Chapter 108 Assassination
Chapter 108 Assassination
In the hall.
Although the old man in purple robe was more respectful, he also had a certain arrogance. Hearing these words, he couldn't help but said: "Your Highness, King Jin, are we just sitting there waiting for death? But there is no chance at all..”
“That Wu Yuan never goes to Yunshan all year round.”
“Occasionally I go down the mountain, and I only stay in the east of Yunshan City. You know very well that it is heavily guarded there and it is difficult for us to get accurate information." The old man in purple robe said: "As for Yunshan? We also tried to spy on one or two things, but no matter whether we sent people or secretly bribed them, there was no trace in the end..”
“Furthermore.”
“For more than a year, most of our forces in the territory of Hengyun Sect have been exploring the traces of the 'Dark Sword', and we are completely unable to take care of Wu Yuan." The purple-robed old man defended himself with a series of words..
Dongwang Jinjiu stared at each other.
He knew that the other party was defending and stating the truth..
The power that can be mobilized is not enough, and the Hengyun Sect's protection of Wu Yuan is equally unprecedented..
“Wang Huang, what I want is not an explanation, but the result..”
Dongwang Jinjiu said coldly: "According to the latest information, Wu Yuan is already the number one contemporary in Yunwu Palace, and he has passed through the 'Hengtian Pavilion Second Floor' in Yunshan. He is likely to have the strength of a first-class master.".”
The old man in purple robe listened and felt helpless in his heart..
Although this information has not yet been fully disseminated, almost all high-level officials from all parties are aware of it..
How could he not know？
But if you know, what can you do?？
suddenly.
“His Highness the King of the East." A powerful voice suddenly came from far and near, followed by a phantom flashing past.
A blue-robed figure appeared in the hall.
He is thin, nearly two meters tall, has an extraordinary bearing, and has a pair of sparkling eyes. He is not afraid at all even in front of the 'Dong Wang Jinjiu' who is ranked twelfth on the Earth Ranking..
“Brother." The old man in blue robe said..
“Lu Jiangyin! "Dong Wang Jinjiu frowned slightly..
Anyone who understands the situation in Jiangzhou will immediately understand the identities of the three people present when they hear their names..
The Jin Empire is now known as the "Twelve Princes" guarding the four prefectures of Jiangzhou.
In fact, everyone knows that the real leaders are the three Dibang Grandmasters - Chen Luo, Lu Jiangyin, and Wang Huang.
Among the three great masters, Chen Luo is the strongest, while Lu Jiangyin and Wang Huang are brothers with different surnames who are more united..
The two sides restrained each other, which was also the check and balance strategy of the Jin Empire..
“His Highness the King of the East has arrived, but I am unable to welcome you from afar. I hope you will forgive me." Lu Jiangyin bowed slightly and cupped his hands..
Saw this scene.
Dongwang Jinjiu's expression softened slightly. He knew very well that the two people in front of him were both masters and masters, and they were the two sharp blades for the empire's eastward advance..
It's impossible to really punish.
Grandmasters and masters are all proud.
Just like Grandmaster Chen Luo, even if his protection of the Ninth Prince was unfavorable and resulted in his death, he would only end the matter by reducing his rank..
“Duke of law.”
“In the past few years, you have not eradicated these threats, whether it is the hidden knife, Wu Yuan, or Xu Hui." Dong Wang Jinjiu said softly: "You must give me an explanation..”
“It's because I didn't do the job well." Lu Jiangyin said in a low voice: "Let His Highness Dong Wang worry about it and have to go to Jiangzhou..”
Different from the purple-robed old man Wang Huang.
Lu Jiangyin didn’t defend himself at all.
Dongwang Jinjiu, as their direct superior, went to Jiangzhou to question the crime, so he must be angry..
Admit your mistake and be honest！
What is the actual situation and does it matter? important, but more important is the attitude of admitting mistakes.
Attitude is important.
“Okay, I also know that you are dealing with all parties, the situation is complicated, and your hands are not strong enough." Dong Wang Jinjiu nodded: "I don't blame you guys..”
