Chapter 2: The Mysterious Killer

In the upper study, Dongfang Mi looked at Dongfang Jing with a subtle look in his eyes, this invincible emperor was also serious when he talked about the Chaos Clan, and it was obvious that he was also afraid of the Chaos Clan. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Father, what do you want to tell me?" Dongfang Mi asked softly, poured a cup of tea for Dongfang Jing, and then looked at Dongfang Jing calmly.

"The Chaos Clan is very powerful, we are all accumulating, there are still hundreds of years of time, you have time to grow up, so you are not going to explore the secrets of the Chaos Clan at this stage, but to practice hard. Dongfang Jing said to Dongfang.

Dongfang Mi nodded, she also knew that this was the case, the Chaos Clan was still far away from her, and the top priority was to cultivate hard.

"You also know a lot about the Chaos Clan, and I don't want to tell you now that it's even more profound, when you become a saint, I'm talking to you. Dongfang Jing thought about it and said to Dongfang.

Dongfang looked for his head, no longer asked, and was very sensible.

Dongfang Jing touched Dongfang Mi's head and showed a smile: "None of your brothers and sisters have become successful, you are my hope, and you are expected to reach my height, sixty-nine years later, you are a master of saints, and the throne is yours." Dongfang Jing looked doted and made a promise.

Dongfang Mi was not surprised at all, she now has the upper hand in the battle for the throne, but with Dongfang Jing's promise, Dongfang Mi is still happy in her heart.

"Father, the first empress on the Endless Continent, it's me. Dongfang Mi said firmly.

"I know you're better than your father, Your Highness. Dongfang Jing said with a smile.

Dongfang Mi's face showed a hint of crimson, she was ashamed, but she was very useful in her heart, wasn't this call her goal to work towards?

"Father, then how do you say I should improve my strength?" Dongfang Mi thought for a while and asked.

"Go to Jiaozhou, a lot of strange things have happened over there recently, I suspect that it was caused by a few people left over from the Chaos Clan, you go over there as an inspector, go to investigate on my behalf, and sharpen yourself by the way." Dongfang Jing said.

Dongfang Mi recalled the location of Jiaozhou in his mind.

Jiaozhou is located in the south of Yangzhou, is a relatively remote location, close to Yizhou, there are many mountains, it can be said to be surrounded by mountains.

The people there are fierce, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and the people in the entire Jiaozhou are less than one-tenth of Yangzhou, but the overall combat effectiveness is extremely strong.

In this place of Jiaozhou, many ethnic minorities, living in the mountains and forests, have their own beliefs, they are different from the mainstream people of the Dayong Dynasty, they have no culture, and they are not very accepting of foreign civilizations, and they often entangle hundreds of thousands of people to start attacking the local county, of course, the final result is to be suppressed.

Dongfang Mi thought of this, and immediately asked Dongfang Jing: "What's wrong with Jiaozhou?"

Dongfang Jing groaned: "The government of Jiaozhou sent a secret letter, saying that hundreds of monsters have been born in Jiaozhou in the past few months, which are very similar to the hell monsters recorded in the books, and many people have been infected after being bitten and have become monsters. As the development is now more serious, some pregnant women don't know what's wrong, and the children they give birth to have become half-human and half-demon monsters, and the local officials in Jiaozhou have blocked the news, and fixed these people in one area, and came to ask for a rescue solution, I think you can solve this problem. ”

Dongfang Mi immediately said solemnly: "I will definitely complete the task." ”

Dongfang Jing smiled and said, "I believe you, this time you go to perform the task alone, it is very risky, but you should be able to deal with it, I will not give you the slightest help." ”

Dongfang Mi said firmly: "I will definitely be able to deal with this matter, and my father will watch it with peace of mind." ”

Dongfang Jing nodded: "You leave first, take the holy decree and token, and set off in a few days, staying in this Great Yonghuang City will not help your cultivation in any way." ”

Dongfang Mi nodded, picked up the holy decree and the jade plate and put it into the magic weapon space, and then immediately retreated.

Outside the study, looking at the closed door, Dongfang Mi was tall and walked out slowly.

The huge upper study room was preceded by hundreds of steps, slowly descending, extending every dozen floors, looking magnificent.

At this moment, the sky is already dark, the moonlight is just right tonight, the stars are dotted, beautiful and flawless, the starlight is like a xia clothes, draped on Dongfang Mi's body, dragging out a skirt more than ten meters long.

Dongfang Mi silently thought about something, about Jiaozhou, about monsters, about his own cultivation.

She had already listened to Dongfang Jing's words, and instead of thinking about the Chaos Clan, she was thinking about how to improve her cultivation.

