Blood was flowing along the ground, strong winds were blowing, and the strong murderous aura... mixed into an extremely dark aura, surrounding the woman who flew to the ground, lingering for a long time.
Ling Xiyue walked slowly over, her face expressionless and her eyes lowered. Two blood-stained willow leaf blades were thrown out from between her fingers and landed next to the two corpses. They made two crisp sounds and flashed with coldness.
Cold light.
From the time he showed up to turning into several corpses, I'm afraid there wouldn't even be half a stick of incense...
He came with great momentum, but in the end he didn’t even know how he died!
"Miss!" Several urgent calls came from the corridor.
Wei Lin came in a hurry, and there were patrol guards behind him, and a group of people rushed over belatedly at this time, but you really can't blame them for being slow. Their reaction was really very fast, but
Ling Xiyue cleaned up faster.
Seeing the corpse on the ground, Wei Lin's mighty body was shaken violently.
"Miss!" He stepped to Ling Xiyue's side, "Miss, how are you?"
He glanced at the corpse on the ground, then quickly looked up and down at Ling Xiyue, his anxious voice sounded a little frightened.
He heard a little noise and thought it was because the wind was too loud that he had auditory hallucinations. He just came over to take a look with the thought that he would rather hear wrongly than be negligent, but he didn't expect that something really happened.
"It's okay." Ling Xiyue said coldly, looking straight ahead, taking off her gloves and throwing them away, but there was still no unnecessary expression on her face.
The silver silk silk gloves were stained with blood and looked extremely dazzling in the dark night.
"Quick, go and report to the king!" Wei Lin waved his hand with a serious expression.
This matter is by no means simple!
Ling Xiyue frowned and was about to call out, but the guard in green had already run away, and his footsteps disappeared at the end of the corridor.
Ling Xiyue gave up on his urgent look, as if someone was chasing his life from behind. This was indeed not a trivial matter.
This aura, as well as the familiar skills and methods, you can tell without looking at it that it is the work of the ghost tribe. How can a person from the ghost tribe know the royal city so well?
She is well aware of the defense of the royal city. Not to mention the patrolling guards on the surface, there are countless hidden outposts that cannot be seen, and there are also various magic formations and magic barriers. Even a master of the ghost clan cannot sneak into this place quietly.
Come, unless they know enough about this place!
The things inside are worth pondering...
Wei Lin naturally thought of this, so he didn't dare to delay and immediately reported it to someone.
The most important thing is that he actually let the assassin sneak in, putting Ling Xiyue's life in danger. He blamed himself for dereliction of duty and was scared at the same time. Fortunately, it was okay, otherwise he would really be to blame for everything.
"One of them ran away." Ling Xiyue turned her head and gestured to the back.
Wei Lin secretly glanced at his young lady, with a little surprise in his eyes, but he didn't dare to ask any more questions at this time. He glanced at the pool of black blood over there, raised his hand and waved heavily, his eyes full of solemnity, "Close the palace."
Door, search!”
Ling Xiyue was indeed invisible. Her eyes could only see extremely blurry silhouettes of human figures in the daytime, let alone at night. But Wei Lin didn't know that night had always been her home field and she didn't need eyes at all!
The current situation is just that she is always in darkness, and there is not much difference to her.
"Miss, please go back to the palace first." Wei Lin glanced at the windy surroundings, and the sound of waves filled the entire space.
Ling Xiyue tilted her head slightly, pointed with her chin towards the two corpses covered in black robes, walked away, and said lightly, "Take it to the main hall." Her red lips curved in a cold arc, "
It seems like there’s no need to rest tonight.”
"yes"
Wei Lin quickly waved people to come forward.
After a while, an alarm bell sounded throughout the royal city, like a note of urgency in the dark night where the wind was raging.
Apart from anything else, no matter who it is, encountering an assassin in the Yaochi Palace is a major event that can shake up the entire royal city. If Ling Xiyue really has a shortcoming, it would be easy for all the clan elders to vomit blood.
Wei Lin originally just sent someone to report to Huangfu Haofeng, but he didn't expect that after receiving the news, three priests and four sages... gathered together in less than a quarter of an hour, and hurriedly appeared in the Yaochi Palace one after another.
Ling Xiyue was startled by such an exaggerated battle.
"Yue'er, are you okay?" Huangfu Haofeng's face was ashen. He didn't breathe a sigh of relief until he saw his daughter standing in front of him intact. He came to his daughter's side like a gust of wind, his voice trembling slightly, "Is there any injury?
?”
"Dad, don't worry, I'm fine." Ling Xiyue smiled.
She returned Huangfu Haofeng's hand and could feel that the palm of his generous hand was wet with sweat.
Nalan Xueyi looked at the three corpses on the ground, raised her eyes to meet Huangfu Haofeng's angry eyes, frowned, and said two words solemnly, "Ghost clan."
The three corpses that had taken off their black robes were very strange. They seemed to be human, but they were not human. They had noses and eyes, and looked similar to humans, but their skin was a strange lime-white color, without any hair, and their heads were bald.
.
Especially the ears are a bit pointy, and part of them is stuck to the head!
Nalan Xueyi looked at the high priest, "If I'm not mistaken, this junior should be the messenger from the Dark Prison next to the Ghost King."
The eighteen hell messengers can also be said to be the ace killers under the Ghost King. They are almost at the same level as the seven king generals. It is said that there are now less than ten under the Ghost King. Four of them actually appeared in the royal city, which really has to attract attention.
"Bastard!" The Xinghui Scepter fell to the ground, causing the entire palace to tremble. "How did this ghost tribe sneak into the Yaochi Palace? Wei Lin!" He shouted angrily, furious, "You are all the same.
How are you supposed to be on guard!"
He was so incompetent that he even let people from the ghost clan sneak in without even knowing it.
Wei Lin immediately knelt down and said without any excuses, "This subordinate deserves death. Please punish me by the king and the high priest!"
However, before the high priest opened his mouth to punish him, Ling Xiyue took the lead and said tepidly, "Now is not the time to investigate who has neglected his duty. Finding out how they got in is the key. There is still one who escaped.
"
Wei Lin glanced at Ling Xiyue and understood that she was speaking for him, and he felt more and more guilty.
"That's right." The great venerable lifted up his sleeves and robe, furrowed his brows and took a step forward. He nodded in agreement and said in a deep voice, "Ji Chen, we can leave the rest to be investigated later. The main business is to catch the one who escaped.
.”
Huangfu Haofeng carefully checked his daughter and made sure that she was really fine before he thought about anything else.
At this time, those dark and stern eyes were filled by the violent storm. They turned to look at Wei Lin's eyes, which were also filled with strong murderous aura. "Wei Lin, send an order from me to the king to close the city gate. If the assassin is not eliminated for one day, the city will be destroyed."
If the door is not opened for a day, I will be searched from palace to palace, without exception!" xdw8
Those words that were like thunder shocked all directions, and the fury of thunder was more terrifying than the violent storm outside.
In the royal city, Ling Xiyue was almost assassinated right under his nose. How could Huangfu Haofeng not be angry or annoyed?
