But with Castellan of Fengling City Manor's Liu Tong in Du Family, and Du Shaomu himself leaving North Cloud City, even until today, Su Family did not take any direct action.
"Killing that little bastard family won't be able to dispel the hatred in my Su Family. I'll definitely wipe out that little bastard's mother and son, and only then will the hatred in my Su Family be dispelled!"
From the top, an old man said. Killing intent shot out from his slightly opened eyes, and he said: "Let's begin, let's first massacre the Du Family, if Lee Family is blocked by those people, then we will kill them all. This is North Cloud City, not Fengling City!"
"Third elder, should we inform the patriarch about this?"
Some people from the Su Family asked after hesitating for a moment.
"In a few days, it will be the time for Heavenly Martial Sect to select disciples. The Patriarch is currently in closed-door training these few days, so there's no need to disturb the Patriarch with such a small matter." Su Jiafeng said.
"..."
At dusk, the setting sun was as red as blood.
Not far from the North Cloud City, there was a valley. This was the only path between them and the Dreamy Cloud City.
The canyon path snaked, and the jagged stone walls on both sides shot straight up into the sky like vertical swords.
The stone path twisted and turned. A figure sat cross-legged on the branch of an ancient tree that had scale-like skin.
The person sitting cross-legged had his eyes closed. His clothes were very simple and his appearance was also very ordinary. However, when he sat on the ancient pine tree, it gave off a ghost-like feeling.
This person's name is Fang Jiu, Imperial Guard.
The Imperial Guard was one of the most elite troops in the entire Yuv state Imperial Family. Strictly speaking, the one and only person who listened to the orders of the Emperor was the Emperor.
But Fang Jiu's Imperial Guard was not ordinary.
Only a few people knew that there were two types of Imperial Guard. One was the ordinary Imperial Guard, and the other was a small number of people, but any one of them were absolute elites within the Imperial Guard, and were all experts in the martial way.
The hidden guards were responsible for helping the royal family deal with some inconvenient matters. The most common ones were assassination, investigation, investigation, and so on.
Bian Jiu was an elite amongst the dark guards and had joined the Imperial Guard since young. Because of his outstanding performance and ruthlessness, he was transferred into the dark guard.
These days, Bian Jiu was not in a good mood.
Initially, he had been ordered to kill a certain someone and he had thought that it would be some important person. If everything went well, in addition to the contributions he had made in the past, it would be enough for him to break away from the dark guards and recover his identity as a Imperial Guard. By then, it would be enough for him to become a Vice Commander.
Once he was no longer a secret guard, he would no longer have to sneakily find that Tsuilan from the Tsui Hong Restaurant. When that happened, he would have to hug that enchantress in his arms and throw her on the bed every day.
But after Bian Jiu received the exact information, he learned that it was only to kill a useless brat. He was also a trash who didn't know martial arts, the son of a servant girl.
But after knowing that it was someone the crown prince must have, only then did Fang Jiujiu know that killing that trash brat called Du Shaomu was a huge achievement.
Furthermore, it would not be easy to kill that useless brat. That was because there was a seventh level Martial General expert beside Marquis Fengling.
By the side, the ninth level only had the third level Martial General Stage cultivation, and if he were to make a move in broad daylight, he would definitely not be a match for a seventh level martial general.
However, there was no pressure from Bian Jiu. He was the elite of the Dark Guard, and even the elite of the elite.
He was proficient in stealth, sneak attacks, and using poison. Even if he had to assassinate a seventh level Martial General, he could do it if he had the chance. Moreover, he was only assassinating a trash brat.
That seventh level martial general wouldn't be following that trash of a kid's around twenty-four hours a day, right?
Just as he was about to go into hiding to find an opportunity to make a move, he met the trash rumored to have actually killed Su Tianci, who was at the first level of Martial Spiritual Stage, in one move. This caused him to be quite shocked.
Then, Fang Jiu saw Du Shaomu actually leave the North Cloud City with his own eyes without bringing anyone with him.
This made Fang Jiu secretly rejoice. He knew that this was his chance, and that even if his luck were to come, he wouldn't be able to stop it.
