Zi Lan Xuan had already been exposed to all the assassins. In Xin Zheng, the capital of Han Country, eight people were gathered in a secret old mansion.
"The news is confirmed. Ying Zheng is in the Purple Orchid Pavilion.”
"In the past two nights, a few waves of assassins have already died there.”
The eight people in front of him were the assassins of the State of Qin, the Eight Petites.
As the name suggested, it was made up of eight people with different martial arts skills, appearances, and personalities. It was rumored that some of them were extremely greedy. Every time they killed someone, they would sweep away all valuable items. Some even took pleasure in killing people and tortured them to death. They could not bear to gamble on their corpses.
Among the eight of them, Master Gen, Dui Li, Qian Sha, Li Wu, Granny Kun, Zhen Hou, Xun Feng, and Kan Shu ranked first. The strongest was Master Gen, the leader of the Eight Petites.
"What did Han Country's Nightfall say?”Master Gen spoke.
A little girl next to him was playing with a mechanism and said softly,"The Blood-robed Marquis of the Night Group of Han Country has already agreed to join forces and kill Ying Zheng.”
" The time is tonight at midnight. They are holding Ying Zheng's guards, Ge Nia, Wei Zhuang, and Violet Girl, the owner of Violet Orchid Pavilion.”
Upon hearing this, the eight of them revealed killing intent in their eyes, thinking that they would be able to kill Ying Zheng, the King of Qin State, tonight.
"Master Gen, I feel a little uneasy. I don't know if it's my imagination, but this mission isn't that simple.”
Suddenly, a charming voice sounded. Everyone looked over and saw that it was Li Wu from the Eight Petites, the enchanting female assassin.
Someone was unhappy with this. An old woman walked out and said in a cold tone,"Li Wu, what do you mean by that? Are you doubting our strength?”
"That's right. With the addition of the Blood-robed Marquis, the Four Vicious Generals, and the White Bird, how could they not kill a mere Ying Zheng?”
" Don't be careless. I have a bad feeling about this." Li Wu's brows furrowed slightly, appearing very worried.
Her heart was not calm, as if this operation would fail, but everyone ignored it and did not take it to heart at all.
"Alright, Liwu, have you been too tired recently? Go and rest well. Tonight's operation cannot fail.”
"Humph!" Li Wu had a look of dissatisfaction on her face as she turned around and left with her graceful body.
........
On the other side, in Ji Wuye's secret chamber in the Han Country's General's Mansion, a group of experts from the Night Organization gathered.
The leader of the group was none other than the Blood-robed Marquis, Bai Yifei. He was a famous general of Han Country, and his strength was unparalleled.
"The killers of the State of Qin, the Eight Petites, are preparing to kill Ying Zheng tonight. What do you think?”
The other members of the Nightfall fell silent.
"I think it's good to kill Ying Zheng, but we don't have to participate in this personally. We just need to stop Ge Nie, Wei Zhuang, and Purple Girl.”
Mo Ya spoke and gave his opinion. This was what they had agreed upon.
The Blood Red Marquis nodded and sneered." Very good. We will act according to plan tonight and get rid of this bold and reckless Qin King. Then, the Qin Country will be thrown into chaos. This will be a good opportunity for our Han Country."”
"Go down and prepare!"
The Blood Strike Marquis waved his hand and told everyone to get ready. Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.
"Ying Zheng, oh Ying Zheng, you shouldn't have come to the capital of Han Country alone. This is a disaster that you can't escape from.”The Blood Strike Marquis looked at the sky and muttered to himself.
It was not only the killer regiment of Qin State and the Night Organization of Han State, but also many killers from all over the world who wanted to kill Ying Zheng.
These people were all here to kill Ying Zheng. They had accepted an assassination mission, and their target was none other than the King of Qin, who had come here.
Purple Orchid Pavilion, Nongyu's boudoir.
"Young Master, I feel a storm coming. Tonight might not be peaceful.”
Violet Maiden looked up at the sky from the window and felt an oppressive aura, as if there was an undercurrent surrounding Violet Orchid Pavilion.
