Chapter 768 Making a sound in the east and attacking in the west
"boom!"
There was a loud bang, and the building in that corner was blown to pieces.
As the fragments flew, a black shadow burst out from there.
However, the leg seemed to be injured. The speed of the dodge was very slow and he was limping, leaving a long line of blood wherever he passed.
"He is indeed an assassin from Purgatory Hall!"
"Brother Ye's perception is really far beyond ordinary people. We didn't notice it at all, but you actually discovered it!"
Guo Qin and others admired him endlessly.
Jin Lin, on the other hand, snorted coldly, "Still want to escape?"
As she spoke, she instantly soared into the sky. After flying ten meters into the air, she waved her delicate hand.
"Zheng!"
With a burst of metal trembling, a delicate long sword appeared out of thin air in his hand.
It is her weapon, the thin willow sword.
Without any explanation, she swooped out in an instant, and quickly stabbed the black figure in the back with the long sword in her hand.
The man reacted quickly and immediately rolled away.
But after throwing away the empty golden scales, he immediately picked up the sword again.
"Tsk!"
"puff!"
The sword energy split the void and passed through one of the black shadow's legs in an instant.
"ah!"
Another scream came out.
One of the legs of the black shadow was separated from the body.
And this was because Jin Lin was deliberately showing mercy, otherwise this sword would have been enough to kill the assassin on the spot.
"Master!"
Seeing that the black shadow could no longer escape, Jin Lin put away the thin willow sword and cast a questioning look at Ye Chen.
"Has your cultivation level transitioned to the emperor level?"
As Ye Chen walked over, a happy smile couldn't help but appear on his face.
Before that, Jin Lin's cultivation level was only at the ninth level of quasi-emperor.
But just now, he was able to fly in the air, which shows that his cultivation has entered the emperor level.
Because only by stepping into the emperor level can you fly in the air!
"This is all thanks to the Emperor Cheng Dan that Young Master gave me a few days ago!"
Jin Lin cast a grateful look.
Ye Chen no longer answered, but walked step by step in front of the black shadow, and said in a deep voice: "Your life only depends on my thoughts. Answer me a few questions, and maybe I can consider letting you go..."
"Hey, do you want to beat me into submission?
dream!"
Before Ye Chen finished speaking, a cold laugh came from under the assassin's mask.
At any moment, I saw his throat rolling.
"Want to commit suicide by taking poison?"
Ye Chen frowned and quickly used a piece of spiritual power to instantly restrain the man's movements.
But, it's still a little late.
"Zizzizi!"
The sounds of corroded flesh and blood resounded densely. The man's whole body convulsed violently, and his skin began to fester at a speed visible to the naked eye.
But in just a dozen breaths, the whole body began to shrivel up.
"You are so cruel to yourself!"
"Are these Purgatory Hall assassins all a bunch of lunatics?"
Guo Qin and others looked at each other.
This assassin would rather commit suicide than fall into their hands.
It can be seen that these assassins should have put life and death aside before taking action.
Ye Chen couldn't help but sigh, "I wonder who the master of Purgatory Hall is, who can actually cultivate such a loyal assassin!"
"No one knows this!"
Qiu Yijian shook his head, "The Purgatory Hall is a mysterious force. No one knows where the headquarters is, let alone the identity of the hall leader!"
The two Guo Qin brothers also shrugged, expressing that they knew nothing.
As for the golden scale, Ye Chen definitely doesn't expect it anymore.
After all, Jin Lin, like himself, had just come from the Southern Territory, so he definitely didn't know much about this place.
"ah!"
Suddenly, another scream came from not far away.
Ye Chen and others instantly became alert.
"It's the person who lives next door!"
"Were they also attacked?"
Qiu Yijian and Guo Qin were extremely vigilant.
But before they could rush over to take a look, various shrill screams were heard from other directions.
"They are all guests invited by Qianqiu Pavilion!"
Qiu Yijian's face was gloomy, "It seems that we are not the only ones who have been assassinated by the Purgatory Assassins!"
"Let's go over and have a look!"
Ye Chen said this and rushed towards the direction where the scream came from.
Qiu Yijian, Guo Qin, Guo Mingyue, and Qiu Yijian followed closely.
As they rushed out, screams continued to come from the surroundings, one after another, resounding throughout the guest living area of Qianqiu Pavilion.
"There is an assassin, please save me!"
