Wei Xinling.
Bai Su brought Yan Lu along and finally arrived at the Wei Kingdom. The place where the two of them were now was the fief of the Wei Kingdom's Lord Xinling, Xinling.
Sitting in the main hall of the restaurant, Yan Lu was already starving. The moment the dishes were served, he couldn't help but start eating. Although Bai Su was also a little hungry, he still slowly picked up his chopsticks and tasted them.
It had to be said that because it was the Qin Dynasty, it was not like the end of the Warring States Period in history. There were only stewed dishes, but all kinds of dishes. There were even some seasonings that did not exist in China during this period.
The chef hired by the restaurant was also not bad. The taste of the dishes was quite to his taste. He could give it a five-star rating.
As they were eating, they suddenly heard a commotion from the neighboring table.
"Something big happened in the Mausoleum of Trust recently. Have you heard?”A man who looked like a scholar said.
"Of course I know. Go and ask around. As long as one has stayed in the Mausoleum of Trust for more than ten days, who doesn't know about this?”Another man followed the scholar's words.
"Yes, yes, yes. Lord Xinling was assassinated ten days ago. It was said that it was done by a first-class assassin from the State of Qin. It seemed to be a female assassin.”The third man seemed to know more, so he explained to them.
" It is said that the assassin was Lord Xinling's concubine a year ago. She was as beautiful as a flower and was even deeply doted on by Lord Xinling. However, I didn't expect that this woman was actually a network assassin. It's a pity that Lord Xinling's illustrious reputation was ended by a woman.”
"Humph, if it wasn't for the shamelessness of the people of the State of Qin, who sent out a first-class killer, Lord Xinling wouldn't have died just like that.”At another table, a burly man was very disgraceful about the assassination of the assassins sent by the State of Qin. His face was filled with anger.
Listening to the discussions at the nearby tables, Bai Su knew what time it was.
Lord Xinling had just been assassinated, but Bai Su knew that Lord Xinling had died at the hands of the Startling Salamander of his own free will, and the Startling Salamander was already pregnant with Ah Yan.
Moreover, he had just arrived at the Mausoleum of Trust. The next target of the Startling Salamander would probably be him.
After eating, Bai Su brought Yan Lu to a watchtower according to the memory in his mind.
The terrain here was quite dangerous and could only be reached through a chain bridge. Below the chain bridge was a bottomless abyss. If one was not careful, they could only end up with their bones shattered.
……
The sun disappeared and the bright moon rose.
Under the chain bridge, it was like an abyssal beast with its mouth wide open, waiting for someone to fall and become its food.
As time passed, the fog slowly enveloped the area.
At this moment, a slender figure slowly appeared from the fog.
Bai Su sensed something and placed Yan Lu in the tower before looking outside.
He saw a woman with an armored face approaching Bai Su step by step.
This woman was wearing the uniform of a net killer. She was wearing a purple and white striped slim metal combat suit. Her legs and right arm were covered with fish-scale armor. The fish-shaped pattern on her breastplate complemented the style of the Frightening Salamander Sword.
In his hand, a thin sword emitted a cold light. It was the famous sword, the Startling Salamander.
The fifth sword of the Startling Salamander Sword, the King of Yue, Gou Jian, found the famous teacher Ou Yezi to forge it with the pure gold of Kunwu Mountain. It was said that the whale and salamander could go deep into the sea with it.
It had a beautiful appearance, with a salamander in the middle of the handguard and a lotus flower at the end of the sword. There was a short sword hidden in the hilt. The sword head was hollow, and there were three dents on the left and right sides of the sword.
Bai Su looked at the woman and knew that she was the Startling Salamander he had been waiting for.
The Startling Salamander also looked at the man in front of her. This was her mission target, Sword Lord Wu Ming.
The goal of the net had always been to fight to the death, so the Startling Salamander only took a glance before raising the Startling Salamander Sword horizontally. With a stomp of his right foot, his entire body was like an arrow, using the Startling Salamander Sword as the arrowhead as he stabbed towards Bai Su.
Bai Su's expression remained the same, as if the Startling Salamander's sword was not aimed at him.
Seeing the sword tip getting closer and closer, Bai Su finally moved. A jade-like sword hilt suddenly appeared in his hand. This was the reason why the net was chasing him-the Sword of Concealment.
The Sword of Concealment, one of the Three Swords of Confucius, the legendary invisible sword. The sword hilt was like jade, and the blade was condensed from internal strength. Moreover, the blade could be condensed at the front and back of the sword hilt, and the condensed blade would only appear under light.
"You can't see it, you don't know where you touch it, you don't know what you touch.”The edge of the sword is hidden but not exposed, which is called containing light.
The Network liked to search for famous sword experts. After investigating everywhere, they finally found out that the sword was in Wu Ming's hands. That was why they sent the Startling Salamander, who had just finished the mission of assassinating Wei Wuji, to snatch the sword.
Just as the Startling Salamander's sword was about to stab into Bai Su's throat, Bai Su moved the Light Concealing Sword in his hand and used the back of the sword to block in front of him, preventing the Startling Salamander's sword from advancing.
Seeing that this attack had missed, the Startling Salamander circulated its movement technique and retreated slightly. The Startling Salamander Sword in its hand flipped, wanting to slash at Bai Su's neck from the side.
Unfortunately, after Bai Su had completely absorbed Wuming's memories, he could now unleash all of Wuming's strength.
Bai Su's wrist turned slightly, and the Sword of Concealment blocked the salamander's attack once again.
After failing again, the Startling Salamander could only retreat. After adjusting its breathing, it charged forward again. However, Bai Su's strength was far beyond the Startling Salamander's. No matter which direction the Startling Salamander attacked from, it was always blocked by Bai Su.
Bai Su was also helpless. He had already held back. Otherwise, he would have been able to knock down the Startling Salamander with a single sword strike.
After blocking more than ten rounds of attacks from the Frightening Salamander, Bai Su could not take it anymore. He gathered his inner energy into the Sword of Concealing Light once again, and a stream of Sword Qi was suddenly activated, shooting towards the Frightening Salamander.
Seeing Bai Su brandishing his sword, alarm bells rang in the Startling Salamander's heart. She hurriedly activated her movement technique and turned her body to the right, wanting to dodge this sword qi. However, the continuous attacks from before had caused her to be somewhat weak at this moment.
Seeing that the sword qi was about to attack, the Startling Salamander could only hurriedly circulate its internal strength, but it was still hit by the sword qi.
Seeing this, Bai Su felt a little helpless. His Sword Qi was not very strong to begin with, and after being attacked by the Startling Salamander, it hit the helmet instead. Fortunately, he had held back before, or else the Startling Salamander would have been disfigured by this Sword Qi.
Thinking of this, Bai Su was afraid that the Frightening Salamander would continue to tangle with her, so he took advantage of her lack of attention and stepped forward with his lightness skill. He knocked down the Frightening Salamander Sword in her hand and then used the acupuncture technique to stabilize it.
"You are a beauty, why are you a thief?" Bai Su said as he looked at the Startling Salamander, whose face was gradually revealing itself due to the shattered helmet.
"The goal of the Network has always been to fight to the death.”Startling Salamander didn't care about Bai Su's gaze. His voice was even colder.
" You should go…" Bai Su tried to persuade him, but his efforts were futile. He had no choice but to go forward and unseal the Salamander's acupoints.
Although she didn't know why Bai Su would let her go, the Startling Salamander wasn't a pretentious person. Even if he let her go this time, the Startling Salamander wouldn't give up on the mission just because of this.
After giving Bai Su a deep look, the Startling Salamander picked up the Startling Salamander Sword on the ground and turned to leave.
