Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Death of Jing Ke
The title killer comes from the original eight-tailed fox guard, and it is only after entering the Spring and Autumn Continent in the last year or two that he has been given a new definition, taking the three titles of Jing Ke, Nie Zheng and Yin Niang respectively, and among them, Zhan Yibai is undoubtedly the latest to come in.

If you want to talk about seniority, Zhan Yibai is undoubtedly the weakest among the nine. It's just that their identity is an assassin after all, and the assassin values strength more than his seniority.
And the biggest reason why Zhan Yibai can occupy a leading position now is that it is inextricably related to his last mission.
single-handedly, he entered Danyang, the capital of Chu State, and successfully assassinated the King of Chu and Gongzi Xiao, just this record is enough to make other title killers look sideways.
You must know that before this, there was another Jing Ke who had performed a similar task, but unfortunately, that time, not only did he not kill the King of Chu, but even accompanied his own life.
Compared with the two, not to mention the title killer, even the highest level of the Fox Guard Prison has attracted special attention. After investigating the whole story, he did not hesitate to hand over the command of the assassination operation to Zhan Yibai.
For this decision, the other title killers, although they may not be convinced, are more just jealous, just like the snake spirit man and the female man just now, they complain a little, but that's all.
And the cooperation of the six title killers this time also proves once again that Zhan Yibai is not bad.
The whole plan was laid out seamlessly, and although it seemed to others to be a bit of a fuss, it had to be applauded.
First of all, he secretly bewitched the countless killers gathered in Yingcheng, and set up a situation of catching turtles in an urn in that part of the city, and at the same time made good use of Zhanbai's possible reaction, and secretly arranged all his forces on this path, thus setting up such a killing situation.
The plan is perfect, and the reality is ...... has also verified Zhan Yibai's foresight one by one, so now, all that remains is to reap the results.
But it is this most critical link that has undergone a lot of twists and turns.
No one knew what kind of thinking the high-level of the Fox Guard Prison had in mind, and they actually sent six killers in a row to cooperate, which was absolutely unprecedented. Perhaps it was taken for granted, so the top management did not realize the potential dangers of such an arrangement.
The Title Killer is the top assassin in the entire Fox Guard Prison. Any one of them is enough to create an extremely hot topic for the Spring and Autumn Continent. It is precisely like this, although each killer has a different personality, without exception, he is arrogant.
The least favorite thing for a proud person is to share. When it comes to the profession of an assassin, the biggest taboo is teaming up with people.
If the target is tricky, there may be excusable circumstances, but for the title killer, in the past, at most two people joined forces, and now the situation of six people joining forces is simply unimaginable.
The target is only one person, and it doesn't seem to be powerful, so who will carry out the final kill has undoubtedly become a huge problem.
It's impossible to join forces, not to mention others, even Zhan Yibai himself will feel too embarrassed. After consulting with the other five, the decision to fight the wheels was finally made.
One-on-one, as for others, they play more of a multi-insurance role, in order to achieve the purpose of killing Zhanbai.
With this general direction, and after many rounds of bargaining, the sorting of the wheel battle was finally recognized by everyone, except for the snake spirit man.
The tragedy of the snake spirit man lies in his combat power, which is the weakest of the six. Since the fist is not hard, naturally there is no right to speak. Coupled with his special relationship with the female man, he was finally excluded from the list of assassinating Zhanbai, but only to deal with the possible expert guards around Zhanbai, of course, it was Chu Chi.
In the original ordering, Zhan Yibai became the first person.
It's a pity that the plan can't catch up with the changes, and after perceiving the difference in Zhanbai's state, Zhan Yibai finally couldn't bear it and gave up this right. And Jing Ke, another person who was originally ranked fourth, gave a reason that was difficult for others to refuse, and replaced him.
And the other Jing Ke is the tall and thin swordsman in front of Zhanbai.
After the two of them had some unnutritious trash talk, the tall and thin knife man no longer had the slightest interest in talking, and his slender right arm slowly stretched out behind his back.
Draw the knife.
"I don't know why the top of the hierarchy attaches so much importance to you, but now it seems that with your current state, you may not be able to take my knife." Perhaps because he felt that he was a little invincible, before making a move, the swordsman Jing Ke rarely said a long sentence.
This time, Zhanbai remained silent, not because he didn't want to say it, but because he felt that it was meaningless.
Some of the swordsman's words were also suspicious.