Bian Jiu followed quietly behind him, wanting to find a place far away from the North Cloud City to make a move. Because the request from above was for him to finish off Du Shaomu without leaving a trace, as it would be safer this way.
Therefore, Bian Jiu had followed them all the way to the Dreamy Cloud City. He planned to make a move within the Dreamy Cloud City and create some chaos so that Du Shaomu could die in the chaos or at the hands of others.
Anyway, as a dark guard, it was easy for him.
In that case, Du Shaomu's death had nothing to do with him, nor would it be related to the royal family. That would be the perfect completion of the mission.
But what Fang Jiu did not expect was that right under his nose, Du Shaomu actually disappeared. After searching through the Dreamy Cloud City, he still could not find him.
This made Fang Jiu somewhat depressed. He was not happy with his mistake as well. If he could not complete the mission, he was afraid that he would not be able to live a good life in the future.
Therefore, Bian Jiu had been waiting here the entire time. Du Shaomu had to marry the daughter of Fengling City in ten days, so he had to return to North Cloud City no matter what.
Time passed by day by day, and it was almost ten days, but he still did not see Du Shaomu.
Even Fang Jiu started to suspect something. Could it be that even though Du Shaomu had killed that genius with Su Family and looked arrogant, in reality, he was already afraid of Su Family for a while, so he decided to just leave, fleeing far away. Did he not intend to return to the North Cloud City at all?
Originally, he thought that he would be able to return soon. When the time came, he could go to the Tsui Hong Lou to find that demon Tsuilan.
When he thought of Tsuilan, Bian Jiu's mood turned even worse.
Suddenly, Bian Jiu raised his head and looked into the distance. A cold light flashed in his eyes.
A Black Scaled Horse galloped over, and Du Shaomu galloped back from the North Cloud City.
The rugged mountain path twisted and turned.
The Black Scaled Horse rushed forward without slowing down at all.
"Whoosh …"
A figure suddenly swept down from the top of the ancient pine tree, a blade directly slashed down, straight towards Du Shaomu who was on the Black Scaled Horse.
His speed was too fast. Under that saber strike, a blazing fire origin energy surged. It was incomparably sharp and filled with a sharp killing intent.
This was completely a killing move. It was simple and efficient, wanting to slice Du Shaomu into two halves.
With this cut, the cultivation at the side who were at the third level of nine Martial General Stage did not hold anything back either.
The fact that Bian Jiu was able to become a secret guard proved that he was smart and cautious, not to mention that Du Shaomu was able to kill the Martial Spiritual Stage's Su Tianci, which made him wary of him.
"Swish …"
Beneath the light of the blade, a burning hot aura roiled down, and a sharp saber light flashed out like a streak of red lightning. Instantly, fresh blood shot out and blood light splattered, and the cries of Black Scaled Horse s could also be heard.
Bian Jiu Tong landed on the ground. His eyes were cold and sharp. He had expected that if he wanted to kill this kid, he would have to kill him suddenly. It would be easy to kill him with his full strength.
However, even though he was bleeding profusely from the horse in front of him, he did not see Du Shaomu's body with his own eyes. Therefore, Fang Jiu did not completely let down his guard.
This was a good habit that he had developed over the years as a secret guard.
"Swish …"
A sharp aura quietly appeared behind Fang Jiu.
"Not good."
Bian Jiu's expression suddenly changed. He had not expected this to happen.
The speed was too fast for Fang Jiu to hesitate.
At this critical moment, Bian Jiu no longer panicked and calmed down.
This calmness came from his habit of training countless times over the years. The Essence in his body suddenly circulated and flowed through his meridians. As he turned around, the saber in his hand moved first, slashing out.
"Crack …"
The light of the blade came in contact with Fang Jiu's blade, causing it to crack and shatter.
When Fang Jiu turned around, he saw a rusty sword.
The sword did not have any light, and was completely like scrap iron that he had picked up from the trash.
But for some reason, the extraordinary treasured blade in his hand, in front of this abandoned sword, seemed like tofu meeting a sharp blade.
"Not good …"
The abandoned sword gave off an aura that made even his soul tremble, making him unable to defend against it. Even after using all his strength, he was still unable to dodge. He could only use all his strength to explosively retreat and dodge in panic.
