Chapter 68 The Assassination (3)
The moment the old man in black attacked, Song Jiao knew that she had no way out and her identity had to be exposed. She had no choice. If she did not fight back at this time, she would be killed by the old man in black, at least would be seriously injured. Now, she could not afford the consequences of serious injuries.
If her identity was exposed, she and Li Ye would surely fall into the situation of being besieged. There were many masters around Kang Chengxun to protect him. Even Song Jiao was not sure that she could successfully leave with Li Ye.
It was too late to think about it.
"Well... let's fight!"
At the moment when the old man in black moved, Song Jiao decided to start a fight.
She punched.
The agitated spirit surged madly. The doors, windows, and railings of the building without the protection of Formation and Enchantment burst in an instant, turned into powder and flew in all directions. The white light of Spirit Qi, like fire, swallowed up all the debris.
Her speed of attacking was faster than the old man's.
At the moment when Song Jiao attacked, the old man in black changed his face greatly. His intuition told him that the man hanging a tobacco pipe on the waist in front of him was not an ordinary person. But he could not foresee that he would be a master of high-level of Qi-refining. Facing such a master whose cultivation was no less than his, his tentative attack seemed too slow.
It was too late for him to stop attacking and retreat.
"Bang!" Song Jiao punched the old man in black on his belly, and he suddenly bent down like a shrimp. He flew backward with the raging Spiritual Qi and sawdust. At that moment, he was like a fish thrown into a boiling oil pan.
In the A-level room, Li Ye had already stood up from the bed. He carried Kang Chengxun's eye-opened head which was full of blood. When the first drop of blood fell on the ground, Song Jiao started a fight and the whole building turned into ruins.
He jumped up from the sawdust in the sky and saw the old man in black flying backward. They collided in an instant.
The old man in black, as Kang Chengxun's strongest master, was also a cultivator of Qi-refining high-level. This time, he first tried to test Song Jiao's identity but was accidentally hit by Song Jiao with a punch. Although he was injured, it was not serious.
He had thought that due to the big noise, his companions and Kang Chengxun's other followers would react at the first time and then come to support him to deal with Song Jiao together.
So even if he saw Song Jiao attacked again, he was not panicked. He mobilized the Spiritual Qi around him and raised a Spiritual Qi Shield in front of him. He clearly knew that as long as he stood up to Song Jiao's attack, he would survive. At that time, it was their turn to fight back!
But the old man in black hadn't expect that the lethal danger didn't came from Song Jiao in front of him, but from the A-level house behind him that was protected by him.
The old man directly bumped into Li Ye's bosom. At that moment, Li Ye, without any hesitation, directly stabbed the heart of the old man in black from behind with the blood-dropping dagger in his hand.
The old man in black stiffened and turned around incredibly. His mouth was bleeding and his eyes were full of surprises. When he saw Li Ye's face, he became more shocked. He didn't expect that the young servant who was pulled into the room by Kang Chengxun had such strong strength that he could give him a lethal blow.
When he was pushed by Li Ye and fell down with the debris of the bursting doors and windows, the old man in black saw Kang Chengxun's headless body. At that moment, the dying old man became extremely depressed and stiff.
Kang Chengxun was also a master in the middle level of Qi-refining and his cultivation was no less than Li Guanshu. However, he died so quietly, and Li Ye seemed to be uninjured. This also showed that he didn't successfully hurt Li Ye before he died.
A master of Level 6 Qi-refining died like this. And the old man in black, a cultivator of Qi-refining high-level, fell to the ruins and died too. At this time, the old man finally realized that even though he was very alert and aware of Song Jiao's anomalies, their plan of killing Kang Chengxun succeeded.
Li Ye was not injured at all. He didn't pretend that. Kang Chengxun's blow before death was blocked by the Jade Medallion left by Li Xian. In Luoping Village, Li Ye had used the Jade Medallion to block Li Guanshu's sword for Song Yuanqiao. Now, the Jade Medallion was still intact.
It ranked very high.
The cultivators who were below the high level of Qi-refining could hardly cause damage to it.
When Li Ye attacked and killed the old man in black, more than a dozen cultivators had risen from the ruins and leaped into the air. Some of them saw Kang Chengxun who had been decapitated and Li Ye's sneak attack on the old man in black.
"Duke Kang is dead!"
"The two are murderers!"
"Kill them!"
Kang Chengxun's followers, while shouting, took out their magic tools one after another. Some cultivators with higher cultivation had already attacked Li Ye and Song Jiao.
Among these people, most of them were cultivators of the middle level of Qi-refining. Besides, there were cultivators at the high level. Although Kang Chengxun had no talent, he was in a high position, holding power, and extremely cherished his life. Therefore, he had spent a lot of money on inviting guards and masters to protect him.
At that time, the cultivators joined hands and surrounded Li Ye and Song Jiao. Above the falling house, Sword Qi, fireballs, Knife Qi and other techniques flew and attacked, brilliant and impressive.
