On the ground.
A few masked men dressed in black, of varying numbers, were launching an ambush at the spot where Yun Yang was about to land in the middle.
The ambushers had no qualms, barging straight in, causing the ordinary people on the street to be sent flying.
In spite of this, they did not care at all. In their eyes, Yun Yang was their only target. Anyone who stood in their way was only an obstacle; their deaths were not to be regretted.
The murderous intent was unprecedentedly thick, condensing, converging, and surging.
In the sky, on the ground, in the air …
Countless assassins targeted at Yun Yang from all directions had truly formed a three-dimensional net with no blind spots!
In addition, the ambushers were all top-notch assassins, experts with extraordinary cultivation base!
Yun Yang, who was in a precarious situation, was unprecedentedly focused. He held Shangguan Lingxiu with one hand while the other gripped the well-tempered steel saber tightly. Bam, bam, bam …
The saber in his hand was constantly changing its trajectory – slashing, flicking, sticking, blocking, deflecting, deflecting …
All the incoming weapons and arrows were shot down without missing a single one.
At the same time, his body was constantly changing its direction along with the weapons that came at him from the sky. He kept evading the attacks and leveraging on them.
He was still thinking, 'Who is it? Who is it? '
As he spun, he caught a glimpse of Room Number One, which had long been penetrated from the north to the south. The third prince's followers and guards had all died there; not a single one was spared.
Although Yun Yang had the intention to kill them due to their evil deeds, he did not intend to do it immediately. He did not expect them to be dead until the moment he did it himself. He did not know if this was a good cycle of reincarnation and who would be spared by the heavens.
However, this whetstone could be considered useless from now on.
After today's events, the Third Prince would be lucky if he didn't go crazy or become handicapped, not to mention sharpening his saber!
Yun Yang heaved a sigh of regret.
'I really didn't want to cripple you. I really wanted to preserve your strength … but your luck … '
At this moment, a heart-wrenching howl that sounded like it was about to cry rang out, "Quick … save His Highness the third prince quickly … Quick … Quick! Reporting officer … Young Master Yun is under attack … Quick, quick, quick … "
That voice came from the manager of the Drifting Fragrance Pavilion.
The fat shopkeeper felt like he was about to die. He felt as if the sky had collapsed on top of his head. His entire body, including his heart, was freezing cold.
After this unforeseen event, no matter what, the Drifting Fragrance House was destined to be finished.
When Yun Yang had brutally killed the third prince's followers, although it was somewhat of a hindrance, there was a reason for it. Spectators like them would at most have to pay a fine after the event, nothing more, when it came to a fight between deities and high-level officials.
But what happened next was too horrifying. It directly turned into a murder in the Jianghu.
First, all of the Third Prince's attendants and guards, more than ten of them, had died here. Although the Third Prince's life and death were still unknown, even if he was not dead, he was already on the verge of death. It was not optimistic at all that he would be able to hold on until the end of this incident!
At the same time, King Xiaoyao's crown prince, Yun Yang, was besieged by many assassins from all directions. He was at an absolute disadvantage, and the atmosphere of being surrounded and assassinated made the situation even more dire.
One was the emperor's son.
The other was King Xiaoyao's son.
If either of these two were to die here, not only the shopkeeper, but his entire family would be finished as well! The Drifting Fragrance Pavilion … Compared to the annihilation of an entire family, this pavilion was only a small matter.
Annihilating nine families was never just an adjective!
Oh my God … Why am I so unlucky?
The shopkeeper was bitter, so anxious that he was about to hang himself. However, he dared not die even if he wanted to. He had to face this mess, hoping for a fluke, hoping for the slightest chance!
In midair, a purple light shone. Yun Yang let out a long howl, his entire body spinning rapidly like a top. Saber light shot out with him, slicing the two masked men in black into minced meat wherever the saber light passed. Countless rays of light were gathering towards the spot where Yun Yang was about to land, waiting for the moment he landed to be subjected to the innumerable attacks.
However, Yun Yang did not land as the assassins had expected. Instead, he slashed the ground with his saber first. The recoil from the saber jolted him up from the ground. As his purple robe fluttered, he was like a bolt of purple lightning, charging towards the top of a wall in the nick of time!
With a loud bang, a masked man in black who was on top of the wall was thrown off the wall by Yun Yang's forceful slash. The masked man, who had yet to land, spat out a mouthful of blood, mixed with pieces of his internal organs. It was obvious that he was no longer alive.
The moment the saber energy collided, the other party's internal organs had already been destroyed. Even his deific consciousness and soul had been completely shattered!
Yun Yang had already used a hundred and twenty percent of his strength in this strike in order to gain a foothold.
Even though he had broken through the ambush in a stunning manner and succeeded in one strike, the head-on clash that was not fanciful at all still caused Yun Yang to stagger and sway a little.
Four beams of light shot towards Yun Yang who had yet to regain his footing, the killing intent did not slow down at all.
With a flip of his body, Yun Yang had already brought Shangguan Lingxiu down from the top of the wall, avoiding the pursuit of the four beams of light.
Once he landed, Yun Yang panted heavily, his face pale. Large beads of sweat seeped from his forehead. He was in a terrible state, far from the calm and stunning demeanor he had displayed earlier.
Yun Yang had not expected this wave of ambushing assassins to be so valiant.
A few of them were supremely high-level cultivators in the ninth heaven realm!
The leader had yet to show himself, so he must be even stronger.
The assassin who had been killed by Yun Yang just now had a cultivation base of eighth heaven pinnacle!
Where did these fellows come from?
Yun Yang had truly not expected this to happen. It was a huge surprise to him.
Since the appearance of the Dictum of Death, Yun Yang had already anticipated the gathering of top-notch assassins in Tiantang City. In fact, Yun Yang had basically all the martial artists who had entered Tiantang City during this period of time. Even the area of each person's activity was clearly recorded. His men were watching over every corner.
Yun Yang did not feel the slightest bit guilty about being the local boss of Tiantang City; he had the capital to back it up!
In spite of this, he did not have the slightest bit of information about these masked men in black who had suddenly appeared!
