Chapter 148: All Counterattack
If anyone else made this choice right now, the two assassins would most likely suspect that there was something fishy going on.
Following the assassin who was just chasing him to meet the mastermind? Who would do such a thing? But when this happened to Wei Changtian, everything seemed to make sense.
The two assassins obviously knew all the rumors about Wei Changtian.
A devil who even dared to kill the prime minister, had never suffered any loss since he was a child. He thought that no one dared to touch him, so it was understandable that he acted so recklessly.
But even so, the two still maintained the most basic vigilance.
They quietly glanced at the two accomplices who were cut into two pieces not far away, lowered their heads and said in a deep voice:
"Master Wei, we can take you there, but I wonder if you can throw away the knife?"
"Abandon the knife?"
Wei Changtian was stunned for a moment, then asked disdainfully: "Are you afraid that I will kill you?"
The two assassins did not feel ashamed and nodded calmly: "We are only trying to protect ourselves. Young Master Wei is a martial arts master, and we believe we are no match for him."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Wei Changtian seemed to enjoy the flattery, but after laughing twice, his expression became full of sarcasm: "I can give up my sword, but what about you?"
"We will naturally give up our swords to ease your mind."
The two assassins immediately promised: "If you have any concerns, the three of us can help together."
"Alright, alright, stop dithering like a bitch."
Wei Changtian waved his hand impatiently, then drew his sword without hesitation and swung it forward with force.
“Swish!”
A ray of silver light flashed across the heads of the two assassins, and then with a "puff" sound, it was nailed into the mud more than ten feet behind them.
“.”
Looking at the empty scabbard in Wei Changtian's hand, the two assassins nodded and looked at each other, then also threw their swords behind them.
“Puff, puff!”
Three long swords were inserted diagonally into the ground, and the handles were all shaking slightly.
The two assassins finally breathed a sigh of relief.
They were indeed somewhat afraid of Wei Changtian's ridiculously powerful swordsmanship, but they absolutely did not believe that the latter could defeat them in fists and feet.
Even if they took a step back, even if they were no match for their fists and feet, they would not be killed on the spot, and they could still escape if they wanted.
"Sir, please follow us."
For the first time, the distance between the two sides was reduced to less than five meters, and was still getting closer.
Wei Changtian was standing on the outside of the alley. If the two assassins wanted to lead the way, they had to pass by Wei Changtian.
The air was so tense that it almost solidified. Although Wei Changtian had an indifferent expression, the two assassins were still extremely vigilant.
And at this moment.
"etc!"
The two sides were less than ten feet apart. Wei Changtian suddenly raised his head, smiled and asked a question that made the two assassins instantly shudder.
"Is there anyone alive in the palace?"
“Kick!”
The two assassins stopped immediately like wooden stakes, and a look of astonishment flashed across their faces.
"I, we don't know what the young master is talking about."
"It seems there are no survivors."
Wei Changtian nodded to himself and asked, "Then do you know where Princess Rouan is?"
“.”
This time, the two assassins could no longer hide their shock. They both widened their eyes and subconsciously took half a step back.
It was understandable that Wei Changtian could guess that they had massacred Prince Guangshun's palace. After all, Wei Changtian's carriage had just stopped next to the palace, so it was hard to say what he had noticed.
But how did Wei Changtian know that Ning Yuke was missing? Unless Ning Yuke, the only survivor, was with Wei Changtian? !
“Bang, bang, bang!”
After taking three steps back again, the two assassins' muscles tensed instantly, and their internal energy circulated frantically in their meridians.
They stared at Wei Changtian's every move like frightened birds, ready to run away at any time.
"If you don't want to say it, forget it"
However, on the other side, Wei Changtian just shook his head with a relaxed expression.
He had gotten the answer he wanted.
This group of assassins really didn't know that Ning Yuke was here with them. At least except for these two people, no one else knew about it.
Now that everything that needs to be confirmed has been confirmed, it's time. "Go to hell, you two."
He said the last sentence calmly, and suddenly, as if by magic, a hilt appeared in the empty scabbard.
"What?!"
The two assassins were inevitably stunned for a moment when they saw this incredible scene.
In just a split second, Wei Changtian had already drawn his sword from its sheath at an extremely fast speed and swung it into the air.
“Swish!”
The close-fitting soft armor made a creepy shattering sound. The two assassins looked down in shock, only to see a faint bloodstain on the exposed skin.
"This is."
“Puff!”
A pillar of blood shot out into the air.
In the blink of an eye, two more bodies, split in two, fell to the ground with a thud.
Moonlight, alley walls, blood, and broken bodies. "Huh"
Looking at the scene in front of him, Wei Changtian finally breathed a sigh of relief.
That's right, from the very beginning he had no intention of meeting the mastermind behind the scenes, everything he did was to kill these four assassins.
He first let Zhang San turn into the alley, and took advantage of the enemy's "loss of vision" to jump off the carriage, and then ambushed in the corner waiting for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack.
Although the result of the sneak attack was not ideal, only two were killed.
But Wei Changtian didn't expect that the two assassins actually recognized him.
So he took advantage of the situation and finally achieved his goal without any effort.
"Sir, are you okay?"
On the other side, Zhang San, who had been hiding nearby, suddenly appeared and ran over in a hurry.
"fine."
Wei Changtian shook his head and threw the long knife back.
The second sword belonged to Zhang San. He put it into the Star Sword Sheath before jumping out of the car. Unexpectedly, it actually came in handy.
"Sir, I wasn't being cowardly just now."
Zhang San grabbed the flying sword and tried to explain something anxiously.
"That's enough."
However, Wei Changtian waved his hand and interrupted: "You know how to adapt to circumstances. You did a good job this time."
Wei Changtian was not speaking sarcastically.
According to the original plan, if he failed to succeed in his attack and really fought with the assassin, Zhang San should have stopped the car immediately and come to help.
However, Zhang San probably noticed the change in the situation at that time, so he did not show up in a hurry, which was a smart move.
"Thank you for the compliment, sir."
Seeing that Wei Changtian understood him, Zhang San stopped explaining and asked in a low voice: "Master, what shall we do next?"
"Ning Yuke is still in the car?"
"Before I got off the car, I pressed the princess's acupuncture points to prevent her from getting into danger."
"Well, it's not a good place to stay for long."
Wei Changtian nodded and picked up the two pieces of the body on the ground with one hand each.
"Load the body into the car and let's go."