"Great Mystery Formation!" Li Ye raised his hand and a blue gourd flew out of his sleeve. It was the Glazed Cyan Jade Gourd. At the same time, a small flag appeared and enlarged in mid-air. "Cloud-shaking Flag!"
Blue light shield rose in an instant and covered Song Jiao and Li Ye, including the others who fled with their hands covering heads in the courier station. Techniques hit the light shield as if the rainstorm was falling on the lake, causing numerous ripples.
Others in the courier station looked at the astonishing scene with their eyes opened. They felt more surprised when they saw Li Ye and Song Jiao in the storm.
The young servant in grey and the elder man were ordinary people who had been with them day and night. But now they, like immortals, stood still under the techniques and fought with the great cultivators, as if they were real masters. The shock from this was no less than that when they saw ghosts in the daytime.
"Oh my God, aren't they Lin Zhong and Old Qi?"
"When did they learn techniques? Are they cultivators?"
"How could that happen?"
With other people's cries, the sound of the mirror cracking rang. Even if the Great Mystery Formation was enhanced with the help of Cloud-shaking Flag, it still couldn't stand up to the attacks of many masters. After a round, the Great Mystery Formation broke and Glazed Cyan Jade Gourd and Cloud-shaking Flag became smaller and returned to Li Ye's sleeve.
Seeing the broken light shield, Kang Chengxun's followers were excited and happy. They knew that their opponents had no means of defense now. They would be besieged and killed by them.
"Revenge for Duke Kang!"
"They must be killed, or we'll get into trouble!"
"Kill them!"
These cultivators shouted one after another. But before they launched the next attack, Li Ye and Song Jiao had rushed out of the broken light shield. When the Great Mystery Formation blocked the attacks for them just now, they had gotten an opportunity to escape.
"Go to hell!"
Li Ye wielded his dagger and cut the throat of the cultivator who blocked in front of him and shouted just now.
In order to avoid revealing her identity, Song Jiao didn't use the Coldness of Yi River. But she was in the high level of Qi-refining, so her strength was strong. The cultivator in front of her was punched in the chest by her, and his whole body directly shattered into pieces of flesh.
Just in a flash, the two broke through the encirclement and rushed to the mountains a few miles away from the courier station.
"Stop them!"
"They can't get into the mountains, or it will be hard to find them!"
Kang Chengxun's followers shouted and pursued them. Among these followers, there were masters with high cultivation and they were speedy. They weren't left behind by Li Ye and they were going to catch up him.
After all, Li Ye was in Level 4 of Qi-refining, so he was not faster than the cultivators of high level.
However, the two were obviously well prepared for the escape strategy. In the critical moment, Song Jiao raised her hand behind her and threw several black balls. "Explosive Spiritual Bead!"
Explosive Spiritual Bead was a widespread magic tool in the Cultivation World and even couldn't be regarded as a magic tool. Cultivators injected their Spiritual Qi into a special bead which could accommodate Spiritual Qi to make the Explosive Spiritual Bead. When necessary, it would explode, emitting a blow which was not weaker than that of the cultivator's full force. The power of the Explosive Spiritual Bead varied from person to person and was directly linked to the cultivator's cultivation.
Five Explosive Spiritual Beads exploded successively in mid-air. The sounds of the explosion were like thunder-striking. The wave of Spiritual Qi spread and clouds of Spiritual Qi rose in mid-air.
Song Jiao's cultivation was very high.
So the power of her Explosive Spiritual Beads was strong.
Apart from the cultivators in the high level of Qi-refining who were not seriously injured, few of the cultivators in the middle level of Qi-refining could resist the power of the Explosive Spiritual Bead. Therefore, many of them were seriously injured. And some of them fell off the mid-air.
Kang Chengxun's followers were delayed because of the Explosive Spiritual Bead so that Li Ye and Song Jiao were able to sneak into the mountains. The reason why they chose to attack at the Maple Courier Station naturally was the result of many considerations. The Maple Courier Station was close to the mountains and it was easy for them to escape, which was one of the important reasons.
When they went to the mountain, Li Ye looked back. Although these cultivators did not give up pursuing, they still had a long way to go. As long as they entered the mountains, they were almost safe. After all, there were traps they set in advance in the mountains, which could surprise them. Besides, it was dark already.
Li Ye looked at Song Jiao beside him, and smiled slightly. He thought that it was convenient for him to have a good hand around him.
Until this time, neither of them had changed their faces and clothes. They were still the young servant in grey and the elder man.
Eventually, Li Ye hung Kang Chengxun's head on a tree and inscribed a sentence on the trunk. "Those who harm the country must be punished by heaven!"
He did that in order to create an illusion that Kang Chengxun was killed by the righteous men of Jianghu. It could further conceal the identities of Li Ye and Song Jiao. People wouldn't think that Kang Chengxun died because of Li Ye's revenge. In addition, those followers of Kang Chengxun wouldn't find Song Jiao and Li Ye after they entered the dense forest and would give up when they found Kang Chengxun's head after many hardships.
