If ordinary soldiers were to welcome them, they might be ambushed. Chu Xuan didn't believe that the experts from the Skyfire Sect would have the guts to do so!
Two days passed in the blink of an eye. Nothing happened on the four-hundred-kilometer journey.
In the evening, Qin Yang and the others entered a small city and directly booked a relatively large inn in the small city.
"Brother Gai Yan, once this is done, you have to give me what you promised me!"
In the barren mountains outside the town, a black-robed elder said in a deep voice.
"Don't worry. If I don't fulfill my promise, won't you report our Skyfire Sect?"
Gai Yan said in a deep voice. His voice had changed.
Moreover, Gai Yan was using a special mask. His appearance was also different from before.
"Hehe, of course!"
The black-robed elder laughed strangely.
Gai Yan said, "Tang Jiu, once this is done, you will definitely be rewarded. But if you still want to use this to blackmail our Skyfire Sect, think about the consequences! Our Skyfire Sect wouldn't dare to do such a thing. Our Skyfire Sect has a benefactor behind us that you can't afford to offend! "
"I understand. How can I speak carelessly? If I do, won't I be in trouble too?"
The black-robed elder said.
Gai Yan nodded. "It's good that you know. Although you don't have anything to worry about, if many experts hunt you down in the future, you won't have a good time either!"
"Alright, alright. We know the rules. When are we going to act?"
Gai Yan's eyes flashed coldly. "It's still early. Let's act in the middle of the night!"
"Leave none alive!"
The black-robed elder swallowed his saliva. Leaving none of the dozens of Imperial Knights alive would be more serious than killing Chu Xuan. However, if they didn't kill them, it would be difficult to kill Chu Xuan.
"Brother Gai Yan, your Skyfire Sect is going all out this time."
Gai Yan said indifferently, "When the Ice Palace grows, our Skyfire Sect will be in big trouble. Moreover, this is a request from a benefactor. How can we refuse?"
Time continued to pass, and it was gradually late at night.
The town wasn't bustling. There weren't many lights and there was no moonlight tonight. It was pitch-black!
"Let's go!"
Gai Yan and the others set off. The darkness of the night did not hinder them at all. A Level 5 expert had divine sense, and a Level 6 expert's divine sense could reach further. Furthermore, a Level 6 expert could see in the dark!
Silently, Gai Yan and the others entered the inn where Qin Yang and the others were staying.
Most of the dozens of knights had fallen asleep. It was quite tiring for them to travel during the day.
As imperial guards, they didn't think that anyone would attack them!
Qin Yang opened his eyes.
He felt a murderous aura.
Qin Yang had the strength of a peak mid-stage class 6, and how many battles had he experienced?
Gai Yan and the rest had concealed their strength well. However, between the two of them, one was an early-stage Class 6 while the other was a mid-stage Class 6. Qin Yang was slightly stronger than them!
To Qin Yang, the killing intent emanating from their bodies was very obvious.
"Palace Lord, the assassins are here!"
Qin Yang transmitted his voice to Chu Xuan. Chu Xuan was already asleep, but she immediately woke up when she received Qin Yang's message.
She used her energy to sense and immediately discovered the two Level 6 experts who had entered the inn. One was an early-stage Class 6 while the other was a mid-stage Class 6.
When she wasn't poisoned, Chu Xuan had no problem dealing with these two experts. However, if she used her energy now, her body's condition would deteriorate quickly, and her strength would decline rapidly!
"Mister Qin, can you deal with them?"
Chu Xuan transmitted her voice with uncertainty. Two Level 6 experts were very strong.
"The early-stage Class 6 one should be Gai Yan. Now is not the time to fall out with the Skyfire Sect. I will use my domain to trap the other one. You shout that there's an enemy attack!"
"At the same time, release the aura of a late-stage Class 6!"
Qin Yang transmitted his voice.
It was not a problem for Chu Xuan to release her aura without attacking.
"Alright!"
Chu Xuan transmitted her agreement.
Tang Jiu quickly found Chu Xuan's room while Gai Yan was elsewhere. He was ready to kill the knights at any time.
If Gai Yan was a Level 6 expert, he could kill more than half of the knights in their sleep if he suddenly attacked while they were asleep!
"Now is the time!"
With a thought, Qin Yang expanded his domain and shrouded Tang Jiu. At the same time, Chu Xuan released the aura of a late-stage Class 6. The terrifying aura spread in all directions.
"Enemy attack!"
Chu Xuan shouted. Her voice exploded in the minds of dozens of knights like thunder. Not only that, but her voice also spread to other parts of the small town!
The dozens of knights were instantly awakened!
They were at least Class 3. The moment they were awakened, they all pulled out their weapons and raised their vigilance.
"The other one escaped. Don't let this one escape too!"
Chu Xuan rushed out of the room and pounced on Gai Yan. The dozens of guards also noticed Gai Yan. Gai Yan's expression changed drastically. He did not expect Chu Xuan to be so vigilant.
And Tang Jiu ran so fast!
