Chapter 462 Don't Look Back and Forget About the Past
Watching the man in black die, Sikong Jin coldly withdrew her hand, walked over to the man in black, bent down and searched his body. Apart from a few packets of medicine powder and the bamboo flute, there was nothing else.
'Snapped! '
Sikong Jin crushed the bamboo flute in her hand. She smelled the powder and could faintly identify it as a medicine to treat snake venom. She then put it into her sleeve and returned the way she came.
Meanwhile, Di Beizun was engaged in a fierce battle with dozens of men in black. The swift blade hidden in Di Beizun's sleeve was already drawn, and the surrounding area was filled with the corpses of more than a dozen men in black. The fighting was ruthless, with splattered fragments of flesh and blood, as well as severed limbs, everywhere. The black blade flashed, leaving trails of crimson light that almost engulfed the flickering firelight around him. Screams of agony pierced the silent rainy night.
Sikong Jin was used to Di Beizun's methods. This guy's swordsmanship was almost perfect. In the blink of an eye, before the two black-clad men who rushed forward could even shout, Di Beizun's cold blade had already pierced through their chests. Without pausing for a moment, the blade flashed and began to pierce the chest of the next target...
In just a few blinks of an eye, the dozens of men in black were reduced to less than ten.
The ground was covered with corpses and severed limbs, and the thick stench of blood filled the air; even the rain falling from the sky was red.
The surviving men in black were so frightened that they staggered backward, their legs trembling uncontrollably. The sharp blades in their hands trembled violently, and their eyes were filled with terror as they stared at Di Beizun, who stood amidst the corpses, wielding a curved blade.
“Tell me about your employer and the details of the assassins you arranged to ambush you, and I will let you die a quick death.”
Emperor Beizun's voice, as cold as frost, rang out, causing the man in black to tremble uncontrollably once again!
devil!
so horrible!
The person in front of me is simply a devil!
so horrible!
Seeing the river of blood flowing at his feet, littered with the severed limbs and fragments of his companions, the surviving man in black was utterly horrified. He didn't even dare to look into the man's cold, sharp eyes, which were filled with murderous intent!
"If they won't talk, then let them die!"
Sikong Jin's cold and cruel voice rang out, "Anyway, I know who your employer is. Tonight, all of these people will be wiped out. No one will be spared. The people in front will not know what happened tonight!"
"Then it's as you say!"
Upon hearing Sikong Jin's words, Di Beizun's scimitar flashed and he swung it up again!
"Brothers, let's fight!"
The man in black seemed to know he couldn't leave tonight, so he gritted his teeth, suppressed his fear, and charged forward frantically.
"Hmph! Let's see how you court death!"
Sikong Jin snorted coldly, and with a flash of crimson sword light, she swiftly thrust forward.
'Ding ding!'
'Pfft!'
The sound of clashing swords was exceptionally clear in the rainy night. A series of shrill screams rang out, but before they could finish, they were abruptly cut off as the cold, sharp swords had already slit their throats.
In a short while, all the men in black fell to the ground, and the venomous snake that had just attacked them had long since disappeared.
Di Beizun stood amidst the mountain of corpses, coldly observing everything before him. He disdainfully took out a clean white handkerchief from his sleeve, wiped the blood from the blade, and then slowly sheathed his sword. He casually straightened his slightly disheveled sleeves and looked at Sikong Jin.
At this moment, Sikong Jin was also retracting the Moon Soul. She squinted at the corpses lying all over the ground in front of her. After a while, she met the gaze cast by Di Beizun and said indifferently, "Are you alright?"
"It's alright. If I'm not mistaken, these people should be assassins from the Demon Sound Hall in Luoyang City, barely qualifying as a second-rate assassin group in the martial arts world. It seems that Xing Qiyu didn't expect you to be so capable."
Emperor Beizun sneered.
Sikong Jin shrugged, put Yue Po back into his sleeve, and habitually touched his nose, wondering, "I reckon Xing Qiyu probably doesn't know that you came back with me in person, right?"
As she spoke, she slightly lifted the black veil in front of her and looked at Di Beizun with some doubt, "I really find it strange. I'm dressed like this, so how can they still recognize us?"
Upon hearing this, Di Beizun smiled coldly and glanced at Sikong Jin indifferently, "Don't underestimate the eyes and ears of the martial arts world. Take our Fengyun Tower for example, if we really want to find out something, there is almost nothing we can't find out."
As soon as Di Beizun finished speaking, Sikong Jin immediately thought of Jianghu Tianwenzi, Di Yuanyun!
I never expected that she would be this guy's elder sister!
The noble and dignified princess of the Great Zhou Dynasty!
They would never have guessed this, would they? Even Sikong Jin herself didn't expect it, let alone that Di Beizun was actually the mysterious and unpredictable master of Fengyun Tower. She remembered that back in Malan City, Jing Su was obsessed with him, and the painting in his hand could almost fetch an astronomical price at auction. Is this guy really that powerful?
Why is she with him now, aside from finding him good-looking and skilled in martial arts, that everything else about him seems terrible—he's short-tempered, jealous, cruel, and bloodthirsty…
Thinking of this, Lord Sikong couldn't help but rub his forehead, take a deep breath, and then remove the black veil from his head. "That fellow actually said I was dressed as a woman! Emperor Beizun, do you think I'm not beautiful or pretty in women's clothing? What kind of taste does that person have? He actually said that I dressed as a woman to avoid being seen by spies?"
At this point, Lord Sikong felt somewhat unbalanced.
"Now you're not worried about people being able to tell you're a woman?"
Di Beizun said this indifferently, threw down the handkerchief in his hand, and walked towards Sikong Jin.
Lord Sikong shrugged dismissively. "Since things have come to this point, there's no use being afraid. As long as we rescue them, I'll rebel against them! My father was a loyal and virtuous general, and after his death, they treat me and my mother like this. Such loyalty, humph..."
"It's good that you can understand this point. Sometimes, forbearance is also a drawback. I hope you won't hesitate. It's better to act decisively in some matters. Too much worry only gives others an opportunity."
Emperor Beizun said calmly.
Sikong Jin rubbed his temples and sighed, "If I had your skills and resources, I wouldn't be so frustrated!"
