Looking at the vague and tall back walking in front of him, Gong Yu Sayan's heart that had been panicking still found a trace of comfort.

Because he knew that as long as his brother Gongyu was there, the master would not attack him.

Although his brother is still haunted by the incident when Han Bing injured his master, Gongyu Sa Yan believes that Sa Rong will not watch his brother die no matter what.

On that day, Gongyu Sayan sneaked up to Chiyang Mountain with cold ice, originally planning to borrow the hand of this young man to kill his master Duxiaoqiong in one fell swoop.

Who knew that when he saw that Han Bing was about to succeed, Gongyu Sarong learned from the mouth of a disciple of the Chiyang Sect that Lu Yuanfeng was being chased and killed by Zheng Yong.

Eager to save his master, he wanted to rush out immediately and use the news to lure Han Bing away.

But Gongyu Sayan definitely doesn't want to fail. So, he held his brother down and prevented him from getting out of the hospital bed.

As a result, Gongyu Sarong ordered the other Chiyang Sect disciples to forcibly drag his brother away. And he himself was helped out of the hospital bed by someone, supported and walked to the door, and finally succeeded in using Lu Yuanfeng's news to lure away Han Bing and save the seriously injured master.

For this reason, Gongyu Sayan was almost slaughtered by the Empress Dowager Yin who hated him to the core, but fortunately, His Majesty the Emperor came forward to intercede for him, so he was spared again.

The wound on Gongyu Sarong's back was also torn again due to the forced get-up, but he still held on to his weak body, kneeling in front of Duxiaoqiong's sickbed, begging the master to give his brother another chance.

In the end, Gongyu Sayan was able to save one of his lives, but it was temporary.

Because Empress Dowager Yin had already negotiated the conditions with Emperor Rong Yu Wengang, in the implementation of this "stabbing cold" plan, Gongyu Sayan and his secret guards must be completely at the disposal of the Chiyang Sect Leader Duxiaoqiong.

This also means that after entering Yuguo, Gongyu Sayan's life was completely held in the hands of Duxiaoqiong.

As expected, before tonight's assassination began, Duxiao Qiong could be said to have taken all of Gongyu Sayan's subordinates extremely brutally.

Gongyu Sayan naturally understood that the master was trying to make himself isolated and helpless, and he could only rely on the protection of his brother Gongyu Sarong. In this way, he has no ability to assassinate Leng Yiqing, let alone the courage to harm his only brother who can protect him, Gongyu Sarong.

In fact, Gongyu Sayan had no intention of risking Leng Yiqing, and he didn't have the slightest idea of hurting his brother.

Ever since that time Gongyu Sarong sacrificed his life from Gu Ning's Xuantie dagger to save him, Gongyu Sayan has clearly realized that the only person in this world who will never hurt him is this brother of his.

Therefore, he had already secretly made a decision, after coming to Yuguo, he would always follow his brother Gongyu Sarong, not only to protect each other, but also to help him complete the assassination operation.

As for the issue of competing for the position of the sect leader and transmitting internal force, Gong Yu Sayan had already thought about it very clearly.

As long as Sa Rong resolutely disagrees, the master can't force him to absorb the internal strength of his brother.

And once his brother ascends to the position of sect leader, he will spare no effort to help him gain a firm foothold in the court and seize greater power. When the time comes, the two brothers will join forces, and maybe even the world will eventually have the surname Gongyu.

It was precisely because of this determination in his heart that after Duxiao Qiong forcibly took away all his subordinates, although Gongyu Sayan felt frightened and angry, he still did not give up hope. As long as he knew that his brother was still around, he had the courage to move on.

And at this moment, walking in this cold and dark secret passage, he really needs this kind of courage to support himself step by step.

"Sass-"

He couldn't help but let out a low sigh, wanting to make further sure that his feelings were not wrong.

The tall figure in front of him slowed down when he heard the sound, turned his head, smiled at him, and said, "Big brother, don't worry, it's coming soon." When you get out, you'll be right behind me, and you'll be fine. ”

Gong Yu's heart immediately settled, and he smiled back, and quickly quickened his pace to keep up with his brother.

Sure enough, after a short walk, they reached the exit of this secret passage.

Zheng Yong's men, who were leading the way in front, stretched out his hand and pressed a mechanism somewhere, and with a soft "click", the baffle at the exit was automatically removed, revealing a hole for only one person to enter and exit.

Gongyu Sarong took the lead, and was the first to climb out along the bamboo ladder standing at the entrance of the cave.

