"Gao Yong, Zhang Qiang, why are you here?"
On the street outside Jingren Square in Taiyuan City, Wang Chengwu, who was hurrying back to the Wang Clan Residence, happened to run into a group of people heading south of the city. Wang Chengwu couldn't help but be startled when he saw the leader of the group, and he hurried forward to greet him.
When the two men saw Wang Chengwu, they quickly dismounted from their horses and bowed respectfully, "Senior Commander, we are following the Patriarch's orders and following the secret signal you left on the road, we are heading to meet you!"
"No need! The matter has been resolved! Come back with me! "
Hearing this, Wang Chengwu came to a realization and waved his hand.
"Resolved …?"
The two were startled, and then one of them asked tentatively, "Then … what about the Second Commander?"
"Dead!"
Wang Chengwu replied indifferently, and then impatiently urged, "There's been a change in the situation. Come back with me to report to the patriarch!"
"Yes!"
Gao Yong and Zhang Qiang cupped their fists and accepted the order, and then the group immediately changed from the rear to the front, heading toward the Wang Clan Residence in the northeast.
"Eh? Why are they going back? "
In the darkness, two armored soldiers were hiding in a corner, muttering to each other as they watched the Wang Clan guard turn back.
"Just now, I seemed to have heard them call out something about Grand Commander. Could that person from the southern part of the city be Wang Chengwu of the Wang Clan? What is he doing in the southern part of the city so late at night? "
"You're asking me? Who should I ask? The question now is, should we continue to follow them? "
"Follow my ass! Can't you see that they're going back to the Wang Clan Residence? Let's go back and report to General Dugu! "
"That's right! Then let's go back! "
The two stood up and headed toward the courier station in the north.
Yes, these two were the two Imperial Army soldiers that Dugu Xin had sent to follow the Wang Clan Shadow Guards.
In the dilapidated house of Bao Sheng Lane, there was a soul-stirring assassination and rescue. After Dugu Feiying and his men left, everything returned to normal. However, two black-clothed men landed in the courtyard. They looked at each other, then entered the main house and began to search for something seriously.
Their gazes swept over the furniture that had been knocked over, the tiles that had fallen from the roof, and finally landed on the bloodstain at the head of the bed and the deep knife mark on the wooden head of the bed!
"It's a saber mark. The other party pierced through a person, and the tip of the saber stuck into the headboard. killed in one strike. His strength is above mine!"
One of the thinner men in black looked at the saber mark at the head of the bed and muttered to himself.
"Ha! It's just a Saber Seal, but it's enough to make you feel inferior. You're a Grandmaster Realm expert! "
The other man in black, who was taller, couldn't help but snort.
These two people were precisely the two most capable generals under Zhao Deyan, Xuan Ye and Tian Ying! Of course, the two of them were secretly competing with each other.
Xuan Ye looked at Sky Eagle as if he was looking at an idiot. Then, he turned his head to look at the long and shallow saber mark on the wall and said indifferently, "Controlling a saber with Qi and being able to condense it into a solid saber aura. This person is definitely a saber master, and his realm is definitely above the Grandmaster realm. In Sourcepeak City, I have only met one person like this!"
Tianying Tian Ying couldn't help but become serious. He stepped forward and looked at the long and narrow saber mark on the wall. It was as Xuan Ye had said. It wasn't a physical saber, but saber Qi, which could also be called a saber aura. He turned to Xuan Ye and asked, "Who is it?"
Xuan Ye turned and said, "Wang Chengwu, the commander of the Wang Clan Shadow Guards. I fought with him during the assassination of Dugu Xin in the south of the city!"
Tianying was silent. Although he had always been at odds with Xuan Ye, he still believed in Xuan Ye's personal strength. If even Xuan Ye couldn't defeat someone, then there was no need to talk about him!
"There's a smell of medicine in this room. When we came, we saw the woman in the room being taken away by an army. Judging from their armor, there were imperial guards and soldiers from the Bing Province Barracks. This means that the woman in the room is very important to them. Go back and report to the Guard Master. I'll follow them and act according to the situation!"
Xuan Ye saw that there were no more valuable clues in the room, so he walked out with his hands behind his back. When he reached the door, he turned to Tianying behind him and said.
"Based on …"
Sky Eagle subconsciously wanted to say, "Why do you let me run errands while you do the work that might lead to meritorious service?" However, he swallowed his words. Putting aside the fact that there was a saber wielder in the Grandmaster Realm who was more powerful than Xuan Ye, even the well-trained imperial guards and the Bing Province Barracks' soldiers were not people that he could deal with.
When they first arrived here, Wang Chengwu had just left. Then, not long after, Fang Gongteng arrived with four hundred soldiers. Therefore, the two of them didn't have the chance to get close to the room. They could only hide in the dark and watch as Dugu Feiying, Fang Gongteng, and the rest left with an old woman, two maids, and a bloody corpse.
"… Okay!"
Tianying nodded after hesitating for a moment.
However, Xuan Ye was already nowhere to be seen. A hint of anger flashed across Tianying's eyes. He cursed, "F * ck! This guy won't steal the limelight again, will he? "
Although he cursed, he couldn't change the fact that he was weaker than Xuan Ye. As the saying went, one should do as much as one could. Right now, he had to obediently go back and report to Zhao Deyan!
