He opened his cold eyes, and two dark holes were opened as if purgatory had opened up, and a murderous aura like Yama swept over him.

He moved slightly, and the sword in his hand shattered into pieces in an instant.

The man in black was nearly blinded by a flying blade.

After dodging sideways, he looked at the other party in disbelief, and finally understood why his master would send so many masters to assassinate him.

It’s not just because there are so many masters in the Holy Maiden Palace, but this guy is simply an expert among experts!

But he had just woken up and his breathing sounded very weak.

Kill him while he's sick! The man in black pulled out the dagger from his waist with his left hand and stabbed the man in the heart.

But before his knife touched the man, it was slapped away by the man.

He knocked over the table behind him and fell to the ground in a mess. Four of his ribs were broken, his internal organs were damaged, and he vomited a pool of blood.

This is just the power of one palm.

The companions were also somewhat surprised when they saw this.

All the top masters came here tonight, but they couldn't even withstand a single move from this man.

At this moment, he glanced around and caught a glimpse of the curtain swaying slightly beside him.

He stretched out his big hand and grabbed a little girl out from behind the curtain.

"It's really lively tonight..."

He sneered coldly.

The four little ones were bored just now and played hide-and-seek.

Wei Xiyue stood behind the curtain, closed her eyes and counted. The three little tigers hid, and she would go find them when she counted to twenty.

She was only halfway through the count.

"You surrender yourself, or I'll kill you—uh—uh—"

Before he finished saying the last word, the black-clothed man's companion felt his throat being strangled by a terrible internal force.

His face turned purple, his eyeballs bulged out, and the veins on his forehead jumped out.

The man on the bed swung his hand, and a powerful internal force hit him, knocking him flying and hitting the wall.

There were a few more crisp cracking sounds, and all the bones in his body were broken.

He lay face down on the cold floor, trembling like a dying fish.

"No... this is not... possible..."

The man sat up with a cold expression and walked down to the ground barefoot.

Maybe it was because he hadn't walked for a long time, but his steps were a little slow.

His eyes were also empty and bloodshot.

The two men in black had long been unable to move and had lost all their fighting power.

They looked at the man with empty eyes and suddenly realized that he had been turned into a puppet.

The killing move he made just now was not to save those children, but because he himself felt their murderous intent.

The man stepped over a man in black with an expressionless face.

He came to the heavy stone door and slammed it down with his palm.

There was a tiny crack in the stone door.

He slammed twice more.

When the third palm strike came, the thousand-pound stone door shattered with a bang.

Dust and stone chips flew in his face, but he didn't even blink.

Just as he was about to take a step forward, Wei Xiyue spoke softly, "Grandpa."

The man paused.

"grandfather."

Wei Xiyue called him again.

He turned around slowly and looked at Wei Xiyue with a pair of bloodthirsty eyes.

The man in black reminded sarcastically: "Little girl... he is not your grandfather... he is a puppet... a monster without any humanity..."

Wei Xiyue ignored him, holding the jar in her arms, and ran to the tall and mighty man, raising her palm-sized face: "Grandpa."

He slowly squatted down and knelt on one knee.

His eyes were still empty, as if he didn't know what he was doing.

Wei Xiyue put down the jar, opened her soft little arms, and hugged his neck without any fear.

"grandfather."

Not a puppet, not a monster.

The best grandpa.

Puppets have no memories and no emotions.

Some powerful puppets may even lose the ability to express themselves due to long-term drug control.

The man was held by the little girl in a daze, a trace of confusion flashed across his bloodthirsty eyes.

But gradually, the murderous intent in his eyes seemed to fade away little by little.

He opened his mouth with difficulty and said in a hoarse voice, clumsily and word by word: "Xi, Yue."

…

"Saint! Saint!"

The saint was injured a while ago and finally recovered, so naturally she needed to rest early.

But as soon as I lay down, I was awakened by the noise outside.

She frowned unhappily: "What's the matter?"

The disciple who came to report the news said in a hurry: "Someone broke into the Qionghua Palace without permission! He broke into the secret room! And he locked Envoy Lin out!"

It is not surprising to break into the Holy Maiden Palace, but it is a bit intriguing to break into the Qionghua Palace. And being able to find the secret room directly means that the uninvited guest tonight was targeting that person.

The saintly lady came out wearing her clothes: "How many people are there in total?"

The disciple said tremblingly: "Many, many..."

The Saint asked calmly, "How many people went in?"

The disciple trembled and said, "Two..."

The man hasn't woken up yet, let alone two people, even just one person can kill him.

The Holy Lady's face turned cold and she immediately went to the Qionghua Palace.

The masters of the Holy Maiden Palace and the black-clad assassin are still fighting.

The saint simply glanced at him and then entered the hall.

But when she arrived at the door, all she saw was the mess on the ground, the destroyed stone gate, the unconscious disciples, and Lin Changshi who was trapped under the rubble.

As for the secret room, it was already empty.

The saint squatted down and pierced the acupoints with silver needles.

Lin Changshi regained some consciousness and looked at the Saint weakly: "Saint... Saint..."

"He was captured?" asked the saint.

Lin Changshi shook his head slightly: "He...he left on his own..."

The saint frowned.

"I also... I also brought..." Lin Changshi was so weak that he fainted again before he could finish his words.

In this case, a second acupuncture with silver needles will be useless.

At this time, Envoy Lu also hurried over.

She glanced at the destroyed stone gate, the unconscious Lin Changshi and his disciples, and her face changed.

She hurried into the secret room to check again, only to see two dead men in black.

She left the secret room, her expression solemn: "Saint?"

The Saint said calmly, "He just woke up and is not strong enough to walk far. Let's split up and chase him."

Envoy Lu bowed and said, "Yes!"

After coming out of the Qionghua Palace, the assassin had been repelled by the masters of the Holy Maiden Palace.

However, because the noise was too loud, it still disturbed many elders.

Elder Ji and his disciples rushed over here and ran into the saint who was about to leave.

Elder Ji asked, "It's so late, where is the Saint going?"

The Saint said calmly: "Catch the assassin."

Elder Ji smiled and said, "The palace selection will be held tomorrow. Let your subordinates handle the task of catching the assassin. Saint, you should rest early so as not to miss important matters."

The saint said nothing more and walked away.

After taking two steps, the Saint suddenly stopped again. She didn't look back, but looked ahead and said, "Qionghua Palace is where I practice martial arts. It is separated from Elder Ji's Huihe Court by half a Saint Palace. How did Elder Ji manage to be the first to arrive?"

Cheng Lian: My eldest daughter is the smartest child in the Cheng family.

Cheng Sang: Hi——
