At the window, the assassin's shadow seemed extremely patient, standing still and staring.

His cold eyes, like a poisonous snake, stared at Lin Hao who was sleeping on the bed.

After about a few minutes, after making sure that Lin Hao was not moving, the black shadow moved and quietly slipped inside.

It was dark inside.

The shadow was silent, even the sound of breathing was suppressed to be inaudible.

If the Parrot Four Treasures had not had the night vision ability to discover it in advance, Lin Hao would probably have found it difficult to detect the assassin's infiltration without being on guard!

The black shadow came closer and looked quietly at Lin Hao who was lying on his back.

Lin Hao closed his eyes, his heart was extremely calm.

Because the Kung Fu flies and wolf spiders were already lurking beside his pillow.

If this guy dares to take action, the consequences are easy to imagine.

However, there was no trace of murderous intent in the eyes of the shadow man.

He took out a storage ring and placed it beside the bed, then turned around and prepared to leave.

"Since you're here, you should at least explain everything clearly before leaving."

Just as the black shadow took two steps, a strange voice suddenly rang out.

The shadow man was startled for a moment, and then he saw a handsome and proud parrot standing on the window.

There is no doubt that the sound just now was made by this parrot.

"Sibao, long time no see."

When he saw Sibao, the shadow man actually called out its name.

Moreover, although the voice was cold, it was pleasant to the ears, and it was obviously a woman's!

"Purple Night?"

Lin Hao felt the voice was familiar.

At that moment, he somersaulted under the bed and landed steadily.

The moonlight from outside the window shone in, shining on the black figure, highlighting her graceful and slender figure.

"I was so careful, but you still found me."

The shadowy figure turned around and faced Lin Hao, a faint smile showing on his cold face.

This person was Lin Hao’s immediate superior in Mingge, Zi Ye.

"It was you, you almost did it just now."

Lin Hao smiled calmly and said, "Don't be so scary when you come to me next time."

As he spoke, Lin Hao reached out and picked up the storage ring beside the bed, and scanned it with his mental power.

But inside there was a Wanjin card and a lot of sound transmission notes.

"I can't help it. Two years ago, I burned all my notes to find you, but I didn't see any reply from you."

Zi Yexiang shrugged and said lightly.

Hearing this, Lin Hao understood.

At the beginning, he was trapped in a dark illusion because of the test of the Holy Land Spirit Infant, and he could not sense any movement from the outside world.

After regaining consciousness, Lin Hao also called up the wolf spider's visual image to check.

He knew that every once in a while, a sound transmission note would fly out of the storage ring.

But in the end, until the sound transmission note burned out, there was no news at all.

"So you came here tonight just to deliver some sound transmission notes?"

Lin Hao smiled calmly and took out the Wanjin card.

As he used his spiritual power to explore, Lin Hao was surprised to find that the amount inside was extremely considerable.

There are as many as 200 million!

"Since I couldn't contact you at the time, I thought you were dead, so I stopped sending money."

Zi Ye looked indifferent, as if he had no interest in money at all. He said, "This gold card contains two years' salary. I will return it to you in full."

Hearing this, Lin Hao was delighted and said with a smile: "Thank you."

These 200 million are undoubtedly what he urgently needs now.

It is just right to evolve the Fire Scale Tiger and the Four Treasures to S-level respectively.

"There is one thing I'm curious about. How do you resist the blood-sucking poison?"

Zi Ye suddenly asked, staring at Lin Hao with a strange look.

She remembered that when she took Lin Hao to meet the leader of the Mingge Tianzu, 'Dark Eagle', Lin Hao was forced to drink poison.

That is a kind of venom that Mingge uses specifically to control its members.

The poison enters the blood, and warriors below the Saint Realm cannot eradicate it even with the use of spiritual energy.

And it would occur once a month. If there was no antidote, the blood vessels throughout the body would feel as if being bitten by thousands of insects, causing unbearable pain.

Hearing this, Lin Hao was slightly stunned, and just then he remembered this.

At that moment, he thought about it and said casually, "I don't know either. Two years ago, when the poison suddenly broke out in the Magic Beast Mountain Range, a venomous snake happened to pass by and bit me. Then I got better without realizing it."

Venomous snake?

Hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Zi Ye's beautiful eyes.

Immediately, she asked in surprise, "What venomous snake?"

Lin Hao shook his head. "I don't know. At that time, the pain was worse than death. How could I have the energy to look at the poisonous snake?"

