Chapter 455 - 455 455 A Warning in Death

Chapter 455: Chapter 455: A Warning in Death Chapter 455: Chapter 455: A Warning in Death Commandery Prince Zhou Shangyun was equally aware of this point!

This Dark Night Ace, Mr.

Yin, was himself a powerhouse of the Daoist Master Realm, and with his exceptional skill in raiding, let alone setting off before Mu Liantian, even if Mu Liantian and this man were to start from Lanqu County City at the same time, the one to arrive at Haofeng City first would still be the Dark Night Ace assassin, Mr.

Yin.

Zhou Shangyun and Mu Liantian both knew that rushing to Haofeng City now had a very low chance of saving Jing Yan in time.

However, even if there was just a glimmer of hope, they had to give it a try.

“Liantian, hurry to Haofeng City!

If Jing Yan is still alive, save him at all costs.

This Dark Night has gone too far!” Zhou Shangyun’s breath tensed.

“I understand!” Mu Liantian nodded in response, then vanished in a flash.

At this point, it had been less than thirty minutes since he received the news.

He had come to see Zhou Shangyun as soon as he got the message.

Because of the special relationship between Commandery Prince Zhou Shangyun and Jing Yan, he had to let Zhou Shangyun know about this matter, to prepare the Prince.

After leaving the Prince Manor, Mu Liantian did not stop.

He spurred his primordial energy, his figure flickering repeatedly, disappearing into the sky in the blink of an eye.

Mu Liantian had pushed his primordial energy to its limit, his speed was as fast as lightning.

Yet even with his speed, it was hard to stop the Dark Night Ace assassin, Mr.

Yin, in time.

In Mu Liantian’s heart, he suspected that the Dark Night Ace might have already reached Haofeng City, and perhaps Jing Yan was already dead.

Near the Zhang Family Mansion in Haofeng City.

In the darkness of the night, a faint black figure appeared ghostly outside the Zhang Family Mansion.

“That Jing Yan should be inside the Zhang Family Mansion,” the black figure paused briefly outside the mansion, a cold light shimmering in his deep eyes.

“First, locate his position!”

The figure vanished again, and in the next moment, he had disappeared from the spot.

Even the space around him produced no significant qi fluctuations.

Even if there were Dao Spirit Realm martial artists nearby, they would likely fail to detect any qi fluctuations and thus fail to perceive the existence of the black figure.

This black figure was naturally Mr.

Yin, the leader of Dark Night.

He silently entered the Zhang Family Mansion, and the Zhang Family’s guard team didn’t notice that someone had intruded.

Inside a separate courtyard of the mansion.

This courtyard was the residence of the Zhang Family’s Fifth Elder.

At the moment, the Fifth Elder was sitting cross-legged on the bed, meditating with closed eyes.

In the room, a black figure abruptly appeared, and the Fifth Elder, a martial artist of the Innate Realm, didn’t notice anything.

“This courtyard is quite exquisite; this person must be an important member of the family.

Then, he must know Jing Yan’s whereabouts,” Mr.

Yin’s eyes fixed on the Fifth Elder on the bed as he pondered.

Although Mr.

Yin was powerful, he was not a god and couldn’t possibly know Jing Yan’s location directly.

Hence, he broke into the Fifth Elder’s courtyard to find out Jing Yan’s residence through the elder.

“Boom!”

A terrible qi fluctuation burst forth from Mr.

Yin’s body, fiercely pressing down on the Fifth Elder.

The Fifth Elder’s eyes opened suddenly, his face revealing a look of shock.

“Who are you?” the Fifth Elder stared in utter astonishment at Mr.

Yin, who had appeared in his room.

He had no clue someone was present until Mr.

Yin voluntarily released his qi.

“I’m looking for Jing Yan!

Tell me where he is, and you can live,” Mr.

Yin’s sinister voice reached the Fifth Elder’s ears.

Although the Fifth Elder was extremely shocked, he did not lose his capacity to think.

Upon hearing Mr.

Yin speak, he immediately guessed that this person was of ill intent, likely seeking to deal with Mr.

Jing Yan.

“What do you want with Mr.

Jing Yan?” the Fifth Elder tried to stall for time.

This person could enter his room silently, meaning his strength was definitely far superior to his.

“Stop asking so many questions; just tell me where Jing Yan is, and you can live.

Otherwise, you’ll die!” Mr.

Yin’s cold voice carried no emotional fluctuation.

The Fifth Elder circulated his qi quietly, his gaze fixed on Mr.

Yin, “Mr.

Jing Yan is a guest of the Zhang Family.

If you refuse to disclose your intentions, I cannot tell you where he is.”

“Refuse to speak?

Then die!” Mr.

Yin made a move to advance.

“Enemy attack!

Enemy attack!”

At that moment, the primordial energy that the Fifth Elder had been covertly circulating within his body erupted forth.

A loud roar spread throughout the entire Zhang Family Mansion.

Mr.

Yin’s face changed slightly when he heard the roar.

He hadn’t expected the Zhang Family member before him to be so daring as to issue an alarm right in front of him!

“Die!” A murderous aura swept out from Mr.

Yin.

At the same time, a terrifying black short sword, emitting a chilling coldness, appeared in his hand in an instant.

The sword glinted with a dark light, which suddenly enveloped the Fifth Elder’s body.

As soon as the dark light encased the Fifth Elder, his voice abruptly ceased.

The Fifth Elder’s presence vanished in an instant.

The Fifth Elder, a Late Innate martial artist of the Zhang Family, had no ability to resist in front of a Daoist Master Realm powerhouse.

In fact, he had prepared for his death upon deciding to raise the alarm.

Although he could not determine Mr.

Yin’s cultivation realm, he was certain that Mr.

Yin was far stronger than him.

Mr.

Yin said he could live if he revealed Jing Yan’s whereabouts, but clearly, he intended harm towards Jing Yan.

Jing Yan was the benefactor of the Zhang Family, and the Fifth Elder felt that he could not betray Jing Yan just to save his own life.

Therefore, he used his life to warn his family and Jing Yan.

“Dammit!

A fool eager to die!” Mr.

Yin coldly glanced over the Fifth Elder’s corpse, cursing under his breath.

At this moment, the entire Zhang Family Mansion was in complete turmoil.

The Fifth Elder’s angry warning had made everyone in the mansion aware of the enemy’s intrusion.

Shouting spread throughout the Zhang Family Mansion!

Clan Leader Zhang Yibing and numerous other Innate Realm elders of the Zhang Family immediately rushed out from their residences, swiftly converging toward the Fifth Elder’s courtyard.

A large number of Zhang Family’s members and guards followed, and in just a few breaths, the area outside the Fifth Elder’s courtyard was densely surrounded by hundreds of Zhang Family people.

Mr.

Yin, moving leisurely, walked out from the Fifth Elder’s courtyard.

His indifferent gaze swept over the Zhang Family people closing in.

To him, these people posed no threat.
