Boom!

”There’s an assassin!”

”Long Yin!”

”Long Yin is attacking!”

Suddenly, as Zhao Zhenggang and others from the Dragon Slayer Department were preparing to enter Feili Xue’s courtyard for inspection, the guards outside shouted loudly!

At the same time, True Qi went rampant!

In the darkness, figures accompanied by Sword Qi launched a surprise attack!

Long Yin!

Long Yin is ambushing the Dragon Slayer Department!

Zhao Zhenggang, who had already entered Feili Xue’s courtyard, saw the guards outside engaged in battle with Long Yin and furrowed his brows instantly!

”Hmph, too bold, dare to attack the Dragon Slayer Department openly, seeking death!”

Zhao Zhenggang leapt up, flying out directly, shouting, ”Destroy Long Yin! Bring the heads for a reward!”

Over a hundred guards from the Dragon Slayer Department instantly swarmed out of the courtyard, launching a ferocious attack towards the incoming Long Yin.

Long Yin consisted of six people, each with considerable strength.

However, facing over a hundred guards from the Dragon Slayer Department, confronting head-on, it was obvious they couldn’t gain the upper hand.

After killing a dozen Dragon Slayer guards, the Long Yin assassins began to gather strength and besiege Zhao Zhenggang!

”Kill Zhao Zhenggang!”

Upon hearing the low command from a Long Yin assassin, Zhao Zhenggang, who had just flown up, finally understood that these Long Yin were actually targeting him!

As a high-ranking member of the Dragon Slayer Department, he was perpetually on Long Yin’s assassination list.

This appearance unexpectedly incited the Long Yin assassins to act.

Fully aware of the threat posed by Long Yin assassins, Zhao Zhenggang kept a stern demeanor, not daring to be careless, and ordered the guards, ”Stop them, no mercy!”

Sword Qi repeatedly targeted Zhao Zhenggang with fierce attacks; Zhao Zhenggang, being a formidable Middle Stage Great Immortal Realm expert, dodged left and right, evading the assassins’ attacks, then joined the guards in counter-attacking the Long Yin assassins!

Boom!

Continuous True Qi blasts aimed at Zhao Zhenggang, Zhao Zhenggang used his sword to defend variously, realizing that the most powerful among the Long Yin assassins were possibly on par with him, although their overall strength was fairly potent.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Amidst the fierce battle, Feili Xue’s courtyard wall almost collapsed halfway, dust flying everywhere!

The battle alarmed nearby Forbidden Army troops, who quickly gathered towards the scene.

”Retreat!”

Seeing the Forbidden Army approaching, having faced setbacks in assassinating Zhao Zhenggang, the Long Yin guards swiftly prepared for retreat.

Zhao Zhenggang could not allow them to have their way, promptly ordering pursuit and interception, preparing for a large encirclement with the Forbidden Army troops.

But then, Long Yin’s reinforcements arrived, a mighty expert, unparalleled, with a wave of the hand, True Qi surged, sending the pursuing Dragon Slayer guards flying.

Ultimately, under the protection of that mysterious expert, before the Forbidden Army arrived, Long Yin vanished swiftly.

Zhao Zhenggang initially wanted to pursue personally; however, recalling the Long Yin expert’s methods, realizing he wasn’t a match, he hesitated, then returned to Feili Xue’s courtyard.

”Commander Zhao, aren’t you specialized in dealing with Long Yin? Weren’t you searching for Long Yin just now? You saw them appear, yet you’re not pursuing?”

Seeing Zhao Zhenggang return, Feili Xue concentrated and spoke.

Zhao Zhenggang said, ”The Forbidden Army is already pursuing. I recalled something more important, so I must complete this first. Go in, search!”

Zhao Zhenggang waved his hand, soldiers flooded in, beginning to search Feili Xue’s residence.

Feili Xue said, ”Even with Long Yin appearing, you’re still searching, Commander Zhao? What do you mean?”

Zhao Zhenggang said, ”No meaning, Pharmacist Fei, please excuse us. We are not looking for Long Yin this time but a woman who may be defecting and betraying the country. It’s better not to meddle too much. The innocent will prove themselves, won’t they?”

Zhao Zhenggang glanced at Feili Xue; at this moment, after a round from several Dragon Slayer Department guards probing True Qi traces, they emerged.

”Commander, she’s not in the courtyard.”

A Dragon Slayer guard concentrated, ”Strangely, now I sense that the True Qi imprint seems to be in a northern direction; the exact location still needs to be determined slowly.”

”Really not here?” Zhao Zhenggang was taken aback, ”Didn’t you lock onto it as being in this courtyard earlier?”

The guard lowered his head, ”Earlier, we indeed locked onto it, but now, inexplicably, the sensors are indicating it’s dozens of kilometers away, to the north.”

”Strange...”

Zhao Zhenggang appeared incredulous, ”Could it be that the probing was wrong earlier? Could that injured woman run dozens of kilometers in such a short time?”

At this point, Feili Xue stepped forward and said, ”Commander Zhao, because of your arrival, I certainly can’t sleep tonight. Look at my courtyard... entirely destroyed.”

”Collateral damage, collateral damage, haha, Pharmacist Fei, please don’t mind.”

Having found no trace of Gongsun San-nang, Zhao Zhenggang switched to a cheerful smile, ”Ah, how would I know Long Yin would try to assassinate me here, hmph, those guys must think I’m easy prey, I’ll show them my strength! Sorry for the disturbance tonight, I’ll visit the Alchemy Bureau to apologize another day, get a good rest, haha, farewell.”

The Alchemy Bureau in the Imperial Palace possesses notable influence, so Zhao Zhenggang somewhat conceded, saying this, he promptly left with the soldiers.

Seeing the Dragon Slayer Department people leave far away, only then did Feili Xue let out a long breath, patting her chest, what a close call.

Fortunately, Long Yin appeared timely, diverting attention from Zhao Zhenggang and others, providing Qin Tian and Gongsun San-nang the opportunity to flee under cover, otherwise, this time, she would undoubtedly be in danger.

After confirming Zhao Zhenggang and others had left, without any hesitation, Feili Xue grabbed the medical tools and headed directly towards the Guanyin Temple in the Northern City.

She moved at the fastest pace, quickly arriving at an ancient Guanyin Temple in the Northern City.

Seeing Feili Xue emerge, Qin Tian and Gongsun San-nang revealed themselves from behind the Guanyin statue.

Qin Tian said, ”We were truly fortunate for Long Yin’s timely assistance just now, or else you would have been exposed.”

Feili Xue didn’t respond, saying, ”I brought the equipment, let’s go, I’ll quickly treat her. As far as I know, the Dragon Slayer Department has locked onto this location and is conducting a thorough search; they’re progressing towards us; we don’t have much time.”

After saying this, she turned to Qin Tian, ”Go outside and keep watch, stay alert; if the Dragon Slayer Department comes before I finish treatment, you’ll have to distract them.”

Qin Tian nodded, before heading out, he turned back and asked Feili Xue, ”Feili Teacher, what’s your relationship with Long Yin?”

On hearing this, Feili Xue froze for a moment, hesitated, then smiled lightly, ”I don’t know what you’re talking about? Let’s not waste time; I need to treat her, right?”
