In the blink of an eye, Tianzhou rushed past the big ship.

After a while, Shen Yizi turned the boat back.

"Who sent you?" On the big ship, Gu Heng was forced to the stern by the assassin, with only a seriously injured guard left by his side.

He had been a disciple of the reclusive Bai family since he was a child and had not returned to the imperial capital for many years. This time he returned to celebrate the birthday of his grandmother, and also to take the opportunity to gain experience in the world.

The master said that if his state of mind could not keep up, he would not be able to overcome the bottleneck even if he practiced for another hundred years.

So they kicked him out, telling him not to come back until he broke through to the middle stage of Qi Refining.

The journey had been smooth sailing until they were about to reach the imperial capital, when they encountered an assassin.

Originally, he thought that his cultivation level of the third level of Qi Refining was already good enough, at least he should have no problem traveling around the world, but reality taught him a lesson.

After exhausting the spiritual energy in his body, his skills were no better than those of a second-rate warrior. However, the cultivator on the other side seemed to still have some strength left.

Seeing the guards around him falling one by one, the anger in his heart had reached its peak.

Of course he knew that the man in black would not reveal the real culprit behind the scenes, but he still asked, just to buy more time.

As long as he recovered a little spiritual energy, he would have the opportunity to activate the life-saving Fire Talisman given to him by his master.

Unfortunately, the assassin would not give him such an opportunity. The leading monk said coldly: "If you want to know, go to the underworld and ask the King of Hell!"

With a wave of his hand, the men in black behind him swung their swords at him.

The only remaining guard pushed Gu Heng into the water and said, "Take care, Your Highness!" He risked his life to meet the man in black, trying to buy some time for his own prince.

The moment Gu Heng fell into the water, his body suddenly felt lighter, and then he flew back onto the boat. When he landed, he staggered and almost fell.

He held onto the boat's pillar to steady himself, and when he looked up, his eyes met those of the man in black.

I couldn't help but feel that "God was going to kill me."

However, what he didn't know was that the men in black were also confused by this because it was not them who did it.

The guard's eyes showed despair. He had originally wanted to push the prince into the water to give him a chance to escape by diving. Unfortunately, even this glimmer of hope was now shattered.

At this moment of grief and anger, a figure in green came down like a stunning swallow and landed lightly on the side of the ship.

It was Shen Yizhi.

When the monks from the assassin camp saw her, their expressions darkened. However, after realizing that they could not see through the person's cultivation level, they had to restrain themselves. "May I ask if you are planning to intervene in this matter?"

The guard covered his stabbed chest and moved to Gu Heng's side, protecting him behind him.

Shen Yizhi glanced at the monk and said, "Either leave immediately or leave your life behind."

This statement was extremely arrogant.

The monk was so angry that he could hardly keep the veil on his face. No one had ever dared to look down on him like this. This kid was really frivolous.

Even if his cultivation is stronger than mine, how long can he hold out under the siege of me and others? Wouldn't he be slaughtered by me at that time? "You arrogant boy! I will meet you!"

The monk spread his arms and pounced towards Shen Yizhi like a bat with its wings spread.

This person practiced a technique called "Bat Kung Fu", which was characterized by light movements and agile speed.

Gu Heng had been ambushed by this man before. When he saw him rushing towards him, he subconsciously reminded Shen Yizhi: "Senior, be careful!"

Shen Yizi and that cultivator are both at the fourth level of Qi Refining, but in terms of actual combat power, she can defeat more than a dozen cultivators by herself.

Under normal circumstances, she wouldn't mind fighting with him, but now she was in a hurry to get on the road.

So he threw the little white frog out directly.

The little white frog grew faster in the wind, and when it landed on the ground it was already as big as a bathtub. The monk was immediately terrified and wished he had not taken on this mission. He turned around and wanted to run away, but it was too late.

The little white frog's tongue shot out like lightning and pierced the monk's chest and back.

The monk continued to run forward a few steps by inertia before he died and fell to the ground with a thud.

The men in black were startled, holding their knives tightly, and subconsciously moved closer to each other.

They were all ruthless people who killed people without blinking an eye just now, but now they have become quails who dare not even fart.

Shen Yizhi had no intention of committing more murders, and cultivators could not easily attack ordinary people, so he waved his hand: "If you don't leave, do you want to leave your life behind?"

The men in black couldn't believe it. This man was actually going to let them live? How could they dare to delay? They turned around and ran, jumping into the water like dumplings, swimming desperately.

Shen Yizhi flicked her sleeves, and the little white frog shrank again and was put into her sleeves.

Without giving Gu Heng a chance to speak, he threw a bottle of medicine over to him and said, "Give this to your guard." Then he left.

Gu Heng wanted to catch up, but was stopped by the side of the boat: "Excuse me, may I ask your name, senior?"

A voice was faintly heard in the wind: "I will give you 10,000 taels for saving my life and the money for medicine. I will ask you for it next time..."

Gu Heng looked at the medicine bottle in his hand, not knowing when they would meet next time.

Not to mention 10,000 taels, even 100,000 or 1 million is not much. After all, compared with his and Xie Chong's lives, what is a little money? This senior really does good things without leaving a name.

"Your Highness..." The guard, that is, Xie Chong, fell down dying. Gu Heng immediately ignored the senior and hurried forward to support him, pouring out the medicine in the bottle for him to drink.

Xie Chong and he have a friendship that began when they were young. Although they are said to be master and servant, they are actually more like brothers. Xie Chong and he have a special place in his heart.

I hope the medicine left by the senior will work, otherwise -

Thinking of the person behind the scenes, his eyes became fierce.

The imperial capital, Juntian City.

Shen Yizhi stood at the foot of the city wall, looking at this magnificent city.

As the center of the entire Tianyuan Empire, Juntian City is naturally majestic and magnificent, but unfortunately she came at the wrong time. All she saw was a huge shadow, like a crawling ancient ferocious beast, exuding a majestic and vigorous aura.

The city gate was already closed, how could he get in? Shen Yizhi thought for a moment and came up with an economical and feasible method.

She borrowed Qing Bao's Heaven-Swallowing Bottle, gave Bai Xiaowa a few instructions, and then climbed into the bottle.

The little white frog shrank to the size of a child's palm, rolled up the bottle, jumped towards the city wall, and then climbed up along the base of the wall.

The guard on the city wall was dozing off when suddenly a white shadow flashed before his eyes. He looked around but didn't see anything suspicious.

He yawned and muttered, "I'm so sleepy that my eyes are blurry."

Bai Xiaowa found a secluded place and put down the Heaven-Swallowing Bottle. After a moment, a young and handsome man emerged from it.

Shen Yizhi put away the Heaven-Swallowing Bottle and nodded Bai Xiaowa's head: "Well done."

In the past, Bai Xiaowa’s presence among her three contracted beasts was not strong, and she often forgot about it, but this time it came in handy.
