Chapter 318: Desperate Dog Jumps Over the Wall (Three More Updates, Please Subscribe)
When Lin Rui used the Qianguang Zhan, the Seventh Realm Killer looked at Lin Rui in disbelief.

"puff!"

Lin Rui's knife struck the man at the moment when he had exhausted all his strength, and it pierced directly into his heart. The light, flame and thunder contained in the knife also exploded at this moment, causing a large amount of blood mist to burst out in front and behind the seventh-level killer.

The strike by Lin Rui using the Heavenly Demon Dragon Armor almost shattered the Seventh Realm Killer's internal organs, leaving a huge hole in his chest and abdomen.

The man fled without hesitation.

As early as when he failed to take down Lin Twelve after 38 consecutive breaths, this seventh-level killer knew that it was impossible to succeed today. What's more, he was now injured in the lungs by Lin Twelve and his strength was greatly reduced.

After all, this is in Luojing City, under the feet of gods and the emperor.

Not only are there hundreds of thousands of imperial guards stationed here, but there are also three divine envoys and twelve alternate divine envoys.

If they stay here for even a moment longer, the danger will increase.

Next, this person turned into a bolt of lightning and entered the body of the seventh-level king-level war dragon.

When this seventh-level expert became one with the dragon, the dragon's combat capability instantly increased to its limit. After only three rounds of fighting, it chopped Ji Xueying in half, forcing the Blood Blade Ji to retreat twenty feet away.

Then the war dragon suddenly exerted its strength and ran madly towards the south.

Lin Rui rushed forward relentlessly, slashing at the war dragon with his sword. Ji Xueying followed suit, and the two of them joined forces, trying their best to entangle and obstruct the dragon, and continued to bombard it with plasma ray cannons.

However, this seventh-level killer had no intention of fighting. He blocked the two people's sword flashes all the way, and in turn used their power to speed up his escape. Relying on the huge physique and brute force of the war dragon, he trampled hundreds of houses into pieces, and even shook the civilians he met along the way into the air and scattered them in all directions, forcing Lin Rui and Blood Knife Ji to distract themselves to save people.

The speed of the two of them was already inferior to that of this person, and they could not push forward at full speed in order to save the civilians who were about to fall to their death along the way.

After just a few breaths, the two sides were separated by several hundred meters. Then the Seventh Realm War Dragon suddenly leaped forward and jumped into a three-hundred-meter-wide river in front.

That is the inland river of Luojing, which brings the nearby Yichuan River and Luochuan River into Luojing as the living water for the people in the capital. This river finally flows into the Tianxuan River.

The Seventh Realm War Dragon plunged into the river and disappeared in an instant.

When Lin Rui chased to the surface of the river, he could no longer sense the man's aura.

He called out to Ji Xueying: "Xiaoying, there's no need to chase us. Let's go back."

Lin Rui was not stupid enough to chase him into the water, that would be courting death.

However, when he looked at the rippling water on the river, a meaningful sneer appeared at the corner of his lips.

The knife that pierced his chest just now was not so easy to withstand. The point was not the injury, but what was contained in the knife.

When Lin Rui and Ji Xueying returned to the Imperial Road together, there were already a large number of imperial guards around them, and yamen runners from the nearby Jingzhao Prefecture also flocked to them.

Some of them were checking the scene and searching for civilians; some were chasing towards the nearby Yiluo River.

Lin Rui could give up the pursuit, but these imperial guards and yamen runners had a duty to bring these two lunatics who dared to commit crimes in the imperial city and assassinate high-ranking officials of the court to justice.

Meng Weiyun was floating in the air, talking to a general of the imperial guards who was wearing a second-grade robe.

Her face looked very ugly, and soon she flew over with the general of the imperial guards.

"Twelve, this is Li Wei, the Lieutenant General of the Jinwu Guards. He's in charge of patrolling the southern part of the capital, day and night. He's not only Master's former personal guard, but also a good friend of mine. You'll be dealing with the Imperial Guards frequently in the future. If you need to mobilize them for any case, just look for him."

Lin Rui had already walked out of the dragon armor. Upon hearing this, his face became serious and he bowed to Li Wei, "My younger brother, Lin Twelve, greets General Li!"

This was the master's former personal attendant, and his status was much higher than that of a new disciple like him.

"No problem, brothers, just call me Lao Li or Brother."

Li Wei was in his thirties, tall and strong, with a full face and a broad forehead, giving people a sense of majesty and steadiness.

He smiled at first, then his eyes fixed in a serious tone as he spoke word by word, "Don't worry, Junior Brother Lin. I will do my utmost to apprehend those two assassins and give you an explanation! To dare to attack you on my territory is simply courting death."

Li Wei not only looked shocked and angry, but also had lingering fears.

He could hardly imagine the consequences of Lin Twelve's death on this imperial road.

However, the strength of the boy in front of him was truly amazing. He and his guardian demon could actually withstand a seventh-level expert.

Although it was because he was wearing the Sixth Realm Super Emperor Dragon Armor, it was still very extraordinary.

Other martial artists at the fifth level would not be able to exert this level of combat power even if they wore dragon armor of this level.

Meng Weiyun's eyes were cold as she said, "Brother Wei, don't be careless. This is very strange. These two didn't attack Twelve on Tianxuan River before, but instead attacked and killed Twelve in the capital. It's puzzling."

Meng Weiyun couldn't figure out what was going on behind the scenes?

