These assassins were like wraiths of the night as they snuck around the villa, silently killing the patrolling imperial guards one after another. Then, from all directions, they surrounded the house Jiang Yi was in.
Logically speaking, since the Red Leaves Villa was so large and had countless houses, it would have been impossible for these assassins to know his position so they would have to spend a lot of effort.
But now, their goal was very clear. Without the slightest hesitation, they were afraid that there was a psychokinesis expert amongst them. Otherwise, they couldn't possibly have known about it so clearly.
"An assassin with Shadow Killing House?"
Jiang Yi's eyes flashed, he immediately saw that these assassins were all using the same type of skills as the "Shadow Killing House" assassin at the Wind Moon Inn Station.
Jiang Yi had already understood some information about the "Shadow Killing House". Assassins who knew the "Shadow Killing House" were divided into four levels, namely Gold, Silver, Copper and Iron.
This level had nothing to do with one's cultivation level, but rather relied on the ability to assassinate.
Within the "Shadow Killing House", there are many assassination missions. When the assassins complete these missions, they can obtain points.
Of course, the harder the mission, the higher the points.
If a person with a Foundation Establishment stage body had the ability to assassinate an expert who had reached the level of rebirth, he could become a Copper Assassin, or even a Silver Assassin, or even a Gold Assassin.
On the other hand, if an expert of the Rebirth Realm was unable to assassinate an existence at the Martial Dao Grandmaster Realm, then he could only be an Iron Assassin.
Of course, this was just a hypothesis. It was basically impossible for something like this to happen.
Generally speaking, the more powerful a person was, the higher their Assassin Level would be, but there was no lack of peerless genius. Although their cultivation was not very high, they had completed some missions that were impossible to complete and possessed very high levels.
In the "Shadow Killing House", the higher the grade of the assassins and the higher the status, the more authority one had to speak and the more benefits one would receive.
The Tactics of the Horse that had attempted to assassinate Jiang Yi at the Wind Moon Inn was only an Iron Assassin, so it wasn't a big deal.
And these assassins that appeared in the Red Leaves Villa were a large number of bronze-ranked assassins. Everyone had cultivated the "Silent Assassinate Technique" to the acme of perfection, and without any warning, they took the head of a person.
"I have just forged a flying sword, and just happen to have no place to use it. Then, I will use you all to test my sword, to sharpen my Golden Light Sword!"
Jiang Yi saw everything and a dense killing intent flashed in his eyes as he sneered.
He was assassinated for no reason and had not gone to look for trouble with the "Shadow Killing House", but these "Shadow Killing House" assassins came looking for him again. It was simply unreasonable.
Whoever kills will be killed!
Since these "Shadow Killing House" assassins wanted to kill him, there was nothing for him to worry about.
Buzz …
As the assassins gathered, suddenly, a psychokinesis covered the area a few hundred feet in radius with the house as the center.
There was a Superior Grade Mind Controller that had used the "Painting Prison" ability to lock the entire house up, turning it into a cage, afraid that Jiang Yi would run away.
Swish
The assassins approached the door step by step, their murderous intent spreading in layers. The air was eerily quiet, almost about to freeze.
It was suffocating.
At this moment, eight of the assassins took out a bamboo tube from their bodies. They then pierced through the door and shot something into it.
"Smoke?"
Jiang Yi raised his brows, seeing that the bamboo tube that was extended inside emitted a white smoke that floated over and surrounded his nose, he immediately knew that this was smoke, if he smelt even a trace of it, he would fall into deep sleep.
Right now, the eight assassins were releasing smoke at the same time, spreading it to the entire room. Even experts at the level of rebirth would fall instantly into a trance, unable to wake up even after sleeping for three days and three nights.
But in the midst of the smoke, Jiang Yi was like a boulder, unmoving, and not affected at all: "Muddleheaded medicine, poison, disguise, and some other tactics that are commonly used by Shadow Killing House assassins, but these despicable methods are useless against me, you're all finished!"
At that moment, the eight assassins opened the door and entered.
However, all of a sudden, their eyes swept over and met Jiang Yi's direct gaze. Their bodies abruptly stopped moving, as if they did not expect that he would not be affected by the smoke and remained in a state of clarity.
"Kill …"
One of the assassins' eyes flashed, he was about to roar and charge forward.
At the same time, Jiang Yi opened his mouth and blew out a breath.
A golden light flashed in the void, filled with danger!
In the blink of an eye, the bodies of the eight assassins stiffened as disbelief appeared in their eyes. They then fell to the ground, each of them with a bloody wound on their neck.
"Not good, we've been discovered! Kill!"
The assassins outside the door immediately had a drastic change in expression. However, none of them were afraid. Instead, they released a strong killing intent as their bodies charged forward.
Ka-cha! *
The doors and windows of the house instantly shattered and turned into flying ashes. Sword images flew everywhere and many sharp swords shot out, in a flash, they arrived in front of Jiang Yi, aiming at his temples, forehead, neck, heart and other vital parts.
