At the same time, a mansion in the stone city was lit up brightly.

A man in black with a ghost mask walked into the house and was led by a maid to the outside of a pavilion.

The man in black took off the ghost mask on his face, revealing the face of an old man, this person was the old man in black who appeared on the mountain road before.

In the center of the pavilion, there is a young woman wearing a pink dress, the woman's skin is snow-white, green silk like a waterfall, she is veiled, she can only see a pair of moving eyes that seem to be full of autumn water, she is placed in front of the guzheng, and the jade fingers are plucked on the strings, playing a soft and beautiful piano music.

The old man in black waited quietly outside the pavilion, not daring to disturb the woman's Yaxing.

After the song is played, the aftermath lingers.

"Lord Xia."

The old man in black hurriedly stepped forward with a respectful attitude.

The masked woman gently wiped her slender jade fingers with white silk, and said casually, "How are things going?" ”

Her voice was very pleasant, like that of a beautiful bird.

"Shaochuanguchi took it, but Yue Chaoqun ...... was rescued, and Kong Yuan was also killed. The old man in black said.

"Who is so capable? can save people from your hands, the righteous path masters of Stone City, it shouldn't be too late to rescue. ”

The young woman was slightly surprised, but instead of being angry, she seemed to smile curiously.

The old man in black hurriedly said: "It's not the master of Shicheng, but a few young juniors of the righteous path, the one who is the leader of them claims to be Yun Tianhe, a true disciple of the Divine Consciousness Sect, but according to our verification, this person is not Yun Tianhe at all, his true identity is Ling Tianyu's son, Ling Chen." ”

"What, Ling Chen?"

Knowing that her subordinates had lost, the masked woman was not moved in the slightest, but after hearing the name Ling Chen, a smile appeared on her face and said, "Haha! What a surprising kid, in just a few months, he was able to kill Kong Yuan. ”

The black-robed old man's face was a little strange, how could he look at the other party's appearance, he didn't have a trace of sadness because of Kong Yuan's death, but was very happy because he heard that Ling Chen had killed Kong Yuan?

"According to the news transmitted back from the Divine Intention Gate, this Ling Chen, at a young age, has reached the tenth level of mental strength, and later he comprehended the sword intent, and his cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds, I am afraid that in the long run, he will become our henchman. Do you want to make a plan to get rid of him? ”

The old man in black made a throat-slitting motion.

"Get rid of it, why get rid of it? Ling Chen is the son of a saint, and he has the reputation of being a genius on the first day of martial arts, he will join my sect sooner or later, what are you going to do to get rid of him? The young woman waved her hand, dispelling the old man in black.

"My subordinates are worried that this Ling Chen will not be as easy to submit to my religion as you think." The old man in black didn't dare to argue, so he could only express his worries.

"You don't have to worry about this, what you have to do now is how to give me a way, how to get rid of that Yue Chaoqun as soon as possible, with him in Shicheng, it will be difficult for our army to capture this strong city." The young woman said coldly.

"However, now that Yue Chaoqun has entered the stone city and is protected by heavy soldiers, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky if he wants to kill him now."

The old man in black had a difficult face.

"No matter what method you use, assassination, poisoning, rebellion, you can do it, what I want is the result. The outpost in Stone City can be used when necessary. After speaking, the young woman also picked up her guzheng and walked towards the inner side of the courtyard.

"The operation I am responsible for has never failed. Last time I extinguished the Flame Sword Sect overnight, others thought I couldn't do it, but I did. You people, don't set me a bad precedent. ”

"I'm only giving you ten days. Next, if anyone dares to make a mistake again, I will hand him over to the Gu Dao people to deal with. ”

Although the young woman walked away, her voice came clearly.

"My subordinates understand."

Hearing the three words Gu Dao Man, the old man in black also trembled all over his body, Gu Dao Man is the top master of Gu worm art in the Holy Witch Sect, if the living person falls into his hands, he will be thrown to feed the Gu worm, and there will be no corpse.

This time to assassinate Yue Chaoqun, he was afraid that he would have to use the dark line planted in the high-level of Shicheng.

……

Seven days passed.

Stone City, inside a courtyard.

Ling Chen practiced the landscape swordsmanship, the first three moves have been practiced by him, starting from the fourth move, to the fifth move, the peak of the loop, belongs to the second weight of the swordsmanship, and the power will be raised by a notch.

If the first heavy landscape swordsmanship is to take advantage of the situation and temper the general trend of the landscape, then the second is to pay more attention to the artistic conception and highlight the artistic conception of the landscape contained in the swordsmanship.

A sword pierced out, as if there were thousands of mountains and rivers converging in this sword.

The second sword, the artistic conception changes abruptly, the peaks and loops turn, and the opponent can be caught off guard.

These two swords are integrated, and Ling Chen is confident that his swordsmanship can go to the next level.

Just when Ling Chen was concentrating on practicing his sword, not far away, there were four figures walking over.

It was Mu Feng, Mo Yu, Yan Ling, and Bai Qianxing.

Out of the corner of Ling Chen's eyes, he caught a glimpse of the four people, but he remained silent and continued to practice his sword.

He has been able to dismantle the intention of the four.

"The mission only gives us ten days, boss, it's been seven days now, and we don't have any clues, if it goes on like this, the mission will definitely fail."

Among them, Mo Yu's patience was the worst, and he couldn't help but ask when he saw that Ling Chen didn't care about him.

"Yes, if you have any good ideas, boss, tell us too, don't just let us worry."

Bai Qianxing is also a little anxious, even if the task is difficult, he can't sit back and wait for failure, then there is no hope at all.

"What can I do?"

Ling Chen withdrew the Tianfu Sword, and then looked at Mu Feng, "Let you keep an eye on General Yue Chaoqun's movements, what's the matter, is there any movement?" ”

"Not yet," a flash of surprise flashed in Mu Feng's eyes, "Could it be that they still want to attack General Yue?" Then do we want to tell the Heavenly Punishment Elder in the city and ask him to strengthen General Yue's guards. ”

The Heavenly Punishment Elder is the strongest master in Stone City, and his strength has reached the level of the Seventh Realm of the Great Grandmaster.

"No, if we are too heavily guarded, the other party will give up because it is too difficult, we must show a lack of vigilance, so that we can wait for the enemy's spies to strike first."

"The enemy is about to attack the city, and I estimate that their actions should be in the next two days."

"Listen, now I'm assigning tasks to each of you, and you're going to have to get it done for me within today."

Ling Chen's expression became solemn, if he guessed correctly, in the past two days, the enemy would definitely take action.

As for whether their task can be accomplished, it is up to them to do so.
