Li Ye enjoyed a very high prestige among the people, and people bowed to him wherever he went.
But he deliberately ignored the other officials.
The officials were so angry that they blew their beards and glared at the people who were working.
But those people ignored them.
Li Ye saw this and found it extremely funny.
Having lost the support of the people, he is not worth their affection at all.
When we got to the riverbank, we saw even more people working there.
A large number of stones were tied together with straw ropes and poured into the gap.
Some people are also reinforcing other river embankments to prevent more embankments from being washed away when heavy rain comes.
Li Ye was watching the reinforcement of the river embankment.
Someone had already quietly approached.
Li Ye had already noticed it, but pretended to know nothing.
Still chatting enthusiastically with the Governor and Wei Guang.
The two were ecstatic to see that the progress was going very smoothly.
Find various topics to attract Li Ye's attention.
Suddenly, four people rushed out from the crowd, holding pistols and stabbed Li Ye fiercely.
The attack was extremely ruthless.
In the blink of an eye, he pounced in front of Li Ye.
Lin Yue just snorted coldly and attacked instantly.
“Ding-ding-dang-dang…”
With a loud noise, all four assassins were killed.
Seeing that the assassin craftsmen were also frightened and fled in all directions, the scene became extremely chaotic.
Soon more people rushed forward.
Divided into two teams, half charged towards Lin Yue and the other half charged towards Li Ye.
The officials nearby saw the assassin attack and quickly dodged to the side.
He doesn't care about Li Ye's life or death.
His eyes were full of smug sneers.
In their view, there were only three women around Li Ye, and Zhao Wudi was standing far away with his guards.
There was no time for rescue.
Three women alone could not stop these desperate assassins.
Li Ye stood there motionless, as if he was frightened silly.
Xiao Cui also took out a dagger and hid it in her sleeve.
Princess Ruyue drew her sword and stopped the person who was rushing towards her.
The two sides fought very fiercely.
These assassins are all trained death warriors, and they all fight with an extremely desperate style, only attacking and not defending.
He wanted to die with Lin Yue and Princess Ruyue, giving others the opportunity to assassinate Li Ye.
But they never expected that Princess Lin Yue and Princess Ru Yue were so powerful in martial arts.
Moreover, the two men's swords could cut through iron like mud, and they easily cut off the weapons in their hands.
Seeing that the attack was going to fail, Zhao Wudi led the guards to rush over.
If they delayed any longer, not only would they lose the chance to assassinate him, but they would also be unable to escape.
After a feint, he took a few steps back to create some distance, then pulled out a hidden weapon and shot it at Li Ye.
Suddenly, hidden weapons were everywhere, especially those that glowed blue under the sunlight. It was obvious that they were poisoned.
Even if the bullet hits the skin a little, the person will die instantly.
Princess Lin Yue and Princess Ru Yue fought hard, but they were unable to stop all the hidden weapons.
There were still several fish that slipped through the net and flew towards Li Ye.
At this moment, both the assassin and the official who ran away had a look of joy in their eyes.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
Suddenly, several stones appeared and knocked all of Li Ye's hidden weapons away.
The assassins were all stunned.
Fang Qi, who was flying towards the stone, looked at him.
It turned out that two old men ruined their good deeds.
The assassins roared and split into three teams, and several of them rushed towards the old man.
The two old men were Xiao Xianbei and Long Ruoyun, two master-level masters.
If the assassin knew their identities, he would never dare to attack them even if he was beaten to death.
Long Ruoyun raised his hand and threw out a handful of stones.
Faster than a bullet.
“Puff, puff, puff…”
The stone seemed to have eyes, accurately hitting each assassin and knocking them to the ground.
The eyes of the people around me almost popped out of their heads.
Unexpectedly, the stone he threw casually knocked down more than a dozen assassins.
This must be such a powerful martial art that ordinary people can hardly imagine it.
All the assassins who were hit were seriously injured and could not stand up for a while.
At this time, Zhao Wudi arrived with his men: "Catch all of them and interrogate them strictly!"
The assassin knew the general trend.
Once caught, there will be endless interrogation, which is worse than death.
They all bit the poison in their mouths and died on the spot.
Zhao Wudi was extremely angry when he saw this.
"Damn it! How dare you commit suicide!"
Li Ye remained very calm and showed no sign of panic from beginning to end.
Li Ye said, "Don't be angry, drag all these people out and burn them.
Send someone to investigate the backgrounds of these assassins and see who they've been in contact with. We'll definitely be able to find some clues."
"Yes!" Zhao Wudi accepted the order.
Have his men take away all the assassins' bodies and dispose of them.
He stayed by Li Ye's side.
Although all the assassins that appeared have been killed, there is no guarantee that there are still assassins hiding in the crowd.
We must do our best to protect Li Ye's safety and never let him take risks again.
Wushuang and Qin Qingxue stayed in the crowd together, watching the assassin about to succeed.
Even if there is a hidden weapon that can hit Li Ye, he will definitely die.
But he never expected that two old men would appear and save him at the critical moment.
Especially when they saw Long Ruoyun's face, Qin Qingxue and Wushuang were struck by lightning.
His eyes widened in disbelief.
They never dreamed that a master-level expert from the Dayuan Dynasty would appear here.
Especially Qin Qingxue, she was so scared that she was trembling all over.
Just by receiving guidance from Long Ruoyun, his strength improved by leaps and bounds.
You can imagine how terrifying a grandmaster-level expert is.
Qin Qingxue was completely scared now.
This is definitely not a coincidence. It is very likely that Long Ruoyun appeared here to protect Li Ye's safety.
Long Ruoyun felt that someone was staring at her, and she felt something in her heart.
His eyes flashed like lightning as he turned his head and looked at them.
Qin Qingxue and Wushuang lowered their heads quickly, especially Shiwushuang, who reacted very quickly and quickly pulled Qin Qingxue to hide in the crowd.
But how could their speed possibly keep up with Long Ruoyun's gaze.
When Long Ruoyun saw the two of them, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but he did not expose them.
As for Xiao Xianyan, it was impossible for the two people's little tricks to be hidden from him.
"Hmph, this assassination is indeed related to Yunlu Pavilion!" Xiao Xian said coldly.
"The people from Yunlu Pavilion didn't have time to take action. It seems we acted too early." Long Ruoyun said.
"It doesn't matter! Li Ye said before that he didn't want to reveal that he knew martial arts.
Although your rescue will shock the other person.
But after all, you can't stay by Li Ye's side forever. Yunlu Pavilion will try its best next time and send more experts.
Then I can catch them all in one fell swoop!"
Xiao Xianbei said.
Long Ruoyun's eyes lit up: "This idea is really good!
Yunlu Pavilion is becoming more and more rampant. It's time to teach them a lesson."
