When the "Yeying" of the assassination troops arrived, the air temperature in the main hall of Yanfeng Palace seemed to drop a little suddenly.

Looking at the white mist lingering in the hall, Lin Chi casually joked: "Can you stop playing with dry ice?"

"Lord, this is a necessary method for the assassin." Ye Ying laughed awkwardly: "I'm just used to it."

Like last time, the assassin was still dressed in black, wrapped in a headscarf that was also black, and the red fangs on his mask seemed to show a mocking expression.

"Young... Lord Lord, what's wrong with you?" Ye Ying bent her eyes, and her voice showed a little treacherous.

Looking at the commander of the assassination troops who were half kneeling in the center of the hall, Lin Chi asked: "What is hidden inside the secret door behind the Assassin Temple? The people I sent last time have not come back yet."

"Ah, you found that door." Ye Ying's pupils suddenly shifted to the right, as if he was hesitating for a moment: "Although I can't bear to say it, the spy you sent... may not be able to come back."

"I'm still very confident in her ability." Lin Chi didn't look worried at all, but just continued to ask: "What's there?"

"I haven't been in, but based on the information we have received, that gate may lead to the world after death." Ye Ying whispered.

"So, are you planning to fool me into dying in the middle of the night?" Lin Chi frowned slightly.

Hearing this, Shen Wenchong immediately drew his sword, and the other guards present also quickly stepped forward. Ye Ying was still half-kneeling without any movement, but just shook her head hard:

"I mean not to let you enter that secret door, but to worship the statue of the Assassin God. Your understanding is wrong..."

Seeing this guy looking like "loyalty and courage", Lin Chi waved his hand and ordered the guard not to take action. He leaned his chin with his right fist and leaned against the throne, asking today's main topic:

"Okay, let's not talk about this. Actually, there is something more important to ask you to come this time."

"As long as you say." Ye Ying lowered her head.

"Since you are also an assassin, I want to know, do you know about the so-called 'brotherhood'?" Lin Chi asked.

Although he was not sure yet, he could still feel that the assassin who tried to assassin himself this time might come from the legendary "Brotherhood".

Unlike the "brotherhood" he established in the city of the government, this time he was probably a real professional. Although he didn't know why they sent some laymen to die, what Lin Chi could be sure of was that things would never end so easily.

After Lin Chi asked a question, Ye Ying was silent for a few seconds and slowly gave the answer:

"Are you talking about the legendary assassin organization? Of course I have learned about it, but it is only for hearing about it."

"Has anyone among your assassins ever joined the Brotherhood?" Lin Chi continued to ask.

"I know everything in the assassination force, and there are no members of the Brotherhood in my force."

Ye Ying once again gave a disappointing reply to Lin Chi, but his next sentence made Lin Chi and the members of the guard present stunned:

"But as far as I know, the Guard's Renyou should come from the 'Brother'."

As soon as Lin Chi said this, before he could speak, a guard standing beside Ye Ying had already made a confused voice:

"You said he is a member of the Assassin Group?"

——As members of the guard, they are naturally very familiar with their "boss". The man who usually looks a bit like a pseudo-woman and often jokes with them has nothing to do with the assassin.

"It's nonsense, Ren You can't be a member of the Brotherhood." Shen Wenchong's face was gloomy: "I've never heard him say..."

"Who would take the initiative to say that he was an assassin in the past?" Ye Ying laughed mockingly: "The old lord knew about this before, and there was a reason why he arranged that man to the guard."

"The skilled assassinator knows how to protect a person." Lin Chi whispered.

"Yes, that's exactly what it means." Ye Ying nodded immediately: "The professional assassin knows very well where to ambush and what kind of assassin should be guarded against. The old lord chose Ren You for this reason."

"Ren You was trained by General Qin." Shen Wenchong was still arguing, but his confidence in his voice was much weaker than before.

"Let him come here immediately." Lin Chi gave the order decisively.

Even if I don’t know if the information provided by Ye Ying is true, I still need to ask now that if Ren You was really a member of the Brotherhood, then the assassination this time might have been his “colleague”.

"Affect the order."

Just as the messenger was about to leave, a sudden noise outside the palace was found. A messenger covered in blood rushed into the main hall. Judging from his physical flexibility, the blood was not his own.

"What's wrong?" Lin Chi asked immediately.

"Report, there are monsters raging in the city, and the guards can't stand it anymore!" The messenger gasped.

"What monster?" Lin Chi clenched his fists.

"It's... a scorpion!" The messenger said breathlessly: "General Qin has led his army to the scene, but ordinary troops alone cannot stop it!"

"Scorpion?" Lin Chi raised his eyebrows.

"Lord, this should be a conspiracy in the desert city." This time it was Ye Ying who spoke: "As far as I know, the god believed in by the Assassins in the desert city is a giant scorpion in the desert, and they call it the 'Desert King'."

