Volume 10, Chapter 856

Chapter 856

Tang Yin and Xiao Xiang rushed out of the woods with all their strength. When they got out of the woods, they saw an endless wheat field, but there were no houses nearby.

He didn't stop for a moment and rushed into the wheat field. As soon as he ran out, the assassins behind him chased him out like a pack of wolves, buzzing one after another, and flying knives whistled.

Tang Yin seemed to have eyes on his back. Without turning his head, he used one hand to pick up several swords and picked up the flying knives one by one.

The two sides chased and fought, and ran for two miles. Tang Yin looked up and saw a lonely thatched house in the wheat field. He ran straight to the thatched house without thinking.

Such an intense battle consumed a lot of Tang Yin's physical strength. In addition, the clothes tied to Xiao Xiang were a little loose. He needed to find a place to rest for a while and fix Xiao Xiang firmly.

Tang Yin took two steps at a time and rushed to the thatched house. He flew and broke the door open, and rushed in. This thatched house was not big. It should be built by a farmer who was watching over the crops. However, there was no one inside at this time. The thatched house was empty and there was nothing else.

As soon as he rushed into the thatched house, an assassin followed him in. Tang Yin returned his sword and chopped the assassin's head. The latter swung his sword to block. With a crisp sound, Tang Yin's sword was blocked by him, but he did not defend against Tang Yin's kick.

With a crisp sound, the assassin at the door of the thatched house was kicked out by him. The spiritual armor on his chest was broken, and he spit out a mouthful of blood while still in the air.

The thatched house was surrounded by earth walls. Tang Yin pushed it with his hands and felt that it was still solid. Then he loosened the clothes tied around his waist and put Xiao Xiang down. At the same time, he stood at the door of the house and squinted his eyes to look out.

The assassins who caught up with them surrounded the thatched hut in an instant, but they did not attack immediately. People were lying in the wheat field. At first glance, they could not see the existence of the assassins, but Tang Yin might be able to feel their spiritual pressure.

"Are you injured?" Tang Yin blocked the door like a door god, and asked without turning his head.

Xiao Xiang was now slumped on the ground, her face pale, her body trembling involuntarily, she only had the strength to breathe heavily, and she could not speak for a long time.

After panting for a while, she swallowed her saliva, looked down at her body, shook her head and said: "No... I don't seem to be injured..."

Tang Yin glanced at her sideways. Xiao Xiang was in a mess at this time, her hair was messy, and many hairs were stuck to her face because of sweat stains. She also lost her outer clothes, leaving only two broken sleeves hanging on her arms, and her white inner clothes were completely exposed, which was a world of difference from her usual dignified image.

"How far is it from here to Chunyang Town?" Tang Yin looked around the wheat field outside vigilantly and asked in a low voice.

Xiao Xiang was now completely frightened. How could she know where this place was and how far it was from Chunyang Town? She stammered, "It should be... it should not be far away!"

Tang Yin looked back at her again and saw that her eyes were full of panic. He stopped asking and thought it would be useless to ask.

He silently weighed in his mind that if Chunyang Town was located 20 or 30 miles northeast of Zhaoyang, then this place was at most ten miles away from Chunyang Town. With such a short distance, he should be able to support himself and Xiao Xiang if he rushed over.

Thinking of this, he took a deep breath and was about to carry Xiao Xiang again, but at this moment, several white shadows appeared in the wheat field.

Tang Yin's heart was shocked. He looked carefully and found that the newly appeared white shadows were the three mysterious spiritual practitioners who attacked him before. However, what surprised Tang Yin was that there were three more companions around the other party, and now there were six people.

The six people stood in the wheat field, motionless, like six white ghosts, giving people a dead and depressing feeling.

Tang Yin's eyes slowly narrowed. These spiritual practitioners did not fight with the nearby dark spiritual practitioners. There was only one explanation, they were in the same group. Then, these spiritual practitioners should also come from Shenchi.

No wonder their cultivation was so profound, and they also fought with the first batch of assassins.

Now, he could almost judge that there were two groups of assassins. One group came from the interior of Chuanguo, because of the conflict of interests, they wanted to kill Xiao Xiang, and the other group came from Shenchi to replace Ling Ye to complete his unfinished task.

There were so many assassins outside, and Tang Yin immediately gave up the idea of ​​rushing out by force.

The dark spiritual practitioners alone were enough to give him a headache, and now there were so many bright spiritual martial arts masters. It would be difficult for him to fight against them alone, not to mention that he had to protect Xiao Xiang.

All he had to do now was wait, wait for Xiao Xiang's guards to find this place, wait for Zhaoyang's reinforcements to arrive in time.

As the assassins had not yet launched their attack, it was extremely quiet outside, without any sound. Xiao Xiang slowly stood up, walked towards Tang Yin at the door and asked curiously: "Didn't the assassin catch up?"

Tang Yin took a step back, pushed Xiao Xiang away, and said in a deep voice: "The assassin is outside, stay away from the door and window!"

Xiao Xiang's face suddenly changed, and he quickly shrank into the corner. Tang Yin looked around outside again, then he took a deep breath, retreated into the room, sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes and meditated. Since the assassins did not take action, he also took this opportunity to recover his strength.

