Chapter 115 (1/2)
At this moment, the Heavenly Blade Troops were already at the end of the street. With a sudden command, all 500 of them stopped in unison without any delay! Even the horses did not resist in the slightest or let out a neigh of unwillingness! These troops were like potent killing machines on the battlefield!
The 500 of them got off their horse together, landing with a unified ‘thud’. From afar, it seemed as though the leader of the troops was handing out instructions. The next moment, the few hundred people were reduced to almost nothing, sprinting in different directions and leaving one section behind to watch the horses.
Ling Tian revealed a cunning smile as he said, ”Let me test their combat prowess.”
Ling Jian began to itch with excitement, ”Young n.o.ble, let me go!”
Ling Tian quickly held Ling Jian's excited body back and said quietly, ”This time, there is no need for you to go. You have just killed NanGong Le; your body shape and strength is already revealed. It wouldn’t be good for you to take action again. They will be able to figure out easily that you were the preparator from your swordplay and the injuries on the corpses. If that’s the case, then things wouldn’t be fun anymore. We need to have something unexpected for more fun. This time, let your young n.o.ble show you a fantastic show. Then, I will bewilder that old fogey YangKong Qun to make him more confused. Only then will it be fun.” As he said that, he chuckled, looking in a direction.
As Ling Jian followed Ling Tian’s vision, he almost burst out into laughter. In that direction was a carefully concealed figure in the darkness, XueLeng! At this moment, XueLeng seemed to be inching about in the darkness, as though he had the intention to leave.
Along the way here, XueLeng had been extremely careful as he eavesdropped on the conversations around him. Only after listening to a few different conversations did he understand what was going on.
It turns out, the young n.o.ble of the NanGong family, NanGong Le, was a.s.sa.s.sinated by a mysterious expert on the streets. Yang KongQun flew into a rage and sent out all of his forces to apprehend the culprit!
After knowing that this matter was completely unrelated to the Yu Family he was serving and their mortal nemesis, Water of Heavenly Wind, he naturally could not be bothered about the matter any longer. At the same time, he also became relaxed as he searched for an opportunity to return to the Ling mansion. However, being in the center of the investigation radius, he must exercise extreme caution. If he were to cause this incident to be related to his little princess, he would never be able to redeem himself, even with death.
Just when he was thinking about how he should leave, a section of orderly troops walked towards him slowly. While XueLeng was on top of a roof, he could also feel the dense killing intent emanating from the troops! They were obviously well-seasoned troops who had no qualms about killing! XueLeng’s heart tightened as he thought, ”The Yang family actually has elite troops like these!” If there were only a dozen of them here, he would not place them in his sights at all. But, there were probably tens of them present currently. If XueLeng’s location were to be revealed, they were more than capable of trapping him into a bitter battle! Thinking about this, XueLeng hurriedly shrunk his body deeper into the darkness.
”Pa! Pa! Pa!” Three bricks exploded by XueLeng's side! The crisp sound spread out in the darkness as XueLeng felt his soul jump out from his body!
Which idiot threw these bricks to my side?! XueLeng almost wanted to scream.
But now, he no longer had the time to grumble. Now that he was found out, things were extremely grave! From afar, the black dressed men swiftly ascended the roof and sprinted over.
”He’s here!” A loud shout sounded from below! With the sound of a few ‘swish’, the black dressed men were all on the roof. Their blades reflected the moonlight, covering XueLeng with the reflection as they slashed down towards him.
XueLeng no longer had the time to be frustrated as his figure drifted into the sky. His snow like sword was unsheathed as he brandished it in the air. As the sounds of metal clas.h.i.+ng rang in the air, XueLeng had already parried the incoming weapons as he began to retreat.
