low-key is king

Chapter 156 Contradictory?

The mountain and the foot of the mountain in Qingxuan Tianxia have always been two worlds.

Those strong men of the Immortal Sect generally don't care about the common affairs of the Shanxia Dynasty. This is an implicit rule, and few people will violate it for countless years.

Especially at this critical moment of a country's regime change, the fairy gate on the mountain will restrain its subordinate forces, not to mention this kind of direct attack to kill a general of the army.

Like when a certain king of the Daxuan Dynasty was killed, it was because he wanted to provoke the Hidden Killing Society at his own risk, and no one could say anything about what happened.

And even that time, the Hidden Killing Society did not kill all the royal family of the Daxuan Dynasty, but only killed the king who wanted to clear the hidden killing society of this dynasty.

Since then, the kings of the Daxuan Dynasty have never dared to provoke the Hidden Killing Society, and naturally there will be no situation where the Hidden Killing Society will interfere in the internal affairs of the dynasty.

Although this is an unwritten rule, even the fairy gate on the mountain has always followed it. At this time, Yan Rongli's use of this rule as an example undoubtedly implies a hidden threat.

"Hehe, you're right, it's indeed a bit out of order!"

Just when Yan Rongli was thinking about what reason the silver fox would use to argue, he didn't expect the other party to admit it without a nod, which caught him off guard.

"However, that day when the Sea Clan attacked, the Zhendong Prince's Mansion had meritorious service in protecting Watanabe Castle, and I, the branch of the Hidden Assassination Society of Watanabe Castle, also received a great favor from Lord Lu. I don't want to owe this favor forever!"

Just when Yan Rongli was silent, Yinhu spoke again under the mask. Hearing the reason she said, all the soldiers of Watanabe City had strange expressions on their faces.

"You mean that Yinsha will help Zhendong Wangfu to repay favors?"

Yan Rongli finally came back to his senses, his face was extremely gloomy, did he really not know about the situation of the battle with the Sea Clan in Watanabe City?

At that time, the Hai Clan attacked in a big way, and Watanabe Castle was indeed in danger of being destroyed, especially after the city lord Yang Xundu fled with his son, Watanabe Castle really fell into a situation where there were ten deaths and no life.

But it's really not clear who owes favors to whom.

If it weren't for the two major killers of the Hidden Killing Society, Judge and Yinhu, who attacked one after another, the Zhendong Palace alone would definitely not be the opponent of those brutal Sea Clan.

Strictly speaking, it is the Zhendong Prince's Mansion who has accepted the favor of the Yinshahui, not the Zhendong Wangfu's gratitude.

However, the Silver Fox Killer wanted to use this to make an argument, and it sounded like a little bit of truth, which made Yan's uncle and nephew go crazy.

"Silver Fox, your Hidden Killing Society has already killed two of our generals, can you stop here?"

No matter how angry and aggrieved Yan Rongli was in his heart, he was extremely afraid of the strength of the Hidden Killing Society.

With just one Yan family, at most, they can only wrestle with the Hidden Killing Society branch in Tianyang City.

Yan Rongli must have heard about the fate of a certain king of the Daxuan Dynasty, and he didn't want to follow in that footsteps, let alone the critical moment when the Yan clan was about to change their dynasty.

However, Yan Rongli was not sure. The killers of the Hidden Assassination Society had extremely weird tempers. He didn't have the slightest confidence in whether the other party would retreat. He was even ready for a big fight.

In any case, today's Watanabe Castle or Zhendong Prince's Mansion must be taken. This is the first battle launched by the Yan Clan, and it is also the last obstacle to clear the Lu Clan of Xuanyang Kingdom.

At least this mere five-star killer has not yet reached the level where Yan Rongli retreats. If the opponent is a six-star killer, he will definitely turn around and leave without saying a word.

"For the sake of being so sensible, let me give you some face!"

However, the next sentence that came out from under the silver fox mask surprised and delighted the Yan family's uncle and nephew, but made the hearts of the soldiers of Watanabe City on the west gate wall sink.

At first, he thought that Yin Sha would make a move and would help him till the end, but he didn't expect Yinhu to shrink back when he missed a hit.

Could it be that he was really afraid of the third child of the Yan family who had completed five realms, or was he afraid of some rules belonging to the Hidden Killing Society.

"I, Yan, will definitely remember this favor from the Hidden Killing Society in my heart!"

Yan Rongli was overjoyed, he seemed to have forgotten the humiliation of the two generals being killed, it was the killer of the Hidden Killing Society who killed the first, but he said he owed the Hidden Killing Society a favor.

These words have two meanings, the first is that people in bridal sedan chairs are carrying people, if you, Yinhu, give face like this, I, Yan, will naturally give you face too.

Another important point is that the Yan clan wants to have some relationship with the Hidden Killing Society. Perhaps this intersection is an opportunity for the relationship between the two parties to go further.

It has to be said that Yan Rongli is indeed able to bend and stretch, not only ignoring the hatred of the other party for assassinating two of his generals, but also the fact that his own finger was injured is not worth mentioning, he is worthy of being a generation of heroes.

