Bite......

Murong Ye's Moon Shadow Sword and the white-haired old man's knife slashed together, and the light blue sword qi extending from the Moon Shadow Sword and the red sword light extending from the sword body also collided unreservedly.

Rumble......

A loud roar rang out at the same time, and a powerful shockwave spread ferociously from the place where the swords collided.

Murong Ye and the white-haired old man took a few steps back at the same time, and rushed forward against the shockwave that easily knocked all the pedestrians away.

Dingdingding......

A series of weapons collided, and Murong Ye and the white-haired old man frantically attacked each other at a speed that was unattainable for ordinary people.

When Wang Teng heard the sound of quarrels and fights coming from the restaurant, he had quietly retreated to the middle of the team.

When Murong Ye pushed Hongye and the elegant woman over, Wang Teng jumped up from his horse almost at the same time to meet them, and his hands accurately slashed at the necks of Hongye and the elegant woman, knocking the two unconscious.

Subsequently, Wang Teng no longer paid attention to the red leaves and the elegant woman, and came to Murong Ye's side not far to wait for him, sweeping the array for Murong Ye.

At this time, dozens of people suddenly rushed out from all around and launched an attack on the White Tiger Guards on the periphery.

However, because the White Tiger Guard was strong and prepared, these people couldn't break through the White Tiger Guard's defense at all, and they couldn't get close to He Yu and Han Commander and others who were in the center of the team.

Bite......

After Murong Ye and the white-haired old man fought hard again, the two took a few steps back and stood opposite each other.

The white-haired old man glanced at Murong Ye, who had a steady breath, and sighed slowly, and then directly put the knife behind his back, looking like he was not ready to make a move.

"Although I got the news that you killed the boss of the Iron Wall Cottage is a difficult character, I didn't expect that your vigilance was so strong that the old man's meticulous serial assassination made no achievements. ”

Red leaves approached Murong Ye and used her beauty to confuse her in order to let Murong Ye relax her vigilance; the elegant woman ostensibly intended to assassinate, but in fact she was distracting Murong Ye and the others; these two were just paving the way for the assassination of the white-haired old man.

This is what the white-haired old man called a serial assassination.

Murong Ye also thought about this clearly, so even if the white-haired old man did not show the intention of fighting again, he still held the Moon Shadow Sword in his hand and vigilantly stared at the white-haired old man's every move.

Because, Murong Ye was not sure whether the assassination of the white-haired old man was a foreshadowing for the real assassination that might occur later. After all, Murong Ye didn't dare to conclude that the assassination of the white-haired old man was the last link in the serial assassination.

Seeing that Murong Ye was still so vigilant, the white-haired old man couldn't help but chuckle and waved his hand, and the dozens of people besieging the White Tiger Guard immediately receded like a tide.

"You don't have to doubt that there are other assassinations to follow, since the old man has not succeeded, we will abandon this mission. ”

Murong Ye looked around and asked lightly, "Your Excellency, as a professional killer, would you give up the mission so easily?"

The white-haired old man quietly looked at the retreating dozens of people, and laughed at himself helplessly.

"We arranged the main assassination method in Nancheng District, but I didn't expect you to find out one after another before it was launched. The old man could only temporarily arrange this serial assassination in Beicheng District, but it was still unsuccessful. Those people were hired helpers on the fly, and to be honest, we don't have enough people to organize the next assassination. ”

Murong Ye frowned slightly. "As a killer, you didn't retreat because of the failure of the mission, but explained to me this, what do you want?"

The white-haired old man pointed to the red leaves and the elegant woman who were tied up by the white tiger guard.

"These two are the old man's daughter and apprentice, I am already old, and I don't want to lose my only relatives because of the failure of the mission, so I want to be cheeky and beg the son to let the two of them go. ”

Murong Ye quickly went through the words and deeds of the white-haired old man in his mind, and felt that the words of the white-haired old man were more true.

"And what is the old gentleman ready to give?"

Murong Ye no longer uses "you" to refer to the white-haired old man, but changes to "old gentleman", which is the same as the white-haired old man's intention of calling Murong Ye "Childe", both of which are a way to express kindness to the other party.

Murong Ye weighed it and still felt that it would be a good thing for them if they could stop there. However, he naturally wouldn't hand over the two of them in vain.

After all, there is no such thing as a free lunch. If you want to get, you have to pay first.

The white-haired old man also understood this truth, and had already thought of a way to deal with it, so he spoke without hesitation.

"Childe wants to escort the target away, so naturally the sooner he leaves Baixiang City, the better. The old man could promise his son to wait until the evening to spread the news of the failed assassination. Moreover, the old man promised not to participate in the pursuit of Childe and others. In the end, the old man was willing to send a few sets of exercises as a thank you gift to his son. ”

After the white-haired old man finished speaking, he took out a small cloth bag directly from his arms, and after opening the cloth bag and showing the several exercise booklets inside, he directly threw the cloth bag at Murong Ye.

Wang Teng took a few steps forward and took the cloth bag, and after he opened it and looked at it briefly, he nodded to Murong Ye and took the cloth bag into his arms.

Like this kind of thing that can't be confirmed to be safe, Wang Teng naturally won't let Murong Ye come into direct contact. He wanted to guard against the possibility of the white-haired old man poisoning the cloth bag.

Murong Ye saw that the white-haired old man was so free and easy, and he didn't wait for him to nod and agree, so he directly sent out the exercises, so it was not good to embarrass the white-haired old man again. Besides, the white-haired old man was right, the sooner they left Baixiang City, the better.

After all, Murong Ye couldn't rule out the possibility that as soon as they entered the city, the killer would notify Xue Lian and the pursuing troops.

