Time flew by.
In the blink of an eye,
Another two days passed.
On this day…
The blazing sun hung high in the sky, scattering golden sunlight.
Xianyang.
Both sides of the street were as lively as ever.
The peddlers were shouting with red faces.
People came and went on the streets.
Pedestrians of all colors passed through this ancient and strict city.
Occasionally, he could see many Qin soldiers in excellent armor walking in groups, passing through the streets, responsible for maintaining order in Xianyang City.
In this chaotic world, it was not easy to have such a city where the people lived and worked in peace.
Only Xianyang, where the Great Qin Empire's Imperial Palace was located, could have such a scene where the people lived peacefully.
"The security in Xianyang is too tight.”
"If I wasn't smart, I would have been exposed just now.”
He saw a man in gray clothes walking through the noisy and lively street. He was muttering something, and his eyes were filled with vigilance.
He raised his head.
Looking around, Thief Zhi silently retracted his gaze.
"Is this Xianyang?"
"What a bustling city…"
He sighed.
Not bad.
He was one of the commanders from the Mo clan, Thief Zhi!
In the pugilistic world, there had always been the reputation of the king of thieves.
It was said that…
As long as it was an item that this person wanted to steal, he had never failed.
As long as it was a treasure targeted by the King of Thieves…
No matter how deep you hide,
No matter how many people are sent to guard it,
In the end-
They would definitely be stolen by this person and escape.
It was precisely because of this,
In the pugilistic world, Thief Zhi was known as the King of Thief Kings.
The world is full of thieves,
He had never failed!
From this, it could be seen that
How high was Thief Zhi's lightness skill?
If it wasn't for his superb Lightness Skill, Thief Zhi would have been in jail long ago.
Relying on his peak Qinggong…
Thief Zhi was almost invincible.
As long as he made a move,
It would definitely be easy!
Over the years,
The various large sects and even the Great Qin Empire had placed a bounty on him and sent people to hunt him down.
Unfortunately,
In the end, he had indeed gained nothing.
The title of the world's number one divine thief was naturally not just an empty title.
He was extremely good at jumping on roofs and walking on walls, and his lightness skill was unparalleled in the world.
As of now,
He had never encountered a Thief Zhi before.
Someone who could be compared to him in terms of Qinggong attainment.
Not a single one!
Even a martial arts grandmaster would not be able to stop him.
"Several days…"
"Finally, I successfully arrived at Xianyang.”
Feeling the hustle and bustle of Xianyang, Thief Zhi couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Just like that,
He had traveled thousands of miles from the Mohist City of Traps to Xianyang.
As for the reason for rushing to Xianyang?
Naturally, he had an important mission!
It was an arduous task personally given by Yan Dan, the Mo family's giant.
A few days ago…
The fact that the abandoned disciple of the Mo family, Zhang Ye, had become the sect master of the Gongshu family with a foreign surname had caused a collective shock among the higher-ups of the Mo family. They had unanimously voted to immediately send people to assassinate Zhang Ye!
Now,
Robber Zhi was tasked with this assassination mission, and had specially traveled thousands of miles to Xianyang.
Just to assassinate Zhang Ye!
If it wasn't for the fact that Zhang Ye posed a huge threat to the Mo Family…
As one of the commanders of the Mo clan, Thief Zhi would not personally make a move.
"With just the identity of an abandoned disciple of the Mo family, he became the number one monster in history who shook the world!”
"I have to admit…"
"Zhang Ye, you're really an amazing genius!”
"Even Old Man Ban once gave you a very high evaluation. He said that you have the terrifying ability to shake the entire Mo family's foundation with your own strength!”
"But it's a pity."
"Your talent is simply too outstanding. The entire Mo Family can't tolerate your existence.”
"If you don't die, the Mo family will have trouble sleeping and eating in the future.”
"In order to ensure the safety of the Mo Family in the future, I can only eliminate you from this world today.”
"Don't blame me…"
Thief Zhi thought so.
In fact,
He and Zhang Ye did not have many grudges.
He didn't really hate her.
Just because…
He was carrying the mission of Yan Dan, the giant of the Mo family, which made him rush to Xianyang to assassinate Zhang Ye.
Regarding the task that Yan Dan had given him, Thief Zhi naturally did not dare to be careless.
"Although I don't have any grudges with you.”
"Blame it on…"
"You chose to join the State of Qin!”
"He became the lackey of this tyrant Ying Zheng!”
"If that's the case, I won't tolerate you even more.”
Thief Zhi's eyes were sharp.
The Mo family had been enemies with the Great Qin Empire for many years.
Over the years,
The Qin Country had never given up, sending out an army of iron cavalry to try and destroy the Mo Family.
The number of disciples of the Mo family who had died under the weapons of the Qin State's iron cavalry was almost uncountable.