Looking at the actions of these top killers with the same title in front of them, almost all of them acted alone, but in order to deal with a "little person" of their own, they would launch such a big battle, which is unjustifiable in any case.
However, doubts are doubts, and the other party doesn't know it, so what's the point of asking it yourself.
In contrast, instead of wasting energy thinking about what is and is not, it is better to think more about how to get out.
No one noticed that Zhanbai's right hand, hidden in the long sleeve, was covered with beads of sweat because it was holding the ebony box too tightly.
Since stripping off the godhead, although Zhanbai has relied on a large amount of pills, his current cultivation has returned to the Taiyi realm, but in the face of these top assassins, he is still powerless.
Zhan Bai has not lost his understanding of the way of the sword, but without the support of cultivation, once any exquisite sword move loses its speed and strength, it is just a fist and an embroidered leg.
Nowadays, all the sustenance of Zhanbai can only rely on ...... Godhead. But even so, he still didn't have the slightest confidence in his heart.
The current godhead is still too immature, whether it can withstand the attacks of these top assassins, even Zhanbai has no idea.
has no confidence, and is facing death, so how can Zhanbai not be nervous, his heart is simply blocked in his throat.
"Looks like you don't want to talk anymore, then...... I'll send you away. The swordsman Jing Ke saw that Zhan Bai was reluctant to say more, and the knife in his hand was immediately slowly raised.
It was a narrow knife that was four feet long and narrow, with a slight curve on the blade, but the tip of the knife seemed to have been cut off to become a straight diagonal line. Some are similar to the swords of the previous life, but there are quite a few differences.
The long knife was raised high above the top, and for a moment it trembled sharply, and there was a ghostly roar.
This made Zhanbai can't help but think of a legend in this world, which can be simply described in three words as "a ghost under the knife".
It is said that there is a strange and unpredictable knife in this world, but all the creatures who die under this kind of knife will not enter reincarnation, nor will they be crushed by the way of heaven, but will turn into ghosts, which will be absorbed into the body of the knife, and will never be able to turn over.
Could it be ......
didn't give Zhanbai a chance to think about it, and the swordsman Jing Ke fell.
Draw the knife and cut off the water, describing the speed of the knife and the advantage of the knife, and at this time, it is too appropriate to describe the simple and unpretentious chopping of the knife master Jing Ke.
For a moment, it seemed that time had stood still, the void was shattered, and all that filled the white eyes was a knife light that made people's hearts palpitate.
"Go ahead, and hope you don't let me down." Zhan Bai sighed in his heart, and with a slight force on the thumb of his right hand, he popped the ebony box out of his sleeve.
Let Zhanbai make up his mind to rely on the ebony box, no, it should be the contents of it, the only reason is that he believes that he, who bears Fuxi and Haotian's last wishes, should ...... Not a short-lived ghost.
It sounds like a bit of a cover-up, or a superstition, but I have to say that this reason has become the only reason why Zhanbai has not collapsed so far.
Whew, Whew......
In just an instant, before the sword light fell on Zhanbai's head, the ebony box rolled sideways and appeared in everyone's field of vision.
Ping!!!
Because all eyes were attracted by the sudden flash of the ebony box, for a while, no one even noticed that a two-foot short sword suddenly appeared on top of Zhanbai's head, blocking the almost killing slash.
The swords struck each other, making a crisp sound, which was so pleasant, like a zither playing.
The swordsman Jing Ke was the first to wake up, and shifted his gaze from the ebony box that was still rolling in mid-air, and when he saw the short sword that was blocking his long knife, his eyes couldn't help but radiate a terrifying essence.
"That's ...... Magic weapon? The Yin Niang who was sweeping the array on the side also saw the short sword and couldn't help but question.
"Maybe, or maybe not." Zhan Yibai's answer was ambiguous, and the wrinkled forehead exposed the worry in his heart.
For some reason, the appearance of this short sword made Zhan Yibai feel uneasy in his heart, and there was an indescribable kindness in the uneasiness.
On the other side, seeing that the godhead successfully blocked the attack of the swordsman Jing Ke, Zhanbai felt a little relieved in his heart, and at the same time, he did not forget to take two steps back quietly, for fear of being injured by the sword qi that might **** out.
"It's not that easy." The swordsman Jing Ke didn't seem to be too surprised, and his face turned red with excitement, "Should this be your life-saving thing?" Then let me ruin it completely. ”
"Ghost Forest, Knife Domain, break it for me."
Wow, whew......
