Chapter 209: Growing down-to-earth and becoming the best in the world
The moment he caught the assassin's position, Li Yan sprinted out, like a lightning bolt, and jumped ten meters away in the blink of an eye.
Then he turned his head continuously to avoid three crossbow arrows, and with great strength in his body, he sprinted a second time and cut down the target with one strike from a distance of seven meters.
The assassin immediately put aside the crossbow, dodged the blade in a flash, and struck Li Yan's ribs with his palm.
Li Yan exerted his strength horizontally, without dodging or dodging. At the same time, he turned the handle of the knife, making a concussive buzzing sound, and slashed out horizontally.
The assassin closed his palm and changed his attack, then swept behind Li Yan and hit the vital point in the back and heart.
Li Yan stabbed him with his backhand to force him away, but he saw that the opponent changed his move first and swam away like a spiritual snake.
The angle of the attack is not only tricky and weird, but the arm can also be bent and straightened, as if it has no bones, looking for flaws in every possible way.
"Well done!"
Li Yan's eyes lit up and he simply changed his mind.
His back stood straight, his arms stretched out, and the energy and blood in his body surged like a mighty river.
The surging Yuan Sheng Jin was operating at full strength, and the sword light reappeared with a completely different momentum.
The fierce wind blew out of his face, and the assassin felt pain in his face, as if he had been pricked by needles.
The assassin's eyes showed a look of surprise, but then a fierce look appeared in his eyes, and he pressed down with his palm.
Faster! More ruthless!
But just as he was about to succeed, another strong wind struck.
That's a fist.
While Li Yan drew the sword with his right hand, he clenched a fist with his left hand.
Shooting the bow left and right is not a talent, but the result of hard practice.
The blade of the right hand remains unchanged, and the large sleeve of the left hand flutters. There seems to be a storm in the sleeve, and dragons and snakes are swimming around.
Tiangang wind!
Li Yan once competed with Ming Chongyan's Dan Yuan Jin secretly, and Li Yan also learned some skills and integrated them into his own style, adding a bit more majesty to the already mighty Gang Feng.
"Snapped!"
Fists and palms meet!
Both of their bodies trembled, and no one took advantage.
However, the assassin's offensive was exhausted, and Li Yan's sword flash came in an instant.
"Whoosh!"
The tip of the knife drove straight in, tore open the clothes, and was about to cut the flesh and blood, cutting the opponent in two, but the assassin's chest suddenly shrunk.
Just because the world was so close, the sharp tip of the knife finally missed a little, and it returned with all its strength.
"Huh?"
Li Yan's eyes flashed, and an idea vaguely appeared in his mind.
Accompanied by the sound of tearing cloth, the two separated slightly during the brief confrontation, and then made different choices.
The assassin pulled away to retreat, but Li Yan stepped forward.
The two of them fought fast in the dark.
At first, you can still see people's figures flickering slightly, and then it's just a matter of listening to the wind to identify their position.
The assassin strikes close to the body, points his fists to the wind, and is erratic and unpredictable. At the same time, relying on his strange body skills, he can avoid fatal attacks by just a hair's breadth.
Li Yan opened his bow left and right, combining hardness and softness. He could either open and close widely, looking for opportunities to exchange injuries for injuries, or he could be clever and catch the loopholes in the opponent's moves.
The two of them fought more than thirty moves in the blink of an eye. Li Yan became more and more excited and murderous: "Finally I met a master who is not inferior to me! Good!"
When he got excited about fighting, the blade of his sword flew like a shadow.
The swords were killing people, and the strong wind was like a ball of drizzle, hitting the body like needles piercing it.
Seeing that he was so fierce, the assassin no longer struggled. He dwarfed and walked close to the ground. He suddenly jumped seven or eight meters away and fled away like an arrow from a string.
Li Yan also flashed and rushed forward, slashing with one knife after another. Bricks and stones flew everywhere along the way, and the murals on the wall were damaged.
Zhudan and others in front of the palace were extremely nervous. They heard sounds that were far away and now closer. The two sides chased and escaped, but they did not move away, but marched in circles.
"You haven't given up the plan yet?"
"Well, it seems you have help!"
Li Yan sneered, taking the initiative, and the energy in his body began to circulate, switching to the mode of consciousness-only energy again.
Eye consciousness and ear consciousness cooperate, and begin to listen to the sounds around you, looking for enemies in the shadows.
"found it!"
"Whoosh!"
His judgment was extremely accurate. Just as he was chasing the assassin out of the corner, a black light shone over him.
Even a long-planned sneak attack could not do anything to the prepared Li Yan.
He turned around to avoid the attack, adjusted his angle at the same time, and slashed with his sword.
This sword was sharp and domineering, killing the first assassin whose martial arts skills were not inferior to his.
The first assassin dodged away, and with the remaining power of his sword, he slashed towards the second assassin who made a sneak attack.
The assassin was considered a master among ordinary people. He retreated sharply, trying to distance himself.
But between the lightning and flint, the slash with the knife turned into a sweep.
"puff--"
Wu Han's sword light turned into a round shadow, which turned around with the power of Pei Ran.
The key is that the blade is still separated from the handle, and when the chain is pulled, blood spurts out.
The second assassin's head said goodbye to his neck and flew upwards.
Killing a person in an understatement, Li Yan ignored the blood spurting behind him, raised his right arm, and returned the tip of the knife.
