I don't know if Xiao Ling's warning has worked, since Xiaoqiu was taught a lesson by Xiao Ling that day, Xiao Ling has never heard of the theft of the Zhao Mansion again.

And with Qing'er's care, and Zhao Wan'er's help at the expense of many precious medicinal materials, Xiao Ling's body has almost recovered, at least she can move freely.

In fact, it stands to reason that Xiao Ling's injuries are very serious, if it weren't for his body, which was already the body of a Tianxuan powerhouse, and when Ling Xiao woke up before, he used special techniques to alleviate the injuries in his body, I am afraid that it will be difficult to completely cure it in less than two or three months for ordinary people.

On this day, Xiao Ling opened the door and felt the fresh air outside the house, and her mood was extremely comfortable.

Moving her slightly stiff body, Xiao Ling couldn't help but take a deep breath.

These words, Zhao Wan'er and Zhao Xu, two sisters and brothers, also came to visit Xiao Ling from time to time.

Zhao Xu, the little guy, is also grateful for Xiao Ling's desperate rescue, as these sons get along, he has long forgotten Xiao Ling's status as a domestic servant, and there will always be a trace of admiration and closeness to Xiao Ling between his words, just like a younger brother looking at his brother.

Although these people were lying on the bed, Xiao Ling still learned some news from Zhou Ziming and Zhao Wan'er's sisters and brothers.

It turned out that it was not only the Zhao family sisters and brothers who were attacked by the assassins, but even the Zhao Mansion was attacked by an unknown enemy.

Fortunately, the goal of those people was obviously to capture the Zhao family's sisters and brothers, plus Zhao Yanping had spent a lot of money over the years to invite many powerful guards to protect the Zhao Mansion, although those assassins were menacing, they were still repelled by the guards of the Zhao Mansion.

But for this reason, the Zhao family also lost more than half of the escort force.

And this is probably the reason why those assassins thought that the Zhao family was just a merchant family, so they didn't pay too much attention to it, so they didn't send more powerful assassins to attack the Zhao family, so that the Zhao family could be safe and sound.

Compared to the Zhao family, the other forces in the Sea City are not so good.

As far as Xiao Ling knew, after they were attacked, more than a dozen large and small families in Sea City also received news of attacks of varying degrees.

Two of the lesser families were completely wiped out in this assassination.

And the Ning family, which was the most powerful in the Sea City, was even more taken care of by these assassins.

Although Ning Zhongkun, the head of the Ning family, is himself an earth Xuanwu, it is said that at the moment when the Ning family was assassinated, there was also an earth Xuanwu who was hidden.

Although the Xuanwu of that place was inferior to Ning Zhongkun, it was enough to drag Ning Zhongkun back, thus allowing the other assassins to intervene.

The Ning family lost Ning Zhongkun's protection, and under the frantic attack of a group of assassins, more than half of the direct disciples were damaged.

Among them, Ning Zhongkun's younger brother, Ning Zhonghai, who had a relationship with Xiao Ling before, was even more swordsman, and he was still unconscious at the moment.

It can be said that after this assassination, the strength of the Ning family has been greatly damaged, and it will be difficult to recover in a short time.

This time, a large number of assassins assassinated more than a dozen families in the Sea City at the same time, which immediately aroused the vigilance of all the forces in the Sea City.

Zhao Yanping even united with the family that was attacked this time and issued a bounty order together to try to find these assassins.

And secretly, several major families led by the Ning family also used the strength of their respective families to track down the mastermind behind this assassination.

It can be said that during this period of time, there was an undercurrent surging in the Sea City, which made the residents of the Sea City panic, and no one even dared to go out at night.

Of course, it wasn't just Sea City, this incident had already alarmed the entire Celestial Dragon Empire.

As the controller of the Heavenly Dragon Empire, Duan Chentian, the Great Emperor of the Heavenly Dragon, was furious when he learned the news, and ordered someone to investigate the matter thoroughly.

Although Sea City is not as good as Yanjing, it is also an extremely important town in the Heavenly Dragon Empire.

Unexpectedly, someone would do such a blatant evil deed, Duan Chentian didn't know what the purpose of those assassins was, but if such a thing happened, if it wasn't dealt with properly, I was afraid that it would have a great impact.

Although Xiao Ling was a little surprised that this matter had made such a big fuss after learning about all this. But at the moment, his identity is just a subordinate, so naturally he won't pay attention to these things, and he has no ability to care about them.

Just when the undercurrent was surging in the Sea City, the headquarters of the Mingxuan Chamber of Commerce located in the Sea City was still in the dim secret room.

The shopkeeper Mu, who looked drooping and old, had a sad face at the moment, looked up at Xing Baiyi, who was sitting leisurely on the chair, and couldn't help but be slightly angry in his heart, and naturally said in a tone that was not so polite: "Deacon Xing, you still have such leisure to sit here and drink tea!"

Hearing this, the chubby Xing Baiyi squinted his eyes opened a slit slightly, and then said lightly: "This assassination operation has made a lot of noise outside, and the major families have strengthened their vigilance, it can be said that there is one sentry in five steps and one post in the entire Sea City, and I don't sit here to drink tea, is it possible that the shopkeeper wants me to go out and die?"

