Chapter 368 Who instructed you
Since leaving the inheritance path, Zhang Yang's senses have become much sharper, and with the protection of the true qi in his body, his perception is far beyond that of ordinary people. Obviously, they were being followed. Fei Yu also became nervous when he saw this.
The stalker seemed to have noticed something was wrong and held his breath. The air was filled with tension and a battle was about to break out.
"Come out!" Zhang Yang shouted sternly. What kind of force was following them here?
As soon as he finished speaking, the birds in the forest were startled and flew away from the branches, flapping their wings.
Seeing Zhang Yang's reaction, Fei Yu immediately understood and pressed close to Zhang Yang's back. The two stood back to back and remained vigilant at all times.
At night, the wind was howling and the rain was dripping. Zhang Yang and Fei Yu stood back to back. It was terribly quiet around them, with only the sound of wind and rain. They held their breath. The enemy was in the dark, and they were in the light. Any slight movement could become an opportunity for the enemy to take action.
Who is it?
Zhang Yang thought quickly, who could have sent the assassin to kill him? Xiang Yu was impossible, because the scarred man he hired was on Zhang Yang's side; Zhao Gao was even less likely, because he only suspected Li Si and would never suspect Zhang Yang, who had been missing for fifteen years.
There is another possibility, but it sounds a bit ridiculous, that is, the government wanted them. But they are just a few fugitives, and they are not likely to attract such a master.
The hidden aura of this master is very concealed. This is the first time that Zhang Yang has encountered such an opponent since he came out of the road of inheritance. His five senses have no advantage in front of the opponent.
Zhang Yang secretly gathered his true energy, and held the Xuanyuan Sword tightly in his right hand, ready to unsheathe it at any time. If nothing else, as long as this master showed up, even if it was only for a second, Zhang Yang could instantly cut his throat.
The master obviously knew this and remained silent. After all, Zhang Yang was in the open and he was in the dark. As long as he continued to lurk, it was hard to say whose throat would be cut in the end.
Feiyu held the Shuihan sword tightly in his hand and scanned the surroundings vigilantly with his eyes. The coldness of the Shuihan sword became stronger and stronger. A thin layer of frost formed on the surrounding grass and trees, and even the rain condensed into ice beads.
The surrounding temperature gradually dropped, and even though Zhang Yang had the true qi to protect his body, he still felt a little chilly.
Suddenly, Zhang Yang's eyes lit up. His current disadvantage was that he didn't know where the expert was hiding. If he could find his exact location, Zhang Yang would be sure to make him go away without a chance to return.
And this cold air will be the key for him to find the master.
Zhang Yang sent a voice message to Fei Yu: "Fei Yu, continue to release cold air, the colder the better."
Upon hearing this, Fei Yu continued to mobilize his true Qi. The sword energy of the Shui Han Sword was cold and ordinary people could easily get frostbite. Zhang Yang had true Qi to protect his body, so he was naturally not afraid. The master also had true Qi, so he could still resist for the time being.
But Zhang Yang did not want to use the cold air to force the master to show up, but to find his location through the cold air.
In any case, the human body is always warm. When the surrounding temperature drops suddenly, those places that are still warm are where the masters hide.
Zhang Yang closed his eyes, magnified his five senses, and sensed carefully.
Feel carefully.
There! He suddenly opened his eyes, and the Xuanyuan Sword was unsheathed in an instant, with a surging and fierce sword energy, accompanied by the sound of breaking through the air, piercing straight into the treetops.
Almost at the same time when Zhang Yang opened his eyes, a black shadow flashed across the treetops, narrowly avoided the attack of the Xuanyuan Sword, lightly tapped the ground, and landed in front of Zhang Yang.
The Xuanyuan Sword did not stop, but rushed straight towards the tree, breaking the tree that three people could hug into pieces. The leaves flew all over the sky and fell between Zhang Yang and the master.
Zhang Yang waved his hand and the Xuanyuan Sword returned to his hand. He held the sword and looked at the master. The leaves fluttered and the raindrops fell. Neither of them spoke, but just stared at each other.
The master was dressed in black, his eyes were deep and terrifying, and his face was covered with black cloth, as if he wanted to blend into the darkness.
Seeing this, Fei Yu retracted the sword energy of the Shui Han Sword. The temperature around him immediately rose, and the sound of rain returned to its original sound, no longer the sound of ice beads falling...
"Who ordered you to do that?" Zhang Liang asked, staring at the killer in black.
He was very curious about who was willing to pay a huge sum of money to kill him. Judging from the killer's skills, the person who hired him must be very wealthy. Zhang Liang really couldn't remember that he hadn't offended anyone except Xiang Yu and Zhao Gao recently.
The killer in black looked at Zhang Liang in silence, then pulled out two gold-inlaid daggers from his waist. The blades flashed coldly in the night, and the rain slid over the blades and flowed down.
It seems that a battle is inevitable. Zhang Liang looked at the assassin in black and felt a little regretful. It was a pity that he could not use a master. Recently, Zhang Liang seemed to have contracted a certain "disease" and wanted to recruit anyone he saw. He had just returned from a mysterious training. Fifteen years had passed, and his relatives were gone. The world had also changed. It was no longer the Warring States period where the seven hegemons fought for hegemony, but the Qin State was the only one in the lead.
Think about myself. After years of inheritance, I have the ability to conquer the world, but there is no one around me to talk to. My heart is desolate.
What did he gain and what did he lose?
Now, he has nothing, and the only thing he can do is to pull Ying Zheng down from the throne. There can only be one king in this world, and that is him - Zhang Liang!
