Things took an unexpected turn, everything came too suddenly, and even between the lightning and flint, Zhou Bo, who was hiding in the canopy in the distance, didn't see what was happening in the field at all.

Yuan Ziqiu, who had fought fiercely with Ye Xiao'e for a long time and had the complete upper hand, suddenly died.

The death is unknown and inexplicable.

It stands to reason that Yuan Ziqiu is a real martial king, even in the case of a sudden sneak attack, he should not be defeated so quickly.

And it was fatal by a single blow.

The person who can do this, unless he has the power of cultivation above the honorable level, or he is Yuan Ziqiu's most trusted relatives and friends.

Or, there is one last possibility.

The other party is the number one assassin on the continent!

There are only three people who can afford this name, even if they count the 500-year history of the Dajin Dynasty.

Two of them are dead.

Just as the most well-known truth in the Assassin world, the most famous Assassin in history must also be the most defeated.

Because only at the moment when the mission fails and he dies, people will know his name, appearance, and strength, and will be recorded in history.

This was the case with the two most famous assassins in the history of the Dajin Dynasty.

But the reason why they are praised and remembered by history is, of course, because these two men have great righteousness and perfectly interpret the true spirit and qualities of the Assassins: courage, forbearance, loyalty, tenacity, and righteousness!

Of course, more importantly, in a way, the final assassination of these two men was successful.

At least succeeded in killing his target.

However, in today's Assassin world, there is one person who is fundamentally different from the above two, because this person is still alive.

About the deeds of this man. It has never been recorded in official paperwork, nor has it been officially recognized, and all stories are passed down by word of mouth, so that it is difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood.

Legend has it that Emperor Gaozong was actually killed by him, some people say. He once infiltrated the Crystal City alone to assassinate the Demon Emperor, and in the end, although he fell short, he was able to escape, and it was even rumored that this person also participated in the rebellion case sixteen years ago, but since Emperor Jin is still alive and well, then he naturally failed again.

Defeat is certainly not enough to be praised, but it is possible to survive defeat, especially for an Assassin. That's enough to be considered a legend!

However, it is a pity that to this day, people do not know what the name of this assassin is, what he looks like, and how advanced his realm is, the only thing they know is his code name.

Mr. Candle.

Ye Xiao'e didn't know if it was the legendary Mr. Candle who came to the rescue, but it was undeniable. Even if it's her, before the other party makes a move. I didn't even notice the existence of this person.

That in itself says a lot.

And more importantly, why would the other party save themselves?

At this time, Ye Xiao'e was in a very bad state, although the poison of natural selection had not yet invaded the heart vein, and because of the cold of the Ice Armor Horn Demon Dragon, the spread of the toxin was forced to slow down a lot, but if the antidote could not be found immediately. If the poison in her body is removed, I'm afraid she won't live long.

So she didn't have the heart to investigate the identity of the old man, but if Xia Sheng was present at this time, she would definitely not be puzzled by the other party's sudden appearance.

Because the old man who came to the rescue at the critical moment this time was none other than Huang Lao, who had disappeared since Xia Sheng encountered a group of disciples of the Seventy-Two Alliance!

It's a pity. Although Huang Lao is good at assassination, he also knows some first-aid methods, and is even a poison master like Lin Ru, but he doesn't know anything about the poison of natural selection in Ye Xiao'e, let alone detoxify Ye Xiao'e.

The only thing he could do was to send Ye Xiao'e, Xia Sheng and the others into Zhiyu Palace first, and the rest could only depend on their luck.

But things are not as simple as he envisioned.

In other words, even if Yuan Ziqiu was killed by him with one blow, it did not completely relieve everyone's crisis.

Because Lin Ru is still alive.

The unsuccessful death of her husband made Lin Ru's eyes immediately turn as scarlet as blood, but she didn't have time to grieve, nor did she have time to pay tribute, at this time there was only one thought left in her heart, that is, let everyone bury Yuan Ziqiu!

Unless she dies, she must not let go of Ye Xiao'e and Xia Sheng and the others!

If Xia Sheng and Ye Xiao'e were really allowed to escape today, wouldn't her husband have died in vain? Wouldn't all the efforts they had made before this be in vain?

Lin Ru couldn't let such a thing happen, so she chased after her as soon as possible, and once again took out a snow-white small porcelain bottle from the flower cloth baggage, and threw it hard in the direction that Ye Xiao'e fled!

Seeing this, Huang Lao's heart sank, because he didn't know what kind of poison was contained in the porcelain bottle.

The unknown is the most terrifying.

Out of fear of Lin Ru's poisonous methods, Huang Lao didn't even dare to break the porcelain bottle, let alone take it rashly, so he could only try his best to avoid the whereabouts of the porcelain bottle.

Huang Lao's move was indeed a little helpless.

As an excellent assassin, Huang Lao is naturally good at using poison, and because of this, he can see that Lin Ru's attainments in the poison path are very high, whether it is the previous choice of wakamar, or the timing of the release of the natural selection of gold powder, he has everyone's demeanor.

But that's not the scariest thing.

The most terrifying thing is that at the moment when Lin Ru used a soft sword to pierce the ice armor on Ye Xiao'e's body, and at the same time was eroded by the demon pattern released by the demon horn, Lin Ru cut off his right wrist, allowing Huang Lao to really see the black blood flowing out of her body!

The black blood did not flow from the severed limb, but from Lin Ru's wound, exuding some kind of strange aroma, which immediately reminded Huang Lao of a possibility.

In other words, it is one of the most taboo methods in the poisonous way.

Poison with your body.

If you put it more clearly, it is Lin Ru who has turned himself into a poison!

Her blood and saliva are poisonous, her flesh and bones are poisonous, and even every inch of her skin is poison!

Of course, the process of raising poison is very long, it may be several years, it may be decades, it may be deliberately done by the poisoner, or it may be a natural side effect after countless tests on oneself.

But no matter how it was formed, no matter how long it was formed, in short, Lin Ru's behavior immediately made Huang Lao a little jealous.

Why did Huang Lao not kill Lin Ru again after killing Yuan Ziqiu, but fled from the scene with Ye Xiao'e?

Because Huang Lao knew very well that once he killed Lin Ru, then the poison in the other party's body would immediately erupt, and at that time, he would also be buried with him!

But what he didn't expect was that this woman, who was suffering from the loss of her husband, really had the idea of dying together, and was ready to drag everyone to hell with her! )
