Final Volume Chapter 31

Chapter 31 of the Final Volume

Pan Tai covered his neck and retreated repeatedly, but he had only taken a few steps back when a Tang Yin behind him stabbed him with a sword.

Sha! The sword passed under Pan Tai's ribs, not only picking up his spiritual armor, but also cutting a large cut of more than four inches in length under his ribs, with his skin and flesh turned outward and blood dripping.

Pan Tai groaned in pain and almost sat on the ground.

At the same time, the Tang Yins around him stabbed him with swords together. Pan Tai could not block the front, back, left or right. In the blink of an eye, he had been cut with more than ten wounds on his body, and his whole body looked like a blood gourd.

At this time, he could no longer hold on, and sat down on the ground, looking at the countless Tang Yins around him, and said in a trembling voice: "I have no grudges with His Highness Feng Wang, why does His Highness want to * me to such an extent?"

"No grudges?" One of the Tang Yins laughed, he walked slowly to Pan Tai, squatted down, looked at him, and said slowly: "You want to kill Brother Ren, how can you still say that you have no grudges with this king? Pan Tai, you can't escape today, finally, do you have anything to say to this king?"

"This old man... This old man will kill you first!" Pan Tai roared, raised his sword and stabbed the Tang Yin in front of him.

Puff! This sword hit Tang Yin's eyebrows and pierced his head directly. But what makes people horrified is that he actually squatted like nothing happened, and his face was still cheerful.

He slowly raised his hand, holding the spiritual sword that pierced his head, and did not pull it out, but cut it out horizontally. With a rustling sound, the spirit sword was cut out of his brain horizontally, but there was not even a wound on his forehead.

He looked at Pan Tai and said faintly: "Do you know that in order to push Brother Ren to the throne, I spent a lot of effort to get rid of the three great elders Huangfu, Dongfang, and Nie Zhen, paving the way for Brother Ren, but you want to kill him, how can I keep you?!"

Pan Tai was already too horrified to look at the half-human and half-ghost Tang Yin in front of him. He murmured: "So, it turned out that you killed them..."

"Haha!" Tang Yin smiled and said proudly: "In terms of spirit martial arts, no one can be compared with Shen Chi, but in terms of brains, Shen Chi is far behind." As he spoke, he slowly raised the sword in his hand and pressed it against Pan Tai's chest.

Without any warning, there was a whoosh, and black flames burst out from his palm, like a black python, crawling along the sword to Pan Tai's body.

Pan Tai was horrified and screamed. He waved his hand to knock off the black fire that was crawling on him, but after he slapped it twice, his palm also caught fire and he gradually lost consciousness. He turned his head and looked, and was so scared that his soul flew away. It turned out that his entire palm was burned by the black fire, and there was not even a bit of ashes left. What was terrible was that the black strange fire had not been extinguished, and it was burning rapidly upward along his arm. White spiritual energy was constantly emanating under the burning of the black fire.

"Ah--" Pan Tai's cry was no longer like a human cry. He rolled all over the ground, but where he rolled, even the ground was burned with pits of different sizes.

Not long after, Pan Tai's cry disappeared, and even his body disappeared. Looking at the ground, it was empty, no hair left, no clothes or debris left, as if Pan Tai had never appeared in Ren Mansion.

The disciples of Shenchi standing nearby were all stunned. It can be said that Pan Tai was like a madman, performing a one-man show from beginning to end.

He screamed strangely, slashed with a sword, and occasionally covered his body with his hands, as if he was injured, but there was no one around him.

Then he seemed to be exhausted, slowly sat on the ground, panting heavily, and then Tang Yin walked up and slapped Pan Tai's chest with a plain palm, burning him in the fire of darkness.

Except for Pan Tai himself, no one present was aware of the existence of the Shadow Illusion Prison, nor could they feel the strange and terrifying scenes that Pan Tai saw before his death.

After sucking up the floating spiritual energy in the air, Tang Yin comfortably exhaled a long breath of turbid air, then looked down, looking at the empty ground, he sneered in his heart.

He said to the people around him expressionlessly: "What happened tonight is not a glorious thing. You can't spread it casually. Do you understand?"

"Yes! Your Highness!" The guards of Feng Kingdom and the disciples of Shenchi all bowed in response.

Tang Yin nodded and waved to everyone. The guards and disciples of Shenchi who gathered around dispersed.

At this time, the old housekeeper of Ren Mansion walked up quickly, bowed to Tang Yin, and said with a trembling voice: "This time, thanks to the help of Your Highness Feng Wang, I would like to thank Your Highness on behalf of my son."

Tang Yin smiled slightly and asked: "Old man, is Brother Ren awake now?"

"This... not yet."

"When Brother Ren wakes up, remember to remind him that his identity is different from before. I don't know how many people have ill intentions towards him. He must be careful in the future and can't be as careless as today." Tang Yin said seriously.

