Chapter 278: The Zhou Family's Revenge
Zhou Wusheng didn't understand why Mu Yang said this, his consciousness began to become blurred, his body gradually became cold, and in a trance, he remembered the people that the Zhou family had killed over the years, and the hatred they had made, and suddenly had some enlightenment.
"The Zhou family will not let you go. ”
After saying this, Zhou Wusheng slowly fell down, blood gushed out along the wound on his neck, and the clothes on his chest also cracked a half-meter-long crack, revealing a deep knife wound below.
......
......
Back in the bungalow, the little maid had woken up.
Her face was still a little pale, and when she saw Muyang's eyes full of awe and horror, she knelt on the ground and kowtowed to him after knowing that he had saved herself, and her tears fell straight down, looking so pitiful.
It wasn't until the little maid was stable that Muyang asked about her origin.
After some conversation, Mu Yang learned that the little maid's name was Xiaocao, who had just turned thirteen years old this year, and because her parents died early and her family was poor, she was sold to the temple as a maid by her uncle.
Xiaocao is now a maid of a disciple of the inner hall, every disciple who enters the temple will have someone to serve the living, Muyang is no exception, according to the difference in strength and identity, the number of subordinates is also very different, the outer hall disciple can only have one maid, and the inner hall disciple can be increased to two to five, of course, if you have enough money, you can also enjoy better treatment.
After sending Xiaocao away, Muyang returned to his residence and locked himself in the cultivation room.
Zhou Wusheng's appearance evoked a lot of memories for Muyang, reminded him of Jiang Dougao, and reminded him of many past events that happened on Dark Star Island.
Dark Star Island was broken, dozens of guards on the island mutinied, and some extremely deep undercover agents surfaced almost at the same time, and the biggest black hand behind this was King Zhou.
Compared with the hatred of the demon clan, Mu Yang's hatred for King Zhou is several times stronger, if it weren't for the traitor he arranged to destroy the big array, how could all the villagers on the island die tragically, that bloody and cruel picture Mu Yang didn't dare to think about it, he had already sworn to make the Zhou family pay the price of the whole clan to pay for it.
Killing Zhou Wusheng was just the beginning.
......
......
The news of Zhou Wusheng's killing soon spread in the temple.
Ascend to the platform of life and death, life and death are determined by heaven, and the family master of the deceased must not cause trouble and retaliate, otherwise he will be the enemy of the temple.
This sentence is the rule of the challenge of life and death, most of the sects in the continent also have similar rules of competition, the stronger the sect and the higher the status, the stricter the rules, so, after tens of thousands of years of continuation, the duel between cultivators also has some default iron laws in the realm.
But the rules are set by the strong, and for some big families, even if they don't say anything on the surface, it's still easy to do something behind the scenes. What's more, it is a dignified prince.
The day after Zhou Wu's death, a letterhead recording the details of the battle was placed on King Zhou's desk.
"I'll go to Kaiyang, kill Muyang and avenge the seventh brother!"
Zhou Gang is twenty-three years old this year, tall and mighty, with leopard eyes and thick eyebrows, and a domineering body, which is very majestic when King Zhou was young. He was standing behind King Zhou at this time, looking at his father's tall and burly back, and said coldly.
"Wusheng is something I grew up watching, I entered the four realms at the age of eighteen, and the family's vertical and horizontal sword has also been practiced to the seventh level, among your brothers, in terms of talent, he is not worse than your eldest brother, but he was killed by a sword, which is a heavy loss for our Zhou family. ”
Zhou Gang didn't speak, and a cold cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Kill him, and you won't have to go. ”
"Why? Are you afraid that I won't be able to kill that Muyang?"
King Zhou turned around, stared at his son, and said in a deep voice: "You are the Zhou family, Muyang is a disciple of the temple, if you go to kill someone, you are suing the Zhou family of the temple for revenge for Wusheng, this burden, we don't need to pick it, write a letter to inform Lao Zhu, and transport the body back." I have my own arrangements for the killing. ”
......
......
Shrine, Martyr's Hall, underground secret room.
Mu Yang waved the dagger in his hand, rotating around the humanoid puppet in front of him, with a rapid and tight 'aggressive' sound, the smooth surface of the puppet soon had a layer of dense cracks, twilight, Mu Yang made a sharp turn, his body flashed from behind the puppet to its front, and the dagger drew a brilliant silver light and inserted it into the puppet's chest.
There was a soft click, and the puppet's head fell to the ground, revealing a neat cut in its neck.
In the dim corner on the side, the demon slowly walked out like a ghost, he came to the puppet, reached out and touched the incision on his neck, and after a long time spit out two words: "Not bad." ”
A flash of joy flashed on Mu Yang's face, the most two words he heard after training every day these days were: come again.
"Can you learn the real art of assassination? You promised me that if you stab me four hundred times in ten breaths, you will teach me the real secret art of killing. ”
The Demon Shadow reached out and pulled out the dagger inserted in the puppet's chest, and did not answer Mu Yang's question, but suddenly asked, "You killed a freshman named Zhou Wusheng?"
Mu Yang was slightly stunned, then nodded and said, "On the platform of life and death, I didn't use any of the killing techniques you taught, I used the Sky Split." ”
"Zhou Wusheng is the nephew of King Zhou, and he is also a valued disciple of the Zhou family, for the sake of a little maid, you killed him, didn't you think about the trouble you might encounter?"
Mu Yang's eyes flickered, smiled, and said, "That's a fair challenge of life and death, what trouble can there be? Could it be that the Zhou family still wants to take revenge on me? That means being an enemy of the temple." Do they have the guts?"
"Don't you dare, what if you do it secretly?"
Mu Yang snorted coldly, and said indifferently: "If you want to talk about assassination, who can compare with the killer of Xinghe, I haven't studied in vain in the past few months, how can it be so easy to kill me?" suddenly showed a flattering smile on his face, "What's more, you all know about this matter, teacher, if I have any accident, it will be the hand of the Zhou family, and you will avenge me." ”
The Demon Shadow looked up at Mu Yang, her dark green eyes flickering.
"The Zhou family has already asked someone to attack you. ”
"Huh?"
Mu Yang's eyes widened in surprise, and before he could speak, the demon shadow continued: "That person is the killer of the galaxy. ”
"Same door?"
Mu Yang's eyes widened.
"And he's already taken on the task. The Shadow said again.
"Kill your own people?"
Mu Yang couldn't believe his ears, he had been in the galaxy for so long, and he had never heard of someone asking a killer to kill a killer.
"He's a fifth-level hunter, and he's a disciple of Ghost Li. ”
The Demon Shadow's words made Mu Yang completely stunned, and during this time, he had already learned many secrets about the galaxy, including the ranking of the four major instructors.
Ghost Li, Night Ghost, Shura, and Demon Shadow are the four major instructors of the galaxy, and Ghost Li is ranked first.
"If a ghostly person wants to kill the hunter 'Dark Star', Xinghe will naturally not pick it up, but the person the employer wants to kill is called 'Muyang', so it has nothing to do with Xinghe. ”
Mu Yang opened his mouth wide, and suddenly felt very aggrieved in his heart, and just as he was about to speak, the voice of the demon shadow came again.
"So, from tonight onwards, I'm going to teach you the real assassination technique, and don't leave the temple even half a step until you've learned it. ”
