Chapter 429
429 Assassination along the corridor
A shadow flashed in front of his eyes, and his feet landed on the ground. Xia Pingan saw Hua Yi walking out of a door almost at the same time as him.
They were finally in a magnificent palace, which was not as confusing as those places before. They were in a magnificent veranda in the palace, which was decorated with carved beams and painted rafters. Outside the veranda was a garden, in which various famous and unknown flowers and plants were competing with each other, making it pretty boisterous.
If Xia Pingan had looked at the garden before, he would have thought that it was just a garden. However, now that he looked at the garden again, he could already find some differences in it. The arrangement of the flowers, plants, and trees in the garden had the taste of an array and a faint killing intent. Xia Pingan could see the traces of an illusory array from the flowers and plants. It was a killing array covered with an illusory array.
Within this divine Palace, there were dangers everywhere.
“Senior Sister Hua, are you alright?” Xia Pingan took the initiative to greet him.
It had been three days since they last met, but Hua Yan did not seem to have changed at all.
“I’m fine. I’ve only been trapped in the formation for three days and haven’t completely broken out yet. What about you, Junior Brother long?” Hua Yan’s expression did not show any signs of frustration or vexation. Instead, she was in high spirits and had a smile on her face. It seemed that she had gained something from the eight formation diagram in the past three days.
I’m almost the same. I’m as timid as Senior Sister Hua. Xia Pingan smiled.
Neither of them asked the other what they had gained or what formation they had comprehended. This question was very private, and the relationship between the two was not that close, so they avoided it.
this place seems to be in the inner part of the divine Palace. Xia Pingan glanced around, ” Senior Sister Hua, Do You Know the Way? ” The corridor led in two different directions. Where to go now was the problem in front of them.
True Lord netherworld River had never mentioned this place to him.
However, the only good thing was that after coming here, Xia Pingan found that she could use her divine power freely. The skills of a Summoner were back.
Hua Yan turned around and looked at the place, deep in thought. Junior Brother long, please wait a moment. I think a Senior Sister from the Black Dragon sect came here before. The environment here is similar to a place I know of. Let me try the Kasaya.
“Senior Sister Hua, please go ahead!”
Hua Yan didn’t speak; instead, she just took out a bottle of colorful fine sand from her space-teleportation equipment. After opening the bottle, she gently sprayed the colorful fine sand into the air. The colorful fine sand then fell down like a rainbow. After falling to the ground, the fine sand formed a water current and flew towards one direction of the winding corridor.
Seeing this, Hua Yan’s face revealed an expression of relief. He let out a long breath.”This is it. We’ll just follow the sand!” After he finished speaking, Hua Yan followed the sand and walked in one direction.
Xia ping ‘an also followed her. Senior Sister Hua, where are you going? ”
“This should lead us to the palace where we can retrieve the key. We’ll just follow the rainbow sand. This rainbow sand was refined by one of my senior sisters. The last time she came here, she used this corridor to enter the palace where we can retrieve the key. This rainbow sand can follow the Qi of my world, so there shouldn’t be any danger along the way!”
“Senior Sister Hua is indeed well prepared!”
only two people from the Black Dragon sect enter this place at a time. How can we not be more prepared!
The two of them followed the flowing rainbow sand along the corridor. The scenery on both sides of the corridor kept changing. As expected, they did not encounter any danger along the way. However, after walking for five to six minutes, a corpse suddenly appeared in the corridor in front of them. The corridor was covered with blood and stank.
The corpse was broken into three parts from the head to the waist. It was a miserable death. It should have been cut off by a sharp blade. From the attire of the corpse, it should belong to one of the people from True Monarch Wu Chen’s side.
Xia ping ‘an and Hua Yan looked at each other, and their faces suddenly became serious.
The corridor here was not dangerous, but it did not mean that the people who came here were not in danger.
Xia Pingan immediately summoned the Child of Fortune and had him Scout the way ahead.
The two people continued to walk in the corridor. After passing by a garden, they saw another person lying on the ground in front of the corridor.
