Chapter 143 Preparations for Assassination
"Master!" Nuo Xi called Mo Bai, her voice was trembling, and her watery eyes were shining with tears, like a bright pearl in the dark night.
Mo Bai opened his eyes slightly, and seeing Nuo Xi looking like he was about to cry, it felt a little heartbreaking.
"Shh!" He hissed softly, raising the corners of his mouth slightly, then slowly raised his hand and placed it on his chest. He could touch something as hard as iron.
Nuo Xi glanced at Mo Bai's chest, and she remembered the heart-protecting scale that Si Yuanluoli gave to Mo Bai before. It was this heart-protecting scale that blocked the middle-aged man's blow for Mo Bai.
She was a little strange just now as to why Mo Bai didn't die after being hit, but now she understood.
Seeing that Mo Bai was fine, Nuo Xi was very happy and hugged Mo Bai tightly in her arms, wishing that they would never be separated again, as no one could separate them.
"It hurts!" Mo Bai wailed in Nuo Xi's ear in a low voice.
Hearing Mo Bai's words, Nuo Xi reacted and looked at the blood on the corner of Mo Bai's mouth. Although the heart-protecting scales blocked the middle-aged man's blow for Mo Bai, the powerful force still made Mo Bai unbearable.
Small injury.
"Here, eat it!"
She hurriedly took out a healing pill and gave it to Mo Bai to take. Then she stretched out her hand and slowly touched Mo Bai's pale face, wiping the blood on the corner of his mouth with her thumb.
Seeing Mo Bai's appearance, she felt heartbroken. Although they were not biological siblings, she treated Mo Bai as a younger brother, more than a relative.
If she is still indifferent even if she loses her loved ones, then she can only say sorry, which she can't do!
Mo Bai has lost too many relatives, so why not her!
Mo Bai's spiritual power moved, stimulating the inner elixir in his body. The inner elixir shone with green light, and streams of pure spiritual power nourished his wounds and restored his injuries.
In other parts of the courtyard, there were flames shooting into the sky, and there were sounds of fighting. At the entrance of the courtyard, there were several corpses wearing guard uniforms lying, their bodies covered with blood.
There were no other obvious wounds on their bodies, the only wound was the deep sword mark on their neck.
These people were very experienced killers. These guards were all assassinated in an instant, and even their swords were still in their scabbards and they didn't have time to pull them out.
The surrounding situation quickly attracted Wen Qian's attention. She looked at the surrounding situation and couldn't help but be secretly frightened. These people were really cunning enough. They sent some of them to deal with other students, so that others could protect those students.
Although she was a student, she did not come to support her.
She looked at the four dean elders. At this time, the latter were all staring at the place in Mo Bai's room, but it had become a ruin.
"Hahaha!"
Suddenly a laughter came from the ruins.
When several people looked around, they saw a middle-aged man and four of his men walking out of the ruins. An extremely powerful aura emanated from the bodies of these people.
The middle-aged man put one hand behind his back and stepped out of the ruins, feeling proud of the world in his movements.
The four elders stared at the middle-aged man, their eyes narrowed slightly. The four men behind him only had the fifth level of swordsmanship and were not afraid of him. Their attention was only on the middle-aged man.
Judging from the aura on his body, the middle-aged man's cultivation level has reached the sixth level of swordsmanship. Even if they are all at the sixth level of swordsmanship, they have to pay attention to it.
"Get behind me!" Li Yuan said in a deep voice.
After hearing Li Yuan's words, Wen Qian came to her senses and stood behind Li Yuan. She could not intervene in the duel between the masters of the sixth level of swordsmanship alone.
Moreover, she was injured, not to mention that there were four subordinates beside the middle-aged man.
"Sure enough, hard work pays off. After preparing for so long and putting in so much effort, we finally succeeded."
The middle-aged man chuckled lightly, looked at Mo Bai who was being held by Nuo Xi, and said: "After preparing for so long, this kid is still going to die in my hands, although I don't know how he can withstand my palm.
Yes, but it looks like he won’t live long.”
After hearing this, Nuo Xi turned around and stared at the middle-aged man fiercely, as if he wanted to tear the latter into pieces, and said angrily: "There are seven deans sitting here, you dare to attack him here, aren't you afraid of death?
!?"
Her voice was hoarse, obviously very angry, as if she had touched her taboo.
"Death? What's so scary about death!"
The middle-aged man smiled contemptuously and continued: "If we were afraid of death, we wouldn't have attacked him in the academy. Since we dare to attack him in the academy, it means we have no intention of getting out alive."
After speaking, he looked at Nuo Xi with interest and said, "You little girl, not only do you have good looks, but you also have extraordinary qualifications. You have such accomplishments at such a young age. It's a pity that you were injured by me."
