capital.

Dark alley.

The fighting continued. Although there were many killers, they were still no match for Lu Yuan. Before long, nearly ten people had fallen!

Falling in front of a master like Lu Yuan, death seems to be the only way out.

"Brother?"

Pang Xiaoxiao's nervous inquiry came from the carriage. She could hear all the sounds of fighting outside clearly. She immediately forgot about her hunger and was only left nervous.

"Don't worry, as long as I'm here, nothing will happen."

Li Wuji squinted his eyes, looked at Chu You opposite him from a distance, and said lightly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the killers standing on the wall and the dozen or so killers behind the carriage finally took action and rushed towards the carriage at the same time!

Li Wuji's face turned cold, his body suddenly filled with murderous aura, and he tapped the mechanism of the sword box with his palm!

At the same time, Lu Yuan also discovered the situation here. After driving away the two killers, he turned around and attacked several killers who flew down from the wall!

As the sword box opened, Li Wuji grasped the Tianxing Sword, and with his toes touching the shaft of the carriage, he rushed behind the carriage like lightning, and swung his sword decisively towards the dozen masked killers!

The sound of the sword is mixed with the dazzling sword light, and it disappears in an instant!

"ah!"

Several shrill wails sounded at the same time!

Li Wuji swung his sword, and in an instant all eight killers fell to the ground, their limbs and broken arms flying everywhere!

With just one move, he killed half of the group of killers behind the carriage!

Seeing this scene, all the assassins couldn't help but take a breath. They never knew that the assassination target had such strong skills!

But at this time it was too late to feel and regret, and Li Wuji had already swung his second sword!

There was another loud noise of the sword, and then I saw more than ten killers behind me all falling into a pool of blood!

It was too fast. Chu You, who was approaching the front, had not recovered yet. Li Wuji had already returned to the chariot shaft with the Tianxing Sword and was looking at Chu You coldly.

Lu Yuan also killed the last killer with his sword, then slowly turned around and looked at Chu You.

It was originally an interception with a large number of people, but now Chu You is the only killer left!

"You said you wanted to avenge Tu Jiu, but you broke your promise."

Li Wuji put away the sword box, looked at Chu You who was full of anger and unwillingness, and said with disdain on his lips.

"Even so, I will never regret it! You won't lose until the last minute!"

Chu You glared at Li Wuji fiercely, gritted his teeth and said, wishing he could eat Li Wuji alive.

Although the defeat was certain, he still refused to bow his head and seemed to be preparing to fight until the last moment.

"If you answer me a question, I can promise not to kill you! Let you at least get out of this alley alive!"

Li Wuji looked coldly at Chu You, who looked stubborn, and said in a deep voice.

After hearing Li Wuji's words, Chu You couldn't help but feel a little shaken, and subconsciously froze.

In this world, no one is really afraid of death, and Li Wuji is also afraid. It's just that he cares more about something than death, so he has the courage to face this fear.

"My patience is very limited."

Li Wuji looked at Chu You who was still hesitating and said in a deep voice.

"What do you want to know?!"

After Chu You hesitated for a moment, he hurriedly asked.

"What is the relationship between Tu Jiu and Qilin Mountain Sancai Temple?!"

Li Wuji asked in a deep voice.

"He is the last disciple accepted by Qilin Master!"

Chu You was stunned for a moment, and then answered without hesitation.

"Does the blood baby thing have anything to do with him?!"

Li Wuji asked.

"It has something to do with the Three Talents Concept, but it has nothing to do with him. He is only responsible for collecting money for the Three Talents Concept."

Chu You said without thinking.

After hearing Chu You's answer, Li Wuji nodded silently. Now he finally understood why Tu Jiu could cover the sky with one hand in the underground world of the capital. Unexpectedly, he was actually a disciple of the Qilin Celestial Master!

"Master Jiu died because of you. Sancai Guan will not let you go! Qilin Heavenly Master will not let you go either!"

Chu You sneered, looked at Li Wuji coldly and said.

"Is this why you are so confident?"

"But you are overthinking it. I have never paid much attention to the Three Talents, Qilin Celestial Master? Sooner or later, he will end up like Tu Jiu."

Li Wuji sneered and said lightly.

Seeing Li Wuji's confident look, Chu You was stunned for a moment, his face looking a little solemn.

"You can go."

Li Wuji raised his hand to signal and said calmly.

Chu You hesitated for a moment, tentatively took a dozen steps back, and found that Li Wuji did not stop him, so he gritted his teeth, turned around and ran out of the alley.

Looking at Chu You, who had been looking at death just now, but now running away, Li Wuji couldn't help but sneered, put away the sword case, sat on the shaft of the carriage, grabbed the reins, and drove the carriage slowly outward.

Drive away.

Lu Yuan didn't know when he disappeared into the alley.

"It's okay, I'll take you to eat roast duck."

While driving, Li Wuji turned his head and glanced at the car behind him, and said with a smile.

Pang Xiaoxiao in the carriage finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Li Wuji's words.

In a dark alley leading to the east gate, Chu You, who had fled, looked back and checked. Only after confirming that no one was catching up did he finally stop and lean against the wall, breathing heavily.

He had been following Li Wuji for many days, and tonight he finally found an opportunity. However, he never expected that not only did Li Wuji bring a highly skilled guard with him, but he himself was also a terrifying master!

After breathing for a while, Chu You finally regained some strength, breathed a long sigh of relief, turned around and continued walking towards the city gate.

Since the assassination failed, his only choice is to run away, far away and never come back!

But the moment Chu You turned around, he suddenly couldn't help but froze on the spot, his expression stiff!

Under the moonlight, a thin figure stood in front of him without knowing when, holding a cold sword in his hand!

Lu Yuan!

"Didn't he just say that he wanted to let me go?!"

"Are we going to go back on our word?!"

Chu You stared at Lu Yuan and asked loudly with an unwilling face.

"Young master only said that you can leave that alley alive, but he did not say that you can leave the capital alive."

Lu Yuan shook his head and said softly.

Hearing Lu Yuan's answer, Chu You was stunned again, and then showed a sad smile.

This is indeed the case. These were Li Wuji's original words at that time.

"Even if you kill me, you can't save him!"

"The feud between you and Qilin Mountain has already..."

Chu You spoke unwillingly, but before he could finish his words, a figure flashed and Lu Yuan had already passed by him!

A stream of blood shot out along Chu You's neck!

As the body fell heavily to the ground, Lu Yuan went straight back in the direction Chu You came from without looking back, and his sword was already sheathed.

...

Three days later.

Yunxiao Palace.

"My son, please see your Majesty!"

Li Jingyao rushed into the hall in a hurry and bowed respectfully to the empress who was playing with her male favorite.

"Why are you so panicked?! There are no rules!"

The empress' face darkened and she asked dissatisfied.

"There is news from Li Wuji!"

Li Jingyao looked up at the empress and said with some joy.