Dongfang Mi didn't go back to the previous banquet, but left the palace directly from the upper study.

Under the moonlight, Dongfang looked for a person to walk, and soon left the palace.

But as soon as he left the palace, Dongfang Mi's eyebrows jumped suddenly, and he felt the blazing murderous machine, surging over, and it was by his side.

There are assassins!

Dongfang Mi reacted instantly, and the assassin was stuck in the shadows, motionless, and his strength was very high, and the concealment technique was superb, Dongfang Mi didn't react at all, and he was assassinated.

A short sword with a jet-black luster stabbed over, the speed was so fast that Dongfang couldn't avoid it, and his body couldn't even react to turn around, so he could imagine a lot of pieces.

Eight Floating Pagodas!

Dongfang Mi's mind moved, and the eight Futu Pagodas immediately appeared, and the nine-story pagoda immediately enveloped Dongfang Mi, and then the jet-black long sword stabbed in.

Sonorous!

A crisp sound, echoing all around, was incomparably louder in the dark night, and was heard by the Praetorian Guards guarding the palace.

"Who!" they shouted, and rushed at once.

But at this moment, Dongfang Mi only felt as if he had been hit by a world, his body flew out uncontrollably, and hit the ground, and the Eight Futu Pagodas emitted a golden light, hitting the ground, shattering the bluestone floor tiles in an instant, and the earth was concave in a large piece.

Burst!

Dongfang Mi spurted out a large mouthful of blood, and the blood sprinkled on the Babu Futu Tower, only to feel that the five organs in the body were tumbling violently, squeezing, and the muscles and veins of the body were also cracked a lot.

This blow injured Dongfang Mi, and the man in black glanced at the Praetorian Guards who rushed over, looked at Dongfang Mi with a faint look, turned around and ran, and disappeared in an instant.

If you miss a blow, you will immediately retreat, this is the real assassin, after all, Dongfang Mi has eight Futu Towers to defend himself, and if he makes another move, it will only aggravate Dongfang Mi's injuries, but this makes Dongfang Mi not know who he is, and he can attack again.

This is a highly trained assassin whose strength has reached more than eighteen changes.

Dongfang Mi remembered those eyes, deep, emotionless, looking at Dongfang Mi as if looking at a dead person, such a look can only be found by killing countless people.

Pedal Pedal ~~

And at the moment when the man in black left, the Praetorian Guard came, about fifteen people, all of them were about fifteen changes, and the leader was the eighteen change masters.

"Leave five men to guard the princess, and the rest follow me. The leader of the Praetorian Guard immediately said solemnly and pursued closely.

The five people left behind looked at Dongfang Mi and asked softly, "Thirteenth princess, are you okay?"

Dongfang Mi stood up, put away the eight floating pagodas, wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, his face was a little ugly, and he waved his hand and said, "I'm not injured, you escort me out of here and go to my mansion." ”

The Praetorian Guards immediately escorted Dongfang Mi out of here, and Dongfang Mi didn't want to make a big deal out of it, which would be bad for anyone.

She was assassinated, and she just came back, when she feasted the ministers, it was definitely a disappointment to say it, and she was saying that Dongfang Mi didn't know who sent it, and it was unrealistic to investigate it in a big way, so it was better not to say anything and wait for the other party to come to the door for the second time.

The other party didn't kill Dongfang Mi the first time, there must be a second time, especially if Dongfang Mi chooses to keep quiet, the other party will definitely come.

Back at her Thirteenth Princess's Mansion in the Great Yong Imperial City, Dongfang Mi's injuries in her body were still not better, but her appearance had returned to her original state, and she waved her hand: "Thank you for the escort, and please go back and tell you the captain, this matter is handled in a low-key manner, and now the whole country is celebrating, don't spoil everyone's interest because of this little thing." ”

"The subordinates know. The soldier clenched his fists and agreed.

Dongfang watched them leave and entered the mansion.

I didn't come back for a long time, but everything is still the same here, and there are minions cleaning it, and it's unusually clean.

It was late at night, and the small house was not here, so she came to her boudoir alone, and then meditated cross-legged and began to recover from her injuries.

Buzz!

The mana in the body is mobilized, sweeping the wounds, and the recovery is also fast, because of the protection of the Eight Futu Towers, Dongfang Mi suffers all external injuries, and only needs time to recuperate.

"That assassin should be in the late stage of the eighteenth transformation or even the peak, concentrating the strength of his whole body on one point, bursting out with all his strength, and dealing several times the damage, this is the outbreak of the assassin.