This undercurrent was naturally aimed at Xia Chen, the king of Qin. The killers were ready and waiting for nightfall.
"Don't worry, I dared to come here because I wanted to lure the snake out of its hole and capture all these people in one fell swoop.”
Xia Chen's face was calm and his tone was filled with absolute confidence. Violet Maiden and Nongyu were shocked and remembered his mysteriousness.
"I'll make the arrangements!" Violet Maiden thought for a moment, but she was still worried and went to make arrangements.
Xia Chen smiled lightly as he watched Violet Maiden leave. He hugged Nongyu's waist and the two of them quietly looked at the hazy and shocked expression outside the window.
"Young Master, Young Miss, it's time to eat.”
At this moment, a maid came in from outside the door. It was Hong Yu. When she saw Xia Chen, her face turned red and she lowered her head to bring food in.
"Alright, sit down and eat together.”
Xia Chen and Nongyu turned around and sat down at the table. They called Hong Yu to sit down and eat together, but the latter did not dare.
In the end, he did not force her and let her be. After all, women in ancient times were like this, especially maids who did not dare to cross the line.
Xia Chen was drinking and eating. He was not worried about the current situation because he had absolute confidence in his own strength.
After the meal, Xia Chen listened to the music and time passed. Soon, night fell.
As night fell, a cold aura spread, making people unconsciously shiver. It seemed a little bone-piercing.
The cold wind blew. In the dark night, black shadows appeared quietly and surrounded Zi Lan Xuan. They were all armed with weapons and their eyes were filled with killing intent.
They were all assassins, and they were all capable of reaching out their hands. They leaped onto the roof and began to attack Zi Lanxuan.
Clang!
Suddenly, there was a clang as a powerful sword light slashed past, instantly killing a few men in black. A young swordsman landed on the roof.
"Xiao Zhuang, these people don't come with good intentions.”
Immediately after, screams came from the other side. A few assassins had been killed. Ge Nia quickly jumped and landed beside Wei Zhuang. The two of them raised their swords and looked into the dark night.
A terrifying killing intent was approaching from there. It was getting stronger and stronger, causing the two of them to become somewhat solemn.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
As expected, not long after, a group of black shadows appeared on the roof of the opposite building. There were seven of them, and the leader was none other than the Blood Red Marquis, Bai Yifei.
"Night, the Blood-robed Marquis, Bai Yifei?”
Wei Zhuang enunciated each word clearly as he read out the other party's background. He was the leader of the Han Country's Night Organization and his six powerful subordinates.
"Wei Zhuang, Ge Nie, Zongheng, if you join forces, no one can escape. Tonight, your opponents are us.”
Bai Yifei smiled faintly and waved his finger lightly. The six powerful subordinates beside him launched their attacks at the same time.
Clang!
Clang clang clang...
A dangerous battle began. The descendants of Gui Gu, Zong Heng, Wei Zhuang, and Ge Nia all used their full strength.
The opponent was very strong, and the young Wei Zhuang and Ge Nia had to be extremely careful. One wrong step could lead to eternal damnation.
As for the Qin King, they could not help him. It was already good enough that they could only stop Night.
"Ying Zheng is inside, go!"
Black shadows surged out of the darkness. They were agile and came and went as they pleased, quickly leaping towards Zi Lanxuan.
Dozens of Jianghu assassins arrived and charged straight at Purple Orchid Pavilion. At the critical moment, a dazzling sword ray was drawn from Purple Orchid Pavilion.
Puff!
Two assassins were killed on the spot, and their throats were cut with a sword. The assassins saw a charming woman in purple clothes and purple hair standing there. It was Violet Maiden.
"Wei Zhuang, Ge Nia has been stopped. Now, Violet Girl has also been stopped by the other assassins.”
In the darkness, the Eight Petites finally made their move.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Eight powerful black shadows rose into the air and appeared in Violet Maiden's line of sight. They lunged at Zi Lanxuan, but she did not stop them. Instead, she stopped the other assassins.
Thump...
At this moment, a faint sound of a zither was heard. It was particularly abrupt in the dark night and attracted the attention of countless assassins.
The sound of the zither was faint and murderous!
