Regardless of whether they cooperated or not, the most important thing was to successfully facilitate the final assassination. However, from the perspective of the King of Qin, even if the other party did not have enough "sincerity," he might not cancel the meeting.
However, the more a trap was set, the more it had to be arranged flawlessly and logically, without leaving the slightest bit of disharmony.
What was interesting about this was that both sides were working together, but they had to make each other fall into the trap step by step, and Lin Yi, who was in the middle, had unknowingly become the key to all of this.
"What do you guys want to do?" Lin Yi raised a brow. I'll say the ugly words first, but if you want me to personally help you catch him, then don't open your mouth. "
"There's no need for that. "
Dong que quickly said,"in fact, we have already sent an assassination team. But after all, Xianyang is an important place of the military country. The patrol team is everywhere. Once they act without permission, it will easily cause trouble. Moreover, you are a popular person in front of the King of Qin. If you come out and cover for us, the trouble will be much smaller."
Lin Yi thought for a moment before finally nodding.
Dong que immediately brought Lin Yi to a secret stronghold in Xianyang City. It was quite a big stronghold. Now that the Qin State was about to swallow the whole world, it was not strange for the Yan state to have a stronghold in the city, and it was likely that they had more than one.
However, Lin Yi was locked on by a killing intent the moment he stepped in.
"Could it be a trap? The so-called Fan Yuqi's betrayal was just a cover, and the other party's purpose was just to trick him in and kill him? But what are these people from the Yan Kingdom after?"
A series of thoughts flashed through his mind, but Lin Yi's body moved on instinct. At his level, normal sneak attacks were useless. He wasn't as strong as the King of the Dead, but he wasn't far from it.
A terrifying, pitch-black blade light streaked across the air towards Lin Yi, who had transformed into a Titan Buddha in an instant. However, Lin Yi loosened his grip and caught the blade with his bare hand, blocking the black blade light with one palm.
But before he could relax, the blade light that had been suppressed suddenly bloomed again, and this time it was directly drawn out from Lin Yi's body.
So strong!
Lin Yi was a little surprised-so the disappearance of the blade light was just a smokescreen! The real danger was when the blade light broke into pieces and entered his body!
All the defenses were only for the outside. Even at Lin Yi's level, it was almost impossible to defend against the reverse attack from the inside. In an instant, the Titan Buddha was submerged in the black blade light and turned into a ball of powder.
"Are you crazy?"
Dong que was completely dumbfounded. The heavens pitied him-he really did ask Lin Yi for help, and Fan Yu Qi had indeed defected to Xianyang. Who would've thought that a lunatic from his family would attack Lin Yi without permission, and even kill him with a single blade?
It was F * cking ridiculous!
However, the attacker didn't care about him at all. His figure flashed and appeared 100 meters away. He slashed at the void again, and the whole world darkened for a moment.
Then, the space shattered like a mirror, revealing a real world and an undamaged Lin Yi.
Lin Yi's heart was in a state of shock as he looked at the black-robed figure from afar.
It wasn't like there weren't any Masters who could see through the mirror's illusions-as far as Lin Yi knew, it wasn't just the professional illusion Masters, Banshi Luo, Xiang Yusheng, and the others could do it as well. But this guy just used a knife to break through it-it completely overturned Lin Yi's understanding.
Lin Yi didn't even have time to react as the enemy appeared above his head in the next second. The black blade light that made his scalp numb came down again!
Lin Yi wanted to use the impermanent steps to avoid it, but he decided to take it head on instead.
The golden light and the saber radiance collided. After a moment of stalemate, they were still no match for each other and quickly dimmed. However, a surprised cry came from the opposite side.
Under the flow of the power of time, the golden light immediately became strong again and covered the saber ray. Under the pressure of the darkness that covered the sky, it forcibly created a sky.
"It's alright, not too weak,"
Lin Yi felt as if he had been struck by lightning when his opponent suddenly stopped attacking. He couldn't believe what he was seeing.
Seeing this, Dong que quickly came over and said with an apologetic face,""I'm really sorry, this one of us is a martial arts fanatic. Seeing that you are a rare master, he was tempted to test you. This is all his personal whim, it has nothing to do with us, please don't take it to heart. "
He'd really be crying if Lin Yi flipped out on the spot.
The key point was that he knew that he was no match for the black-robed madman. If he were to make him unhappy and the other party backhanded him with a knife, this day next year would be his death anniversary.
Lin Yi came back to his senses and suppressed his emotions, "It's nothing. I've done this kind of thing a lot, so I can understand."
"That's good, that's good. "
Dong que heaved a sigh of relief. Afraid of causing more trouble, he quickly went to the main topic,""Let's not waste any time. Let's get started. According to the tip-off, Fan Yuqi is now hiding in the slums of the city. People come and go there, and it's difficult for outsiders to find him as long as he disguises himself. But the good news is that there aren't many patrols in and out, which is convenient for us to take action."
Lin Yi understood-the guy had obviously made all sorts of preparations, and was only looking for him to buy an extra insurance.
The group of people immediately began to move.
Although there weren't many people participating-less than ten people including Lin Yi-they were all elites handpicked from all over the Assassin's baptism. Other than a freak like Lin Yi, they were all at least big shots at the peak of the late stage of the complete realm. Once they worked together, the pressure was enough to make anyone's heart jump.
The area of the slum in Xianyang was not small, but it was not big for a group of magnates at the consummate level.
The cultivator who played Fan Yu Qi was obviously an expert in concealment. Although he wasn't as unfathomable as ye Zhi Wei, he couldn't be easily discovered when he was hidden in a crowd. Even the usual spiritual awareness search was useless.
The man's aura was no different from a normal person 's-even Lin Yi wouldn't be able to tell the difference, let alone a normal practitioner.
But with the experience of dealing with ye Zhiwei, Lin Yi wasn't completely helpless against a target like this. He was just here to clean up after someone else, after all, and there was no need for him to be so enthusiastic.
The only person Lin Yi cared about right now was the mysterious man in the black robe.
The person didn't make any eye contact or talk to Lin Yi at all, and the black robe had the effect of blocking divine sense, making it impossible for people to see the person's true face, even if it was a man or a woman.
