Chapter Seventy-Three: Anti-Assassination

Lin Xuan felt that he couldn't sit still, and he had to take the initiative. This Gobi Desert was originally his territory, and the assassins of the Beast Control Empire must not be allowed to stir up trouble here.

In order to find out where the assassins were hiding, Lin Xu sent a large number of soldiers out to search. From the injuries on the slain soldier's body, he knew that the assassin's martial arts cultivation was not low, at least above the sword qi realm. So he organized the soldiers who went out to search for the whereabouts of the Assassins into groups of ten. This way, even if they did encounter the Assassins, the combined strength of the ten soldiers would be able to resist them.

At the same time, Lin Xuan also sent additional scouts to Shayang City of the Beast Control Empire to see if he could find out the assassins sent by Jiang Xingming. As long as he could figure out the name or physical characteristics of the Assassin, then the Assassin must not be ambushed on the Gobi Desert, and he will definitely be found.

In less than a day, the soldiers of the kamikaze battalion searched almost the entire Gobi Desert, even the nearby mountains and rivers, but found no Assassin. This made Lin Xu feel a little disappointed.

Fortunately, the scouts who went deep into the Beast Control Empire were very capable, and they had already heard that the assassins sent by Jiang Xingming this time were two people, named Ye Tianju and Wu Wenhui respectively, both of whom were high-level swordsmen with sword spiritual cultivation. This cultivation realm shows that Lin Xu's original judgment was completely correct. He was also more confident in dealing with the assassinations of the Assassins.

Lin Xuan is in the Sword Soul realm, one level higher than the assassin cultivation, there is no reason to be afraid of them. Swordsmen fight each other, and there are also strong and weak points in the same rank, not to mention the contest between different levels. It will be a judgment from above.

Lin Xu immediately dispersed the Assassins, and asked the soldiers and civilians on the Gobi Desert to help find the whereabouts of the Assassins. Since Lin Xu led the soldiers to help the common people exterminate the bandits on the Gobi Desert, the reputation of the kamikaze camp has become better and has been supported by many ordinary people.

Since the assassin who came to assassinate Lin Xu was sent by the Beast Control Empire, he was not only Lin Xu's enemy, but also the enemy of all the ordinary people of the Shenghua Empire. They will certainly help the kamikaze battalion in their search for the whereabouts of the Assassins.

However, Rao is Lin Xuan launched such a huge search army, and still did not find the two assassins, Ye Tianju and Wu Wenhui, they seemed to have disappeared from the world.

Wang Lung couldn't help but tell Lin Xuan what he was thinking, and said guessingly: "Big brother, is it because the assassins have had to give up their original goal and flee back to the Beast Control Empire because they have assassinated the soldiers and exposed their whereabouts? If this is the case, then we will never be able to find them near the Gobi Desert." ”

"I don't think so. Lin Xuan shook his head slightly, indicating that he couldn't agree with Wang Long's opinion, and then analyzed: "The assassin was sent by Jiang Xingming, and his goal was to kill me, so that the Beast Control Empire and the Red Empire could once again send troops to attack the kamikaze camp. They will never go back until they have completed their mission. ”

In fact, Lin Xu's expectation was good, and the analysis was correct. Although Ye Tianju and Wu Wenhui had not made a move since they killed a soldier from the kamikaze battalion, they did not flee back to the Beast Control Empire, and were still secretly looking for an opportunity to attack Lin Xu.

Ye Tianju and Wu Wenhui saw that Lin Xu's people were so powerful in the dark that they didn't dare to make a move easily, even an ordinary soldier or ordinary people didn't dare to hurt him anymore, so as not to attract Lin Xu's attention and track down his whereabouts. It makes it seem as if they've disappeared.

What they did was originally an assassination, and they had to do it secretly before they could be sure of success. Otherwise, for assassins like them, it is all an adventure, and it is a great taboo for assassins.

Lin Xu thought carefully for a long time, and finally found the problem. He said to Wang Lung, "I think we are looking in the wrong direction now, so we can't find the assassin." The Gobi Desert is very desolate and sparsely populated, which is not conducive to hiding at all. After the Assassins killed our soldiers, they should have gone to Wanfu City to hide. They wanted to wait until the wind had passed and we had become slack, and then they would strike again. ”

"Oh, big brother, why didn't I think of it before? Wanjiao City is not far from here, but it is much more prosperous than here. For the two Assassins, Wanfu City was the place they felt safe, not the Gobi Desert. Otherwise, if they were still on the Gobi Desert, we would have found them a long time ago. After listening to Lin Xu's analysis, Wang Lung finally realized that what Lin Xu said was extremely correct and reasonable.

Now that Lin Xuan has found the problem and thought of this critical node, then it depends on how he arranges it, and Wang Lung just needs to implement it.

Although Wanjiao City is an important border city of the Shenghua Empire, the defenders there are very weak, and they are not as strong as the current battle of the kamikaze battalion led by Lin Xu. Therefore, it is impossible for Lin Xuan to rely on the defenders of Wanjiao City. He had to make effective arrangements himself in order to find the whereabouts of the Assassins.

