At present, there are eight masters of the Council who are staying in Shangjing City, including him, and six people have been mobilized to Zhongnanhai, Zhongnanhai already has many masters, Li Xiao is a member of the God Creation Project, one of the only fifth-level masters, Ye Xing believes that with these protections, No. 1 will not be in any danger.

However, there was a hint of gloom in his heart, what if it was an assassin sent by White Cloud City?

That night, walking on the path, there were several real power leaders in Huaxia around No. 1, discussing something while walking, surrounded by countless evolutionary guards, no one noticed it, and the shadow on the ground slowly lengthened.

On the grass, everyone's shadows overlapped together, behind No. 1, the chill suddenly rose, because it was facing away from the shadow, No. 1 didn't see anything, and the pupils of the old man who was talking to him opposite him contracted suddenly, "Be careful", No. 1 was shocked, a wisp of cold light swept across his neck, and the shadow actually materialized to launch an assassination, which seemed to be integrated into the space, a black dagger seeped out of the shadow and stabbed into No. 1's neck, at this time, the sound of breaking the air struck, and the shadow dagger was about to stab No. 1 when it was intercepted by a flying knife, and the dagger and the flying knife collided with a brilliant spark, The killing intent of the flying knife shocked the shadow, and the shadow of the "fifth-level master" was shocked, he knew who it was, Li Xiao, the number one master in Zhongnanhai.

The shadow thought about it and didn't want to flee immediately, and the next moment, a flying knife pierced the space and carried the terrifying star power into the ground where the shadow was, however, except for penetrating the ground, there was nothing to be found, and the shadow had disappeared.

In the distance, Li Xiao's eyes were calm, completely different from when he was a child to please Lei Yan, the whole person seemed to have entered an ethereal state, all the movements around him could not be concealed from him, the noise of people, the noise of people, the sound of footsteps on the ground, the sound of water fluctuations, etc., everything was sensed by the star power spread out by him, Li Xiao seemed to disappear at this moment, and several third-level evolutionaries not far from him rubbed their eyes, clearly seeing Li Xiao, but there seemed to be no one in front of him.

The whole process seems to be very slow, but in fact it is extremely fast, in less than three seconds, Li Xiao's eyes opened sharply, and the fingertip flying knife flashed away, and reappeared on the lake surface that was sometimes reflected in the moonlight, and the flying knife disappeared again, on the surface of the lake, a big fish was swimming, and the flying knife appeared directly into the shadow of the big fish, and the blood flowed down the shadow, staining the lake red, and all the evolutionaries around were staring at the lake, and the assassin actually blended into the shadow of the fish?

One blow hit, Li Xiao's fingertips appeared again The second flying knife appeared, just when everyone took him to attack, Li Xiao withdrew the flying knife, his face was extremely ugly, assassin, escaped, he couldn't feel the existence of the assassin, just level four, he was able to escape from his hands, such a strange assassination method was appalling.

No. 1 was bruised on the neck, but the injury was not serious, and he waved his hand to let everyone retreat, leaving only Li Xiao and the healer.

After a while, the neck scar disappeared.

Ye Xing has arrived, his face is pale, behind him, Wu Zijun and Ai Xin are all there, a total of six people, it is the six members of the Senate who protect No. 1, the assassination just now, they didn't play any role, the whole process was too fast, from the attack on No. 1 to Li Xiao's flying knife into the lake, the whole process was less than ten seconds, and they didn't react.

"I'm sorry Chairman, I was negligent" Ye Xing hurriedly admitted his mistake.

No. 1 waved his hand and said, "There are all kinds of abilities in this era, and no one expected the situation just now, so I don't blame you."

"The assassin's methods are strange, and he has already prepared a way back, and I haven't been able to keep him, but he was hit by a flying knife from me, and he only has half a life left, please ask Councilor Ye to inform the army to investigate the capital, it is possible to find it" Li Xiao said in a deep voice.

Ye Xing nodded and hurriedly responded, "Okay, I'll order it down immediately."

"No need" No. 1 waved his hand to make Ye Xing stop, and said tiredly, "Dare to assassinate me, it is impossible to have no forces behind me, and I can't find it."

"But".

"Forget it, eat a trench and grow wise, and the defense of Zhongnanhai will be strengthened in the future, not to mention that there is Li Xiao here, it's okay" No. 1 reluctantly smiled, the old man has been in a treacherous conspiracy and calculation for half his life, and death can't scare him.

At this time, Wu Zijun suddenly interjected, "Chairman, I have something to say."

