There was no moonlight in the sky tonight.
The so-called moonless night.
A small town a few miles away from the courier station
Because it was just a town, there was no curfew.
A man dressed in coarse linen clothes walked unhurriedly towards a two-door courtyard in the small town.
This courtyard was definitely not small for ordinary people. It was obvious that he was a wealthy person.
The owner of the courtyard was a merchant.
There are six servants and four maids.
As for the other workers, they lived alone in the shop. As they said, they walked around, but at most, they traveled between the county and the state.
The burly man came to the back door of the house. Knock, knock, knock. After a long knock and three short knocks, the back door creaked and opened a crack. The burly man flashed in and the wooden door closed.
A few breaths later, a dozen black figures wearing black leather armor and black masks appeared. They looked at each other and then dispersed. They silently climbed over the wall and entered the house.
The back house is in the main house.
The owner of the house stood at the side. As his wife, the ordinary-looking woman was kneeling on the seat.
Not long after, a servant girl led a man dressed in coarse linen into the room.
"This subordinate greets the Hundred Households and Chief Banner.”
After the man entered the room, he took quick steps forward. He first bowed to the kneeling woman and then to the man dressed like a wealthy businessman.
"Have you received any news?" The centurion asked.
"Centurion, there is news.”The man took out a bamboo tube as thick as a thumb and handed it over respectfully. The servant girl who brought him in took it and handed it to the centurion.
The female centurion, who was about to open the bamboo tube, suddenly looked up at the door.
The woman's actions naturally attracted the attention of the others. Their expressions changed. Clang! The two servant girls beside her pulled out the soft swords at their waists. The chief flag of the wealthy merchants pulled out a single-handed axe from behind their robes.
The burly man was just about to make his move.
Chi!
A black longsword pierced through the man's chest and pierced through his heart. Then, it stirred and instantly lost its strength and fell to the ground.
At this moment, eight masked and armored warriors holding black longswords had silently entered the room. Outside the door, there seemed to be many people.
"Who are you?"
The centurion's expression changed drastically as he shouted.
From the moment they realized that something was wrong to the moment these warriors entered the room, it was only a matter of seconds.
Even the surrounding doors and windows remained the same, as if they had entered through the wall.
Such methods made the Censorate Black Knights think that these people were spirit cultivators.
However, from the vigorous blood Qi that the other party was currently displaying, he seemed to be an armament expert.
"Censorate, Centurion Black Knights? It's really a big fish." The masked warrior in the lead spoke in a hoarse and cold tone, but from his words, the Black Knights present seemed to sense his excitement.
"Oh right, don't think about calling for help. The Xiantian expert you hid in the neighboring courtyard is already dead.”
"Hiss!"
The masked warrior's words made the four Black Knights gasp.
Inside Ducha Courtyard, inside Black Rider, position from low to high: Bad Commander, Small Flag, General Flag, Hundred Households, Duwei, Thousand Households, Palm Seal Envoy (Palm Seal), Deputy Headmaster, Headmaster.
The person who lived in the courtyard next door was a commandant level Black Knight who was higher than this centurion.
He was an expert in the late stage of the Connate Blood Solidification Realm.
However, he had not expected that such a powerful expert would be assassinated without a sound.
How could these Black Knights, who weren't even at the Xiantian realm, resist?
Although this Centurion was a Spirit Cultivator, he had just broken through to the Yin Spirit Realm.
However, he did not have much magic power.
He didn't dare to casually attack with the flying sword in his arms.
The spiritual perception of a spiritual cultivator was higher than that of warriors of the same realm. She could feel that all the warriors who entered the room were in the Xiantian realm.
The eight Xiantian Realm Martial Cultivator assassins were able to silently assassinate other Xiantian Realm martial artists and enter the room without a sound.
Such a strange and unpredictable killer made the centurion's heart tremble.
"Do you know that we are the Black Knights of the Imperial Court?”The Baihu was prepared to use the Imperial Censorate and the Imperial Court to intimidate the other party.
However, when the centurion finished speaking, the chief banner and the other two maids beside him had strange expressions.
The other party had already bluntly revealed their identities. Now that the centurion mentioned it again, what was the use?
As soon as he finished speaking, the centurion's face turned red.
She had lost her sense of propriety due to her fear just now and had forgotten what the other party had said before.
Threatening him now was simply a joke.
Retracting his thoughts, the centurion said again,""Everyone, what's the matter? If they have a grudge against the commandant, we are willing to shut up and not reveal a single word.”
"Hehe, if you tell me the location of the Imperial Censorate, I can consider letting you go.”
"Rearguard Commandery?"
The four of them were shocked.
The Imperial Censorate's branches in the various provinces were all open to the public.
The ones who truly managed the affairs of the provinces were the Rearguard Commandery and even the Thousand Households.
Many people knew about this matter, but apart from the Black Knights, no one knew the locations of the intelligence nodes in the Commandery, the Thousand Households, and even the low-level Hundred Households.
Moreover, according to different positions and positions, there were more or less people who knew about it.
"You have three breaths of time to consider!”
The masked warrior ignored their shock and continued.
Three, two…
"I…"
A servant girl opened her mouth and was about to speak.
Xiu, a sword light flew, and in the blink of an eye, it arrived in front of the servant girl.
Seeing that the bad commander who was about to speak was about to die.
Clang! Suddenly, a black sword light flashed and flew out. The flying sword that was only a foot long was sent flying. The Centurion who was kneeling on the ground paled and jumped up.
However, just as she moved, a sword light flashed and a huge head soared into the sky. There was still a look of disbelief in her eyes.
Bang!
The corpse fell to the ground, followed by the head.
His eyes were wide open, showing that the Black Knight Centurion had died with grievances.
The leader of the warriors turned his head and looked at the rescued bad commander. His eyes flickered as he asked,""You know the location of the Rearguard Commandery?"
"I know." The bad commander nodded.
"Take her out."
"Here!"
A warrior stepped forward, restrained the delinquent commander, and dragged him out.
Then, the leading warrior looked at the general flag and the last delinquent commander.
After exchanging a glance, the commander gritted his teeth and nodded as if he had lost his breath.
The bad people were changed to the Imperial Censorate, and the establishment was expanded, so there was naturally a shortage of manpower.
A portion of them were newcomers.
For example, this Chief Banner was promoted to Chief Banner because his strength had reached the Tendon Transformation Realm.
As for the centurion just now, he was an old man who was a bad person. That was why he was unyielding before his death.
