The night deepens at Prince Yun’s Mansion.
It was summer, with cicadas chirping and frogs croaking. It was in such an environment that a few unknown figures appeared in Prince Yun's Palace. They were good at traveling at night, and their ghostly figures avoided the detection of Prince Yun's Palace guards and secret guards.
A rustling sound was heard from Yunzhong Pavilion, south of Prince Yun's Mansion.
"Where's that jerk? Why does it feel like no one has lived here for a long time?"
"Isn't that the idiot from Prince Yun's Mansion, Yunzhong Pavilion, located south of it?"
The leading man in black whispered, "The clue he gave is wrong. Let's split up and look for him. Be careful to avoid Yun Jingtian's residence and don't alarm him, otherwise our mission will fail!"
"Okay, split up."
After the four men in black finished their discussion, they went in different directions. Since they were killers, they had ways to conceal their presence, so no one would discover their tracks for a while.
At this moment, Yun Zheng, who was meditating in the room, suddenly opened his eyes.
She narrowed her cold eyes slightly, a stranger had triggered the mysterious formation she had set up in Yunfei Pavilion!
Yun Zheng stood up calmly, then pulled over the plain coat hanging on the rack and put it on neatly. He summoned a sharp silver sword in his hand, and a flash of silver light flashed, cold and icy.
She stood sternly in the room, waiting for the sudden stranger to appear.
Qingfeng, who was in the dark, noticed that she was so alert, so he gave up the idea of killing the person for her and continued to stay in the dark and observe silently.
The sound of footsteps, so subtle that they were almost inaudible, was approaching...
Here we come!
Yun Zheng's eyes focused, and the sword in her hand was ready to strike.
A strange red flashed across Yun Zheng's eyes. Through the door, she could vaguely see the figure and attire of the person who came.
The person who came was a great spiritual master and an eighth-level killer!
Yun Zheng's red lips curled up slightly. They actually sent an eighth-level assassin, a great spiritual master, to kill her?
He really looked down upon her body, a notorious 'waste'!
The killer opened the door as if no one was around, wanting to check if it was the target person. However, he didn't expect that as soon as he stepped into the room, the tip of a sharp sword pierced his neck accurately and violently, going through him horizontally!
"Sizzle—"
"You..." The killer in black fell to the ground before he could finish his words.
Dead.
Yun Zheng glanced down at the now-dead killer. He had been so careless! If he had been a little more vigilant, perhaps she wouldn't have succeeded so easily!
She walked past the killer's body, out the door, raised her head and looked in a certain direction. She said in a cold voice: "Qingfeng, lead the rest of the killers to Yunfei Pavilion. I want to deal with them myself!"
A green figure flashed, and suddenly, Qing Feng appeared in front of her. He said, "How about I take care of it?"
"No, I want to practice."
Naturally, she would seize such a good opportunity to practice with someone.
Qingfeng was a little shocked when he heard it.
He almost thought he had heard wrongly...
Qing Feng advised, "The killer just now died because he was careless. If the next killer is not careful, Miss Yun, your strength may not be enough to resist a killer of the Great Spiritual Master level."
How could a third-level spiritual master who had only been practicing for a short time possibly cross a major realm to compete with him!
Qingfeng had never seen Yun Zheng fight with anyone and didn't know her true strength.
Therefore, when she said loudly that she wanted to practice her skills with a killer at the level of a great spiritual master, Qingfeng couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied and contemptuous.
Qingfeng felt that Yun Zheng was too self-righteous and had no self-awareness at all. She was as naive as those female cultivators who wanted to be by the Emperor's side.
"Just lure it over here." Yun Zheng said.
Seeing that she was unmoved, Qingfeng thought to himself, if I can't beat her later, you'll still need me to save you!
I don’t know why the Emperor ordered to protect this woman from a small country?
Qingfeng stopped persuading him. After responding, he went to the other end of the palace and lured the killers one by one.
a long time.
The other three killers were attracted by Qingfeng's movements and followed him. Qingfeng deliberately slowed down his pace and disappeared after reaching Yunfei Pavilion.
Just as the three assassins were looking at each other in confusion, a cold and pleasant voice came, "Didn't you come here to kill me? What are you standing there for?"
The three killers were startled and suddenly looked in the direction of Yun Zheng.
In the darkness of the night, a stunning young girl in plain clothes was seen standing under the eaves, holding a long brush between her slender white fingers. Her movements were careless, and her laziness gave people a sense of mystery.
The three killers first looked around to see if there was any ambush.
As a result, no other aura was detected.
One of the killers asked, "Are you Yun Zheng?!"
Yun Zheng smiled lightly, "Exactly."
Upon hearing this, the three killers frowned and looked at her in surprise and suspicion.
The girl in front of them was completely different from what they had imagined. She was so calm!
"You all have to leave your lives here today, right? Because..." The fact that I can practice cultivation must not be spread out!
"Swish, swish, swish—"
The brush revealed a sharp blade and split into three parts, heading towards the three killers.
The three killers raised their swords to block, then looked at each other, jumped off the roof, and quickly attacked in the direction of Yun Zheng.
Yun Zheng raised her hand, and a bright yellow rune appeared in front of her.
"Flames turn into guns!" Yun Zheng shouted.
In just a moment, the bright yellow rune transformed into an imposing flaming spear, emitting rich spiritual power. She raised her hand and grasped the flaming spear.
“clang!”
With a crisp sound, the spear flew into the air and swept across the necks of the three killers.
The three killers were horrified and took several steps back. There was a bloody mark on their necks caused by the strong wind.
How is that possible!
This person is definitely not the rumored good-for-nothing Yun Zheng!
She has psychic powers! And she can use advanced runes!
That useless Yun Zheng must have known that assassins were coming and set up an ambush to deal with them!
Even Qingfeng, who was observing secretly, couldn't help but be shocked. That attack just now definitely had the power of a great spiritual master!
"You are not useless Yun Zheng!" said a killer.
Yun Zheng sneered, "Whether I am Yun Zheng or not, I'm afraid you won't know until you go to hell."
After saying that, she stabbed at them with a spear in her hand. Each attack contained spiritual power, and the attacks became more and more fierce!
The three great spiritual masters and the killers of the seventh and eighth levels were not to be trifled with either. They immediately joined forces to attack Yun Zheng.
Yun Zheng was able to do it with ease at the beginning, but later on, she felt a little short of physical strength and spiritual power. This made her realize that she not only had to improve her cultivation, but also had to train her body, as both were the long-term solutions.
"Crash—"
Yun Zheng was stabbed in the back by someone, blood splattered everywhere. Yun Zheng couldn't help but groan, and held the spear tighter.
She waved her hand and a gust of wind blocked the attack of one of the killers. There was no pain or struggle on her beautiful face, only a strong desire to fight!