"Are you talking about 'Sand King'?" Lin Chi suddenly reacted.

"Yes, this is exactly the evil god they worship. This monster is said to have many descendants, all of whom are lurking in the desert, and once the call of the devout believers is called, they will appear from the underground."

"But there is no desert here." Lin Chi said.

"Maybe it was summoned by some other means." Ye Ying said and stood up: "Lord, please stay here and don't move. I will go out with the assassination troops to find the assassin who summoned the 'Sand King'."

"Yeah, I'll leave it to you."

Before Lin Chi finished speaking, white smoke floated out from the hall again. Ye Ying quickly retreated and her figure disappeared into the smoke.

"I said that I should stop playing with dry ice..."

Lin Chi complained, then said to Shen Wenchong beside him: "Let's go, I plan to go to the scene to see it."

Knowing that he could not convince the young master, Shen Wenchong could only nod and escort the young master from Yanfeng Palace with several other guard members in the main hall.

——It is undoubtedly extremely dangerous to leave the heavily guarded palace now. Lin Chi himself also knows this very well.

However, if he hid in the palace, the assassin would only continue to cause trouble. In his opinion, the longer this kind of thing is, the more dangerous it will be. It is better to solve it as soon as possible.

As for the solution as soon as possible, it is naturally the fastest way to get the snake out of the hole in person.

At this time, Lin Chi had already changed into a dark brown robe, and the guard members also changed into inconspicuous simple commoners. In addition to Shen Wenchong's personal protection, several other guard members were scattered not far away.

"Young Master, hold my hand tightly." Shen Wenchong whispered.

To the ignorant passers-by, the two looked like their father was leading their children to wander on the street. If the assassin did not receive the information immediately, they should not be able to identify their true identities.

Due to the assassination, there were much fewer passers-by on the street than before. Apart from a few men rushing to the east side of Yanfeng City, there were no other people.

"That, please ask..."

Shen Wenchong stopped a middle-aged man who was running away, stared at the other party's shiny bald head, and asked, "Why do you want to escape?"

"Brother, are you stupid?" The middle-aged man walked around him and continued to run in the opposite direction: "There are monsters on the street over there. If you don't want to die, run away quickly!"

Listening to the noisy sounds in the distance, Lin Chi and the guards moved quickly, just in time to meet several retreating Yanfeng Army wounded.

Like the messenger just now, these soldiers were also covered in blood. The soldier who was walking in the front had a big hole directly on his shoulder. His right arm, which had lost control, shook constantly along his body like noodles.

Seeing Lin Chi and others, the wounded were still fulfilling their duties and reminded: "Don't move forward anymore, we are fighting with monsters!"

"I want to go and have a look." Lin Chi said seriously.

"Child, you are still young and shouldn't have looked at these things..." The soldier with a wounded shoulder slowly walked to a house and sat down: "So too, this father, hurry up and leave...Shen Wenchong?"

"A Bin?" Shen Wenchong also recognized the man with blood on his face at this time: "Aren't you retired?"

"After I retired, I found that I could not kill anything except killing people, so I returned to Yanfeng Army." The man known as Abin sighed and focused his eyes on Lin Chi's face:

"Since Shen Wenchong, you will be here, then is this person..."

"That's right, it's me." Lin Chi nodded.

"I don't know why you are here, but please don't get close. We are not opponents of that monster."

Abin's voice became weaker and weaker: "We have done our best, but the monster is too powerful..."

"I know, you have worked very hard and can rest."

Lin Chi said as he turned on the lord mode, summoned a messenger, and issued a new command:

"Notify all soldiers in front of you and evacuate immediately."

Hearing this, the guards and wounded soldiers present fell into silence again:

"Lord, what do you mean?" Abin said tremblingly: "If you don't block that monster, it will destroy the entire city!"

"I have a subordinate who can destroy the monster, but he is more 'special' during the battle and cannot be approached by humans. After the battle, it will be disinfected."

While talking, Lin Chi had already contacted a lich who had run away through his mind and began to communicate quickly with the other party:

"Where are you?"

"Master, I'm doing my... research outside the city."

"Come to the city immediately and deal with the monsters in the city."

"I thought you didn't like my plague." Kelthuzad immediately became interested: "The Scourge is ready and is ready to serve you at any time!"

"If you spread plagues in the city, I will throw your life guard box into the cesspool." Lin Chi threatened: "You should have relatively 'clean' soldiers under your command, right? Send troops that will not spread plagues to destroy the monsters in the city!"

"Well, there is indeed this." Kelthuzad's tone was obviously a little disappointed: "I have seen the situation in the city and immediately sent them over..."

...

"Hold the front and don't let that monster break through!"

On the street battlefield on the west side of the city, Yin Shuang yelled at the top of her lungs.
