Multicolored light swirled around the White Spirit Sword, and a sharp, white light seemed to be on the verge of being released. Qi Xing brandished his sword forward, and in that instant, a sharp glint visible to the naked eye pierced through the air and struck the tree in front of him.
The huge tree that was as thick as a person's waist was directly sliced in half by the sword qi! Qi Xing was slightly surprised. Originally, he had thought that the sword Qi would be able to leave a deep mark on the tree. However, he did not expect its power to be not that much weaker than his real sword. Lin Wan, who was cultivating by the side, was also alarmed.
Qi Xing took a step forward and his body immediately rose into the air. Bang! Qi Xing kicked the tree right in the middle, and it immediately flew into the distance. After doing all of this, the star rider landed on the ground like a leaf and left without a word. Qi Xing had a rough understanding of the power of the sword energy.
Lin Wan looked at the tree stump, her eyes filled with determination.
Just like this, Qi Xing cultivated in the courtyard to consolidate his explosive strength. Seven days later, Qi Xing walked out of the room. After instructing Lin Wan to cultivate well, he wore black clothes and disappeared into the darkness.
After the previous incident at the Cloud Water Sect, there were more security guards. However, this did not bring much trouble to Qi Xing.
"With a swish, Qi Xing dodged and used the short sword to press against the Cloud Water Sect disciple's body." Where's Xie Yufang? "
"Yes, it's in the southern courtyard." The disciple replied with a trembling voice.
The moment Qi Xing received his reply, he broke the other party's head and hid the corpse in a secluded corner before dashing towards the southern courtyard.
"Dad, the assassin from the Hall of Assassins is so weak, but he was actually discovered." A woman's voice came from the room. The heart of Qi Xing, who was hiding behind the pillar, went cold. Through the crack in the wall, he could see the owner of the female voice, Xie Yufang!
"It's not that the Hall of Assassins' assassins were weak, it's that I didn't expect the Sect Leader to appear at Wang Hongjun's place." "It seems like Sovereign has started to pay attention to me." Xie Zhenjiang sat on his chair, deep in thought.
"Humph, that's because these assassins were too weak. They spent tens of thousands of silver taels to invite only one silver medal assassin." Xie Yufang snorted coldly.
"Alright, your temper should change now. This is a critical moment. Don't mess with your friends. Stay by Old Yun's side and let him protect you. " Xie Zhenjiang's expression turned solemn. It was only then that Qi Xing noticed the white-haired old man beside Xie Zhenjiang. Looks like this is the Old Yun that Xie Zhenjiang spoke of. This person had a lot of inner energy and a lot of breath. Qi Xing could vaguely see a shocking aura coming from the other party's body. His eyes narrowed. Eight Heavens!
"What are you afraid of? I'm an expert, after all." Xie Yufang was reluctant.
When Xie Zhenjiang heard this, he was immediately infuriated. Nonsense! We can hire assassins, but won't Wang Hongshuang be so foolish as to invite us? "Then it's settled."
"Oh." Xie Yufang grunted in dejection, then turned and walked into the secret passage behind her, followed by Elder Yun. Xie Yufang's life was not going to be taken today.
After the two of them had disappeared into the secret passage, Qi Xing waited for a moment before entering the room with a flash. Xie Zhenjiang was deep in thought when he heard the commotion and was startled. What entered his eyes was a black clothed man, who was standing not too far away, staring at him.
"Who are you?" Xie Zhenjiang asked with a serious expression. The silver medal on his waist gave him a lot of pressure. And the pressure that Qi Xing gave him was even greater than the previous black words.
"The information you've given me is so accurate that even an eighth heaven expert wouldn't be able to trace it." Qi Xing sarcastically said as he found a chair and sat down. There was doubt in his heart regarding Xie Zhenjiang's strength.
"Humph, that's because your Assassin Hall trusts others too much." Xie Zhenjiang retorted sarcastically.
"If you want to continue assassinating Wang Hongjun, you'll need to double the price." That includes the compensation from my Hall of Assassins for losing a Silver Assassin. "
Xie Zhenjiang agreed without hesitation. "No problem."
"There must have been more people around Wang Hongshuang recently, so..." Qi Xing slowly said.
Xie Zhenjiang pondered for a moment. "Within ten days, I want to see Wang Hongjun's head."
"That price?" Qi Xing nodded. Seeing Qi Xing nod his head, Xie Zhenjiang felt quite pained and took out a hundred thousand taels of silver.