And that assassin's concealment technique is really perfect, although Dongfang Mi is a little dazed, but he hasn't found it when he walks around, which is a bit terrifying.

"Who sent you?" thought Dongfang Mi as he healed, closing his eyes, but the emotionless eyes of the assassin appeared in front of him.

"Could it be the queen, or was it sent by the concubines?" Dongfang Mi guessed.

"Or are those big families who can't get used to me?"

"Or are you still from the Dragon Dynasty?" Dongfang Mi had no clue at all.

Of course, she herself was more inclined to be sent by the queen's group, after all, Dongfang Mi ruthlessly lost their face tonight.

"But, this is too fast, is it, so quickly find a good assassin to assassinate me?" Dongfang Mi thought distressedly.

"Who hates me so much?" Dongfang Mi shook his head, unable to think of it.

......

And after Dongfang Mi was assassinated, this news was also known by people with a heart, and it was basically impossible to hide it, but those who knew it would not spread it, so the general public didn't know about it.

After Dongfang Jing found out, he smashed his favorite tea set, and his eyes were cold: "Check it for me, find out who it is, and punish me with capital punishment." ”

This order went down, and the people were panicked.

In the harem, in the queen's bedroom, the eldest prince Dongfang Li and the eleventh princess Dongfang Wei came in together.

"Queen Mother, did you do it?" asked the eldest prince Dongfang Li a little anxiously.

The queen's face was ugly, and she scolded: "You can't be a fool when you are the queen mother, and you just had a conflict with that little goblin, and you sent someone to assassinate her, didn't you tell the world that I did it?"

She also felt panicked in her heart, especially since she had just received news from some secret little eunuchs that His Majesty would strictly investigate who it was, and if it was found, it would be punished with capital punishment.

The queen won't think it's a joke, with Dongfang Jing's doting on Dongfang Mi, it must be true.

And now, her suspicion is the greatest, how to keep her from being shocked and angry?

So at this moment, the eldest prince came to question, and the queen was immediately angry.

Dongfang Li, who has always been calm, is also a little anxious at the moment, after all, they are the most suspicious, in case they are framed and blamed, and they will be unlucky if they can't wash it away.

Not only is the queen's position not guaranteed, but he will also be implicated.

The eleventh princess Dongfang Wei sneered at this moment: "In my opinion, I'm afraid this was designed by Dongfang Mi himself, just to frame the blame for the queen mother." ”

The eleventh princess is recognized as the most gentlemanly, the lowest cultivation, and the worst brain among Dongfang Jing's children, her words disappointed the queen very much, and she snorted coldly: "If you don't know, don't talk, design it yourself, and plant it for us, the little goblin has occupied such a good situation, and can you still use it?"

The queen has completely died of her daughter, and her only hope is on the eldest prince, she has decided to help the eleventh princess find a weak in-law to marry, so as to save her annoyance.

"Okay sister, if you don't have anything to say, shut up and sit in peace. Dongfang Li also reprimanded, and then said to the queen: "Queen Mother, it's not up to you to do it now, and you have to stay calm, we respond to all changes with the same, and govern all things with immobility, and I'm just outside to ask who did it, it's just hateful." ”

Dongfang Wei looked at the queen mother and brother reprimanding him, his face was unswerving, he turned his head and ignored them, and complained in his heart: "It's all to blame on the damn thirteen, little goblin, why weren't you stabbed to death?"

"No, I also want to help the queen mother, I will go to see Thirteen tomorrow, and tell her that this is not what the queen mother did, if she dares to give me yang and yin disobedience, I will use the identity of the imperial sister to teach her a lesson. Dongfang Wei's eyes flashed with simple thoughts, and he immediately decided to do so.

If Dongfang Mi knew her thoughts, she must have felt strange, she was only ten changes, and she had no hope of reaching eighteen changes in this life, and she didn't know the horror of Dongfang Mi now, so she dared to teach Dongfang Mi a lesson?

is worthy of being the first fool in the royal family, and it is simply worthy of its name.

......

And at this moment, in a dark room, a black shadow is reporting: "It's failed, and now basically everyone who should know knows it." ”

The black shadow was reporting to a silver mirror, and strangely enough, he was facing the mirror, but it was not him who was shining in the mirror, but a strange face.

"Well done, no matter whether Dongfang is dead or not, this time the royal family must be suspicious of each other, we don't have to pay attention, you go out of the city tomorrow and come to Jiaozhou, we will meet in Jiaozhou, the plan is about to start, we can't be one step behind others." The man in the mirror spoke, with a strong sense of confidence. (To be continued.) )
