Chapter 57: The Assassin in Black

Many ministers were relieved when they heard Zhao Zhijun, and their hanging hearts could be regarded as a little lowered.

However, there were suddenly screams outside the restaurant, and the screams got closer and closer, and soon spread to the bottom of the restaurant.

The confidence on Zhao Zhijun's face disappeared in an instant, and before going to the banquet, he specially warned his subordinates not to make a move. He knew that his men would not act rashly.

If Zhao Jianyan dies here, he can't get out of it. He is the one who wants to clean up the dust for Zhao Jianyan, and he is the one who gives Zhao Jianyan a horse.

At present, Emperor Zhao Chen and his father have not started a war, and if the two sides really want to fight, they will never choose this time period.

King Fengyang is not ready, and if he wants to rebel, he must first fight against the descendants of Huo Wujia in the northwest, which will be a tough battle. After defeating Huo Wujia's army, we also have to consider the other armies of the imperial court.

Zhao Chen was not ready, even if he wanted to cut the domain, he would not choose this juncture. The imperial court was in an uproar because of the change, and when it started a war, it was necessary to unite all forces, including the infiltration forces of the Xuanmen for many years.

So going to war basically means that change fails.

Since ancient times, it has been external forces that have benefited from internal wars. It is conceivable that when the influence of Xuanmen in the imperial court is further strengthened, there is little hope for a large-scale change.

The relationship between Zhao Chen and Zhao Xuan is very delicate, and neither party wants to break this delicate relationship. Both sides are in a race against time to see who is ready first.

In case Zhao Jianyan dies, the delicate relationship is likely to no longer be delicate, which neither side wants to see.

Zhao Zhijun gave Zhao Jianyan a dismount, and at the same time did not dare to force Zhao Jianyan into a hurry.

Zhao Xuan, the king of Fengyang, controls Sanzhou, and the territory is still too small, so that many people have no confidence.

Zhao Zhijun is a general who leads the troops, and he knows the thoughts of the soldiers under him best. If we want to stabilize the hearts of the army and those big families, so that they don't defect, they can't be weak.

The screams were getting closer and closer, and Wu Zhangdeng was still standing there motionless. He paid close attention to the changes in the restaurant on the top floor, and as for the lives of others, he didn't care.

Among the ministers, there are civil ministers and military generals, and the military generals are fine, and they can always protect themselves by cultivating themselves. Wenchen is terrible, almost a lamb to the slaughter.

There was a minister who ran down to the restaurant, and just before he got to the staircase, a sword aura slashed, and the person turned into two, and blood spattered Lao Gao.

Zhao Zhijun said loudly: "Who did it?" Who is it! ”

A soldier crawled next to him with blood, coughing up blood and said, "Assassin, master......"

The soldier died before he finished speaking, leaving Zhao Zhijun standing there stunned.

Wu Zhangdeng took out the broken dust and stared at the surroundings calmly.

In a panic, Mu Fan said to Xiao Wan: "You and I run away separately." ”

Xiao Wan nodded, and the two ran towards the window. As soon as they arrived at the window, suddenly a large amount of blood splattered on their faces, and their bodies ......

Mu Fan turned his head to look at the side, and there was a person not far from him who was climbing the window. The man's body froze, and his waist was severed.

The two of them exited the lobby, not daring to approach the windows and stairs.

"It seems that this has become an urn, and we are all turtles in it." Mu Fan pulled Xiao Wan with one hand and put the other hand on his chest.

It's impossible to run out now, let alone run separately.

The hand that Mu Fan put on his chest touched the green snake robe, and either the family or the people of the Sword Sect came to help, or with the help of the power of the green dragon.

When he fled from the depths of the East China Sea half a year ago, the wisp of the remnant soul of the Great Black Sky inside the labyrinth wall had been assimilated. Now the frog can exert some of its power.

Qing Jiao didn't react for a long time, he raised his head and looked around, expecting someone from his family or the Sword Sect to make a move.

A black-clad masked man rushed upstairs, armed with a short sword.

Many ministers saw a cloud of black gas, and blood was dripping everywhere the black gas passed.

They were so scared that they almost peed their pants, and a few people really solved it in front of so many people.

Wu Zhangdeng finally made a move after seeing the man in black, because when the black man reached the top floor, he could threaten Zhao Jianyan.

He gripped the whisk that had been cut off by his waist and used it as a short stick, the severed end being hard and sharp.

The man in black turned into an afterimage and flew in front of Zhao Jianyan in an instant.

The sword in his hand stabbed forward, this stab was extremely simple, but it was so fast that his quick eyesight could not keep up.

Mu Fan only saw a white light shooting out of a black light shadow, and this white light was extremely dazzling.

When the light was gone, the man in black was gone.

Wu Zhanglan stood in front of Zhao, and the dust in his hand was shortened again.

Zhao Jianyan stood on the spot in a daze, the black light and shadow frightened him, it was the first time he was so close to death.

Although he could only see the afterimage and the sword light, he knew that he had just walked around in front of the ghost gate.

The Blackman's sword failed to kill him, so he successfully returned from the Ghost Gate. The person who pulled him back was Wu Zhangdeng.

Wu Zhangdeng touched the incision on the dust, and there was blood on the interface, and the blood was from the man in black.

At the moment just now, Wu Zhangdeng made three moves, and the man in black also made three moves.

With only three moves, the winner was divided.

Wu Zhangdeng was slightly better and injured the man in black. The man in black was at a disadvantage, and he was stabbed in the chest.

The man in black is very professional and should have been in the killer industry for many years. After he found that he was no match for Wu Zhangdeng, he did not fight and immediately fled.

After the hurried hand-to-hand, the true yuan was agitated, the sword aura was overflowing, and the full hall of civil and military ministers was nearly twenty percent less.

Zhao Zhijun was also frightened by the scene in front of him, but after all, he had fought and had been on the battlefield for many years.

Although the scene in front of him was very chaotic, the appearance of the killer was beyond his expectations. He reacted quickly.

Zhao Zhijun roared as hard as he could: "Someone's coming...... Come on! ”

At this point, his previous arrogance was gone, and he was embarrassed.

People climbed to the top floor one after another, most of these people were Zhao Jianyan's people, and only a few people were Zhao Zhijun's.

Wu Zhangdeng said: "Hurry up and treat the ministers, save as many as you can?" If you can't save it, find a way to collect all the corpses and let them go. ”

The soldiers immediately went into action, and the two percent of the ministers who died were miserable. The overflowing sword qi destroyed their bodies, those who cultivated strong were fine, and those who were weak in cultivation and those who had not cultivated could only rely on luck to see if the heavens favored them.

If they are lucky enough, they will be able to survive this "rain of swords". If you are unlucky, you can only die here, and you can't even recognize it if you are so miserable.

Those who are still alive are not doing well, and many of them have very serious injuries.

Mu Fan's condition is much better, and he also has injuries on his body, but they are not serious.

At the critical moment, the green snake caftan played a role.

After the sword qi flying wantonly in the sky came into contact with the green snake robe, it was like a stone sinking into the sea, as if these sword qi happened not to touch him.

If he hadn't been hurt at all, Mu Fan was sure that he would be suspected by those present. He made a decision to try to voluntarily give up the protection of the green snake robe.

Frog Surprisingly understood his intentions and blocked all the fatal injuries for him, so he was covered with injuries in some inconsequential parts.

At that time, he reflexively hugged Xiao Wan and used his back to resist these sword qi. Xiao Wan also had injuries on her body, but they were not serious either.

Qingjiao seems to be reluctant to take the initiative, and is only willing to help him secretly.
