"How about this, you fight with me. If you win, I'll let your sister go. If you lose, you'll have to leave too." The leading assassin said.
"Me?"
The jade-faced scholar frowned. He suddenly remembered the recent actions of the Underworld.
The Underworld had been looking for siblings recently, and he fit the criteria. However, he didn't expect that the Underworld didn't need so many siblings. They were looking for a pair of siblings instead.
This pair of siblings was him and Nalan Bing!
However, in order to save Nalan Bing, the jade-faced scholar Nalan Jie could only agree.
"Okay, I'll fight with you!"
Nalan Jie nodded.
He was at the 9th level of the Netherpassage Realm, while the assassin in front of him was at the Fulfillment Realm. There was a huge gap between the two of them.
However, Nalan Jie was the number one genius of the Northern Heavens Academy. He might be able to challenge someone of a higher level.
"Senior Brother, you have to win!"
"No, you have to win!"
"The Underworld's assassins are so despicable. Why didn't they send a Netherpassage Realm cultivator to fight with Senior Brother?"
"That's right, too despicable!"
A group of scholars were shouting and yelling.
However, the opponent was an assassin. An assassin who would do anything to achieve his goal. What did it matter if he was called despicable?
"Hmph, kid, you have guts."
The Fulfillment Realm assassin let out a cold laugh and dashed forward for a while.
The jade-faced scholar put away the Devil Suppressing Stone Engraving and walked out.
The Devil Suppressing Stone Engraving was very effective against the Moon Worship Demonic Sect. However, it wasn't necessarily effective against assassins. This was because assassins didn't necessarily cultivate demonic arts. Obviously, this assassin came prepared. He didn't cultivate demonic arts.
Therefore, this battle was unfair!
At this time, Ye Xuan, who was watching from below, was using the Eye of Revelation to secretly size up the situation.
He found that Mo Xueyi wasn't there!
"Aren't Nalan Jie and Nalan Bing Mo Xueyi's enemies? Mo Xueyi came earlier than me. Where did he go?"
Ye Xuan was very puzzled because he didn't find Mo Xueyi's corpse on the ground.
There was only a white-clothed woman's corpse on the ground. It was Nalan Bing's maid, Bai Su.
As for Mo Xueyi, there wasn't even a shadow!
"Maybe before Mo Xueyi arrived, the people from the Underworld had already arrived, so he hid again."
Ye Xuan thought to himself.
At this time, he suddenly noticed that the captured Nalan Bing had been chained up and taken away by a ninth level Netherpassage Realm expert.
"What are you doing?"
The jade-faced scholar was startled. He hastily shouted.
"Brat, you have to get past me first before you have the qualifications to chase after them!"
The Fulfillment Realm expert took off his mask and revealed a scarred face.
"Since that's the case, I'll kill you first!"
The jade-faced scholar, Nalan Jie, didn't say a word and directly rushed over with his long sword.
The scarred assassin also clenched his longsword and rushed forward.
There was a fundamental difference between the Netherpassage Realm and the Fulfillment Realm. When a cultivator broke through from the Netherpassage Realm to the Fulfillment Realm, they would open up a Natal Palace in a certain part of their body.
This Yuan Palace could be used to store True Qi and then condense it into Natal True Qi. This Natal True Qi was much stronger than True Qi.
A first level Fulfillment Realm expert could open up one Natal Palace, a second level Fulfillment Realm expert could open up two Natal Palaces, and so on. A ninth level Fulfillment Realm expert could open up nine Natal Palaces.
Natal Palaces could not only increase the strength of one's soul and physique, they could also be used to condense Natal True Qi. This was why not just anyone could challenge someone of a higher realm.
The jade-faced scholar, Nalan Jie, was powerful, but his opponent was also a seasoned assassin. Nalan Jie was already at a disadvantage in the first exchange.
However, this was already very good. After all, a normal ninth level Netherpassage Realm expert would have been instantly killed by the scarred assassin.
"The jade-faced scholar is strong as expected. However, my goal today is not to kill you!"
The scarred assassin's eyes flashed as his aura suddenly increased.
Second level of the Fulfillment Realm!
"What?"
The jade-faced scholar, Nalan Jie, was shocked. His opponent was hiding his cultivation. This was over.
Even if his opponent was only at the first level of the Fulfillment Realm, he would have a hard time defeating him. Now that his opponent was at the second level of the Fulfillment Realm, he was doomed.
"Come here, brat!"
The scarred assassin instantly burst forward and rushed to the side of the jade-faced scholar. Then, he formed a claw with one hand and grabbed the scholar's neck.
"Ugh!"
The jade-faced scholar was captured in an instant!
"Eldest Senior Brother!"
"Quick, go find the dean! Eldest Senior Brother has been captured!"
"The dean is on the other side. He's been pinned down!"
The group of scholars panicked.
The talented girl in their hearts had been captured, and now even their eldest senior brother had been captured. This was troublesome.
The scarred assassin was at the second level of the Fulfillment Realm. Even if all of them attacked together, they might not be able to do anything to him.
Unless the scarred assassin was replaced by an expert from the Moon Worship Demonic Sect, they might be able to win.
At this time, Nalan Bing had already been taken away by someone. Now that Nalan Jie had been captured by the scarred assassin, the Underworld's mission could be considered complete.
"Let's go!"
The scarred assassin let out a low shout, and everyone quickly retreated.
However, at this time, a figure suddenly appeared from the horizon.
"Let him go!"
A deep voice rang out. Then, a man in a green robe flew over.
"The dean, the dean is here!"
"Haha, these Underworld assassins are dead meat!"
"How can the remnants of the Moon Worship Demonic Sect beat us? They will definitely suffer heavy casualties!"
Following the arrival of the man in blue robes, the fighting spirit of the scholars soared.
This man in blue robes was the current dean of the Northern Heavens Academy, Nalan Hao. He was at the second level of the Fulfillment Realm.
"Let him go!"
After Nalan Hao arrived, his gaze fell on Nalan Jie. At the same time, he let out a low shout.
"Tsk tsk, that won't do!"
The scarred assassin cracked a smile. He put a shackle on Nalan Jie and threw him to the others. He said in a low voice, "Take him and leave first!"
"Yes!"
The other hidden Fulfillment Realm assassin took Nalan Jie and left the area.
"Father, sister has been taken away first!"
Nalan Jie couldn't use his True Energy at this time, so he could only shout.
"Stay here!"
Nalan Hao was furious and immediately attacked.
"Hmph, it's not that easy!"
The scarred assassin let out a low shout and went up to meet him.
In an instant, the two great experts of the second level of the Fulfillment Realm began to fight. The group of scholars below were also restless. They wanted to directly charge over and kill everyone from the Underworld Palace and the Moon Worship Demonic Sect.
However, there were still one or two Fulfillment Realm experts. If they attacked, they would probably suffer heavy losses.
However, this battle wouldn't last long because the ones who were taken away were Nalan Hao's children.
"Assassins of the Underworld, I want you dead!"
Nalan Hao roared at the sky and took out a piece of calligraphy from his Yin and Yang Ring.
"Whoosh!"
Nalan Hao unfolded the calligraphy and used the power of Manifestation to enlarge it.
