In fact, the Shadow Sword Master at this time was also full of grievances, in fact, strictly speaking, he was the biggest victim of this assassination. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info because according to his original intention, he didn't want to assassinate Catherine at all, not only because he was afraid of Catherine's princess status, but most importantly, he didn't want to provoke the crazy lightning saint.

You know, the Shadow Sword Master is not an idiot, although he has a deep hatred with the old mage, and secretly wants to bite the other party to death, but he clearly knows the strength gap between the two, before he is sure to defeat the old mage, what he wants to do most in his heart is to be a shrinking turtle, as long as the old mage does not trouble him, he is satisfied, how can he be willing to take the initiative to provoke the other party?

But thinking about it, the actual situation is not up to him, because he had made a fatal mistake before, that is, he was seduced by the queen and went to the emperor's bed. He cuckolded the emperor, but of course he was caught by the queen by the pigtail, so he had to become a knife in the queen's hand. And yesterday's assassination was carried out at the request of the Empress.

After the failure of the matter, the queen didn't have any, she was not worried that the Shadow Sword Saint would dare to betray herself, so this black cauldron could only be carried by the Shadow Sword Saint himself. So he told the emperor that he wanted to do this on his own initiative, in order to purify the royal bloodline. Of course, the emperor didn't believe this kind of naïve statement at all, so the third prince also had to take the initiative to stand up and take some responsibility. But that's the case, the Shadow Sword Saint also followed the emperor's ranks, not only was he reprimanded, but the emperor also transferred out of distrust of him, and most of his elite subordinates.

In other words, there are actually only five or six hundred reserve assassins in this castle who are still training, and they are all novices with low strength. And there are only less than 100 real masters above the fourth level, and the other more than three hundred elites were sent elsewhere by the emperor during the day today.

Therefore, in the face of the Stephen family's fierce offensive, the Shadow Sword Saint could only beg for mercy with a hard head, and had no intention of resisting at all. If his elite were all there, he wouldn't be so careful, even if he couldn't beat the other party, there would be no problem in breaking through with all his might! After all, the old evil had brought 500 people, and it was impossible to encircle and annihilate the same number of assassins. But now, even if the Shadow Sword Master is asked to defend with all his might, he may not be able to withstand the attack of the old evil's group of subordinates, not to mention that the other party still has something against the sky like a goblin mine.

Hearing the Shadow Sword Saint's wailing words, the old mage's heart flashed with a hint of relief inexplicably, after all, this guy in front of him was the enemy he hated for a hundred years! And he also enjoyed this atmosphere, so he simply reached out to stop the cyclops' attack, and then said with a smile, "What, the famous Shadow Sword Saint wants to ask for mercy?"

"En!" The Shadow Sword Saint was so angry by the old mage's words that his face turned green, but in order to keep his inheritance, he could only hold back his anger, and then said: "Okay, count me in the towel, you put forward conditions!"

"My conditions are very simple, you all have to die!" the old mage said coldly.

"Stephen, don't go too far!" the Shadow Sword Saint couldn't help but say angrily, "Don't you just care about the Emperor's feelings at all?"

"I said it, he is the first year of junior high school, and I am the fifteenth! Don't blame anyone! If you really want to blame, then blame you for being stupid!" The old mage then said lightly: "Besides, don't take me for a fool, I know you kid is delaying time, right?"

Although the Shadow Sword Saint's face changed slightly, he still quibbled, "What is the delay? I don't understand what you mean!"

"Hehe, then I'll tell you!" the old mage then sneered: "Ten miles away from here, there is a military camp with 10,000 garrisons in it, all of which are elite cavalry. They were specially set up by His Majesty the Emperor to protect this place. Isn't the reason why you and I are talking endlessly just to wait for them to come to your aid?"

"Haha, joke, they're ten miles away, they can't hear me even if I shout through my throat!"

"But you can send someone out of the secret passage to ask for help, right?" The old mage suddenly sneered, "But it's a pity, your tunnel has been sealed by me!"

"Huh?" After hearing this, the Shadow Sword Saint finally couldn't help but change color and said, "Okay, Stephen, do you really plan to kill me completely?"

"Hehe, the acting is good, but unfortunately, I have watched too much, so your acting skills still can't deceive me!" The old mage sneered again: "Your nonsense just now is still delaying time, well, it means that you still have expectations for reinforcements." Haha, I see, there shouldn't be a means of magical communication between you, right?"

