230 Night Raid

The death of the Xin family and the empress did not have much impact on Qingzhou, and as soon as the verdict of the Xin family came, the emperor's impartiality made the people excited, thinking that the emperor was a Ming monarch.

Only those who guessed that the Xin family was ruined by a conspiracy only felt cold about this result.

Li Shuhua didn't know the truth, the fall of the Xin family and the death of the queen made her regretful, and occasionally in the dead of night, she couldn't help but pull Shang Shigong to talk in a low voice, feeling that the emperor was too ruthless.

Shang Shigong had already guessed that this time the matter must be very difficult, and the forces behind the scenes must be very terrifying, so as to contribute to such a result in a short period of time. He didn't dare to tell Li Shuhua about his speculation, firstly, because he was worried that he would cause trouble to the merchants, and secondly, he really didn't want Li Shuhua to be sad because of this matter.

Li Shuhua is kind-hearted, if she knew that the Xin family was ruined by a conspiracy, the queen's death would probably not be simple, she was afraid that she would be very sad, and she would be even more chilled by the emperor's approach. However, Shang Shigong felt that the emperor did this because he was ruthless.

But this is all his speculation, and there is no need to tell Li Shuhua.

Regarding the affairs of the Xin family, Shang Shigong was also chilling in his heart, not because he felt that the emperor was too ruthless, but because he was worried that one day he would follow in the footsteps of the Xin family. But he understands better that although power harms people, if there is no power, it will really become meat on other people's boards.

In order to protect his wife and children, even if the road is full of thorns and barbs, he has to grit his teeth and go down.

After Shang Jinxiu knew about this, he couldn't help but think of Anton Hua. Anton Hua is not very old, this time the mother clan was destroyed, and the queen mother died. He also lost his position as crown prince. Such a person is afraid that it will be difficult to survive in the deep palace.

It's a shame. An Donghua's temperament is not bad, and if he ascends the throne in the future, he will definitely become a generation of Ming Jun. It's a pity that the times are uneven, and it is destined to miss the big position. I don't know which of his younger brothers will ascend the throne as emperor in the future, and what kind of person he will be.

Shang Jinxiu thought about it, and suddenly felt that he was afraid that he would have to make plans for a good life. Since Anton Hua will be assassinated when he comes to Qingzhou City, then someone must know that he is here. It won't be someone else who wants his life, it must be someone from the palace.

So, if the other party labels the merchant as Antonhua, wouldn't the merchant be dangerous?

Coupled with Cheng Xibo's previous incident, Shang Jinxiu felt more and more that time was pressing. Practice. Earning money and developing power, it seems that more than half a year has passed.

On this night, the merchant suddenly ushered in twenty black-clothed killers!

Shang Jinxiu doesn't need to sleep at all now, he only needs to meditate and cultivate, not only will he not feel tired, but the effect is even better than cultivation. So as soon as these twenty people appeared, Shang Jinxiu found out.

Her gaze was cold, and the next moment she had teleported to those killers. But because she used the power of space to wrap herself. The killers couldn't see her.

The killers were silent and ghostly. Shang Jinxiu knew that the comer was not good, so she didn't dare to delay for a moment, and rushed directly into the killer. By this time, the killers had been somewhat scattered. The moment she rushed in, she created several narrow spatial rifts.

Those killers were caught off guard, and three of them were already beheaded by Shang Jinxiu in one face, and four were seriously injured. There were also five minor injuries.

The rest were avoided because they were far apart, or because they were dexterous.

The sudden and strange attack caused the killers to be confused in an instant. If there really is an opponent, it would be fine, but they can't see Shang Jinxiu at all. This unknown adversary is even more terrifying.

But after all, these people have undergone rigorous training, and after the initial panic, they quickly calmed down. Their heads and faces were covered in black scarves, revealing only a pair of eyes, and they were now looking around warily, trying to find their hidden opponents.

At this moment, Lan Qi, who sensed the movement, came out with a sword. As soon as she saw the black-clothed killer, her face changed, and the next moment someone had quickly rushed over. At the same time, five uninjured black-clad killers surrounded Lan Qi.

The rest of the people continued to look around warily.

If Shang Jinxiu hadn't appeared, the killers would have entered the room and started killing. Shang Jinxiu's sudden appearance made them lose their manpower with a single face, not to mention the three who died, and the action of the four seriously injured has been greatly reduced. Even if there are five minor injuries, mobility will be affected.

They are afraid of their opponents hiding in the dark, and they are very vigilant at this time, for fear that they will accidentally fall into the plot, and where will they dare to turn around and kill people.

Shang Jinxiu hid in the dark, she looked at the four seriously injured people back to back with cold eyes, smiled coldly, her fingers popped out a wisp of spatial power to entangle these four people, and the next moment, a slender spatial crack suddenly appeared, and before the four people could react, their necks had been cut.

This is a new skill that Shang Jinxiu has cultivated after the fourth level, she creates spatial cracks more freely, as long as she uses the power of space to entangle the other party, and then tear the space, it is difficult for the opponent to escape.

