Jing Yan's speed suddenly exploded, and his figure was like a flash of lightning.
With the support of Sky Wings, the threat of Zhan Yue Sword Technique has far exceeded the threat it should have.
No matter how rich the fighting experience and how flexible Ye Xiao was, he was still a little overwhelmed.
"Clang!"
"Keng Keng!" Ye Xiao tried his best to resist.
Before fighting, he would never have expected that a half-step innate realm warrior would be so strong.
Now he knows, but it seems to be too late.
Jing Yan unleashed three swords in a row. Ye Xiao barely blocked the first two swords, but he couldn't defend the third sword.
The crescent moon sword light condensed by Zhanyue sword technique directly defeated Ye Xiao's martial arts.
"Pfft!" The sound of the blade piercing into the flesh followed.
At the last moment, Ye Xiao also gave up resisting. He knew that he could not avoid or block the third sword, and it was even more impossible to escape.
As a qualified killer, Ye Xiao had thought more than once about which mission he would die in. It can be said that he had long been prepared for death.
He just couldn't predict that he would die at the hands of a young warrior who was half a step innate.
Ye Xiao is just a martial artist in the early stage of the innate state. In terms of frontal strength, he is probably comparable to Jing Tianlong. His most frightening method is still sneak attack and assassination.
Once detected in advance, he is much less of a threat.
And Jing Yan was able to defeat Jing Tianlong when he hadn't stepped into the half-step innate, let alone now he has officially stepped into the half-step innate, and practiced the sky-defying martial art of Wings of the Sky.
Even if the two Ye Xiao join forces, they may not be able to pose too much threat to Jing Yan.
Of course, if Jing Yan couldn't sense the crisis in advance, the result would be hard to say. After all, even the physical body of a martial artist in the innate realm cannot stop the damage of a sharp blade.
"Say, who sent you here?" Jing Yan withdrew his Liuguang sword, then looked at Ye Xiao and asked.
"hehe… "
Blood continued to ooze from the corner of Ye Xiao's mouth, and he let out a weird laugh.
Then, his body fell straight backwards, lifeless.
"Dark night!" Jing Yan's eyes narrowed, looking at the medal pattern on Ye Xiao's chest.
Jing Yan knew that this was the symbol of a killer organization codenamed 'Dark Night'. In the past, Jing Yan had no direct contact with this killer organization, so he didn't know much about it, only heard about it.
Unexpectedly, now the killer of the dark night actually found himself.
Of course, Jing Yan understood that the Dark Night Organization would not want to assassinate him for no reason, there must be an employer who hired the Dark Night killer behind the scenes.
So who exactly hired them
"Bronze Medal!"
"Although it's only at the Bronze level, the price required to hire such a killer is not small. The general power definitely cannot afford it!" Jing Yan narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Moreover, ordinary forces and individuals can't contact this killer organization at all!"
Jing Yan could probably guess the identity of the employer behind the killer.
He knew that in Donglin City, there might be quite a few forces and individuals who wanted him to die. However, in order to kill himself, he would not hesitate to hire the killer of the dark night, the biggest possibility is the Zhao family!
"The Zhao family!" Jing Yan bit his teeth.
The current Jing Yan, of course, cannot shake such a behemoth as the Zhao family!
"It seems that I need to speed up my cultivation!" Jing Yan said in a low voice.
The failure of this assassination certainly cannot dispel the Zhao family's idea of killing Jing Yan. In other words, as long as Jing Yan survives, he may have to face the assassins of the An Ye organization for a long time to come.
The stronger he is, the greater his chance of survival!
"Jing Yan!"
At this time, Tian Shui suddenly came out of the Qiankun Ring.
"Senior Tianshui?" Jing Yan was a little surprised.
"There is one thing that you may need to know." Tian Shui was more dignified than ever. He used to be called Jing Yan because he was a kid or a brat, but this time he was called Jing Yan.
Jing Yan also looked at Tian Shui suspiciously.
"Your grandfather's death is also related to these killers." Tian Shui looked at Jing Yan.
"What?" Jing Yan's eyes froze.
"Senior, what's going on here?" Jing Yan's breath became short of breath.
He always thought that his grandfather was seriously injured and died because he failed to break through the realm and suffered the backlash of vitality. At that time, Jing Yan's grandfather, Jing Tian, indeed told Jing Yan that.
But now, Tian Shui told Jing Yan that the death of his grandfather Jing Tian was related to these dark night killers.
"I only understand part of the matter. After all, I was still in a deep sleep at that time. I only know that your grandfather was seriously injured in a fierce battle with a warrior wearing this costume. As for why they wanted to kill your grandfather, I don't know." Tian Shui shook his head slightly and said.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Jing Yan gritted his teeth, his eyes frightening.
Jing Yan's grandfather was once the most powerful member of the Jing family. He was already at the peak of the innate realm, and he was only one step away from stepping into the Taoist realm.
It can be said that if Sedum does not die, then the Jing family will be able to sit on an equal footing with the Zhao family, the first family in Donglin City, in a short time.
"Well, don't blame me!" Tian Shui said, "Think about it, why didn't your grandfather tell you the real cause of his death?"
Jing Yan felt a lump of air in his chest as if it was about to explode.
The boundless anger seemed to burst out of his body! Jing Yan has never been so angry.
Even after his realm fell, he was subjected to all kinds of difficulties and humiliation, and he had never been so angry.
His hands were tightly clenched, and he didn't even feel that his nails were digging into the flesh and oozing blood.
However, he didn't lose his mind, and when his thoughts changed slightly, he knew why his grandfather didn't tell him the truth.
If I knew that my grandfather was assassinated, I would definitely try to get revenge, and with my own strength, no matter if I went to the Dark Night Organization or the employer who hired the killer, I would hit the stone with an egg and never end well.
Another one is that if he is bent on revenge, it is likely to affect his cultivation.
The reason why Tian Shui has not said this matter may also be due to this consideration.
"Alas!" Tian Shui sighed again when he saw Jing Yan gradually calm down.
"Jing Yan, although we can't confirm the employer, we can't guess. I think the reason why your grandfather was assassinated may be because he could break through to the Dao Spiritual Realm at any time. And once your grandfather breaks through to the Dao Spiritual Realm, which force in the entire Donglin City will be most threatened?" Tian Shui said slowly.
"The Zhao family!" Jing Yan growled angrily.
"Well, so, the employer who hired a killer to assassinate your grandfather may be the same force as the employer who hired a killer to assassinate you, both of the Zhao family. Of course, even if it is confirmed that it was the Zhao family who did it, you still cannot take revenge. Your current strength is still too weak. The patriarch of the Zhao family should be a Dao Lingjing warrior, right? If you want revenge, you must at least have the innate peak strength to have any hope." Tian Shui squinted his eyes.
