PS: Thank you, Alliance Leader Han Jiang Ye, for the reward of a hundred thousand.
The two of them wanted to scare the assassin away.
Whether it was the enemy of the Imperial Residence or the Public House, they did not want to go against this assassin. With the current situation, if the two of them were to make even the slightest mistake, Prince An might take the opportunity to kill them and frame the assassin.
However, the two of them could not shout, so they could only scare the assassin with their appearance.
The assassin was only an Innate Master, once he faced two Grandmasters, he had no chance of winning, so he would not come out.
"Chi!" a soft sound was heard, and the two's eyes lit up.
A black sword suddenly shot out from the ground, and pierced a Protector's throat.
Following that, a black shadow shot out from the ground like a wisp of smoke. It took over the black sword that was stuck in the guard's throat and flashed past the other two guards at an incredible speed. The tip of the black sword swept past their throats.
The three Protectors clutched their throats and fell to the ground at the same time, it showed how fast the sword was.
"How dare you!" Lu Donglou shouted, and waved his palm.
Zhao Qingshan scoffed, "Who are you!"
"Don't let him go!" Meng Zhi rushed over like a galloping horse, and shouted.
He tailed Zhao Qingshan and Lu Donglou in the dark to see if the two of them were colluding with each other and cooperating with the assassin. If they were not colluding with each other, it would not be possible for them to have so many guards silently.
Once they colluded with the assassin, His Highness would have an excuse to kill.
"Hoo …" Zhao Qingshan's palm energy was like a raging wave hitting the shore, and hit the man in black.
The slender figure of the man in black flashed, and he was unusually agile. He hid behind a tree, then flashed again, and appeared behind another tree. He was fast and agile, the three of them could not surround him, and could only chase behind him.
Zhao Qingshan chased and shouted, "Commander Meng, could it be a diversion?"
"Even if it is, we must kill this guy first!" Meng Zhi was determined. They chased relentlessly.
The man in black's Light-body Technique was very powerful, the three of them chased for more than ten miles in one breath, and only then did they surround the man in black.
Zhao Qingshan and Lu Donglou were helpless. They had reached this point. They could not possibly kill Meng Zhi.
Moreover, they did not know the background of this assassin. Who knew if this was Prince An's trick. Based on Prince An's gloomy temperament, he would sacrifice a few Innate Masters in order to deal with the two Grandmasters. He could definitely do it.
"Attack!" Meng Zhi shouted and struck out with his fist first.
He was afraid of the other party's powerful swordsmanship, and with the three of them attacking together, it was better to be safe than sorry. There was no need to take the risk of getting close.
Grandmasters were also made of flesh and blood. When they were hit by a sword, their Vital Energy Barrier would block it for a while, but it would not be able to block it completely. However, blocking it would give them an opportunity to dodge, so it was very difficult for Grandmasters to kill them.
But it was difficult to kill. There were risks too, and he would avoid them if he could. At Meng Zhi's position, he cherished his life the most.
Zhao Qingshan and Lu Donglou followed up with their punches and palms. The power of their palms and fists enveloped the black-robed swordsman like a gale.
The swordsman in black slid his feet and suddenly appeared in front of Meng Zhi. The black sword flashed and stabbed right in front of Meng Zhi's throat.
Meng Zhi's throat was blocked by inner energy, as if there was an invisible air shield.
He quickly tilted his head to avoid it and broke out in a cold sweat. Instinctively, he struck out with his palm.
"Bang!" The black-robed swordsman's chest was hit and he flew out.
He flew high and far, using the power of this palm to perform his Light-body Technique. He disappeared in front of everyone's eyes at an extremely fast speed. He entered the forest.
"Chase!" Meng Zhi scoffed angrily and stared at Zhao Qingshan and Lu Donglou, "Could it be your people?"
Zhao Qingshan and Lu Donglou quickly shook their heads.
Meng Zhi's feet fluttered and he scoffed coldly, "I think the two of you are just doing it half-heartedly. Three Grandmasters can't even take down an Innate Master, how shameless!"
