Your Majesty the Empress, I am really not a traitor!

Song Jingqing at this moment, compared with the serious and serious Suilongwei Chief Envoy in peacetime, has a little more "strength".

In her hand is a big knife carved with spirit snakes. This big knife looks quite heavy, and the whole big knife looks very destructive.

The chief envoy of Suilongwei, Song Jingqing, usually gives people the image of a guard with both civil and military skills, but in fact, Song Jingqing's so-called "martial arts" is beyond ordinary people's imagination.

Qin Ji had seen and tried her knife before. It weighed several tens of catties, and he could feel the "truth" of this knife just by hitting the ground.The reason why this heavy knife can be used by Song Jingqing is because Song Jingqing is actually good at this kind of wide open and close weapon.I don't usually see her using this thing. It doesn't mean that she doesn't want to use it, but that it doesn't look good when she takes it out.

Therefore, it is really normal to use this thing to smash the other side at once.

After confirming that Xia Yuxiao was not injured, Qin Ji was slightly relieved.

"Oh, I didn't expect that there are so many masters in the court of Great Xia? I thought that with my performance, most people in the palace would not be able to find me."

When he said this, Qin Ji could feel the vicissitudes and hoarseness in the other party's voice, and judging from the other party's thin figure, Qin Ji could almost be sure that the other party was an old man.

The old man wore a bamboo hat on his head, with gray hair and a handsome face.But in Qin Ji's eyes, he could realize that this guy was not as simple as an old man.

The opponent's body is full of aura. Obviously, when the opponent suddenly attacked, the aura was really activated.This is usually difficult for the person being attacked to deal with the enemy in this situation.

If it weren't for Qin Ji's strength and the fact that Chief Envoy Song disrupted the opponent's offensive rhythm just now, the current situation would have become very passive.

"This attack is really terrible." Xia Yuxiao said with a smile, "Old man, at your age, there are very few people with your skills."

"Your Majesty has praised you, but it's just because you practiced too much."

The old man's words were very humble, as if he would accept such a compliment in such a modest and steady manner even if he was talking to another person.

However, although his attitude was very kind, Qin Ji noticed that the weapon in the opponent's hand had been clenched tightly.

Obviously, the other party didn't intend to talk properly at all.

"I don't know if the old man suddenly came to attack today. Is he dissatisfied with my ruling? Or, did he receive some order to kill me?"

Facing this living assassin standing in front of her, Xia Yuxiao didn't show any flinching, but asked very calmly.

Even for Chief Envoy Song, this is not a good behavior, because now that Xia Yuxiao is standing in the open, if she relaxes her vigilance towards those people at this moment, and even prepares to chat with him, it will be easy for her to Someone will find an opportunity to assassinate him.

It's just that Xia Yuxiao doesn't care about this matter, or in other words, she cares more about the brain circuits of these demon cult members.

After all, in a country, there are many bad people and many stupid people, but Xia Yuxiao also wants to see what kind of people are bad and stupid.

Chapter 9 The Victory Is Divided

The old man in front of him didn't answer Xia Yuxiao's questioning, but disappeared in place instantly.

Qin Ji understood what the other party wanted to do, and the moment the other party disappeared, he had already thrown the dagger backwards, and the dagger on his body hit the other party's body accurately.

At that moment, the dagger made the sound of colliding with gold and iron, and the aftershock brought by the crisp sound made the ears of the people around them a little deaf.

"Old man, since you're here, why don't you sit with us for a while, why do you have to use force?"

Qin Ji asked with a smile.

There was still no answer. Faced with Qin Ji's "invitation", the old man obviously had no intention of sitting down and chatting with him at all. His figure appeared behind Xia Yuxiao, and Qin Ji is now Stand between him and Xia Yuxiao.

The old man is very clear that Qin Ji must be eliminated before he can truly succeed.

So, the old man finally showed his weapon.

It was a long spear, which he carried on his back from the very beginning, wrapped in a white cloth. From Qin Ji's own judgment, it was obvious that this guy was carrying more than one long spear.

Seeing that the opponent took out a weapon, Song Jingqing also clenched the weapon in her hand, ready to fight the opponent.