The sound of the ghost roar became more and more poignant, and it was endless, even Zhan Yibai and the others couldn't bear it and retreated again and again, as for Zhan Bai, there were two long blood marks left on his ears.
A black gas suddenly grew wildly on the long knife, conjuring up hideous grimaces one after another, looking up to the sky and screaming.
It was visible to the naked eye that a trace of black qi actually climbed up the blade of the short sword along the junction of the swords.
"Be careful, there's something weird about this black gas." Zhanbai's heart jumped violently, and he unconsciously reminded.
Click!
In fact, there is no need to be reminded, the short sword transformed by the godhead has already discovered that something is wrong, and with the continuous sound of the crushing of the machine, a lot of parts and components suddenly piled up on the original ancient sword body, interlocking each other, covering all the short swords, and it looks as if the short sword is covered with a layer of metal armor.
Xiuxiu...... Roar...... Hiss...... Sigh Rhythm ......
Several completely different beast roars kept coming from the short sword, and it sounded like the sound of a tiger and a leopard, the sound of a snake, mixed with the cry of a horse, and several sounds, but it was impossible to guess what kind of creature it came from.
The black qi that had originally climbed the sword body seemed to have found a nemesis, and it shrank back violently as if it had been electrocuted in the roar of the beast.
"It's ...... The set of armor that Ning Xiaoning gave? Zhan Bai guessed in his heart.
Click, click!!
The "armor" on top of the dagger is still superimposing, causing it to grow in size until it is the size of an adult.
At this time, the "short sword", no, can no longer be called short, and there is not even a trace of the shape of the sword, it is more like an iron man with no limbs.
Qiang !!!
Only the sound of the deep sword roar is still telling everyone its essence.
At this time, the swordsman Jing Ke's face was ugly, this ugliness was not because his action to kill Zhanbai was blocked, but more because of the ...... in front of him People are not swords, and swords are not swords.
Well, forgive the swordsman Jing Ke for describing it like this, I really can't find more words in his quotations to replace.
What effect the heavy beast roar from the short sword just now would have on outsiders, the swordsman Jing Ke didn't know, but he himself deeply felt the ...... from the depths of his soul Fear.
Fear, such a strange word, if it weren't for today, he would have even forgotten this feeling.
In order to practice the sword, he was deliberately arranged into a ghost domain, and it was there that he saw countless terrifying existences, and over time, when fear became numb, there would naturally be no fear.
But now......
Nemesis, this weird short sword in front of him is definitely the nemesis of his own exercises.
This is the only reason that the swordsman Jing Ke can convince himself.
But the facts ...... Is that really the case?
Quack!!
A crisp sound, in the roar of the ghost howling beast, it was easy to be ignored, but it made the swordsman Jing Ke's face shocked.
As far as the eye could see, the long knife in his hand had an extra gap in the third of the blade.
Curled the blade?
No way, this knife is ......
The swordsman Jing Ke didn't have time to think about it, but he was shocked by everything he witnessed later.
There was another gap in the blade, and the missing corner was eaten by the "short sword" that suddenly cracked a "mouth".
"It's eating its own knife!!!!"
For a while, the knife man Jing Ke only felt that his scalp was numb, and the joints of his hands and feet trembled slightly.
A strange weapon is eating another weapon, this kind of thing, not to mention seeing it, even if you have never heard of it.
The two bites of "food" seemed to make the "short sword" appetite greater, and it was not criticized by some people, so it immediately became even more intensified.
Click!!!
It was like an adult-sized iron man stick suddenly cracked open from it, like a fish's mouth, and in one bite, it actually swallowed the entire long knife into its abdomen, no, not only that, but it also included half of the arm of the swordsman Jing Ke.
Yes!!!!
The sharp pain caused by the broken arm finally made the knife man Jing Ke wake up from his sluggishness, let out a terrible scream, and retreated in endless fear.
The smell of blood, and it was mixed with the smell of blood from the extremely refined and innocent element, which greatly stimulated the short sword.
Although this taste is not as delicious as the master's blood, it is really not much resistance to the dagger who is no longer hungry all the time.
Want to run for food?
Don't.
Come to the bowl, no, it's the mouth.
In an instant, the dagger finally showed its most hideous side in front of everyone. The entire sword body completely turned into a bottomless mouth, and it chased after it in an instant.
"Come and save ......" The swordsman Jing Ke didn't even have time to finish the cry for help, and as soon as his vision darkened, he had already completely entered the big mouth.
"Hiccup!" (To be continued.) )
