Yongding City, North Gate.

The rainy season in spring is always so unpredictable, the sound of the rain that was still dripping at the last moment turned into a drifting rain in the blink of an eye, pouring down, and in an instant, the streets and alleys were flooded.

In the middle of the night, sparse figures hurriedly shuttle through the streets and alleys, occasionally bringing with them the sound of footsteps and stagnant water.

At this time, the three figures were walking briskly on this street, Gu Xinhai was drunk, supported by Shangguan Bo, Gu Qiuyi held a butter umbrella for them, but the shoes and trouser legs were already wet.

The three of them continued to walk, and suddenly saw several figures standing at the gate of the city not far ahead, and they stood straight like this.

Maybe it was the heavy rain in the night that blocked some of their vision, and it felt like they were dressed in black, and they didn't have any rain shelter, so they were completely exposed to the heavy rain, but they looked extremely natural and harmonious, as if they were born to be in that position.

The three of them paused in their footsteps, and when they came about five meters closer and saw the figure in front of them, the three immediately stopped.

In front of them were ten figures, all dressed in a robe, wearing straw hats, with black veils on their faces, looking ahead, each holding a long sword in their hands, the sword was unsheathed, but there were some slight ripples in the air!

Gu Qiuyi raised his head, a trace of alertness flashed in his eyes, and Zou frowned. The ten people in front of them did not exude any mystical power fluctuations, but the air was filled with a surging aura, and an incomparably awe-inspiring killing intent!

It's a swordsman!!

"Xiaobo, you go first!"

Gu Qiuyi's heart skipped a beat, turned his head and whispered, and said to Li Youran beside him.

Shangguan Bo also realized the seriousness of the situation, his face was full of solemnity, his eyes were fixed on the front, and he slowly spoke: "This ...... What about my brother-in-law?"

"You take Gu Xinhai back to Gu's house first, don't worry about me, I have my own way, if I can't fight, I can escape, I am first-class in my ability to escape." Besides, their target is me. Gu Qiuyi said in an irresistible tone.

"Okay, brother-in-law, take care, I'll go back and find my sister to save you immediately!" Shangguan Bo glanced at Gu Xinhai, who was full of alcohol beside him, and then at the group of figures in front of him.

Looking at the backs of the two of them who quickly disappeared, Gu Qiuyi took a deep breath, slowly put away the butter umbrella in his hand, and then gently placed it on the ground behind him that was not soaked by the rain.

This butter umbrella was borrowed by the maid named "Howling Girl" when they left Yihong Courtyard, although the workmanship was rough and there were two small holes, but after all, it was a piece of kindness from others, and Gu Qiuyi didn't want to wait for a fight and damage other people's things.

Gu Qiuyi turned his head again and looked at the row of figures in front of him, from beginning to end, these ten figures stood like sculptures in the rainy night, standing still, but their eyes were always staring at Gu Qiuyi.

The rain became heavier and heavier, and neither camp spoke, nor did they hold umbrellas, but stood quietly in the rain, bathed in the pity, waiting for an opportunity, to be precise, brewing a stronger killing machine......

"If my guess is correct, your target is me!" Gu Qiuyi said indifferently.

With the status of the Gu family in Yongding City, no one dares to go against the Gu family in person, even the city lord Gerard does not dare, the first is the strength of the Gu family patriarch, the second is that in recent years, the Gu family has monopolized most of the economic lifeline of Yongding City, water and land freight, grain relief, Xuanshi trading, etc., are all taken care of by the Gu family, and third, the two families of the Gu family and the Shangguan family have just married, as long as they are not fools, they will not choose to come to trouble at this moment.

Last night's Nalan Invincible was abolished by himself, presumably the Nalan family behind him will not give up. Gu Qiu Yike clearly knew that one of the four major families in Yongding City had long been resentful of the Gu family's monopoly on economic power, and they had the ambition to dominate Yongding City.

If they wanted to make a move, it wouldn't be surprising.

Gu Qiuyi slowly raised his arm, took out two Pu knives from the Xuanling ring, the Tianya Desperate Bow and the Sunset Arrow, neatly equipped, and rubbed the two Pu knives into his sleeves, these two Pu knives were about two feet long, the knife edge was sharp, and the rain splashed on the knife surface, the snow was bright and traceless, faintly flashing with cold light.

The last time he encountered the ambush of the fire gopher in the back mountain, Gu Qiuyi, who did not bring a self-defense weapon, suffered a big loss, and now he has learned a lesson and takes these three weapons with him anytime and anywhere.

Finally, after a while, the figure in the middle of the front moved, he slowly raised his arm, wiped a handful of water droplets on his forehead, and then held the hilt of the sword with his right hand, still staring at Gu Qiuyi.

"You, only one person!"

The man in black in the middle spoke leisurely, his voice was cold without a trace of waves, like a nightmare like death, shrouded in the entire black night rain.

"One, that's enough. Enough to kill you. ”

Gu Qiuyi disagreed, still rubbing the Pu knife in his hand, as if he was sharpening the knife in battle, and then said: "If I guessed correctly, you are the ones who kill the building, and only the person who kills the building, you can use so many assassins at one time!"

From the moment he felt their breath, Gu Qiuyi was already convinced that they were the ones who killed the building.