Looking at Tang Yin, Xiao Xiang murmured: "Why haven't the assassins retreated until now?"

"Because they haven't completed their mission." Tang Yin said with his eyes closed.

"Aren't they afraid of the army coming to encircle and suppress them?"

"Of course they are afraid, but before the army arrives, they still have time to make a last stand." Tang Yin said faintly.

"Where did the princes find so many powerful assassins..." Xiao Xiang sighed softly.

Tang Yin smiled bitterly. If these people were really the subordinates of a certain prince of Chuan State, then Xiao Xiang would have died long ago. How could she still be alive today? He was too lazy to explain, or rather, he was unwilling to point it out.

The calm before the storm did not last long. As Tang Yin said, the assassins were also afraid that Xiao Xiang's guards and the large group of people from Chuan State would come to reinforce them. What they had to do now was to use all their strength and make a last stand.

Tang Yin, who was originally sitting in the thatched hut, suddenly grabbed the sword and spiritualized it. Before Xiao Xiang could react, Tang Yin's arm shook, and the spiritual sword flew out of his hand and shot straight at her head.

Xiao Xiang was so frightened that she instinctively fell to the ground. With a thud, the spirit sword did not pierce her, but pierced the wall behind her. The earth wall was easily penetrated by the spirit sword. Almost at the same time, a scream came from outside the wall.

Tang Yin stood up, walked to Xiao Xiang, pulled her up, and then grabbed the spirit sword nailed to the wall, slowly pulled it back, and said while shaking off the remaining blood on it: "What is coming will eventually come!"

Before he finished speaking, there was a crisp sound, and three flying knives shattered the window and shot into the house from outside at the same time. The flying knives spun and danced in the house, blowing out gusts of strong wind.

Tang Yin first pulled Xiao Xiang behind him, and then slashed three swords in a row. With three crisp sounds, the chains connecting the spirit knives were cut off one after another, and the flying spirit knives fell to the ground one after another, making a muffled sound of clang and clang.

Just after he cut down the three spirit swords, dozens of black light balls flew in from the window and the door. Tang Yin's heart trembled, and he secretly shouted that it was the shadow curse! Without time to think about it, he directly pressed Xiao Xiang under him.

Snap, snap, snap!

The flying black light balls exploded one after another, and the black matter splashed everywhere, falling on the walls and the ground, making a hissing corrosion sound, and white smoke came out at the same time. Tang Yin, who was in it, was naturally not spared. A layer of spirit armor on his back was splashed. Fortunately, his cultivation was deep enough, and the spirit armor could still resist the corrosion of the shadow curse.

Of course, this was just the prelude to the assassin's full-scale attack. Soon, a black shadow rushed in from the window and the door, holding a spirit sword in his hand, and came to Tang Yin in a flash, swinging the sword and slashing.

The two of them were fast, but Tang Yin's sword was faster. Although he was lying on Xiao Xiang's body and was the last to attack, his spirit sword touched the feet of the two first.

Puff, puff! The spirit sword pierced through the spirit armor and pierced the feet of the two men.

The two assassins cried out in pain, and the spirit swords they had raised did not chop down, and they staggered out of the thatched hut. As soon as they retreated outside, two more people rushed in and used spirit swords to attack Tang Yin's head and waist.

Tang Yin quickly stood up, dodged the opponent's attack, and shook his hand to stab back two swords, attacking the chests of the two men. The two assassins did not retreat either, and blocked Tang Yin's sword with their spirit swords. Then, one of them attacked Tang Yin fiercely, and the other rushed to Xiao Xiang on the side.

Tang Yin reacted very quickly, his body was like a willow in the wind, dodging the opponent's continuous swords, and at the same time, he swung his arm, and the spirit sword shot out, nailing the assassin who rushed to Xiao Xiang directly to the wall.

Seeing his companion die tragically under his sword, another assassin screamed, and drew his sword faster, and attacked Tang Yin like crazy. His sword was already fast enough, but it was a pity that it was still not faster than Tang Yin's body skills.

He had no weapon in his hand, and his body spun like a top, sliding from the assassin's front to his back in an instant, and then he reached out with both hands and grabbed the assassin's waist.

The assassin was shocked, but before he could break free from Tang Yin's palm, the latter's palm had ignited the dark fire, and then heard a whoosh, and the dark fire instantly burned all over the assassin's body.

His spiritual armor was burned to nothing under the burning of the dark fire, and the assassin let out a heart-wrenching howl and fell down limply.

It sounds slow, but it was actually very fast. Tang Yin injured two people and killed two people in a row, and it only took more than ten seconds from beginning to end. This time, the assassin's attack that had just been launched was once again declared over.

At the same time, in Zhaoyang City, Wanhua Tower

A middle-aged man hurriedly walked into the backyard of the restaurant, went up to the private room on the second floor, pushed the door open, strode to the bed in the inner room, bowed to the lowered curtain, and whispered: "Sir!"

A lazy question came from inside the curtain: "How did it go?"

"Reply...Report to the young master, it was unsuccessful!"

"Haha, it was unsuccessful again, then why did you come back." A gloomy laugh came from the curtain.
