The inner city of Bloodhunt, directly below a normal inn.

A man in black walked briskly through the intricate underground passages, and several forks he encountered did not stop him, obviously very familiar with this place, and there was a clear place to go.

The candle flame burning in the passage was disturbed by the wind he walked through, and all kinds of shadows shook with it, making this already dark passage even more eerie and terrifying. The man in black was accustomed to this, and he walked to a rusty bronze door at the end of the passage, reached out and pulled the knocker on the left, and with a mechanical rumble, the bronze door slowly opened.

The eye is open to a large hall, with a dozen huge carved bronze columns stretching forward side by side, and the bright flames on the pillars, but without temperature and smoke, burn quietly, illuminating everything around them. There were people of all shapes and sizes standing under the pillars, and when they saw him enter, they all stopped talking, and the hall was suddenly a little quiet.

The air was a little cold, and the man in black shrank his hand and hurried forward.

At the back of the hall, on the wide stone seat, sat a man wearing a black and red brocade robe, his body almost blended into the darkness, his face was hidden under the hood, and he couldn't see the expression on his face clearly, and on his left hand, a white snake was entangled, and the white snake's eyes followed the man in black, which made the man in black feel cold in his heart for no reason.

The man in black held back the discomfort in his heart and did not show it, he handed a letter to the attendant beside the man in the brocade robe, and then stepped aside, waiting for the next order.

The brocade-robed man read the contents of the letter, withdrew his hand supporting his chin, glanced at the many subordinates below, and finally stopped at a man with a gloomy breath hidden in a wide robe, clamped the letter with detailed information written in his hand with two fingers, and ejected it to him:

"You, go and bring the target back to me, and remember not to leak it to other forces. ”

"Everyone else, who had previously been delayed by martial law, took action. This time the Northern Kingdom attacked Bloodhunt City, disrupting the order in the city, and the monitoring of us has become much lighter, this is a rare opportunity. ”

"Also, don't slack off in the pursuit of Feng Moqi. How many plans he has sabotaged in the past five years, this time, whether it is dead or alive, I will bring him back to me. ”

"In the end, the 'Hell of All Beings' needs fresh blood. ”

"Yes, sir. All the subordinates should say yes in unison.

The gloomy man took the letter, followed the others to salute respectfully, and quietly exited the hall according to the thoughts in his heart.

Only the brocade-robed man was left in the hall.

In the quiet hall, the man raised his hand, and without warning, several black crystal shards appeared in his hand, which slowly floated under the invisible force, and there was nothing special to see.

"Finally reappeared, collecting these fragments, what the hell does the Sect Master want to do?"

No one answered his question. The man turned his head to look to the far east, his face contemplative.

......

On a road from the Ten Thousand Feather Mountains to Stormwind City, Yin Jiuchen drove his horses boredly and walked among the mountains. The Manwa Mountains are named after the many undulating peaks that look like the feathers of birds from above. It's been a long journey of almost a month, and it's not wise to walk on foot.

At this moment, it has been half a month since they left Wanyu City, and in the past half a month, Yin Jiuchen has stabilized his own realm of the first order of imperial qi, and marched towards the second order of imperial qi, presumably he will be able to enter the second order of imperial qi soon, the most important thing in the imperial qi realm is the strength of the soul, and only when the soul is strong can he control more aura.

"Jiuchen, how long will we have to walk to get out of this mountainous area?" Behind Yin Jiuchen, Xia Lian asked weakly.

"It's only half the way now," Yin Jiuchen looked at the unchanged scenery in front of him, "Do you regret it now?" ”

"No regrets!"

"You just have a hard mouth. Yin Jiuchen knew that Xia Lian was just a little bored, and after the Wanyu City incident, their relationship was really closer.

The two men rode their horses slowly, and when they turned a corner, the horses suddenly stopped, and they were a little restless in their place, apparently sensing something. Yin Jiuchen handed over the reins to Xia Lian, jumped one after another, climbed the canopy next to him, and observed the front.

Not far ahead, in the middle of the main road, there was a black snake, which was one size smaller than the giant snake that Yin Jiuchen encountered in the Dusk Forest, but it was not to be underestimated. The black snake spread its body lazily, receiving the warm sunlight, and it seemed that it would not leave for a while.

Yin Jiuchen sighed secretly, along the way, this is the first time he has met the beast clan?

If he is tough with the black snake, he will inevitably need to consume a lot of spiritual energy, and if he encounters some more powerful beasts later, he will inevitably suffer; if he bypasses the giant snake, the trees on both sides of this road are dense, and the thorns are all over the place, so he has to abandon the horse, so that the leg strength of the substitute will be gone.

When Yin Jiuchen was distressed, he suddenly found that there was movement from the black snake's side, and it seemed that he had met someone.

The quiet situation was broken, and the black snake rolled in the middle of the road, and the surrounding area was suddenly filled with smoke and dust, and rubble was scattered everywhere. Yin Jiuchen couldn't see the specific battle situation clearly, but the slight vibration transmitted from the ground could feel the fierceness of the battle. The trees in the battle area were swept down by the force, and the serpent's roar mixed with the roar of a human drew his gaze.

Soon, the battle came to an abrupt end, and it was clear that one side had lost, and the sound of high-speed swinging of iron tools came from the center of the smoke, and the dust was swept away, revealing the outcome of the battle.

The black snake fell to the ground, his body was covered with large and small wounds, the most fatal was a huge wound to the head, which was obviously killed by this blow. On the road shattered by the battle, several figures stood solemnly, the most conspicuous being a strong man standing in front of him holding a giant sword. The strong man seemed to feel Yin Jiuchen's gaze, turned his head to stare in this direction, Yin Jiuchen jumped off the tree, turned over on the horse, and told Xia Lian to cover his face and drive the horse forward.

No matter what, the other party has helped him clear the obstacles, and he should be grateful, just hope that nothing else will happen.

As the horses walked in, both sides were watching each other. Judging from the equipment, there should be a mercenary team on the opposite side, in addition to the big snake on the ground, there is also a lifeless white spotted tiger in the team, which is hunting? Yin Jiuchen observed carefully, but found that this team was a little abnormal.

Generally speaking, it is better to leave hunting to professional hunters, who have professional identification and tracking skills, and will also formulate a plan with a high success rate according to the different habits of the prey. Mercenaries, on the other hand, are generally to escort goods and deal with some personal commissions. Is it important to escort this white spotted tiger?

In addition, there was a gloomy man standing alone in the group, who was neither involved in the battle nor in handling the spoils of war, and he was standing beside the white striped tiger, his face covered by a hood, and he was not a member of the team, and was clearly not a member of the team. Could it be the employer?

Coming to the mercenary team, Yin Jiuchen retracted his thoughts, and first bowed his hand to the strong man: "Thank you seniors for getting rid of road troubles, if it weren't for the seniors, many travelers would have a headache." ”

The strong man seemed to be a hearty person, and after examining Yin Jiuchen and Xia Lian hidden behind Yin Jiuchen, he waved his hand after making sure that it was just an ordinary passerby: "It was this beast who blocked the road first, and didn't let us pass, just do it, don't thank you." ”

Yin Jiuchen nodded yes, and bowed his hands to the team members, and the team members also responded one by one, only the gloomy man was unmoved, and Yin Jiuchen didn't care, and drove away.

After a long time, when Yin Jiuchen's figure was gone, the gloomy man suddenly spoke:

"I want him dead. ”
