A woman with a mask on her face floated over and said softly: "Lu Jiu is already here."
Qingfeng nodded slightly and said in a cold voice, "I understand."
The two left here in silence.
Many elite assassins fell in the Shadow Tower, and their bodies were everywhere.
The bodies of Huanglong and Cangzhang were left next to the Shadow Tower.
The purple liquid in the glass bottle overflows, and the halo flows...
…
On the throne, the white-haired man said nothing.
Except for the low sound of water drops, the surroundings were dead silent.
Zhan, who was wearing a bamboo hat, walked in and knelt on one knee in front of him.
"Qingzhu broke into the Shadow Tower without permission and stole important items. Because of her, Qi killed Huanglong and Cangzhang, and is now escaping towards the Bridge of Oblivion."
His voice is not loud, but it can be clearly heard in every corner.
The leader did not speak. He stood up from the throne and calmly uttered four words: "Kill without mercy!"
Zhan's heart suddenly shivered.
In response, Zhan said in a solemn tone: "At the same time, Qinglong Pavilion has announced war with us, and Lu Jiu should be on the way here."
The leader was silent for a moment and then said: "Ignore Qinglong Pavilion for now and pursue Qingzhu and Qi with all your strength!"
"yes!"
Zhan nodded and said seriously.
He stood up and left here.
The leader's eyes were looking where he was looking, and his expression was uncertain.
"It's really beyond my expectation..."
His voice echoed clearly in the dark space.
…
The Bridge of Oblivion.
Under the natural stone bridge is a rushing river.
This river runs from the west of Xuanwu Kingdom through the entire Xuanwu Kingdom and flows directly into the sea.
laugh!
The Thousand Blades of the Demon Knife sliced open the neck of the assassin in front of him without any hindrance, and the number of corpses on the ground increased again.
Ah Qi looked at the group of assassins coming towards them with a cold expression.
His right hand is holding Qingzhu's shoulder, and his left hand is holding the magic sword Thousand Blades.
"Why do you have to save this woman? You are going to be the enemy of the entire organization. Have you thought clearly?"
Among the assassins, someone spoke slowly and said in a solemn tone.
Aqi looked calm.
Even if the assassins in front of him surrounded him, they would not be able to pose any threat to him.
However, he is not alone, there is Qingzhu beside him who consumes a lot of physical strength.
"I'm going to take her away today, let's see who dares to stop me..."
Ah Qi slowly spoke.
Qingzhu is the person Lu Jiu entrusted him to take care of, and he has no habit of breaking his promises.
So, today, he must take her away!
Suddenly, Ah Qi frowned slightly.
Why are these assassins chasing me so fast?
Could it be...
Thinking of this, he was suddenly shocked!
Unfortunately, it's too late!
Poof!
The blade pierced his chest, and blood spurted out instantly!
Qingzhu stood behind him expressionlessly.
If the leader hadn't been alive, she would have stabbed him in the heart!
His unprotected back was handed to Qingzhu, but he was severely wounded by her knife.
laugh!
The magic knife Thousand Blades was stuck on the ground, and Ah Qi held the handle of the knife to support her body.
He half-knelt on the ground, covering his chest that was bleeding continuously, and gritted his teeth.
By the time he realized that this might be a well-planned conspiracy, it was already too late.
Upon seeing this, the assassins on both sides held different weapons and walked slowly towards Ah Qi.
Ah Qi looked at the assassins who were constantly approaching her, and tightly held the magic sword Thousand Blades in her hand.
It seemed that it was a wise move for him not to drink the so-called Shadow Mysterious Water.
call--
On top of the thousand blades of the magic knife, true energy surges out!
The lavender light illuminated his cheeks.
He gritted his teeth and covered his wound.
Now that he was seriously injured and attacked from both sides, there was almost no possibility of escaping.
In this case...
Aqi poured all the dermis from her body into the Thousand Blades of the Demonic Sword, and the vigorous energy was transmitted to the Bridge of Oblivion through the Thousand Blades of the Demonic Sword!
However, at this moment, a long rainbow flashed across the sky!
Clang!
The icy cold light bloomed, and the terrifying sword energy cut through the necks of the assassins on the bridge like cutting leeks, killing them all in an instant!
Bang!
Lu Jiu appeared next to Ah Qi with a cold expression and kicked Qingzhu away!
When Ah Qi saw this, she immediately stopped.
Seeing Lu Jiu, Aqi's true energy on the Thousand Blades of the Demonic Sword suddenly stopped.
Then, he couldn't hold on anymore, slowly closed his eyes and fell down.
Seeing this, Lu Jiu quickly helped him up and injected zhenqi into his body to temporarily stop the bleeding from his wound.
Looking at the huge wound on his chest, Lu Jiu's face turned cold.
The assassins behind him were shocked when they saw the highly recognizable white clothes and short black and white hair.
"Lu Jiu! What are you doing here? Do you want to be our enemy?"
All the assassins were ready and looked at him with extremely vigilant expressions.
Lu Jiu ignored him, looked at Qingzhu in front of him who was dressed in white and whose hair color had changed, and said in a cold tone: "Why do you do this? Who turned you into this?"
Lu Jiu never expected that the woman in white who stabbed Ah Qi in the back would actually be Qingzhu!
