In a city in the south of Hanhai Country, the courtyard is barren and dusty.

This is the intelligence spy stronghold under the command of the eldest prince Tuoba Hao, which looks inconspicuous, but almost the entire southern intelligence will gather here, and then pass it to Tuoba Hao.

A middle-aged man sat in the courtyard, lit a lamp and wrote on the letterhead, silently chanting while writing: "The three princes of the south have raised more than 500,000 private soldiers, distributed in Xiangling, Tongzhou, Guanhu, and Pingxiang."

Suddenly, a gust of wind passed, and a gray shadow silently appeared behind the middle-aged man, waving his palm like a knife.

Burst!

Blood was splattered, the middle-aged man's head rolled to the ground, and his eyes widened, and he didn't know how he died until he died.

The gray shadow grabbed the letterhead, and with a slight force on his five fingers, the letterhead was instantly shattered, and then skillfully picked up the middle-aged man's head, leaving a dark red Mitsubishi thorn next to it, and quietly disappeared.

At the same time, similar things happened in many places in the south of the Hanhai Kingdom, many big people were assassinated, the killers were clever and elusive, and some people were assassinated again and again but never caught a single killer, the only thing known was that these killers came from the same killer organization: Assassination.

The reason why it is known to be a dark thorn is also because these assassins have a dark red Mitsubishi thorn next to them, hence the name Dark Thorn.

In just three months, the name of the assassin spread all over the southern part of the Hanhai Kingdom, and in three months, the assassin received 78 missions, all of which were successfully completed without exception.

From this moment on, the assassination organization rose rapidly with rapid capital, and its status continued to rise, successively destroying old killer organizations such as "Hidden Kill" and "Firefox", and successfully replacing them.

Half a year later, the Dark Thorn became a resounding signboard in the underground world, and became a super killer organization in Hanhai Country alongside "Countercurrent" and "Skyhawk".

Some people say that there are masters of cultivation in the Secret Thorn, some people say that the Secret Thorn is the secret master of the royal family of the kingdom, and some people say that it is the master of other countries who hid in the Hanhai Sea and became a fierce beast that hunted the big men of the Hanhai Sea.

But none of these statements have much basis, and the people who really know it are silent, including a few princes, some powerful officials, and so on

In the middle of the mountain range ten miles outside Xiangling City, Lin Xiao and Ying Xun were like lightning, quickly walking through it, and finally entered along a hidden cave, and soon saw a bright fire.

Unexpectedly, there was a cave in the cave, and there was a huge space inside, and many stone chambers were excavated, and each room was orderly and not chaotic at all.

Lin Xiao and Ying Xun were very familiar with this place, and soon came to a hall, where several black-clothed people were tall and didn't say a word, and their cold eyes would only change a little when they saw Lin Xiao and Ying Xun.

"General, instructor. Several men in black shouted respectfully.

"Well, everyone has worked hard during this time. Lin Xiao waved his hand to sit them down, and said, "How is the matter of the assassination going now?"

Several black-clothed men glanced at each other, and one of them walked out and said, "General Hui, the assassin has successfully occupied the southern underground organization, and his men are also rapidly spreading to the north and east, and it is estimated that it will be able to pounce on the entire Hanhai Kingdom in another year." ”

"Yes, I don't have to worry a lot if I leave the assassination to you. Lin Xiao smiled and said, "But there are rules for assassinating and killing, you should understand." ”

The man in black hurriedly solemnized and said, "My subordinates understand that the one hundred gold medal assassins are rarely assigned tasks now, and they will only accept them when they find it interesting, and the other silver medal assassins and bronze medal assassins have absorbed a lot, which is barely enough." ”

"Stand down. Lin Xiao waved his hand, waited until the few black-clothed people had all disappeared before looking at Ying Xun, and said, "The Dark Thorn has begun to take shape, and the Conquering Heaven Army can't keep fighting, the necessary rest and enlightenment are still necessary, and these will be left to you." ”

"I know that although those boys of the Heavenly Expeditionary Army are young, they have been trained in militarization after all, and they are very receptive, and they are meticulous in the execution of my orders, so there will be no problems. Shadow Xun had a rare smile on his face when he talked about the Heavenly Expeditionary Army.

Lin Xiao nodded, lowered his head and thought for a while, and said, "Time is still too tight, whether it is me or the Heavenly Expeditionary Army, it will take time to improve, but I can't wait." ”

Ying Xun's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he said, "You really want to destroy Lingxiao Palace and the Four Great Xuanmen?"

Lingxiao Palace and the Four Great Xuanmen have their own grievances Lin Xiao did not hide Yingxun, but he didn't let him participate, after all, it was his own business, and whether it was Lingxiao Palace or the Four Great Xuanmen, they were all masters, and he didn't want to involve Yingxun.

Lin Xiao laughed and said, "If I don't destroy the Lingxiao Palace and the Four Great Xuanmen, they will not let me go, and my master died at their hands, and this revenge cannot be avenged." ”

"Cultivators have a long lifespan, and with the qualifications and potential of you and the Heavenly Expeditionary Army, as long as you wait for another hundred years, it is difficult to guarantee that you will not have the strength to sweep the Lingxiao Palace and the Four Great Xuanmen, why not wait?"

"I can't wait. Lin Xiao sighed, he still wanted to return to Earth, he still wanted to see Leng Yue and his good boy, and he also wanted to look for Bibi, so many things could not be delayed until a hundred years later.

