The Assassination Hall of the Dark Candle Gate is a strange place, and when Shen Xi wakes up, he is in the middle of a lake island. The lake is so clear that you can see the fish in the water, and occasionally there will be a mentally ill silver carp jumping out of the water, I don't know if I want to exercise or just brain pumping.

The shore of the island is made of granite, much higher than the water, and if you want to land on the island, you must pass through the only pier on the island, and of course there are a hundred ways to get ashore for those who are high. Zong Ying is obviously a person with high cultivation, she carried Shen Xi, stepped on the water, and swept directly ashore.

Shen Xi stood on the shore, very confused, looked up at Zong Ying, and said, "What are you bringing me to do?"

Zong Ying said: "I have already said that I will accept you as an apprentice."

Shen Xi said, "What can you teach me?"

"I can teach you to kill."

"But I don't want to kill."

Zong Ying said, "If you don't kill people, then you will die now."

"I don't have a choice?"

"Yes, you don't have a choice. From now on, you have to call me master. ”

Shen Xi said, "I should call you hall master."

"Why don't you want to call me master?"

"The gentlemen at the school never let me kill people, they only taught me to read. If you teach me to kill, I will not be your apprentice, but your instrument. ”

Zong Ying smiled, "You're such a weird child. ”

"Is it because I'm a weird kid that you're going to take me and kill someone?"

"I always do what I want, there is no why, only what I think." Zong Ying said, "You can call me whatever you want." If you want to run, I won't stop you. There are many fifth-order demon beasts in the water, and with your cultivation, I'm afraid there will be problems even landing on the shore. ”

Shen Xi subconsciously glanced at the lake. It's over, and it's a den of thieves.

The outer perimeter of the island lake is pristine, with rolling mountains, running rivers and dense trees, and it is only after the mountains that you can see the clusters of buildings at the foot of the mountains. The houses are very old, all made of wood on stilts. The island of the lake is damp, and that's all. The house can be dried, and if it is built directly on the ground, as in the capital. If you live in it, your body will be covered with rashes.

When he arrived at the bottom of the mountain, Shen Xi felt gloomy and unpopular. She didn't see a single person. It always feels like it's filled with mist, which makes people unreal, and it feels dreamy. The disciples of the Assassination Hall are all over the world, even the capital of the Great Yang Kingdom has not been missed, why is the main hall so lonely, like a cemetery where no one worships. The Candle Gate is an eerie place, and it is synonymous with death. Shen Xi wanted to know what kind of woman Zong Ying was.

The Assassination Hall is also such a stilted building. It's just taller than a normal house. There was a plaque hanging from the door, and it was empty. It's like a whiteboard in mahjong. The plaque is used to mark, and if there is nothing written on it, it loses its meaning.

Crossing the threshold, there is a wide main hall with a heroic and dashing man standing in the hall. He has straight eyebrows and a high nose, but his expression is very cold, and there is no emotion in his eyes, like a puppet in the shape of a human. He said mechanically, "Hall Master."

Zong Ying patted Shen Xi on the shoulder and said, "Arrange a room for her."

"Yes, hall master."

Shen Xi was very uncomfortable and wanted to run away immediately, but she knew that with her current cultivation, there was nothing she could do at all, she could only be obedient and suffer less. Soon, Shen Xi had his own room. The room was as simple as a prison, with only a wooden bed and a thin quilt on the bed. She sat on the edge of the bed and thought to herself, no wonder the Dark Candle Gate wants to invade the Great Central Kingdom, who wants to stay in this kind of broken condition, in comparison, the rich Great Central Kingdom is simply a paradise on earth.

The conversation between Zong Ying and Taiwei Qiu revealed a lot more information than expected. Huqing School has been attacked by demon beasts recently, not because of the demon beast's autonomous behavior, but because it was controlled by the Dark Candle Gate, and I don't know what method Zong Ying used. The dark candle gate is bound to win the central country. The appearance of the Divine Eye made the people of Longquan Immortal Mountain panic, and their cultivation was locked, and it made all immortal cultivators have a sense of crisis.

From what Zong Ying said, it can be determined that the Dark Candle Gate is about to launch a general attack, which requires a lot of manpower, and Shen Xi is just an incidental. Since she has been arrested from the Huqing Academy, she will be taken directly to the Dark Candle Gate to act as some kind of tool. Shen Xi is not an innocent child, knowing that Zong Ying is definitely not kind enough to spare her life, she must be of better use.

Sure enough, Shen Xi stayed in this prison-like room for two whole days, eating, drinking, and lazing in it, disgusting to death. It's not that Shen Xi is honest and hasn't thought about escaping. The room had no windows at all, only a door. In the past two days, she has not seen Zong Ying again, as if she has been forgotten. Shen Xi thought to herself, even if someone came to talk to her now, it would be fine.

Her wish was soon granted, and the grim man who had brought her here appeared, leading her out of the stilted building and into the mountains on the outskirts of the island.

In a clearing in the mountains, there stood two dozen children who were only twelve or thirteen years old. These children did not look like children at all, and their expressions were indifferent, as if they were experienced killers. They didn't look at Shen Xi, they stood upright like a benchmark. They were dressed in black night clothes, just like the killers who assassinated Shen Xi when they were in the capital.

Shen Xi glanced at the cold man.

The grim man put his hands behind his back, faced the child who was standing neatly, and said, "The person in front of you is your prey from now on." She is a student of Huqing Academy, and she has the cultivation of the early stage of foundation building. She will be released, and after a pillar of incense, you will arrest her. Just kill her, and all of you can leave the main hall and become real killers. ”

Only then did Shen Xi understand that the real purpose of Zong Ying bringing her here turned out to be this kind of use. Shen Xi smiled bitterly, she seemed to have been hunted down and killed all her life, she thought that after being reborn, the situation would be better, but she didn't expect fate to play a big joke with her, no matter what, she would be hunted down. In the past, her cultivation was high, and she was not afraid of chasing and killing, but now her cultivation is so low, and she has to be chased and killed by more than 20 people, which is really elevating her.

The cold man turned to Shen Xi and said, "Do you understand? ”

"Is there a chance I'll survive?"

"Impossible."

"I'll kill them all."

"You can't."

"You should give me a weapon, it's fair enough."

"No, you're the prey."

"You'll regret it."

"I won't. You only have a pillar of incense to run away. See the incense in that incense burner, it's very windy today. ”

"Damn it!" Shen Xi could only run first. She must find a suitable place to hide, carefully observe the enemy's formation, only by understanding the enemy deeply, can she better solve the enemy, know the enemy, and survive a hundred battles. (To be continued......)
