C21 The Red Wolf Attacked

Walking slowly on the narrow and narrow path in the middle of the night, Ning Yue felt even more uneasy. Compared to the previous few nights, it seemed that the night was too quiet, as if it was a dead silence.

"That's not right. Logically speaking, there should be guards patrolling at night, right?"

He muttered. It was also at this moment that he really saw two guards standing under the dim corner of the wall not far away. He hurriedly walked forward and greeted, "Sorry to disturb you. Did you look at my..."

Suddenly, his voice stopped. His eyes narrowed slightly as he tentatively reached out to push one of the figures.

Bang!

He fell to the ground. There was no reaction at all.

Dead?

Ning Yue was shocked. He suddenly turned around and looked around. All that was visible was the dim houses and trees, nothing else.

The night was still so quiet.

"It seems that there is still some warmth left."

After lightly touching the second person, Ning Yue confirmed his feelings just now. The guard had died not long ago. That meant... the murderer should still be in this mansion!

In the distance, the core area of City Lord Mansion was still brightly lit. However, the gorgeous orange-red flame now looked a little scary. It was a mutated blood red flame.

Even though the flame was bright, there were still blind spots that could not be seen. The coldness hidden in the darkness quietly moved.

"Not good!"

In the next moment, Ning Yue turned around and jumped back into the house at the last speed. He carried the ancient sword on his back. He had just received the sword from Ning Yue today. The cold and heavy feeling in his palm made his heart tremble again. He raised his eyebrows and turned around to leave the room. He quickly ran in the direction that he had known for a long time.

"Jingsi, wait for me. You must not have anything to do with it!"

Tch! Tch! Tch!

The strange chain danced under the night sky. It was as agile as a poisonous snake, but it had a sharp edge that surpassed the fangs. The black sharp blade was very inconspicuous in the dark night, but it was enough to kill.

"I thought that the City Lord Mansion would have a few worthy opponents, but I didn't expect that they would all be trash like this."

Under the pale moonlight, a graceful figure stood alone on the bluestone floor. Her light red short hair was only reaching her shoulders, and the bat-like mask covered half of her face, making it impossible to see her true appearance.

In her hands, the two daggers that were connected to the chains were stained with blood. Many of the City Lord Mansion's guards had fallen in all directions. All of them had been killed with a single strike, and the wounds were all on their throats.

"Feng Yue, don't waste your time on these guards. I think only the head of the guards would know about that secret. " There is no need to kill anyone else. "

A tall and thin figure walked out of the darkness at the entrance of the courtyard. With a casual toss of his hand, the head of the guard squad, who had lost his breath, fell to the ground.

"In terms of the number of lives I have, I am not even a fraction of your number. Now, you are here to lecture me?" The woman lightly snorted and pointed at the buildings that were clearly taller than the surrounding buildings. She said, "Follow the plan. I will go over there. You search for that place."

The tall and thin man nodded and replied, "Be careful. I think there should be experts overseeing this place."

The woman smiled and said, "One, come. Just kill one. When has the Red Wolf ever been afraid of anything? "

As soon as she finished speaking, she flipped her body and flew past the wall in front of her, landing in another courtyard. The City Lord Mansion was huge, but the map had been engraved in her heart for a long time.

That should be the young lady's room.

After the young lady left, The tall and thin man was still standing in the distance. The long and thin sword in his hand was slowly raised. He smiled and said, "Why are you still hiding? Come out."

In the next moment, two figures appeared at the edge of the roof. One of them knocked the two blades in his hands and sneered. "As expected of the infamous assassin organization, Red Wolf. Such sharp senses. However, why didn't you ask your comrades to attack us together just now? "

"I alone am enough to deal with you guys."

The tall and thin man gave a teasing smile. His long crimson robe that was as red as blood gently swayed in the night wind.

At the same time, Ning Yue, who was running, finally saw a familiar figure. A small group of guards were gathering.

"Liu Wei, what happened?"

He turned his head and looked at the sound. When Liu Wei saw that it was Ning Yue, a trace of anxiety flashed across his eyes. He casually replied, "Enemy attack. If I'm not wrong, the one who came is the Red Wolf."

"What? The Red Wolf?! That assassination organization that has been on the wanted list for more than four years but has yet to capture a single member. The infamous Red Wolf?" Ning Yue was shocked, and his tone became even more uneasy. "Then, Jingsi... No, how is Eldest Miss doing?"

Sensing the difference in the way she addressed him, Liu Wei's expression changed again and he harrumphed. Of course, the lady has someone to protect her. You don't have to worry about her. I'll give you a word of advice. Leave the City Lord Mansion during the chaos. This is your best choice."

"Thank you, but I know what I want to do. Commander Liu, just do your job well."

Ning Yue replied coldly. He did not bother to argue with Liu Wei anymore. He turned around and walked away. He used his strength and jumped up. The moment he ran, the spiritual energy in his meridians started circulating. His movement technique, the Flying Swallow Ladder, was activated. He sped away under the night sky.

He did not stop him from leaving. Instead, he looked in the direction that led to Yuan Jingsi's residence. Liu Wei smiled cruelly and raised his bow. The bow was curved like a full moon, and the arrow shone with a cold light as it pointed at the back of the figure. At such a distance, It was impossible for him to miss. Moreover, in his opinion, No matter how fast a warrior of the eighth level of the Origin realm was, he was still far from being able to shoot an arrow from his fingers.