Although her uncle had already left, the risk of attacking Lin Twelve in the capital was actually several times greater than before. Lin Rui chuckled coldly upon hearing this: "I can guess a little about this matter. It's probably related to my imprisonment of Yuan Chengkai in the Imperial City Prison yesterday."

He was furious. Although he was unharmed today, at least 100 people died at the scene.

Although Lin Rui increasingly cared less about human life, he was still shocked and angry after seeing the scene.

"Yuan Chengkai?" Meng Weiyun thought of the martial arts used by the Seventh Realm assassin just now, and suddenly realized: "Is it his confidante Yue Tianqing?"

Meng Weiyun understood the reason in an instant: "It must be her, this woman deliberately did not use magic to conceal her identity, or maybe she lost her second soul and is temporarily unable to use it.

She attacked you at this time because she was pushed to the limit. Unfortunately, we still don't know who that Eight Realms Magician is."

After Lin Shier took office as the commander of the Anti-Traitor Bureau, he could easily put Yuan Chengkai to death.

Once Lin Twelve receives the 'National Protection Dragon Seal', it will be even more impossible for Yue Tianqing to do anything to him, so this is the last hurdle for Yue Tianqing to assassinate Lin Twelve.

Meng Weiyun then looked at the broken arrows scattered on the imperial road: "Twelve, what's the matter with these arrows?"

"I hired a group of ghostwriters. The leader is called Feng Xueying. She has a group of very strong people under her. They also happened to be going to Beijing to make a living. I temporarily hired this group to protect my safety."

Lin Rui said calmly, "I actually want to recruit some personal guards, but unfortunately I don't have the money and can't recruit any experts, so I can only temporarily hire these Jianghu people to help."

Meng Weiyun was secretly surprised. Are these people also following Lin Twelve north?
She escorted Lin Twelve all the way to the capital, and she didn't even notice the existence of this group of ghostwriters. They did have some skills.

Looking at the arrows shot by these people just now, at least three of them are at the fifth realm emperor level, and the other seven are also at the fifth realm king level. They are very powerful.

She was curious and intended to investigate afterwards, but she didn't show it on her face.

Meng Weiyun smiled casually: "In fact, with Junior Brother's current status and authority, it is very easy for him to recruit one or two Sixth Realm masters."

She glanced sideways at Wang Erqi who was standing solemnly in the distance.

Meng Weiyun didn't really understand why Lin Twelve trusted Wang Erqi so much and kept him as the captain of his personal guards? Was it just because they grew up together?
This kid has talent, and it's pretty good. He has a bright future, but that's just the future.

Meng Weiyun then shook her head, thinking that she had misunderstood.

For Lin Twelve, trust determines everything. Since Wang Twenty-Seven is talented, as long as he is trained, he will be far more reliable than recruiting people from outside.

Meng Weiyun thought that if Wang Erqi could pass the test of the devil and prove that he was not a devil from outside the domain, it would be a good idea to give him a chance of fate.

She knew that her master had captured a sixth-level imperial-level 'Cold Blood Demon' in his early years and had imprisoned it in the 'Ten Thousand Dragons Tower' north of the capital for a hundred years.

It was a humanoid demon. Its humanity was very stable when it was captured, making it an excellent guardian demon embryo.

Unfortunately, none of their senior brothers and sisters had compatible attributes, so it was never used.

The 'Cold Blood Demon' was idle anyway, so it would be a good idea to give it to Wang Erqi. It could greatly enhance his combat power and protect Lin Twelve's safety.

At present, Lin Twelve's position as the commander of the Anti-Traitor Bureau is very important to Master and must not be lost. This determines whether Master's wish to rectify the government can be achieved.

There is also the Dragon Armor - according to court rules, only officials of the fifth rank and above can purchase it from the Ministry of Works, but she and her master have other channels.

If Lin Twelve has money in the future, you can consider letting him buy it himself.

Meng Weiyun immediately put away her thoughts and said, "Junior brother, let's go. Master is still waiting for you and me at the Divine Envoy Courtyard. Brother Wei, I'll trouble you here."

Just as Lin Rui and others followed Meng Weiyun towards the imperial city again, a large number of people gathered around the scene again.

When the battle just now broke out, these people panicked and ran in all directions, but when the battle was over, they gathered again, and even more people gathered on the periphery.

Even those residents whose houses were collapsed by the aftermath of the battle were attracted here, as long as no one in their family had died.

"How amazing! The current commander of the Traitor Assassination Bureau is so powerful!"

"He is very strong. I thought that guy was dead just now. I didn't expect that he could actually withstand a seventh-level master head-on and even injure him."

"That guy is using dragon armor, and it's at least the sixth-level super-emperor dragon armor!"

"That's quite impressive, and his guardian demon can rival a Seventh Realm War Dragon. With this man and demon wearing dragon armor, they're no different from true Seventh Realm masters."

Li Wei rolled his eyes at the sight. "What are you all still standing there for? Get these random people out of the way!"

This is the most annoying thing about the people in the capital. They dare to watch any excitement, which seems to be a bit shameless.

But there is no way. In this world, martial artists are rampant. If two or three high-level martial artists fight each other, it will cause a large number of casualties around them. The people in the capital are used to it and don't care about life and death.

The imperial court imposed heavy taxes and levies, and people could barely survive. Who would be afraid of death?
It's actually relatively good in the capital. With the emperor and the gods' envoys suppressing the situation and heavily garrisoned, there are very few high-level martial artists who dare to act recklessly.

And today's two assassins really don't know how to live or die, and they simply don't take the imperial court seriously!
