The exceptionally cold sea breeze blew into Mao City at night, causing a large temperature difference between day and night in this tropical city.
The blond young man who followed his senior to carry out the mission was wearing a short-sleeved sweatshirt and inexplicably felt a little cold.
At this moment, he was quietly approaching an elegant mansion with his senior.
There is their next target, Yang Wen, a pro-student councilor in Mao City.
"Ah Sheng, I'll go in later. You attack the target directly. As for the rest, leave it to me."
"After completing the mission, crush the teleportation item I gave you and evacuate immediately."
The middle-aged man ordered in a low voice.
After hearing the arrangement made by his senior, Luo Sheng agreed directly.
"good."
He didn't ask his senior how to evacuate.
There is no need. As the senior is in the fifth realm of the earth, it is not his turn to worry about it as he is in the second realm of the earth.
He was walking behind and didn't notice the complicated expression on the face of the senior in front of him, which seemed to indicate that he had sensed something.
The two men quickly sneaked into the mansion, and the moment they stepped over the wall, a thin barrier was formed silently.
The huge building was temporarily isolated in the net.
Inside the house, Pei Qinglan, who was sitting in the living room chatting with Councillor Yang Wen, paused.
Yang Wen noticed Pei Qinglan's abnormal behavior, and immediately thought of something and became alert.
Pei Qinglan activated his spiritual power, and a gentle wind began to swirl in the room, surrounding the two of them without any gaps.
The hall was momentarily plunged into pin-drop silence, with only the sound of their fierce heartbeats echoing in their ears.
Pei Qinglan released her perception and merged with the wind. The next moment, she keenly sensed a gap in the wind.
"call out!"
The light arrow grazed Yang Wen's left arm, and Pei Qinglan pulled her behind him in time, avoiding the attack on her heart.
Before Pei Qinglan could counterattack in the direction of the shot, the blade flashing with cold light arrived in front of her first.
“clang!”
A metal folding fan appeared out of thin air and then unfolded instantly, with the fan directly blocking the chopping blade.
However, she was still led back several meters by the middle-aged man holding a long knife.
Naturally, she and Yang Wen were instantly separated by a distance.
Pei Qinglan felt the strength of the person coming, and with a push of his hand, the smooth fan surface directly deflected the long sword.
Then she spun around, and the fan brought a sharp wind across, directly cutting towards the black-clad assassin in front of her.
At the same time, Yang Wen also took out a dagger and blocked all the light arrows that were shot again.
She does need protection, after all, she is an old woman and not young anymore.
However, this does not mean that she has no fighting ability.
You know, she earned her position as a member of parliament through military merit.
For now, the situation is at a stalemate.
However, since the human race’s top leaders sent these two people to eliminate dissidents, it naturally makes sense.
Just when Pei Qinglan's attention was completely diverted, the middle-aged man took a wrong step and barely avoided the attack.
After dodging the attack of the folding fan, he pretended to strike with his sword but missed.
The next moment, the slash crossed the space and suddenly appeared behind Yang Wen.
Tired of dealing with the dense array of light arrows, Yang Wen, whose attention and perception were far inferior to before due to age limitations, didn't notice for a moment.
"Swish! Puff!"
The attack penetrated into Yang Wen's flesh and blood. She paused, and then the light arrow pierced her brain.
Target dead, mission accomplished.
Outside the mansion, Luo Sheng immediately crushed the teleportation prop covered with red lines and disappeared on the spot.
The middle-aged man no longer suppressed his cultivation. The power of the peak of the fifth realm of the earth instantly shook off Pei Qinglan who attacked again.
He turned around and tried to leave, but the next moment he was frozen in place by the word "Senior Brother".
"Brother Lian Hong, is that you?"
Lian Hong's hand holding the long sword trembled slightly, and his mind was full of thoughts.
He did not look back, nor did he dare to respond. He just stood there, bound by the chains of the past.
"Brother, it's useless for you not to respond. I will recognize your swordsmanship."
Pei Qinglan's hands were also shaking, tears stayed in her eyes and refused to fall, but her voice was unconsciously choked with sobs.
"Why did you leave without saying goodbye and then disappear for three years?"
"Everyone is looking for you, Master, Uncle, and Sheng Tian's fellow disciples, everyone is looking for you!"
She began to speak incoherently, confusion, grievance and longing mixed together and attacked her reason.
Lian Hong didn't answer, he just forced himself to lift his feet and start walking out.
In the quiet hall, the chain around his waist made a series of harsh friction sounds.
When he was about to finally walk out the door, the woman's crying voice came again from behind him.
"Is it because you became the Detainee?"
The nightmarish name of "detainer" was like the last straw that broke the camel's back for Lian Hong, making him unable to move forward in an instant.
Behind him, the originally sad Pei Qinglan watched helplessly as the high-spirited senior brother in his memory bent his back.
In her astonished eyes, he seemed to have finally collapsed under the heavy pressure. He hunched over, holding his waist and abdomen in pain and began to spasm.
"Brother? Brother, what's wrong with you?"
Pei Qinglan no longer cared about other emotions. Worry swept away everything and pushed her forward.
Then, she saw Lian Hong's face clearly under the hood.
Transparent drops of tears kept flowing out of his numb eyes and sliding across his mouth which was screaming silently.
