Zheng Lichen died in the official office of Yuwusi, and Yu Shiqi went to the imperial city at night alone like an assassin.

The newly appointed director of the Imperial Military Division who died shortly after taking office finally abided by his duty and did not reveal any information about the Imperial Military Division's defense in the imperial city. However, Yu Shiqi later found a copy of the document from his desk.

Patrol map.

After studying the annotations on the map, he was pleasantly surprised to find that sneaking into the Imperial City from the ground only required killing at least three Yuwusi sentries at fixed points. The Yuwusi patrols at other locations were mobile and there were ways to avoid them.

.

The defenses on this map were designed by Zheng Lichen. He must have considered this, so the three fixed sentries must have been assigned skilled men capable of handling their duties independently.

The first place is on the shooting platform on the east side of the pavilion road connecting the Imperial City Acropolis and the Inner City. Feng Minglei, the master of the Guiquan Lin Yinjian Sect, is guarding this place. The pavilion road here is the only way to invade the inner city.

The place, and the east shooting platform has a vast view, with an unobstructed view below. Yu Shiqi sneaked here and stopped hiding. Pretending not to know that the shooting platform was being watched, he boldly walked along the pavilion road towards the inner city, and led Feng Ming Lei to appear for battle.

When Feng Minglei jumped down from a high place to make a surprise attack, Yu Shiqi used an edgeless sword to dodge him within ten moves, shattering his sword and injuring him to the point where he could not stand up.

The second place is in the square in front of the palace in the inner city, guarded by Dan Luzi, a Qi practitioner from the Yuanzong of the Qing Dynasty.

The martial arts of the Qing Yuan Sect originated from the Taiyue Yuan Martial Arts Sect a hundred years ago. The Taiyue Yuan Martial Arts Sect adhered to the pursuit of Taoism and longevity and stayed away from the secular world. The sect was declining day by day, but the Qing Yuan Sect gradually grew stronger, and it once became a sect that stood side by side with the Desolate Sect and the Destiny Alliance.

The Jianghu sect is naturally inseparable from the support of the imperial court and Yuwusi.

When Dan Luzi saw Yu Shiqi, he knew that Feng Minglei had been breached. Although the assassin in front of him was young, his martial arts skills should not be underestimated. He did not take the initiative to attack like Feng Minglei, but wanted to kill the emperor as soon as possible.

The news of the city being invaded was passed on to other experts arranged by Yuwusi.

Yu Shiqi took the initiative to attack with his sword, preventing Dan Luzi from beating the drum nearby.

"Heavenly Swordsmanship?" Dan Luzi was shocked when he saw Yu Shiqi's sword attack. The person who came was actually using the martial arts of the Liu Family Sword Sect, which had frequently been used by royal guards. This made him quickly realize the danger of the visitor, and once again

Trying to sound a warning drum.

In the imperial city defense designed by Zheng Lichen, there are warning objects at three fixed points. The shooting platform on the east side where Feng Minglei is located is also equipped with an alarm bell. However, it is obvious that Feng Minglei is a martial artist and has not understood that Zheng Lichen arranged him in such a position.

Reasons for the important position.

Dan Luzi knew very well that the reason why the three of them were stationed at a fixed position was not simply to rely on their extraordinary martial arts to stop the intruders, but to hope that their martial arts would ensure that they could catch the intruder at the critical moment.

Before being killed by the opponent, sound the alarm and summon help to escort you.

The police drum made a thunderous sound, and Danluzi flew out vomiting blood.

Yu Shiqi was about to move on when the sound of burning flames in the air caught his attention.

Five red talismans were burned to ashes, and several red chains stretched out from the ground and wrapped around his limbs.

The secret talismans of Taiyue Yuanwu Dao Sect... This scene in front of him evoked Yu Shiqi's memory of being in the dream marsh. He quickly turned over to avoid the chains activated by Dan Luzi with the talisman, and at the same time, his true energy was released to detect the movement around him.

Although Danluzi only sounded the alarm drum once, for the guards arranged by Yuwusi, it was a sign of enemy attack.

The master of the spell was seriously injured, and there was no successor to the talisman. Naturally, it could not last long. After the red light talisman power on the chain dissipated, Yu Shiqi pulled out the Weiyin Hanfeng and easily killed it.

When Dan Luzi saw the sword in his hand, he suddenly said: "So you are from the Desolate Sect!"

