Although Zheng Wei did not speak, he glared angrily. Apparently he realized that he had been tricked by the eldest prince.
Tuoba Yang didn't care, and seemed not to notice the two people's questioning. He poured himself another cup of tea and drank it slowly.
"Boy, sit down first and let's talk about this slowly."
Du Shengkun snorted coldly: "If you don't give me an explanation today, is there any need for us to continue talking?"
The eldest prince is just a prince, neither the prince nor the current emperor, so Du Shengkun is not very afraid of him.
"Don't worry, I will give you an explanation."
Tuoba Yang said, "The reason why I want to join forces with you two is to take precautions just in case.
I really didn’t expect that this boy named Ye would even invite the four major deacons, he really has some skills.”
Du Shengkun said: "You are still talking about alliance, but what about the people from the First Prince's faction?
If we send three strong men from the Dongxu stage, even if we fail to succeed, we won't suffer such a big loss."
"What I want is success, and what I want is for the boy named Ye to die, no matter how high the price is, I won't hesitate.
Of course, what happened this time was a bit unexpected, I didn’t expect Ye Bufan to invite so many experts.”
Tuoba Yang said, "But the people I sent have already passed. When you two attracted those masters away, they should have already taken action."
Du Shengkun and Zheng Wei looked at each other, and only then did they understand that the eldest prince had used the people they sent as bait.
However, to be able to achieve this position, none of them are good men and women. As long as they can succeed, they will not hesitate to sacrifice a little.
Hearing that Tuoba Yang had also sent someone over, the anger in Du Shengkun's heart immediately diminished a lot, and the two of them sat back down again.
Zheng Wei asked: "His Royal Highness, who is the person you sent? When will there be news?"
"The people I sent out were deadly people."
Tuoba Yang raised his head and looked at the moon in the sky, "I guess it won't be long before I come back."
As soon as he finished speaking, a figure suddenly appeared in the courtyard, and it turned out to be Gouhun who had rushed back.
Zheng Wei and Du Shengkun were both slightly startled. Apparently they recognized that this was an assassin, and his level was not low.
A smile appeared on Tuoba Yang's face. Since the soul is back, it proves that the matter has been successful.
He asked: "How are things going?"
Gouhun saluted and said respectfully: "Return to the master, I have killed Ye Bufan."
"What, it actually succeeded?"
Hearing his answer, Du Shengkun and Zheng Wei both showed a look of astonishment.
Although they had always wanted to kill Ye Bufan, they still couldn't believe it when they heard that he was really dead.
The Du family, in particular, suffered a lot at the hands of Ye Bufan. Two of their core disciples died, the second elder Zhang is still unknown whether he is alive or dead, and the eldest elder was seriously injured.
Such a powerful and ruthless character, and now that he heard that he is dead, it is inevitable that there will be an unreal feeling in his heart.
Zheng Wei couldn't restrain his inner excitement and asked: "Is what you said true?"
Gouhun glanced at Tuoba Yang, and then nodded: "It's absolutely true, I killed him with my own hands just now, there's no mistake."
"this……"
Hearing the news, Zheng Wei was both happy and a little unbelievable.
Then he asked: "Are you sure? Although that kid is young, he is more cunning than a fox. Are you sure you didn't kill the wrong person?"
Tuoba Yang also said: "Please tell the two of you in detail what happened."
After receiving the order from his master, Gouhun said: "That's it, when I sneaked into the inn, I found that there were four great deacons guarding it, so I hid myself and didn't act rashly.
Later, the four people were lured away, so I found an opportunity to sneak into the room..."
He told what happened from beginning to end, and finally said: "I am sure that person is Ye Bufan.
He was refining elixirs when I entered. His appearance was exactly the same as the image given to me by the previous owner, and he was also a body refining monk.
Combining these three points together, I am sure that the person I killed was him."
Tuoba Yang immediately applauded: "According to what you said, there is no doubt that that boy is Ye Bufan."
Du Shengkun frowned and asked, "Even if it's Ye Bufan himself, are you sure he's dead?"
Gouhun seemed a little annoyed by the continuous questions: "I've cut off his head, how can he still be alive?"
Zheng Wei said: "In that case, why don't you bring his head back?"
For some reason, without seeing Ye Bufan's head, he still felt a little confused.
"I am also a Seven-Star Assassin after all. Hundreds of people have died at my hands over the years, and there has never been an exception."
Gouhun said impatiently, "Killing is killing. I have never been in the habit of bringing back heads."
"In this case, I feel relieved."
Hearing that the other party was once a Seven-Star Assassin, Zheng Wei immediately felt more confident. No wonder Tuoba Yang let him act alone. It turned out that he still had such an identity.
The profession of an assassin is to kill people, not to mention the seven-star assassin. It seems that Ye Bufanzhi will definitely die this time.
After thinking about this, he suddenly became elated and looked at Tuoba Yang excitedly, "Your Highness, the eldest prince, since Ye Bufan is dead, should his place go to our Lingxiao Academy?"
"Of course, I always keep my word."
Tuoba Yang finally removed this thorn in his side, which made him feel extremely comfortable.
"Elder Zheng, don't worry. My father has given me full authority to handle this matter. You can bring anyone you want tomorrow. I will let him enter the Tianluo Secret Realm directly."
"Then I'd like to thank the eldest prince."
Zheng Wei saluted and then left happily.
Du Shengkun didn't say anything and left the eldest prince's mansion together.
Returning to the Du family's house, he hurried to Du Rushan's room. After entering the door, he asked: "Elder, how is your injury?"
"It's much better already."
Du Rushan's injury was not too serious, he just suffered some skin trauma on his shoulder, and he has already recovered more than half of it.
However, thinking about the situation at that time and Ke Zhen's fall, he still felt a lingering fear.
"Master, this time is really dangerous. If I hadn't seen the opportunity quickly, I might not have been able to come back this time.
I don’t know where the boy named Ye came from, but he actually invited four strong men from the Dongxu Realm, and even Zhang He, the general manager of the palace, and the elders of the three major sects took action for him.”
Du Shengkun frowned, feeling that something was not right about this matter.
First, he asked about the situation at the inn in detail, and then told the story about the First Prince's Mansion. Finally, he asked: "First Elder, that Seven-Star Assassin said that Ye Bufan is dead, but I always feel that something is not right.
Son."
Du Rushan also didn't expect that there would be such an episode later. He said: "If this is the case, there should be no problem. A seven-star assassin assassinating a student should be easy to catch."
Du Shengkun shook his head: "If you were that boy named Ye, and there were four strong men from the Dongxu stage guarding you, would you send them all out?"
Du Rushan's expression changed slightly: "Definitely not. I have to at least keep one by my side so that I can be safe."
"That's right. Since he has invited so many helpers, it means that Ye Bufan has realized that someone is going to attack him. How could he not keep experts around him under such circumstances?"
Du Shengkun said, "So I guess there must be something wrong with this matter. The boy named Ye is probably not dead!"