Gong Yu Sayan originally planned to follow, but as soon as he changed his mind, he changed his mind again.

He waved his hand and let the ten Red Sun Sect disciples walk in front of him.

Then, he turned his head to look at Zheng Yong's subordinate, and asked with a smile, "Isn't Brother Ren going up?"

The man shook his head and said, "The Lord Steward has instructed me to lead you in the way, and then guard the exit, and then take you out from here when you have succeeded." ”

"So there is Brother Lao Ren!"

Gongyu nodded with a smile and began to climb the bamboo ladder.

Maybe it was a little slippery on the bamboo ladder, but he seemed to be careless, and he actually fell off the ladder!

Seeing this, the man next to him hurriedly stepped forward to help him.

But who knew that at this moment, the cold light flashed on the steep ground, and a snow-bright dagger had pierced into the man's lower abdomen!

The man immediately screamed, and then received another heavy slap on the chest.

With the sound of "click" and "click" cracking of his ribs, his whole person was immediately beaten and fell out.

Seeing that the man was lying on the ground and twitched a few times, there was no sound, and Gong Yu's mouth couldn't help but let out a sneer.

He didn't believe that Zheng Yong would have any good ideas!

Last time, this traitorous eunuch failed to assassinate him, the chief secretary, and naturally feared that one day he would find an opportunity to take revenge.

Therefore, this traitor will definitely take advantage of his isolation in Yuguo to find ways to put him to death.

This traitorous eunuch made people guard the secret passage in one fell swoop, and the purpose was probably to completely cut off his retreat and get rid of him by the hands of the Ouchi guards.

"Big brother—"

Outside the entrance of the cave, there was a sudden low call from the brother Gongyu Sarong.

Gong Yu Sayan hurriedly agreed, quickly raised one foot, wiped the bloody dagger in his hand on the sole of his boot twice, and then took it back into his arms.

Then, he climbed the bamboo ladder with both hands, preparing to go out immediately to meet Gongyu Sarong.

However, at this moment, his heart suddenly jumped, and he realized that he was beginning to be able to sense the ten secret guards under him again.

No! Not ten, but nine!

What's going on? Why is there one missing so quickly? Could it be that the master's way has been discovered by the palace guards, and the two sides have exchanged hands?

When Gongyu Sayan was frightened, he suddenly sensed that there was another secret guard missing!

It seems that the situation is not good, Master and they must have encountered a strong enemy.

"Big brother—"

Gong Yu Sarong's anxious low voice came from above again.

Gongyu Sa Yan hesitated for a moment, and finally gave up the idea of turning around and running away, deciding to stay with his brother.

If you're lucky, it's the best. Even if you miss a single hit, you should have a chance to escape through the secret passage again.

So, he quickly climbed the bamboo ladder and out of the cave, finding himself in an empty hall.

Although it was dark all around, he could still vaguely see that his brother Gongyu Sarong was looking at him with a worried expression.

"Big brother, you also sensed it?" Gongyu Sarong asked anxiously.

Gong Yusa nodded solemnly, "Two of my secret guards have died, no, there are already three at this time!"

"Master, they must have encountered a strong enemy, we have to rush to support as soon as possible-"

"No!"

Gong Yu Sayan immediately shook his head and interrupted his brother's words, "Master, they must be deliberately attracting the enemy's manpower in order to create more opportunities for us. In any case, we must also complete the 'Thorn Cold' plan, and we must not disappoint Master, let alone His Majesty the Emperor!"

His words were extremely high-sounding, and they were righteous and strict, so that Gongyu Sarong had to obey.

"Okay, big brother, I'll listen to you! Let's rush into the Funing Hall and kill Leng Yiqing!"

Gongyu Sarong said as he stepped forward and opened the closed door of the hall.

A cold wind with large snowflakes in his face made him shiver unconsciously.

But he did not hesitate to take a big stride into the snow-covered courtyard.

And Gongyu Sayan and the ten Chiyang Sect disciples also followed, following him all the way, through this spacious courtyard, through the palace gates, and all the way out of the empty Shoukang Palace.

Except for the occasional whistling sound of wind and snow, there was still silence all around.

Perhaps it was so quiet that the rustling sound they made when they stepped on the snow became audible, giving people a strange feeling of walking in a dream.

But at this moment, several heart-stirring bowstring sounds suddenly sounded, completely breaking their dream journey!

Immediately afterward, there was another shrill and piercing sound of arrows.

Accompanied by snowflakes flying in the sky, a dense rain of arrows fell on them......