"It's an assassin from Purgatory Hall!"
"You are so arrogant, you actually sneaked into our Qianqiu Pavilion to assassinate the invited guests!"
"Activate the formation immediately, we must catch them all in one fell swoop!"
"The rest of the people, go to the rescue immediately and try to protect our guests from harm as much as possible!"
The people in Qianqiu Pavilion reacted quickly, and in just a moment, they activated the formation to completely isolate this area from the outside world.
At the same time, countless disciples and elders rushed into the area where the guests lived and launched a crazy offensive against the assassins of Purgatory Hall.
Because the formation was activated in a timely manner and Qianqiu Pavilion responded quickly, the Purgatory Hall assassin who was causing trouble just now became a turtle in the urn.
However, they refused to surrender. Instead, they took advantage of the chaos of the crowd and ran around, continuing to attack and kill the panicked people.
"Hurry up and send more manpower!"
"If this continues, more people will die!"
"Invite all the elders here, quickly!"
Seeing that they were still unable to control the situation, the Qianqiu Pavilion warriors present panicked and immediately sent someone to ask for support.
The Purgatory Hall assassins are really crazy. They are not afraid of death, and their movement skills are extremely weird. When the Qianqiu Pavilion warriors chase them to one place, the assassins will flee to another place.
It was late at night, and the night was dark and windy. If we wanted to catch them all, we had to increase our manpower in large numbers and start a carpet-like search.
Soon after, a large number of Qianqiu Pavilion warriors came in.
Since then, the search efficiency has indeed improved a lot, and the situation has almost become one-sided, and the assassins of Purgatory have been captured one after another.
But just as the warriors of Qianqiu Pavilion were arresting the assassin with iron-blooded methods, an earth-shaking loud noise suddenly came from the distance.
"boom!"
Like thunder exploding, the reverberation echoed endlessly over the entire Qianqiu Pavilion.
Following the sound, I could see a variety of vast combat techniques criss-crossing and colliding with each other in the sky over a lake in the distance.
It was the collision of these combat skills that caused the loud noise just now.
"what happened?"
"Where did such a loud noise come from?"
"It's coming from Qingshui Lake!"
"Qingshui Lake, isn't that where the Blue Blood Lotus grows?"
For a moment, everyone was shocked by the fierce battle coming from the distant sky.
Especially Ye Chen and others also stopped chasing the assassins of Purgatory Hall.
"Looks like you were fooled!"
Ye Chen said solemnly: "They are creating chaos here, but they are just making excuses to attack the east. Their real target is the Blue Blood Lotus!"
Qiu Yijian's expression also changed, "No wonder these assassins are so brave and fearless of death. It turns out they are just buying time for their accomplices to seize the Blue Blood Lotus!"
Guo Qin said anxiously: "Most of the warriors from Qianqiu Pavilion have been dispatched here. I wonder if there is anyone guarding there?"
"Don't worry, although Purgatory Hall's plan is somewhat unexpected, Qianqiu Pavilion is not a place where they can be arrogant!"
Qiu Yijian snorted coldly.
"Could it be that the place where the Blue Blood Lotus grows is guarded by the strong men of Qianqiu Pavilion?"
Jinlin asked.
"That's natural!"
Qiu Yijian nodded, "The Blue Blood Lotus is the most precious treasure of Qianqiu Pavilion. No matter what chaos happens in other areas, the strong Qianqiu Pavilion guarding Qingshui Lake will never leave even half a step!"
"It seems like Purgatory Hall's plan will come to nothing!"
Guo Qin let out a sigh of relief, "Sacrifice so many people, but still come back with nothing in the end. It's really a waste of time to accompany my wife!"
However, Ye Chen shook his head, "It shouldn't be that simple!"
"oh?
What does Brother Ye mean by this?"
Guo Qin asked.
"Qingshui Lake is guarded by strong men. Since you all know it, Purgatory Hall must have thought of it a long time ago!"
Ye Chenyi pointed out: "In this case, they still dare to rob him, which shows that they have a way to deal with it."
As soon as these words came out, Qiu Yijian's calm expression disappeared instantly.
"Yeah, why didn't I think of this?"
He slapped his forehead and said anxiously: "Then what should we do now?"
“Go and take a look first before we talk!”
Regardless of Qianqiu Pavilion's so-called no-fly order, Ye Chen immediately rose into the sky and flew towards Qingshui Lake.