If he hadn't planned to leave alive, he would have really wanted to take Nuo Xi away. If such qualifications were properly cultivated, his future cultivation would definitely be high.
Nuo Xi glared at the middle-aged man fiercely and said in a deep voice: "If I hadn't been eager to save people, you wouldn't have taken the opportunity to hurt me."
Although she was injured by him, fortunately the injury was not serious, just a minor injury. She was fully capable of fighting against the middle-aged man, but now he had to take care of Mo Bai.
"Even if you fight me now, you are still no match for me." The middle-aged man chuckled. He was not afraid at all of Du Nuo Xi who had just broken through and didn't even have a single sword mark.
Nuo Xi gritted his teeth, but did not pay attention to the middle-aged man. The most important thing now was to protect Mo Bai. As for the rest, he left it to a few hospital elders.
Si Qing stood up, stared at the middle-aged man in front of him, and asked: "Who are you? Why do you want to attack Mo Bai? Shengying Academy is supported by the four armies. By doing this, you are openly colliding with the four armies.
Protect the Mansion against you!"
The middle-aged man chuckled lightly. He didn't care at all about what Si Qing said. After all, it was not that he had not considered what the latter said.
"You have no way of knowing our identities. We have only one purpose for this trip, and that is to kill Mo Bai. As for what you said, we are against the four major armies protecting the mansion. Since we are all here, we have no intention of leaving alive.
So what’s there to be afraid of!”
The middle-aged man raised the corner of his mouth, waved his arm, and more than a dozen figures suddenly appeared on the surrounding walls and open space, holding sharp knives and eyes full of killing.
What's more important is that the aura on their bodies has been suppressed, making it difficult for even Wen Qian to detect it. Only a strong person like the dean can sense it.
"Since we are ready to die, we don't mind dragging a few more people along!"
"It's just that before I die, I still want to say a few words."
The middle-aged man slowly took a few steps forward, looked at Nuo Xi, and said, "Don't have too much hope. With this kid's cultivation, no matter how strong his body is, he can't withstand my palm."
.”
"He only has one breath left now. You'd better take this opportunity to say a few words to him! Otherwise, he won't be able to hear you in the future."
"Shut up!" Nuo Xi said angrily.
After being yelled at by Nuo Xi, the middle-aged man smiled softly. This task was the most difficult and challenging one he had ever taken on. Now that it was completed, he felt a great sense of accomplishment.
He sighed with a smile and said: "I have to say that this kid's alertness is extraordinary. Even with just a look, he was almost discovered. Fortunately, we are more cautious in doing things."
"He is protected by a group of guards like you, so if you want to kill him, you have to be at a very close distance. I was originally waiting for this kid to get closer to start the attack, but I didn't expect that he ran away."
"We can't miss such an opportunity."
Having said this, the middle-aged man smiled solemnly. In the room just now, he could be said to be very close to Mo Bai, but there were still Wen Qian and Nuo Xi in between.
Once he was slightly stopped by these two people, with Mo Bai's vigilance, he immediately ran away, plus there were other strong people sitting in, I'm afraid it would be difficult for him to complete this mission.
Then there will be no more gossiping here.
Fortunately, they had made arrangements in advance, and their cooperation was very tacit when something unexpected happened, otherwise they would not be so lucky to hit Mo Bai now.
He didn't have much confidence at first, so in his eyes it was still a bit of luck.
"But if you want to blame, blame your dean! Without his order, we wouldn't have such a good opportunity to get close to this kid."
"After all, we still have to thank him." The middle-aged man smiled.
Without the dean's order, he really wouldn't have found any chance to take action. There were very few opportunities to get close to Mo Bai, and this was a rare opportunity for them.
The elders of the hospital frowned when they heard this, because the dean's actions undoubtedly gave them an opportunity to take action, but the dean and the others also knew Mo Bai's situation.
This gave them some questions.
"Having said so much, why haven't you deans taken action yet? It seems that I overestimated them." said the middle-aged man.
He knew that the cultivation of those deans was unpredictable and they were no match for their strength, so there was no need to do anything after completing the task. It was enough to just wait for the trial of those deans.
But after he said so much, he still didn't take action, which made him a little suspicious.
He waved his hand, and the dozen or so figures nodded in understanding and slowly walked towards Nuo Xi and others, the sharp blades in their hands shining with cold light.
"Just these few people want to take action?" Si Qing said calmly.
In addition to Nuo Xi, there are four strong men in the sixth level of swordsmanship here. Just trying to touch them with just these people is simply wishful thinking. The only people they fear are the middle-aged man and the four subordinates behind him.
Chapter completed!
