Whoosh~
The sharp sword light, carrying a terrifying murderous intent, shot towards Yang Qi.
Facing the incoming sword, a solemn look appeared on Yang Qi's face. With a thought, Qinghong appeared in his hand, and then he stabbed with the long sword to meet the incoming sword light.
Just as the attacking sword light was about to be blocked, the sword light suddenly turned, avoiding Yang Qi's attack and shooting towards Yang Qi.
"What?"
Yang Qi's face suddenly changed. The opponent had clearly already used his moves. How could he change them at the last minute
The direction of the sword light suddenly changed, which was beyond Yang Qi's expectations. Facing the incoming sword, he only had time to swing the Qinghong Sword to protect himself.
Ding~
The sword light fell, and a crisp sound of metal was heard, followed by a strange force that came like a wave, constantly hitting Yang Qi.
The blood in his body surged, and Yang Qi actually had a feeling that he couldn't suppress. After entering the Martial Lord realm, Yang Qi's physical body had improved. Although the strange power was strong, it couldn't break through Yang Qi's physical defense, and only made him feel uncomfortable.
"What a strange power." Suppressing the surging blood, Yang Qi's expression became stern, and he looked at the man in black not far away.
"You're okay?"
The man in black looked at the unharmed Yang Qi, with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He was extremely confident in his attack. An ordinary two-star martial master would probably be seriously injured by this sword.
Even though Yang Qi is extremely talented, intelligence shows that Yang Qi's strength is only that of a two-star martial arts master, and it is impossible for him to block this sword!
"Yang Qi!" The fight between the two sides happened in a flash. By the time Yun Lan and Liu Fei came to their senses, the two had already started fighting.
"Return to Wanxiang Building!"
Realizing that Yun Lan and the other two wanted to come forward to help him, Yang Qi's face changed and he quickly sent a message.
The black-clothed man's strength is much stronger than Xiang Yun's back then, and each of his moves is a killing move, which is simply beyond the ability of Yun Lan and Liu Fei to resist. Once the two are targeted by the black-clothed man, they are likely to die.
Yun Lan was in a state of confusion due to her concern, but after hearing Yang Qi's message, she immediately calmed down and hurriedly said to Liu Fei, "Let's go back to Wanxiang Building first. If we rush forward like this, we will not only fail to help Yang Qi, but will become a burden to him."
"Damn it." Liu Fei said angrily, but she understood that what Yun Lan said was true. The two of them only had the fighting power of a Martial Lord. Facing a two-star Martial Lord, not only would they not be able to help Yang Qi, but they would become a burden to Yang Qi, restricting Yang Qi's hands and feet.
Whoosh~ Whoosh~
Yun Lan and the other person did not dare to stay and quickly flew towards the Wanxiang Tower behind them. The Wanxiang Tower had the strength of a super power, and the owner of the Wanxiang Tower, who was stationed in the imperial capital, was a powerful man at the peak of martial arts.
The man in black had already noticed that Yun Lan and the other man were rushing towards Wanxiang Tower, but he had no intention of stopping them. His target was Yang Qi from the beginning!
Yang Qi looked at the man in black not far away with a vigilant look on his face, and asked in a deep voice, "Did the Church of Light or the Holy Sword Sect invite you here?"
The man in black in front of him was obviously a practitioner who was proficient in assassination. He was most likely from a killer organization and not a practitioner from the Church of Light or the Holy Sword Sect.
"You don't need to know this." The man in black smiled coldly, and his figure flashed, as fast as lightning, and he came in front of Yang Qi in an instant. The dark gray dagger in his hand brought up a black light and slashed towards Yang Qi.
Whoosh~
A sharp black light attacked, and Yang Qi's face darkened. In the black light, he actually felt a strong threat. If he was hit by this sword, even with his body at the level of a mid-grade Yuan soldier, he would be injured.
Wow~
The Qinghong Sword shook, and in an instant it turned into twelve sword shadows, forming a formation to protect Yang Qi firmly. After experiencing the previous fight, Yang Qi did not dare to guarantee whether the opponent could suddenly change his tactics again. If he attacked, once the opponent changed his tactics, he would be in a very unfavorable situation!
Therefore, facing this sword, Yang Qi directly chose to defend and used the strongest defensive sword formation!
"Bang~"
The black light fell and hit the sword formation fiercely. Suddenly, the entire sword formation trembled violently, as if it was about to break, but it finally blocked the black light.
As he entered the Martial Honor Realm, the power of the Tianyuan Sword Formation also increased. With Yang Qi's full defense, even an ordinary two-star Martial Honor peak practitioner would not be able to break his defense.
Whoosh~
The man in black looked at Yang Qi deeply, then his body flashed, and in the blink of an eye he rushed into the street and disappeared.
"Withdrawn?"
Looking at the man in black who was leaving, Yang Qi could not help but be slightly stunned. From the time the man in black appeared to now, the two sides had only exchanged three moves. In these three moves, Yang Qi did not have any upper hand. Even if he continued to fight, he could not guarantee that he could defeat the man in black.
"If he misses the first strike, he will immediately flee far away. This is truly the style of a killer." Yang Qi's eyes focused, and he became more and more certain in his heart that the man in black he met this time was a killer!
The killer in front of them retreated, and Yun Lan and Liu Fei, who had returned to Wanxiang Building, rushed out hurriedly.
"Yang Qi, are you okay?" Liu Fei asked hurriedly.
Yang Qi said with a look of fear, "I'm fine. Fortunately, I found out early, otherwise I might have been tricked by the killer."
The killer's frontal fighting skills were not necessarily very strong. What really made Yang Qi feel a life-and-death crisis was the first attack from the man in black. Yang Qi almost got hit.
"The killer should be from the Black Wind Palace." Yun Lan said solemnly.
"Black Wind Palace?"
Yang Qi was stunned. He knew nothing about the Black Wind Palace that Yun Lan mentioned.
“The Black Wind Palace is a killer organization. It is said that its history is even longer than some of the current superpowers. In history, a Martial King was born there. Even now, in terms of strength alone, it is at the top level among the first-class forces.” Yun Lan said in a deep voice.
Is the Black Wind Palace so powerful
Yang Qi's face changed slightly. First-rate forces all have high-level martial masters in charge. Some powerful first-rate forces have quite a few high-level martial masters. Even first-rate forces that were once super forces but have declined have also given birth to powerful martial kings in history!
“The assassins of the Black Wind Palace are the best in the entire Zichen Continent. It’s not easy to recruit them.” Yun Lan said.
"Needless to say, the ones who invited the Black Wind Palace must be the Church of Light or the Holy Sword Sect, or even both of them!" Liu Fei snorted coldly.
The practitioners of the Church of Light and the Holy Sword Sect were so special. Not to mention that almost all of their disciples were Saint Roni, more importantly, the Church of Light and the Holy Sword Sect, strictly speaking, were both sects that specialized in one path. The Church of Light practiced with faith, while the Holy Sword Sect practiced with the sword. Once the practitioners of the two sides made a move, they would probably be recognized instantly.
It would be fine if the two superpowers secretly took action against Yang Qi, but if they did it openly, they would become a joke on the Zichen Continent. It would not be strange to ask assassins to take action. Whether they succeeded or not, it would not affect their reputation. (To be continued)