So, Murong Ye nodded lightly to the white-haired old man, and after letting the white tiger guard let go of the red leaves and the elegant woman, he directly got on the horse and galloped towards the south city gate with everyone.

The white-haired old man, the red leaves, and the elegant woman looked at the distant figures of Murong Ye and the others, and their moods were complicated for a while. They have been killers for so many years and have performed many tasks, and it is the first time that they have failed such a mission.

Momiji pouted and said unwillingly, "Daddy, are we really waiting for the evening to send out the news of the target's passing?"

The white-haired old man nodded, and said with a straight face: "Of course, martial artists put faith first!"

Hongye frowned his small eyebrows, and said worriedly: "Many of us here are directly loyal to the new king of the Xue Kingdom, I'm afraid of ......"

The white-haired old man chuckled, "A few years ago, because you were still young, I begged for a living under that man. Now that you're an adult, what if that person really can't tolerate us, I'll take you to the world?"

When the red leaves and the elegant woman heard this, their eyes lit up and they were full of yearning. They have been living in the Northland since they were children, and they have never left the Northland to see the outside world.

Momiji imagined going to every place in the Dongzhou Continent to adventure and taste the delicacies of various places, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but leave saliva.

The elegant woman stared at Murong Ye, who had become a small dot, and a trace of confusion appeared in her eyes.

"Master, that person just now didn't even break his skin under the full attack of me and my junior sister. But his figure is not like those reckless men who specialize in cultivating muscles and bones, is there really a magical technique on the Dongzhou Continent that can be invulnerable?"

The white-haired old man sighed, looked at the southern sky and muttered, "There should be, the northland, after all, it's still too small......"

The elegant woman also looked at the southern sky, her eyes getting brighter and brighter!

The young vendors in the crowd also looked at the southern sky, their eyes full of hope for the future.

The intersection and collision of life will have a great impact on their lives. No one knows what this collision represents.

......

Murong Ye and the others really did not encounter the assassination of the killer again, nor did they suffer from the criticism of the defenders and officials of Baixiang City, and left Baixiang City smoothly.

As he got farther and farther away from Baixiang City, He Yu seemed to have a heavy burden on his body, and his body and mind became much easier.

Baixiang City is located in the southernmost part of the Northland, a few days away from the Xue Kingdom, and is the southernmost point that the king of the Xue Kingdom can reach with his tentacles. It will be possible to leave the Northland quickly after passing through Baixiang City, which means that it will be difficult to encounter the pursuit of the king of Xue again.

Thinking of this, He Yu sincerely bowed to Murong Ye, and his gratitude was overflowing.

"Thank you, Brother Ye!"

Murong Ye replied lightly, "Brother He doesn't have to be polite! Although he has already left the enemy's blockade, it is better to be cautious." ”

He Yu nodded solemnly, admiring Murong Ye's vigilance even more.

Although he left the enemy's range of strength, Murong Ye still maintained a cautious style, except for the necessary items to replenish, he did not pass by the town if he could.

There were four sets of exercises in the cloth bag taken out by the white-haired old man, namely a set of Xuanpin Heart Technique, two sets of Xuanpin martial arts, and a set of incomplete ground martial arts, which gave Murong Ye a total of three achievement points.

The achievement points that Murong Ye had obtained several times ago were hundreds or even thousands of points, and suddenly he was a little unaccustomed to the single-digit achievement points.

Murong Ye asked the auxiliary system to include these four sets of exercises in the task of completion and optimization, and it has become his habit to complete and optimize the collected exercises.

More than ninety percent of the exercises Murong Ye had obtained before had been completed and optimized, and the task was basically nearing the end.

Thinking of this, Murong Ye was even more determined to escort He Yu to the Dawn Martial Arts Academy and return directly to the Eastern Empire.

Murong Ye's main purpose of returning to the Eastern Empire was threefold, the first was to bury Liu Lao and the fallen guards in the Murong family cemetery in Qingyang City, the second was to confirm Xu Yuntong's situation and get rid of the family behind Xu Yuntong, and the third was to use the Murong family's intelligence network to track down the traces of the double-ring knife Ye Chong who killed Liu Lao, and personally kill Ye Chong to avenge Liu Lao.

In fact, Murong Ye also wanted to take the Chen family, but he didn't know the current situation, so he didn't know if there was a chance to knock the Chen family. Therefore, dealing with the Chen family was not the main purpose of his return to the Eastern Empire.

Now, Murong Ye's return to the Eastern Empire has another major purpose. That is, to give all the new exercises that have been completed and optimized to Grandpa Murong Yun, so as to enrich the heritage of the Murong family.

Although the new exercises that have been completed and optimized do not have the legendary Heavenly Grade Exercises, they can still greatly improve the strength of the entire Murong family. Moreover, if you use the exercise method to exchange resources, you can also enhance the strength of the Murong family in one aspect.

What Murong Ye didn't know at this time was that the place where Xu Tong, who was alias Xu Yuntong, was already monitored by Murong Yun in all directions, and the double-ring Dao Ye Zhong had been arrested by Murong Yun and locked up in the prison of Murong Mansion.

The reason why Murong Yun didn't do anything to Xu Tong and Ye Chong was indeed what Xu Tong guessed, Murong Yun wanted to wait for Murong Ye to go back and do it himself.

Murong Ye's reputation in the Eastern Empire is getting higher and higher, although he is not as powerful as the powerful king who is both civil and military, but he is much stronger than other young generations.

Even, there are already many people in the Eastern Empire who regard Murong Ye as the leader of the younger generation of the major families.

If he could get rid of Xu Tong and Ye Chong with his own hands, it would have a positive effect on Murong Ye's prestige.
