Chapter 736 The assassin strikes again
Hai Lanxin briefly explained what happened, and Bai Lan understood.
"Lanxin, you are too nervous. This matter is not as serious as you think." Bai Lan smiled.
But Hai Lanxin obviously didn't think so, and said: "Sister Bai Lan, how can this matter not be serious? Look at those commanders, if it weren't for the princess cooperating with you in the end, they wouldn't believe you at all."
This is true.
Bai Lan smiled indifferently: "What does it matter? I don't care whether they believe it or not. Anyway, I just have to insist that the Sea King is fine. Can they do anything to me?"
This is easy to say, but Chen Xiao just saw her performance, but it was not like this. Of course, Chen Xiao would not point it out.
"Okay, okay, if there is nothing else, go to my bedroom and sit down. Let others deal with the assassins. I will think about how to tell Hai Qiu later." Bai Lan laughed.
However, just as she finished speaking, a black shadow suddenly rushed out from behind her like lightning, and a cold light pierced straight at the back of Bai Lan's heart!
Another assassin! The other party has been lurking in the palace, looking for another chance to attack!
At this time, there was no master in the hall, not even a guard. In this case, it was a godsend opportunity for the assassin, how could he miss it?
Unfortunately, it was just a little bit off...
"Bang!"
A sound of metal collision sounded. The assassin saw that his dagger was about to stab Bai Lan, and a figure suddenly blocked him, and then a black sword accurately blocked his dagger! The domineering energy transmitted from the black sword forced the assassin to fly back!
All this happened too suddenly, it would not be an exaggeration to say that it happened in a flash. From the appearance of the assassin to Chen Xiao blocking his attack, it might not even take a blink of an eye. The assassin flew backwards, with his feet on the wall, and rushed up again at a very fast speed, launching another attack!
Although his attack was blocked by Chen Xiao, when he saw clearly that Chen Xiao was only a Martial Saint, he immediately gave up the idea of escaping and chose to attack again.
A mere Martial Saint could be solved in less than three strokes!
However, the assassin could not imagine that the Martial Saint in front of him was not an ordinary Martial Saint!
Seeing the assassin rushing up again, Chen Xiao did not hesitate at all and decisively turned on the rage. When he blocked the opponent's dagger just now, Chen Xiao sensed the opponent's strength.
Eight-star Martial God! What a big deal! If Chen Xiao's strength was far higher than his realm and his physical strength was also high, it was very likely that he would be killed instead of Bai Lan!
But after blocking the attack, the situation was different. After the rage, Chen Xiao might not be able to kill the Eight-star Martial God in a short time, but he definitely had the strength to entangle with him!
The momentum surged, and the Flowing Cloud Immortal Step was performed, pulling a residual image, and greeted the assassin. The next moment, a sound of golden swords colliding was heard in the hall. It was at this time that Hai Lanxin finally reacted.
"Someone come! There's an assassin!" Hai Lanxin shouted immediately.
As the voice came out, there was a noise outside, and it was obvious that the guards rushed in. At this time, the assassin's first thought was to escape. In just a few breaths, he and Chen Xiao had fought dozens of times, but Chen Xiao blocked his attacks steadily every time, and he didn't look like he was easily killed. On the contrary, the assassin's own dagger had cracks in the fight, and it was no match for the Red Cloud Sword!
Although the assassin was puzzled as to why Chen Xiao, a saint, had the strength to fight him, compared to escaping, this was not something he needed to consider.
Immediately, the assassin decisively burst out, and a spiritual power suddenly spread out, forcibly knocking Chen Xiao out. Then, the dagger in his hand was aimed at Chen Xiao more than a dozen times in a breath. The energy on the dagger condensed into a huge venomous snake as it stabbed out, and it opened its mouth to bite Chen Xiao.
Immediately afterwards, the assassin turned around without hesitation, aimed at the place where he came in, and planned to retreat.
But just as he turned around, the energy around him suddenly became solidified. This sudden change made his body pause obviously. At this time, he was suddenly hit on the back by someone, and a domineering energy instantly invaded his body. His spiritual power began to dissipate at an extremely terrifying speed!
What happened?
The assassin was stunned for a moment. But then, he felt a sharp pain in his shoulder, and his body, which had not yet rushed out, suddenly fell down and hit the floor heavily. Then, there was a pain in his dantian, and the spiritual power in his body retreated like a tide.
My cultivation was abolished by someone?
The assassin was in a short state of unconsciousness, and he didn't understand what had just happened. It was only a dozen breaths before and after, and he, an eight-star martial god, was abolished like this?
"Shua!" A breeze blew, and the Chiyun Sword fell in front of him, and Chen Xiao appeared in his eyes intact.
If this guy hadn't wanted to run, Chen Xiao wouldn't have had much chance to take him down. But because of the appearance of the guards, the other party obviously focused on escaping, which gave Chen Xiao the opportunity. When he shook Chen Xiao away and turned around, Chen Xiao immediately turned on his full rage and decisively released the Fuling Tower, causing the other party to pause for a short time. Then he seized the opportunity and used the Fantian Tower with the power of destruction to destroy the other party's cultivation.
It was quite lucky to be able to do this.
"Tell me, who sent you here?" Chen Xiao asked coldly, with the Chiyun Sword pressed on the other party's neck.
However, facing Chen Xiao's question, the assassin suddenly sneered, and then his body trembled violently. When Chen Xiao realized that something was wrong, the other party had already died! Deader than dead!
What a domineering poison!
Chen Xiao was quite surprised that the eight-star martial god was poisoned to death in an instant. Especially the fact that the other party would choose to commit suicide so simply made him secretly surprised. This assassin is probably a dead warrior, but which force can cultivate a dead warrior with the strength of an eight-star martial god? This is not planting vegetables, where seeds can grow in large areas by just scattering them.
At this time, the guards outside had already come in. However, looking at the corpses on the ground, they were stunned and didn't understand what happened.
Fortunately, Bai Lan spoke in time: "Hurry up and be alert around to see if there are any companions of the assassin. If you find anyone, no matter who they are, arrest them."
The fact that the assassin can appear here and assassinate again is enough to judge that he has an insider in the Sea Emperor Sect.
However, Chen Xiao and Bai Lan knew very well that it would not be so easy to find this insider.
