Chapter 329 Attacked from Behind

Murong Li put Su Yue down and found a secluded place for her to hide and help him when necessary.

Then he drew his sword and waited for the person to come.

“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…”

Dozens of men in black came walking on the snow. Their toes touched the snow without leaving any trace. They truly walked without leaving any trace on the snow, which showed that their lightness skills had reached the pinnacle.

Su Yue clicked her tongue. This group of people came with such fierce force that they seemed to be ready to kill both of them.

She sneered, wanting to kill both of them, what a joke.

Dozens of people came to Murong Li in the blink of an eye, surrounded him, and stabbed him with their swords without saying a word. The snowflakes brought up by the sword energy were as beautiful as snowflakes flying down from the sky, dancing all over the sky.

Su Yue held her breath and watched the battlefield. She would take action if Murong Li was no match for her, and she also had to be on guard against sneak attacks from the men in black.

Murong Li's figure was like a nimble dragon, shuttling back and forth among dozens of people, like a series of afterimages, only the shadow could be seen but not the person.

Dozens of people were stunned. Their lightness skills were all top-notch, but this man's lightness skills were far above theirs, and were simply beyond their reach.

Wherever Murong Li's sword passed, someone would be injured.

Even if dozens of people wanted to dodge, they wouldn't be fast enough.

The injured people only groaned. Those with minor injuries continued to join the battle, while those with serious injuries stepped aside, had their wounds simply bandaged, and continued to join the battle.

Of course, there were also people who were killed by Murong Li's sword. They fell in the snow and were quickly buried by the flying snow.

Su Yue watched from the side and felt that these people were well-trained, but not killers. She had seen many killers, and their moves were ruthless and fatal. These people's sword moves were uniform. Although the sword moves were sharp, they were not ruthless, and they used a set of sword techniques.

Su Yue was wondering in her heart, who is this person?

"call out!"

Suddenly, a man in black jumped out from the snow and stabbed Murong Li with his sword raised.

Su Yue was shocked when she saw it and quickly attacked with her mental power, but she was a step too late. The sword stabbed Murong Li's back heavily, and she could still hear the sound of the sword piercing into the flesh.

Murong Li only frowned when he was stabbed by the sword. He didn't expect that the person who fainted in the snow could actually give him a fatal blow. Fortunately, he had strong internal strength, and he used his internal strength to shock the sword when it entered his body, so the sword did not penetrate deeper.

I think this guy is pretending to be dead.

A ruthlessness flashed across his eyes. He endured the piercing pain and swung his sword back, chopping off the man's head. The man died completely.

Su Yue's heart skipped a beat and she wanted to jump out to help, but when she thought about the fact that she didn't know martial arts and that going out would only be a hindrance, she gritted her teeth and endured it, preparing to use the corpse soldiers.

This battle should not last long, so Su Yue immediately threw out ten corpse soldiers in the space and asked them to go up and help.

I wanted to use my mental power to help, but those men in black were so good at flying around that I couldn't lock them down at all.

With the addition of the corpse soldiers, Murong Li felt much more relaxed, and soon the men in black fell to the ground with thuds.

In just a short time, dozens of men in black were wiped out, and not a single one escaped.

"Yue'er, don't come out yet."

After everyone was dealt with, Murong Li stopped Su Yue who was about to come out. He was afraid that there were more men in black pretending to be dead, so he quickly checked in the snow. Only when he saw that the dozens of men in black were all dead did he let her out.

Su Yue came out and immediately collected the corpse soldiers, and even more quickly put the bodies of the dozens of men in black into the space. Then she brought Murong Li into the space and helped bandage his wounds.

When bandaging the wound, it was seen that Murong Li not only had a deep sword wound on his back, but also had wounds of all sizes on his arms, legs, stomach, and entire body.

Su Yue was so heartbroken that tears came to her eyes.

It’s really not easy to earn some money, you really have to risk your life.

Su Yue wanted to give up, but she was just thinking about it. Murong Li would not give up.

"Does it hurt?"

She asked softly, he was injured so badly this time, the person who came this time was really not simple. He had been attacked so many times before, but except for the time when he was poisoned, he had never been injured so badly.

"It doesn't hurt, just some superficial injuries."

Murong Li shook his head, gently wiped away her tears, and spoke softly, thinking to himself that he should bring two secret guards with him next time and not fight so hard. If he was injured, Yue'er would be sad too.

Su Yue quickly bandaged him and gave him medicine to drink.

"You lie down. Are you hungry? I'll make something to eat."

"No, I'm not hungry either. Yue'er, help me go and see the body."

Su Yue was unhappy: "Can't we watch it tomorrow?"

Murong Li kissed her: "It's really okay, let's take a look at the body first. This attack, it feels like these people have a background."

Su Yue rolled her eyes at him and had to help him walk to the pile of corpses. He then squatted down to examine the corpses.

After some inspection, it was impossible to tell where these people came from, or to be more precise, it was impossible to tell who sent them.

He frowned and said, "These people are very skilled in martial arts. They are not ordinary people's assassins, nor are they the secret guards of some family in the capital. I wonder who they are?"

Murong Li stood up and looked at the pile of corpses with a frown.

"Is he Murong Jing's man?"

Murong Li looked up at Su Yue and shook his head: "It shouldn't be his. His old group of people were basically wiped out by us. It hasn't been long since then. It takes a long time to train someone with such high martial arts skills.

Moreover, these people's martial arts are very gentle, not like killers or assassins."

"Is he someone from some underworld power?"

Su Yue felt the same way and asked about her doubts.

The business they do is likely to hinder a certain force, which will then attack and kill them.

Murong Li thought carefully about the major forces in the martial arts world, and after a while he said, "Perhaps. This is quite consistent with the fighting between masters of the martial arts world. This needs to be thoroughly investigated."

With a general direction, Murong Li immediately left the space and sent a message by carrier pigeon, asking his people to check and see which martial arts sect had lost dozens of masters recently.

Now you will know.

Murong Li was injured, and it was night, so Su Yue simply let him sleep in the space for a night to heal his injuries. It would not be too late to go into the mountains tomorrow. Anyway, it was almost the New Year, and they would not attract anyone's attention whether they were in the capital during the day or not.

Murong Li agreed, and he also had to think about what to do next.

If a martial arts sect is really involved, this matter will not end well, and he must find out the truth.

There are already a lot of troubles in the court, and now the forces of the underworld are involved, so we have to make a new plan of action.
