At this moment, the Kasumi family was in a mess.
It was unimaginable for a group of assassins to openly attack the inner part of the Xuanling Palace.
Under the illumination of the fire, figures flickered and voices were chaotic, making it difficult to distinguish between friend and foe.
In order to save their lives, they had to fight and flee.
There were no longer any rules and responsibilities to speak of.
This was the same for the assassins.
The secret orders they received were different.
The departure time was also different.
They were not allowed to negotiate with each other or reveal the details of the mission.
If a part of the plan was split up and each team carried out a part of it, perhaps they could achieve the effect of having their own duties and order in chaos.
However, their missions would have a great impact on the other party.
They were supposed to assassinate the higher-ups quietly.
However, someone had set fire to create chaos and alarmed the entire Kasumi family.
There were also those who were protecting the personal safety of a certain higher-up, but ended up having to kill each other when they bumped into an assassin.
Furthermore, he received a secret order to assassinate his colleague.
As a result, all the Assassins were in danger.
Even if some of them completed their mission, it would be difficult for them to escape from this extremely chaotic situation.
The Kasumi clan was like a swamp.
Whoever stepped in would be unlucky.
The initiator of all this chaos was Guan Yue.
It was he who had used Yunjing Yaojue to send secret letters to his assassins, death warriors, private soldiers, and even the guards and servants in the mansion.
The goal was simple.
It was to blow up the matter.
Exposing the problems of the Kasumigami family on the surface.
This way, he would have a reason to intervene.
" As expected of a high-ranking noble. A mansion built as big as a palace. If it weren't for Yunjing Yaojue's memory, it would have taken a lot of time to find someone from the Kasumigami family to be the owner.”
On the roof of a certain hall in the inner residence of Xia Da's house.
Guan Yue looked at the hall opposite him. With his eyesight, he could easily see the scene in the room through the open window.
It could only be said that the current situation was not good.
Several assassins charged into the main bedroom.
Although they were entangled by the four personal guards, the assassins specially selected by Guan Yue were not easy to deal with. After each of them was given the Yao Dao, they had the strength of a banquet official and had the advantage of numbers.
He had completely blocked his escape route.
The guards couldn't even escape with their master. They could only struggle on their deathbeds like trapped beasts.
"…Almost."
Guan Yue did not choose to attack immediately. Instead, when the guard was about to give in, she stood up from the roof and slowly raised her hand. She mimicked the action of a pistol and aimed it at the assassin who was fighting in the room from afar.
The spiritual pressure that he had restrained to the extreme fluctuated for a moment.
Immediately after, a talisman the size of a fingernail appeared on his fingertip.
The electric arcs danced, incomparably dazzling.
Broken Face could turn a Void Flash into a Void Bullet and increase the speed of flight. Guan Yue's Ghost Dao would only be more refined and condensed than theirs.
A mere Dao Breaking Stage Four, White Thunder, seemed to have turned into an electromagnetic sniper cannon.
A white lightning bolt as thick as a finger shot out with the talisman as the muzzle. It flew at a speed of 1,000 meters per second, nearly three times the speed of sound.
The bedroom of the host had become a battlefield.
It was a mess. The ceiling and walls had huge holes.
A young girl in a kimono was hiding in a corner with tears glistening in her eyes. She was trembling. She looked to be at most 13 or 14 years old and seemed to be a junior high school student.
Since ancient times, women have been in charge of the Kasumi Road family.
And she was the 17th generation leader--
"Oh oh oh!"
The assassin holding the Yao Yao Sword was surging with an evil spiritual pressure. Even the gravel around his feet turned into powder and floated into the air, mixing with the spiritual vortex around him.
"The spiritual pressure has increased again…?!”
One of the four personal guards had been knocked to the ground, and the remaining three were also covered in wounds. Their hands were shaking as they held the knife.
Seeing that his opponent didn't seem to want to continue fighting with him and decided to use even more power to end the battle quickly, he couldn't help but feel even more desperate.
"It's really difficult to deal with. So many people have come, but they've been delayed for so long. Fortunately, it's chaotic outside, and there's no one to support us…Looks like this mission isn't that difficult.”
An assassin sneered, wanting to further attack the guard's mentality.
This move was indeed useful.
When they heard that the situation outside was not good, the guards 'hearts immediately sank. They originally thought that if they persisted, someone would come to help, but now it seemed that…they might not be able to wait.
However, at this moment, a white lightning flashed across everyone's vision.
He only felt that his vision was blank.
" What happened?!"
"Be careful not to let the target escape!"
"Protect Lord Qian Dian Qing Palace!"
They shouted, but no one dared to act rashly.
When their vision was restored, the assassins were shocked to find that their companion, who had been frantically increasing his spiritual pressure, had fallen to the ground. There was a seemingly empty hole between his eyebrows.
However, it was emitting heat and a burnt smell. There was no blood or anything else flowing out.
"This is…"
Before the guard could finish his sentence, another bolt of lightning flashed by, leaving a mark on his retina. An assassin subconsciously used his Yao knife to block in front of him, but he was pierced through by the knife and his body.
"Uh…"
She covered the hole in her throat.
He was speechless.
With a bang, he fell to the ground and stopped moving.
Seeing this, the remaining three assassins felt their scalps explode. They frantically injected their spiritual pressure into the core of the Yao Yao blade, causing the eyeball core that seemed to be alive to wriggle and grow a large number of tentacles, which wrapped around their arms.
He charged at the girl hiding in the corner without caring about anything else.
No matter what, he had to kill the mission target. Otherwise, even if he could leave this place alive, he would not have a good ending.
"Stop them!"
The three guards also realized that reinforcements had arrived, and their morale soared. They also charged at the assassin without any regard for their lives.
Even if they died together, it was worth it.
However, they had completely underestimated the power of the Yao Yao blade.
In other words, he had underestimated Kasumi Dalu's secret saber and sword forging technique that had been passed down for generations.
The more spiritual power the Yao Yao knife absorbed, the stronger the feedback. It seemed fair, but in fact, the feedback power was far more than the absorbed spiritual power. That was because the price was not only spiritual power, but also the user's corroded body.
In the end, it wasn't the human's rationality that controlled the knife, but the knife's bestial nature that dominated the human.
These assassins were already approaching this critical point.
And the power that was exchanged for such a huge risk was not something that a few guards could withstand.
He was sent flying almost instantly.
" Lord Qian Dian Qing Palace?!"
The girl heard the guard's desperate roar, but she could do nothing. She could only watch as the assassin raised his giant sword that was about the same size as her and slashed down.
Then…he was stopped in midair by a finger, unable to move.