"Perhaps this is what is called fighting fire with fire."

As he spoke, Lin Hao smiled faintly and deliberately found an excuse.

Fighting poison with poison?

Zi Ye's eyes were slightly stern and he was somewhat skeptical about what Lin Hao said.

In the pharmaceutical industry, there is indeed a saying that one should fight poison with poison.

Moreover, she was there when Lin Hao swallowed the poison, so the situation couldn't be fake.

She had personally experienced the pain of a blood-sucking poison attack and was completely unable to resist it.

Therefore, in Zi Ye's opinion, with Lin Hao's current cultivation level, it would be difficult to resist.

However, two years have passed, and Lin Hao has managed to hold on until now without taking the antidote.

This means that the toxins in Lin Hao's body have indeed been cleared as he said.

Zi Ye couldn't help but be a little surprised about this.

Who would have thought that a mere venomous snake could remove the effect of the venom? !

Zi Ye thought about it and felt it necessary to report the matter to the team leader.

Little did they know that it was precisely because of Lin Hao's lie this time that many members of the Underworld Pavilion would suffer the tragic snake experiment in the future.

"You're welcome, sit down and talk."

As Lin Hao's voice fell, Wolf Spider had already pushed a stool and stopped in front of Zi Ye.

Zi Ye nodded indifferently and sat down.

In the dim dormitory, the two sat opposite each other.

Since both parties were assassins, there was no awkwardness at all in such a dark environment.

Lin Hao asked calmly: "Your coming here this time should not be as simple as giving away the sound transmission note and the Wanjin Card, right?"

"Um."

Zi Ye nodded indifferently.

"I saw you were sleeping, so I didn't disturb you. I planned to put my things away and leave."

Having said this, Zi Ye stared at Lin Hao with a pair of cold and beautiful eyes and said, "But there is one thing I think I need to remind you of."

Lin Hao raised his eyebrows slightly, but did not say a word to interrupt the other party.

"The health of the King of Fire has been weakening in recent times, and he is no longer able to deter the changes in the various forces in the court."

Zi Ye seemed to intentionally bring up these sensitive political issues with Lin Hao, and said without hesitation:

"And according to intelligence, the eldest and second princes are very likely to launch a coup during the national celebration next month."

coup?!

A hint of surprise appeared on Lin Hao's face.

Then he remembered that Qin Yu had specifically told his brothers not to go to the palace to attend the celebration.

So this is the inside story!

"Since King Yan already knows about it, why not stop it in advance?"

In response to this, Lin Hao said with some surprise.

Zi Ye shook his head and said coldly: "The reason why King Yan has not yet appointed a new crown prince is that he intends to let the princes compete for the throne. The most capable one will take the throne."

Lin Hao couldn't help but be secretly shocked.

It seems that old fellow Yan Wang is also a ruthless person.

In order to select a better new king, he was willing to let his sons kill each other.

"Therefore, King Yan has issued an order that all members of the Underworld Pavilion are prohibited from participating in any party's coup in this celebration."

At this point, Zi Ye glanced at Lin Hao and said meaningfully: "Including you, Lin Hao."

She knew that because of Qin Yu, Lin Hao had always maintained a good relationship with the fourth prince Yan Chen.

"Don't worry, let alone participating, I have no interest in even going to the palace celebration this time."

Lin Hao spread his hands and said indifferently.

Zi Ye smiled calmly and said, "It's a pity that you have to go even if you don't want to."

oh?

Lin Hao asked in a slightly surprised tone: "What?"

"Protect the Flame King."

Zi Ye looked serious, and these four short words revealed the deep meaning.

Obviously, if there really is a coup at that time, even King Yan may not be able to control the situation.

It seems that I have to go this time.

Lin Hao shook his head secretly, but it was also a good opportunity as he could observe the development of the situation on the spot.

If Qin Yu encounters any accident, he can still help.

Anyway, by then, he will appear as Jing Ke, and no one will know who he is except the Mingge organization.

"On the day of the celebration next month, you will meet me at the Jinhai Pavilion in the Imperial City, and then follow the organization to sneak into the palace as a whole."

After Zi Ye finished his instructions, he did not linger any longer and glided out of the window lightly.

Looking at the figure outside the window disappearing into the night, Lin Hao's eyes narrowed slightly and he fell into deep thought.