The long spear stabs.

When he found the trajectory of the opponent's spear, Qin Ji understood one thing: the old man in front of him chose to use a spear as an assassin, it was not a stupid move.

As a long spear that is not suitable for assassination, it seems to show endless possibilities in the hands of the old man. He has trained to the extreme the blocking and piercing between square inches, and in such a near-perfect marksmanship, It is paired with those weird skills of the Devil's Cult.

Every time he makes a shot, the long spear in his hand is like a poisonous snake, staring at people's vitals. It is indeed surprising that he can make the long spear so superb.

In fact, if it wasn't for Qin Ji's own strong aura defense as a profound practitioner, he might have been hit long ago. The opponent's moves are purely for the first kill, and once he makes a move, he will definitely rely on this attack method immediately succeed.

only......

Facing another shot that was almost invisible, Qin Ji stretched out his arm and blocked his body.

The spear was nailed to his arm with perfect precision.For ordinary people, this shot is at least enough to completely penetrate a person's arm, and I am afraid that this hand will be useless in the future.

However, the long spear stabbed in Qin Ji's arm could no longer penetrate half a point.

Qin Ji's behavior made the other party more vigilant. The old man never expected that, as an official of Daxia, the Taiwei could fight better than he imagined. In his impression, the officials of Daxia were at most It's just that they know some three-legged kung fu, especially the important ministers. They don't have much time to practice martial arts and practice on weekdays. At this time, they should not be able to cope with it.

Shocking the spear on his arm, Qin Ji didn't speak, but looked back at Xia Yuxiao.

"..."

Xia Yuxiao saw Qin Ji's eyes, which were inquiring eyes.

"Qin Ji, let go, it's life or death, let's talk after the fight."

She knew what Qin Ji meant. As an assassin sent by the demon sect, the other party definitely had a lot of important information. Qin Ji was hesitating whether to kill him or not.After all, if you don't make a death move, it would be bad if the other party did some tricks to kill Xia Yuxiao, but if you make a death move, with Qin Ji's current ability, if someone accidentally beats someone to death, that's terrible. There is no one who can provide information.

And Xia Yuxiao's order was even simpler: Put aside the information and other things first, and ensure her safety first.

It's not that she's afraid of death... It's true that she is a little bit afraid, but the main reason is that the devil's religion often uses various methods, and it is difficult to judge whether the other party has other backhands , so to be on the safe side, it is better to let Qin Ji completely let go.

After receiving the order, Qin Ji smiled.

Spiritual Qi surged all over his body, and in that instant, the old man's eyes changed from sharp to worried.

Obviously, the explosive strength of the "official" in front of him has exceeded his expectations.

However, facing such a situation where he seemed to be at an obvious disadvantage, the old man leaped out, surrounded by thunder, and instantly wrapped around the long spear in his hand. As his long spear thrust out, the thunder light directed towards Qin Ji. Going forward, the so-called thunder seemed to erupt completely at this moment.

Facing the dazzling thunder light, the Huanshou knife in Qin Ji's hand did not dodge in the slightest, but also entangled with spiritual energy. The moment the two weapons collided, the burst of force knocked all the objects in the whole room upside down. Fell to the ground, the thunder light destroyed everything around, and the aura on Qin Ji's body also tore apart the nearby tables, chairs and the ground.

The attacks that were about to leave afterimages intertwined rapidly in a very short period of time. No matter who was on both sides, they were not at a disadvantage in terms of momentum. However, judging from the actual situation, the victory and defeat were already divided.

The way to tell the winner is not that someone can tell who is better in the almost invisible movements of the two, but that as the two fight, more and more blood splattered from the old man.. ....

The wounds on the old man's body have been increasing with the time of the fight, and this seems to be the reason why Qin Ji kept his hand - many of the wounds, if Qin Ji used a little force, I am afraid that the old man could be completely wiped out. To see Hades.

With the last blow, the actions of both sides finally stopped here.

Qin Ji's body was still the same, without any wounds, and the aura on his body tightly protected his body from any harm, while the other party was much more miserable.

