"Tang Huan, did any of the killers from the 'Secluded Night Divine Palace' escape?"
Shen Guan's voice interrupted Tang Huan's imagination. Looking over, he saw that the smile on the Great Clan Elder's face had completely disappeared, and dark clouds covered his forehead. The fact that the "Secluded Night Divine Palace" assassins had snuck into the Heavenly Forging City to assassinate Tang Huan had indeed made him furious.
"This time, the 'Secluded Night Divine Palace' sent eight assassins, and three of them are archers."
Tang Huan calmed himself down and said, "There are only two assassins who escaped. One is an ordinary Martial Warriors with the strength of a Martial Lord of the eighth step, and the other is an archer at the peak of the eighth step. Furthermore, he is proficient in the 'Nine Star Linked Pearl' technique. Fortunately, Senior Ye suddenly appeared and scared him away.
Tang Huan did not immediately reveal his guess about the Black Costume Old Man's identity. Furthermore, the last sentence he said, was also somewhat reserved about his own strength.
If the old fatty did not appear, Tang Huan believed that with his own strength, under the complete "Nine Star Linked Pearl" archery technique, it would not be too much of a problem for him to preserve his life. However, it was unavoidable for him to suffer heavy injuries. If he was lucky, he might even be able to fight with him until both sides were injured.
In a situation where there was a distance between them, the archer's advantage was simply too obvious.
Furthermore, the one using the bow and arrow was a Martial Lord at the peak of the eighth step, and he was even using an extremely tyrannical archery technique. This kind of opponent was completely capable of killing Stage Nine Martial Saint, and an ordinary peak of the eighth step Martial Lord would probably be easily killed.
The fact that Tang Huan was able to survive the "Nine Star Linked Pearl" was already extremely shocking.
"Nine Star Linked Pearl?"
Hearing these four words, Shen Guan's face immediately changed, "Someone from the 'Secluded Night Divine Palace' has actually managed to master the 'Nine Star Linked Pearl' technique?"
In a blink of an eye, Shen Guan snorted coldly, his brows filled with anger, "This' Secluded Night Divine Palace 'is truly lawless, to actually dare to carry out an assassination in the Heavenly Forging City! This old man will definitely not let those two people go. They can escape from here, but it won't be that easy to escape from the Heavenly Forging City! "
"Brother Shen, I've already captured them!"
In an instant, a figure passed through the hole in the wall and walked over with large strides. It was a tall and sturdy old man in a green robe, carrying a person in one hand. In a short moment, he had already arrived in front of Tang Huan and Shen Guan.
"So it's Brother Xing Hang, well done!" Shen Guan clapped his hands and laughed.
"Plop! Thump! "
The green-robed old man called Xing Hang casually threw them away, and the two of them fell to the ground like dead dogs, motionless.
Both of them were dressed in black, and the black-clothed middle-aged man who did not wear a hood was coincidentally the one who Tang Huan had let go of earlier to attract the attention of the archers, in order to achieve his goal of creating a diversion.
As for the other person …
When Tang Huan saw it, he frowned. Although that person was wearing a hood, dressed in a black robe, with three quivers tied to his back and a golden longbow hanging on his body, he was clearly taller than the Black Costume Old Man from before. Furthermore, his figure was not as sturdy as his.
"Tang Huan, something's wrong?" Shen Guan keenly sensed the change in Tang Huan's expression.
"I'm afraid this person is a fake."
Tang Huan said in a deep voice, "The archer who escaped should be around fifty to sixty years old, and the one that Senior Xing Hang captured, is probably only around thirty to forty years old."
"Hmm?"
Starship removed the guy's hood, revealing a rather square face. As expected, he was quite young, no more than forty years old.
"What a cunning thing!" Brother Shen, I'll go look for him again!
"Xing Hang was furious, his figure moved, and he had already left the garden.
Shen Guan's sharp gaze swept across the two black clothed men on the ground, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he muttered to himself: "Fifty to sixty years old, proficient in 'Nine Star Linked Pearls', could it be … Could it be him? Impossible, impossible, how could he be mixed up with the 'Secluded Night Divine Palace'? "
"Tang Huan, are you suspecting him as well?" After a while, Shen Guan's gaze suddenly landed on Tang Huan.
"When I was at Feng Ming Mountain, I killed the two sons of the Sha Long Empire's commander, Hong Liang, and he was one of Hong Liang's trusted generals. Most importantly, I met him once in the Dragon Spring Town, and his figure is extremely similar to the killer today." Tang Huan said slowly.
Just now, if Tang Huan had revealed that person's identity from the very beginning, it would not have been very convincing. But now that Shen Guan had guessed it himself, if Tang Huan were to say these words out loud, it would naturally be even more convincing.
"This old man understands."
Shen Guan took a deep breath, and muttered to himself, "Tang Huan, do not spread this news out first, Two Realms Plain, we cannot be in a mess right now." But right after, he sneered, and changed the topic, "However, since he dares to act recklessly in this Heavenly Forging City, this old man will definitely make him pay the price."
"..."
Taking advantage of the fact that there were not many Martial Warriors gathered nearby, Tang Huan quietly left the garden. Naturally, the Divine Weapon Pavilion would take care of the aftermath.
After returning to the Wonder Artifact Hall, Tang Huan asked Pang Bo to send the weapons he had forged in the past few days to the Spirit Feather Merchant Guild, while he brought the little girl and Xiao Budian back to the Four Seas Inn's residence. Within the Heavenly Forging City, countless people knew that he lived there, so it was not difficult for the old fatty to find him.
In the next few days, other than making a trip to the Starsea Restaurant, Tang Huan never left his house.
The assassination attempt near the residence and the powerful Spear Intent activated by the old fatty had spread like wildfire within the Heavenly Forging City, and had become the topic of conversation for many Martial Warriors s for the next few days.
Tang Huan did not go to the Divine Weapon Pavilion to ask if the archer who was suspected to be Dugu Yan had been caught, nor did he pay attention to how the Divine Weapon Pavilion would deal with the aftermath. According to Tang Huan's feeling, after Dugu Yan played a trick on him, the hope of the Divine Weapon Pavilion catching him was already rather slim.
Most importantly, even if the Divine Weapon Pavilion caught Dugu Yan, there was nothing they could do.
If he didn't capture Dugu Yan on the spot in that garden, he wouldn't be able to prove that he was the archer who participated in the assassination. He probably wouldn't be stupid enough to leave traces on the bow and arrow.
Of course, to Tang Huan, it didn't matter if Dugu Yan was caught or not. Now that he had escaped, Tang Huan would use his own methods to make him pay the price in the future.
Right now, what Tang Huan wanted to know the most was the old fatty's condition. Had he been found by Shan Lan? When would he find this courtyard? If the origins of his parents and his own background were not solved, Tang Huan's heart would always feel like it was being scratched by a cat.
Another day passed, and the night gradually darkened.
Inside the room, Xiao Budian, who had just finished eating a large pile of gems, was sleeping soundly with his round stomach. The little girl, on the other hand, was absorbing the power of the Spiritual Fire day and night.
In another room next door.
Tang Huan heaved a long sigh of relief. Amidst the intense ringing sounds, on the Dragon and Phoenix Spears, all sorts of dazzling lights exploded out, intertwining with each other, dazzling the eyes. The second spirit channel where the spear head and the spear body met had also been filled with solidified golden gem solution.
