For several days, the entire imperial capital was shrouded in the shadow of assassination.
Seven days ago, the third elder of the Situ family, one of the five major families in the imperial capital, was killed by a killer in front of thousands of people present!
Six days ago, the fourth elder of the Nangong family, one of the five major families in the imperial capital, was assassinated at home!
Five days ago, the son of a minister of the imperial capital was found dead in the most famous brothel in the imperial capital!
…
In the past few days, ten people have been assassinated, and a handwriting outlined in blood will be left at the scene: If the King of Hell wants you to die, you will die!
There is no doubt that this assassination incident has caused panic among the nobles throughout the imperial capital.
The original prosperity of the Imperial Capital was hampered by this, but today the Imperial Capital appears to be extremely lively, with noise surging around like a tide.
Her clothes were as white as snow, and her long hair was neatly tied behind her back. After walking leisurely for a while, the square also appeared, but she saw her beautiful figure, left behind and independent! I'm dreaming in the world!"
"Chen Meng!" Ran Qian whispered softly: "My benefactor's name is not bad either!"
In response, Ye Chen smiled softly and looked at the tidal wave of people with impatient eyes. Do you think you have to get up early and queue up tomorrow?
Waving the feather fan, Ye Chen casually grabbed the wine bottle and took a sip. He chuckled and said, "Don't call me a favored benefactor. It was just a simple task at the beginning, so why do you need to care so much!"
Hearing this, a strange color flashed in Ran Qian's eyes. In the past, those aristocratic children would play some hero-saving trick and then pursue themselves crazily. However, the Ye Chen in front of her did meet her by chance. Maybe she really had that kind of look in her eyes.
Things in the sun were just a piece of cake. Regarding this, Ran Qian felt a little sad for some reason. To calm down the complicated emotions in her heart, Ran Qian also looked at the figures around her and said softly: "In that case, I will call you Mr. Chen."
, I wonder what Mr. Chen is here for this time? Is it for? "
Hearing this, Ye Chen nodded slightly, stood on tiptoes, looked at the center of the square, and said with a wry smile: "I originally wanted to take the assessment, but I didn't expect there were so many people, alas!"
Seeing the bitter smile at the corner of Ye Chen's mouth, Ran Qian wiped her lips and smiled, shaking her head slightly and saying: "Master Chen, although you did nothing with a little effort that day, it is a fact that you saved us! Leave today's matter to me!"
"What? What can you do?" His eyes lit up, Ye Chen put away the wine bottle, and his dull eyes fell on Ran Qian.
Feeling Ye Chen's gaze, Ran Qian couldn't help but have a hint of crimson on her face, lowered her head and said: "Yes! Come with me!"
After saying that, Ran Qian did not dare to look directly into Ye Chen's eyes and turned around to walk towards the crowd. In response, Ye Chen waved his feather fan contentedly and followed Ran Qian with light steps.
At this moment, Ye Chen couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Good people will be rewarded these days! Tsk tsk!
Ye Chen followed Ran Qian around the huge square for half a circle, and finally walked directly around the pedestrians towards the back of the square. Before he reached the front, Ye Chen saw the tower that was piercing the sky.
The tower was completely dark, with sword energy vaguely floating around it. The tower was surrounded by some tall rocks, and around the rocks stood several groups of city guards!
Ye Chen saw that the people queuing up at the square were all arranged to enter the rock, and they must also have entered the tower!
Contrary to the square in front, it seems extremely quiet here. The silent silence can always intimidate people's soul. The young people are also lining up in a very respectful manner.
Under the gaze of everyone, two figures came from a distance, and they were Ye Chen and Ran Qian...
