Qingdi City in the middle of the night was dark and peaceful. Except for some places that operate at night, other buildings were silent in the night.
On the street with few pedestrians, except for the night wind that blows from time to time, there is no other movement. No one noticed a black shadow moving quietly in the night.
The reason why Old Ying is called Old Ying is because he has the ability to move in the shadows. He is good at hiding his aura, as long as he is in the shadows, almost no one can detect him. With this ability, he has served as Chi Xuan’s protector and has killed countless people for Chi Xuan.
He never asked about Chi Xuan’s arrangements.
Whatever Chi Xuan asked him to do, he would do.
Although his strength was much stronger than Chi Xuan’s, Chi Xuan’s cruel personality made him dare not go against Chi Xuan’s decision.
He understood that sooner or later, Chi Xuan would be the master of the Jiuyou Sacred Land, and, at that time, he would be able to ascend to the sky after he had done a great job in protecting his path toward the dao, and become a powerful and respected elder of Jiuyou Sacred Land.
But if he dared to go against any of Chi Xuan’s decisions, he had no doubt that Chi Xuan would find a way to wipe him out without blinking an eye, leaving him with no chance of reincarnation.
This evening, Chi Xuan gave him another order to assassinate Lin Xiaoran’s fiancé, Feng Shao. He has taken this kind of order many times before, and the order he received today should be the same as usual.
Maybe…For some reason, Elder Ying suddenly felt a little heart palpitations, which he had never felt before when he acted.
As a cultivator, the higher the realm, the higher the sensitivity to danger.
He didn’t dare to underestimate the feeling of danger and looked around vigilantly.
But no matter how he probed, he still couldn’t find the source of his palpitations.
Standing in the shadows, Old Ying pondered for a moment, then suddenly said, “Friend, please show up!”
After a moment of silence, a voice came faintly, “Are you sure you want me to show up?”
Hearing this, Old Ying couldn’t help frowning.
As he expected, someone was indeed watching him.
However, when he wanted to identify the other party through the direction of the sound, he found that the other party’s voice was ethereal and vague, and it was impossible to detect the specific direction it came from at all.
Old Ying knew that he had encountered a strong enemy. Reason told him that retreating this time was the best choice. But when he remembered Chi Xuan’s methods, he decided to take a gamble.
So he said indifferently, “Your Excellency, please show yourself! Playing tricks is not in line with your status.”
A faint sigh came, “If you let me show up, then the matter will not be easily resolved.”
Ying Lao sneered, “If you don’t even dare to show up to see it, then please go away immediately! Jiuyou Sacred Land is not something you can afford to mess with!”
After a moment of silence, a sneer came, “Oh? Then I have to see if that’s true.”
This time, the opponent didn’t hide his own position, and Old Ying locked on the opponent’s position in an instant. He didn’t even think about it, he shook his hands repeatedly, and a series of shadow blades came out of his hands, shooting towards the direction of the sound.
This is one of his special skills.
Countless people have died under his special skills, and many of them are stronger than him.
However, to his surprise, after throwing those shadow blades out, there was no effect at all.
He didn’t smell the scent of blood, nor heard the cry of pain.
He quickly fixed his eyes in the direction of the other party and saw a graceful woman walking quietly.
He couldn’t see the opponent’s appearance clearly for a while, but the two bright lights, one long and one short, held by the opponent’s hands made him unable to help but shrink his pupils.
After a while, the woman came out from the shadows. Old Ying looked at the other party and said in a difficult tone: “It turned out to be you, Fairy Lengyue!”
Leng Lingyue, the Lengyue Fairy, was once known as “Sword Emperor Lengyue.” Her illustrious reputation was completely earned. And one of her most famous features is the Lengyue double swords in her hands.
The long sword in the right hand is called Wangyue; the short sword in the left hand is called Shuoyue.
Leng Lingyue stopped, looked at the old man in front of her who almost hid his whole body in the darkness, and said indifferently, “I have come out. Now please let me see how difficult it is to mess with Jiuyou Sacred Land!”
Old Ying was silent for a long while before he quietly asked, “If I retreat now, can you pretend that nothing happened?”
Leng Lingyue shook her head and said: “I have already warned you that if I show up, then some things cannot be easily resolved.”
Old Ying felt bitter in his heart.
Although he is confident in his own strength, he has no confidence at all when facing Leng Lingyue. Chi Xuan looked down on and mocked Leng Lingyue earlier because he was ignorant and fearless. But he knows the true ability of this Leng Lingyue.
This is a ruthless character who can face the head of Tianxin Sect head-on just when she has just debuted!