After being silent for a while, Lin Xiao said: "I should go out after the matter of Hanhai crossing this side is over, I have been staying here to improve the speed of cultivation, I can't cultivate according to the regular process, so the improvement is too slow, and I can only go sideways." ”

"The sword is on the sidelines?" Ying Xun was stunned for a moment, and reacted very quickly, and said hurriedly: "The way of cultivation is gradual, you should know that you are too risky like this." ”

"Say no more. Lin Xiao waved his hand, turned around and walked outside, "The Heavenly Expedition will be handed over to you when I leave." ”

Looking at Lin Xiao's disappearing back, Ying Xun nodded heavily and made a promise in his heart.

The turmoil of the dark thorn gradually subsided, and it came down from the tip of the wind and began to develop steadily, but the Hanhai Kingdom was in an eventful autumn, and even the heavens would not let this side of the region be calm, and as soon as the storm of the dark thorn subsided, another major incident happened.

The king of the Hanhai Kingdom, Tuoba Yuanshan, is dead!

This news spread throughout the entire Hanhai Kingdom in an instant, and suddenly, the strength of all parties was ready to move, from the southeast, northwest, and northwest controlled by the four princes, to the border areas where some feudal officials were stationed, and then to the principalities and counties around Hanhai

The moment he got the news, Tuoba Yu and the other three princes became excited, and instead of being sad for them, Lao Tzu was not sad, but their eyes lit up, and they all stared at the king's throne and salivated.

I have to say that this is an excellent opportunity for the four princes, because Tuoba Yuanshan died too suddenly, and he did not leave an edict (maybe there was, but no one knows). In other words, there is no designated heir to the throne of the kingdom, so it can only be ascended by ability, and a bloody killing and competition is inevitable.

If there is contention, there will be war, where there will be war, there will be defeat, and if there is defeat, there will be casualties, but who cares about the princes? Anyway, the old man has not designated an heir, and everyone has the qualifications to be kings.

The first to act was the eldest prince Tuoba Hao, who gathered 700,000 elites under the slogan of returning to China and mourning, all of which were powerful forces that he had cultivated over the years, for this moment.

Then there was the third prince Tuoba Lin, Tuoba Lin did not say that he would bring the troops back to the funeral, but the excuse was more direct - King Qin.

In Xiangling City, Tuoba Yu took the secret letter in his hand, pinched it into pieces, and snorted coldly: "The boss still has no brains, take 700,000 elites back to the funeral, and make everyone a fool?"

"And the third child, this bastard actually used the excuse of King Qin, now that the old man is dead, and the King of Hanhai is gone, the king who is still a fart is still diligent, and it is clear that he is going to the boss. Speaking of this, Tuoba Yu suddenly became happy, "Hehe, these two idiots will inevitably have a big fight, it's okay, let them fight first, and then I'll make a move in the end." ”

"The Fourth Prince. Lin Xiao sat beside Tuoba Yu and said with a smile: "What about the second prince?"

"Second" Tuoba Yu's face sank, frowned, and said: "There is no movement there, the silence is a little evil, it is said that he also seems to have set up a mourning hall in the palace to cry for his father, hum, who is he doing this to see? Usually when he is in front of us, he is the most eager for the old man to enter the ground." ”

Lin Xiao's heart moved, and he reminded: "Fourth prince, the second prince is not pretentious this time, he is really buying people's hearts. ”

Tuoba Yu was stunned for a moment, but after all, he was familiar with this set of Taoism, and quickly reacted, slapped his thigh, and shouted: "Yes, this second child is really hypocritical, and he wants to be a ** and set up a chaste archway, by the boss, the third child to fight, he himself quietly enveloped the hearts of the people, and when the time comes, a popular will, the yellow robe is added, then who can say half a sentence about him?"

Lin Xiao laughed when he heard this, and secretly said that the four princes even knew about the yellow robe, and it was estimated that he had also thought about playing with it.

After scolding for a while, Tuoba Yu calmed down, thought about it and looked at Lin Xiao, and said, "Mr. Lin, what do you think we should do now?"

"The fourth prince has no plan in his heart, why do you have to ask me. Lin Xiao smiled faintly and did not answer, judging from his understanding of Tuoba Yu for so long, Tuoba Yu is by no means as simple as it seems, and the thick black in his heart is probably still above the other three princes, how can there be no way to deal with it?

"Well, since the gentleman has said so, then I have no scruples. Tuoba Yu laughed and shouted outside, "Someone, give me an order." ”

Hearing Tuobayu's voice, a warrior immediately ran in and fell to his knees.

"Pass my order, transfer the 300,000 elites of Tongzhou, Guanhu, Pingxiang, and Yanjing to the east of the kingdom as soon as possible, and capture all the cities controlled by the king of Zhendong with lightning speed. The 400,000 elites of Liuzhou, Xuchang, Maojing, Chengguang, and Yunchuan set off overnight, taking advantage of the opportunity of the king of Zhenbei waving his army into the capital to occupy the strategic place in the north. ”

After saying it in one breath, Tuoba Yu stopped, thought for a while, and said: "In addition, give me a walk to spread rumors, saying that the king of Zhenxi, Tuoba barbarian communicates with foreign thieves, colludes with the surrounding principalities and counties, and wants to subvert my Hanhai Kingdom." ”

"Hehe, I see how long the second child can pretend, if he dares to wave his army into Beijing, it will really prove that he communicates with foreign thieves, I call him indistinguishable, no matter how many people's hearts are won't be able to withstand the charge of treason. Thinking of being excited, Tuoba Yu couldn't help but laugh.

The warrior's vest kneeling on the ground was chilled, and he looked at Tuoba Yu in horror and admiration, "This kind of yin trick is indeed invisible, and the fourth prince deserves to be the fourth prince." ”