"The sword shadows are silent!"
"Assassinate Wu Hen!"
"Assassin Wushuang!"
Everyone used their ultimate moves, mystical, unpredictable, swift and fierce!
This scene was extremely terrifying, enough to cause one's will to collapse and die from fear.
That boiling hot blood, Yang Qi, and thunder shook violently. No matter how profound the psychokinesis was, it could not be activated.
"Scram!"
But, just at that moment, Jiang Yi let out a wild roar!
Buzz …
This roar was like the anger of an emperor, the roar of thunder, the impact of sea water. The sound waves could be seen by the naked eye as they spread out layer after layer.
Pop pop pop!
The eardrums of those Iron Assassins with lower cultivations burst on the spot, spurting out fresh blood from their seven orifices. They collapsed to the ground, dying a violent death.
As for the more powerful copper medallion assassins, they continuously spat out a few mouthfuls of blood and their minds were buzzing. They actually lost all sense of hearing as their bodies continuously retreated.
"Martial Cultivatior? "Meditation?"
A look of disbelief appeared in their eyes. What the hell? How could someone use a flying sword to kill someone and at the same time release such a tyrannical power?
BOOM!
Just at this time, Jiang Yi stood up, he stood tall and straight, his eyes imposing, his entire body releasing an unrivaled aura, his fierce eyes sweeping across: "You bunch of Shadow Killing House assassins, you have the guts to assassinate me? To assassinate me is to become enemies with the Heavenly Dao. If you go against the heavens' will, the calamity will descend upon you and you will be punished! "
Each of Jiang Yi's words were filled with unfathomable mysteries. It was likely that he had yet to understand and understand the profoundness behind them.
"Haha …"
Thirty steps away, an assassin laughed sinisterly: "Jiang Yi, you are too arrogant. How dare you call yourself the Heavenly Dao to say such preposterous words? To tell you the truth, you won't be able to escape even if you have wings today. Heh heh … Your head is worth a lot of money, it's worth ten thousand points, and that Minister Zhou Qingsha is worth ten thousand points, but Zhou Qingsha is very powerful, many of our experts in Shadow Killing House have died in her hands, I can't kill her, but I can kill you! This way, I will be able to rise from a silver medal assassin to a gold medal assassin in an instant.
While he was speaking, his eyes revealed a blazing light, as if Jiang Yi was a fat lamb.
This person was actually a silver medal assassin, possessing extremely tyrannical strength. He was the peerless genius within the "Shadow Killing House", but even so, it was difficult for him to become a gold medal assassin.
Within the "Shadow Killing House", Iron Assassins were equivalent to outer sect disciples, Bronze Assassins were inner sect disciples, Silver Assassins were core disciples, and Gold-ranked Assassins were Vice Tower Masters. They were in charge of the operations of the "Shadow Killing House" and had the authority to make decisions.
It was extremely difficult to be promoted to become a Gold rank Assassin, as it required a lot of points. Only those who had attempted to assassinate an expert of the Rebirth Realm would be able to obtain so many points.
However, experts at the level of rebirth had already surpassed the mortal world's level. It would not be easy to assassinate those who had condensed Xiantian Zhen Qi.
If he was even the slightest bit careless, he would lose his life.
Therefore, the gold medal assassins in the Shadow Killing House were basically all experts who had undergone rebirth. Because only those who were in the same realm could successfully assassinate them.
Of course, there were also a few gold medal assassins, who were very abnormal. They were at the realm of Martial Dao Grandmaster, and had the ability to assassinate others and change their bones, which was very scary.
But recently, the "Shadow Killing House" suddenly released a quest, and that was to assassinate the Great Li Kingdom's crown prince, Jiang Yi, to be able to obtain the same points as Minister Zhou Qingsha.
Zhou Qingsha was famous for being the pride of the heavens, her strength was terrifying, she was even more powerful than some experts who had undergone rebirth. Many of the silver medal assassins who tried to assassinate her ended up losing, and the end result was death.
But if he couldn't deal with Zhou Qingsha, couldn't he deal with Jiang Yi?
Jiang Yi was only at the realm of Martial Dao Grandmaster. If he failed to assassinate him, then he would just kill him.
As long as he had these 10,000 points, he would be able to become a Gold Assassin.
How could he find such a good thing?
Therefore, everyone rushed there like a flock of birds, wanting to assassinate Jiang Yi.
As for Ma Jue, he had accidentally probed into the Mu Palace to go to the Wind Moon Inn to "rescue" Jiang Yi, so he acted alone and went to the Wind Moon Inn to hibernate, hoping to find a chance to assassinate Jiang Yi.
But unfortunately, a person is not as good as god knows how. He died in the hands of Jiang Yi.
After Jiang Yi heard this, his eyes flashed. So it was like that.
However, he was puzzled as to who had paid such a huge price to assassinate him?
Zhou Qingsha was only worth ten thousand points, what virtue or ability did he have to be able to be compared on the same level as Zhou Qingsha?
