Chapter 78 Assassination
"Get up, don't be polite." Wang Yuyan helped Xiaoyu up, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Xiaoyu, I will pass on a set of martial arts to you. After you have achieved a small degree of cultivation, you can come to find me in the Immortal Martial Hall in Wuliang Mountain in Dali." etched into her mind.

As long as she practiced hard, she would have no problem dealing with a few little thieves.

After the matter in Yangzhou was over, the two continued on their way. This time they did not ride horses, but took water and boarded a large passenger ship bound for Bianjing.

The bay red horse "Zixue" had never been on a boat, so he was a little restless, snorting and wagging his tail constantly.

Standing on the deck, Li Chenglong and Wang Yuyan looked at the magnificent and boundless lake, and couldn't help feeling: Human power is too small in front of nature. If you want to control your own destiny, you must have the ability to change your destiny.

It is not enough to simply say "man will conquer nature". Before this power is lacking, it is better to let nature take its course.

Li Chenglong and Wang Yuyan followed the canal all the way up the northwest, and soon arrived at Bianjing, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty.

Bianjing is divided into the outer city, the inner city and the imperial city. There is a moat outside the city, which is more than ten feet wide and covers a very large area.

As the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, Bianjing was far more prosperous than Yangzhou City and Gusu City, with a large population and a very developed economy.

Li Chenglong and Wang Yuyan first found an inn in the inner city to stay. Since they came to Bianjing, they had to appreciate this historically famous capital.

Although Wang Yuyan is young, but her appearance is too outstanding, showing her face in public will definitely cause trouble, so she wears a face scarf to cover it up.

There are a lot of fun and interesting things in Bianjing City, jugglers and performers can be seen everywhere, as well as talking birds and human monkeys.

Everything attracted Wang Yuyan to stop and watch. When it came to something exciting, Li Chenglong would applaud along with the crowd, and occasionally throw a little silver as a reward.

"My lord, let's go over there and watch!" Wang Yuyan pointed to a juggling place in front of her. This place is different from the performances of other teams. The general juggling performances are nothing more than knives, guns and sticks, and boulder-breaking performances.

Here, there are fire-breathing, frying pan, and human wall performances, which are novel and exciting, and attract a large number of people to stop.

Li Chenglong dragged Wang Yuyan to the front of the crowd to watch, he suddenly felt a trace of murderous intent, these quack entertainers were all with martial arts, and their internal skills were second-rate in the quack, and the one who put the frying pan was actually a first-rate master.

There must be a conspiracy for so many masters to go to the streets to perform.

Li Chenglong felt it carefully and found that their killing intent was aimed at a thirteen-year-old boy not far to his right.

Although this young man is wearing ordinary clothes, ordinary people can't imitate the nobility exuding from his brows, so his status must not be simple.

There are four master guards on the left, right and rear of him, among them there is a first-rate master, and the rest are second-rate peak masters.

These four guards were all wearing ordinary clothes, they were all focused on the crowd around them, and they didn't watch the performance at all.

While Li Chenglong was concentrating on sensing, Wang Yuyan was accidentally pushed by someone behind, and she lost her balance and fell to the ground.

"Girl, are you okay?" The young man smiled and stretched out his hand to pull Wang Yuyan up.

"Thank you!" Wang Yuyan got up by herself, thanked her, and then returned to Li Chenglong's side.

The young man was not annoyed, he nodded to Wang Yuyan, and then continued to watch the performance, appearing very calm.

After a round of performances, the first-class master who put the oil pan held the gong and begged for rewards from the people around him. The young man was very generous, and took out a piece of silver to put on the gong.

At this moment, an accident happened suddenly. The strong man holding the gong lifted the gong up, and a steel-like claw came out instantly, like a poisonous snake coming out of a hole, as fast as lightning.

The four guards had just reacted, and there was no time to rescue them. They only had time to shout: "Thief, dare!"

Seeing that the young man was about to encounter a murderous hand, at this critical moment, a sword energy appeared at an unknown time, piercing through the strong man's wrist in an instant, and scattered his concentrated strength.

The four guards reacted immediately, guarding the young man behind him, and the guard with the highest cultivation drew his sword and charged into the group of thieves.

When the surrounding people saw this change, one of them screamed in fright and fled in all directions. The scene was very chaotic.

Li Chenglong protected Wang Yuyan and stayed where he was, watching the two gangs fight quietly.

"Kill me! Kill anyone you see! You must kill Zhao Xu, the dog emperor today!" The strong man roared. They had planned for this assassination for a long time, but they didn't expect to be sabotaged by Li Chenglong, resulting in a fall short.

"He turned out to be the emperor!" Li Chenglong glanced at Zhao Xu. Although he was afraid, he didn't panic. He hid behind a guard and calmly watched the fight in the field.

The martial arts of these four guards were obviously much higher than that of these assassins, but there were so many assassins that they were in a stalemate for a while.

As long as they are stalling for some time and waiting for the army to arrive, these assassins will definitely die.

These assassins seem to be some dead soldiers, everyone who is running away, and their moves are to attack the opponent's fatal point, even at the expense of exchanging injuries.

The four guards played a lot more conservatively. They only needed to protect Zhao Xu, and they didn't need to fight them desperately.

Li Chenglong saved Zhao Xu's life as a reward for his kindness to Wang Yuyan, and he didn't intend to continue.

I didn't expect those assassins to have no way to go to heaven, but to come to hell without a way.

They cut at anyone they saw. The two assassins saw that Li Chenglong and Wang Yuyan didn't run away. They smiled cruelly and slashed at their heads with long knives, trying to cut them in half. It was very cruel.

There was no reason for Li Chenglong not to reject the infuriating energy that came to his door. He activated the Heaven Swallowing Art and sucked the two assassins into human beings.

He placed Wang Yuyan next to Zhao Xu, and then joined the battle group. Everyone he touched, shivered like chaff, and their true energy was sucked out.

In a short while, except for Zhao Xu's side, all the assassins were sucked dry by Li Chenglong, and there were a few more drops of sword energy in his dantian.

"Thank you for your help, son." The leading guard cupped his fists at Li Chenglong, using the etiquette of the Jianghu.

"It's not enough to draw your sword to help when the road is uneven." Li Chenglong said politely.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhao Xu, for saving your life. Please also tell me your name. Zhao Xu will definitely reward you handsomely." The little emperor Zhao Xu said loudly.

"Cao Min pays homage to the emperor!" Li Chenglong bowed slightly first, and then replied: "Cao Min Jian Wuhen, since the emperor is fine, Cao Min will leave first."

After speaking, Li Chenglong took Wang Yuyan and left here.
