Chapter 884 The Promise Comes

The assassin suddenly fell from the sky, and there were no monks defending the sky above. The tent where Niu Youdao lived was almost directly attacked by the assassin from top to bottom.

The three bosses who entered the account were surprised, where did Niu Youdao come from in the account? There is no one at all!

be cheated! This was the common thought of the three of them, and the defense army had already entered, and the three of them immediately fought with the defense army into a group.

It bloomed in the center, disrupting the defense of the army outside the tent, and a group of black-clothed masked men appeared out of nowhere, participating in the fight.

Seeing this situation, the Supreme Elders of the three major factions of the Zhao Kingdom quickly took the opportunity to leave, and did not plan to stay for a long time.

With their cultivation base, once they fly into the sky, it is very difficult to intercept them in the air without corresponding strength.

Although they had already escaped quickly, looking back at the place where the fighting was still going on, the three of them were a little confused, unable to figure out what was going on.

It seems that the three major factions of Yan State are still acting according to the agreed plan, but there is no figure of Niu Youdao in the tent at all, and they really didn’t pay any price to stop them. The three of them don’t know what the three major factions of Yan State are doing ghost.

Long Xiu, Gong Lince, and Meng Xuan also quickly rushed to Shang Chaozong's side, Meng Xuan waved his hand and said, "Hurry up, escort the prince to avoid it first!"

A group of monks immediately surrounded Shang Chaozong to avoid possible risks, Shang Chaozong raised his hand and said, "No need!"

Not only did they not retreat, but when they saw the armies from all directions rushing to help and rush to the place where they were fighting, they said to the herald officer: "Order the army to stop attacking, and the soldiers at the fighting place will retreat immediately, and let the assassins make trouble, don't worry about it!"

"Yes!" The herald quickly ran to deliver the order.

The heads of the three major sects looked at each other, Gong Lince frowned, and felt relieved when he understood something.

Meng Xuan couldn't help asking: "Niu Youdao is in danger, why does the prince refuse to save him?"

Shang Chaozong: "The soldiers' sacrifices were in vain. Didn't the monks of all factions rush to encircle and suppress the assassins?"

The army obeyed the order and withdrew from the fighting place, the tent where Niu Youdao lived had been destroyed and there was nowhere to be seen, the monks from the three sects and a group of black-clothed masked assassins fought decently.

The monks of the three sects who had no chance to get close to this place before now have the chance to get close. If they are not allowed to get close, they are here to save people and kill the enemy.

The fight didn't last for a while, and the group of black-clothed masked assassins quickly evacuated from the scene. With the military order of Shang Chaozong, no one stopped them, and let the group of assassins leave.

Shang Chaozong then rushed to the scene of the fight, looked at the bodies of the fallen soldiers, stepped on the bloody water under his feet to inspect the scene, his cheek muscles squirmed fiercely, suddenly turned his head to look at the heads of the three major sects, and said in a deep voice : "Assassins descended from the sky and directly penetrated into the center of our army. Could it be that the air defense that you mages have built for our army is not enough? If this continues, in my king's opinion, there is no need to fight this battle again!"

Meng Xuandao: "This matter will definitely be investigated and explained to the prince!" He said back, but his eyes were searching around to see if he could find Niu Youdao's body.

Not found, let alone Niu Youdao, the bodies of those people around Niu Youdao were also missing.

Having never seen Wu Zhaoxing and others around Niu Youdao make a move, Meng Xuan and the others felt faintly in a bad mood.

After a while, a monk ran over and reported to the three heads in a low voice: "After I entered the tent, I didn't see any figure of Niu Youdao, except for the escaped 'assassin', there was no other figure at all. It can be concluded that Niu Youdao is not here at all."

not there? The three heads were startled when they heard the news, Gong Lince suddenly turned around, stared at Shang Chaozong and shouted: "My lord, the disciples of our three sects rushed to rescue people, but the tent is empty, and Niu Youdao is not there at all, what's going on?" ?”

Shang Chaozong said slowly: "It is indeed empty. Daoist woke up yesterday and left immediately after waking up. Fortunately, he left, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable."

Ran? Long Xiu and Meng Xuan's expressions suddenly became a little ugly, Gong Lince said sharply: "Since the people have already left, why does the army still pretend to protect this place?"

Meng Shan, who was sitting in a wheelchair, cried out, "This is what the old man meant, is there something wrong?"

When something happened, he first took over the responsibility, so that if something happened, Shang Chaozong couldn't let the matter fall on his head.

Gong Lince became angry, pointed at the corpses on the ground and said, "Does Meng Shuai mean that he wants to see the soldiers die in vain?"

Meng Shanming: "Master Dao has a great influence on the morale of the Nanzhou army. This arrangement is to prove that Master Dao is still there and to stabilize the morale of the army. There is nothing wrong with doing this, but I never thought that there would be assassins, and the assassins actually To be able to accurately find the location of Dao Lord, in my opinion, there must be something strange about this matter."

Meng Xuan continued: "Even if it's not weird, outsiders will think it's weird when they see it. I don't think the assassin came for the cow, but for the prince. This place is surrounded by heavy troops, anyone who sees it will be surprised." I thought it was the center of the Yan army."

The two sides went back and forth, but nothing came of it. In the case of Niu Youdao's accident, Shang Chaozong didn't want to turn his face completely.

And the three major factions' pursuit of the assassins failed to win even a single assassin.

Later, according to the description of the soldiers on the scene, it was found out that the assassin was from the Zhao country.

