Yu Qing was the first lieutenant of Chuan Country and was in charge of the security of the capital city. To put it bluntly, he was the biggest local tyrant within the Zhaoyang City and knew every single detail of Zhaoyang like the back of his hand. The spies under his command numbered in the hundreds, or even thousands, and they were spread throughout the entire city.

Xiao Xuan frowned, he thought for a moment, then said: "You go find Guan Ning, get him to send a group of experts from the palace to help you capture the assassin!"

Yu Qing said softly: "Great King, the assassin is Spirit Cultivator of Dark, it would be too difficult to capture him."

"You mean ?"

"Let him sneak into the palace, and then catch a turtle in a jar. Even if he is allowed to escape, he will not be able to do so!" Yu Qing said carefully.

Xiao Xuan was secretly speechless, was this really catching a turtle in a jar? No matter how he looked at it, it sounded like he was luring a wolf into a room!

Seeing him remain silent for a long time, Yu Qing knew that he was worried, so she quickly added: "King, please be at ease. This humble subject has already captured the girl who met the assassin, I believe the relationship between the two of them is not ordinary. When the time comes, I can use her to force the assassin to submit."

Rather than calling it capturing her, it would be better to say that he picked up a big bargain from her. When one of his spies found that woman in the temple, she was already unconscious and had been carried back by the spy.

"Will it work?" Xiao Xuan did not know the details, and he did not care about it. He only wanted the result.

"Definitely." Yu Qing said seriously, "According to the information obtained from the spies, this humble subject can conclude that this woman is most likely the assassin's wife."

"Yes!" Xiao Xuan nodded his head, and said: "This matter, I'll leave it to you and Guan Ning to handle! However, Gu You also has to make things difficult for the person who lured the assassin into the palace, you were the one who suggested it, so if you succeed in capturing the assassin, then naturally you will have done a great deed, if you are unable to capture the assassin, or if the assassin was to injure someone in the palace, Gu Jue will not let you off lightly! "

"Yes!" Great King! This humble subject will do it right away! "

"Go!" Xiao Xuan waved slightly at him.

Yu Qing bowed deeply before turning around and quickly left the hall.

, who was listening closely to the conversation between the two of them, had heard everything clearly. He was also praising in his heart, the efficiency of the People of Chuan Country was really high, the matter which Xiao Xuan told him in the morning and revealed the result in the night, not to mention that he had captured the assassin's wife, it was extremely inconceivable. However, Yu Qing was quite bold, she had proposed to invite the Lord into the Weng, if everything went smoothly, then everything would be fine. If the capturing failed, wouldn't the King Chuan Palace be turned upside down by the assassins?

Tang Yin was extremely interested in this Spirit Cultivator, he also wanted to see what kind of person he was. Just as he was pondering in his heart, he suddenly heard a dissatisfied shout from beside him. At the same time, a pure white hand that was like jade swung in front of his eyes.

"Recollected! Recollected! Hey!" What are you thinking, are you listening to me at all? "

Tang Yin subconsciously grabbed the hand that was shaking uncontrollably in front of his, he turned around and saw Xiao Xiang staring at his with his pair of black and white eyes.

Tang Yin laughed, and released her hand, and said: "I'm a little drunk, I need to go back to sleep.

While he was speaking, he pretended to be drunk and shakily stood up, but he purposely lost his balance and almost knocked over the table in front of him. Luckily, Ah San who was behind him had reacted quickly and helped him up.

Xiao Xiang and Ren Fang were both confused, just a moment ago, he was talking and laughing, why did she suddenly get drunk?

Seeing that he was so drunk that he couldn't even stand properly, Xiao Xuan couldn't keep him drinking anymore, and could only get him to go back and rest.

Tang Yin obviously did not return to his residence. After exiting the Main Hall, he took advantage of the fact that he was peeing to slip away secretly without anyone noticing. Yu Qing was planning to capture the, and he was not willing to miss this good show.

As for Yu Qing and Guan Ning, one was in charge of the capital's security while the other was in charge of the palace's security.

At this time, the two of them had already purposely revealed a weak point in their defenses to the east of the palace and then laid a large number of experts on the road that led to the Anterior Palace s and the harem. In order to not arouse suspicion from the assassins, the two of them had ordered the guards to subdue the Spirit-dispersed Pill s first so that the assassins would not be able to detect their Spirit Pressure.

Their method was very effective. Right now, they were quietly circling around the palace. The black-clothed men who were looking for a way out immediately discovered that the number of guards on the east side of the palace had clearly decreased by a lot. Such an opportunity was too rare for him.

The black clothed man did not realize that this was a trap, nor did he notice that his every move and movement had actually been monitored by the Chuan Country scouts a long time ago.

Taking advantage of the reduced number of guards, the black clothed man used the Shadow Shift to flash onto the palace wall, and immediately afterwards, he used the Shadow Shift to enter the palace. This interval of one flash didn't even take a second. The speed of the movement was astounding.

After the black clothed man entered the palace, he quickly squatted down by the wall and carefully observed his surroundings. When he did not find anything strange, he slowly straightened his back and rushed towards the Middle Palace.