Kill Lou, the second-rate force of the Dongzhou Empire, the power is all over the Dongzhou Empire, they have a huge investigation system within the organization, assassination, tracking, killing monsters, treasure hunting, etc., and even ask them to find a kitten and a puppy, a lost brush, as long as the price is right, they will not hesitate to take over this business.

Because, as long as they make a move, there's nothing they can't do!

They have specially trained a group of swordsmen, all of whom have received strict training and are strong, and every time they perform a task, they will explain the aftermath in advance, not afraid of life and death, and will not give up if they do not complete the task.

It's not so much that they're a swordsman, it's that they're a dead man!

Because, they also have an iron law, that is, the identity of the client will be kept strictly confidential, no matter what the reason, even if it is dead, they will never disclose any information about the client. They will not kill the client because the other party is bidding higher.

It is this kind of faithfulness that has been twisted to the extreme that has allowed their power to grow rapidly in the Dongzhou Empire, and even a few first-class forces are never willing to provoke them easily, because they are crazy, out-and-out crazy!

"All I can tell you is that someone paid for your life. ”

The man in the middle spoke in a flat tone, without any expression on his face, and his coat was soaked in the rain, looking particularly hideous.

"Hahaha!" Gu Qiuyi laughed when he heard it, and then said, "Thank you, you can let them go." ”

"Rest assured, our target is you, not them, and we never kill innocents. Also, if you have any last words, we will also help you relay them. The man seemed to be extremely reluctant to speak, and after saying all the words in one breath, he chose to be silent, just like the hell Yama who judged death, and had directly pronounced Gu Qiuyi's death sentence without giving him any chance.

"Thanks, no need. In just a few back and forth conversations, Gu Qiuyi had already said thank you twice.

I don't know why, the other party is obviously here to take his life, but he can't afford to hate him, and there is still a trace of gratitude in his heart. It may be that they are willing to let go of their two companions, and they are willing to help convey their last words, which makes Gu Qiuyi feel awe.

But tonight, one of them will die!

When the words fell, there was a dead silence again, the opposing camp still didn't take the lead, Gu Qiuyi only polished the Pu Dao, his eyes were staring ahead, and he didn't make the next move.

The rain continued to splash on the ground, and it seemed to be getting heavier and heavier.

The timing of tonight's assassination was just right, because the rain and the night were the best accomplices. Any scattered blood stains and dirt will be washed away by the rain, and after tonight, the north gate of Yongding City will still be full of people, and no one will notice the sword light and sword shadow of last night.

Ten breaths later, the entire night sky moved, and the sound of a flying knife breaking through the air and splitting the rain sounded, and it flew towards the man in the middle in an instant, and the Pu knife shone brightly, turning into the thickest rain line in the night sky, containing the mysterious power of Gu Qiuyi's ten percent strength.

No one would have thought that he would be the first to do it, the weakest existence, a target who had already been put on the death list and ruthlessly obliterated!

I saw that the man in the middle did not dodge or dodge, and suddenly a long sword with silver light was out of the sheath, swinging horizontally, the moment the Pu knife touched the sword body, and was shocked by the powerful force and rebounded out, the Pu knife that lost the support of the Xuan Force was like a kite with a broken line, and crossed a poignant arc in the rain, and the next breath fell more than ten feet in front of Gu Qiuyi.

Flying knives are cold at night and cold in spring rain!

Then, the opponent's one-line camp collapsed, led by the man in the middle, and the remaining nine followed, all of them moved, and the ten figures flashed one after another, and within a breath, they had already surrounded Gu Qiuyi, and the cold light came out of the sheath, and the rain in the sky instantly became cold and cold.

The other nine also have the strength of the first and second levels of the Xuantu Realm!

"Heh! He actually sent ten masters above the Xuantu Realm to assassinate me! he really looks up to me!" Gu Qiuyi shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly, but his heart was already dripping blood, the knife just now already contained ten percent of his strength, but it was still easily resolved by the man in the middle, you can imagine the gap between himself and them.

Presumably, the man in black in the middle is not the leader.

The leading man waved his arm, and with the sword with him, he stabbed at Gu Qiuyi at an incredible speed, Gu Qiuyi flashed his waist to the left, and the Pu knife in his hand swept the momentum of the thousands of armies, and the sword collided, "ding" made a piercing and sharp sound sound, Gu Qiuyi was shocked and took a few steps back, his blood and qi surged, and before he could stand firmly, there were several cold lights behind him.

There was no way to avoid it, I saw Gu Qiuyi stepping on the ground with one foot, flipping with one heel, and accurately stepping on the sword body stabbed by one of the swordsmen, and then jumped high backwards with the power of the rebound, falling outside the encirclement of ten people.

Gu Qiuyi's move, the angle, body technique, strength, and timing are all brilliant, and it is absolutely beneficial, and at the same time as more than ten swordsmen make their swords, their bodies flash, and they have jumped out of the encirclement.

The leading man saw that Gu Qiuyi had already broken out of the encirclement as soon as he turned over, and his eyes also wiped a trace of surprise, and then his footsteps did not stop, and another sword slashed through the night sky, bringing up layers of wave marks, directly hitting Gu Qiuyi.

This sword is fast, accurate, and ruthless, and the range covered by the sword qi is just the direction where Gu Qiuyi is likely to escape, making it impossible for Gu Qiuyi to escape.

This is, a sword!!
