"What?"
A leader of the assassins shouted when he heard this.
What was going on?
Why were they surrounded by soldiers?
Before the people in the house could react, the 1,000 elite soldiers of the North Manor Army had already surrounded the house.
Then, a wave of arrows greeted them.
"Whoosh!"
The 300 archers pulled their bowstrings and shot out a large number of arrows.
The rain of arrows that blotted out the sky instantly tore through the night sky and covered the houses.
After falling into the house, a series of miserable cries sounded.
There were at least twenty assassins in the room.
There were also many experts.
However, facing the rain of arrows, they did not dare to raise their heads easily. They could only use tables, chairs, cabinets, beds, and other objects to block them.
The few people who reacted slowly just now had already been shot like hedgehogs.
The hidden killer kept cursing.
"This is crazy. How many people are there?”
Although there were many things in the house and they could use the walls to cover themselves, the rain of arrows did not stop. If this continued, they would be buried under the rain of arrows sooner or later.
These assassins were all experienced and naturally knew that it was not a problem to continue. However, in the face of this endless rain of arrows, there was nothing they could do.
He couldn't possibly rush out of this rain of arrows, right?
Please, they were only Postnatal realm martial artists. The stronger ones were only at the peak of the Postnatal realm. They could not rush over at all.
Even if it was a Connate Realm martial artist, facing such a dense rain of arrows, it would be useless. Perhaps they could kill them, but they would probably be injured.
If they were unlucky, they might die.
Finally, the rain of arrows stopped.
However, before these killers could show themselves to observe the situation, the second round of arrows came whistling.
This…
All the assassins were cursing.
How to play?
How should he play?
If this continued, they would really be wiped out.
The soldiers of the North Manor Army did not care what the killers were cursing at. They just carried out the order and killed the enemies.
Three rounds of arrows were fired first, and then the sword-shield soldiers were sent into battle.
There were only two rounds left. There was still one more round.
Sure enough, after the third round of arrows were fired, the remaining ten killers were about to lose their minds.
In the second round of shooting, another eight people were gone.
Counting the four people who were missing at the beginning, there were already twelve people missing.
There were a total of twenty-two killers, but twelve of them had already disappeared before they had even met their targets.
This…
However, although these assassins were about to lose their minds, as assassins of the Qingyi Pavilion, their professionalism was still passable. In the end, they forcefully held back.
If he had charged out in the rain of arrows just now, he would only be courting death. He could only wait for the rain of arrows to pass before charging out again.
Of course, he wouldn't be following these soldiers at that time. He would have to escape first.
Finally, after three rounds of arrows, the sword-shield soldiers went into battle.
Just as the 200 heavy-armored sword-shield soldiers were about to enter the room, several figures rushed out from inside, all of them heading towards the soldiers.
However, when these killers drew their swords and stabbed at the soldiers, they realized that these soldiers were all wearing heavy armor.
The swords only created sparks when they stabbed into the ground. They were not able to threaten the lives of these sword-shield soldiers at all.
The soldiers of the North Manor Army were well-equipped, so they were naturally not something that could be broken by the long swords in the hands of these killers.
Even if he used internal strength, it was not that easy to penetrate the heavy armor.
In the end, it was still a matter of ability.
One had to know that it was very difficult for a Postnatal realm martial artist to fight their way out of a tight encirclement when faced with a large number of elite soldiers.
Moreover, the soldiers of the North Manor Army were all elite soldiers who were fearless. They did not know what death was, nor did they know what pain was. Therefore, even though many of them were killed by the killers, more soldiers would still surround them.
As more and more North Manor Army soldiers surged forward, the killers 'counterattacks became weaker and weaker. Then, a few of them were captured.
Su Mu had ordered them to be kept alive.
Moreover, he had repeatedly emphasized that at least two of them had to be alive.
Therefore, the soldiers of the North Manor Army did not choose to kill everyone. Instead, they captured two killers alive and escorted them back.
The operation this time was at night.
Previously, Su Mu had given the order. Xiao Ting had personally investigated the news before he ordered the North Mansion Army to move out. Furthermore, he had given instructions according to Su Mu's orders.
One thousand elite soldiers of the North Manor Army were enough to take care of twenty-two killers.
To be honest, sending out 22 killers was already a big deal given the situation of the Qingyi Pavilion. They couldn't possibly send out Xiantian realm martial artists, right?
This wasn't appropriate.
Besides, 22 killers were already a very important task.
This was because the target was a military officer with thousands of soldiers under him.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have sent so many assassins.
However, even though there were so many assassins, they still did not even see their target before they were completely annihilated.
Su Mu naturally didn't need to ask about interrogations.
He only needed to know that the killers had been eliminated, that there were survivors, and that they were being interrogated. That was enough.
After all, there were still many government affairs to be done. There was no need to ask about this matter. He only needed to know the results.
And this result should be coming soon.
It was indeed very fast.
The next day at noon, Xiao Ting came to report.
"I got it. It's Qingyi House."
Hearing this, Su Mu was stunned for a moment, but he quickly recovered and said indifferently,"Qingyi Tower? Alright, as long as you know."
Outside the courtyard, Lian Xing's voice slowly sounded,""Someone from the Qingyi Pavilion? This assassin organization is secretive and arrogant. They won't stop until they achieve their goal. Aren't you afraid?”
Yao Yue could not stand her sister's question, so she interjected.
"Lian Xing, look at his mansion. How many people are there inside and outside? In addition, there are martial grandmasters. What do you think the Qingyi Tower can do?”
With Su Mu's current defense, even if the Qingyi Pavilion sent people over, they would not be able to succeed.
Yao Yue realized that Su Mu was really afraid of death.
There were no outsiders in the manor. Other than the soldiers of the North Manor Army, there was only Xiao Ting and the two of them, the honored guests.
As for cooking and other chores…Well, they either let the soldiers do it or did it themselves.
In short, there were no servants or slaves in the residence.
Yao Yue was speechless. Was he that afraid of death?
However, since you're so afraid of death, why would you dare to keep me?
You trust me that much?
Yao Yue could no longer see through Su Mu, and she was getting more and more curious.
"No, no, no. The main thing is that you, Soliciting Moon Palace Lord, are here. With you here, who would dare to come?”
Su Mu did not know what Yao Yue was thinking, but he did not mind flattering her, so he complimented her.