Xiao Xiang was also among them. If he wanted to get close to Xiao Xiang at the banquet, that would be impossible, as the only way would be to infiltrate Xiao Xiang's residence in the rear palace first, and wait for her to come back before making a move out of nowhere.

Unfortunately, before he could sneak into the harem, just as he had sneaked out of the eastern palace, hundreds of Imperial Court guards suddenly rushed out from the shadows around him. At the same time, Spirit Pressure came from all directions.1

Crap! The black clothed man immediately realized that he had been ambushed, but it was too late for him to escape using the Shadow Shift.

He tried his best to remain calm as he squinted his eyes and surveyed his surroundings. There were countless palace guards surrounding him from all directions. People were holding torches up high, lighting up the night as if it was daytime.

"How dare you thief! How dare you barge into the royal palace!" The group of guards split to the left and right, and Yu Qing and Guan Ning walked out together.

The black-clothed man subconsciously took a step back. His gaze was like lightning as it swept over the two of them. Yu Qing sneered and said, "You can't escape now, do you still want to make a futile struggle?"

Before he could finish his words, the man in black suddenly dashed towards him. He stretched out his palm and grabbed his face.

Although Yu Qing was a first lieutenant, he had never cultivated in the Spiritual Force and was only a general. Seeing the other party pouncing towards him with such ferocity, his expression changed. Instinctively, he dodged behind Guan Ning.

Guan Ning stood in his original position without moving. As a Defence Minister, he was directly responsible for the safety of the palace. Guan Ning chuckled, his entire body releasing white mist, spirit armor condensing, following that, he waved his hand, and blocked the black clothed man's claw.

Pow! The black clothed man did not grab onto Yu Qing, but held onto Guan Ning's arm. He wanted to throw Guan Ning out, but who knew that Guan Ning's reaction would be so fast. He raised his knee and pressed it against's waist, preventing him from using his falling strength.

The black clothed man frowned, without any warning, the palm on which he was grabbing Guan Ning's arm suddenly released a ball of black flames, the Black Fire burned Guan Ning's entire arm in an instant, and white mist emitted out from the spirit armor from time to time.

Fire of Darkness! Guan Ning turned pale with fright. He bellowed and swung his other arm, smashing the black-clothed man's head. The black-clothed man retreated, flying two meters back, avoiding Guan Ning's powerful and heavy attack.

He did retreat, but the Fire of Darkness burning on Guan Ning's arm did not extinguish, instead it continued to burn even more intensely. It seemed like his spirit armor also had the possibility of being cremated as well.

As expected, this person's cultivation base was high and his own Spirit Armor was completely unable to withstand his Fire of Darkness. Guan Ning was helpless, he had no choice but to scatter the spirit armor on his body, in order to prevent the Fire of Darkness from spreading and burning.

The two had just exchanged blows, and the superior had already figured it out. If it was a one on one battle, Guan Ning would definitely not be a match for the black clothed man, but, the black clothed man was only one person, while Guan Ning and Yu Qing had hundreds of Chuan Country experts.

Seeing that Guan Ning had suffered a loss, the surrounding guards were no longer courteous and rushed forward, surrounding and attacking the black clothed man. The first to rush at him were three long spears. These three guards all used spirit spears. Their attacks were fast and fierce. The spirit spears separated his upper, middle, and lower paths.

The man in black's body swayed. He first dodged the first two shots and then, instead of retreating, moved forward to intercept the third shot. When the spirit spear was about to pierce his chest, he slightly leaned to the side, and with a 'sha' sound, the spirit spear practically brushed past his chest.

Without waiting for the guard to receive the spirit spear, the black clothed man grabbed the spear's body and shouted, "Let go!"

Following his words, the Fire of Darkness s spread out from the center of his palm. They followed the body of the spirit spear and burned all the way to the guard's palm.

The guard was also unyielding, holding onto the spirit spear tightly, not willing to let go. The Fire of Darkness that was extending towards him burned his hands, and then his palms burned his entire body.

Under the burning of the Fire of Darkness, the spirit armor around the man's body melted. Then, with a heart-wrenching scream, his body turned into a cloud of fog and fell to the ground.

While the black clothed man took advantage of the opportunity to snatch his spiritual spear, he also absorbed the spiritual energy floating in the air into his body. With the spirit spear in hand, the black clothed man became even more ferocious. His entire spirit spear became a spear as he fought against the surrounding guards.

In all fairness, if it was a one-on-one fight, no one at the scene would be able to beat him. Even if the guards relied on their numbers to besiege him, they still wouldn't have much of an advantage.

Unknowingly, Xiao Xuan had appeared at the scene with tens of his bodyguards surrounding him.

Seeing him arrive, Yu Qing, who had been hiding outside the whole time, jumped in fright. He quickly ran up, clasped his hands, and said anxiously: "King, this place is dangerous, you should avoid it first!"

Xiao Xuan looked at the battle on the battlefield, and said with a gloomy face: "This is the Gu's palace, why should I avoid it? Or perhaps, you all are unable to protect me? "
