When Ji Tianxing returned to the Laifu Inn, all the guests were still asleep. Only the shopkeeper and servants were busy.
He returned to his room and sat cross-legged on the bed to cultivate.
He had used up a strand of sword Qi to kill Xu Zifeng's companion, so he had to replenish it as soon as possible.
As for Xu Zifeng's private trade, he had decided to investigate and find out who the mastermind was.
He had a strong premonition that this matter was related to his second uncle.
However, he was in Taiye Town and could not investigate this matter. He could only return to the Imperial City and make further plans.
After a while, he entered a state of cultivation and absorbed the Qi of Heaven and Earth to condense sword Qi.
Time passed quickly, and when it was noon, the inn became lively again. There was a hubbub of voices, and it was clamorous and noisy.
Ji Tianxing cultivated all the way until dusk.
Not only did he condense another strand of sword Qi, but he also cultivated the 12 strands of sword Qi to be more solid and powerful.
After dinner, he went to bed early to rest.
However, in the latter half of the night, when he was sleeping soundly, he suddenly heard a "kacha" sound from outside the window.
He immediately woke up and subconsciously reached for the Blood Dragon Sword beside the bed.
When he held the Blood Dragon Sword and opened his eyes, he saw that the window was wide open.
A black figure jumped up from the treetops outside the window and landed in the room. He rolled on the ground and pounced toward the bed.
This person's movements were very agile and vigorous. His speed was extremely fast. He held a treasured sword in his hand that was emitting cold light in all directions and fiercely stabbed towards Ji Tian Xing.
Moreover, his palm and sword were shining with a faint yellow True Essence light. He was obviously a True Element Boundary martial artist.
This sword was fast and ruthless. If Ji Tianxing was still asleep, he would have been stabbed to death on the spot.
At this critical moment, Ji Tianxing did not have time to think. He subconsciously waved the Blood Dragon Sword to block.
"Clang!" There was a sound of metal colliding. The Blood Dragon Sword blocked the opponent's attack but was shaken by the huge force.
Ji Tianxing was also pushed back by the huge force and almost hit the wall of the bed.
He rolled to the bottom of the bed and swung his sword at the assassin.
The black-clothed assassin clearly hadn't expected that he would wake up from his stupor. His sword strike, which he thought would surely kill him, had been blocked. He couldn't help but let out a soft cry of surprise.
Seeing the Blood Dragon Sword slashing towards him, his body curled up strangely. After dodging the Blood Dragon Sword, he charged towards Ji Tianxing.
Ji Tianxing was enveloped by the three sword lights. He felt a chill run down his spine.
He instantly determined that the assassin's strength was at least at the third level of the True Energy Realm, and he was no match for him.
At this critical moment, he could only wave his sword with all his might to block the attack.
"Ding Ding Dang Dang Dang" sounds of collision rang out again. He was once again forced back five steps and knocked over a vase that was half a man's height.
The vase was smashed into smithereens, and the sound of shattering spread throughout the inn, waking up many guests.
Taking advantage of Ji Tianxing's unsteady footsteps, the assassin in black was overjoyed and pounced over, brandishing his sword to stab Ji Tianxing's throat.
In a moment of desperation, Ji Tianxing subconsciously struck out a palm at the black-clothed assassin, releasing a streak of Sword Qi.
Swish!
The two of them were too close, and the black-clothed assassin was caught off guard. His left eye was pierced by the Sword Qi.
"Ah!"
The black-clothed assassin let out a blood-curdling scream. He immediately withdrew his sword and retreated two steps. He covered his bloody eyes with his hands, and his entire body trembled in pain.
Ji Tianxing thought to himself, "Good chance!"
He immediately counterattacked, and once again struck out a palm at the black-clothed assassin's chest, releasing another streak of Sword Qi.
Even though the black-clothed assassin was blind in one eye, his strength was indeed powerful. At this critical moment, he was still able to maintain his calm, and brandished his sword with all his might, releasing two streaks of dazzling Sword Qi.
"Dang!" Ji Tianxing's Sword Qi was shattered by the treasured sword.
