C167 Unchangeable

Look, the sword light is three feet away from the top of my head. The cold stars had arrived before him, and they were already within three feet of him. If he still didn't make a move, a big hole would probably be added to Zhang Jingxuan's body. More than ten small holes. However, he still didn't have the intention to make a move, as if he was confident in his own abilities.

In next to no time, the answer was revealed.

The dozen or so cold stars arrived in front of Zhang Jingxuan, and the originally messy formation in front of him whistled. It suddenly turns into A against B, B against C, interlocking, they actually changed direction in unison, one by one, from shooting at Zhang Jingxuan to shooting at the assassin who fell from the sky. The technique was so exquisite that it made people speechless.

The assassin saw that these hidden weapons had changed their target at the last moment. Although it was an accident, it seemed that he had been keeping alert at all times. In just a moment, Zhang Jingxuan, who was holding the sword, turned into a spectator.

To the assassin, on one side, there was hope that he could kill Zhang Jingxuan with the sword, and on the other side, the dozens of hidden weapons would add more than ten wounds to his body.

With some helplessness, the assassin made his choice. The sword light shook, and turned to face the dozen or so hidden weapons. Ding! Ding! Ding! The sound was like the sound of a guqin playing. It was so pleasing to the ear. The dozens of hidden weapons were forced back by the sword light and fell to the ground. None of them escaped.

The assassin's figure also slowed down slightly because of this. This person had a medium build and wore an indescribable dark skin-tight robe. It was as if the color could change according to the environment. No wonder he had been lying on the big tree without any cover, making it difficult for people to distinguish him.

Seeing that he had been disrupted by someone, he did not linger at all. He turned around and wanted to escape into the forest.

Zhang Jingxuan, who had been acting like nothing had happened, finally moved.

He did not want to let this guy escape so easily. Since he had planned to ambush and assassinate him, he should make him suffer. Then, he should ask who the mastermind was and what his plan was.

It was fine if Zhang Jingxuan didn't move, but if he moved, he would be incomparably swift and fierce. Because it was a plan, the assassin had no choice but to change his move after being attacked by the hidden weapon. Naturally, it was not as fast as Zhang Jingxuan who had planned it.

Zhang Jingxuan was already fast enough, but there was someone who was faster than him. It was only because, no matter how fast a person was, sometimes they were not as fast as the hidden weapon.

The assassin turned around and was about to escape, but the moment it was activated was always the slowest. On the treetop on the other side of the road, a white light shot straight towards the assassin's back. This time, there was only one. But the power of this one... It only made people feel that it was more than enough to surpass the previous dozen or so.

Although the position had changed and the concealed weapon had changed, Zhang Jingxuan could clearly feel it. It was still the person who had fired the concealed weapon at the beginning. Perhaps it was because he was unhappy that his concealed weapon had been knocked down, or perhaps it was because he also did not want the assassin to escape. Han Xing went straight to the back of the assassin's heart, and a light flashed in his heart. It was so gentle that it was irresistible.

Zhang Jingxuan shouted, "Leave him alive!" as he swung his sword at the hidden weapon.

The hidden weapon seemed to have a life of its own. Zhang Jingxuan used his sword against it. It did not like Zhang Jingxuan. It had originally shot straight towards the back of the assassin, but when Zhang Jingxuan attacked it, he used the spine of the sword to push it. Before the sword could attack, it suddenly flashed. It slanted in an elegant arc and drew a full half circle. The magical whistling didn't slow down at all. It turned around and attacked Zhang Jingxuan. It was so fickle.

Seeing that the hidden weapon was so mysterious, Zhang Jingxuan did not bother to chase after the assassin anymore. When it came in front of him, he waved the Heaven Conniving Sword in his hand. He used his sword's spine to slap the hidden weapon backhanded. A buzzing sound could be heard. The Heaven Conniving Sword shook slightly and the hidden weapon fell to the ground.

With this slight delay, the assassin's back had already disappeared without a trace. Perhaps he did not run far, but that protective clothing could change according to the environment. It was definitely not easy to find him again.

Zhang Jingxuan had no choice but to give up on chasing after the assassin. He looked around and found that the person who fired the concealed weapon had never left the road. The two times he had fired the concealed weapon, he had even changed his hiding place. Obviously, he did not want to be discovered.

Since that was the case, Zhang Jingxuan did not want to look for this person. If he wanted to come out, he naturally did not need to look for him. If he did not want to come out, it would be pointless to look for him. Besides, he did not have the time to play hide-and-seek with them.

He lowered his head to look at the hidden weapon that he had just knocked out and found that it was a long, dark white object that looked like gold and wood. It looked like a small arrow. Zhang Jingxuan swung the horsewhip in his hand. He picked it up and took a simple look at it. He did not see any clues, so he gave up and put it in his pocket. He sped up and continued on his journey.

There were originally many questions and things that were difficult to resolve in his heart, but the things that had just happened added an even stranger focus to everything.

Who was the one who wanted to assassinate him? And who was helping him out? Why did the person who saved him stop him when he wanted to arrest the assassin?

One question after another reverberated in Zhang Jingxuan's mind, causing him to feel like his brain was going to explode.

Shaking his head, he looked up at the faint clouds and mist that still could not cover up the half crescent moon in the night sky. Zhang Jingxuan decided not to care about so much. Since he could not give himself a clear result even if he let his imagination run wild, he might as well hurry back to the stronghold. Perhaps after Mr. Lee and the others finished their seclusion, they could ask him for guidance.

He was careful along the way, but nothing happened again. Although there was a slight delay, Zhang Jingxuan still returned to the mountain stronghold as fast as he could.

When they heard that he had returned, Zhang Nanyao, Tian Liewu, Zhu Ziming and Chen Beijun, Lee Huanqing, and the others all went out to welcome him. Only Kuan Jiangjing was missing. Zhang Jingxuan asked about seventh elder brother, and Zhang Nanyao answered that he knew you were back tonight. There might be a lot of questions that would be difficult to choose from, and the Seventh Chief felt that he could not help much. So he went to the back mountain to take a look and see when First Chief of Brigands would end his seclusion.

Hearing what he said, Zhang Jingxuan felt touched in his heart. This seventh elder brother did not seem to care about anything. He did not expect seventh elder brother to take care of him so well. This was a different kind of luck.

With the silent support of his brothers and friends, Zhang Jingxuan felt that he could easily take over the entire world. The pressure in his heart instantly lessened, and a smile appeared on his face once again.

Zhang Jingxuan did not forget to say a few words. When the time came, the government would send a few blacksmiths over. He wanted Tian Liewu, Chen Beijun, and the others to recognize that he was not in the stockade. He had to be careful in everything. Mi Shuhuang had never been seen. He had been defeated by him and was in a sorry state. He was probably holding a grudge against him, so he had to be careful.

In addition, Zhang Jingxuan arranged for someone to go to Yan'an Province to invite Lee Yao, the young master. If he was willing, he would invite a scholar like him to help him. He couldn't help but think of Lee Huanqing saying that he was flirting with her. He couldn't help but shake his head with a bitter smile. How could there be such a thing? It was just that they felt that they were getting along.

Now, during the meeting of fortune, he had personally taken charge of such a matter outside the city wall of Xi'an Prefecture. Naturally, he had to take responsibility until the end. Since that was the case, it was far from enough for him to rely on himself alone. Now was the time to build a team that belonged to him.