“but.”
“The situation must be resolved at this point." Dong Wang Jinjiu said calmly: "You can discuss a plan.？”
Lu Jiangyin and Wang Huang looked at each other.
“Second brother, tell King Dong about the plan you have made." Lu Jiangyin said..
He knew that his second brother had just hated King Dong, so he wanted to give the other brother the opportunity to express himself and ease their relationship..
“Your Highness.”
Wang Huang was a straightforward man, but he was not a fool. He understood that his elder brother was giving him a chance and said: "We made two plans together and were about to report it when your highness came..”
“Tell me." Dongwang Jinjiu remained calm..
“The first is to offer a reward." The purple-robed old man Wang Huang said: "Let the Qixing Tower, Jiusha Mansion and other forces go and fight with……”
“Difficult." Dongwang Jinjiu shook his head directly.
veto！
“Top masters have the chance to kill Wu Yuan, but the risk is extremely high and not many people are willing. Wu Yuan's reward is always there, but no one can complete it." Dong Wang Jinjiu said indifferently: "As for the Grandmaster? It would be extremely costly to have the masters from Seven Star Tower and Nine Kills Mansion dispatched..”
Wang Huang and Lu Jiangyin both nodded..
To kill a hidden knife, the Jin Empire is willing to pay 100 million taels of silver！
Even paying the price of a set of magic skills.
Can you kill Wu Yuan? Firstly, the talent shown by the other party is not that terrifying, and secondly, Wu Yuan is still weak, and there are more arrangements that can be made at a lower cost..
the most important.
It is an unspoken rule that all parties in the world abide by. The Earth Ranking Grandmaster will not easily attack warriors below the Grandmaster level..
For a master, an army of millions is useless. Once he goes crazy to assassinate, how many days will it take to stop him?？
“What about second? "Dong Wang Jinjiu asked.
“According to the intelligence we collected, Wu Yuan goes down the mountain to go home once every year during the Chinese New Year." Wang Huang said: "Although the defense of Yunshan Mansion is strong, it is not difficult for experts at the top of the list to sneak in..”
“According to time, Wu Yuan is about to go down the mountain.”
“Therefore, we plan to send several top experts to jointly sneak into Yunshan Mansion.”
“Assassination." Wang Huang solemnly said: "After the first wave of assassinations, regardless of success or failure, immediately retreat..”
Dongwang Jinjiu listens.
This plan sounds simple.
But in fact, this is the norm. The real conspiracy cannot have seven or eight reversals, because human nature is difficult to distinguish and people's hearts are unpredictable..
The so-called calculations without omissions and clever tips are mostly the imagination of literati.
To crush with absolute strength and win with dignity is what most wise men want..
“Well, it will be much easier to assassinate in Yunshan Mansion than in Yunshan." Dong Wang Jinjiu said softly: "However, just arranging a few top experts may not be successful..”
“Maybe, we will all fall into it.”
“Wang Huang！”
“Since this is the plan you conceived, you are the most suitable candidate, so why not take this trip once?" Dong Wang Jinjiu said calmly..
“I? "Wang Huang's pupils shrank..
He couldn't help but look at his elder brother.
“His Highness the King of the East.”
Lu Jiangyin frowned: "If the master takes action, then Wu Yuan will naturally not be spared, but Bu Yu and Huan Jian will probably go crazy.".”
Once the fragile balance is broken.
Results are difficult to predict.
“I hope that when the time comes, Bu Yu will be angry and come to Jinyang City with his sword." Dong Wang Jinjiu said softly: "In the next period of time, I will be in charge of Jinyang City..”
“Don't worry too much.”
“Bu Yu is nearly a hundred years old, Huan Jian is selfish.”
“Wu Yuan is the only big threat to the future of Hengyun Sect." Dong Wang Jinjiu said slowly: "We can no longer stay, Wu Yuan must be eradicated before the 'Battle of Dingjiang' breaks out..”
“otherwise.”