"Bastard, go to hell!"
The black-clothed assassin angrily roared. His strength and speed suddenly doubled. He brandished his sword with all his might, releasing six streaks of dazzling cold light, enveloping Ji Tianxing's vital points.
Obviously, he had used all his strength, and wanted to kill Ji Tianxing on the spot, and then escape far away.
Ji Tianxing was forced to retreat. After retreating three steps, his back hit the wall.
He had no way to retreat. His front and sides were blocked by the dazzling Sword Qi, and there was nowhere to hide.
Seeing that his vital points were about to be pierced by the Sword Qi, blood splattering everywhere.
At this moment of life and death, he still maintained a calm mind, and his eyes stared at the incoming Sword Qi.
"If you want me to die, don't even think about living!"
Instead of retreating, he advanced and rushed toward the black-clothed assassin as if he was courting death!
He brandished his sword with his right hand, releasing a streak of Sword Qi to block the assassin's Sword Qi, and his left hand fiercely slapped toward the assassin's head.
"Dang, dang, dang, dang!"
After the two swords clashed four times, the Blood Dragon Sword was finally sent flying, and it smashed into the wall behind Ji Tianxing.
His left shoulder and right abdomen were also hit by the Sword Qi, and there was a finger-long cut on them. Blood immediately gushed out.
At the same time, his left palm also hit the black-clothed assassin's head.
"Bang!"
With a muffled sound, the Sword Qi from the Yangchi Acupoint on his wrist shot out and silently drilled into the black-clothed assassin's head.
"Uh …"
The black-clothed assassin immediately let out a muffled groan. He threw away his sword, covered his bleeding head with both hands, and staggered back.
"You! You actually … "
He stared at Ji Tianxing, and his blood-covered face was full of horror.
Unfortunately, he didn't even finish his sentence before his vitality was cut off, and he fell to the ground.
Ji Tianxing had released three Sword Qis in a row, and his body was very weak.
He endured his injuries and picked up the Blood Dragon Sword from the corner of the wall. He cut a few strips of cloth from his robe and bandaged the wounds on his left shoulder and right abdomen.
At this moment, the guests in the inn were alarmed, and they all opened their doors and windows to look outside.
A few warriors rushed up to the third floor with swords and sabers, and arrived at the door of Ji Tianxing's room.
The door was kicked open with a bang. The warrior who rushed into the room first was a young man wearing brown leather armor and holding a long saber.
Ji Tianxing raised his head to look at this person, and he recognized him as the leader of the Warriors Adventurer Group.
The five martial artists following closely behind him were all his subordinates.
A group of people poured into the room, and two of them were holding oil lamps in their hands.
When everyone saw the injured Ji Tianxing and the body of the black-clothed assassin lying on the ground, they immediately understood what was going on.
Fortunately, they had all heard the noise and came to check the situation. They had no malice toward Ji Tianxing.
"Brother, are you okay? Do you need help? "
The leader of the Warriors Adventurer Group walked up to Ji Tianxing, grinned, and asked in a friendly manner.
Ji Tianxing shook his head and continued to bandage his wounds.
The leader of the Warriors Adventurer Group withdrew his gaze and checked the body of the black-clothed assassin with an oil lamp. He found a purse and a badge on the body.
He picked up the badge and observed it for a moment. Suddenly, his expression changed, and he whispered to Ji Tianxing, "Brother, this assassin is from the Blood-clothed Tower. It seems that you're in big trouble!"
Ji Tianxing raised his eyebrows and asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"
The leader of the Warriors Adventurer Group moved closer and said in a low voice, "Brother, the Blood-clothed Tower is the number one assassin organization in Yunzhou. They have many fierce assassins under their command. The Blood-clothed Tower's assassination success rate is very high, and there are few cases of failure. They will not give up until they achieve their goal. "
"However, the Blood-clothed Tower's commission is very expensive, and ordinary forces can't hire them. It seems that you've offended a big force. "
"I'm afraid you can't stay in Taiye Town any longer. Run for your life as soon as possible!"