"This way of dying is actually quite comfortable, isn't it?"

Swoosh!

The bowstring trembled and a cold light shot out. He could almost see Ning Yue's body being torn apart by the arrow.

At this moment, Liu Wei grinned hideously. However, it froze in an instant. At the same time, his eyes were wide open, filled with disbelief and shock.

A pitch black sword wind quietly cut through the darkness of the night. The arrow that shot out was instantly crushed into dust. The remaining force was not reduced in the slightest. With a swing of his sword, he cut across the bluestone floor, passing through Liu Wei's entire body without any obstruction.

The sword was cut in half. Without any hesitation, the violent sword energy exploded and sent the two broken bodies flying into the rain of blood. The scarlet dots were not eye-catching in the night sky, but it was enough to freeze the hearts of the other guards.

In the distance, a robust figure strode over with large strides. He carried an extremely exaggerated jet-black large sword on his shoulder.

Ning Yue seemed to have heard the unusual movement behind him. He slowed down his pace slightly and turned his head to take a look. However, he was already quite far away. It was night again and he could not see clearly.

At the same time, a slight sound in front of him alerted him again. He suddenly stopped and saw two figures behind the wall door fall together. Behind them, a thin figure stood in the dark and could not be seen clearly.

"Oh? There is another person who came to my door alone?"

The man snorted and stepped out from the darkness. He lifted his robe and his right arm was covered by the dark silver armor. He opened his fingers and pointed his finger at Ning Yue. Then, he closed his fingers and put them away. He sounded even more confused.

"Wait a minute. Why is it you?"

Ning Yue was startled when he heard this. He did not dare to lower his guard. He drew his sword and pointed it at Ning Yue. Then, he shouted coldly. "Who are you? Do you know me?"

The person in front wore a mask. His nose was covered up all the way up to his forehead. His appearance could not be seen, but judging from the half of his face that was exposed and the voice just now, he should not be that old. However, no matter what, Ning Yue could not link any of the figures to this person in his memory. Just one of them was not enough.

His ochre hair had never appeared in his memory.

Towards Ning Yue's confusion, the other party said with a faint smile, "It's just that I've seen it on the wanted poster. The Cloud Void Sword Pavilion's abandoned disciple, Ning Yue, has a reward of ten thousand silver coins. Compared to the worst disciple in Red Wolf, You're ten times worse. What, you want to get involved in this? I'll give you a word of advice. Tonight, our goal is not for you. Hurry up and leave. "I can pretend that I haven't seen you before."

The most notorious Red Wolf in Snow Dragon Empire. Someone actually recognized me! Shouldn't I be honored?" Ning Yue's fingers that were holding the sword increased in strength, his eyebrows also raised. "Let me pass, or I will go by myself."

"No way. Are you still going to fight me?"

The man was stunned. He shook his head and opened and closed his right hand. The sound of metal grinding together was very clear in the night.

"Red Wolf, Yin Shou, the reward is 180,000 yuan. How about we measure it with this difference?"

Zheng!

The only response he got was the whistling sound of the sword. Under the dim moonlight, the flickering Silver Rainbow sword light was not eye-catching, but the cold intent was enough to pierce through life.

Ning Yue knew in his heart that he didn't have much time left. It might even be too late. According to the rumors, the Red Wolf had never been able to finish their target in less than fifteen minutes. They came in a hurry and left without a trace. Since an assassin had appeared in their current location, the core residential area of the City Lord Mansion might have already been invaded.

Yuan Jingsi was currently in danger!

"What a fast sword. What a pity. It's no use to me."

With a casual smile, Yin Shou arched his body and jumped back. The five fingers of his right hand turned into a palm and chopped down. Taking advantage of the gap between them, he heavily hit Ning Yue's fingertips. He exerted force and pressed down.

Clang!

The tip of the sword tilted and made a sound. The tip of the sword fell towards the bluestone floor, along with the figure of the sword wielder.

In an instant, Ning Yue gritted his teeth and shouted. The circulation of the Profound Strength in his body intensified. The blade bent and hit the ground. The force of the impact caused his falling body to flip and rise again. At the same time, he twisted his left hand and pulled out the sword on his back. The brown and red sword shadows whistled under the night sky.

Ding!

Sparks flew everywhere. Yin Shou took another step back. He looked at it in disbelief and saw that there was a shallow sword mark on his arm armor made of special alloy.

"Good sword. Before this, I was the only one who could break other people's weapons. No one could hurt me."

"There is no absolute in everything. Didn't you encounter it tonight? Get out of the way. Otherwise, the next strike would be your throat!"

With a cold shout, Ning Yue raised both his swords and pointed at the person in front of him. A faint red color slowly appeared on Ning Yue's face. His entire body was emitting an aura that was slowly warming up, like a burning flame.

Hot, so hot.

He himself did not know why his meridians suddenly felt as if they were burning. This feeling was similar to the time when the ancient sword was unsealed, or... the feeling when he drank the Iron Spine Tiger Tiger's blood a few days ago.

In front of him, Yin Shou's eyes under the mask slightly flickered. He had an idea about the sudden change in Ning Yue's aura.

Could it be that he had advanced?
