On her chest, the ancient compass was emitting a icy chill, which directly invaded her heart, making her feel the existence of the killing intent. Could it be that the throbbing feeling just now was also released by this compass
It turned out that it was the weirdness of the compass. Mu Hanyan didn't take out the compass to investigate the reason, but adjusted his breathing, and then tensed every nerve.
The killing intent kept approaching, and with all his attention, Mu Hanyan vaguely heard the almost inaudible footsteps. Obviously, some masters sneaked into the city lord's mansion and came straight to her room. More importantly, Mu Hanyan had already felt his will to kill.
Who is it? Could it be the Zhao family? Those who wanted her life in the early stage should not have noticed her existence. At present, the so-called enemy is only the fourth lady of the Zhao family, who may want to deal with her. But the level of grievances between her and Miss Zhao's family is not enough for her family to take such a risk. Because even if she is ineffective, she is still the eldest son of the City Lord's Mansion in name? Isn't the Zhao family afraid that things will be revealed and the family will be wiped out? For this grievance, the Zhao family would not take such a risk. Besides, this is the city lord's mansion. With the strength of the Zhao family, it seems that no one can sneak in so quietly.
Not from the Zhao family.
Who the hell would it be
In an instant, Mu Hanyan's mind turned a thousand times, but he couldn't think of an answer, so he temporarily hid his doubts in his heart. Now is not the time to think about this question. From the inaudible footsteps and the chilling killing intent, she can guess that the opponent's strength is far superior to hers. Even if she calls for help now, the opponent can Hurry up and put her to death before the guards from the palace arrive.
If you want to survive, you can only rely on yourself.
Mu Hanyan got out of bed slowly, pulled the quilt out of a human shape, pretended that she was still sleeping, then stepped back to the side of the window, held her breath, bent down and held the sword, and put on the best shot preparation.
With the strength of the opponent, a rookie who sneaked in and assassinated a first-level swordsman should be somewhat underestimating the enemy.
This should be an opportunity, but it is also the only opportunity. After all, the difference in strength is too great. No matter how powerful she used to be, she is only a first-rank swordsman now. After that tragic change, she has already washed away her pomp and become much calmer than before.
Closer, closer!
"Crack", with a soft sound, a black shadow broke through the window, and the long sword in his hand shed a cold light, stabbing directly at the disguised figure on the bed.
Mu Hanyan's eyes lit up, just as she expected, the other party did not pay much attention to her as a first-rank swordsman. Once he found the target, he delivered a fatal blow without hesitation. Not only did he not deliberately conceal the sword light, he even didn't carefully identify her position.
Of course, Mu Hanyan would not miss this unique opportunity. At the moment the opponent flew in, he slanted his sword and stabbed towards the opponent's lower body from bottom to top.
This sword is so ingenious, so fast, and of course, so vicious.
There is no way, the gap in strength is really too big, it is bigger than her earlier estimate, there is not even a one in ten thousand chance of not being vicious at all.
It wasn't until this time that Mu Hanyan realized the opponent's strength. The existence of the tenth-rank swordsman, known as the great swordsman, was much less panicked than her father who was the lord of the Black Rock City. Mu Hanyan even started to regret it. If he had known that the other party had such strength, he shouldn't have any illusions at all, and the chance of saving his life might be a little better if he ran away.
Unfortunately, until now, there is no chance to regret it.
