Luo Shui was alone, creating chaos in the 72 cities filled with Martial Gods.
Ji Tianxing and Yun Yao were well aware of how dangerous her situation was.
Therefore, the two of them would never let Luo Shui fight alone. They stayed in the Divine Pagoda to cultivate in seclusion.
They even changed their route and no longer rushed back to the Pillar of Heavens Mountains. Instead, they went straight to the 72 cities.
On the way to the 72 cities, Ji Tianxing sent a message to Huanglong Daoist, ordering him to guard the Pillar of Heavens Mountains well.
Then, he sent a message to Luo Shui, asking about her situation and plans.
Luo Shui told him and Yun Yao about what had happened.
She also suggested that it was best to act separately. It would be better to restrain the foreign race experts in the 72 cities.
Ji Tianxing expressed his agreement, so he didn't meet up with her.
He and Yun Yao planned to rush directly to the 72 cities to carry out the assassination mission.
The Ruins of God was not far from the 72 cities.
The Glazed Fire Dragon flew for a day and a night before arriving in the 72 cities.
The two of them entered a thousand-year-old ancient city called "Yang An".
This city was in the southernmost part of the 72 cities. There were spies from the Pillar of Heavens Mountains hidden in it.
Before entering Yang An City, Ji Tianxing had contacted the spies in the city and understood the situation in the city.
There were 15 Martial Sage Realm black-armored guards in the city. There was also a Martial God Realm captain previously.
However, after Luo Shui created chaos, the captain left Yang An City.
According to the spies' speculations, the captain might have met up with the other captains and ambushed Luo Shui.
When Ji Tianxing heard this news, he made Yang An City his first assassination target.
In the evening, the Glazed Fire Dragon stopped in the mountain range outside the city.
Yun Yao kept the Glazed Fire Dragon. She and Ji Tianxing used the Invisibility Technique and quietly sneaked into Yang An City.
Yang An City was protected by a sacred array with a radius of 200 miles.
However, Ji Tianxing easily broke the array and opened a hidden gap.
When he and Yun Yao sneaked into the city, they were not discovered by anyone and did not raise any alarm.
The two of them quietly shuttled through the city, silently approaching the City Lord's Mansion.
As time passed, night fell.
A soundless assassination began.
Ji Tianxing's consciousness locked onto several black-armored guards in a certain palace.
One of them was cultivating in an underground secret room, trying to break through to the Rank 4 Martial Sage Realm.
"Shua!"
Ji Tianxing silently appeared in the corner of the secret room and launched an attack from the darkness.
Swish!
With a flick of his right hand, he shot out a three-inch-long golden flying dagger.
A golden light flashed, and the flying dagger instantly pierced through the black-armored guard's chest.
A bloody hole the size of a fist appeared on the cold, pitch-black armor.
The terrifying God Slaying Flying Knife shattered the blood-colored scales on the man's chest and flew out from his back.
The black-armored guard died on the spot.
Even at the moment of his death, he still didn't understand what was going on.
He also couldn't guess who the person who had tried to assassinate him was.
When the black-armored guard's corpse slowly fell to the ground, Ji Tianxing also left the secret room and quietly rushed to the next one.
In a certain room on the second floor of the palace.
This person was learning the human race's language and writing to understand the situation in Shenwu Continent.
Ji Tianxing silently appeared in the room and had just raised his hand to shoot out the God Slaying Flying Knife when this person was alerted.
He had a premonition that death was imminent, and he didn't even turn his head. Instead, he subconsciously curled up and moved to the side.
Such sharp intuition and decisive response made Ji Tianxing have a whole new level of respect for him.
However, all of this was futile against the God Slaying Flying Knife.
"Swish!"
A golden light flashed, and the three-inch-long God Slaying Flying Knife instantly pierced through the black-armored guard's back.
The flying knife pierced through the black armor and also destroyed the scales on his chest.
His life force and his lifetime's worth of strength collapsed at the same time. He didn't even have time to scream before he was instantly killed.
The flying knife circled around the room once before returning to Ji Tianxing's hand.
When the guard's corpse fell to the ground, Lu Yin turned around and left the room to search for his next target.
At the same time, Yun Yao was on the other side of the city lord's manor, where she had dealt with two black-armored guards.
She had also stealthily appeared and used her Shadowless Twin Swords to instantly kill her targets.
The husband and wife split up and quickly killed one black-armored guard after another.
After a full hundred breaths of time, the two of them had killed ten people without making a single sound.
Within the city lord's manor, there was only one black-armored guard left, and he was handling some matters in the study.
Ji Tianxing was the first to arrive, and he shot out the God Slaying Flying Knife and easily killed this person.
The husband and wife then quietly left the manor and headed to the north and south gates respectively to assassinate the remaining four black-armored guards.
The four guards were on duty today, and they were overseeing the north and south gates. They commanded a large number of city guards and were in charge of maintaining the city's great defensive array.
When Ji Tianxing and Yun Yao arrived, the four black-armored guards were patrolling the city walls with vigilant expressions.
Even so, they could not escape the fate of being killed.
Whoosh!
A ray of golden light streaked across the night sky on the north city wall.
The God Slaying Flying Knife pierced through the chest of a black-armored guard, instantly killing him.
This person's body shook, and he fell onto the city wall, dying in front of everyone's eyes.
There were hundreds of city guards in the surroundings who witnessed this scene with their own eyes. They were all shocked and exclaimed.
However, they were not afraid or depressed. Instead, they were secretly delighted.
After all, these ordinary city guards were all human martial artists.
They were only forced to surrender and submit to the Heaven Punisher Race's ferocious might.
Soon, a ray of golden light lit up on the west city wall and disappeared in the night sky.
The black-armored guard was reprimanding the city guards in a dignified manner when he suddenly died.
The city guards, who were filled with fear after being reprimanded, were dumbfounded and could not help but gasp.
Just like that, Ji Tianxing easily killed two targets.
Throughout the entire process, he did not show his face. He only secretly released the God Slaying Flying Knife.
Soon, Yun Yao also completed her mission and successfully killed two black-armored guards.
At this point, all 15 soldiers of the Heaven Punisher Race in Yang An City had been killed.
To Ji Tianxing and Yun Yao, this was not the first time they had assassinated the elites of the Heaven Punisher Race.
However, there was no doubt that this was their most successful assassination.
After all, both of them had reached the Seventh Rank Martial Sage Realm and their combat strength was comparable to that of a Half-Step Martial God.
The two of them quickly met up and silently exited the city.
Originally, Ji Tianxing had intended to rescue the City Masters, guards, and nobles who had been controlled by the Heaven Punisher Race.
He could use the power of the Heaven Patching Pearl to remove the Soul Controlling Power in their bodies.
However, Yun Yao had dissuaded him. There was no need to do so and waste time.
After all, they could only assassinate the elites of the Heaven Punisher Race and could not truly save Yang An City.
They had to chase the army of the Heaven Punisher Race out of the 72 cities so that they could be saved.
Otherwise, once Ji Tianxing removed the Soul Controlling Technique, the elites of the Heaven Punisher Race would rush over and use the Soul Controlling Technique again.
