"Did the Sect Leader find out?"
The Great Elder looked at the clouds as the veins on his forehead twitched.
In his opinion, only the Sect Leader had the ability to wipe out a thousand Silver Assassins in such a short period of time.
If that was the case, it would be the end for him.
According to the Sect Leader's instructions, he had brought most of the humans over.
However, they were all old, weak, sick, and disabled humans.
The young humans were all detained and sent to the secret base.
In the past, the Sect Leader had never asked about such trivial matters. He didn't even look at them.
The other Elders had received benefits from him and naturally turned a blind eye to it. They all thought that the Great Elder had sold these young humans to other regions.
What should he do now?
The sky was turning dark and the Sect Leader was waiting for him to report on today's mission.
"What do you think?"
After a long while, the Great Elder's voice was heard.
The Bronze and Silver Assassins didn't say anything. They knew that the Great Elder wasn't asking them but the Golden Assassin in the dark.
The Golden Assassin had always been mysterious. Even they didn't know who he was.
"Sect Leader, this is very strange. There are two suspicious points.
Firstly, a thousand Silver Assassins were killed in an instant.
Secondly, the Sect Leader has the ability but not the speed. "
"That's right. It would make sense if they were poisoned. However, the Immortal Heaven Sect's poison doesn't work on us."
"If the Sect Leader wanted to kill us, I'm afraid this place would have been a battlefield."
"That's why this doesn't seem like the Sect Leader's style!"
The Golden Assassins in the dark voiced out their thoughts.
"If it's not the Sect Leader, then who is it?"
After the Great Elder finished speaking, the entire place was silent. Even the Golden Assassins didn't say anything.
Actually, they all knew that there was only one person in the world who could have such terrifying means!
"Do you think it's Zhang Xing?"
Still, no one answered him.
The Great Elder wasn't surprised. This was indeed a difficult question to answer.
He continued to speak.
"If it's really him, then we're in danger. He must be furious when he finds out about our secret.
According to the rumors, all of us here will be his targets.
So... "
"So we have to strike first!"
Several golden assassins continued the Great Elder's unfinished words.
"We definitely cannot let Zhang Xing come to the Immortal Heaven Sect."
"We'll set up an ambush on the way. We'll set up 20 ambush points."
"That's right. Zhang Xing would never think that we would dare to do this. Even if he found one or two ambush points, he would never think that there would be twenty of them!"
"Zhang Xing's strength is too strong. We can't fight him head-on. Once he attacks with his palm or halberd, no one can stop him."
"However, if we use a group of a hundred people and thousands of poisons, it should be effective."
"That's right, we'll use poison. We'll poison them secretly, not assassinate them directly."
The First Elder's eyes lit up when he heard the plan from the Golden Assassins.
This was indeed a feasible method.
"Get ready immediately. According to our calculations, Zhang Xing will reach the headquarters of the Immortal Heaven Sect in seven days. We cannot delay any further and must set off at dawn tonight.
Our speed is faster than Zhang Xing's. Excluding the travel time, we only have three days to set up the ambush. "
At the same time, the secret agent from the Sect Leader's residence reported that the Sect Leader was as usual and didn't have any unusual reactions.
The Great Elder didn't hesitate. He tidied his clothes and flew towards the Sect Leader's residence.
