightly.

This is what a frog in a well looks like when he sees the real sky.

Although there are Arab and Roman empires in this world that are as powerful as the Tang Dynasty, the inheritance of the Central Plains lasted for thousands of years.