Qi Xing nodded his head in satisfaction. Without another word, he turned around and jumped out of the window. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from Xie Zhenjiang's sight. Xie Zhenjiang heaved a sigh of relief as his expression darkened. The assassin from the Hall of Assassins was truly worthy of his reputation. This Silver Assassin's stealth skill was actually able to fool an eighth heaven master like him!
Suddenly! Sensing a strong gust of wind, Wang Hongjun dodged to the side. Bang! An arrow was shot from his sleeve into the pillar in front of him. There was a piece of silk tied to it. Wang Hongshuang looked around and, upon realizing that there was no one around, he took it down.
"Dingfeng Mountain, let's meet on the Dingfeng Mountain Stele, a person who has yet to die." This simple sentence sent a shiver down Wang Hongshuang's spine. The victim was the Copper Assassin from last night.
"Brother Jiang, do you think we should go?" Wang Hongjun was afraid that he might be cheated.
"Go!" Jiang Jun said with a smile.
Dingfeng Mountain was originally a nameless mountain. There was a legend a long time ago that the Demon Phoenix lived on this mountain. It was said that it had ignited countless fires to burn down the surrounding mountain forests, causing countless people's lives and crops. Hence, experts were invited to get rid of the Demon Phoenix. However, the might of the Demon Phoenix was beyond the expectations of experts. In the end, they had suffered serious injuries in order to suppress it within the mountain with the Stele. Because of this, this nameless mountain was also called Dingfeng Mountain!
At this moment, the bright moon hung high in the sky. Beneath the mountain monument stood a black shadow. This person was Qi Xing!
Not long after, two figures approached the Stele from afar and hurried over. He hurried on his way, bringing along a slight gust of cold wind. In the blink of an eye, two silhouettes appeared beneath the Stele.
"Our cooperation seems to require further deliberation." Qi Xing went straight to the point. Wang Hongshuang and Jiang Jun narrowed their eyes. The silver medal hanging from his waist was extremely eye-catching.
"What do you mean?" You want to go back on your word? " Jiang Jun said coldly.
"No, I will not regret it. The reputation of the Hall of Assassins has to be guaranteed. However, there is still some information that needs to be clarified. " Qi Xing said slowly.
"What do you mean?" Wang Hongjun asked.
"Before this, I was prepared to assassinate Xie Yufang, but he actually had an eighth heaven expert protecting him. So he gave up for the time being. "Other than that, I still have some doubts regarding Xie Zhenjiang's strength. I wonder if you two could share it with me?" Qi Xing asked.
"The protection of an eighth heaven master?" Wang Hongjun was surprised. "Who?"
Qi Xing swept Wang Hongjun a glance. "An old man with white hair. Xie Zhenjiang calls him Old Yun!"
"Old Yun? "The person who claims to be the housekeeper of the Xie Clan?" Jiang Jun threw an inquiring look at Wang Hongshuang. Wang Hongshuang's eyebrows shot up. Looks like Xie Zhenjiang really hid his abilities well. He didn't even know that there was actually an eighth heaven master.
"Does Xie Zhenjiang have any doubts about his own strength?" Wang Hongjun noticed the latter half of Qi Xing's words.
"The feeling that Xie Zhenjiang gave me isn't like the feeling of someone at the peak of the seventh level, but it doesn't feel like the eighth level either." Wang Hongjun and Jiang Jun's faces fell. The same phrase echoed in his heart. The older the wiser!
"Before this, Xie Zhenjiang offered me another hundred thousand silver taels for ten days, vowing to take your head." Qi Xingwen looked at Wang Hongshuang. In an instant, Wang Hongjun was on his guard.
"Thus, the two of you have to complete your plans within ten days." Otherwise, I will follow the guidelines of the Hall of Assassins. " Qi Xing's heart turned cold.
"Thank you for informing me. This is a small token of my appreciation. Please accept it." Wang Hong immediately threw out two large silver notes. With a sweep of his star, he found a total of ten thousand taels of silver. In one night, other than the Hall of Assassins' order to double the amount of money, Qi Xing had earned sixty thousand silver taels in private. This couldn't help but cause everyone to sigh.
"Aren't you two going to reveal the plan a little? You don't need me to cooperate? Also, we will be sending you a message for free. If you two are willing to offer a price, I can clear it for you. " Qi Xing said lightly.
"Alright, we'll discuss after we check out Old Yun's strength." "" Jiang Jun said straightforwardly. I'll see you again in two days at this moment. "Farewell!"
Watching the two of them leave, the Star Archer disappeared into the darkness. My goal is nothing more than the death of the Xie father and daughter. As for Jiang Jun, he has inherited the skills of an authority. With such talent, if I were to use it, I would definitely be able to do it.
