In the beginning, he was ranked alongside An Shigeng as a spoiled brat.

After all, the Yin-Yang School had no life-or-death feud with Meng Tian, ​​and (Zhao Haohao) weighed the interests, so retreating was naturally the best option.

The divine blade cleaves through the heart!

Having long been on guard against the assassins from the Luo Wang organization, Bai Feifei, at the instant the blood-red light suddenly attacked, had a crimson moon radiance bloom before everyone's eyes.

A bizarre, crimson blade of light, in a flash of lightning, tore through the sky, slicing through the darkness of the night. Immediately following, a surging, domineering ten-zhang-long blade aura swept away everything in its path.

puff!

A breathtakingly beautiful slash, a chilling and terrifying killing intent flashed by in the instant everyone was engaged in their own battles or lost their composure.

boom!

Then, the blade swept across, and yellow sand surged.

Pan Ying and Yu Chang, who were assassinating Meng Tian, ​​disregarded their deadly strike and hurriedly turned to defend themselves. Even Meng Tian, ​​who was of average strength, was no match for them.

The ten-zhang-long sword aura, whose power was comparable to the Dragon-Slaying Saber Technique, shocked and terrified everyone.

Unexpectedly, Bai Feifei's skill was so profound, and the killing blade energy gathered by her sword technique was even more powerful and indestructible.

Chapter 798 Untitled

Amidst the clash of swords and the shadows of death, annihilation and annihilation reign!

The Sun-Covering Sword and the Blood Jade Demon Blade, both imbued with the spirit of killing and death, measure life and death in an instant by their respective sword energy, saber techniques, and killing intent.

Undoubtedly, all three attempts to obscure the sun have failed.

Although Yan Ri is the leader of the Luo Wang assassins, Bai Feifei is no innocent girl; she is a witch who emerged from the hellish desert.

The Demon Blade's aura is fierce, the Divine Blade's slash is incredibly profound, and the Blood Jade Demon Blade, after being enhanced, is no less powerful than the Muramasa Demon Blade.

With a mesmerizing crescent moon-shaped blade light, an incomparably powerful blade aura and a bizarre, terrifying blade energy tore through the black curtain. The ever-changing winds and clouds of heaven and earth seemed to freeze at this moment, as if split in two by a shocking blade energy.

puff!

To everyone's horror, Yan Ri's once majestic body slowly collapsed.

The leader of the Luo Wang assassins, the former king of assassins, fell forever in the desert, causing Pan Ying and Yu Chang to tremble in fear.

Even Meng Tian, ​​Xing Hun, and Da Shao Siming stared in awe at that graceful figure with flowing robes.

"Crescent Moon Blade Technique!"

Xinghun's pupils contracted, his eyes gleaming with starlight. Even though he had seen Ding Peng wield this sword before, he had never been so amazed.

The earth-shattering blade aura, which flashed by in a mere 733 seconds, and the ten-zhang blade energy that dominated the desert, this strike definitely reached the strength of the top three on the Black List. I never expected that the Zhang family had hidden such deep strength.

"kill!"

Since Luo Wang struck first, Bai Feifei is no saint; she has a long history of ruthless killing.

Moreover, Pan Ying and Yu Chang are both assassins of the same caliber as Yan Ri. If they are not captured now, it will inevitably have a certain impact on the Zhang family in the future.

retreat!

Pan Ying and Yu Chang realized they were being enveloped by Bai Feifei's killing intent and quickly retreated.

They are typical assassins, striking once and then fleeing, unlike top-tier swordsmen like Yan Ri who can maintain high output.

Therefore, the all-out attack that was meant to kill was not entirely successful, and even if the two of them faced Meng Tian afterward, they would inevitably be at a disadvantage.

Moreover, what they were facing was Bai Feifei's terrifying Blood Jade Demon Blade.

But they were fast, and Bai Feifei was even faster. Liu Xu's movements were like a shooting star streaking across the night sky in an instant.

At the same time, the merciless and eerie crimson blade light, carrying the destructive force of thunder, flashed by in an instant.

The blade's energy swept across the desert, scattering gravel into the air.

The two assassins lost their chance the instant they retreated; with a flash of blade, their bodies instantly turned into desiccated corpses.

Faced with this strange sight, no one was surprised at all.

Once one understands that the Blood Jade Scimitar is a terrifying and deadly weapon, the fact that it sucks blood is not surprising.

On the contrary, Bai Feifei's strength was terrifying. In just three breaths, she went from breaking the sun to instantly killing the two assassins, Pan Ying and Yu Chang. Even Xing Hun and Da Shao Siming were terrified by her terrifying strength.