"This ......" Shopkeeper Mu listened to Xing Baiyi's words, and he was short of words for a while, his eyes stared for a long time, but he couldn't say a word.

As the shopkeeper of the Mingxuan Chamber of Commerce, Shopkeeper Mu naturally knew what was happening outside at the moment, but it was because of this that he was so anxious.

After all, the three months that the sect master gave him have now passed a month, and he was originally counting on the Zhao family to be wiped out, and he was ready to take over the Zhao family's property in its entirety.

But he didn't expect that the assassins sent by the black-clothed messenger before were all wiped out, and as far as he could go, the Zhao family was attacked by the assassins, although more than half of the casualties were killed, but most of them were guards invited by Zhao Yanping from outside, and the real Zhao family was not injured at all.

And what made Shopkeeper Mu the most angry was that the man in black only told them to do something to the Zhao family before, but he didn't expect that in the end, the man in black would attack dozens of forces in the entire Sea City at the same time.

I don't know whether to scold the man in black for being ignorant or arrogant, and he is so stupid to want to swallow the entire sea city in one bite.

Now, because of this large-scale assassination, it has also caused the vigilance of the Zhao family and other families in the Sea City, so during this time, the Mingxuan Chamber of Commerce can only stand still, if it wants to make any big moves at this time, it is easy to be targeted by the public, which is very unwise.

Xing Baiyi saw Shopkeeper Mu's anxious demeanor, thought for a while, and then spoke: "Shopkeeper Mu, you don't have to worry first, this is all provoked by the guy in black, if we can't complete the sect master's orders, as long as we tell the truth, presumably the sect master understands the righteousness and will definitely not blame us." ”

When Shopkeeper Mu heard this, he also nodded helplessly.

And at this time, in the quiet secret room, a black wind struck, and before Xing Baiyi could react, a black shadow had already appeared in the sight of the two.

"Shopkeeper Mu, Deacon Xing, weren't you blaming me just now?" said the man in black in an indifferent tone as soon as he appeared.

Shopkeeper Mu and Xing Baiyi were both shocked, but fortunately, Xing Baiyi reacted immediately, and then laughed dryly twice, and said: "The envoy misunderstood, I am discussing what happened outside with Shopkeeper Mu, how dare I blame the envoy." ”

When the shopkeeper on the side heard this, he also hurriedly agreed.

The man in black just snorted coldly at this, and said no more.

Seeing that the man in black was silent, the shopkeeper Mu and Xing Baiyi over there glanced at each other, and then hesitated before saying: "Messenger, how do you think our next actions will be arranged? Now that the Zhao family has taken precautions, it is simply impossible to embezzle the Zhao family's property in the remaining two months." ”

When the man in black heard this, he couldn't help but interrupt the words of the shopkeeper Mu and said: "It was the envoy who underestimated the power of the Zhao family before, but I didn't expect that the Zhao family was so deeply hidden, and there was a master behind it to secretly protect it. ”

"Master, this Zhao family started as a businessman, and it has been investigated clearly before, except for the guards who were hired with a lot of money, where did any master come from?" Xing Baiyi said with a sneer.

The man in black also heard the meaning of Xing Baiyi's words, obviously saying that he deliberately made up such a clumsy reason in order to shirk responsibility.

In this regard, the tone of the man in black seemed to be so indifferent and low forever, only to hear him say coldly: "Originally, I planned to send a part of the forces to attack the major families, first, to probe the bottom of the major families, and then to take the opportunity to divert the attention of these families, so that your Mingxuan Chamber of Commerce can smoothly take over the Zhao family's industry." ”

After a pause, without waiting for Xing Baiyi to continue to speak, the man in black said again: "It's just that I didn't expect that there was a problem on the Zhao family's side, obviously the information you gave me was not accurate." ”

Xing Baiyi was in charge of the intelligence, and when he heard the words of the man in black at this moment, his face suddenly became extremely gloomy, and he said in a cold voice: "Messenger, you can't talk nonsense, as early as three months ago, my Void Spirit Sect had already investigated the Zhao family inside and out, but I never found the master you said. ”

The man in black didn't look back, and said in a cold voice: "That's the case, whether you believe it or not, I don't need to explain more than you." ”

When Xing Baiyi heard this, his face turned red for a while, and the man in black continued: "You don't have to worry about this matter, even if his Zhao family has a master to help, the envoy already has a comprehensive plan, and the Zhao family will never turn over this time." ”

"The envoy has a plan, can you reveal a thing or two?" asked the shopkeeper Mu, who was obviously very concerned about this matter.

However, the man in black said lightly: "You can wait with peace of mind, if it is fast, it will be a month, and if it is slow, you will see it in two months, and the shopkeeper Mu will wait to accept the Zhao family's industry in its entirety." ”

After speaking, the figure of the man in black flashed, and he was gone.

"Hmph, this guy has already failed once, and he dares to be so arrogant, if it weren't for the sect master's orders, how could I look at his face and act. Xing Baiyi saw the man in black leaving, and couldn't help but say angrily.

The shopkeeper on the side did not answer, but was silent, bowing his head and pondering.
