Ye Li silently watched as the black clothed men died under the arrows. She raised her head to look at the remaining people. The leader of the black clothed men chuckled and said, "Good, as expected of the Ding Kingdom, as expected of the Black Cloud Cavalry. However ….. does the princess think that we only have these preparations? "
Ye Li slowly walked down from the roof and calmly looked at the black clothed men, "No matter how much preparation you have, I don't plan on letting you leave alive today. You should be the true leader of the Night Assassins, right? "
The black clothed man was startled and quickly smiled, "It seems that my people have already told the princess everything. Good method! Since that's the case ….. then let's see who's the real deal! "After speaking, the black clothed man suddenly flew up and pounced at Ye Li. During this time, he even dodged the two arrows that were shot from the shadows. Zhuo Jing frowned and raised his hand to signal for the arrows to stop. Ye Li calmly looked at the black clothed man's ferocious momentum. She slightly moved her body to the side to avoid a knife. Her sleeves fluttered and a silver knife flew towards the black clothed man's wrist. A trace of astonishment flashed through the black clothed man's eyes. He turned the large knife in his hand and cut off Ye Li's attack. Ye Li lightly snorted and the dagger in her hand blocked the large knife. She then let go of the dagger and quickly used her other hand to stab at the black clothed man's left ribs. Ye Li's dagger was originally made by an expert Mo Xiuyao using cold iron essence according to her own drawing. Not only was the style strange, but it could also cut through iron like mud. The moment it collided with the large knife, sparks flew everywhere. It actually didn't fall and left a trace of a scar on the knife. The dagger itself was still in perfect condition and was still emitting cold light.
The black clothed man quickly dodged Ye Li's attack and the gaze he used to stare at Ye Li became even more dangerous. Originally, he didn't put this Princess Consort of Ding in his eyes because this Princess Ding's internal energy couldn't even be considered an expert. It could only be considered not bad. But in just a short exchange, Princess Ding, who didn't rely on her internal energy at all, almost made him suffer. If this woman had a high level of internal energy, the black-clothed man didn't dare to think that he would be her opponent.
Ye Li did not intend to fight the other party head-on. She knew when to stop and quickly retreated to a safe distance. He looked at the black-clothed man indifferently and said with a smile, "The leader of the Night Killers is only so-so. Take him down. "
"Yes." Zhuo Jing nodded and gestured into the darkness.
In the darkness, a few figures quietly appeared in the courtyard and started to fight with the black-clothed men without saying a word. These people's martial arts were very similar to Ye Li's. Strictly speaking, they were far from being a match for the black-clothed men. However, they were very accurate and fast, which made people speechless. As long as a blade, palm, or circle hit the black-clothed man, it would definitely cause a lot of damage to him. However, they cooperated with each other very well. In addition, they had the secret help of a master archer. In less than a quarter of an hour, they took down all the assassins in the courtyard. Only two of them suffered light injuries.
The leader of the Night Killers had his acupuncture points sealed and was tied up in a strange way with a rope. Ye Li walked over and said with a faint smile, "I heard that the true identity of the leader of the Night Killers is very mysterious. Even the Tianyi Pavilion, which is known to be the most well-informed in the world, doesn't know. It seems that this consort will be able to solve this mystery today? "
Zhuo Jing reached out and untied the mask on the black-clothed man's face, revealing a forty-something year old face with a determined expression. Ye Li calmly looked at the stranger in front of her. Feng Zhiyao, who had been standing on the wall and watching them the entire time, actually fell down from the wall this time. He stared at the black-clothed man and cried out in alarm, "Mu Qingcang!"
Feng Zhiyao fell into the courtyard and frowned as he looked at the black-clothed man in front of him.
Hearing this, Ye Li raised her eyebrows with interest and said with a faint smile, "Da Chu State's number one expert … Mu Qingcang? You're even willing to send out such a top expert. Your Highness really thinks highly of this consort. " Mu Qingcang's expression was cold as he said faintly, "This one doesn't understand what Princess means. The Night Killers are paid to do things. What does it matter if your Highness or not?" Ye Li raised her eyebrows and looked at him with a faint smile in her eyes. She didn't know why, but Mu Qingcang seemed to be unable to withstand her gaze and turned his head away in a somewhat awkward manner. Ye Li tilted her head and sized him up a few times. She smiled faintly and said, "Da Chu State's number one expert? This consort seems to have exaggerated a bit, right? "
"What right do you have to say that?!" A trace of anger flashed through Mu Qingcang's eyes. He once again turned his gaze to Ye Li and glared at her. Princess Ding could insult his actions and even his character, but she absolutely could not insult his dignity as Da Chu State's number one expert. He swept his eyes over the people standing around him and sneered, "Just based on these juniors …" Halfway through his words, he met Ye Li's mocking gaze and swallowed the rest of his words with an ugly expression. Regardless of how these people caught him, it was a fact that they caught Da Chu State's number one expert without any losses. Since ancient times, there was no first place in literature and no second place in martial arts. Even if you had the ability to reach the heavens, a loss was a loss.
Ye Li nodded and said with a smile, "They were indeed lucky to have defeated you today, but you better believe me. Not to mention one Mu Qingcang, even if there were a few more Mu Qingcangs, this princess would still capture them." Mu Qingcang sneered, obviously not believing her. Ye Li did not get angry and continued, "This consort said that you are Da Chu State's number one expert was exaggerated. It is not because you lost to them. It is because … you are already old. "Mu Qingcang's heart skipped a beat. His face twisted and gradually became ashen. He was not yet forty years old and was not considered old for someone who practiced martial arts. However, he was indeed old. Of the Four Great Experts in the World, the oldest was Xiling Jhennam Prince of Gojoseon. Although he lost an arm in a battle with Mo Liufang in the past, he had real power over Xiling and was famous for his fighting prowess. The second was Yanwang Chamber's Master Ling Tiehan. Although they were both Jianghu people, Yanwang Chamber's name shook Jianghu. Even the nobles of the four countries did not dare to lightly offend them. The youngest was Da Chu State's Prince Ding, Mo Xiuyao. Although he was seriously injured and crippled in his youth, his name shook the world in his youth and he was known as the Young God of War. As for him … he was a few years older than Ling Tiehan. Although he had the title of Da Chu State's number one expert, he could only watch over a single night and slowly grow old. He could neither fight on the battlefield nor roam Jianghu freely. When people talked about the title of Da Chu State's number one expert, they would often sigh with regret: If not for Prince Ding's misfortune, Da Chu State's number one expert would have long been replaced …
Ye Li looked at the defeated middle-aged man in front of him with some regret and secretly sighed in his heart. Mu Qingcang's ability and ambition should have been a formidable person. Unfortunately, he could only be controlled by others and was in a dilemma. The title of Da Chu State's number one expert was not so easy to hold.
"Since I lost to you, you can kill me or cut me up as you wish," Mu Qingcang said coldly. His eyes were dim and there was a sense of discouragement.
Ye Li waved his hand and said indifferently, "Take him away. Mr. Mu, Ye Li respects you as an expert. It's best if you don't act blindly without thinking and do stupid things like suicide or escape. "
Mu Qingcang snorted softly and allowed the guards beside him to take him away.
Feng Zhiyao finally came back to his senses. He patted the non-existent dust off his body and rubbed his forehead as he walked over, "That person … how could that person be Mu Qingcang?!"
