Chapter 705

His clothes had long since been soaked through with blood.

At this moment, his entire body was trembling violently.

"Ah."

A wave of darkness washed over his vision.

The intense pain made Xu Da unable to hold back a painful roar.

Yuan Zuozong, hidden in the shadows, saw the assassin's movements were so clean and efficient, and a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes.

He liked people who did things so cleanly and efficiently.

However, he also knew that if he didn't intervene, this Xu Da would likely lose his life tonight.

The assassin did not hesitate; after kicking Xu Da flying, he raised his long sword and lunged toward him.

It seemed he wanted to finish off Xu Da in the shortest time possible.

At this moment, Xu Da felt as if all the strength in his body had already drained away.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the assassin rushing toward him.

But his whole body was like a pile of mud, collapsed on the ground, completely unable to dodge.

A sense of despair flashed in his eyes, and he slowly closed them, waiting for the arrival of death.

Immediately after, he heard the sound of clashing.

Clang.

The sound of weapons colliding rang out before him.

Then, Xu Da felt a cold breeze blow past his face.

When he opened his eyes again, he saw a burly figure standing before him, blocking the assassin's attack.

The assassin before him also had a flash of surprise in his eyes.

It seemed he hadn't expected that there would be someone else hidden in the shadows protecting his target.

"Get lost!"

The assassin's hoarse voice rang out in the room.

"If you want his life, you have to ask if I agree."

A cold sneer appeared on the corner of Yuan Zuozong's mouth.

The long sword in his hand slid, leaving a flash of brilliant light in the night.

Xu Da, lying on the ground and on the verge of death, saw this burly figure, and a hint of confusion flashed in his eyes.

He didn't know this person at all; why would this man suddenly appear before him?

A hint of solemnity flashed in the assassin's eyes.

He had originally thought this would be an easy task to complete, but now he realized it was still somewhat difficult.

Seeing that this person had no intention of leaving, he didn't waste words.

He raised the long sword in his hand, and a gleam of sword light appeared before him.

The martial arts that these assassins learned were all about being fast, ruthless, and accurate.

In the blink of an eye, his figure had already appeared beside Yuan Zuozong...

Yuan Zuozong seemed very powerful and immediately raised his sword to parry.

The two began to fight directly inside the room.

Yuan Zuozong had no intention of attacking, standing in the room in a completely defensive posture.

Yet even so, the assassin was completely unable to break through Yuan Zuozong's defense.

They stalemated for a long time.

The assassin's patience was slowly being consumed bit by bit.

Catching a glimpse of Xu Da lying to the side, the assassin changed the direction of his attack.

He wanted to end Xu Da's life directly.

A cold light immediately flashed in Yuan Zuozong's eyes.

Then, his figure moved.

He appeared before the assassin with an extremely swift speed.

The long sword in his hand carried terrifying power, slashing horizontally from top to bottom.

A hint of terror flashed in the assassin's eyes as he raised his long sword, wanting to block this attack.

But he found that his long sword snapped upon impact under this terrifying force.

Subsequently, the momentum of the long sword in Yuan Zuozong's hand did not diminish, and it slashed directly onto the assassin's arm.

An arm was severed directly, and blood sprayed out.

Suffering this attack, a look of fear appeared on the assassin's face.

Relying on his remaining strength, his figure retreated violently and rapidly.

After putting some distance between himself and Yuan Zuozong, the assassin frowned in pain.

His long sword was broken, and his arm had been cut off.

"Are you sure you want to make an enemy of our Liusha Organization?"

The assassin stared fixedly at Yuan Zuozong.

He didn't believe this person hadn't heard of the Liusha Organization.

Throughout the entire Jianghu, there was no faction that dared to directly offend their Liusha Organization.

"Liusha?"

Hearing this name, a hint of contemplation flashed in Yuan Zuozong's eyes.

This seemed to be a faction created by Zhao Gao back in the day.

After dealing with Zhao Gao, he hadn't expected this faction to still be preserved.

It was truly interesting.

"Get lost!"

Yuan Zuozong spat out the word lightly, his eyes carrying a touch of coldness.

A hint of unwillingness flashed in the assassin's eyes.

He hesitated for a moment, and just as he prepared to leave, he felt a sense of threat surge into his heart.

The next moment, his eyes widened, and his entire body collapsed to the ground.

His severed head rolled away, and the man had already lost all signs of life.

"I gave you a chance, but unfortunately, you didn't know how to cherish it."

Yuan Zuozong withdrew his gaze and then looked at Xu Da to the side.

Xu Da had long since fallen into a coma.

After confirming that this person was only severely injured but not in life-threatening danger, Yuan Zuozong left the place directly.

Xu Da was only discovered by his family the next morning.

Fortunately, after being discovered, a physician was immediately summoned, and he was temporarily out of life-threatening danger.

The news of Xu Da being assassinated naturally spread like wildfire throughout Xianyang City.

………

"Father, you must severely punish the culprit."

Prince Fusu said to Ying Zheng with an indignant face.

During this period, Xu Da had been a great help by his side.

He hadn't expected him to encounter an assassination; Prince Fusu could not sit idly by.

Therefore, the moment he learned the news, he came to Ying Zheng.

He was prepared to make Ying Zheng severely punish the culprit.

Ying Zheng had naturally heard about the events of this morning as well.

And he knew much more detail than Prince Fusu.

"Do you know which faction attacked Xu Da?"

Ying Zheng asked.

"The Shadow Guard has already told me; the one who attacked Xu Da is indeed the Liusha Organization." ===== CHAPTER 707 =====
