Chapter 348 Assassination. Forced Killing (2)

On the north side of this suburban plain where crowds gather, there are large pine forests that are constantly rising and falling. Even at the turn of winter and spring, the pine trees in the forest are still very lush, which makes millions outside unaware that some people had already hidden there.

Perhaps someone had suggested checking around before, in case of any change, but obviously Mu Kun, as the lord of Chuxiong's city, did not follow this suggestion, and the assassin hiding in the forest was naturally ignored by everyone.

Now, as the crowd was completely distracted due to the struggle for spring mud, many important figures were even scattered due to the sudden assassination, the real killing move in the forest finally appeared.

Five sharp arrows flew over two hundred steps like lightning under the urging of the crossbow and rushed towards Xiao Ding, who had just breathed a sigh of relief. But this was just the beginning. The real assassin actually rushed towards the horse at the same time, and the speed was three points faster than the arrow. The knife in his hand flashed a dazzling cold light under the sunlight. The determined murderous aura, as if it had substance, immediately suppressed the many guards blocking his way forward.

It seemed that the one who rushed over was not a man, but an iron-armored cavalry, who could crush everything blocked in front of him into dust! Only a few people mustered up the courage to stop him, but the body was penetrated by a few powerful arrows that he flew to one step ahead, and he fell down screaming.

It turned out that these sharp arrows that flew out at the same time were just clearing the way for him, not targeting Xiao Ding in the crowd. This result made the guards who had just rushed to two steps and blocked his marquis tightly, and as soon as the movements were slow, the assassin had already rushed to the entire team, which made the guards who were other officials hurriedly escape to the side, allowing him to break through the defense even more smoothly and penetrate into Xiao Ding.

All this came too quickly. Not to mention the others, even the guards in front of Xiao Ding were still a little panicked. But they were still yelling in anger, waving their weapons to surround the assassin who was attacking from the front. Dozens of weapons were handed out at the same time at this moment, slashing at the assassin and the horse under his crotch from all angles and directions, swearing to keep them.

But just as all the weapons were about to touch his body, the assassin suddenly let out another long roar. The man suddenly left the horse's back. He jumped high and suddenly flew over the top of the sword and gun attack. His goal did not change. With the inertia behind the horse, he pressed Xiao Ding directly in a condescending state. The blade had already shone with a sharp light, slashing down like a horse, with a determined aura of slashing Xiao Ding in half.

"The sword energy is condensed for thousands of years, life and death are in one breath!" Accompanied by this long chant that looks like a song but not a song, the sword light has condensed a light that is brighter than the sun above. The momentum is so powerful that it can really take away the aura of heaven and earth. Even though many guards around Xiao Ding are still providing the final cover, even if he is a master with great martial arts skills, there is nowhere to hide within the scope covered by this sword, and now he has not even been unsheathed in his hand. How can he resist it?

Li Ling and his wife were even more intimidated by the momentum that could break the world by this sword. For a moment, they were completely stagnant like many people present. This assassin was too powerful and too unexpected. This was not an assassin. It was clearly a powerful general who took the general's head among million troops!

After Li Ling saw clearly the appearance of the person coming, a huge voice echoed in his heart: "Shao Qiuxi, it is Shao Qiuxi! He is so powerful that he can even see millions of people without anything, and wants to kill Dingxi Hou in such a posture!"

Yes, Shao Qiuxi!

This "assin" who suddenly rushed over was the Luotian Sect and Shao Qiuxi who had had a contact with Li Ling but did not have an in-depth understanding. This not only can get the answer from the song he hid his tail, but also the appearance is not much different from when he met in Hengzhou Prefecture that day. The only difference is that there is a completely different change in spirit. Shao Qiuxi was extremely low-key and introverted at that time, and now he was full of momentum, and he was really more dazzling than the sun, making people dare not look at his appearance and movements.

Swish—!

The sword light flashed for the first time, and the three guards who were guarding Xiao Ding desperately suffocated at the same time. Then blood in front of his chest shot out like a fountain, his body quickly faded and fell down on his back. However, Shao Qiuxi, who was still in the air, did not even pause, and the knife in his hand swung out again. This time, the light had rushed towards Xiao Ding and enveloped all the retreat around him, allowing him to have no room for maneuver except for making a move to fight hard.

Li Ling was completely stunned by just these two swords. This had broken his understanding of the world's masters. He originally thought that Mu Dantian, whom he saw on Taiping Duke that day, was already the only master in the world. Until this moment, he realized that he was a frog in the well. Shao Qiuxi's martial arts at this moment were much stronger than Mu Dantian, and in terms of murderous aura, he was several times that of the Cao Gang master.

