Dongyuan Pavilion is a large courtyard built in Licheng specifically to receive high-level officials of the sect. It is very luxurious.
Although Wu Yuan has never entered.
But when I left the city martial arts academy, I heard its name many times.
"No one can identify my body shape when I am in my bone-changing state."
Wu Yuan walked in the darkness and kept approaching Dongyuan Pavilion: "What if I left that woman alive?"
She's just a woman who relies on her body to please men, she doesn't know anything about it.
To kill or not to kill is just a matter of his thoughts.
Just like when he assassinated the 'Bald Wolf King Xian', he also did not take the life of the so-called 'Fairy Xiangqin'.
no point.
On the way to Licheng, I carefully removed the traces, just to prevent the masters of Hengyun Sect from tracing back the source later.
And sneak carefully while guarding the general's mansion.
Firstly, I don’t want to scare the snake away before finding ‘Xu Shouyi’, and secondly I don’t want to cause unnecessary killing.
"We're here." Wu Yuan leaped into the Dongyuan Pavilion from the shadow of a corner, and his consciousness was completely dispersed.
Do your best to be aware of your surroundings.
"Xu Yuanjie said just now that Xu Shouyi was hosting a banquet for the sect's senior officials? Something important?" Wu Yuan walked in the corridor, close to the shadows, sensing all directions, and soon understood the general direction.
"Main Palace!"
"There seem to be many masters." Wu Yuan used his 'spiritual sense' to sense the special direction of the main hall.
Dongyuan Pavilion is very heavily guarded, no less than the General's Mansion and the County Sheriff's Mansion.
It stands to reason that even a top-notch expert would not be able to sneak in easily.
However, for Wu Yuan, whose martial arts skills have reached the level of 'situation control', although it is not a leisurely stroll, it is very easy to sneak into it.
Gradually approaching the main hall, Wu Yuan followed the darkness and hid in the beams above the corridor.
"Huh? Is this...Xu Shouyi's voice?" Wu Yuan's powerful 'hearing' vaguely heard the conversation in the palace dozens of meters away.
It’s not just Xu Shouyi.
Wu Yuan even saw dozens of Nanmeng sergeants guarding the gate, including several commanders wearing heavy armor.
"Zhu Hong, Liu Ye?"
A chill flashed in Wu Yuan's eyes: "Very good, it seems they are all here."
When Cheng Te was recruiting disciples, many high-level officials in Licheng had hosted a banquet for Wu Yuan.
Xu Shouyi did not come at that time. Among the several commanders who came on behalf of the Nanmeng Army were Zhu Hong and Liu Ye.
Naturally, Wu Yuan knew both of them.
"There are still several powerful auras that seem to pose a threat to me?" Wu Yuan frowned slightly: "At least a second-rate master, maybe even a first-rate master."
With Wu Yuan's current strength.
In his spiritual sense, the masters who can still have a sense of 'threat' to him are at least second-rate masters.
Under this situation, Wu Yuan did not dare to get closer.
If you get closer, it will be easy to spot.
"Not in a hurry."
"Wait a minute, they should be having a banquet." Wu Yuan was very patient: "But the banquet will always end. At that time, wait for them to come out, confirm Xu Shouyi's position, and kill him with one blow."
And this wait.
It was actually close to three hours!
The sergeants guarding the door were all drowsy, but the sound of eating and drinking in the main hall remained the same.
"This banquet lasted all night?" Wu Yuan frowned slightly: "It's less than an hour until dawn. If we delay it any longer, it will be difficult to take action."
Killing Xu Shouyi is not difficult, but leaving safely is more troublesome.
With the help of the night, Wu Yuan was able to retreat calmly.
If you wait until dawn, the probability of exposure will increase tenfold!
Wait until tomorrow night to attack?
Long nights and many dreams!
"We can only attack by force." Wu Yuan's eyes were slightly cold, and with a thought in his mind, the bloody mist left the Shangdantian Palace, quickly dispelling the fatigue all over his body.
Landed quietly.
Walk straight to the main hall.
…
In the main hall, the lights are brightly lit, the decoration is splendid, and candles illuminate the room like daylight.
A group of maids were waiting on both sides.
"Senior Brother Fu, do the meals I serve from Li Cheng meet your taste?" Xu Shouyi served him carefully.
"Haha, yes, Junior Brother Xu, your senior brother, I saw you right when I was in the sect." An extremely fat man in purple robe was sitting on the futon, eating and drinking. There was a table in front of his table.
Eat a lot of meat.
There was also a steady stream of food delivered.
Beside, there were two men, one was a young man and the other was an old man. They were both strong and strong, but in front of this 'Senior Brother Fu', they both looked very thin.
Looking at 'Senior Brother Fu', the other people were a little helpless.
They spent the whole night eating and drinking, but this senior brother Fu could still eat, as if he was a glutton that could never be filled.
"General Xu, do you have any clues about the 'Chujiang Order' other than the information reported to the sect?" One of the slightly elegant, white-haired young men asked.
Young man with white hair.
"No more." Xu Shouyi continued: "Guardian Zhang, the last clue I traced is that the 'Chujiang Order' should have been taken away by Beast Mountain Hammer Minglie or the mysterious gunman."
"Yeah." The white-haired young man nodded slightly.
"There are no clues, how can we investigate? If Ming Lie took it away, he must have given it to the old man Yuanhu." Another old man in black shook his head: "As for the mysterious gunman, do you have any information about him? His family? His origins?
"
"Nothing was found." Xu Shouyi said with a bitter smile.
