Chapter 37: Assassination

"Is this the capital?"

After more than half a month of sailing, Li Xiuran and others finally arrived at the capital city smoothly. Looking at the city walls made of huge rocks, which were more than ten meters high and wide, they were slightly impacted.

"That's right, this is the capital city. Are you scared by the city wall? This is the reaction of the first time people come here. Don't be too surprised. There are even more eye-opening buildings that will be taller than the city wall. The tallest one is ten feet tall, and you can't see it easily in other places." Lin Fengkai replied with a smile, with a proud expression.

One zhang is equal to three meters and three, ten zhang is thirty-three meters, haha...

That's it?

You are afraid you have never seen a skyscraper... Li Xiuran, who is used to seeing tall buildings, expressed his lack of interest.

The imperial envoy returned to Beijing, but the city gate guards did not dare to investigate, and the group successfully entered the city gate.

Lin Yanjiang looked at the sky and said, "It's a bit late. It seems that I can't enter the palace today. I will stay at the inn for one night first, and then enter the palace tomorrow to report to Your Majesty."

The imperial envoy was ordered to leave the capital, and the imperial envoy was responsible for the imperial envoy. Before he submitted the imperial envoy to the emperor, the responsibilities were not finished, and he could not go home even if he returned to the capital.

When I came back early, I went directly to the palace gate to wait for the order. When I came back late, I could only go to the inn to stay for one night. On the one hand, I showed that I was focused on my business and on the other hand, I also expressed my respect for the emperor.

It was almost evening when Li Xiuran and others entered the city. When they arrived at the palace, the palace gates were probably closed, so they could only stay at the inn for one night.

"Mr. Lin, are you back? Please come in quickly." Seeing Lin Yanjiang and his group arrived, the postmaster hurriedly came out.

Lin Yanjiang nodded slightly.

Qin Haofeng stepped forward and ordered: "Go and prepare a few rooms, prepare some wine and food, move quickly, and rush back to the capital, you are hungry."

"Yes, yes, Lord Lin goes to the room for a little rest first. I will order someone to prepare now." The Yicheng agreed and hurriedly prepared.

In order to facilitate the travel of officials and transmit messages, there were stations in various parts of the Huyan Empire, and the capital was no exception. Moreover, since the identities of officials to be received were mostly more noble, the specifications of the Beijing Inn was also the highest.

When Li Xiuran was exposed to the light of Lin Yanjiang, he also got a room with carved beams and painted buildings, which were spacious and spacious, and even had bath water for guests to bathe.

Li Xiuran took a shower and changed her clothes. She felt refreshed and her fatigue over the past half month had been reduced a lot. The wine and food were then prepared and delivered to the room.

Filling his stomach, Li Xiuran went to bed directly. The boat was bumpy all the way and hadn't slept well for half a month. Now he finally lay on the bed. A moment of sleepiness suddenly surged over. Just as he was about to fall asleep, a loud noise suddenly came from outside, which suddenly woke Li Xiuran up again.

What's wrong? Is this? It's thundering? The weather just now didn't seem to be raining?

Li Xiuran felt puzzled, and then he heard a burst of exclamation from outside the door.

"There's a fire there!"

"Why does it feel a bit like a palace when looking at the direction?"

"Look, someone is fighting!"

"Is this...Is someone going to the palace for assassination?!"

Go to the palace for assassination?

Li Xiuran's heart was thrilled, and suddenly felt guilty. He had just arrived in the capital, and then someone went to the palace to assassinate him. Could it be such a coincidence?

Could it be that he was affected by his bad luck again?

Li Xiuran was shocked and stood up and walked out quickly.

Lin Yanjiang and others also went out and were looking in the direction of the fire. Fires surged into the sky in the southeast of the capital, illuminating most of the sky. With the firelight, we could see a man in black fighting against someone above the palace.

Li Xiuran quickly walked to several people and asked, "Is it the palace that is on fire?"

Lin Yanjiang said in a deep voice: "Look at the direction, it is indeed."

"Who is so bold that he dares to assassinate the palace? The palace is so strict, so it shouldn't be difficult to take him down, right?" Lin Fengkai frowned.

"It's hard to say." Han Lu's face looked a little solemn: "The assassin is very strong and can control the air. His cultivation is at least in the realm of creation, or even higher. It's difficult to take him down with the guards in the palace alone, and even... His Majesty may be in danger!"

Realm of Creation?!

Lin Yanjiang and others' faces suddenly became a little heavier. Flying in the air is a ability that can only be found above the Creation Realm. In this world of cultivation, people understand the terrifying destructive power that a powerful person in the Creation Realm can bring, and the murderer is likely to be more than the Creation Realm...

Li Xiuran's face also became a little strange. Before he came, he thought that someone might be affected by him when he arrived in the capital, but he never expected that the first victim would be the emperor?

Is his toxicity so strong?

On the distant palace, the battle situation was indeed as Han Lu said. Not only did the guards fail to capture the assassin, but they were almost killed by the man in black in just a short moment. Without the guards, the next one to be dangerous is probably the emperor...

Lin Yanjiang became heavier and wanted Han Lu to go to provide support, but the palace was in a serious place without an order, and no one was allowed to trespass, and he did not dare to make arbitrary claims.

"Huh? Someone is here again!"

"That's... the national teacher!"

"The national teacher is here!"

Suddenly, just as the man in black killed all the guards, a figure rushed towards the palace and blocked the assassin almost instantly. He raised his hand and slapped him, fighting with the assassin.

Is he the number one master of Huyan Empire, the commander of the Demon Suppressing Department and the national teacher of the dynasty - Feng Beichen?

Li Xiuran looked at the figure fighting with the assassin in the distance, and his glasses lit up slightly.

Lin Yanjiang and others also breathed a sigh of relief. The title of Feng Beichen's number one master was almost everyone knows. With his actions, it obviously made the few people feel much more at ease.

"It's indeed the national teacher. With him taking action, I'm sorry that the assassin can't make any troubles." Lin Fengkai said with a firm smile.

Then, looking at the battle situation in the distance, the smile gradually became calmer and gradually changed to a hint of astonishment.

In the distance, although Feng Beichen's attack was rapid and almost suppressed the assassin throughout the whole process, the assassin was not powerless to fight back, and he was not even panicked when dealing with it.

It is obvious that the assassin's strength is also in the realm of Heaven and Humanity. Although he is not as good as Feng Beichen, he also has the power to protect himself. It is not difficult for Feng Beichen to defeat him.

"How could it be..." Lin Fengkai murmured in dismay.

Lin Yanjiang's face became solemn again.

"Commander Yan has arrived!" Han Lu suddenly said in a deep voice.

Li Xiuran was excited and hurriedly looked to the side. Sure enough, he saw another figure roaring over, jumping up to the palace, and joining forces with Feng Beichen to siege the assassin.

The situation suddenly reversed.

The assassin who could barely deal with Feng Beichen was quickly defeated with the addition of Commander Yan. Feng Beichen found an opportunity to slapped his body and flew backwards.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the assassin knew that he would not have the chance to assassinate again if he stayed there. When more experts arrived, it would be difficult for him to escape. He was decisive and turned around and flew out of the palace with the inertia of being knocked away.