The other three people around him had a look of shock on their faces at this moment than him. As a martial arts practitioner, as a few people who thought they were considered masters, when they saw Shao Qiuxi's magical and fierce and domineering sword moves, the impact was much stronger than that of Li Ling, a weak scholar. It was a fact that completely subverted their views. They completely forgot to rescue at this moment, just staring at the front, hoping that the assassin could use a few more swords to make people see the exquisiteness and domineeringness contained in his sword.

There is nowhere to retreat and no land to flash. All Xiao Ding can do is to parry. Since the sword cannot be sheathed, he will not come out. At the moment when the sword light came, he raised the sheathed sword and was just right in front of the sword light. This hand alone is enough to show that Dingxi Hou is indeed stronger in martial arts than many people. Other guards cannot even react under Shao Qiuxi's attack, but he can see the sword power and thus resist.

However, this was not enough to get him out of the danger he was at hand. As the two weapons collided in the air, a burst of protrusion was heard, and the scabbard of the knife in his hand had broken first, and then the blade body, the steel knife made of hundreds of tricks, also shattered and broken in the blink of an eye.

Perhaps in terms of reaction, Xiao Ding was enough to deal with the sword that Shao Qiuxi had full strength, but in terms of his own cultivation, especially his grasp of the sword force, he was very different from Shao Qiuxi.

His knife was broken, and the last line of defense had been broken. The guards around him, except for the three who had just fallen, were as if they had been cast in a fixed spell at this moment. They just opened their mouths and wanted to call, but they were unable to respond in their movements. Not to mention standing up to save the master, they could not even be able to do such a simple action as raising a weapon.

However, Shao Qiuxi's sword was beaten a little, and it accelerated again, slashed straight down, and then took Xiao Ding's neck, swearing to kill him with one knife!

Huh—! The knife slashed down, as if it had cut the entire space, and there was no one else. Any item could block his move, block his move to kill Xiao Ding—No!

Just as everything was about to end and Xiao Ding was about to be awarded the title, behind him, a guard who had been watching as if he was no different from an ordinary guard, and was also intimidated by Shao Qiuxi's murderous aura. The guard who had completely left his body suddenly moved.

While stroking forward, a black light from his hand was already whistling and piercing out, brushing through Xiao Ding's neck, hitting hard on the fast-slashing sword light at a perfect angle, causing the already empty sword to suddenly stagnate, and then exposed the complete blade body.

Shao Qiuxi's eyes also stared at the black light that also appeared in the true body because of this collision. It was a short halberd that was black all over. His eyes suddenly shrank as the short halberd appeared, and two words were sniffed out in his mouth: "Xiao Gan!"

This guard who was dressed as a personal guard, who had been silent and panicked, was Xiao Gan, who had met Shao Qiuxi on the same day and finally let him go. The biggest difference from that day was that the wooden box he held in his hand had now been replaced by an inconspicuous short halberd!

Although the short halberd was inconspicuous, its speed and offensive were extremely rapid. Just as Shao Qiuxi pointed out his identity, Xiao Gan turned his hand and flipped the short halberd, suppressed the steel knife and flashed aside, and then turned it into a defensive attack. The tip of the front spear pierced the opponent's chest like lightning.

This experienced counterattack immediately killed Shao Qiuxi's pace of landing, and then he rose again, without any pause, and twisted his body and rushed to the side.

If he missed a single blow, he actually retreated!

After the fierce attacks and the determination to win were used, but failed to kill Xiao Ding, the few masters in the Luotian Sect chose to escape. This shocked everyone again, and finally came back to their senses with Xiao Gan's slap: "Stop him!"

The guards did not react until then, roared, raised their weapons one by one, and stabbed them at him. But Shao Qiuxi's body movement was no longer much slower than the sword in his hand, and his pace of moving was extremely strange. He jumped out of the siege of these people and ran straight to the side like a swimming fish.

When the last person in front of him wanted to make an obstacle, the knife in his hand flashed again, causing the man to howl and fly up, then he hit the ground with blood, and no longer responded. With just this move, he scared the guards around him who wanted to obstruct him and let him escape from the siege calmly.

But Xiao Gan behind him did not follow him, because he had a more important task, which was to protect Xiao Ding's vitality. Without this master of the same height as Shao Qiuxi, he would not be able to keep him even if there were many soldiers around him.

No, just as everyone could only watch Shao Qiuxi break through the siege and was about to leave, the three of them had already grabbed him and blocked his way.
