Chapter 85 Shadow Guard

More than ten kilometers away from Qingfeng City, there is an unnamed hill. At this time, more than 20 people dressed as ordinary people are resting here. However, these people are rough and tough, and they don't look like ordinary farmers at all.

But these people surrounded a middle-aged man in the middle. The middle-aged man had bright eyebrows and a restrained aura. Even wearing simple linen clothes could not conceal the aristocratic aura of him.

Obviously, these people are not ordinary people, and the middle-aged man is the leader of these people.

At this moment, a person rushed over from the direction of Qingfeng City.

The middle-aged man took the water bag from his subordinate and threw it to the visitor. The visitor raised his head and drank a few sips of water, put down the water bag, and took a few deep breaths.

"Zhao Si, how is the situation?" the middle-aged man asked.

"Chief, the situation is not optimistic." Zhao Si gasped and said with a frightened look: "Qingfeng City first sent only one person to fight, but who knew that person turned out to be a strong master, and the sect coalition suffered a lot. Loss. Later, Feng Qingyun, the Supreme Elder of Qingyun Sect, died in the battle, and then another Supreme Elder of Qingyun Sect named Xiao Yun took action. "

"Xiao Yun?"

Hearing this name, the middle-aged man seemed to feel familiar. Suddenly he remembered something, stood up immediately, and said in surprise: "Are you sure it is really Xiao Yun?"

"Chief, my subordinates are sure that it is Xiao Yun. Everyone in the Qingyun Sect knelt down and called him ancestor." Zhao Si replied with certainty.

"Chief, who is this Xiao Yun?" A subordinate asked curiously when seeing the middle-aged man so excited.

"You joined late, so it's not surprising that you don't know Xiao Yun. Back then, Xiao Yun did a big thing, which triggered a war between Qin and Wei. Back then, the ancestor of the Wei Dynasty personally tried to kill him, but he still Let him escape back to Qingzhou. More than a hundred years have passed, and Xiao Yun's strength must have become even more terrifying. I am afraid that only the royal family can suppress him," the middle-aged man explained.

"Any other news?" the middle-aged man asked next.

"Chief, a few more people came out later. One was the Qingfeng Sect who sent a female grandmaster who was very powerful. The Qingyun Sect invited a strong grandmaster named Nanshan Tongzi."

Hearing the name of Nanshan boy, the middle-aged man was not so excited, "Nanshan boy, they are all masters of the older generation. It is said that this Nanshan boy accidentally got a strange Kung Fu book. This Kung Fu In the early stage, the cultivation speed is extremely fast, but in the later stage, the cultivation speed will slow down, and there is also a side effect, that is, his appearance will always remain young and he will never grow up. I started practicing and now I am like a child.”

"This Nanshan boy was also a prominent figure in Qingzhou back then. He competed with Xiao Yun. The late emperor asked him to join the dynasty as a worshiper several times, but he always refused."

The subordinates all gasped when they heard this. They did not expect that this sect battle would lead to so many strong masters.

They also know that the Great Qin Dynasty is not as simple as it appears, and there are definitely not a few strong masters. For example, their leader is a strong master.

But I never thought that Qingzhou, the poorest place, would have so many masters.

They couldn't even imagine how many powerful masters there would be in the royal capital of the Qin Dynasty.

"By the way, leader, Qingfeng Sect later sent a strong master. This person seems to be more powerful than Xiao Yun and Nanshan Boy."

Even more powerful than Xiao Yun and Nanshan Boy, even the middle-aged man with a stable mind couldn't control himself and asked: "Who is it?"

"It seems to be called Wu Hai. Yes, leader, his name is Wu Hai." Zhao Si tried his best to recall and said with certainty.

"Wu Hai——" When the middle-aged man heard this name, his pupils dilated instantly, "The number one master in Qizhou suddenly disappeared in Qizhou. There was news that he had died. I didn't expect that after so many years, he would He actually appeared in Qingzhou and joined the Qingfeng Sect.”

"Chief, is Wu Hai really that powerful?" a subordinate asked in disbelief.

The middle-aged man took a deep breath of air and said: "It's more than just awesome. There are records in our Shadow Guard files. When he disappeared, he was already at the peak of the Grandmaster level. After so many years, even if he failed to reach the It's extremely scary to take that step. Don't mess with him."

"The pinnacle of Grandmaster——"

Everyone around was stunned.

A grandmaster is definitely a strong person even in the royal capital, and the royal family will treat him with caution, but now a strong master at the peak of the grandmaster level has appeared, which has exceeded their expectations.

"With a presence like Wu Hai, Qingyun Sect has no hope in this battle." The middle-aged man sighed and said.

"Chief, what should we do? The origins of the forces behind Qingfeng Sect are unknown, and they have recruited so many powerful masters. This is definitely a huge hidden danger to the Qin Dynasty."

The middle-aged man looked serious and said: "This war between the sects was apparently led by the Qingyun Sect, but in fact it was promoted by the King from behind. The King originally thought that the Qingyun Sect could uproot the Qingfeng Sect, but who knew Qingfeng Sect can even recruit top masters like Wu Hai."

"Chief, what should we do?" the subordinate asked.

"The Qingfeng Sect is no longer something we can deal with." The middle-aged man shook his head helplessly. The strength shown by the Qingfeng Sect cannot be defeated even if all the Shadow Guards are gathered together.

"..." subordinate.

The Shadow Secret Guard was a secret intelligence organization established when the Qin Dynasty was founded. At first, it secretly monitored all officials, and later gradually monitored the entire Qin Dynasty.

The Shadow Secret Guard is just as its name suggests, acting quickly and decisively, like the shadow of death.

The Shadow Secret Guard is only led by the King of Qin, and who is the leader is rarely known to outsiders except the Shadow Secret Guard.

This middle-aged man is the leader of the Shadow Secret Guard of this generation, named Zhang Yan, who is deeply trusted by the current King of Qin.

Zhang Yan's eyes flashed with wisdom. He pondered for a while and said, "We will send the news here back to the capital. As for how to deal with it, it depends on the king's intention. Don't forget, our mission in Qingzhou this time is to find the princess."

The subordinates breathed a sigh of relief. They were afraid that the leader would get excited and send them to help Qingyun Sect.

Then they would go to die.

Fortunately, the leader was not so impulsive.

"Leader, we followed the Princess's footsteps all the way here. The Princess must have entered Qingfeng City. Now Qingfeng City is deserted. I think the Princess was taken away by the Qingfeng Sect. The Qingfeng Sect is so powerful that it may not be easy for us to take her away." The subordinate said.

"No matter what, we must bring the Princess back this time."

"The king has issued a death order this time. It has reached a point where there is no time to lose."

"If we can't bring the Princess back, our Shadow Secret Guard may not have any reason to exist."

"So, no matter how much you pay, you must bring the Princess back to the capital safely." Zhang Yan said with a very serious face.

"I obey your order." Everyone saluted in unison.

They all knew the consequences of failing to complete the task this time, which might not be as simple as dismissal. So, even if they risked their lives, they had to complete this task.