“After the war, Wu Yuan is likely to escape from Yunshan and hide for more than ten years. When he becomes a master or even a grand master, he will show up again. By then, it will be difficult to eradicate him." Dong Wang Jinjiu said..
Both Lu Jiangyin and Wang Huang were suffocated..
Grandmaster？
The world generally refers to the top ten in the "Earth Ranking" as Grandmasters, but in fact, the Grandmasters on the Earth Ranking generally refer to the "strongest masters at the peak" as Grandmasters..
In the world, there are only twenty or thirty people with great master strength..
Looking at Jiangzhou, there are only two great masters.
One is Grandmaster Yu, the leader of Hengyun Sect, and the other is Chu Ping, the king of Baijiang.’.
With these two people present, it will be difficult for the Jin Empire to conquer Jiangzhou. This shows how terrifying the intimidation and combat power of the Grand Master are..
“The Battle of Dingjiang? What is it? Lu Jiangyin suddenly asked.
“It doesn't hurt to tell you first. After all, we will notify you by May at the latest so that they can prepare." Dong Wang Jin Jiu said slowly: "I have discussed with His Majesty that in October this year, the 7th, 8th, and 93rd Jin Holy Army will The large army will march to Chuzhou.”
“Early next year, stationed in Jinyang！”
Both Lu Jiangyin and Wang Huang were shocked. The Jin Holy Army was the most elite army of the Jin Empire. It was the Yulin Army.！
It is divided into nine legions, totaling 90,000 people..
It doesn't sound like much, but you need to know that every sergeant of the Jin Holy Army is a top-notch master, and they are the most elite and powerful army in the entire world..
The leader of every legion is a master.！
Mobilize three armies to defeat an army of millions.
“In November of this year, the King of Bei will lead Yuanzhou with 100,000 cavalrymen unable to dismount..”
“In March next year, 60,000 Minzhou navy will go north and merge with 60,000 Chuzhou navy. A total of 120,000 navy will enter Jiangzhou along the river." Dongwang Jinjiu said: "When the army gathers and the masters gather, it is planned to do so in June next year. Before that, launch the "Battle of Dingjiang", go down the Yunjiang River, attack Yunshan City, and then attack Jiudong City to completely pacify Jiangdong..”
“In this battle, 'Wu Chenggong' will be the commander！”
Lu Jiangyin and Wang Huang completely understood.
Ten years after the Battle of Hengshan, the empire is about to start another war to destroy the country..
The Northern King of the Jin Dynasty is the 'pillar' of the royal family no less than the Eastern King, and he is also a great master..
One hundred thousand Yuanzhou cavalry, the weakest one is also a martial artist.
There are 120,000 navy troops to suppress Chuzhou and Minzhou. More than half of them are martial arts masters, who are equally elite..
In addition to the Jin Empire's "Eastern Expedition Army" in Jiangzhou, the total number is 80,000..
A joint army of 300,000 elite troops.
Coupled with the 30,000 Jin Holy Army pressing down on the formation, this is definitely a terrifying force capable of destroying a sect and destroying a country..
Army duel？
Even if the two major forces of Hengyun Sect and Baijiang King were combined, they would not be able to match such a large army..
Moreover, once multiple armies gather together, there will be more than ten masters alone.
Most importantly, Lu Jiangyin and Wang Huang heard that the commander of the army was not the King of the East or the King of the North, but - Wu Chenggong！
Forty years ago, the Chu River was destroyed！
Thirty years ago, the three kingdoms of Nanzhou were conquered and completely destroyed.！
Fifteen years ago, 80,000 horsemen set foot on Xizhou, marched 16,000 miles, forced all the tribes of Xizhou to surrender, and returned in triumph, completely solving the two-hundred-year-old scourge of the Western Frontier of the Jin Dynasty..
Recognized as the number one coach in the world and the God of War in the Jin Dynasty！
In the Jin Dynasty, he and his country had the same status as a first-class duke. He could enter the palace without taking off his armor and see the king without paying homage. This is the ultimate example of a true minister..