"Hehe!" After hearing this, the Shadow Sword Saint immediately couldn't help but laugh and said, "Okay, it is worthy of the lightning magic saint with the title of old fox, Stephen, you really guessed right, how can there be no magic communication in a critical place like ours? If I were you, I would turn around and flee immediately, lest I be crushed into powder by the army!"

"It's a pity that you're not me, because you're not as stupid as you!" the old mage sneered: "Don't forget, I am involved in all the city defenses of Yanjing, and I know exactly where there are any troops stationed." I have long felt that the 10,000 cavalry was an eyesore, and there was obviously no need to be stationed, but the emperor wanted to be arranged there. And yesterday after I learned the location of your lair, everything is clear, hmph, so, you can die! I have made arrangements, they will never come to save you! We have time, we can play slowly!"

"Yes, yes!" The old evil also smiled immediately: "It doesn't matter if you play for a few days, anyway, it's very remote here, and there is often no one passing by for more than ten days!"

Actually, the old evil is a bit exaggerated. After all, the 10,000 elite cavalry was not a joke, and the old evil couldn't stop the other party for several days. In fact, he could only stop it for one night. The way to do this is to have the Krakens sing a song of the Kraken. Crischen took dozens of Stephen family masters to escort the Krakens to do this.

But the Shadow Sword Saint didn't know the truth and the truth, and when he heard the old mage point out the location of those reinforcements, he was so fearless. Immediately believed it to be true, and then became discouraged, he knew that today's things were only afraid that they would not be good.

"Stephen, is there really no room for negotiation?" said the Shadow Sword Saint with a sudden frown. Obviously, this was his last temptation.

The old mage stopped talking nonsense and said directly: "The only thing I can do for you is to give you a chance to fight fairly." But if you want to test my patience and keep delaying, then don't blame a bunch of us for besieging you!"

"Oh, the siege is good, save time and effort! And the reward will not be less!" Lan Fake immediately shouted: "I strongly demand that the siege be immediate, and go back to sleep as soon as possible!"

"Hmph!" Seeing this, the Shadow Sword Saint knew that there was no room for recovery, so he no longer made compromises, and sneered directly: "Siege? Am I afraid of you here?"

As he spoke, the Shadow Sword Saint waved his hand, and immediately three people walked out from behind the city wall. The two black-clothed assassins, judging from their size and momentum, were none other than the powerhouses of the Sanctuary who assassinated Catherine yesterday. The other was a woman in a black magic robe, with a mask on her face, and she looked down on her face.

But the old mage recognized it immediately, and he immediately said with a little surprise: "Weina, is that you?"

"It's me, teacher!" the magician said, bowed down to the old mage, and said, "I haven't seen you for many years, are you okay?"

"I'm so-so, but you're not going to be able to do it!" said the old mage with a little surprise, "It's already a holy realm, if I'm not mistaken, you're not even 50 years old this year, right?"

"Yes teacher!" Wella nodded and said, "The disciple is 48 years old this year!"

"Amazing!" said the old mage with a little excitement, "Although when I first taught you, I knew that your talent was very high and you should be able to reach the level of the Holy Domain, but I deduced at that time that even if you stepped into the Holy Domain, you would not be able to do it at least after you were a hundred years old. But I didn't expect you to succeed at the age of 48, it's incredible!"

"I'm sorry teacher, I disappointed you!" Wei Na said with some guilt, "I actually didn't rely on my own strength to step into the Holy Realm!"

"Oh, did you forcibly ascend by external force?" said the old mage with a little surprise after hearing this.

"Yes!" Wella said with a shy nod.

"It's a pity!" the old mage immediately shook his head and said, "Do you know? It is actually a very stupid thing to forcibly improve the realm with external forces, not only is it extremely dangerous, but it will also greatly damage your own body, making your lifespan shorten a lot. What's especially serious is that you will never be able to enter the Legendary Realm in the future!"

"The legend is so far away from me that I didn't even think about it!" Wella said with a wry smile.

"Well, that's what I'm saying, with your talent, the chance of becoming a legend is only 30%, but it's also worth fighting, it's much stronger than you are now. The old mage said with regret: "Silly boy, after being forcibly promoted, your strength is still a cut lower than the sacred domain you have improved, why can't you wait?"

"I can't help myself!" Wei Na said helplessly, "The organization needs a Sanctuary Mage!"

"I see!" the old mage suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said, "What about the dozen or so children who are with you?"

"All of them are dead!" said the Shadow Sword Saint with a little impatience, "Do you think it is so easy to improve the realm? It would be good if one of them could succeed, but this is also thanks to your good education! If it weren't for your hard work, I'm afraid that even this one wouldn't have succeeded." ”
