Chapter 744: Chapter 744 Assassin Chapter 744: Chapter 744 Assassin Li Wenli took advantage of the montum to dodge to the side, but the cloaked Great Chief, hidden in the darkness, launched several kicks in rapid succession after missing with the first strike.
Li Wenli failed to dodge in ti and fell into the lava pool.
“!”
Now he understood that this person intended to burn him to death with the lava.
However, he was destined to be disappointed.
The lava pool was several thousand ters below, and as Li Wenli fell, he plunged his long sword into the rocky wall, plumting several hundred ters before finally stopping.
He looked up only to see the Cloak People hamring at the mountainside, and in no ti at all, they used their inner strength to pry out many large boulders and desperately threw them down.
It was truly a case of “adding insult to injury.”
Li Wenli clicked his tongue. Luckily, they were far enough apart that Li Wenli could erect his Wind Net and shatter the falling rocks into pieces.
Seeing Li Wenli easily pulverizing the rocks, the Great Chief angrily shouted to those around him, “Bring over the Repeating Crossbow!”
“Yes.”
The only people in this cave were ordinary craftsn; they were not equipped with weapons, so upon hearing the Great Chief’s command, the craftsn hurried out.
The walk from the Slting Yard to the Weapon Armory was a long one, but the craftsn did not mind. They couldn’t be happier to stay away from the battlefield.
For a mont, only the two adversaries remained in the Slting Yard.
Li Wenli gracefully drew his sword and started to climb up bit by bit, while the person in the cloak grew increasingly anxious.
Unable to wait for reinforcents, he slipped the Stone Sword behind his waist and once again exerted himself in… not bricklaying, but stone moving.
Li Wenli was waiting for just this opportunity.
Seeing the person put the Stone Sword back into its sheath, Li Wenli imdiately ignited a cluster of Lava Fire and aid it at the Great Chief’s cloak.
The fire whooshed and set his cloak ablaze.
Startled by the sudden fire on his body, the Great Chief quickly cast off his cloak, revealing a face with sharp, well-defined features in an instant.
Li Wenli was taken aback.
This person…
Was he actually Pri Minister Lin from the Imperial Court?
Baiju Country had two Pri Ministers, one of whom was Wenren Pingting’s father, and the other was Pri Minister Lin.
Interestingly, Pri Minister Lin’s daughter also happened to marry Yuwen Luanfei, none other than the prestigious Princess Consort ngyu, who was on equal footing with Wenren Pingting!
Li Wenli truly did not expect this old man, who had married off his daughter to Yuwen Luanfei, to still be colluding with Yuwen Jun. Moreover, wasn’t this person a civil official? How could he possess such great capability!
With Pri Minister Lin’s face unexpectedly revealed, he now made up his mind even more firmly than before. Since Li Wenli had seen him, not a single survivor could be left.
So he fiercely started to throw stones down.
…
anwhile, Bai Junjun had easily returned to the mountain. She and Li Wenli had agreed that whoever succeeded first would leave separately and regroup at the Bai Residence.
However, as soon as she arrived at the mountain, she felt the entire mountain trembling.
Bai Junjun was startled, her intuition telling her that this commotion was caused by Li Wenli. Without hesitating, Bai Junjun quickly left before the mountain could collapse.
Back at the Imperial Capital, Bai Junjun lightly leaped over the closed city wall, returning to the streets and alleys.
Just as she reached the alleyway to the Bai Residence, many assassins suddenly appeared around her.
The charging assassins, seeing her appearance, didn’t say a word and rushed at her with their swords drawn.
Bai Junjun was baffled as she looked at this group of people who materialized out of nowhere. Were they here to kill her?
Could it be that Shopkeeper Qiao’s scouts discovered he was kidnapped and even suspected her?
With this thought, Bai Junjun no longer hesitated. She drew the Vermilion Demon and tangled with these attackers.
But during the fight, Bai Junjun was sowhat surprised; these people were all endowed with inner strength, and each one had considerable Kung Fu skills.
Even with her abilities, it was sowhat difficult for her to combat a group of such capable opponents.
In the end, Bai Junjun had to use her Crossbow Bolts to eliminate these assailants.