"Trash!" the old man in black said coldly.
Xu Shouyi felt resentful in his heart, but did not dare to refute at all.
The three people who came were all much stronger than him, and their status was also much higher.
Especially the old man in black, whose status is the first among the three.
Otherwise, how could he be ordered to come and investigate the "Chujiang Order"?
"Huh?" The old man in black suddenly turned his head.
Almost at the same time, the strong man in purple robe and the white-haired young man who were eating and drinking also turned their heads and looked out of the hall, with a hint of solemnity in their eyes.
"What?" Xu Shouyi has not yet reacted.
"Pfft~Peng!" "Pfft~Peng!" Liu Ye and Zhu Hong, the two commanders of the Nanmeng Army who were guarding the gate, flew into the hall with a bang. There was a shocking wound on their necks.
Blood flowed.
The two bodies were still struggling, but they saw that they could not survive.
"There is an assassin!" "Assassin." The guard sergeants outside the palace exclaimed as if they were just waking up from a dream.
"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"
With almost a series of collisions, the group of guards at the door were all thrown away, either falling into the hall, hitting the wall, or flying to the bluestone ground in the distance.
There is no single enemy!
It sounds slow, but in fact everything happened in an instant, when many guards were thrown away.
Whoosh!
A figure in black has rushed into the hall with a knife.
He, with a grimace mask on his face and a burly figure, stopped, glanced across the hall, and landed on Xu Shouyi. His voice was cold: "Xu Shouyi, the grudge you committed fifteen years ago should be repaid."
The feud from fifteen years ago? Xu Shouyi was confused.
What grudge?
The three masters who were ordered to investigate Li City stood up at the same time.
"Your Excellency is very skilled. You can sneak in here silently, but you are also very brave." The white-haired young man's eyes were cold: "If you try to kill my disciples of the Hengyun Sect, no matter who you are, you will die today."
"Oh? Really?" Wu Yuan's voice was cold and he glanced at the three of them: "Just you?"
"I told you, Xu Shouyi, you won't be able to see the sun tomorrow."
boom!
Wu Yuan moved directly and instantly turned into a blurry black shadow, rushing towards Xu Shouyi who was far away from him.
"Death, thief!" shouted a loud voice.
Boom! A terrifying ax struck, it was the fat and strong man ‘Senior Brother Fu’, the scales on his body armor collided with each other, making a shocking momentum.
Neither the old man in black nor the young man with white hair took action.
"Senior Brother Fu, he is one of the top three hundred masters on the list." Xu Shouyi was full of expectations, although he didn't know who the man in black was in front of him.
But it didn't stop him from knowing that he was here to kill him.
"Boom! Boom!"
The big ax suddenly escaped from the strong man's hand and hit the wall not far away, instantly making a big hole in the wall.
"Pfft~" The two of them passed each other like lightning.
The strong man in purple robes was thrown to the ground with a crash, and there was a shockingly large wound on his abdomen, with blood flowing.
"You! Top master?" The purple-robed man's eyes were filled with fear.
"Fu San, named 'Fat Axe', number two hundred and eighty-seven on the Jiangzhou people list." Wu Yuan's voice was cold, as if it sounded in the endless darkness: "If you want to die, just come forward again."
Immediately, Wu Yuan swept across, and blood gathered on the black tip of the knife.
Tick tock~
Blood fell to the ground.
The sound could be heard clearly in the hall.
Because, the hall had become silent, and everyone looked at Wu Yuan in shock.
One combination, two swords.
Just beat the top 300 players on the list?
"Senior Brother Fu, were you defeated with one blow?" Xu Shouyi was completely frightened: "Is he a top master? Such a terrifying person, come to kill me?"
"Seeking revenge?"
"But fifteen years ago, what kind of hatred could I have made? How could I provoke such a terrifying master?" Xu Shouyi couldn't figure it out even after racking his brain.
The white-haired young man looked shocked, and there was even a hint of fear in his eyes when he looked at Wu Yuan.
In terms of strength, he is only about the same as the purple-robed brawny man ‘Fu San’.
"Shua~"
The old man in black was holding a sword, but he stepped in front of Wu Yuan. His face was as old as sixty or seventy years old, but his expression was extremely calm.
Fu San's injury did not seem to affect his thoughts.
"Your Excellency, this must be the secret knife that killed the 'White Jade Immortal' in Nanmeng Mansion a few days ago." The old man in black said softly.
Wu Yuan was slightly shocked, but the expression in his eyes did not change at all: "Hidden knife?"
"Dark Knife is just a code name we gave you. After all, we don't know your true identity." The old man in black said slowly: "Also, I think you were the one who killed Yang Hu in the Liehu Gang.
"
Everyone in the palace looked at Wu Yuan in astonishment.
"What if I say no?" Wu Yuan's voice was calm.
"Except for Your Excellency, I can't think of anyone else." The old man in black spoke softly and stared at Wu Yuan with burning eyes: "I think the Chu Jiang Order should also be in your hands."
"Hand over the Chujiang Order and I will spare your life!"
"Chujiang Order? What is it?" Wu Yuan remained indifferent: "I don't know what you are talking about."
"but."
"I don't want a big conflict to break out with the Hengyun Sect, but if you don't give way, then don't blame me for being ruthless." Wu Yuan's voice was cold and he raised his sword.
The old man in black remained unmoved, only the blade of his sword turned slightly.
"Then die!"
At the same time as Wu Yuan's voice sounded, he turned into a phantom and rushed to the old man in black.
