The patrolling guards of Marquis Xiao's mansion were not particularly strict.
After all, Ying Zixuan was the boss who did nothing.
The guards were on duty as usual.
Coupled with the fact that no one in the Inner Hall dared to approach, it saved the guards a portion of manpower.
Of course.
After all, it was their first day working in the Marquisdom. They definitely did not dare to really be perfunctory.
Thus, the guard commander personally led the patrol and kept watch. His attitude was still acceptable.
Suddenly!
"Hmm?"
The guard leader turned around and looked at the wall!
"Milord, what's wrong?"
"Nothing much. Continue patrolling. Don't slack off!”
"Here!"
The guards were on high alert.
But what they didn't know was that there were already two men in black who had silently infiltrated the marquis's manor.
……
In the inner court.
The two swordsmen in black looked at each other.
Then, they raised their hands to adjust the bamboo hats on their heads at the same time. The infiltration process was easier than expected.
To first-rate killers like them, those patrolling guards were no different from decorations.
But…
"Can you feel it?"
"What?"
"As soon as I entered this mansion, I felt as though I was being stared at by many pairs of eyes.”
"I don't think so. I think you've just walked too much at night.”
"What do you mean by walking too much at night? Look…"
The bamboo hat swordsman pointed at a tree branch in the inner courtyard. There was a crow squatting there, staring straight at them.
The man in black glanced at it and then said speechlessly,""It's just a crow."
The bamboo hat swordsman pointed again.""There's one over there too."
The man in black interrupted impatiently: " We are not here to look at birds. We have to find out how Xiao Hou cultivates the Longevity Gu. Otherwise, we will not be able to explain to Lord Zhao Gao when we go back."”
One could not easily fail when working under the Zhongche Prefecture Magistrate.
They had to succeed on this trip.
Otherwise, he would definitely be severely punished when he returned.
He might even lose his life.
"I keep feeling that something is wrong.”
The bamboo hat swordsman's intuition was sharper.
The moment he entered the marquis 'manor, he inexplicably had a strange feeling as if a knife was on his back!
He couldn't tell what was wrong!
The moonlight was still like water!
The dark clouds in the sky seemed to have dissipated a lot!
It caused the starlight to pour down!
It added a sense of peace to this quiet night!
Everything seemed so natural!
However, it seemed to be too smooth…
"No!"
The bamboo hat swordsman's expression suddenly changed slightly. He raised his hand and patted the shoulder of the black-robed man in front of him, wanting to remind him to be careful!
This place was definitely not simple!
In the end!
The man in black turned around…
"Chi!"
A poisonous dagger pierced through the bamboo hat swordsman's heart!
" Huh!??"
The bamboo hat swordsman was suddenly attacked!
He was stabbed by his most trusted companion. His eyes widened in disbelief!
What was going on?
"You!"
The bamboo hat swordsman's heart was pierced, and he immediately felt the world spin. He quickly lost control of his body.
Before he died.
The only thing he noticed was that there seemed to be black crows circling in the black pupils of the black clothed man.
It was obvious.
The bamboo hat swordsman was his most trusted companion.
In that instant, he had already been hit by the Illusion Raven's eye technique!
"Let's go…"
The bamboo hat swordsman used the last of his strength to unsheathe his sword!
The hilt of the sword struck the man in black's chin from bottom to top.
Instantly!
" Huh!??"
The man in black woke up.
However, the first thing that entered his eyes was the companion whose heart he had pierced with his own hands.
"Bamboo hat!"
The man in black didn't even think and reached out to support the swordsman.
What a pity!
"Bang!"
The door to the inner hall's bedroom opened!
"Clang!"
A sword light cut through the dark night!
He did not give the man in black any time to react!
The famous sword, Chun Jun, carried a supreme sword qi and directly pierced through the black-robed man's body, nailing him to the huge tree in the inner courtyard!
At this point.
The fate of the two ants was completely settled.
"Bang!"
The door to the bedroom closed again, as if it had never been opened.
The Mirage Ravens around the inner courtyard looked at the two corpses on the ground and did not move.
Until…
"Lord Marquis, what happened?”
The leader of the guards walked in from outside in a panic.
He was the only one who dared to enter.
The other guards were afraid of being beaten to death and did not dare to approach the inner courtyard.
"This…"
The guard leader looked at the two corpses in the inner courtyard and immediately became even more flustered.
This happened on the first day of patrol.
As the leader of the guards, if he were to be held accountable, he would definitely have to bear the consequences!
Immediately after.
The guard commander quickly arrived in front of the giant tree. The corpse of the black-robed man on it was continuously dripping with blood.
"A hundred meters…"
The guard leader immediately turned around and estimated the distance between the giant tree and the bedroom.
There was at least a hundred meters between them!
This meant…
"Using qi to control the sword, a grandmaster of the sword, his internal strength has reached at least the level of a great grandmaster!!”
When the guard commander thought of this, he could not help but gasp!
He was able to be appointed by the First Emperor as the commander of the guards of the marquis 'manor, so he naturally had this bit of insight.
From the tragic state of the corpse and the position where the famous sword pierced into the giant tree.
He was almost certain.
The man in black was killed by a single sword strike, and he did not even have the chance to put up a decent resistance!
"I didn't expect that the Seventh Young Master would have such attainments in the Tao of the sword at such a young age. It seems that it is true that His Majesty entrusted the Seventh Young Master to spy on the path of immortality.”
The leader of the guards didn't believe in Wen Dao Changsheng at all.
Martial artists had a natural aversion to the Yin Yang School's methods of deceiving people.
But now, he had witnessed Ying Zixuan's strength with his own eyes.
There was no longer any contempt or doubt in his heart.
As a matter of fact, with Ying Zixuan's sword control technique, it was more than enough to make the commander of the guards kneel down and acknowledge him as his master.
At this moment.
"Hmm?"
The guard leader walked up to the bamboo hat swordsman's corpse.
He immediately frowned.
What was going on?
The dagger stabbed into his heart!
The Bamboo Hat Swordsman's eyes were wide with anger. It was obvious that he was filled with disbelief before he died!
"Internal strife?"
The guard commander made the first judgment.
But he could not understand.
How could two first-rate assassins suddenly have an internal conflict after infiltrating the inner court of the Marquis's mansion?
Moreover, it could even cause one party to die on the spot.
Could it be…
The leader of the guards raised his head in realization.
The next moment!
Only then did he realize that there were dozens of pairs of pitch-black eyes staring straight at him!
Black Crow!
Nearly a hundred black crows!
Densely packed!
“……”
The guard commander's body trembled, and he felt a chill rise from the back of his neck!
He now somewhat understood.
He understood why two first-rate killers would kill each other…
The attainments of a sword grandmaster had never been something that the seventh young master could rely on. Only the Gu Dao technique that killed people invisibly was worthy of the name of Marquis Xiao!!
