Hei Yu was a assassin trained by a prominent family in Fengwu Province. He had worked under the eldest lady for many years. He had assassinated and met countless people, but he had never seen such a terrifying and strange person.
Even if he saw a great wizard, he would not be so frightened. After all, the great wizard's magic was at least visible and tangible, and the huge magic power could crush him.
The reason why he is afraid now is because everything about Su Yuechen is unknown.
He had no idea how the other party could use his body to fight against high-level magic. He even thought for a moment that he was hallucinating and was ambushed by the other party's mental magic.
But in fact, no matter how you perceive it, there is no magical fluctuation.
But there was an explosive power hidden under the opponent's flesh and blood, which made him feel terrified. Even ordinary monsters did not have such terrifying power.
This is beyond the scope of human beings.
Hei Yu knew that the assassination attempt had failed and would even trigger a series of chain reactions, but he didn't have time to think too much. He simply passed through the wall of the house without even concealing the fluctuations of his magic power. He mobilized all the magic power in his body and turned into a thin mist, flying rapidly in the air.
"Huh... She didn't chase me. It seems she's just physically strong, not capable of flying."
After flying hundreds of meters, Hei Yu turned around to look in the direction of Su Yuechen. He saw the woman in the red dress walking out of the room and standing at the door of the courtyard looking at the sky, as if she could do nothing about it.
This made him breathe a sigh of relief. Fortunately, although Su Yuechen possessed an incomprehensible body, his abilities were not as varied as magic, and he couldn't even fly.
"I must report this to the Madam immediately after returning... No! I must report it to the Patriarch. A human with this flesh and blood power is definitely the magical experiment subject that all the major families dream of! This time..."
Hei Yu escaped the disaster, and the fear in his heart was immediately suppressed, followed by a sense of shame and endless anger towards Su Yuechen.
As an assassin in the dark, when had he ever failed so miserably, or fled in such a panic and embarrassment as tonight?
Xu Xianxian stood at the gate of the courtyard, watching the other person's back disappear into the night, but did not chase immediately. With such a short flying distance, she could catch up with him with just one jump.
But there is no need.
"The joy of surviving a catastrophe, the terror of life and death, the shame of a failed assassination, the anger of being defeated—all sorts of emotions will occur in a short period of time and then overlap. This should allow us to better appreciate the complex and intense emotions in emotional life." Xu Xianxian's dark pupils had completely turned scarlet. She muttered to herself with a sense of realization, "But as a death warrior, you should put aside your emotions. Running away when you can't win really doesn't fit the setting!"
At the end of her words, she actually shook her head with some regret, then raised her right hand high. The Dan Qi suddenly gathered in her palm, and after being compressed at high concentrations several times, it condensed into a blood-red spear.
The spear was about one person tall, with an extremely sharp tip that flashed with a faint bloody light.
"But you came to my place in the middle of the night, destroying the tables and chairs, and even ruining all my newly bought books. How could I let you live? Being killed just when you thought you were alive is a real contradiction of intense emotions."
Ever since Xu Xianxian mastered the power of emotions, she has liked to collect different emotional fluctuations to improve the power of her authority.
It also became a little more badass.
Swish——
The blood-red spear condensed from Dan Qi was thrown directly from her hand and instantly pierced into the night.
Xu Xianxian didn't have the time to confirm the result. She just walked slowly back to her room.
......
"Madam, Madam!"
Hei Yu arrived outside the lord's main residence, but in order not to be disliked by the lord, he did not choose to go in directly. Instead, he used a special secret method of transmitting sound and called out to the lady in a low voice.
He is the eldest lady's confidant, so naturally he has special communication magic, but he usually won't use it unless it is absolutely necessary.
"...Hmm?" After a moment, the eldest lady's slightly indifferent voice finally rang in Heiyu's ears, "Heiyu, what's wrong? Did it succeed?"
"Madam, I'm sorry, I failed. Things have changed this time. That Su Yuechen..." Hei Yu was hiding outside the side courtyard wall of the main residence. He was anxious to tell the Madam what he had seen and heard tonight. But just as he opened his mouth, he felt a pain in his chest. His whole body was pulled forward a long distance. He couldn't help but screamed: "Ah!"
He lowered his head in disbelief, only to see that he was no longer in the same position as before, but was nailed alive to the high wall by a bloody spear.
Blood was all over the floor.
Hei Yu subconsciously stretched out his hand, wanting to pull out the blood-red spear. A seven-ring magician wouldn't die directly from external injuries, but the power emitted by the spear sealed all the magic power in his body, and like a vortex of storm, it directly destroyed his internal organs and the core of his sea of consciousness. "No... Impossible..."
Before he could finish his words, his head tilted and he died completely.
"Kuroba, how could you fail? What just happened? Kuroba...? Kuroba...?"
"I order you to answer quickly! Where are you now?"
The eldest lady's voice came after a brief hesitation, but no response was received.
The body of the seventh-ring water magician Hei Yu was not discovered until the next morning.
The cleaning lady who was in charge of cleaning the street outside the main palace found a long trail of blood while sweeping the ground. She then followed the trail all the way inside and saw a black-robed corpse nailed to the wall above the outer wall of the side courtyard.
Someone died not far from the main mansion, and the blood of the deceased contained powerful magic, which immediately alarmed several senior officials of the Su Mansion, even the lord was no exception.
However, the lord has not been in the mansion these days, but has been in the capital of Fengwu Province, discussing cooperation on a major project with several friendly families.
But the news from the Su Mansion still made him furious, and he ordered his subordinates to investigate the matter thoroughly. No matter who dared to kill people in the Su Mansion, they would not be forgiven easily.
…
Outside the wall of the side courtyard of the lord's mansion.
The entire wall was directly cordoned off with a warning line, and no outsiders were allowed to enter. Outside the line, there were a bunch of people watching the excitement, not only some servants, but also several relatives of the Su family.
They looked at the two seventh-ring magicians standing at the foot of the wall, both with solemn expressions on their faces, directing their men to move down the corpses nailed to the wall.
"Boss, this spear has the ability to suppress magic! Our transport magic was completely negated by the power of this spear before it even touched the corpse!"
However, no matter how hard the two men working on the wall tried or how they cast spells, the corpse nailed to the wall did not move at all.