After seeing that familiar face, Lu Jiu finally understood that Aqi didn't save him because he liked Qingzhu.
But because of myself!
Because I had asked Aqi to take care of Qingzhu before!
This made Aqi desperately protect Qingzhu and take him away!
As for me, because Qingzhu's changes were so huge, I didn't know that the woman in white was actually Qingzhu!
Qingzhu didn't speak, staring at him and Aqi with cold eyes. He threw the long knife aside and took out his two daggers.
There is no doubt that her acting skills are great this time.
The only flaw may be that Aqi didn't drink the Shadow Mysterious Water.
"Lu Jiu..."
At this time, behind Qingzhu, a white-haired man wearing a purple robe slowly walked over and looked at him with a dull look.
This person is the leader of the Shadow Assassins!
Seeing the arrival of the leader, Qingzhu and all the shadow assassins were half-kneeling on the ground.
When Lu Jiu saw Qingzhu expressing her surrender to him, his face was suddenly covered with frost.
It seems...Qingzhu is controlled by him!
Qingfeng, Jumei, Zhan, Chiya, and the masked woman also appeared behind the leader one after another.
"You must have a lot of doubts."
The leader looked at Lu Jiu and said.
Lu Jiu said nothing and stared at him closely.
If it were a group of miscellaneous fish assassins, they could easily be dealt with by themselves.
But no one in front of me is easy to deal with!
The strength of the leader of the Shadow Assassins is unfathomable!
And beside him was a younger brother who was seriously injured and fell into a coma!
If the war started immediately, it would be extremely disadvantageous for Lu Jiu!
By delaying time, you can wait for your own reinforcements.
Therefore, for Lu Jiu, the longer it takes, the better it is for him.
Otherwise, he wouldn't listen to this guy!
Seeing Lu Jiu's silence, the leader glanced at him and said, "Do you know who I am?"
When Lu Jiu heard this question, he sneered: "What does it have to do with me who you are?"
The leader ignored his rude attitude and said calmly: "I am your uncle, your mother's brother, and the father of Qingzhu and Qingfeng."
His words were like thunder, shaking Lu Jiu's mind.
My uncle? How is that possible!
Lu Jiu subconsciously didn't believe what he said.
"Nonsense!"
Lu Jiu snorted coldly.
Seeing that he didn't believe it, the leader didn't want to prove it. Instead, he smiled.
"Since you don't believe it, forget it."
After that, he took out a stick wrapped tightly in a bandage.
He poured Qi into it, and all the bandages turned into ashes.
Looking at the blood-blade Yama in his hand that turned into a giant blood-red sword, the leader said to himself.
"The Blood Blade Yama, the legendary divine weapon forged from the spine of the ancient demon, possesses trembling power."
"His last owner was your father and my brother-in-law."
"Because of the Blood Blade Yama's ability to recognize its master, I killed your father to get it."
"Perhaps, you don't know why I do this..."
His tone was very calm, just like a normal conversation between family members.
However, there is a huge message hidden in the plain words!
Seeing Qingzhu's face that was so familiar to him, Lu Jiu gritted his teeth in his heart.
Thinking of what the leader said just now, Lu Jiu had to start to consider the authenticity of what he said.
Maybe, he really is his uncle!
As his mother is his sister, and Qingzhu is his daughter, they are related by blood, that’s why they look so similar!
but……
Lu Jiu couldn't figure it out.
Why did he kill his father and hunt down his entire family?
Why did he want to control Qingzhu and design a trap to harm Ah Qi?
Is it possible for a person to do this kind of thing to his relatives?
Roar--
Behind the leader holding the Blood Blade Yama, a huge ancient demon soul suddenly appeared, roaring silently towards Lu Jiu!
At the same time, a roaring shadow gradually appeared on the leader's face, and disappeared after a moment!
When Qingfeng and the masked woman saw the ancient demon soul behind him, their eyes flickered slightly.
"When I got the Blood Blade Yama, I realized that the bloodline power I needed had been transmitted to your father's body, and was transmitted to you and your brother through the bloodline!"
A cold glint flashed in the leader's eyes.
When he first saw Ah Qi, his original intention was to kill her.
However, when he faintly felt the power inside Aqi's body, he changed his mind.
He decided to train Ah Qi!
But at that time, he didn't know that what was hidden in Aqi's body was the power of the bloodline in the Blood Blade Yama, and he simply thought it was the power left behind by his father.
Then, he started looking for the Blood Blade Yama!
And finally found the Blood Blade Yama in Qinglong Pavilion!
When he met Lu Jiu at that time, the leader clearly felt the strange movements of the Blood Blade Yama!
That's why he wanted to activate the power in Lu Jiu's body!
Simply, it worked!
And when he found that there was nothing he wanted in the Blood Blade Yama, he set his sights on Lu Jiu!
If you want to get what you want, you must make Lu Jiu stronger!
The stronger Lu Jiu is, the more he can hope to obtain the strong power of blood!
And Aqi, like his brother Lu Jiu, is blessed with the power of blood!
Their powerful physical talents made one of these two brothers the chief shadow assassin and the other the best swordsman in the world!
This also proves from the side how powerful the power of blood is!
And of course he couldn't let Lu Jiu grow to the point where he couldn't control it!
To allow Lu Jiu to grow up steadily, the leader naturally has his own elaborate plan!