In terms of force, it ranks second in the "District Ranking"！
Named Gong, actually King！
Not to mention the King of the North and the King of the East, even the Emperor of Jin would stand up and respectfully call him "General Lan" when he saw him.’.
“Is it really Mr. Wu Chenggong? "Lu Jiangyin couldn't help but ask.
It's really shocking.
“Of course." Dongwang Jinjiu said calmly: "This is a top secret and must not be leaked. You just need to know that the battle of Dingjiang will be a battle that will overwhelm the country..”
“Jiangzhou was pacified, and the unification of the Central Plains was mostly completed.”
“If this battle is defeated...it will be difficult to fight again in thirty years." Dongwang Jinjiu said: "So, don't care what the Hengyun Sect thinks..”
“what you have to do.”
“That is, before the war, eliminate the future threats from the Hengyun Sect and even the Baijiang King one by one..”
“I understand." Lu Jiangyin and Wang Huang both said..
“Wang Huang." Jin Jiu looked at the purple-robed old man and said solemnly: "This time, if you can successfully kill Wu Yuan, I will definitely go to His Majesty and reward you with 30 million for your merits..”
Draw a big pie and make a promise.
Only then can your subordinates do their best.
“Thirty million credits? "The purple-robed old man's eyes lit up..
They worked hard for the Jin Dynasty, naturally not because of how loyal they were..
Profit is the first priority. In exchange for a set of magical skills, it is 100 million credits.
It only costs 60,000 credits to exchange for a drop of ancient immortal dew. You can imagine how generous this reward is..
“OK.”
“Now that the plan has been decided, you should make arrangements as soon as possible." Jin Jiu said softly: "I also want to go to Hengshan City to meet Chen Luo..”
soon.
Dongwang Jinjiu leaves.
Only two masters remain.
“Second brother, do you really plan to go? "Lu Jiangyin frowned and said.
“Brother, this is 30 million credits." Wang Huang said excitedly: "Once it is completed, I will not be far away from getting a set of 'immortal skills'..”
“Second brother, calm down！”
Lu Jiangyin shook his head: "Although immortal skills are good, you still have to have a life to get them. You killed Wu Yuan, and the news cannot be hidden forever.".”
“Wu Yuan is the hope of Hengyun Sect. Whoever dares to extinguish this hope will fight to the death with Hengyun Sect..”
“Whoever goes will be targeted by Bu Yu, Huan Jian and the others." Lu Jiangyin said: "Otherwise, why do you think no one dares to accept the bounty mission?？”
Lu Jiangyin has a very thorough understanding of this point..
“In the battle to pacify Jiangzhou, we will have to deal with them sooner or later." Wang Huang said: "Brother, there is no need to worry..”
“snort！”
“Hengyun Sect has been standing in Jiangzhou for hundreds of years, and its methods are unpredictable. If nothing else, once Bu Yu fights for her life, are you willing to trade lives with her?？”
Lu Jiangyin snorted coldly: "Then Jin Jiu is still sitting in Jinyang? Let us not worry? Huh! If there is really no danger, why doesn't he go there himself?？”
Wang Huang also calmed down.
“Brother, what should I do? "Wang Huang couldn't help but said.
“The power of the Jin Dynasty to dominate the world is unstoppable. What we seek is glory and glory. Naturally, we must follow the strongest, but we can let others chew on us." Lu Jiangyin said: "Jin Jiu named you to go. You must go..”
Wang Huang nodded.
“Wu Yuan, don't touch him easily.”
“You lead the team and bring a few top experts to assassinate." Lu Jiangyin said softly: "It's just a success, all the credit is for nothing..”
“At that time, we will make a big fanfare and publicize that it was those top masters who killed Wu Yuan. We don’t want to attract the hatred of Hengyun Sect..”
“If the assassination fails, there is no need to worry about those top experts..”
“Go directly to Xu Hui！”
Lu Jiangyin smiled and said: "This is also a threat.”
