Chapter 356 (2/2)

The three copper gongs nodded slowly and looked at the man in Black. To be able to force Lord Xu, who had just entered the spirit forging stage, into such a sorry state, one of them must be in the spirit forging stage.

At this moment, noisy and muffled footsteps could be heard. A group of 50 Imperial saber guards had arrived.

“Lord Xu, please return to the Yamen to recuperate. Leave these three to us,”

Tong Gong, who was speaking, walked out of the alley and ordered the Imperial Sword guards who had rushed over, “”Escort Lord Xu back to the Yamen, and leave ten men behind to help me deal with the body.”

“Yes,” the leader of the Royal sword guards cupped his fists.

After Xu Qi ‘an left, the three copper gongs returned to the alley. When they touched the body, the Man in Black, who had been standing still, suddenly broke into two halves. His upper body and lower body were separated, and a slanted wound appeared on his waist, parallel to the incision.

All kinds of internal organs mixed with blood flowed on the ground.

The gongs frowned, somewhat disdainful and somewhat surprised.

I remember that Xu ningyan’s ultimate technique was some kind of extremely powerful saber technique. Back then, he was able to injure the Vermillion silver Gong with a single Saber Strike.

“Yeah, it looks like it’s more powerful now. This blade killed three people, and one of them must be in the spirit-forging stage.”

The three of them looked at the man in Black at the front. It was obvious that he was the strongest of the three.

“Eh, why doesn’t he have a weapon?”

The other two men in Black were equipped with a standard long knife and a military crossbow. Only this Man in Black was empty-handed, without any weapons.

Was it picked up by Xu ningyan?

With suspicion, they examined the body of the Man in Black by themselves. When their fingers touched the body, they felt a metallic texture.

The corpse was still in the state it was in when it was channeling its energy.

“What?”

A series of question marks appeared in the minds of the three people at the same time.

After a few seconds, they finally reacted, and their hearts were filled with an absurd and horrified emotion.

“Copper, copper skin and iron bones …” A copper Gong muttered.

…….

Half an hour later, the night watchman arrived at the Yamen.

Divine sword Hall.

After Zhang Kaitai, who was on duty tonight, received the news, he gathered all the silver gongs to discuss the assassination of Xu Qi ‘an.

Yin Luo, who had just led a team to survey the scene, reported, “”From the assassination to the killing of the enemy, the whole process took less than half a quarter of an hour. The three assassins seemed to have known Xu ningyan’s route and had laid an ambush on the road.

after a short confrontation, they chased Xu ningyan into an alley and were killed with a single strike.

Zhang Kaitai nodded and looked at the other Yin Gong. He was in charge of examining the corpse.

“The assassins use the most common long saber,” the silver Gong said in a deep voice.”The three great imperial army camps and the five great imperial City guards all use this kind of saber. Even the guards of some nobles and ministers used this. We can’t find any clues from the weapon.

“In addition, we found a magic weapon, a military crossbow, on one of the assassins. It’s a military crossbow that can pose a threat to those in the spirit-refinement realm. However, this still wasn’t a breakthrough.

“The situation of the Bureau of works and Bureau of military personnel embezzling is very serious, and it is also very common for the princes and ministers to privately buy and sell military supplies. Over the years, countless magical artifacts and armaments have been sent out. He couldn’t find out at all.
