As soon as the powerful Tianzhu Spin Blade Sword Formation was broken, the assassins suddenly fell into chaos. This was the only way they rely on to fight Ye Fan. They lost the opportunity to join forces to fight against the enemy. They were unable to fight with Ye Fan in close combat in the scattered state.

"Bingyin!"

Ye Fan did not waste any opportunity, and his figure took a step and disappeared out of thin air.

"Combo Slash!"

Then it suddenly flashed ten feet away, and a golden light burst out, and the mammoth sword attacked the nearest black-clothed assassins.

No one can resist his strong attack, and no one can catch up with his unpredictable Ice Yin footwork.

In a blink of an eye, several assassins tried to resist and fell into a pool of blood.

"withdraw!"

The assassin leader's face changed slightly. Seeing that the opportunity to continue siege had been lost, he immediately shouted to retreat. As an assassin, he was proficient in escape techniques. A wind-type escape method flashed one or two hundred feet away in an instant.

More than ten assassins who were still alive immediately abandoned the battle and fled. They each used the Qimen escape technique, rushed to the houses on both sides of the main street, and quickly escaped with the help of the complex terrain.

They are not unable to continue fighting with Ye Fan.

It’s just because this is the street of the Imperial City, which is only more than ten miles away from the Imperial Palace. A large number of city guards and even imperial guards arrived at any time.

Their chance to attack is only ten breaths. No matter whether the assassination succeeds or not, they must retreat immediately as soon as the time comes.

Otherwise, when the Royal Guards arrive, they will not even have a chance to escape.

Gu Xinyue raised his bow, and another Water Moon God Hidden Bow was shot. A special "tracking arrow" shot and escaped from the back of the assassin leader seven or eight hundred feet away.

The assassin leader did not expect that he would escape so far and was even attacked fiercely. He screamed in pain in his heart, and fell to the ground, desperately fleeing into the complex alleys of the imperial city.

Neither Ye Fan nor Gu Xinyue chased after him, and seemed to have no intention of the group of assassins escaping. Liu was waiting for the upcoming imperial guards or city guards in the place where they were attacked.

Swish, swish!

Just as the black-clad assassins fled in scattered, in less than ten breaths, a team of more than ten royal guards rushed to arrive faster than the city guards.

The team leader was the leader of Changsun Dehao, the Royal Imperial Guard who had fought with Ye Fan in the Void Arena.

This main street is very close to the palace and is originally the edge of the Royal Guards' daily patrol and guarding.

When the royal guards saw Ye Fan standing with blood swords and the bodies of several black-clothed assassins on the ground, they were shocked and looked at each other.

When Changsun Dehao saw that Ye Fan was attacked, his face changed several times.

He was defeated by Ye Fan and almost lost all his face. He naturally had no good feelings for Ye Fan. He wanted Ye Fan to be attacked.

However, Ye Fan's attack was a major event involving the affairs of the Zixuan Dynasty, and it was not something he, a squad leader of the Imperial Guard, could cover it up.

"These assassins are too bold and dare to assassinate the commander of our dynasty in broad daylight, only more than ten miles away from the palace, and to assassinate the commander of our dynasty on the street! Brother Ye, then immediately ordered his brothers to investigate their origins. The whole city wanted these assassins and would never let them escape!"

Changsun Dehao couldn't help but be furious and bowed to Ye Fan.

Ye Fan was not an ordinary martial artist without official titles. He was personally appointed as the commander of the Mammoth Corps of the Zixuan Dynasty by Emperor Zixuan. Even if the corps is still just an empty shell, he is one of the important officials of the dynasty.

When Ye Fan was assassinated, he would definitely shake the Zixuan Dynasty's court and the country in a short time, and he did not dare to neglect the situation at all.

Immediately, several Royal Guards carefully inspected the bodies of several black-clad assassins on the street.

However, they shook their heads at Changsun Dehao and found nothing.

They are all unfamiliar Martial Kings, without any identity marks or marks on them. Even their Xuan soldiers are the most common weapons. There is no name or mark of the weapon refiner on the Xuan weapons, and I don’t know where the workshop was created.

Changsun Dehao couldn't help but have a headache.

It seems that these assassins have been prepared for a long time and have cleared all the clues, so it is difficult to trace the origin of the assassin.

This is normal, too.

The only legendary martial king of the Zixuan Dynasty who assassinated the Zixuan Dynasty on the street, the commander of the Mammoth Corps appointed by Emperor Zixuan. These assassins will definitely not dare to reveal their origins, otherwise it will bring a catastrophe to the forces behind them.

If you find evidence directly on the assassin, it is likely to be forged and want to frame others.

"We went to the princess's Meitai banquet. We just came out of the palace and were ambushed by assassins on the street. The news of these assassins was very informative, and they were so smart that they even had the intelligence in the palace!

I believe Your Majesty never wants to see that someone in the palace dares to collude with the assassin. If you are the one who led the team, please follow me to arrest people and see who is behind the scenes! Your Majesty asks about this, so you can give Your Majesty an explanation."

Ye Fan said with a cold face.

Such a coincidence must be inseparable from the people in the palace. But it is definitely not instructed by Emperor Zixuan, Princess Ji Rouyu and others, so there is no need for this.

Among the suspects, especially You Chujie and his group of state religion forces who attended the Meitai Banquet are the most suspected!

You Chujie and others proposed to fight for wine!

The Wu Kings were all drunk, which led to the early end of this year's Meitai Banquet.

Otherwise, if this was not the case, he and Gu Xinyue would not have left the palace alone at this time. This group of assassins would not be able to pick this excellent opportunity to start assassination.