"I'm here to kill Mu Qingxuan, and I'll also take care of the Yuwusi." Yu Shiqi heard the footsteps coming from all directions. They were of varying severity. There were masters of the Yuwusi who were plundering the ground with ease, and there were also imperial guards marching in formation in armor.

"My mission has been completed." Dan Luzi also knew that reinforcements were coming, and he would die without regrets.

Yu Shiqi quickly passed by him, hoping to rush to the imperial bedroom before being surrounded.

This is really not the assassin's style. If Jin Yang were here, he would definitely persuade him to retreat. No, Yu Shiqi thought to himself, if Jin Yang and others had followed him to the imperial capital, tonight's raid would probably not have happened.

They will use other methods to obtain the defense map of Yuwusi in the Imperial City, and then formulate a careful breakthrough plan for the three fixed checkpoints. Finally, they will arrive at Mu Qingxuan's palace without alerting the Imperial City guards and let him die that night.

In the arms of a sleeping concubine, this is what an assassin would do.

If both Mu Qingxuan and Zheng Lichen were to die, from the professional point of view of the Wangchuan Assassin, Mu Qingxuan must be killed first. Because attacking Zheng Lichen first will only reduce the error tolerance rate of assassinating Mu Qingxuan later.

But Yu Shiqi thought differently from the Wangchuan assassins. He didn't want the person he wanted to kill to die quietly. Such a death would not bring any satisfaction in revenge. That's why he was so hot-headed tonight.

Yuwusi made a non-stop raid on the imperial city.

He just wanted to forcefully eliminate the imperial city guards who Mu Qingxuan and Zheng Lichen had high hopes for, and then swagger in front of Mu Qingxuan and ask the emperor if he remembered the contribution Yunzhongjian of the Huangwu Sect had made to the world over the years.

and sacrifice.

The last fixed guard is in front of the Imperial Bedroom, and Liu Yiyang, the "Yunlong Sword Master" from the Liu Sword Sect, is in charge.

When Dan Luzi sounded the alarm drum, Liu Yiyang did not move because his duty was to stay in front of the emperor's chamber. Liu Yiyang was not surprised to see Yu Shiqi coming with a sword, because previously Dan Luzi's alarm drum had only sounded.

With a sound, it was obvious that the martial arts skills of the attacker were so high that the famous master of the Qingyuan Sect could not even issue a warning.

In this case, it is not surprising that the other masters of the Yuwu Division did not have time to intercept Dan Luzi at the second defense point before he fell.

Compared with Yu Shiqi who came to him from the second defense point so quickly, Liu Yiyang was surprised that as soon as they took action, there was a fierce exchange of heavenly swordsmanship. Liu Yiyang naturally understood the swordsmanship of the Liu Sword Sect better than Dan Luzi.

, it can be seen that Yu Shiqi's Heavenly Sword Technique is definitely not a copycat or an imitation. Such pure and sharp sword energy can only be used after receiving the Liu family's orthodox teaching.

The only difference is that Liu's Sword Sect's orthodox Heavenly Swordsmanship complements the unique internal skill Yang Jianjin, but the young man's Heavenly Swordsmanship in front of him is based on internal skills other than Yangjianjin.

Compared with the Heavenly Sword Technique activated by Yang Jianjin, the sword energy lacks the indomitable destruction and has more lightning-like swiftness.

After the exploratory Sky Swordsmanship exchange failed, both sides changed their moves at the same time, closing the distance and fighting closely. Liu Yiyang also saw clearly the autumn leaves in Yu Shiqi's hands at this time.

"Edgeless sword..." The moment he saw the sword, he thought of the female sword master who was of the same generation as him but was already famous all over the world.

The swords of both sides collided with each other. At the moment of stalemate, Yu Shiqi pulled out the second sword. Weiyin Hanfeng and Qiu Ye moved forward and backward, and the Flowing Wind Slash moved in circles.

Not to be outdone, Liu Yiyang chose to face the sword that was twisting like a whirlwind head-on with the Earthly Sword.

As the sword light circulated, only the eyes of the two sides interacted, and both sides could see the eternal sword intent in their opponent's eyes.

"The reinforcements from Yuwu Division will arrive in about ten breaths." Xilingyue's voice rang in Yu Shiqi's mind, reminding him to pay attention to the rhythm of the battle with Liu Yiyang.

It is even impossible for Shi Xi to break through the defensive sword network of the Earth Sword. Xiling Yue thinks it is impossible to defeat a famous senior sword master of the Liu Sword Sect in such a short period of time. She is already ready to help Yu Shi