"Hey, even if I don't make a move, you may not win today!"

Yinhu really didn't make any more moves, but retreated to the side in a leisurely manner, but no one would believe the words that came out of her mouth.

The two-on-two battle over there was certainly a stalemate, but Yan's side had an extra strong man with perfect five realms. If Yan Rongli joined the battle, Lu Mingyang and Zhang Zhizhao would inevitably be defeated.

"Okay, let's talk about winning!"

Yan Rongli was indeed not a sloppy person, he turned his eyes away from Yinhu, and after confirming that the other party would not attack Yan Qingxi again, he turned his attention to the battle over there.

boom!
This martial artist of the five realms of the Yan family is extremely fierce when he strikes, and he took Lu Mingyang's space, this punch directly knocked Zhendong King so lightly that his blood surged, and he retreated several feet away.

Then Yan Rongli turned around and punched Zhang Zhizhao backwards. The situation was a bit worse than Lu Mingyang's. There was a trace of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, obviously he had suffered some serious internal injuries.

The moment Yan Rongli, who had completed the five realms, made a move, the situation of the battle that had been stalemate for a long time was completely changed.

Seeing this scene, the guards on the west gate wall of Watanabe Castle were all mournful, while Yan's army was overjoyed.

They believed that this battle had already come to an end. No matter in terms of the number of high-end experts or the strength of the troops on both sides, the Yan family had the absolute upper hand. Could there be any surprises in the result?

laugh!
However, at this moment, a strong sound of breaking the wind suddenly sounded, causing Yan Rongli to turn around in shock, and then he saw a scene that made his eyes tear open.

I saw a ray of cold light suddenly appear, piercing directly into the back of Yan Qingxi's neck with lightning speed, as if it had completed the work that the killer Silver Fox had not completed just now.

The person involved, Yan Qingxi, naturally felt the severe pain from the back of his neck instantly, and this severe pain spread all the way to the front of his throat. He knew that his throat had been directly pierced.

With such a fatal injury, even if an immortal doctor from the upper five realms appeared, he might not be able to save Yan Qingxi's life.

But how could there be an immortal doctor of the upper five realms in this small Xuanyang country?
"Third... third uncle... save... Gugu..."

Yan Qingxi's desperate gaze turned to his third uncle, but just as he uttered two words, he was choked back by the gushing blood.

He only felt more breath and less breath, and the passing of life made him feel endless fear.

This is the most proud son of the second wife of the Yan family. He has cultivated to the level of a perfect martial artist of the four realms at a young age, and he is also the lord of a city.

This time, he was named General Zhengdong and took the position of Commander-in-Chief of the Hundred Thousand Army.

It is conceivable that as long as this battle is successful, Yan Qingxi's status will inevitably rise.

At that time, it is not impossible to be listed in the Hall of Supreme Harmony and sit on an equal footing with that Huolin General Yan Hao.

Seeing that the Yan family is about to replace the Lu family and become the new overlord of the Xuanyang Kingdom, at such a time, how can Yan Qingxi, who has a bright future, be willing to die like this?
But no matter how unwilling Yan Qingxi was, his throat was pierced and he was powerless to recover. Almost everyone could clearly see the despair in his eyes.

This time the change came too suddenly, so suddenly that not only ordinary soldiers did not expect it, but even Yan Rongli never thought of such a result.

It's not that he didn't think that there would be a killer judge in the Hidden Kill Society, but after Silver Fox made his statement just now, he wondered whether the Hidden Killer would intervene again.

A powerful force like this naturally kept its word.

It wasn't until this moment that Yan Rongli remembered what Yinhu said just now. Even if she didn't make a move, the Yan family might not win. Could it be that she had expected the change at this moment?

"Judge!"

At this time, whether it was Yan Rongli or the others, they all saw the black-clothed figure, slowly pulled out the transparent spikes in their hands, and even saw the hideous mask covering his face.

In the hearts of the soldiers of both sides, the judge's reputation is undoubtedly greater than that of the silver fox, especially the warrior monks in Watanabe City, who have always been grateful to the judge.

It's just that after the battle at Watanabe Castle, the judges disappeared, making it impossible for them to repay their kindness. However, the number of longevity tablets at home has increased a lot for a while.

There was a strange look in the eyes of King Zhendong in the distance. He was one of the few people who knew the identity of the judge, and he was the second son of King Zhendong.

Asha had already jumped off the city wall when Lu Mingyang was thrown back just now, he didn't dare to seriously injure him, the young master would make trouble for him.

Only Asha was the calmest of them all. In his opinion, as long as the young master stepped in, there would be nothing impossible, not to mention the young master had the help of a great demon.

"Are all the people in the Hidden Killing Society so rebellious?"

Yan Rongli suppressed the anger in his heart. After staring at the body of Yan Qingxi who fell to the ground, he turned his gaze to the killer Yinhu. His tone was not only angry, but also unabashedly mocking.

You Yinhu just said whether the hidden killing would intervene again, but the killer judge assassinated Yan Qingxi in a blink of an eye.

This is the commander-in-chief of the three armies. One can imagine the impact of his death on today's battle.
