On a night more than a month later, a huge procession was traveling on a wide official road.
There were four palanquins in the middle of the procession, and the one at the front was a royal palanquin with golden patterns. It was luxurious and noble.
There were three palanquins at the back. They were also more exquisite, but not as luxurious.
There were dozens of guards at the front and back of the palanquins. Every one of them had spiritual energy flowing through them. They were all experts at the Four Realms of the Sky Realm!
The person sitting in the palanquin with golden patterns was the ninth prince of the Thunderblaze Dynasty, Lei Haoqing!
At this moment, Lei Haoqing's face was glowing, and the corner of his mouth was brimming with a proud smile. Beside him, there was a young eunuch kneeling and massaging his legs.
Lei Haoqing laughed and said, "Haha, the top sect, the Thousand Illusionary Sword Sect, has submitted to me. Now, my forces are even stronger than the fourth and thirteenth princes. I'm only slightly weaker than big brother.
Hmph, let's see if those people still dare to look down on me! "
"Of course, Your Highness, you're the true son of heaven. In the future, the Thunderblaze Dynasty will be yours." The young eunuch flattered.
"You can't speak carelessly. However, you're right. Hahaha."
Lei Haoqing laughed even more impudently, as if the throne was already beckoning to him. He suddenly asked, "Where are we now?"
The young eunuch looked outside and replied, "Your Highness, we'll be at Ping Wan City soon. After that, we'll be at the imperial capital."
"Ping Wan City … Yes, don't rest in the city. Send a few people to buy some supplies. We'll hurry back to the imperial capital."
Lei Haoqing restrained his smile and said seriously, "It's been more than a month. I don't know what they've done. We have to go back as soon as possible.
There's also that damned girl Lian Ye. She's just a wild girl adopted by Heavenly Venerable Hei Yan. She really thinks she's something.
If we can rope in Heavenly Venerable Hei Yan and obtain those countless secrets, the throne will be in the bag! "
Just as Lei Haoqing was fantasizing about the future, a person wearing a golden patterned blood robe was standing on a hill 15 kilometers away.
Anyone with some knowledge could recognize that this person was wearing the golden patterned blood robe assassin from the Blood Clothing Pavilion!
And this person was Leng Shiqi.
After more than a month of seclusion, he was called out by Lian Ye, saying that the time had come.
Leng Shiqi did not want to waste any more time. First, he quietly went to the nearest branch of the Blood-clothed Pavilion. After checking, he found that someone had issued a mission to assassinate the Yin Thunder Guards.
Thus, he informed the Blood Garment Pavilion that they did not need to take this mission too seriously. They just needed to put on an act.
At the same time, he was directly promoted to a golden-striped blood-clothed killer with the cultivation of Gang Spirit Realm. He also got several Heaven-gang Elixirs, which was a big harvest.
After that, he had spurred his horse and arrived at the path that Lei Haoqing had to take to return to the Imperial Capital. Now, Lei Haoqing's group was completely exposed to him.
Being in Gang Spirit Realm, the scope of his Byakugan had expanded to a radius of 30 miles!
There were sixty or seventy people in Lei Haoqing's guards. Most of them were in Spiritual Pulse Realm, a dozen in Spiritual Aperture Realm, and several in Spiritual Gang Realm!
This arrangement was comparable to the high-end combat power of a second-rate sect. This was somewhat inconsistent with the information that Lian Ye had given him.
According to the intelligence, there were only two Gang Spirit Realm masters around Lei Haoqing, but now there were five!
Obviously, the three extra people must be from the Thousand Illusion Sword Sect.
"It seems that Lei Haoqing has succeeded in getting the support of the Thousand Illusion Sword Sect," Leng Shiqi said secretly. When he mentioned the Thousand Illusion Sword Sect, he thought of Ou Ziyu.
He didn't know how Ou Ziyu was doing in that small secret realm. He had said that he would not come out until he reached the Spiritual Aperture Realm. With his talent and unique cultivation environment, he should have reached the Spiritual Aperture Realm after such a long time.
In addition to Ou Ziyu, Leng Shiqi also remembered that he and Delta Aurigae had been chased by the Gang Spirit Realm masters of the Thousand Illusion Sword Sect. At that time, if Wu Xiang hadn't arrived in time, he would have probably died there!
When enemies met, their eyes burned with hatred. However, now was not the time for revenge. His goal was, of course, Lei Haoqing.
Although there were three more Gang Spirit Realm masters in the team, as long as there were no Oneness of Heaven and Men, Leng Shiqi had nothing to fear.
If it was more than a month ago, he wouldn't have dared to say this, but now it was different!
Although it was not a long time, he had condensed several kinds of powerful Gang Spirit and cultivated a lot of high-level spiritual skills. His combat strength had improved a lot.
Now, if he were to fight with Elder Wan of the Sky Crane Sect again, it would not be so difficult.
Leng Shiqi was now very confident in his strength, but he would not be arrogant enough to break into the guards and kill Lei Haoqing. After all, his task was not to kill Lei Haoqing, but to give him a warning and let him know that someone wanted to kill him!
He turned one hand and an ice crystal longbow appeared in his hand. This was the fifth-level spiritual weapon he chose in the Gu God Sect, the Xuan Ice Bow.
He had not used this Xuan Ice Bow since he got it. It was really useless because he didn't have a matching spiritual skill for archery.
He also didn't expect that the Xuan Ice Bow would come in handy at this time. He pulled the bow to a full moon, but there was no bow and arrow in his hand.
Suddenly, bursts of crimson cold air gushed out in front of him and condensed into an ice crystal bow and arrow.
This was not the end. Suddenly, the crimson bow and arrow bloomed with the color of blood. A strong blood aura spread out and completely dyed the bow and arrow scarlet!
This was the blood aura that assassins of the Blood Cloak Pavilion were best at, and it was also the terrifying blood aura!
Leng Shiqi narrowed his eyes and directly locked on to Lei Haoqing, who was 15 kilometers away, through the Byakugan. His mental strength was also running wildly, and an invisible storm faintly appeared behind him. He wanted to kill Lei Haoqing from a distance!
No one could do such a thing from 15 kilometers away, and no one would think of it.
Not to mention the bow and arrow, even a spiritual caster could not use a spiritual skill that could cover 15 kilometers. Moreover, how could you lock on to the enemy's position from 15 kilometers away?
It should be known that the slightest difference could lead to a huge error. As long as you were slightly off track, you would not know how far off track you were.
But Leng Shiqi could totally do it!
First of all, his strength was strong enough. He had a variety of high-level cultivation methods, and he also had the Supreme Cultivation Method of Heavenly Star God. With this alone, he was not much weaker than a master at the late stage of Gang Spirit Realm.
In addition, his physical strength was also very strong, and he had opened up all the spiritual meridians and spiritual cavities in his body. It was not a problem for him to shoot an arrow more than 10 kilometers away.
The key was that he could also use his majestic mental strength to control the bow and arrow, which was enough to shoot an arrow 15 kilometers away!
Leng Shiqi calculated the speed of Lei Haoqing's movement through the Byakugan. After a few breaths, he loosened his fingers, and an arrow like a bloody meteor pierced the night sky and shot 30 kilometers away!
At this moment, Lei Haoqing was still happily fantasizing about the future. Suddenly, the two guards at Gang Spirit Realm on both sides of his palanquin changed their expressions!