The chain knife rotated, raised and slashed vertically, and slashed down like a powerful force splitting the Huashan Mountain.
The first assassin's pupils shrank and he could only continue to fight.
“Come again!!”
The two sides fought and walked away, and soon they came to a corner again.
Li Yan turned around and ran out a few steps ahead, with the tip of his knife touching the ground.
The third assassin was preparing for the attack, but saw a series of sparks set off from the ground, causing a harsh buzz.
Before he could react, the tip of a knife flew through the air and pierced his heart.
…
A quarter of an hour later.
The fourth assassin fell straight to the ground, a bloodstain appeared between his eyebrows, from top to bottom, almost splitting his face in half.
…
It's time for half a cup of tea.
The fifth assassin was punched high into the air and died before he even hit the ground.
…
"Is there no helper now?"
In the darkness, the two sides faced each other separately, their chests rose and fell violently, and their breathing became much heavier.
Li Yan killed all four secret guard masters. The blade of the sword drooped and dripped blood. He sneered and said: "You deliberately gave these comrades to me to kill, and you want to waste my strength. I will cooperate with you. Do you dare to let me go now?"
Fighting?"
The assassin's eyes showed surprise, and after being silent, he backed away.
But this time when he stepped away, even the sound of breathing completely disappeared.
Li Yan condensed his eyes, stopped chasing, turned around and headed towards the palace, and said loudly: "I just felt it, you are practicing Master Xuanzang's consciousness-only power!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Master Xuanzang accepted you as his successor in Famen Temple in order to carry forward the knowledge of the Consciousness-Wei Sect, but you used it to assassinate people!"
"And I have also learned this secret that Buddhism has not taught. I think it is Master Xuanzang's spirit in heaven who wants to use my hand to clean up the sect!"
Silent and unresponsive in the darkness.
Li Yan didn't say much and returned outside the palace.
Seeing his return, Zhu Dan and the guards breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly greeted him: "Deputy Ambassador Li, have the assassins been captured? Are you not injured?"
Li Yan said: "Five assassins came, I killed four and escaped with one."
Zhudan Rumeng was pardoned: "Great! Great! Now the Gar family no longer dares to assassinate!"
Li Yan shook his head: "Actually, it's not good. The one who escaped is the most powerful one. Unless Zanpu is closely protected by the Dongcheng Guards every day, the other party will come again if there is an opportunity. If you are not careful, you will come back."
Zhu Dan changed color: "Is this the first time the assassin has come to murder Zan Pu?"
Li Yan said: "It should be this person. Judging from the lineup sent this time, Zan Xiruo has obviously made up his mind. It is normal to send the strongest person."
Zhu Dan's face turned ugly: "Then how long do we have to be on guard?"
Li Yan said: "It's actually not difficult, there are two solutions."
"First, as long as there are enough manpower and strong bows and crossbows ready, no matter how powerful the assassin is, he will not dare to use his skills directly. That person is bullying your palace guards because they are too weak."
"Second, just catch the assassin directly!"
Zhu Dan: "..."
so helpless.
Can't do any of them!
But after thinking about it carefully, she had some hope for the first point.
After all, Zampu today is no longer what it used to be, and the courtiers are getting closer.
As long as one of the ten heads of thousands of households in Wei Ru who holds military power clearly surrenders, the palace's guard strength will be greatly enhanced immediately.
As for the second item, it was too difficult in her opinion: "Deputy Ambassador Li, what does the assassin look like? Is he similar to Ambassador Shen?"
Li Yandao: "From the beginning to the end, the assassin didn't say a word. Not only did he completely hide his face in the darkness, he didn't even make a sound. However, judging from the process of our fight, this person's height, short, fat and thin is indeed very similar to Shen Juyuan.
."
Zhu Dan raised his eyebrows: "When the assassin assassinated him, Messenger Shen was being guarded by the envoy. If he had stayed in the envoy last night, can the suspicion be basically eliminated?"
Li Yan's eyes flashed, he smiled meaningfully, and waved his hand: "Don't be anxious yet, wait until dawn!"
After finishing speaking, Li Yan sat down patiently and regained his luck.
We just had a battle and the losses were huge.
If he hadn't been extremely strong, he wouldn't have dared to kill four assassins in a row against a master of similar strength.
But it is precisely in this smooth fight between life and death that the two major powers in the body gain a little more insight.
Especially the switching of strength, the change of movement and stillness, gave Li Yan a new idea.
If you combine the two powers together, can you develop a unique power method of your own?
But he quickly shook his head.
I haven't mastered my single-sect strength yet, so thinking about those things is too far away.
Let’s start with down-to-earth growth and become number one in the world.
With his fundamental talent, once he has mastered both Bai Sheng Jin and Consciousness Only Jin, he will be unmatched by anyone in the world.
I still have this bit of confidence.
Li Yan was immersed in recovery and cultivation, and the second half of the night passed quickly.
At dawn, the Dongcheng Imperial Guards came to take over.
After hearing about the assassination incident last night, Shang Lun Cha Mo was shocked and angry, but he had no choice but to direct his men to carry the fallen guard down for burial.
There was a noise in the palace, Zamp and the princess appeared, and the thrilling night finally passed.
But the aftermath is not over yet.
As soon as Li Yan got up, he saw several Wu De guards rushing towards him with panic on their faces.
Before he arrived, someone shouted: "Deputy Ambassador Li, Shen Juyuan injured someone and ran away!"