The old butler nodded repeatedly and said, "Your Highness, Prince Feng, please rest assured. I will definitely pass on your words to you, young master."

"Yes!" Tang Yin smiled leisurely and said, "It's getting late. I should go back too." After saying that, he walked out.

When he left the gate of Ren Mansion, he raised his hand slightly, and a black mist suddenly appeared beside him, and Cheng Jin's figure emerged. He turned his head and whispered: "Deal with all of Pan Tai's disciples, and don't let anyone escape."

"Yes, my king!" Cheng Jin bowed his hands in response, and then his figure became empty and disappeared.

That night, Pan Tai, the elder of Shenchi, disappeared, and with him, all his disciples also disappeared. Only a few elders knew what happened, but as Tang Yin said, this was really a scandal of Shenchi and should not be spread to the outside world.

Pan Tai's disappearance also made Xiao Xuan realize that the assassination must have failed. What worried him most was that he didn't know whether Pan Tai was killed or captured alive. If it was the latter, Pan Tai would probably tell the truth. If so, his situation in the city would be dangerous.

The next day, early in the morning, Xiao Xuan planned to move to the Sichuan Army camp outside Shenchi City. Before he could leave, a guard ran into the tent to report that the King of Wind was outside the camp gate.

Xiao Xuan was surprised to hear that Tang Yin had come. Why did Tang Yin come at this time instead of earlier or later? What was his intention? He pondered for a moment and then said, "Please come!"

Xiao Xuan straightened his robe and went to the central army tent. Not long after he sat down, Tang Yin came in from outside.

"Brother Xiao Wang, you got up so early today!" Tang Yin looked at him happily.

Xiao Xuan smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Please sit down, my brother!" As he spoke, he asked, "My brother, you came so early, I guess you have something to do!"

"Yes." Tang Yin nodded and turned to look around. Understanding what he meant, Xiao Xuan waved to the guards around him and said, "You go out first!"

The guards all bowed and saluted, and then filed out of the tent. After they all left, Tang Yin said, "Last night, Elder Pan Tai attempted to assassinate Master Ren. I wonder if Brother Xiao has heard anything about it?"

Xiao Xuan pretended to be surprised and said, "Is this true? This thief is really bold..."

Before he finished speaking, Tang Yin shook his head and said, "Even if Pan Tai has the courage to assassinate the crown prince, he would not dare to do such a thing. In fact, there is someone behind him who is instructing him."

Ah! Xiao Xuan took a breath. Did Tang Yin know everything? He narrowed his eyes, looked directly at Tang Yin, and said word by word: "Who on earth has such great ability to instruct the dignified elders to assassinate the crown prince?"

Tang Yin chuckled and said: "The only person who has such ability is me and you, Brother Xiao!" At this point, seeing Xiao Xuan's face suddenly changed, he sighed again and said: "Brother Xiao is too careless to use a spineless person like Pan Tai to do things. Fortunately, he fell into my hands. If he fell into the hands of the Shenchi people, wouldn't Brother Xiao's wisdom be ruined?"

Pan Tai was indeed captured. Xiao Xuan gritted his teeth secretly, but his face did not show any expression. He said: "I have no connection with this person, how can I instruct him to assassinate the crown prince? This must be him turning the tables and trying to frame me. Don't be deceived by him, my brother!"

Tang Yin was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded, stood up and said: "Since my brother said so, I will rest assured to hand this thief over to the elders of Shenchi for interrogation. I'll take my leave first."

Hearing this, Xiao Xuan also stood up and asked carefully: "My brother, are you saying that Pan Tai is in your hands now?"

"That's right!"

"This thief is talking nonsense and intends to frame me. Keeping him is very disadvantageous to me!" Xiao Xuan looked straight at Tang Yin and said slowly. The implication is that he hopes Tang Yin can help him get rid of Pan Tai.

Tang Yin nodded thoughtfully and murmured, "Brother Xiao is right. This happened before the new Saint King ascended the throne. Even if Shenchi can't find evidence of Brother Xiao's involvement, I'm afraid he will be hostile to him, and it may even affect the relationship between Chuan and Shenchi in the future."

Xiao Xuan frowned secretly. This was what he was most worried about. He said, "So Brother Xiao can't hand this man over to Shenchi no matter what. It's best if he dies during the interrogation."

Tang Yin was stunned for a moment, then smiled knowingly and said, "I know what to do. Since Brother Xiao asked for help, I will definitely help you. However, I hope Brother Xiao will agree to my request."

Xiao Xuan was stunned by his words and asked, "What did Brother Xiao ask me for?"

"Brother Xiao is really a noble man who forgets things easily. Two days ago, I mentioned the matter of going to the capital outside the Elders' Court. Brother Xiao, have you forgotten it?" Tang Yin reminded with a smile.
