Zhang Xuezhou stretched his wings and hovered quietly in the sky above the Holy Land of Yiji River.
Looking down from a height of tens of meters, Venerable Lei and Hongku both turned into people the size of a finger, and looking higher up, there was a palace covered in clouds and mist.
Compared with the black stone residences of the Dharma Kings on the mountainside, the palaces located higher on the holy mountain are made of gray-white boulders.
This gray-white color does not make the palace look old, but gives it a marble-like texture, making it look luxurious and majestic.
Going further up is the top of the Holy Mountain.
It was the legendary land of Dao Lord, and it was wrapped in a thick cloud. Even if Zhang Xuezhou widened his eyes, he couldn't see anything in the cloud.
His eyes swept around the major palaces, and the novelty brought by the buildings quickly faded after just over ten seconds.
There are many ways of flying in "Yunzhongshu". Zhang Xuezhou can still flutter and then do a certain circling flying. Zhang Xuezhou wonders whether this level of flying can catch the eyes of Lord Lei.
But Zhang Xuezhou's small thoughts are quickly fading.
Even if Lord Lei thinks highly of him and is willing to provide him with follow-up information related to "Yunzhongshu", Zhang Xuezhou holding the inheritance jade will be of no use.
For them at the moment, how to kill Hong Ku and escape safely has become the most important thing at the moment.
If Hongku does not die, Wuchao will surely suffer disaster.
After Wuchao, Zhang Xuezhou lacked the possibility of resistance.
"It's a pity that I'm a little too weak!"
Zhang Xuezhou stretched his wings and slightly shook the deer-cutting knife in his sleeve.
The horizontal sprint was far slower than the dive. He was at an excellent height for the assassination, but it was difficult for Zhang Xuezhou to seize this assassination opportunity.
"If senior brother were in my position and had the ability to attack and kill on the fly, he might have already launched a surprise attack!"
Zhang Xuezhou gestured.
He aimed his gaze at the dry figure in the black stone residence below.
In just three to five seconds, he could rush to Hong Ku's side and chop off the opponent's head with a single blow.
But Hong Ku is no straw man.
Once Hongku senses the risk, Zhang Xuezhou can be suppressed instantly by simply using the intimidating pressure brought by the realm, not to mention using magic to counterattack.
The second-level "Great Wilderness Creation Sutra" is obviously not enough for Zhang Xuezhou to face the suffering. Only the fifth-level "Great Wilderness Creation Sutra" can avoid this threat...
Zhang Xuezhou was making various small plans in his mind to deal with Hong Ku. When a sound of surprise came from below, Zhang Xuezhou suddenly realized that something fell while he was swinging.
He shook his sleeve and felt that the deer knife used for the assassination was still in it.
"It's the soul-breaking powder of Maurya Dynasty!"
Zhang Xuezhou looked down and saw a red mist shrouding Hongku's courtyard.
Not only was Hongku not prepared for such emergencies, Master Lei apparently was not careful about throwing objects at high altitudes either, and the protection of Hongku's residence was relaxed because of his test flight.
"Master Hongku?"
"Lord Lei?"
"Are you guys OK?"
Zhang Xuezhou's scalp felt slightly numb, and he shouted several times downwards.
When the violent coughing sound came, Zhang Xuezhou spread his wings and quickly fell downwards.
"Don't...don't slap...ah~"
Zhang Xuezhou flapped his wings and the waves that fell caused Hong Kuan to suffer so much that he let out a long groan.
The Great Conjurer was not a warrior, and his ability to react with his body was really poor. Moreover, he was focused on promoting physiognomy for Venerable Lei at the time, and was not prepared for such a sudden physical attack at all.
As for Venerable Lei, he is extremely interested in waiting for the results of his deductions.
Of course, even in a state of waiting and watching the results, Venerable Lei's powerful body still reacted.
But Hongku would rather Venerable Lei didn't slap him in the face.
When Venerable Lei struck, the electric current was mixed with sparks, which seemed to explode something, causing more trouble.
"Wu Jin, what on earth did you throw down?"
Hongku hugged his head tightly, feeling that every part of his body was burning.
It was difficult for him to open his eyes. Whenever he opened his eyes even a little bit, he would feel a sharp sting.
His nostrils seemed to be spitting fire, and the stinging pain in his mouth made him spit out saliva.
After vomiting several times in a row, Hongku felt a wave of wind falling down, and there was a pinch of powder in his mouth, making his body even more uncomfortable.
"Teacher, this is the soul-severing powder!" Zhang Xuezhou shouted: "The soul-severing powder from the Peacock Dynasty, I got it from Brother Wuchao. I don't know how it fell. I was flying on it. Don’t even know about this!”
"I hate this stuff!"
After hearing clearly the name mentioned by Zhang Xuezhou, Hong Ku rushed into his house in disgrace.
"Master Hongku's physiognomy can detect others, but it seems that he cannot detect the troubles he encounters!"
Compared to Hong Ku's miserable state, there was nothing unusual about Venerable Lei.
On his body, bursts of blue electric light kept flashing, and a little fire light ignited from time to time, burning the soul-breaking powder completely.
Venerable Lei even licked his lips with great interest, feeling the smell of the burnt soul-severing powder.
"In the future, you can ask Master Hongku for a bag to avoid dropping things when flying," Venerable Lei stood up and said.
Although Hongku suffered a disaster, this little trouble did not bother Hongku and did not require his intervention.
And now it's time for him to go out and walk around to verify Hong Xiangshu.
Lord Lei stretched out his finger, counted eighteen times, felt the time indicated by Hong Ku, and then walked out of the house slowly.
"As for me... I can still ask Master Hongku to collect the money!"
The door closed with a creak, Zhang Xuezhou looked around, and then whispered back.
He glanced outside the Black Stone Mansion.
The opportunity to assassinate Hongku appeared inadvertently, but Wuchao was not outside, and Jinchang never sneaked into it.
Zhang Xuezhou was very sure and certain that Hong Ku was in a very bad condition and the success of the assassination was likely to be extremely high.
He frowned slightly for a few times, then turned his head back abruptly.
"I'm going to see if the teacher needs any help?"
Zhang Xuezhou reached out and grasped the deer-cutting knife in his sleeve.
Wu Chao is the main force against Hongku, but if there is enough opportunity, Zhang Xuezhou doesn't mind being the main force for once, even if he is a pawn.
Not to mention that he killed Hong Ku, Zhang Xuezhou felt that everything was enough as long as he cut Hong Ku's body with several knives to eliminate the threat of the other party and put the other party in a state of lack of resistance.
"Ujin, Wujin..."
The sound of Hongku shouting came, and Zhang Xuezhou was convinced. He picked up his sleeves to cover his eyes and nose, and then quickly rushed into the room in the house.
"Teacher, here I come!"
"Pour water, pour water, quickly, quickly, I want water, lots of water!"
When Zhang Xuezhou rushed into the room, he saw Hongku grabbing a dry towel and patting his body randomly, constantly cleaning the soul-breaking powder stained on his skin.
But Hong Ku's eyes never opened.
The powder of the Soul-Severing Powder sticks to the corners of the opponent's eyes, and opening them will inevitably cause huge stinging pain in the eyes.
He vigorously patted the dust on his body, and quickly urged Zhang Xuezhou to pour water to help clean it.
"Teacher, I have caused you so much trouble, will you blame me?"
Zhang Xuezhou touched his sleeve pocket, and the Eternal Water of the Body Poison Kingdom immediately slipped from his palm.
A glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and he quickly scooped up a few ladles of water. The sound of rushing water continued to ripple in Zhang Xuezhou's heart, and then it was mixed with the eternal water.