Besides, now that it is known that the two assassins are sword spirit cultivators, not to mention those guards in the city, even in the kamikaze camp except for Lin Xu, no one has such a strong martial arts cultivation, and they are not the opponents of the assassins at all.

At the moment, the safest way to minimize the casualties of the soldiers was for Lin Xu to personally go out to deal with the two assassins, so that they would die without returning. And the premise of Lin Xu's attack is, of course, to find the specific whereabouts of the assassin first, so that he can have a target and kill with one blow.

Lin Xuan selected more than a hundred witty, intelligent and powerful soldiers from the kamikaze camp, and asked them all to change into civilian clothes, disguised as ordinary people in Wanjiao City, but in fact, they infiltrated Wanqi City to find the whereabouts of the assassins.

These more than 100 disguised soldiers need to be led by someone in order to achieve unity of action, concealment and safety. This person has to be Wang Lung and Leopard Print.

Wang Lung then asked Lin Xu, "Big brother, do you think I will lead the team to search for assassins in Wanjiao City, or will the Leopard Brother lead the team?"

"You've always been a little more careful than Leopard, and this matter requires extra care to find out the whereabouts of the assassins, so it's up to you to lead the team, Leopard is staying in the kamikaze camp. After Lin Xuan thought about it carefully, he replied to Wang Longdao.

"Yes, big brother, I will live up to your trust and find those two assassins. Wang Lung said to Lin Xuan with confidence.

"Remember, if you and your soldiers do find the Assassins, you can't rush to do it, you must report to me first, and I will deal with them myself. I don't want to see any more soldiers killed by the Assassins. Lin Xu told Wang Long with a serious face.

Because Ye Tianlong and Wu Wenhui's martial arts cultivation is very high, even Wang Long is not an opponent, let alone those ordinary soldiers. If they were to do it, even if Wang Lung and his soldiers could win the final victory and get rid of the Assassins by virtue of their numerical superiority, they would definitely pay a great price in that case. Maybe it will take more than half of the casualties, and there will only be about fifty of the more than 100 soldiers left.

This is something that Lin Xuan absolutely does not allow to happen. He told Wang Lung so solemnly that Wang Lung knew the stakes, and he must do what he said, and strictly abide by and carry out his orders.

Wang Lung knew this very well, so he replied loudly: "Yes, big brother, I will keep in mind that I will not let everyone be killed or injured because of the assassins." ”

Seeing that Wang Lung was so serious, Lin Xuan relieved him to lead the soldiers to go to Wanjiao City to track down the whereabouts of the assassin according to his own methods.

Wang Lung lived up to Lin Xu's trust, and two days later, he finally found Ye Tianju and Wu Wenhui in an inn in Wanjiao City. But at the same time, he also kept in mind Lin Xu's instructions, knowing that Ye Tianju and Wu Wenhui's cultivation was not low, so he didn't dare to make a move easily, so as not to startle the snake. If you don't kill the assassin at that time, but the assassin escapes again, it will be really regrettable.

Wang Lung immediately sent two soldiers to report to Lin Xu. He himself stayed and quietly monitored Ye Tianju and Wu Wenhui in the inn, lest they run away.

Not only Wang Long, but also Ye Tianju and Wu Wenhui were also very cautious. They knew that this place was the territory of the Shenghua Empire, not the Beast Control Empire to which they belonged. Outsiders like them will reveal their identities if they don't pay attention. So when they eat, they never dare to be in the lobby of the inn, and can only go back to their rooms.

Wang Lung's actions were cautious and secretive, and Ye Tianju and Wu Wenhui didn't know that they had been targeted. They didn't know that the partition wall had ears, and while eating meat and drinking wine in the guest room, they were still proudly discussing and laughing at Lin Xu.

"Hehe, now Lin Xu must still be looking for the whereabouts of our brothers on the Gobi Desert. He never imagined that we would be in their border town long ago. After a while, they thought that we were gone, and then we would kill the horse pistol again, and go back to find an opportunity to kill Lin Xu, so as to return to the marshal. Ye Tianju said to Wu Wenhui.

"Yes, let Lin Xu's stupid guy find it. Look at the desolate place of the Gobi Desert, who will ambush there. He thought we were bandits, but he didn't know how good we were to eat and drink here, and he didn't know how happy we were. Wu Wenhui actually laughed at Lin Xuan behind his back.

Wang Lung, who was watching them in the next room, heard this, and couldn't help but be extremely angry, and he really wanted to rush out immediately to teach those two bastards a lesson. In his heart, Lin Xuan was righteous to his brothers and loved his soldiers, not only in the Shenghua Empire, but also in the entire Heavenly Sword Continent. Wang Lung naturally couldn't listen to others arranging Lin Xuan like this behind his back.

However, Wang Lung also knew that he was far from being the opponent of Ye Tianju and Wu Wenhui. If he rushed out to fight those two assassins now, he would be the one who lost in the end, and even his life would be lost.

Now no matter how angry Wang Lung is in his heart, he must hold back, at least until Lin Xuan comes, before he can officially kill Ye Tianju and Wu Wenhui.
