Chapter 351
A somewhat hoarse voice came from beneath the black robe.
"Buying a life."
The man was clearly not here for the first time, as he handed the wooden tablet in his hand to the black-robed figure.
The black-robed figure took it and casually placed it into the bamboo tube beside him.
"Identity."
He then asked another question.
"Xu Da, the current Chancellor."
The man who had entered sat down opposite the black-robed figure, yet a significant distance still remained between the two.
"Five hundred silver taels."
The black-robed figure stated the price quickly.
The man had not expected that Xu Da's life would be so expensive.
After hesitating for a moment, he finally took out the silver banknotes.
"The sooner, the better."
After handing over the money, the man said this.
"Action tonight."
The black-robed figure said slowly, then reached out his hand to collect the silver banknotes from the table.
The man felt quite reassured by this organization, and upon hearing that they would act tonight, he nodded in satisfaction.
Walking back out of the wooden door, the shopkeeper at the entrance had once again fallen into a deep sleep.
The man did not dare to linger, withdrew his gaze, and left the restaurant with hurried steps.
He had heard that this shopkeeper was no simple character.
336. Powerful Sword Intent, Crushed! (Please subscribe!)
The water arrows above the lake surface continued unabated.
Yet, a powerful aura emanated from Ying Mo's body.
His black hair danced wildly,
and his sleeves billowed.
A terrifying sword intent slowly bloomed from Ying Mo's body.
A sound of sword humming echoed throughout the entire valley.
At this moment, the entire valley was like a graveyard of ten thousand swords, filled with biting sword intent.
If a master of the sword were here, they would likely have gained profound insights.
Yet, the few people present not only failed to feel the sword intent, but instead felt that the person before them was like a ghost from hell.
The Mohists hidden in the shadows felt that although this person's face was blocked by that mask,
those eyes were flashing with a cold light.
Just one glance from afar was enough to feel a chill.
A gloomy, murderous aura appeared on this person,
causing the few of them to shiver involuntarily.
One of them subconsciously looked toward the mechanism, and their pupils began to dilate uncontrollably.
"It's over, the energy is running out."
When the others heard these words, expressions of terror appeared on their faces simultaneously.
If even the water trap could not stop this man who was like a demon,
wouldn't they fall into his hands?
In an instant, the few of them felt as if a giant mountain were pressing down on their heads.
Their legs went weak, and they leaned directly against the wall.
"Perhaps he won't be able to find us either."
One of them said, full of wishful thinking.
After all, their current location was a heavily guarded mechanism site; ordinary people could never find their way here.
This person's words seemed to be a spark, reigniting the light in the eyes of the others.
"You're right, although we can't stop this person, he might not necessarily be able to find this place."
"Let's report the news here to the rear immediately."
One of them suppressed the fear in their heart and spoke.
The others nodded, and a mechanical bird appeared in their hands once again.
The mechanical bird could not only scout the situation but also serve as a communication tool.
Several mechanical birds flew out in succession.
When the last bit of energy was exhausted, a terrifying aura appeared directly in the valley.
The lake surface suddenly exploded, water splashing everywhere, blocking all vision.
When everything returned to calm, that small boat drifted peacefully on the water.
No one knew what had just happened.
But only Lu Li and the subordinate following behind knew clearly.
A terrifying aura had suddenly erupted from the Young Master.
This aura had directly shattered the water surface.
The mechanism hidden beneath the water was completely destroyed under this aura and power.
Even if these people replenished the energy, this water formation might not be able to be activated again.
The subordinate was only stunned for a moment; seeing the small boat drifting on the lake again, he immediately rowed the boat closer to the front.
He had already made up his mind: as long as he could stay by the Young Master's side, he was willing to do anything.
The small boat wandered on the lake surface again, and this time, the speed was much faster than before.
When the boat drifted past a rock, Ying Mo's gaze swept toward one spot.
It was this gaze that instantly made the few Mohists hidden behind go weak in the knees, their faces turning paper-white with fright.
They thought this person had already discovered them hiding here,
yet they didn't expect the boat to drift directly past them, heading further away.
"He shouldn't have discovered us, right...?"
"Probably not..."
One of them asked doubtfully.
But just as they hesitated,
a clanging sound rang out.
In that very instant, a streak of sword light directly slashed through their location.
Rumble...
A loud noise.
After a terrifying roar ended,
the depths of the rock where these people had originally been turned into ruins in an instant.
Several Mohist disciples disappeared from the lake surface along with those huge rocks.
Following the massive commotion, Ying Mo slowly withdrew his hand.
Lu Li, who was beside him, had originally thought they were going to head forward.
He never expected Ying Mo to suddenly strike at the rocks behind them.
Clearly holding no sword in his hand, yet it was as if he possessed a divine weapon.
With a casual swipe, a streak of sword light flowed out.
Clearly, Ying Mo's cultivation of swordsmanship had already reached the level of turning the formless into the tangible.
Lu Li looked at the long sword in his own hand involuntarily.
True masters are never constrained by the power of a weapon, but by their own strength.
Even if the Young Master held nothing in his hand right now, he feared he would not be the Young Master's match at all.
Lu Li had previously always felt that the long sword in his hand could be considered a very good weapon.
