C237 Night Scouting Qingshui Courtyard

Zhao Mingzhe stood in front of Liu Xu's grave for a long time. As the night gradually got darker, he took out a set of black clothes from his spatial ring and changed.

It was not hard to find the First Prince's Qingshui Courtyard. Not long after, Zhao Mingzhe arrived at the place and hid himself as he quietly observed the rich and luxurious Qingshui Courtyard.

After confirming that no one was following him, Zhao Mingzhe made a few hand gestures towards Xiao Meng in succession, and then pointed towards Clear Water Courtyard.

The adorable Xiao Meng looked like a huge mouse and entered the quiet courtyard.

After around a quarter of an hour, Xiao Meng returned from the Clear Water Courtyard. His little claws dug back and forth twice, bit one of his little claws, and then laid on the ground with her four limbs facing the sky.

Zhao Mingzhe instantly understood what the little guy wanted to express was that there was a man with one arm lying on the ground and recuperating in the Clear Water Courtyard. It seemed that there was at least half a chance that Zhou Changqing was recuperating in the Clear Water Courtyard.

Right now, Zhou Changqing was also recuperating in the First Prince's Qingshui Courtyard. Zhao Mingzhe was instantly able to deduce that the First Prince, on the one hand, was trying to win the hearts of the people by using the name of Ghost Gate, but secretly, he was also involved with the Ghost Gate. As expected, the disciples of the royal family, the unintelligent ones, had all been toyed with to death long ago.

As he thought about the matters in his heart, Zhao Mingzhe adjusted his breathing a little. Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, he entered the Clear Water Courtyard under Xiao Meng's lead.

The defense of Clear Water Courtyard was tight on the outside, but there were only a few on the surface. However, there were many hidden guards in the dark.

Zhao Mingzhe hid his body while carefully advancing. When he was resting at a fake mountain and adjusted his breathing, he could faintly hear two secret guards whispering at the back of the fake mountain, "Second Brother Liu, the First Prince isn't resting in the courtyard, nor has he arranged for important guests to stay here. We don't need to spend so much effort to guard it, do we? "If you want me to say it, I'll keep an eye on you first. You sleep for a while, I'll call you later. Hehe, then I'll be able to sleep for a while."

"Come on, if Commander Qiao discovers that we're lazy, wouldn't we be skinned alive?" Hurry up and keep an eye on them. You cannot leave your duty! "

Hearing the conversation between the two, Zhao Mingzhe felt weird. Could it be that these guards did not know that Zhou Changqing was recuperating from his injuries? It looked like the First Prince had done his job well!

After adjusting his breathing, Zhao Mingzhe followed Xiao Meng and walked forward for a while, gradually arriving in front of a row of rooms.

Xiao Meng started to rub herself against Zhao Mingzhe lightly, meaning that the person she found was probably in a room nearby.

Just as Zhao Mingzhe was about to indicate for Xiao Meng to confirm which room it was, a sudden shout came from inside:

"Assassins!"

Amidst the shouting, Zhao Mingzhe saw a sword beam suddenly stab over from the darkness!

As soon as he thought about it, the weird long sword left behind by Liu Xu flashed out from his spatial ring. The sharp cross killing sword closed in on the incoming long sword.

"Ding!" The sound of weapons clashing rang out in the dark night. A spark flashed where the two weapons had clashed!

In that split-second, Zhao Mingzhe was able to see clearly, and secretly shouted that there was an assassin, and the one who suddenly attacked, was the ferocious Zhou Changqing!

When enemies meet, there is only red in the eyes!

Zhao Mingzhe took out his water-repelling spear with lightning speed and was about to attack Zhou Changqing, but Zhou Changqing dodged to the side quickly and hid in a room. At this time, the guards at the Clear Water Courtyard had already been attracted by the continuous noise and came over.

"Catch the assassin!"

With a shout, two pikes pierced towards Zhao Mingzhe at the same time. Frowning, the water-repelling spear took action and directly sent the two pikes flying, following that, the water-repelling spear pierced between the two cultivator guards.

With his two hands, the water-repelling spear pulled out from the left and right, causing the two guards to be thrown onto the ground. Zhao Mingzhe wanted to continue chasing Zhou Changqing, but at this point, the number of weapons attacking him had increased.

Although these guards could not be considered true experts, and most of them were only at the Bone Forging stage, they were unable to handle the enemy's strength and numbers. After Zhao Mingzhe knocked over ten of them, someone else would immediately take their place.

Originally, Zhao Mingzhe did not try to kill the guards, but seeing that the number of guards was increasing and that the walls around the courtyard were already filled with archers, Zhao Mingzhe decided to start killing immediately.

"Eh, is that the Celestial Sect disciple, Zhao Mingzhe?"

Zhao Mingzhe's spear swept out, knocking down a few more people, but he did not reply. At this time, the person who had just spoken shouted again:

"All assistants, Zhao Mingzhe, don't do it again, barging into the Prince's Courtyard is already a huge crime, if you kill more people, it will be even harder to settle!"

In that moment, countless guards surrounded Zhao Mingzhe and did not continue fighting. The muscular man with a full beard looked at Zhao Mingzhe and said:

"My name is Qiao Qiang, the commander of the guards in this residence. Back then, when I was lucky enough to accompany the First Prince to Celestial Sect, I saw you once. I remember that the First Prince thinks very highly of you, but why did you barge into the First Prince's estate so late in the night?

Even if the other party recognized his identity, Zhao Mingzhe didn't feel that there was anything to be afraid of, so he directly opened his mouth and said:

"I'm here to look for Zhou Changqing!"

Qiao Qiang's expression was one of shock as he said in a puzzled manner:

"Who is Zhou Changqing? I am the commander of this side courtyard, if you have someone like Zhou Changqing, I would definitely know of his existence.

Zhao Mingzhe's expression was somewhat overcast, and said coldly:

"The first person who noticed me just now was Zhou Changqing. I saw him escaping into that room on his own, tell me now, there's no Zhou Changqing in the Clear Water Courtyard, is this a joke?"

The tone in which Zhao Mingzhe spoke was not polite, but Qiao Qiang did not fall out with him, but instead directly kicked away the room that Zhao Mingzhe pointed to, and inside, there was no one.

Zhao Mingzhe's gaze turned colder, and he knew that Zhou Changqing had already taken advantage of this situation to hide somewhere.

At this time, Qiao Qiang spoke with extreme decisiveness.

"Archers, listen up and be on guard. Do not let anyone leave Clear Water Courtyard. Those who disobey the order will be killed!"

"Yes sir!"

The archers on the top of the wall responded with a loud rumble.

After he finished instructing the archers, Qiao Qiang turned to Zhao Mingzhe.

Clear Water Courtyard. There are places that even I am unable to search, and I have already sent people to notify the First Prince about this matter. As for the First Prince, whether he wants to find the Zhou Changqing that you spoke of, or punish you, I cannot interfere.

Zhao Mingzhe's expression instantly turned cold. He knew that the trouble tonight was unavoidable...