And the three major factions also gave an explanation, saying that two large birds were hijacked by Zhao Guo, and the assassin took the opportunity to touch the center of the Yan Army, and denounced Zhao Jun to beware of Zhao Guo in order to break the siege. Sowing dissension and the like.

If it wasn't for Niu Youdao's warning in advance, and the secret letter of unknown origin to remind him, Shang Chaozong might really have believed this nonsense.

Now, although both parties know it well, neither of them pierced that layer of window paper.

For the three major sects of Yan State, Niu Youdao actually let Niu Youdao run away. You don't need to guess how to run away. To be able to avoid the eyes and ears here, you should have borrowed Yunji's escaping technique.

Colluding with foreign enemies, a well-planned murder did not achieve any effect, but made Shang Chaozong no longer trust here. Long Xiu, Gong Lince and Meng Xuan seemed to be in a bad mood.

Seeking to see the master, the master only said "heal well", and Xin Jikui came out of the master's tent very disappointed.

I missed it! Under the night, with the help of the fire not far away, he looked at his severed arm, and Xin Jikui felt mixed feelings.

If the matter is not accomplished, there is no credit for it, and no one wants to talk about embarrassing things. He knows that his credit is in vain...

Zhonglingyuxiudi, beautiful mountains and rivers are like fairyland, Zijin Cave!

Yan Li went down the mountain suspiciously, because his disciples reported that his old friend was visiting outside the mountain gate.

The visitor did not reveal his identity, but only gave him a letter, saying that he would naturally know who it was after seeing the letter.

After Yan Li saw the letter, he didn't dare to confirm who it was. There was only an approximate date in the letter, and he said that he regretted not listening to his advice.

What's the mess?

According to the date on the letter, he had already entered the Heavenly Capital Secret Realm at that time, not long after entering the Heavenly Capital Secret Realm.

At that time, he didn’t seem to have advised anyone. His status was fine, and he wouldn’t persuade someone just by arresting him. If he hadn’t persuaded someone, but the other party didn’t listen to his advice, it seemed that Niu Youdao was the only one who persuaded Niu Youdao to deal with it perfunctorily. Chu Fengping from Lingjian Mountain, but Niu Youdao didn't agree.

Could it be that Niu Youdao is here? But according to the news from the front line, wasn't Niu Youdao seriously injured and comatose in the front line army?

With this suspicion in his heart, Yan Li hurried to the outside of the mountain gate, only to see a few people who were obviously disguised were waiting for him outside the mountain gate.

Yan Li was vigilant, and slowly walked out of the mountain gate and asked, "I wonder who wrote the letter to Yan?"

One of them cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Elder Yan is really forgetful, long time no see, how is Elder Yan?"

Hearing this familiar voice, Yan Li frowned, and then looked at the opponent's figure, and the opponent deliberately shook the sword pinned to his waist to show him, who else could it be if it wasn't Niu Youdao?

He was about to laugh out loud, but seeing Niu Youdao gave him a small gesture, he immediately suppressed his smile and lowered his voice, "Brother, I heard that you were seriously injured at the front line, why did you come here?"

Niu Youdao: "Why did you come? Elder Yan will naturally know why he turned around and asked the head of the palace."

Yan Li: "You came here suddenly, do you have something to do with me?"

Niu Youdao: "What else can I do? I came here this time to fulfill my promise. I promised to join Zijin Cave. Did Zijin Cave forget?"

"Ah?" Yan Li was surprised and said: "Now? Brother, are you kidding me? If you join now, once the news gets out and the other two families get into trouble, will the frontline battle still be fought?"

Niu Youdao: "That's why I came here in disguise. Zijin Cave is such a big place, isn't it possible that I can't even find a place to hide? As long as Zijin Cave strictly keeps its secrets, outsiders won't know about it."

"No..." Yan Li carefully looked around and said in a low voice, "Brother, since the battle is coming to an end, why rush for a while? There's no need to take such a risk!"

Niu Youdao: "Hey, this is interesting. I was afraid that Zijin Cave was worried that I would not keep my promise, and that I would cross the river and destroy the bridge, so I came here before the end of the war. I did this to show my sincerity. I sent it to my door on my own initiative." Put yourself as a hostage in the hands of Zijindong, but you are not willing to accept it. Elder Yan, let's make it clear first. It's not that I didn't keep my promise, but you drove me away. Since you don't welcome me, then I will Let me take my leave first." She cupped her hands and said goodbye.

That was really leaving as soon as he said it, without hesitation at all, he turned around and left after speaking.

This sounded wrong, Yan Li became anxious, and quickly stretched out his hand to grab his arm, "Don't rush away! Brother, you're here, go up the mountain and rest first, let me do my best as a landlord, lest I turn around and say I don't understand Favor."

"When you go up the mountain, just go up the mountain. Don't talk about it. I don't want people to find out. Your behavior makes people suspicious..."

The two went up the mountain muttering like this, followed by Guan Fangyi and others. On the way, Niu Youdao told Yan Li the identities of the people behind, and Yan Li just turned his head to look a little more.

Arriving at a remote guest house, Yan Li pointed at Niu Youdao's face again, "You take off the mask first, so that I can see the real face, and I can feel at ease in my heart, don't make a fake one."

Niu Youdao picked it off as he said, showing his true face, but his face was still a little pale, and the injury was too serious, and he couldn't recover after a few strokes.

Yan Li had heard about the rescue of the hostages based on the news from the front line, and he couldn't help sighing twice when he saw that he was seriously injured.

I have had contacts in the secret realm of Tiandu, and I know this person's methods well, but I didn't expect to be injured like this.
