The feathers that flew towards Han Jiuli and the others were all blown away by a sudden gust of wind.
However, the attacker's attacks did not stop.
A ghost-like figure appeared. In the dim sky, the other party suddenly attacked Su Xuan. As the other party launched a surprise attack, a sharp feather blade could be vaguely seen between the other party's fingers.
Han Jiuli was a palace guard, so he was quite knowledgeable.
Combined with the feather that had fallen from the sky earlier, he immediately felt a chill down his spine as he realized what had happened.
It was obvious that someone wanted to rob and kill Mr. Smith!
Previously, in the Left Sima Liu Yi's residence, the vulture had suddenly appeared. Although it was killed by Teacher Su, he was ultimately negligent and did not notice that the vulture had quietly snuck into Liu Yi's residence.
Thinking about it now, he felt a lingering fear.
Now, seeing that someone was trying to kill Su Xuan, he immediately drew the sword hanging at his waist and charged forward, slashing at the attacker.
Just as his sword was about to strike the ghostly figure, his sword missed.
It was literally empty.
His opponent's speed was too fast, so fast that it surpassed the speed of his sword.
The other party's goal seemed to be to kill Su Xuan. Or rather, killing Su Xuan was their top priority.
Before that, he could temporarily ignore Han Jiuli and the other guards by Su Xuan's side.
Su Xuan knew the other party's purpose and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Although he knew that Ji Wuye was bold enough to send someone to kill Han Fei after Han Fei ruined his plan in the original novel, he was still shocked.
It should be noted that Han Fei's identity was extraordinary. Even though he was not valued by the King of Han, he was still a well-deserved prince.
However, Ji Wuye did not care.
So what if Ji Wuye sent someone to assassinate him?
At the end of the day, although he was favored by the King of Han, there was still a prerequisite for all of this, and that was that he had to live.
A living Su Xuan was a true immortal master. A dead Su Xuan was nothing more than a worthless corpse.
With a thought, Su Xuan waved his sleeves, and a strong gust of wind appeared, forming layers of obstacles in front of him. At the same time, he retreated, temporarily putting some distance between him and the newcomer.
He hadn't met the newcomer for the first time.
Earlier today, he had met Mo Ya, the leader of the Hundred Birds Organization, in the imperial court. He was also a sharp blade under Ji Wuye's command.
He was the one who did the case of the ghosts and gods.
Mo Ya stared at Su Xuan for a long time.
Ever since the Jade Tiger's death, Ji Wuye had harbored the intention to kill Su Xuan. He had once asked him to send a message to the tide demoness through a secret channel, asking her to kill Su Xuan. However, the tide demoness unexpectedly failed.
The task of killing Su Xuan was handed over to him.
Unfortunately, Su Xuan had been staying in the palace the entire time, so even if he accepted this mission, he wouldn't be able to find any good opportunities.
Until…Liu Yi died.
Su Xuan was recommended to be the chief judge of Liu Yi's case.
In order to investigate the cause of Liu Yi's death, he had no choice but to leave the palace. Of course, this was not necessarily a good opportunity, but Mo Ya believed that if Su Xuan left the palace, he would be able to find an opportunity as long as he stayed outside for a little longer.
Earlier on, Ji Wuye wanted to see what Su Xuan could find out and also wanted to know who the real culprit behind Liu Yizhi's death was. Thus, he didn't act rashly against Su Xuan.
However, the real murderer of Liu Yizhi's death was confirmed to be a vulture.
Su Xuan accepted Madam Hu's invitation and left the palace once again to head to Liu Yi's residence, allowing Mo Ya to find a good opportunity.
When Su Xuan entered Liu Yi's residence, he had been hiding in the dark.
At the same time, the vulture had snuck into Liu Yi's residence and was killed by Su Xuan. He was very surprised. He didn't expect that he would bump into the vulture right after the general gave them the order to search for the vulture's whereabouts. Furthermore, the vulture was dead.
Then, he realized that this was a godsend opportunity.
There was no better chance to kill Su Xuan than this.
As long as he killed Su Xuan on his way back to the palace, he could push all the blame to the dead vulture.
He claimed that the vulture had hidden in the dark because Su Xuan had found out the truth about him plotting against Liu Yi. Thus, it took advantage of Su Xuan's return to the palace to attack him.
Although Su Xuan was proficient in many mysterious techniques, his martial arts were mediocre. Even the guards were killed by the vultures.
They were unable to come to their rescue in time. Although they had successfully killed the vulture, Su Xuan was already dead, and they were powerless to turn the situation around.
In a short period of time, Mo Ya had even thought of a reason.
As for the fact that Su Xuan met Han Fei after leaving Liu Yi's mansion, Han Fei and the others also saw the vulture's corpse.
He also had a new explanation.
When Vulture was still the Three Hair-Cutting Wolves, he had faked his death once, and that time, he had managed to hide it from Liu Yi.
This person was proficient in the art of faking his death and escaping the world, so Su Xuan didn't really kill him.
Instead, he faked his death to escape.
After realizing that it was an excellent opportunity, he launched an attack and killed Su Xuan in one go.
Mo Ya had thought of a good reason, but when he attacked Su Xuan, he realized that Su Xuan was stronger than he had imagined.
First, a gust of wind blew away the hidden weapons that he had used to kill the guards behind Su Xuan. However, that wasn't important. Bai Feng would deal with those fellows. His mission was to kill Su Xuan.
However, by the time he reached Su Xuan, the endless wind brought him great trouble.
This made him unable to use the wind power to display his lightness skill to the extreme.
The so-called Qinggong was actually a movement technique that followed the flow of air. The members of the Hundred Birds Organization were named after birds, so most of their Qinggong imitated the flight of birds.
Although it was fast, it had a huge limitation.
"Is this the ability to summon the wind?"
Mo Ya thought in his heart. Then, a cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Although you are extraordinary, you will definitely die today!”
In an instant, Mo Ya mobilized all the internal strength in his body. Internal strength surged out of his body to resist the surrounding wind.
Afterimages flashed past, and in an instant, several afterimages appeared in the air at the same time. He forcefully broke through the obstruction of the wind and arrived in front of Su Xuan.
According to the realm theory that Madam Mingzhu had explained to Su Xuan earlier.
Mo Ya had reached the stage of releasing Genuine Qi. He was obviously an Inborn expert.