Of course, that doesn't mean she's invincible. If you encounter a master and the power of space is shattered by the other party, then the subsequent spatial crack will naturally not be able to come out.

What she can do now is to shorten the time to create a tear in the space, so that the other party can't reflect it, and there is no way to avoid it.

Lan Qi is entangled by five killers, and she is temporarily unable to do anything. Still, she kept some attention on the remaining killers. Seeing the sudden death of the four killers, she knew that the mysterious master should be nearby at this moment.

Although I don't know what purpose the other party is following Shang Jinxiu, it is obvious that this is not the time to care about this. Knowing that the other party was there, she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and tried her best to deal with the killer in front of her.

On the other hand, the death of the four killers made the remaining killers even more frightened. Then, a person suddenly took out a porcelain vase and was about to open it, and Shang Jinxiu guessed that there must be something wrong with the porcelain vase. As soon as her mind moved, the wrist of the man holding the porcelain vase was instantly cut off.

A suppressed scream sounded, Shang Jinxiu wrapped the porcelain bottle with the power of space, directly took the object in the air, wrapped the contents of the porcelain bottle with the power of space, and then used the traction of the power of space to send the contents of the porcelain bottle into the killer's nostrils.

She had already sensed that the porcelain vase contained a medicinal liquid, which should be highly poisonous. However, it was clear that this potion was not useful to these black-clad killers.

Shang Jinxiu was a little disappointed in her heart, her favorite thing was to retaliate with a tooth for a tooth, these people dared to poison, she wanted to let them all taste the taste of being poisoned by her own poison. It's a pity that God didn't fulfill people's wishes, and she was destined to be disappointed this time.

The remaining killers were obviously very jealous of Shang Jinxiu, but unfortunately they didn't even know where Shang Jinxiu was hiding. The space isolated all perception, and they were not only blind and deaf in front of Shang Jinxiu, but even their perception of danger was blocked.

The next moment, several staggered spatial cracks suddenly appeared, these cracks were no more than a hair thin, and the spatial power needed to tear them apart was not much, but it was more difficult to control. As soon as these spatial cracks appeared, the eight killers went directly to half of them.

Another unlucky one crashed into another spatial crack while dodging, and amputated his limb directly from the knee. This time he completely lost his ability to move, and could only fall to the ground in pain.

The faces of the rest of the people hidden under the black scarf had already turned pale with fright, and no one expected that they were just here to deal with a small prefect, and they would actually meet such a terrible master!

Seeing that the alarmed people came out one after another, Shang Jinxiu didn't dare to delay any longer, she directly attacked the remaining three killers with her spiritual power, and directly killed them with a spatial crack while they paused for a short time.

Looking at Lan Qi's side, it is obviously difficult to deal with the five killers. Shang Jinxiu also attacked with mental power, and the movements of the five people immediately paused for a moment, and Lan Qi cleverly seized this opportunity and killed all five people.

It was also these killers who were too tightly entangled, so that Lan Qi could succeed with one blow.

In the blink of an eye, only the amputated one of the twenty killers was still alive, and the rest were all executed. However, the man saw that all the others were dead, and without hesitation, he bit through the medicine hidden in his mouth, and instantly vomited black blood and died.

Lan Qi sighed, seeing that many people had already come out, and it was not good to say words of gratitude to the people who were secretly getting along. Soon, Shang Shigong also came out, and after he looked at the corpse on the ground and Lan Qi, he immediately said gratefully: "Thanks to Mr. Lan tonight, otherwise it would be ......"

Lan Qi had already frowned and pulled down the black scarf on the killer's face, these killers all had a passerby's face, and at first glance they couldn't tell the calendar at all. Lan Qi lowered her voice and said to Shang Shigong: "This matter is wrong, if it weren't for that senior tonight, the merchant would be in danger." ”

Shang Shigong's face turned pale, and he also lowered his voice and asked Lan Qi: "Mr. Lan, who do you think these people will send here?" ”

This is also what Lan Qi wants to know, she said in a low voice: "It's strange here, the origin of these killers is not ordinary, and it is definitely not ordinary people who can invite them, it stands to reason that you are just a Qingzhou prefect, and you are not targeting anyone, who will want to kill you?" ”

Shang Shigong couldn't figure it out, so he decided to tell Qi Feng about it as soon as it was dawn.

Lan Qi checked all the men in black again, but found no clues except for the medicine bottles on their bodies. She didn't find it, but Shang Jinxiu had already identified the murderer. Because the medicine bottle that the murderer took out was exactly the same as the medicine bottle she searched from Cheng Xibo!

Not only the appearance of the medicine bottle, but also the contents inside, are the same!

Obviously, these killers and Cheng Xibo are in the same group! They came to the merchant to kill people, does it mean that the 'Venerable Lord' has already discovered her? No, it's not! If that 'Venerable Lord' really found her, then he would definitely know that with her strength, these killers were no match for her at all!

But what if it's a temptation? Shang Jinxiu's heart was completely panicked. (To be continued......)
