Qin Yi had carefully calculated this arrow.
Yun Chao was obviously used to being domineering in the Royal Capital. He had never thought that someone would dare to attack him in broad daylight.
This fatal arrow suddenly arrived, directly entering his left ear, and at the same time, pierced through his right ear.
Yun Chao could only let out a blood-curdling scream as he left a mist of blood. He fell off the horse.
His body twitched a few times before he died.
The sudden turn of events caused the group to be in chaos. Yun Chao's followers then rushed forward in a frenzy.
"Young Master Yun has been assassinated! Young Master Yun has been assassinated!"
"Catch the assassin! Catch the assassin!"
The two rank three or four Dao foundation realm experts reacted the fastest. They both pounced in the direction where the arrow was shot from. However, at the same time that Qin Yi shot this arrow, he turned over and went into the deep alley on the other side. After a few ups and downs, he disappeared without a trace.
By the time the two rank three or four Dao foundation realm experts rushed over, they were long gone.
The two powerhouses at the third or fourth stage of the Dao foundation Realm looked at each other with astonishment in their eyes. The enemy's sneak attack ability was so strong, the force was so precise, and the calculation was so precise.
If the target of the sneak attack was them, they would probably be a corpse by now.
They turned around to look at the other companions. They were all surrounding Yun Chao's corpse, crying and wailing with expressions of fear and despair.
It was obvious that Yun Chao was dead. The fate of these followers was obvious.
"Old Zhao, Yun Chao is dead …" One of them had a bitter expression on his face.
The other person looked around with lifeless eyes and mumbled, "What should we do?"
The first person said in a hoarse voice, "I'm afraid that all of us can't escape the fate of being buried with him. You know the character of the three clan elders. Yun Chao is his flesh and blood, and he is the support of all his ambitions. Without Yun Chao, all the ambitions and hard work of the three clan elders will be for naught. "
"Then what should we do? Are we really going to be buried with him? "The person who was addressed as Old Zhao's voice was filled with fear.
"No! The murderer must be caught. As long as we catch the culprit, we might even be able to give an explanation to the Third Clan Elder. "
"It's useless." Another person said bitterly, "Yun Chao is dead. Even if we catch the murderer, we won't be able to get him back. We'll either be buried with him, or we'll have to fend for ourselves. "
Old Zhao's eyes flashed with determination. "Of the thirty-six stratagems, retreat is the best. Let's calm these idiots down first. We'll escape from the city in the name of pursuing the murderer. I'll never return to the capital. "
Although they were raised by the Yun family, they were still unwilling to be buried with Yun Chao.
The first person glanced at Old Zhao and agreed, "Then it's decided. Let's go and calm these idiots down first. "
The two of them understood tacitly and scurried back to their original spots. They checked Yun Chao's breathing and confirmed that he was dead.
Old Zhao said, "All of you, keep your spirits up. Young Master Yun had been assassinated, and the murderer couldn't have gotten far. Don't make it public yet. It was that bastard who guided us to Black Clothes Alley. It might have something to do with that bastard. The two of us will go to Listen to the Rain Pavilion first and take down that brat. You guys stay where you are and don't let anyone come near. Don't let anyone else know that Young Master Yun was assassinated. "
The rest of them were still in a daze. They only calmed down a little when a leader came out to take charge of the situation.
The two Rank Three and Rank Four Dao Foundation Realm powerhouses left after giving some instructions.
The remaining followers of Yun Chao were still in a daze. Looking at Yun Chao's corpse, they felt that everything was so unreal.
Just a moment ago, Yun Chao was still in high spirits, going around arresting people who spread rumors. How did he turn into an ice-cold corpse in the blink of an eye?
Didn't the Yun family already control the situation in the capital?
Didn't they say that the remaining members of the Jiang family no longer had any power to resist and could only hide like rats?
What exactly was going on?
Could it be that it was really like what everyone said, that this was an internal strife in the Yun family? The bloodline of the Yun family's third clan elder killed the sixth clan elder? Now, the bloodline of the Grand Clan Elder wanted to take revenge on the sixth clan elder? They made a move on Young Master Yun Chao?
No matter what the reason was, when these followers saw Yun Chao's tragic death, their hearts were filled with indescribable fear.
Especially the two Rank 3 and 4 Dao foundation experts. They hurriedly gave some instructions and left quickly. They said they were going to apprehend the murderer.
However, when the cold wind blew, everyone's minds slowly regained some calmness.
Someone shuddered and suddenly thought of an extremely terrifying matter.
"Everyone, Captain Zhao and Captain Gu said they were going to the Tingyu Tower to apprehend the murderer. Why didn't they bring us along? Wouldn't there be more assurance with more people? Also, why didn't they inform the third clan elder at the first instance when such a major incident happened? Could it be that they weren't afraid of the third clan elder looking into it later? "
These words were like a wake-up call to those who were dreaming.
The rest looked at each other. It was as if a basin of cold water had been splashed on their heads. Instantly, many people became clear-headed.
"Things are not looking good. They must be afraid of taking responsibility and fled!"
"Damn it, they're too cunning! They must have fled first. Leaving us here to take the blame foolishly! "
To be able to be chosen by Yun Chao and become his followers, none of these people were fools.
Someone pointed it out. With a little thought, everyone immediately realized the seriousness of the situation. Those two bastards obviously treated them like fools and fled first, leaving them behind to stall for time. Otherwise, why didn't they let them spread the news of Zhang Yunchao's assassination?
This was clearly to buy time for them to escape.
Everyone's heart instantly sank to the bottom.
"Let's quickly inform the third clan elder. Those two bastards are too sinister. As captains, they failed to protect Young Master Yun and fled with a guilty conscience after something happened. They simply deserve to die! "
"Right, immediately report to the third clan elder and push all the blame onto them."
Each and every one of them was clearly not easy to deal with. After realizing that they were tricked, they also started to think of countermeasures and looked for a way out.
Under the crowd's agitation, someone did not lose his cool and said in a deep voice, "They're so smart, yet we're all fools? Go and report to the third clan elder now. Which one of you can withstand the third clan elder's thunderous fury? With the third clan elder's character, who do you think can escape? "
These words made everyone calm down.
Yun Chao was dead, and the two captains with the most authority had fled. Even these two captains did not dare to face the third clan elder's wrath and fled first. They were just small shrimps. If they went to report this news now, they would definitely be like moths flying into the fire and would definitely die.
"In for a penny, in for a pound. We must also escape for our lives!"