“Killing him wouldn't make the two old guys from Hengyun Sect go crazy, but it would still be enough to give Jin Jiu a try..”
Wang Huang's eyes lit up: "Brother is wise..”
……
Yunshan Mansion, Yunshan.
After the annual competition, Wu Yuan swept through the Yunwu Hall disciples with a near-invincible attitude, and then passed through the second floor of the 'Hengtian Pavilion'.
The reputation in Yunwu Palace has reached its peak..
at the same time.
The display of strength that was comparable to that of a first-class master also shocked the entire sect, and soon there were calls for.
To promote Wu Yuan from a true disciple to a true disciple of Tianwu’.
Not only the top masters and first-class masters from the Caigong Hall, but also the Teaching Hall have spoken out.
However, they were all suppressed by the Supreme Being.
Wu Yuan's rapid growth and the news spread shocked all parties, and undercurrents surged..
but.
These sounds have no effect on Wu Yuan at all.
He is still practicing step by step.
More than ten days after the annual competition, Wu Yuancai and Shi Shiran came to the Caigong Hall and met Elder Huan..
“elder.”
“I came to see you for two things." Wu Yuan smiled and said: "First, I applied to participate in a trial mission..”
For the disciples of Yunwu Hall, especially the disciples of the Upper House, the sect will arrange various trial tasks..
The sect’s training of disciples is not about growing flowers in a greenhouse just to look beautiful..
The ultimate goal is to fight and fight！
Without going through life and death, without going through hardships, even if you are strong and skilled, you will probably only be able to exert 30% to 50% of your 100% strength..
“Trial mission？”
Elder Huan frowned at first, then nodded and said: "Well, your Majesty has told me that I will notify you when there is a suitable task.".”
“After all, regular guard missions and patrol missions are not suitable for you..”
Wu Yuan couldn't help but nodded..
Trial missions are not all about fighting and killing. Like 'Huan Xinyan', who is a teacher in the martial arts academy, it is a kind of trial..
Just like becoming a civil servant and military commander in a prefecture and a county, it is also a trial..
“What else? Elder Huan said.
“Go down the mountain and go home to celebrate the New Year." Wu Yuan said.
“Go down the mountain？”
Elder Huan looked at Wu Yuan and said in a low voice: "Wu Yuan, do you know that you have broken through the second floor of Hengtian Pavilion, and now, the attention of all forces on you will only be higher..”
“I know." Wu Yuan said calmly..
“Then you still want to go down the mountain? "Elder Huan frowned.
“Elder, I now have the strength of a first-class master, and I have some ability to protect myself." Wu Yuan shook his head and said: "But even if I become a top master, a master master can still kill me, is it possible that I will never go down the mountain?？”
Elder Huan was speechless.
“Elder, don’t worry, Yunshan Mansion is quite safe. Even top masters, few dare to assassinate in the east of the city." Wu Yuan said: "Moreover, I will use Yi Gu to go down the mountain, and will not enter the mansion with a big fanfare..”
“Not many people know.”
“Elder, after spending three to five days at most with your family, you will return to the mountain." Wu Yuan said with a smile..
“Okay, then you have to be careful." Elder Huan could only nod..
Farewell to Elder Huan.
Wu Yuan walks on the road.
“Assassination? Wu Yuan shook his head slightly and said with a smile: "It's okay if there is no assassination. If you come to assassinate, it will save a lot of effort.".”
Notice.
In the last battle at Yunjiang, the bloody mist Wu Yuan obtained has been almost exhausted in the past six months..
Just need to add.
Stayed in Yunshan for another two days.
It wasn't until the day before the New Year that Wu Yuan used Yi Gu and left Yunshan silently..
……
After entering Yunshan City, Wu Yuan first walked along the street..
The bustling streets and alleys made Wu Yuan, who had long been accustomed to tranquility, feel a lot of excitement in his heart..
“pyrotechnics.”
Wu Yuan wandered around casually, watching the vendors and passers-by bargaining in the streets and alleys, and couldn't help but smile: "A sea of people is the peace of the people, and the bustling traffic is the world.".”
