If you mess with the devil, it's over!

Arriving at a distance of about seven feet from the city tower, I looked at the lazy patrolling soldiers on the city defense, and then looked above my head. At the moment when the dark clouds covered the full moon, a little bit of cold air spread between my eyebrows, and I jumped over these soldiers.

They arrived outside the city gate without making any sound. It was really unnoticed.

"Tsk, why did such a cold gust of wind suddenly blow..." A soldier guarding the city gate crossed his arms with both hands and trembled.

Because this time was during the curfew period and the interrogation was extremely strict, Yu Xi was naturally not allowed to go out through the main entrance in a big way. Moreover, if these people saw him dressed like this, it would definitely cause a commotion and cause all kinds of unnecessary trouble.

So that's all he can do, and this is his most common method.

Arriving outside the city, Yu Xi walked a hundred meters around the city very skillfully. As an assassin, his night vision ability was excellent. He had undergone special training and was soaked in elixirs.

From what he looked at, there was a black horse under a big tree in front of him. It was hairless and very tall. It was obvious at a glance that it was a BMW.

Without any hesitation, Yu Xi jumped on the horse's back, clamped his feet on the horse's belly, and the horse, being humane, spread its four hooves and galloped forward.

.................

Fugao City, also called the Imperial City by Xiliang people, was the capital of the Jin Dynasty and was known as the location of the Phoenix Vein and the place where the Phoenix flourished.

In the ancient imperial city, the extremely spacious and extremely luxurious palace is located in the city. Even though it is night, you can still see those murderous golden-armored guards patrolling.

In the main hall, the golden pillars are carved with golden divine phoenixes soaring in the sky. The red spiritual energy hovers above the palace, gathering, spreading out, and converging again. It seems that there is really a divine phoenix guarding the entire palace. Magnificent royal palace.

If a person with a low cultivation level comes here, waves of heart-stopping oppression will sweep over the whole body. Deep in the palace, several terrifying auras are looming, seeming to be illusory hallucinations, but also seeming to be real.

However, in a block in the south of the city, the same was true in a royal palace. A frightening aura lingered in a study.

But strangely, such a breath is only limited to the small space of the study, and no breath leaks from the room. On the surface, the entire palace seems to be nothing special except for luxury.

There were only two guards guarding the door. In the courtyard, that is, outside the study, there was only a woman in purple. No one could be seen in the entire Nuo Da palace.

In the study, a woman in white clothes slowly opened her closed eyes. Dark purple mist was billowing in her deep pupils, and black light was surging around her body.

This horrifying aura emanated from her body.

The woman looks to be about twenty-two or thirty years old. She has long black hair that is not tied loosely. A large part of her long hair is scattered behind her. Her eyes are slightly raised. Her white clothes are spotless. Her eyebrows are light and dark. The ink-like eyes were like the dim starry sky, and the cold temperament seemed to repel people thousands of miles away, making people dare not approach.

This person is none other than the princess of the Jin Dynasty, Qi Lan.

She is also the only daughter of the current reigning emperor of Jin Dynasty.

Qi Lan stood up, put his hands behind his back, and took two steps forward. The originally closed door seemed to be pushed open by an invisible force at this time.

"master."

The woman in purple standing guard outside the door suddenly felt a cold wind coming from behind, and quickly turned around to salute the visitor.

"How's the situation?" Qi Lan didn't look at her, but looked at the full moon above his head and said calmly.

"There is no movement at Xixiang Sect. The subordinates have already handled the matter according to the master's wishes without leaving any traces."

"Well, there is one more thing you need to take care of together. I don't want to see those old people doubting me in the future. Deal with it!" Qi Lan said this very calmly.

But what she heard in the purple-clothed woman's ears made her tremble involuntarily.

Naturally, she understood what Qi Lan meant, which was to kill Zhao Nan.

And this Zhao Nan is the traitor of the Xiwang Sect that has been rumored by the outside world. In fact, this person has been Qi Lan's from the beginning to the end. To be precise, he is a chess piece.

A slightly useful chess piece. After getting what he wanted, only by getting rid of her would there be no trace of the matter. Qi Lan didn't want those in the Xiwang Sect to doubt him in the future.

Although she is not afraid, it is still a trouble.

"Yes." The woman in purple agreed and walked away.

On the other side, a fast horse galloped in the dark night, passing through a dense forest on a trail, and Yu Xi finally arrived at his destination, Fugao Imperial City, at the fourth watch of the day.

Looking at the tall city walls and the heavily guarded city defenses in front of him, Yu Xi jumped off his horse not too far from the city gate.

The tall city walls and soldiers could not stop him. He lifted up his face towel. During the short interval between the guards changing guard, Yu Xi jumped onto the city wall, and then quickly plunged into a blind corner where the moonlight could not shine. Landed smoothly in a small alley.

Taking out the map and confirming his destination again, he headed straight towards the palace.

In less than a moment, Yu Xi came to a rooftop not far from the palace.

"This is it." Yu Xi looked at the majestic building in front of him and leaped to the roof of the palace.

At this time, his position belonged to the living room. Logically speaking, it was already this time, and the target should be in the backyard. However, he had his own professional ethics, so he still removed the tiles and took a look at the living room.

He didn't sneak into the backyard until he confirmed that no one was there.

For some reason, Yu Xi always feels a little uneasy inside.

Quiet, too quiet. Logically speaking, a palace, and a place where a princess lives, cannot be so quiet even on the fourth watch.

This made him very energetic, and his body and mind suddenly became tense.

Looking around the surrounding environment, Yu Xi focused all his attention on one room, because the other rooms were dark, but this room only had a faint firelight coming from it.

Using the wall next to the room, he jumped up to the room with firelight coming from the window.

Still in his usual style, he reached out and gently picked up a tile, observing the situation inside first.

Looking around, when he saw a woman in white with extraordinary temperament meditating on the bed,

Yu Xi's pupils narrowed slightly. He was sure that this woman should be his target, but why did this person practice without any aura fluctuations.

There are only two possibilities, either this guy is too weak, or he is too strong.

Yu Xi is more convinced of the first possibility, because this woman is very young, probably only a few years older than herself.

It is impossible to practice like those old monsters without aura fluctuations.