"Sigh …" Zhao Qingshan shook his head, "This fella's body technique is strange and his swordsmanship is outstanding. He really can't be seen as an Innate Master. "
"He is an Innate Master!" Meng Zhi scoffed coldly, "If we really can't take him down, I will ask for punishment from the Royal Highness. You guys won't be able to escape either!"
Both of their faces changed slightly.
His move was ruthless enough. Once he asked for punishment, Prince An would agree to it. Both of them would be guilty too. Then the punishment would be up to Prince An. Even if they didn't die, they would at least be skinned.
"Chase!" When the two of them thought about that, they could only put in more effort. They secretly sighed at the people from the Imperial Residence's scheming and plotting against others. Their methods of scheming were indeed impressive. If Chief Chu entered the Imperial Residence, it would not be good!
Although the black-robed swordsman's body technique was fast, he was injured. He might be fast for a while but he couldn't last long. Soon, the three of them caught up to him.
Seeing that they were going to be surrounded again, this time, Zhao Qingshan and Lu Donglou couldn't hold back anymore. They had to make him stay.
Suddenly, a white shadow fluttered past the three of them and went to the black-robed swordsman's side. She put her hand on his shoulder and fluttered away. Only a sweet and cold laughter was left in the air, "Three Grandmasters can't do anything to an Innate Master. The Imperial Residence of Prince An and the Yi Public House are really a family. You're all idiots!"
"Lu Yurong!" Meng Zhi had a good memory. Once he heard the voice, he immediately knew who the white shadow was. He shouted, "Lady Lu, my Royal Highness won't let this go!"
"I won't let this go either!" Lu Yurong's ethereal voice sounded like it came from the sky. In the end, it couldn't be heard anymore. It was obvious that she went far away.
The three of them stopped.
Meng Zhi turned his head and sneered, "It's the High Duke's Public House's doing, isn't it?"
Zhao Qingshan scoffed, "Commander Meng, how can you say that! The Ren Public House and the High Duke's Public House are mortal enemies. Commander Meng, are you saying that we're in cahoots? "
"What about the last time!" Meng Zhi scoffed, "Didn't she come out to help the High Duke's Public House?"
"Commander Meng, you're a smart person. How can you be so muddle-headed? Did she really want to help the Public House?" Zhao Qingshan said impatiently, "She wanted to take advantage of us but Chief Chu saw through her. She had no choice but to help. Her purpose was not to help but to frame us. She wanted to make you think that we're in cahoots. Can't Commander Meng see through such a small scheme?"
Lu Donglou sneered, "I think it's not that Commander Meng can't see through it. She's just making a fuss!"
Meng Zhi scoffed, "In short, this matter is definitely related to the High Duke's Public House!"
He had made up his mind to drag this matter to the Yi Public House. If not, he would be guilty of dereliction of duty. Once the Yi Public House was involved, the Royal Highness would only hate the High Duke's Public House out of anger and not him.
"Then we'll have to go to the Royal Highness and make things clear!" Zhao Qingshan said, "Commander Meng is really unscrupulous in order to avoid the crime of dereliction of duty!"
"Shut up!" Meng Zhi scoffed and turned to leave.

Chu Li and Siao Shi sat in a gazebo. Lu Yurong glided over and threw the swordsman in black into the gazebo. She said lightly, "Chu Li, you owe me another life. Remember to pay me back!"
Chu Li closed fist saluted, "Thank you, Lady Lu!"
Lu Yurong scoffed, "If I'm in danger, or Big Brother is in danger, you have to save them!"
She had already found out that Chu Li had the ability to resurrect the dead and could perform the Eclipse Purloin Technique.
Chu Li smiled, "I'll try my best."
Lu Yurong glanced at Siao Shi and glided away.
Siao Shi frowned, "How are you going to ask for her help?"
Chu Li said, "It's not convenient for me to do it myself. I don't want to give Prince An a chance to cause trouble. … Fourth Young Master."