On the old man's body, there were more than a dozen shocking wounds. These wounds were not particularly deep injuries, but they were enough to affect his state.

What's more, Qin Ji's sword at the moment was already on the opponent's neck, but the long spear had already been pushed away by Qin Ji. If this continues, it will be clear at a glance who will win and who will win.

"Old man, why bother?"

There was a trace of disdain in Qin Ji's smile.

The opponent does have two brushes. To be honest, like the method of using thunder and spears to launch continuous rapid attacks just now, in most cases, the opponent may be bluffed and dare not take the enemy. After all, this thing is aggressive and fast. And ruthless.

But for those who have truly experienced countless times of life and death, what can be seen after removing the bluffing shell is actually nothing more than a faster marksmanship.

Practical, but not that practical. For those who are not experienced enough, it is really easy to kill at first sight. For Qin Ji, it is just a more dangerous enemy.

Chapter 10 Explosion

Seeing that the situation at the scene was under control, Song Jingqing felt relieved and temporarily put away the weapon in her hand.

"I recognize you, old man," Qin Ji looked at the other person's face, and then said, "Father once said that in the Demon Cult, there was a couple who were good at wielding long spears. You two are famous for their tactic, so it must be the two of you, right? Most people in the Devil’s Cult practice the evil skills in the Devil’s Cult, but you two are the only ones who practice decent skills as members of the Devil’s Cult of."

"I didn't expect that there are still people who can know the two of us now?"

The old man was only willing to speak at this time.

After all, it was already 20 years ago when he and his wife were at their best when they were roaming the rivers and lakes. Rare.

"Of course I know, my father once had a relationship with you two," Qin Ji said politely, but he never put down the knife in his hand, "Well, since you broke in from the outside today, then I think the old lady should come too?"

"Lei Gongfeng Girl", these two people are bound every time they appear. When fighting side by side, how many masters have overturned the car in their hands.

Therefore, when seeing that these two people were not together, Qin Ji was really a little puzzled.

"My old woman? I made an appointment with her to get together here. I don't know why the old woman didn't come, so I can only do it first." Regarding these harmless questions, the old man was very open, so he simply said the actual situation.

"not coming?"

"That's right, I didn't come. As you expected, it was supposed to be carried out by the two of us together, but my wife and I got separated in the middle. I thought we would meet here at the agreed place..."

"one left?!"

Song Jingqing beside him frowned.

One is enough, and another one, what is this, a saturated assassination?

"Since she hasn't come yet, I think something happened to her on the way."

Xia Yuxiao added from the side.

According to the information she knew today, Lingyan had already left the palace to lead a group of people from Huilin to act. She didn't know what Lingyan was going to do, but she knew that this incident was mostly related to the assassination she was facing.Judging from the current situation, Lingyan is likely to be responsible for maintaining the safety of Tai'an City outside.

She might even be in charge of some arrests.

In this case, considering Lingyan's identity, Xia Yuxiao felt that it was impossible for Lingyan to be in charge of the defense of Tai'an City. She was a former member of the Demon Cult. As a "gardener", this time Lingyan obviously They are planning to do something to the Demon Cult.

"That's right, since you've made such sufficient preparations here, my old lady's side is likely to be in your way."

The old man smiled calmly.

Judging from the old man's speech and demeanor, it was difficult for Xia Yuxiao to connect him with the dazed people of the Demon Sect.

Just when she was about to open her mouth to ask the old man what else she knew about the other members of the Devil's Cult, there was an explosion sound from a distance.

Accompanied by the explosion, a "mushroom cloud" caught Xia Yuxiao's eyes.

Xia Yuxiao sighed helplessly, then waved her hands.

Song Jingqing immediately understood what she meant, and the chief envoy quickly ran towards the palace gate.

Such an incident in Tai'an City was no small matter for her as the chief envoy, she had to immediately understand what was happening outside.

However, Qin Ji stopped her.

He asked the chief envoy to wait for a while, and then he took out the spirit stone and used the spirit energy on his body to trigger it.

From the Lingshi, Lingyan's voice came out.

"Master."
