Chapter 188: Chasing in the Inn
After listening to Feng Hanyun's description, Jin Yan touched her chin and said, "Appeared out of thin air? How long has he been in office?"
Feng Hanyun thought for a moment and said, "It should have been some time. This person already existed when the current emperor ascended the throne."
Jin Yan pondered Du Beizhe's identity, and felt that there was something wrong with him. "This person...cannot be trusted. His strategic ability is real, and his identity seems real. He should have been the king for more than a hundred years. He also looks young, so he must be a cultivator, and his cultivation is definitely not inferior to you and me."
Feng Hanyun frowned, "I heard that he does have some cultivation skills, but no one knows what level he has reached. It is said that he has never shown his cultivation skills in front of others."
The more Jin Yan thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, but he couldn't figure it out for a while, so he could only give up, "Forget it, don't think about him for now. Instead of doubting him again, it's better to wait for the king's arrangement."
[If he wants their plan to go on smoothly, he must let the king reject my suggestion. If the king rejects my suggestion, the seeds of doubt will be planted in the king's heart. It's good if he doesn't do evil. If he does evil, the king will have a way to deal with him. No matter what, I won't lose.]
[But I am still worried about Jin Xi. She is still young, and General Xu beside her is just an imperial guard. If something goes wrong, and she encounters a master like Du Beizhe, General Xu will not be able to protect Jin Xi. It will be difficult for her to protect herself in the chaotic scene of Daqing.]
[I have to think of a way to avoid tragedy.]
Feng Hanyun suddenly felt the fluctuation of spiritual energy nearby, and immediately stood up to extinguish the burning candle, held Jin Yan tightly in his arms, and made a gesture to keep quiet.
As the murderous aura around him grew closer, Jin Yan finally recovered from his shock.
I felt several people were just outside the door.
[No wonder the doors of several rooms in the inn were closed. It turned out that someone had ambushed this inn in advance. It seems that there are people behind the scenes even in Phoenix Pavilion. ]
The two men hid beside the door and saw with their own eyes the bolt inside the door being pried open by the weapon that was stretched in. Just as the door was gently pushed open, the two men attacked at the same time, one person each, and instantly strangled the person who had just stepped into the room by the neck. Before they could even make a sound, they had already turned into two corpses.
Then, the people behind him reacted and rushed in with weapons raised.
The two men showed no sign of weakness and started fighting in the small space in the corridor of the inn.
Even with more people, they were no match for the strength of Feng Jin and the other two. The two of them turned their backs to each other, and even though they were surrounded, they were still able to withstand the attack.
Seeing a steady stream of people rushing out of the guest room, the two men fought and retreated until they were out of the inn. The broken window fell into the yard, and there were actually other people outside.
Everyone was wearing Phoenix Pavilion uniforms and looked no different from Phoenix Pavilion disciples, but the other party wanted to kill them, so they naturally could not let them go easily.
The fight ended quickly. Jin Yan left one person alive. He pinched the other person's chin and fed him a pill. He asked coldly, "Who sent you here?"
The man choked on the pill and coughed several times before he felt better. Then he looked at Jin Yan with wide eyes, "What did you give me to eat?"
Jin Yan raised his eyebrows, "It's poison. If you want to live, tell me the truth. Who sent you here?"
The man panted and thought for a moment, "We received a mission from the Dark Emperor Pavilion."
Jin Yan sneered, "Mission? You'd better be honest. Do you think I'll believe you? If you don't want to live, I can just send you away."
Jin Yan lifted up the man's head. Not only was he plain looking, he also had no sense of existence. However, the clothes he wore were from the Phoenix Pavilion, which was a good way to frame him. He could blend in with the disciples of the Phoenix Pavilion without being noticed. "It's Zhong... um..."
An arrow shot out from the shadow of the branches and pierced the man's throat. Then more arrows were shot towards the two of them from under the shadows.
The two could only block and retreat until they retreated into the building, and then the rain of arrows stopped.
After Feng Hanyun confirmed that there was no one around, he slowly walked out and happened to meet Zong Zhengye and others who had just arrived from outside.
Zong Zhengye looked at the disciples wearing Phoenix Pavilion uniforms on the ground. He went forward to check them one by one. When he saw everyone's appearance clearly, he was shocked.
Then he hurriedly walked up to the two of them, bowed and said, "Excuse me, both of you."
Feng Hanyun put away his sword, and the shadow knife in Jin Yan's hand also disappeared. He walked over and returned the greeting, "What's going on?"
Zong Zhengye sighed, "While I was waiting for you two outside the palace, I received a letter from my father, asking me to lead my disciples back to Phoenix Pavilion. But when we went back to check, a group of people came out and tried to kill us. We realized that this was a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain, so we didn't want to fight, and when we came back, we saw this scene."
Jin Yan frowned, "Letter? Didn't the Sect Master leave the Phoenix Pavilion to participate in the Xuanbing Pavilion competition?"
Zong Zhengye showed a look of shame on his face. "This is because Phoenix Pavilion didn't provide good hospitality. In fact, my father never left Phoenix Pavilion."
Jin Yan looked puzzled, "But I saw someone leave."
Zong Zhengye explained, "After hearing what Miss Yan said, my father also sent people to investigate and got confirmation. However, my father wanted to know who did it, so he counted a group of disciples and had an elder lead them away to create a false impression, hoping to force the person behind the scenes to take action and find out the purpose of the person behind the scenes."
"Most of the disciples still come with me to the capital, waiting for Daqing and protecting the safety of the Lord."
Jin Yan chuckled and asked, "Where is the letter?"
Zong Zhengye quickly took out the note he had received, which read, "Phoenix Pavilion is in trouble, please return quickly." It was concise and to the point.
He continued, "I would never mistake my father's handwriting. Logically, my father should be waiting for the elders' reply in the Phoenix Pavilion. The appearance of this note has thrown me off balance."
Jin Yan put away the note and handed it to Zong Zhengye, "Worrying makes you confused, you don't have to worry too much."
Feng Hanyun asked, "Since someone tried to kill you on the way, have you confirmed the safety of the Sect Master?"
Zong Zhengye was startled, "It's not too late."
Jin Yan looked helpless, "Forget it, let Master help me ask."
Feng Hanyun nodded, spread his hands, revealing a paper crane, pointed with two fingers, and the paper crane flew up. Zong Zhengye couldn't hide his worry on his face. Jin Yan patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry, there will be news soon."
Zong Zhengye nodded, and then ordered the disciples behind him, "Take care of this place."
The three of them returned to the hall at the same time and sat down for a while. Zong Zhengye had a worried look on his face. Jin Yan and Feng Hanyun did not go upstairs in advance, but sat here waiting for news. The atmosphere was very awkward for a while.
After waiting for a while, the paper crane finally flew back. Feng Hanyun reached out her hand to catch the paper crane. After sensing it for a moment, she was slightly startled. "The Sect Master is fine, but I want the Young Master to go back. I have something important to discuss with you."
