C629 Guards
In the darkness of the night, Zhang Jingxuan went straight to the mansion in the daytime. With his current realm, he wasn't worried that someone would follow him. However, when he arrived near the mansion, he became serious and careful. Strategy and tactics were two different things after all. The heroic Zhang Jingxuan also knew one thing. In terms of strength, he didn't have any advantages. However, his main purpose for this trip was to investigate. He didn't want to directly clash with the other party. Like a wisp of smoke, Zhang Jingxuan's figure used an irregular forward route. Sometimes, he even had to move forward by two and then back by three. He wanted to make sure nothing went wrong. He didn't want to be discovered before he obtained a certain harvest.
After entering the house, Zhang Jingxuan found that it was just as he had imagined. The inside and outside of the house were tightly guarded. It was all because of Zhang Jingxuan's extraordinary skills and his superb ability to use anesthetics. This was the reason why he was able to enter the mansion without anyone noticing.
The security in the mansion seemed to be more lax than outside. Not even half of the guards could be seen. But Zhang Jingxuan knew that this was the more dangerous arrangement.
After observing for a moment, after increasing the full strength of his five senses, Zhang Jingxuan found three hidden guards, but this should not be all of them. Zhang Jingxuan strongly felt that there was at least one guard that he had yet to discover. Therefore, he could not take any action.
After another hour or so, there was still nothing. Zhang Jingxuan even suspected that he had made a mistake. He even wanted to ask for directions. But in the end, he still gave up on such a low level method. It was really not suitable for such a high level occasion.
But what should he do? He did not make a fuss about it for a moment. Just as he was hesitating, a change suddenly occurred in the venue.
A black figure floated in from outside like a ghost. Just like Zhang Jingxuan, it did not alert the guards outside at all. When this figure entered the inner residence, it was completely different from Zhang Jingxuan's choice.
The black figure jumped straight into the inner residence and raised his head to head inside. It seemed like he had returned to his own home. However, perhaps he had mistaken the door.
From the back of a basin on the left side, it seemed like it was just a small place. It was impossible for anyone to hide there, but a figure shot out from there. A white light in his hand pierced towards the black figure's throat. His attack was extremely ruthless. It seemed like he only wanted to kill him in one strike.
Since the black shadow dared to come here, it could also not easily alert the others to enter the inner residence. Naturally, he was not someone easy to deal with. The white light stabbed over. The black shadow raised its right hand, but it did not use a weapon. However, there was a slight "ding" sound in his ear, and the white light was blocked. How could the white light be willing to let this matter rest? Like a chain, it wrapped around the black shadow. But it was always blocked by the black shadow's hands, unable to take another step forward. Looking from afar, a ball of light wrapped around the black shadow. It was about to swallow him up at any time.
Zhang Jingxuan, who was hiding and watching, knew that the ball of light seemed to be at its peak for a moment. In fact, it was merely the liveliness on the surface. It seemed like the black shadow definitely had an extremely short weapon in his hand, and from the way he used the short weapon to catch the opponent's long blade, it seemed that he was still able to handle it with ease. His martial arts was actually above the opponent's. However, Zhang Jingxuan was a little surprised that the two of them were fighting in such a manner.
As an uninvited guest who came to visit at night, since his martial arts was far beyond his opponent's, he should have chosen to end the battle as soon as possible. However, he seemed to be leisurely strolling around, which was very puzzling.
The guard was also a little strange. Perhaps it was because he knew that his skills were not as good as his opponent's. Therefore, every move he made was a move to attack, and he used a method to fight with his life on the line. If he wanted to fight with his opponent, both sides would suffer heavy losses. Or rather, he would first suppress his opponent with his aura. However, since he was a guard, and he had companions, why didn't anyone go and help him? And why did he also fight bitterly? He didn't send out a signal. Otherwise, as long as he shouted loudly, just the dozens of people outside would come and help.
Zhang Jingxuan didn't know what was going on, so he chose to watch quietly. After all, it was still a long night.
Finally, the black shadow who came in was a little impatient. He blocked the opponent's long blade and suddenly raised his hand again. Nothing could be seen in the darkness. Only Zhang Jingxuan's eyesight could barely see it. In the night, a few black needles shot out. Zhang Jingxuan narrowed his eyes, as if he had thought of something.
The black shadow shot out fine needles. His opponent did not have Zhang Jingxuan's ability. Even though they were very close, they could only sense it when the needles were in front of them. However, that man was also very powerful. The moment the needle entered his body... The long blade flew out of his hand and shot towards the black shadow. He actually wanted to struggle in defeat. After the man threw his weapon, he also staggered backwards towards the shadow that had just appeared. But he could no longer retreat with his body intact. Halfway back, he staggered and fell to the ground. With a "clang," he knocked down a fake mountain flower pot on the ground. He fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.
This time, it made a very loud noise. Even Zhang Jingxuan held his breath, waiting for the next step to change.
Sure enough, the expected change had come, but it had happened a little slower than he had expected. Furthermore, after creating such a huge commotion, he didn't see a single person coming in to take a look. From this, it could be seen that all the arrangements in this courtyard house... There was something strange about it.
After the crisp sound of the flower pot shattering, about half an incense stick of time passed. A figure floated down from a pillar on the corridor in front of the house. It was as silent as a fallen leaf. That figure did not go towards the black shadow that had barged in, instead, it slowly walked towards the guard who had just fallen to the ground. The black shadow stood still on the spot. Zhang Jingxuan thought to himself. It seemed like the other party wanted to save his companion first. After that, he would work together to attack the black shadow. He didn't know why the black shadow would let the opponent do whatever he wanted.
However, very quickly, he knew that he was wrong. It was a huge mistake and a huge mistake.
The second person walked to the first person's side and lowered his head as if he was whispering something. His voice was so soft that even Zhang Jingxuan could not hear him clearly. He could not tell what he was talking about from the shape of his mouth.
Then, that person drew a blade and chopped off the head of the first person.
Blood gushed out like spring water, and that person only took a step back. Just in time to dodge. Then, he slowly walked towards the black shadow. Holding the long blade in both hands, that unparalleled killing intent... It seemed to solidify in the air.
Regarding his actions, Zhang Jingxuan expressed that he did not understand. Could it be that every guard here had to deal with the enemies on their own? And once they were defeated, they would become a lone soul with their heads separated from their bodies? The guard just now seemed to be quite strong. However, his experience in facing enemies was still a little too young. Otherwise, the black shadow would not have been able to succeed so easily.
