In front of the gate of Beihai City, the elder monk was standing in front of the shadow, his eyes blank for a while.
The barrier in front of him was flickering with light at the moment, easily resisting the blow of the black-robed assassin.
"Damn, why does this guy have such a powerful energy shield?"
The black-robed assassin's eyes trembled slightly, and a bad premonition arose in his heart.
This suddenly raised shield made his full blow a joke.
He originally relied on concealment and assassination operations. When encountering this situation, his first thought was to escape as soon as possible.
The shield Aite on this guy couldn't be broken, so someone must have arranged some trick on him in advance.
"While this guy is still confused, the best thing to do is escape as soon as possible!"
The black-robed assassin groaned, then disappeared into the darkness and left quietly.
However, before he could take action, the shield in front of the man suddenly turned into a giant net, capturing him on the spot.
"ah!"
The giant net covered the body of the black-robed assassin, turned into a lightsaber, and pierced into his brain.
Suddenly, severe pain came from his head, and the man in black robe actually fell into a coma on the spot.
"This, this is?"
The older monk had recovered at this moment and looked at the man in black robe lying on the ground in astonishment.
He was completely under control just now and had no idea what was happening.
As soon as he regained consciousness at this moment, he saw a man in black robes lying in front of him, his body twitching from time to time.
The most important thing was that he noticed that this guy was still holding a dagger in his hand, and he was lying right in front of him.
Reminiscent of the previous absence and the situation in the city.
As he connected all of this, a look of nervousness suddenly flashed across his face.
Just when he was still a little confused, a voice suddenly came to his ears.
"Don't worry, just have a good sleep."
As soon as he finished speaking, a line of pink smoke was inadvertently inhaled into his mouth and nose, and the drowsiness suddenly came over him.
His body fell down while being supported by others.
Then he saw a figure also wearing a black robe walking out from behind him and directly grabbed the sleeping black-robed assassin on the ground.
A line of black smoke enveloped it, and then gradually disappeared in place.
On the other side, Zhang Yifeng and others in the city lord's mansion were waiting quietly.
Soon, a line of black smoke slowly rose, and the unconscious black-robed assassin was thrown to the ground.
"Zhang Daoyou, our first step is to start with this guy?"
Xiang Zhen stared at the black-robed assassin on the ground with bright eyes, and asked Zhang Yifeng in a low voice.
It was Xiang Zhen's secret guard who appeared outside the city gate earlier and brought this guy back.
Seeing the black-robed assassin being subdued in the light curtain, Xiang Zhen immediately understood what Zhang Yifeng meant.
The most important thing for them now is to find a breakthrough.
And this man in black robe who intends to assassinate the city gate guard is undoubtedly the best breakthrough point.
I believe that as long as he is tortured to extract a confession, he will not be afraid of not revealing everything he knows.
"Wait a minute, Lord Xiang, let me set up the formation here first."
Seeing that Xiang Zhen was about to wake up the black-robed man, Zhang Yifeng directly spoke to block his movements.
"good."
Hearing this, Xiang Zhen felt that he seemed a little too impatient and nodded in response.
I have to say that after being threatened by these bandit cultivators for so long, Xiang Zhen was a little too excited to finally catch one of them.
At this moment, under Zhang Yifeng's reminder, he also understood that he needed to arrange the formation first to prevent this guy from having any means of escaping.
Zhang Yifeng immediately took action, countless spiritual lights were distributed in the four directions of the living room, and he quickly arranged a formation.
Although it is just a casually arranged formation, it is enough to trap this small hidden pile of bandits.
Seeing Zhang Yifeng nodding, Xiang Zhen stepped forward, picked up the black-robed assassin, and slapped him in the face.
Although there are more gentle ways to wake up, Xiang Zhen is not so kind to this kind of guy.
Under the huge blow, the black-robed assassin gradually came to life.
Feeling the constant tingling sensation on his face, he drowsily raised his eyes and looked at Xiang Zhen in front of him.
When he saw clearly who was carrying him, the black-robed assassin's eyes suddenly flashed with horror.
Subconsciously, he wanted to wave the dagger in his hand and stab Xiang Zhen in the neck.
However, the right hand he stabbed subconsciously was empty. During the process of bringing him here, Xiang Zhen's secret guards had already removed his dagger.
"you……"
Seeing that there was no weapon in his hand, the man in black robe immediately wanted to threaten Xiang Zhen.
However, what waited for him was only his right arm that was directly broken, and Xiang Zhen smashed it with all his strength.
With a loud bang, the man in black robe was directly hit on the stone tiles of the living room, and there was a cracking sound from all the bones in his body.
"puff!"
A mouthful of blood spurted out, and the black-robed man's body was immediately stained with blood.
"You, you actually dare to attack me?"
"Aren't you really afraid that we will bloodbath your city lord's mansion?"
The man in black robe lay on the ground breathing heavily, but still raised his head and glared at Xiang Zhen fiercely.
"How dare you talk nonsense?"
Xiang Zhen's eyes turned cold, and then a group of vines suddenly grew out of his palm and climbed towards the man in black robe.
Not long after, the vines covered the black-robed man's body, and the spikes grew and pierced into his body.
"ah!"
Incessant screams could be heard, and the black-robed man's bones were shattered, unable to resist Xiang Zhen's torture.
Zhang Yifeng looked at Xiang Zhen's torture methods, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
It seems that this person should have had a pretty exciting past before becoming the lord of Beihai City.
"No, don't torture me, I will tell you whatever you want to ask!"
Finally, the man in black robe couldn't hold on anymore and raised his head and roared, then he lay on the ground and gasped for air.
Obviously this guy is not a tough guy, he just lost his desire to struggle after being tortured for a while.
"Tell me why you are causing trouble in the city!"
Xiang Zhen gritted his teeth and used the vines to lift the black-robed man up, and shouted coldly.
"I, we are here to find the key to the imperial treasury and the guide map."
The man in black robe had a look of pain on his face and replied intermittently.
"The key to the imperial treasury?"
Xiang Zhen frowned when he heard this, and a look of relief flashed in his eyes.
Zhang Yifeng noticed his eyes and had a vague guess in his heart.
It seems that this person has long guessed that the target of these people is the Imperial Treasury Key, but it has never been confirmed.
Now that the man in black robe said it himself, Xiang Zhen was completely convinced of his guess.
"No, that's right. Your Excellency asked us to search for all information related to these two things throughout the process."
