Chapter 354 Amazing Skills
The incident happened so suddenly that everyone was shocked.
"It's...it's you!"
Di Baiying staggered two steps, his eyes revealing a strong unwillingness. He recognized Zhang Yu in disguise.
The blade of the dagger glowed with a blue light, and after drinking enough blood, it turned from blue to black.
"Master Di, are you still alive?"
In a flash, seven or eight swords pierced his chest, and his internal organs were crushed into porridge.
If it were an ordinary person, he would have died long ago, but a great master in the innate realm would still have half a breath left.
"Master!"
Di Baiying slowly fell down and leaned against the table leg, his strength gradually drained away...
From the presentation of the zither, to the receipt of the zither, to the assassination, only ten breaths took place. When Zuo Shiqi, who was standing at the back, noticed it, it was already too late. His brain went blank instantly. He could not understand how a great master of the Innate Realm could be... assassinated like this!
"what!"
Zuo Shiqi's eyes widened, because his sword was unloaded outside the building. He climbed over the long table and punched forward with a powerful force.
"die!"
The giant was over nine feet tall, with strong muscles, like a barbarian.
The assassin was over eight feet tall and relatively slender, so it looked like his punch was a sure win.
Zhang Yu stepped back with his zither in his hand and raised his palm to greet the enemy.
"Oh!"
After the collision of fists and palms and a loud bang, Zuo Shiqi felt all five of his finger bones broken. A piercing pain surged over him and his body flew backwards involuntarily, breaking several apricot trees and falling heavily in the corner.
At the same time, someone at the table started shouting.
"Escort!"
"Someone come quickly, protect Prince Ning..."
"The assassin is from Prince Lu's Mansion, be careful..."
Miss Zizhu showed her dry black claws and subdued Prince Lu in the first moment. The guards of the palace were all downstairs. At this time, five masters rushed out from the back hall and stood in front of the frightened Prince Ning. His first thought was that the court had attacked him!
"catch him!"
"Don't let the assassin escape!"
After the fear, King Ning looked down at his crotch which was wet with wine. Fortunately, no one noticed it and he was furious.
"He is alone! Kill him, kill him, there will be a huge reward..."
Upon hearing the order, the five personal guards rushed forward and surrounded Zhang Yu with swords drawn.
"Subduing Tiger Sword Formation!"
They were from the same school, all of them were acquired masters, and they had also practiced a set of combined sword-attack formations. They traveled across several provinces and were nicknamed the 'Five Tigers of the Broken Gate'. They were naturally no ordinary people to be recruited by King Ning as his personal guards.
"seal up!"
A cold light flashed by, and five long swords blocked the four directions of east, west, south, and north. There was also a long sword that moved flexibly, looking for flaws, ready to give a fatal blow at any time. The sword energy was everywhere, and apricot blossoms fluttered and fell all over the hall.
"When Jing Ke assassinated the King of Qin, a white rainbow pierced the sun!"
The girl in yellow shirt sat in her seat, looking at the zither player who was surrounded but showed no fear. He fought against five masters with only a short sword. He was facing swords as if he was strolling in the garden. Jing Ke and Nie Zheng in ancient times were no more than this, right?
"We can't stay here any longer!"
The five-man sword formation was quite powerful. Zhang Yu deliberately maneuvered around the table. They were afraid of hurting the nobles in the palace, so they could not exert their full power. At many times, they had to restrain their hands and feet.
But this was enough. The assassin was entangled until the guards downstairs came to support him and he could not escape.
"Prince Ning?"
Zhang Yu kicked away the long sword that was stabbing at his chest, and his left shoulder was cut by the long blade. He looked at the person protected behind him by the purple-shirted woman. He had already made a plan in his mind. After assassinating Di Baiying, he would hold King Ning hostage and leave Xinghua Tower.
Firstly, Di Baiying was very strong and had thick blood, so it took seven or eight stabs to sever his heart meridians.
Secondly, although Zuo Shiqi's punch was useless, it still held him back for a moment.
"Flower Style!"
Zhang Yu spun on the spot, using his short sword like a beak to repel the five long swords. At the same time, he waved his left hand, emitting a burst of golden light, and the scorpion tail golden needles shot out with a "ding ding dang dang" sound. The opponent used his sword to deflect most of the hidden weapons, but there were still a few that slipped through the net and sank into the body, causing bursts of severe pain.
The power of the 'scattering flower style' is limited, and the golden needles are forced out instantly.
"Where did you get so many needles?"
"Could this kid's family run a needle shop?"
The five people suffered a lot and dared not get close again, feeling extremely hateful.
"Of course I borrowed it from your mother!"
Zhang Yu laughed loudly, and after using hundreds of golden needles, he finally forced open the five-man sword formation. He leaped out and went towards King Ning. While in the air, he raised his hand again, as if to launch another hidden weapon.
Zizhu quickly pulled Prince Lu over and stood in front of Prince Ning.
"No, protect King Ning!"
If Prince Ning is dead, what's the point of cutting the assassin into pieces?
The Five Tigers of Duanmen were startled and took a few steps forward to block King Ning and spread out in a half-moon shape.