All of these have enough reasons to doubt You Chujie.

You Chujie also had enough motivation. Before he planned to join the Zixuan Kingdom Sect, You Chujie planned to take the initiative and get rid of himself first, so as not to join the Zixuan Kingdom Sect and become the second personal disciple of Pope You Xingchen, threatening You Chujie's status in the Zixuan Kingdom Sect!

However, without evidence, he could not flatly accuse these assassins of being the one who was assigned by You Chujie.

The children of aristocratic families who attended the banquet were also suspected, but the suspicion was relatively weak.

"These assassins died and fled. Brother Ye knew where the assassins had escaped?"

Changsun Dehao's face jumped, and he was surprised instead.

"The assassin leader has been seriously injured and has been bleeding profusely. He must not be able to escape. He needs to find a safe place to heal his wounds! Within half an hour, he cannot escape from the imperial city."

Ye Fan looked cold and didn't say much.

He and Gu Xinyue came to the injured place where the assassin leader was seven or eight hundred feet away.

The assassin leader was hit by Gu Xinyue's heavy arrow, leaving a lot of dark blood on the ground.

Gu Xinyue has been practicing bow skills recently. In addition to various combat skills, there are also many arrows for various purposes.

The arrow she used was not an ordinary black iron arrow, but a special "tracking arrow", designed specifically to track injured enemies.

On the triangular diamond-shaped arrow, there are cross-type barbs with complex shapes. Once the arrow is pierced into the flesh, the barbs will pop up immediately. They cannot be pulled down in the front and reverse directions, and blood will flow out in large quantities along the triangle arrow.

These blood drops on the ground, and naturally it is difficult to cover up its traces and will reveal where they are escaping.

The bleeding can only be stopped unless the arrow and the entire piece of meat are dug out.

However, this will only make the injury worse and cause King Wu to lose most of his combat effectiveness. He must be in a very safe place to do so.

What's even more troublesome is that the arrow is touched and poisonous, and it spreads rapidly throughout the body in a very short period of time, which will bring extremely strong side effects such as dizziness and paralysis to the enemy, which will make the opponent unable to escape far and cannot escape for dozens of miles.

The assassin leader knew that there was a poison on the arrow, he would be eager to find the safest hiding place to drive away the poison and heal the wounds with all his might and save his life.

Such assassination must have been well planned and various methods of absconding have been prepared long ago.

Such panic moves can easily expose the mastermind behind the assassin.

Because of this, Ye Fan and Gu Xinyue were not in a hurry to chase after the assassin leader when they saw the assassin leader being shot, and allowed the assassin leader to flee to a safe hiding place.

The two were waiting for the Royal Guards and the City Guards to come on the spot, "chasing the murderers" together, and tracking down the mastermind behind these assassins.

"Go! He ran away there!"

Ye Fan sniffed the smell of blood and said.

Along the way, you can find blood beads dripping from the assassin.

The assassin leader fled in great panic along the way, fearing that Ye Fan and Gu Xinyue would chase him, so he would not have time to cover up the blood that had not dripped along the way.

Moreover, the poison in his body occurred very quickly, and his mind became extremely drowsy. He could only escape with all his strength, and did not have the ability to clear the traces behind him.

Changsun Dehao was a little helpless and could only follow Ye Fan to chase the murderer.

This assassination case is very serious. If the pursuit of the murder is not effective, he will be sued wherever his Majesty is sued. I am afraid that all the royal guards will be severely punished.

After more than ten breaths, Ye Fan, Gu Xinyue, Changsun Dehao and other imperial guards, the Wuwang Kings, chased several streets and tracked them into an alleyway, outside a luxurious mansion.

The last drop of blood disappeared completely outside the courtyard wall of this mansion. If nothing unexpected happens, I am afraid that the assassin will be unable to hold on and will climb over the wall and escape inside.

Whether the assassin is inside or not, you just need to go in and search and you will know.

This huge luxury mansion is a bit low-key and does not have any signs that indicate identity.

However, having a luxurious mansion in the imperial city is definitely either rich or noble, either a noble family or a background of a large force.

Even if the owner is low-key, everyone knows that the owner of such a mansion cannot be easily offended.

Ye Fan, no matter what kind of noble family it is, he dares to assassinate him on the street. Even the royal prince wants to investigate, and he is about to step forward to break the door.

Even the emperor cannot stop it.

Otherwise, there is no need for him to stay in the Zixuan Dynasty.

"Brother Ye, wait!"

Changsun Dehao's face changed slightly and he hurriedly stopped.

"What? Even the people here dare not search even your Royal Guard?"

Ye Fan's face darkened.

"This is not at the foot of the emperor. Except for the palace that requires His Majesty's handwriting, there is no guard who dares not investigate."

Changsun Dehao looked a little weird and said, "However, this is the headquarters of the Zihuang Sect in the Imperial City, and the envoy elder of the Zihuang Sect lives inside! If it is really an assassin instructed by the Zihuang Sect, how can Brother Ye deal with it? He completely turned against the Zihuang Sect? If Brother Ye is not prepared, it would be better not to enter this door."

"The headquarters of Zihuang Sect in the Imperial City?!"

Ye Fan and Gu Xinyue's faces changed.

Could this assassin have something to do with Zihuang Sect? Zihuang Sect wants to kill him?!

Ye Fan's face turned pale and looked gloomy, "If it were really an assassin sent by the Zihuang Sect, if he wanted to take my life, would he think I would not dare to turn against them?"

He slapped out with a palm.

"boom!"