This change of throne is obviously inevitable.

In Lin Hao's opinion, King Yan's original idea might be to let the princes develop on their own and observe which one would be a better candidate to be the next king.

At the beginning, King Yan was able to suppress them with the power of Hades Pavilion.

For example, in Wang Taiwei's mansion, the Minister of Revenue, Ma Shuoliang, was assassinated, but he also had the power to threaten the eldest prince.

However, with the development in recent years, each prince's ability has become exceptionally outstanding and his wings have gradually grown stronger.

On the surface, it looked like the accident was caused by the Fire King.

But everyone knows that with King Yan's current power, he is undoubtedly unable to control the situation and can only let it change.

Otherwise, how could he just sit back and watch and let the celebration in the palace turn into a battlefield for the throne!

"It's your own fault."

A hint of sarcasm appeared on Lin Hao's lips.

Throughout history, power has been really harmful to people.

Many officers and soldiers, as well as civilians, became victims because of it.

Of course, Lin Hao is not a saintly bitch because he has this idea at the moment.

If possible, he also hopes to own a territory and be a carefree lord.

At that time, you will be able to develop freely in the territory and create greater wealth.

He even fulfilled his long-cherished dream of forming an animal army.

Then, Lin Hao looked down at the Wanjin Card in his hand and whispered, "System, I want to evolve animals."

"Ding, host, please select the animal that needs to evolve."

Soon, the system's electronic synthesized sound suddenly rang out.

Immediately afterwards, a light curtain panel suddenly appeared in front of Lin Hao.

There are four pet totems on the panel, flashing with light.

They are Kung Fu Fly, Wolf Spider, Four Treasures, and Fire Scale Tiger.

Below the list, their respective information is displayed.

Now, Kung Fu Fly and Wolf Spider have evolved to S level.

The four treasures and the fire-scale tiger are at Class A king level.

It costs 200 million to evolve two pets to S level.

The gold card he has on hand is just enough.

“Advanced.”

Immediately, Lin Hao clicked on the pet totem of the Fire Scale Tiger.

"Ding, successful advancement, congratulations to codename 004 Fire Scale Tiger, you have been upgraded to S-rank, and your combat power has been comprehensively improved."

As the system prompt sounded, Lin Hao noticed that the Fire Scale Tiger's totem was flickering and gradually evolving.

However, this time, apart from the combat power soaring to 50,000, other aspects did not seem to have changed much.

As for the flames on the surface of the Fire Scale Tiger, they were completely transformed into the form of a purple flame beast, and the entire body was filled with cold purple flames.

"Master, here I come!"

Sibao, who has always been at the bottom of the class, obviously has a strong desire to become stronger.

When it saw Lin Hao's gaze directed at itself, it immediately pounced forward in ecstasy.

whoosh!

The next moment, the four treasures disappeared and were directly taken into the system pet space.

"Ding, successful advancement, congratulations to the codename 003 Sibao for upgrading to S-level, and their combat power has been comprehensively improved."

"Ding, congratulations to codename 003 Sibao for obtaining the special bloodline, the blood of the Thunder Phoenix."

As the system prompt sounded, the totems of the four treasures suddenly flashed with lightning and began to undergo a huge transformation.

Blood of the Thunder Phoenix? !

When Lin Hao heard that Sibao had obtained special bloodline, his heart started beating wildly.

At this moment, he couldn't help but be extremely curious about the four treasures' upcoming evolution and transformation.

After a few breaths, the lightning on the surface of the totem finally stopped flashing.

Immediately afterwards, what appeared in Lin Hao's vision was a picture of an extremely majestic bird.

Its body is no longer short and round like a parrot, but has become very slender, with a head like a pheasant, a body covered with scales and feathers, and a hint of thunder lingering all over.

Especially that pair of sharp phoenix claws, which seemed to have the momentum to tear the sky apart!

Although what was presented in front of Lin Hao was just a pet totem, he could still clearly feel the heart-pounding pressure of the holy beast's blood emanating from it.

This form is completely different from Sibao's previous appearance!

“So cool!”

Lin Hao's eyes flashed as he looked at the evolved forms of the four treasures, and he was very happy.

If it weren't for the concern that the strong thunder power in Sibao would alarm other people in the dormitory area.

Lin Hao might have been impatient to summon it out.

Therefore, he had to suppress the excited thoughts in his heart and shift his attention to the information attributes of the four treasures.
