Goddess Atlas, Starting from the Queen

Chapter 55 Have you thought about how you want to die?
Seeing Zheng Kun getting angry, Zhang Zhiqiang knew that the matter was basically settled.

He continued, "I've already conveyed my message. I believe Master Zheng has already made up his mind about what to do."

"If there's nothing else, I'll go back and report."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Zhiqiang turned around and prepared to leave.

At this time, Zheng Kun suddenly said: "Wait!"

Zhang Zhiqiang turned around and asked, "I wonder if Mr. Zheng has anything else to say?"

Zheng Kun said, "Blood Cloud Tower has had fewer orders recently, and the brothers are a little short of money."

Hearing this, Zhang Zhiqiang immediately understood what Zheng Kun meant and said, "I will report this to the head of the family. Also, Mr. Zheng, don't worry. Once you get the method for making perfume, you can get as much silver as you want."

It is impossible for a killer organization like Xueyunlou to be short of money. If they were short of money, they could just find a small family and wipe out the entire family, which would be enough money for them to spend for a long time. Zhang Zhiqiang understood that Zheng Kun wanted to take this opportunity to make a big profit from the Zhang family.

The Zhang family doesn't care about this kind of thing. As long as Xueyunlou can do the Zhang family's job well, they will give them as much silver as they want.

Zheng Kun smiled and said, "Then I'll trouble you. Tell Patriarch Zhang that Blood Cloud Tower will deliver the perfume production method early tomorrow morning. Also, he might hear about King Xiaoyao's death."

Zhang Zhiqiang said, "Okay, I'll wait for good news from Master Zheng."

After he finished speaking, Zhang Zhiqiang turned around and left the underground secret room directly.

After Zhang Zhiqiang left, Zheng Kun glanced at the people present, and then his eyes fell on a thin man.

Zheng Kun then said, "There are only two second-grade warriors in the Xiaoyao Palace. One has been transferred to the Xiaoyao Palace. Currently, only Li Yunfan is still guarding the Xiaoyao Palace."

"Third brother, this task is left to you."

Upon hearing this, the thin man stood up and said with a smile, "Master, there is only one second-rank official in Xiaoyao Palace. Wouldn't it be a bit too much to ask me, a first-rank official, to go there?"

Zheng Kun said calmly, "Although Li Yunfan is a second-rank official, he is also a capable person. Many second-rank officials in the Blood Cloud Tower have fallen into his hands before."

"Even if you face him, you have to be careful."

"Also, to avoid any accidents, you should bring two second-rank soldiers with you."

Hearing this, Ren Xingze smiled and said, "Master, you think too highly of Xiaoyao Palace."

Zheng Kun said, "We must get rid of King Xiaoyao this time no matter what."

Seeing Zheng Kun's serious expression, Ren Xingze immediately said seriously, "Don't worry, OP, I will definitely bring back King Xiaoyao's head tonight!"

Zheng Kun said, "That's not necessary. King Xiaoyao is dead, and if you bring his head back, it will be a big trouble for the Blood Cloud Tower."

After all, King Xiaoyao was a descendant of an immortal. If he was assassinated, the court would at most pretend to investigate. After all, there were many people inside and outside the court who wanted King Xiaoyao dead.

But if King Xiaoyao's body was separated, it would be a serious incident. Once the people heard about it, they would definitely demand a thorough investigation by the court.

If the imperial court takes this matter seriously, it is very likely that the case will be traced back to Xueyun Tower, which would not be a good thing for Xueyun Tower. Although Zheng Kun hates Xiaoyao Palace very much, he still has some sense of propriety.

Zheng Kun continued, "Okay, go get ready. Finish the mission quickly and come back soon."

"Yes, Boss!" Ren Xingze then left the secret room and summoned a group of assassins from the Blood Cloud Tower and headed straight for the Xiaoyao Palace under the cover of night.

……

Xiaoyao Wangfu.

The moonlight is bright tonight, shining into the room through the window and falling on people. Lu Ming sits upright on the bed, bathing in the moonlight and practicing quietly. He doesn't know at this time that someone has come straight to Xiaoyao Palace.

At the same time, Li Yunfan, wearing armor, was passing by the martial arts training ground with a team of soldiers. He was about to go to the backyard when he suddenly heard a commotion coming from the front yard.

Soon, a soldier with a knife wound on his body came to Li Yunfan, "Commander, it's bad, an assassin has broken in!!!"

Hearing this, Li Yunfan was stunned. In the past, assassins would sneak into Xiaoyao Palace or enter through the back door.

This time the assassin actually broke in through the front door!
This shows that they don’t take Xiaoyao Palace seriously at all!

Li Yunfan immediately said to a soldier beside him, "Go and inform Miss Su immediately. The rest of you follow me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yunfan led the soldiers behind him towards the front yard.

Even if Li Yunfan did not send anyone to notify Su Wanyun, Su Wanyun had noticed the movement in the front yard at this moment. She hurriedly put on soft armor, held a sword, and came to Lu Ming's door to guard it.

At this time, Lu Ming, who was practicing, also opened his eyes. His spiritual sense had long been aware of the movement outside, but he was not paying attention to the assassins attacking from the front. His focus was on a group of people who climbed over the side wall and headed straight for the yard where he was.

It was obvious that the other party used a strategy of luring the tiger away from the mountain and lured Li Yunfan to the front yard.

In a moment, a group of men in black appeared in Lu Ming's yard.

Ren Xingze saw Su Wanyun holding a sword and said with a smile, "Miss Su, the sword is too sharp. Be careful not to hurt yourself. Your hands are more suitable for holding embroidery needles."

As soon as Ren Xingze finished speaking, the two assassins from the Blood Cloud Tower rushed straight towards Su Wanyun. They all thought that Su Wanyun was a weak woman who could not even tie a chicken and could be easily captured.

However, when they just approached Su Wanyun, Su Wanyun swung her sword, and the two killers from the Blood Cloud Tower were unable to dodge and were directly beheaded by Su Wanyun.

Seeing this scene, Ren Xingze's eyes narrowed instantly, "Miss Su is really a hidden talent!"

Ren Xingze didn't intend to waste any more time. He simply gripped the knife in his hand and slashed towards Su Wanyun.

Ren Xingze is a first-grade cultivator after all. Although Su Wanyun can barely withstand Ren Xingze's attack, she has no time to take care of anything else.

At this time, several other killers from the Blood Cloud Tower went straight to Lu Ming's room. Just when they were about to kick open the door of Lu Ming's room, Lu Ming's door opened directly and Lu Ming walked out.

Seeing this scene, Ren Xingze and other assassins from the Blood Cloud Tower were stunned. Su Wanyun quickly shouted, "Lu Ming, run away! This guy is a first-rank cultivator. I'm no match for him!"

After Ren Xingze reacted, all the true energy in his body suddenly burst out. He swung out a knife and directly chopped Su Wanyun away. Su Wanyun spat out a mouthful of blood.

Although she blocked the knife energy with her sword, she still suffered internal injuries.

Ren Xingze frowned. He couldn't believe what he saw. Wasn't it said that King Xiaoyao had been lying in bed for two months and was dying?

How come King Xiaoyao doesn’t look like a dying man at all, and he can even get out of bed and walk around!
Lu Ming glanced at the injured Su Wanyun, then said to Ren Xingze with a smile: "Have you thought about how you want to die?"