"Hahaha, I won't play with you guys anymore!"
Zhang Yu made a feint, stepped on the wall, and headed for the half-open window on the east side. He carried Shui Longyin on his back, opened his arms, and jumped down. The building and the cliff outside were fifteen or sixteen feet high, but no one suspected that he would fall to his death. "Escape?"
"He just ran away like that!"
The girl in yellow quickly ran to the window and saw a black dot falling into the lake.
She beamed.
A moment later, seven flaring arrows were fired from the Xinghua Tower.
All Ningfu warships were put on alert and approached Baihuazhou.
There was a panic at the banquet and no one paid attention to the dying person.
"in the end…"
Di Baiying was filled with endless reluctance, and his consciousness followed the figure by the window until he was completely submerged in the dark lake. The song that Zhang Yu had played before seemed to ring in his ears.
Dharma Protector Hall, Blackwood Cliff, Pingding Prefecture, and Sun and Moon Sect.
Yang Lianting, Ren Yingying, Zhang Yu, and Dongfang Jiaozhu.
The rivers and lakes, the imperial court, and the hegemony of the world...
It has nothing to do with him anymore!
"In the end, it's all for nothing."
Over the East Lake, the sky was blue and clouds were green. Two lines of egrets flew across the sky, making startled noises.
"There's a warship ahead!"
A dozen sand boats, trough boats and black boats paddled on the water, filled with men in black, holding swords and guns, trying to approach Baihuazhou. However, they underestimated the elite level of the Ningfu navy.
"Bang bang bang!"
Two Yellow Dragon warships stretched across the water. With a loud noise like firecrackers, white smoke rose up and sixteen tiger squat cannons opened fire in unison.
Lead bullets flew over like rain.
Most of them fell on the water, but there were still five or six that hit the frontmost boat on the Wupeng River. Immediately, wailing sounds were endless. Two disciples of the Suzaku Hall had broken bones and tendons, and their chests were sunken. They died on the spot, and there were many more injured.
"Oh!"
The black boat broke into two pieces and scattered on the water. Dozens of people fell into the water and became food for fish and turtles. It was a horrible sight.
"Bang bang bang!"
……
The Huanglong warships were still attacking, and each round of bombardment could take away at least dozens of lives.
"The Ning Mansion navy reacted too quickly!"
The big sand ship at the back had its flag flying and a woman in a white dress was standing at the bow, observing the battle.
"Saint Aunt, the Ning Mansion navy is very elite. Two Yellow Dragons have made it difficult for us to advance. If a few more ships come from behind, I'm afraid we will be completely surrounded, which will be even more troublesome."
Ren Yingying asked softly, "Zheng Xiangzhu, what do you think?"
Zheng Senlong was from Zhoushan and was born a pirate. In Suzaku Hall, he was one of the few people who was well versed in naval warfare.
"Reporting to Saint Auntie, naval battles are unusual. First, there are ships, and second, there are cannons. The enemy ships have many anti-aircraft guns, and the masters in the hall cannot get close at all. Even if they force their way onto the ship, they will be shot into sieves by the musketeers."
While the two were talking, another tank ship was sunk.
"The closer we get to Baihua Island, the more warships the Ning Mansion has. I heard that a fort was secretly built on the island..."
Ren Yingying said coldly: "Why are you beating around the bush? I'm asking, what should we do next?"
Zheng Senlong said truthfully: "Saint Aunt, even if we send all these ten or so ships and four hundred brothers, we will not be able to sail close to Baihuazhou and rescue Deputy Hall Master Zhang. The only option now is... to withdraw!"
Ren Yingying was silent for a moment, looked at the lake, and said softly: "I'll listen to you, let's retreat!"
The lake surface, which was hundreds of feet in radius, was dotted with warships, cruising and searching in a crisscross pattern. If Zhang Yu showed his head even slightly, he would be discovered and attacked by bows, crossbows, and cannons. Unless he could dive across the lake, which was more than ten miles in circumference, like a fish, his chances of survival would be slim.
Since ancient times, assassination has been a life-threatening task.
There is an isolated island in the middle of the lake. The Ning Mansion’s navy is the best in the world. It is easy to assassinate but extremely difficult to escape.
How could Ren Yingying not understand this logic? When she chose to let Zhang Yu go to Xinghua Tower, she had already anticipated many things that would happen later.
Everyone in this world has to make choices.
Abandoning Zhang Yu, he won a great opportunity to climb the Blackwood Cliff again. He also attributed Zhang Yu's death to Yang Lianting, who had always held a grudge against him, and easily subdued the troops of Yunyutan and Qingfengzhai...
Kill several birds with one stone!
Zheng Senlong shouted: "Send the signal, evacuate!"
A dozen or so miscellaneous ships turned around and left.
The two Yellow Dragon warships did not pursue and continued to guard the lake.
Ren Yingying took one last look at the lake. The sun was shining brightly, the water was clear and blue, and everything was visible at a glance.
"You can't blame me. It's God's will and the way the world is. It's not a loss for you to have a hundred Suzaku brothers accompany you on the journey."
A smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