Several people looked at Wu Zijun, among them Ye Xing's eyes were clear, he suspected that the assassin was sent by Bai Yuncheng, at this stage the world was in chaos, and only Baiyun City benefited, and Wu Zijun was the spokesperson of Baiyun City in the Senate, and he unconsciously looked at Wu Zijun with interrogative eyes.

"Councilor Wu has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it" Although No. 1's face was slightly pale, he still wanted to hear Wu Zijun's words.

Wu Zijun said in a deep voice, "I have studied the battle for Su Province, the Xinghua battlefield, the former Second Legion Commander of Baiyun City, Ye Mo, that is, the current Commander of the White Tiger Legion, suffered the same assassination, the methods are the same, there were two assassins on the battlefield at that time, Ye Mo Legion Commander was burned by strange flames and lost consciousness, while other Baiyun City masters were injured by shadow assassins, that assassin's methods are exactly the same as the one who attacked you just now."

"Before the battle for Suzhou Province, Pang Chao, the commander of the 10th Armored Division in Suzhou, was also assassinated by shadows, but fortunately, the regiment commander Zhan Ming died in place to save his life."

Everyone was silent, and Wu Zijun's words reminded them that every detail of the battle for Su Province had been studied by the Review House, and Wu Zijun was not lying.

Thinking about it, Ye Xing's gaze turned to Ai Xin, the assassination of Ye Mo on the Xinghua battlefield must be the meaning of Mingdu, Ai Xin, as one of the ten halls of Yama, may know something.

Ai Xin's face changed, "These killers were hired by Lord Situ, and they are only transactional, not under the command of Lord Situ."

"You mean at the beginning of the apocalypse, these killers existed?" Ye Xing asked in surprise.

Ai Xin thought for a moment and nodded, "Killers exist in any era, and the early days of the apocalypse are no exception."

"Do you know how to contact them?" Li Xiao asked.

Ai Xin shook his head, "This kind of thing has always been Li Hui's responsibility, I have no right to ask, after the battle for Su Province, we have lost contact, and Li Hui's whereabouts are unknown."

"Ahem, forget it, you guys go down first, the killer organization is tight, and it won't be so easy to find," Number One said.

Seeing that No. 1 was pale, everyone knew that he was going to have a good rest, so they all retreated.

After leaving Zhongnanhai, Ye Xing immediately contacted the army to investigate the capital, although he knew that there was little hope, but he was not reconciled, it was good to try, at least it could deter some people.

The next day, the assassination of No. 1 shocked Shangjing and even Huaxia.

In this era, No. 1 sitting in the capital is equivalent to a stable pattern in China, once No. 1 dies, Huaxia will immediately be in chaos, which is no less than a disaster that will come to the end of the world.

For some small forces, China is stable, and they have room for development, otherwise they would have been annexed long ago, so the No. 1 assassination, these small forces are the most angry, and some areas even organize marches, hoping to catch the murderer as soon as possible in the capital.

Jiang Feng was surprised that someone assassinated No. 1 at this time, and No. 1 died, which would not benefit anyone.

Zhao Qibai suddenly came out of breath, "City Lord, it's troublesome, No. 1 is assassinated, it is estimated that someone will put the basin on our heads."

Jiang Feng also thought of this, Baiyun City is in full swing, if at this time, who wants Huaxia to be in chaos the most, on the surface, it seems that it must be Baiyun City.

The development of the gaffe did not surprise Zhao Qibai, sure enough, all kinds of rumors spread, saying that Baiyun City sent a master to assassinate No. 1 and wanted to occupy Shangjing City, and it was also said that Jiang Feng wanted to be a dictator, in short, all kinds of rumors were flying all over the sky, all of which were unfavorable to Baiyun City, fortunately, because of Jiang Feng's insistence before, a wall was built to protect the Chinese people, Jiang Feng's status in the hearts of ordinary people was still very high, most people did not say anything bad about Jiang Feng, and the situation was gradually controlled.

At this time, one of Jiang Feng's decisions pushed the rumors that were unfavorable to Baiyun City to the highest peak, Baiyun City--Expanding the Army.

In the past two years or so, Baiyun City has experienced three integrations, several small army expansions and two regular army expansions, the small army expansion has little impact on the outside world, the largest increase is the ordinary army, and the number of evolutionaries is not much, but each time the regular army is expanded, the impact on the outside world is great.

For example, after the battle for Su Province, the former legion expanded into the Four Holy Beast Legions, the upper limit of the number of evolutionaries was increased, and the number of evolutionaries in each legion was not much less than that of the city-level forces, plus the assistance of general-level masters, any legion was enough to run rampant in various provinces, the simplest example, the White Tiger Legion guarded Xuzhou, and the wilderness gathering place never crossed the thunder pool, which shows the deterrent power of the Baiyun City Legion to the outside world.