Wu Yuan traveled thousands of miles across Jiangzhou.
He passed through the Yuanhu Mansion under the rule of Yuanhu Villa, passed through the Nanyun Mansion under the rule of King Baijiang, and even went to the Dalong Mansion where human lives were like grass and grass and the chaos was extremely chaotic..
“Comparatively speaking, under the rule of Hengyun Sect, ordinary people are treated well." Wu Yuan has seen the light and also knows the darkness..
If we say that we are practicing hard in the mountains, eating Qi, and refining Qi, it means being out of the world and out of the world..
It will make practitioners feel that "the world is vast and my life is short". Then, occasionally come to the city and immerse yourself in the sightseeing..
It is to bring the soul back to the world again！
that's all.
After walking around for a while and buying a lot of gifts for his mother and sister, Wu Yuan returned to his normal appearance and entered the Wu Mansion through the side door.’.
‘The news that the young master had returned to the house quickly spread throughout the house..
However, everyone in the mansion strictly ordered that the news should not be spread outside, so even the nearby mansions did not know about Wu Yuan's return..
I met my mother and sister.
night falls.
In the house to the east, on the second floor, Wu Yuan sat quietly here, with a thought in his mind, his thoughts spread in all directions involuntarily..
Countless information pours into the brain！
Everything in a radius of more than a hundred meters was shrouded in Wu Yuan's spiritual thoughts, including his family, clan members, and many maids and attendants..
Everything is under his clear perception.
“Divine thoughts are really magical. Is this the method that the Qi Refiners use to control them? "Wu Yuan sighed secretly.
Every time he uses his spiritual thoughts, he feels magical.
The Qi Refiner is a dimension-reducing blow to the warrior..
“Elder Zhang, the master of the ancient palace, is really dedicated." Wu Yuan's spiritual mind clearly sensed.
Only about a hundred meters away, on both sides of Wu Mansion.
There are two masters with extremely strong vitality, each stationed on one side..
In the dark night, invisible.
But in Wu Yuan's perception, the two of them were as dazzling as fire.！
Top master! two persons！
And Wu Yuan has seen it before.
One is 'Elder Zhang Chang' of Junwu Hall, the thirty-fourth person in Jiangzhou.！
One, Gu Wang, the master of the Supervisory Palace, is the fourth in Jiangzhou people list, and is also the master closest to the master level in Hengyun Sect..
It is clear.
After Elder Huan agreed to Wu Yuan's descent from the mountain, he quickly reported it to Emperor Yu, who ordered two top masters to secretly follow and protect Wu Yuan..
In fact, Wu Yuan sensed their presence on the way down the mountain..
“During the Chinese New Year, let the two top masters stay here alone." Wu Yuan sighed secretly, and also felt a trace of apology..
But can't explain it.
……In the blink of an eye, three days have passed and the new year has begun..
Wu Yuan, in addition to his normal daily practice, rarely spent time with his family, and spent a lively year.
Snow falls again.
Like catkins floating in the air, the temperature suddenly dropped. As night fell, every household closed their doors..
Except for the occasional sergeant patrolling by, the street was quiet..
“Whoosh! "Whoosh"！”
“Whoosh！”
In the darkness, several figures braved the wind and snow, dodged past the buildings, carefully slipped through the streets, and entered the east area of the city..
Finally, we entered an empty room.
“Here, it is only three miles away from the Wu Mansion." The burly 'Wang Huang' was shrouded in a black robe, with only a pair of eyes exposed..
“According to the inside information obtained, Wu Yuan has returned to the house and should now be living on the second floor of the small building on the east side of the house..”
“But I understand." Wang Huang glanced at the three figures in front of him..
“yes！”
The three figures nodded one after another.
“Go for it! Kill Wu Yuan! "Wang Huang waved his hand.
The three people who had already changed into their "night clothes" opened the window, quietly floated down the window, and quickly headed towards the Wu Mansion..