From a distance, it was a beautiful woman in a green dress. She seemed to be able to move. Hearing the footsteps, The Woman in the Green Dress raised her head, revealing her bloodstained face. She raised her hand in their direction, as if she wanted to ask for help. Then, she passed out again.
“Junior martial sister Qin!” Hua Yan’s expression changed drastically when he saw the green-dressed woman on the ground. He wanted to rush over.
However, the Child of Fortune was even faster than her. The Child of Fortune had already discovered the target and made a special hand gesture to Xia Pingan.
wait a minute, Yingluo. Xia Pingan grabbed Hua Yan.
Hua Yan immediately turned around and glared at Xia Pingan. what are you doing? ”
Xia ping ‘an squinted his eyes and looked at The Woman in the Green Dress who had fallen to the ground in the distance. Senior Sister Hua, the corpse we saw just now was killed without any warning. I saw that the wound on the corpse was very flat, as if it was done by a summoned assassin. There is no trace of a fight in this corridor, so Senior Sister Hua’s junior Sister should not be a weak person. How could she be lying here for no reason? and it was such a coincidence that she saw you the moment you arrived. He made a gesture to ask for help, and then fainted without saying a word. Senior Sister Hua, don’t you think this is very strange?”
Hua Yan wasn’t a fool. As soon as Xia Pingan spoke, she reacted. you mean Yingluo? ”
try it and you’ll know, ” Xia Pingan said. Without saying a word, he threw a fireball at The Woman in the Green Dress who had fallen to the ground.
Just as the fireball was about to land on her, The Woman in the Green Dress, who had been pressed to the ground, jumped up. With a slash of the short sword in her hand, the fireball thrown by Xia Pingan was cut in half and dissipated. Then, the black mist around The Woman in the Green Dress exploded, revealing the figure of a dragon-slaying assassin.
The figure flashed and charged at the two of them. The cold dagger in his hand flashed with a bloodthirsty light.
what a thief! Hua Yan was furious. He was shocked and angry at the same time. With a wave of his hand, hundreds of icicles formed a huge net and shot towards the assassin, leaving no blind spots. The Assassin’s figure was like smoke. The dagger in his hand lit up with a bright flame and directly shattered seven or eight icicles. He then rushed forward again.
Xia Pingan’s small and exquisite net spell covered her head.
Although the net spell was a minor summoning spell, it could also be very effective at the right time and place, just like now.
A small net interrupted the Assassin’s attacking rhythm, causing him to stagnate and have no choice but to jump up to Dodge.
Xia Pingan’s seven stars sword whip had been waiting for him for a long time. He had already calculated all of the Assassin’s actions. The assassin leaped up, and the sharp Light of the Seven stars sword whip flashed. One of the dragon-slaying Assassin’s arms was directly chopped off by Xia Pingan. It disappeared into a flash of light, and before the assassin could land on the ground, Hua Yan’s attack had arrived.
The woman’s second wave of attack was like a raging Dragon.
The dragon-slayer assassin that was summoned and already injured was instantly turned into ashes by the burning fire Dragon.
It was already difficult for a Dragon Slayer assassin to face a Summoner at the six sun realm. Furthermore, after losing its concealment, the Dragon Slayer assassin turned from an assassin to a powerful attacker. Many of its specialties and abilities could not be used. Furthermore, when it encountered Xia Pingan and Hua Yan, who were two powerful characters at the six sun realm, it was easily destroyed by the two of them in just a few breaths.
Junior Brother long, thanks for your reminder. Without your reminder, I might have been taken advantage of by that assassin! Hua Yan thanked Xia Pingan.
“You’re welcome. Senior Sister Hua is just too worried. In fact, that assassin has many flaws. I’ve encountered a similar assassination before, so I’m a little more cautious.”
“You actually dared to use my Junior Sister Qin to lure me to death. If I find out who did it, I’ll definitely tear him into a thousand pieces!” Hua Yan’s face was as cold as ice as he gritted his teeth and said.
“The person who summoned the assassin should be in front of us, Yingying.”
“That’s right, that person must be in front. The main hall is in front, let’s go see Qianqian.”
The two of them continued to walk forward. After a few minutes, a brilliant Palace appeared in front of them. Over 10 people were already in a daze inside the palace.