When Chu Xuan came out, Tang Jiu did not follow. Gai Yan naturally thought that Tang Jiu had escaped. Tang Jiu might have realized that Chu Xuan still had the strength of a late-stage Class 6 and felt that something was wrong!
Gai Yan and the others judged that Chu Xuan's strength had fallen to mid-stage Class 6. There was even a possibility that Chu Xuan had fallen to early-stage Class 6!
"Run!"
A lot of information flashed through his mind in the blink of an eye. Since Tang Jiu had run away, how could he possibly defeat Chu Xuan and the dozens of Imperial Guards by himself?
Gai Yan used all his strength to escape at full speed!
"Don't chase. Let him escape. I can't fight for a long time in my current condition!"
Chu Xuan stopped the guards who were about to chase after Tang Jiu.
In the room, Tang Jiu struggled desperately to escape from Qin Yang's domain. But it was easier said than done.
Tang Jiu was only an ordinary mid-stage Class 6. Qin Yang was a peak mid-stage Class 6!
Qin Yang did not attack Tang Jiu. He only used his domain to prevent him from escaping.
"Everyone, please strengthen the protection!"
Outside the room, Chu Xuan spoke. The dozens of guards quickly nodded. They were grateful to Chu Xuan. If not for her reminder, they might have died here today.
They had made up their minds not to sleep tonight!
Creak!
Chu Xuan entered the room and closed the door. She quickly entered Qin Yang's domain.
Tang Jiu immediately saw Chu Xuan. He could clearly feel the late-stage Class 6 aura from Chu Xuan.
Qin Yang said calmly, "Do you think you can escape? I'm a peak mid-stage Class 6. Although the palace master was poisoned, he still has the strength of a late-stage Class 6! "
"Shout! There are dozens of guards coming in from outside!"
"Sir, if the guards and His Majesty find out about your actions, there's a high chance that your entire family will be executed!"
Charging and even trying to kill the guards and the target they were protecting was a great provocation to the imperial power!
Tang Jiu's face was gloomy. He was not completely free. He had a woman and children in secret. It was just that very few people knew about this.
Gai Yan did not know.
The Heavenly Fire Sect disagreed.
However, if the Silvermoon Kingdom's officials investigated, they would definitely find out.
Chu Xuan said calmly, "Sir, surrender. Mr. Qin does not want to expose his strength. That's why he did not call the guards in. Even if the guards don't attack, you won't be able to escape!"
Tang Jiu gritted his teeth and threw away the weapon in his hand.
Letting Qin Yang and the rest kill him was better than letting the guards know about the situation. It would be better if his entire family was executed!
"Seal!"
Tang Jiu gave up resisting. Qin Yang's domain power quickly entered his body and sealed his cultivation.
"Space ring."
Qin Yang said.
Tang Jiu reluctantly covered the space ring on his finger. He had many good things in it. After all, he was a mid-stage Class 6 expert.
It was painful to give it away just like that.
Qin Yang said, "Sir, if you give it to me, you might have a chance to live!"
Tang Jiu's eyes flashed. "You'll spare my life?"
Qin Yang nodded slightly. "You're a mid-stage Class 6 after all. There's some value in taking you in as a subordinate. Of course, it depends on whether you're willing to cooperate or not!"
"Plop!"
Tang Jiu knelt on the ground. He took off his space ring and threw it to Qin Yang.
"I'm willing to serve you, sir!"
Tang Jiu knelt to Qin Yang, not Chu Xuan. He knew that Qin Yang's current strength might not be as good as Chu Xuan's, but how long had Qin Yang been Ye Xing 'er's guardian spirit?
Now that he was a mid-stage Class 6, he would definitely surpass Chu Xuan in the future.
The Ice Palace did not accept men!
"Open the space ring."
Qin Yang ordered.
Tang Jiu immediately opened the space ring. Qin Yang transferred everything inside to the Primordial Fortune Pagoda.
Qin Yang returned the space ring to Tang Jiu.
Tang Jiu was relieved. Qin Yang had given him the space ring. This meant that he might not kill him.
"Who's the other one?"
Qin Yang asked.
Tang Jiu replied without hesitation, "Sir, it's Gai Yan."
"Mm."
Qin Yang nodded slightly. His expression did not change at all. He already knew that the other one was Gai Yan. He purposely asked to see if Tang Jiu would lie to them.
"Why did the Heavenly Fire Sect attack us? How dare they!"
Qin Yang said calmly.
Chu Xuan's heart tightened.
Tang Jiu shook his head. "Sir, I don't know the details. Gai Yan only said that there was a noble involved. The Heavenly Fire Sect could not afford to offend that noble!"
Chu Xuan's face turned pale. A noble who could make the Heavenly Fire Sect attack without any hesitation must have a high status.
Combined with other information, there was a 99% chance that this noble was Imperial Consort Dai.
"Mister Qin, I've lost."
Chu Xuan said dejectedly.
She had already lost when Tang Jiu and the other two assassins arrived!