The grudges between the two sides had long been carved into their bones.
He had already reached…
If you don't die,
I will die!
Whoosh!
Letting out a breath, Thief Zhi suppressed all the thoughts in his head.
Although he wasn't too keen on assassinating Zhang Ye, he was still a little worried.
However, in order to prevent the future of the Mo family from being in danger, he had to be careful.
He had to strangle Zhang Ye in the cradle.
He could only say.
Zhang Ye was too outstanding!
He was already so outstanding that it made the entire higher-ups of the Mo family tremble in fear.
The terrifying talent that Zhang Ye possessed deeply moved the higher-ups of the Mo Family and made them shudder.
If Zhang Ye was not the abandoned disciple of the Mo Family, then the entire Mo Family would be ecstatic for a monster like Zhang Ye.
Unfortunately…
Zhang Ye had become the abandoned disciple of the Mo Family!
He also joined the Qin country and opposed the Mo family from then on.
Therefore,
The higher-ups of the Mo Family agreed unanimously.
If it was possible, he had to get rid of a terrifying genius like Zhang Ye as soon as possible!
To avoid endless trouble in the future!
He could not allow the other party to continue growing.
"The security in Xianyang is too tight."
"Even if I succeed in assassinating Zhang Ye, it will take me a lot of time and effort to escape from Xianyang.”
Thief Zhi silently calculated in his heart.
He had to consider many factors.
Before the assassination,
He needed to find a way to escape.
Otherwise,
Once Xianyang City closed its gates, it would be impossible for him to escape.
Of course.
He was confident.
Even if Xianyang closed the city gates and started a trap, he was confident that he could escape unscathed with his unparalleled lightness skill.
After a quarter of an hour,
Thief Zhi had successfully planned a way to escape Xianyang after the assassination.
Next,
It was time to get down to business!
At that moment,
Robber Zhi took out a piece of silver and asked about Zhang Ye's residence in Xianyang.
After getting the answer,
He was alone and rushed to the location of the Zhang residence without hesitation.
Another fifteen minutes passed.
Thief Zhi's footsteps gradually stopped.
He raised his head.
His eyes flickered as he looked at the huge mansion in front of him with a deep gaze.
It was clearly visible…
Right above the entrance of the towering mansion.
Two large words were carved on a plaque.
Zhang Manor!
Seeing this, Thief Zhi's eyelids drooped slightly, his eyes hiding killing intent.
"We're here!"
"This place…"
"It's Zhang Ye's residence."
"The assassination plan has officially begun!"
For this assassination, Thief Zhi had made ample preparations.
Before the assassination,
He had chosen countless safe escape routes.
Furthermore,
He also used some silver to bribe some spies.
These spies naturally couldn't participate in the assassination plan…
All he needed to do was transmit some emergency signals to him when necessary.
This way…
He would be able to observe any movement around the Zhang residence at any time.
After doing all this,
Thief Zhi was ready to start the assassination plan.
The way he did things…
He had always liked to strategize.
He had to take all the variables and unstable factors into consideration and think of the corresponding countermeasures before taking the final assassination action.
In order to ensure the success of the assassination, Thief Zhi was extremely well-prepared this time.
"As far as I know."
"Although Zhang Ye has extremely terrifying talent and aptitude, and he once relied on extremely terrifying mechanical products to instantly kill a top-notch expert at the level of a martial arts grandmaster.”
"But in reality, he is just an ordinary person.”
"In other words,"
"He doesn't pose any threat.”
"The only things that can threaten me are the mechanical creations he created.”
"But if I act fast, I can restrict his movement ability before he can react. Then, he would be at my mercy.”
Thief Zhi narrowed his eyes as he thought to himself.
Information gathered from various sources.
All of them made one point.
Zhang Ye himself did not possess any martial arts cultivation.
He was just an ordinary genius with monstrous talent.
That was all!
Taking this into consideration, Thief Zhi's tense mood relaxed.
Even if the other party was known as the number one monster in history…
Even if the other party had once used machinery to heavily injure a martial arts grandmaster.
However, Robber Zhi was still full of confidence in this assassination.
"I don't believe it…"
"This child carries his mechanical creations with him 24 hours a day.”
"As long as he slackens a little, my chance will come!”
"As long as I make sure that he doesn't carry any mechanical products on him, I can successfully assassinate him!”
After making up his mind,
Thief Zhi's feet lightly stomped.
Swoosh--
An ear-piercing sound rang out.
His unique Lightning-Body Technique, Lightning Divine Steps, was quickly activated.
His body seemed to have transformed into a beam of light.
In an instant,
Thief Zhi's figure strangely disappeared on the spot.
Fleeing into thin air,
Without leaving a trace.
At this point,
The assassination plan had officially begun!