"Thank you for your help!"

With Yan Ri, Pan Ying, and Yu Chang killed, the remaining Luo Wang level-one assassins were no threat at all. Even the Golden Fire Cavalry instantly formed a counter-encirclement, surrounding the Luo Wang assassins in a dense battle formation.

"No need. Young Master saved General Meng this time because he didn't want the border regions to be taken advantage of by foreign tribes."

Furthermore, the general is forbidden from leaving Yumen Pass for three years to invade the Central Plains and seek revenge. At the same time, all supplies for the border army will be provided by the Zhang family.

Upon hearing Bai Feifei's conditions, Meng Tian's heart skipped a beat.

"What do you mean by that? What exactly happened within the empire? How could the Luo Wang and the Yin Yang School assassinate Meng Tian here?"

For a moment, Meng Tian stared intently at Xinghun, his killing intent boundless.

The Luo Wang organization could no longer provide him with an answer, but since Xing Hun was with the Luo Wang organization, the Yin Yang School must have reached some kind of agreement with the Luo Wang organization.

"General Meng is disappointed. We are only acting under the orders of His Majesty the Eastern Emperor to cooperate with the Luo Wang."

At this point, it was three against three, and each of them was stronger than him. If Xinghun wasn't worried that if he escaped, Bai Feifei would finish him off from behind, he would never have put himself in such a dangerous situation.

"The Dragon Emperor has likely been murdered by Zhao Gao and Li Si!"

Hiss...

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Bai Feifei in disbelief.

Even Xinghun and Dashao Siming were no exception; they never expected Zhao Gao to dare to do such a thing.

"Four days ago, while the young master was in seclusion, I received news from the Zhang family that they were monitoring the sand dunes."

The bodies of Meng Yi, a close advisor to the Dragon Emperor, Ying Ji, the commander of the Black Ice Platform, and a large number of others were found not far from the sand dunes. Although they had been specially treated by the assassins of the Luo Wang, the Zhang family's surveillance experts still recognized their identities at a glance. The other bodies belonged to the Shadow Guards who protected the Dragon Emperor.

These were all the Dragon Emperor's most trusted advisors and leaders of secret organizations. Unless something unexpected happened to the Dragon Emperor, it was impossible for them all to be executed secretly!

Hiss...

If it was just suspicion before, now Xinghun has concluded that something unexpected has happened to the Dragon Emperor.

Moreover, Zhao Gao and Li Si concealed their scheme extremely well, suggesting they were plotting something far more sinister.

"Your Majesty! Second Brother!"

His heart-wrenching wails brought tears to the eyes of all who heard them.

Men don't easily shed tears, but even Meng Tian, ​​the greatest warrior of the Qin Dynasty, couldn't help but shed tears at this moment.

"Before this ambush, a group of envoys disguised as imperial messengers entered the army camp while General Meng was away suppressing foreign tribes. I think Prince Fusu is also in grave danger at this time."

Once Prince Fusu is murdered, Zhao Gao and Li Bi will seize the opportunity to support Huhai to ascend the throne, and General Su will then be considered a traitor.

This is also why the young master forbade the general from entering the Central Plains for three years.

Leaving aside the depletion caused by civil war, the mere absence of generals stationed on the frontiers would inevitably lead to rampant invasions by foreign tribes.

At this moment, Meng Tian came to his senses and gradually understood the current situation. At the same time, he thought of something and immediately rushed into the pass to investigate.

Meanwhile, most of the Golden Fire Cavalry on one side followed closely behind, except for those who stayed behind to care for the wounded.

They had just heard it clearly: the empire had undergone a tremendous change. If it was true, then Prince Fusu would be their only bargaining chip.

If Prince Fusu were to be murdered, they would be considered rebellious warlords within the empire.

In contrast, Xinghun also wanted to leave at this time.

Unfortunately, Bai Feifei and Xinghun were already being watched by two super experts, one in front and one behind.

"Great Master of Fate, Lesser Master of Fate, I have only recently emerged and am in need of recruiting experts."

Will you abandon darkness and embrace the light, or choose to perish with the Star Soul?

Although the Grand Master of Fate killed the former leader of the Mohist School, she had also killed the leader of the Mohist School before him in the past, helping the former leader to ascend to the throne.

From the moment he emerged, Dongjun had only one target for revenge—

The Yin-Yang School, not a particular individual.

The reason for not recruiting Xinghun is that Xinghun's status is such that to become a protector of the Yin Yang School, one must have an extremely pure bloodline and be a member of the Ji clan with exceptional talent.

The Great and Lesser Masters of Fate were merely assassins selected from the Five Spirits of Mysterious Harmony.

Strictly speaking, he cannot be considered a core figure of the Yin-Yang School.

Chapter 799 The Tragedy of the Star Soul: Meng Tian, ​​Powerless to Change the Fate

In the darkness, a three-legged golden crow, powerful enough to incinerate everything, suddenly appeared and danced in the air.

Although the Golden Crow was formed from extremely intense true qi, Dongjun Yanfei's dragon-swimming qi had already reached perfection. Combined with the cultivation results on the Fusang Divine Tree, the blazing sun flames, which were like illusions, were now powerful enough to melt gold and refine iron.

The phoenix rises from the ashes, spreading its wings to the heavens!

At this moment, the most renowned and extraordinary woman of the Yin-Yang School revealed a power that was terrifying beyond measure.

This is not the Moon Goddess's illusion. As a guardian of the Yin-Yang School, Xinghun can sense the terrifying true energy contained within. If the golden crow transformed from the Soul Dragon were to swoop down, he would surely be burned to death.

As the 'number one' genius of the Yin-Yang School, even Xinghun couldn't help but feel his mind and spirit fluctuate.

Gather energy to become a blade!

A surge of powerful true energy erupted forth, and the condensed, invisible blades of energy crossed each other, blocking the three-legged golden crow that was swooping down.

Even the fiercest and most terrifying true fire could not advance an inch.

In an instant, the dragon-like aura of the two guardians of the Yin-Yang School swept across a radius of ten feet.

Bai Feifei and Da Shao Siming were focused on the two in the final battle. If Dong Jun Yanfei couldn't even handle Xinghun, then she wasn't qualified to cooperate with the Zhang family and was only fit to be a decorative figurehead.

Similarly, neither Da Siming nor Shao Siming would side with a master whose strength was similar to Xinghun's and who had betrayed the Yin Yang School.

Because they knew that if Yanfei could come out, then Yueshen was likely in grave danger, or perhaps she had sought refuge with the Zhang family.

"He can gather energy into a blade; he has some skill."

In the past, Dongjun would have had to put in some effort to win over Xinghun, who was known as the number one genius.

However, on the mirage, with the help of the Fusang Divine Tree and the Sunflower Heart Sutra, her strength increased dramatically in a short period of time. Even though her Star Soul Qi Gathering Blade technique had increased to 80%, she gradually began to collapse in less than ten breaths.

With a phoenix cry echoing through the heavens, the golden crow transformed from the soul dragon tore through the gathered qi into a blade and pierced through the soul's body.

At the same time, flames and star soul ignited around them, slowly turning to ashes amidst endless pain.

···

Thump! Thump! Thump...

A series of thunderous hoofbeats shook the ground, and a line of golden fire cavalry appeared before the army camp.

At this moment, Meng Tian looked in disbelief at the white sails hanging around him. There was only one person in the entire camp who could hold a funeral of such scale, and that was Prince Fusu.

Unexpectedly, he was still late.

The deputy general and many commanders who received the message from the beacon tower were waiting for Meng Tian's arrival at the gate of the camp.

Prince Fusu's suicide will inevitably cause great turmoil.

Meng Tian was a member of Prince Fusu's faction, and they were almost the same.

Having served in the north for ten years, forging camaraderie across the northern battlefields, at least half of them would follow Meng Tian in rebellion should he turn against him.

"General, please forgive us! We failed in our duty to protect the young master!"

The generals knelt and begged for forgiveness, but Meng Tian knew he couldn't blame them.

Although there were two commanders of ten thousand men from the Heavenly Rank Assassins of the Luo Wang organization before, most of these men were his trustworthy brothers.

Even if there were still members of the Luo Wang organization among them, he couldn't let his brothers who had risked their lives for him feel disheartened; at most, he would keep a close watch on them secretly.

After all, he didn't believe his brothers would betray him.

"Brothers, please rise. You are not to blame for the young master's death."

As for the lord's revenge, Meng Tian will sooner or later bring the heads of Zhao Gao and Li Si to the lord's grave as a sacrifice.

However, Meng Tian had just been assassinated by three top-tier assassins from the Luo Wang organization and three top experts from the Yin Yang School, but was fortunately rescued by experts from the Zhang family. He also obtained some information from within the imperial court:

His Majesty may have already been persecuted by Zhao Gao and Li Si. The recent tragedy of Prince Fusu is a result of these treacherous officials eliminating dissidents and clearing obstacles for Prince Huhai's ascension to the throne.
