Chapter 5187 Sudden Murder

"Don't worry, Lord Killer God. The Lord is indeed waiting in the palace, and nothing has gone wrong."

"As for why there are no guards stationed outside the palace, I have no idea about this."

"This is something that Your Majesty has ordered, and we dare not ask."

The maid replied in a low voice. Even though Zhang Yifeng asked her repeatedly, she did not show any panic on her face.

While Zhang Yifeng was asking questions and the maid was answering, they were observing whether her expression changed.

However, the maid's expression remained the same, and her words only showed respect for Wushuang Scholar and him.

Seeing the maid's behavior, Zhang Yifeng's vigilance gradually subsided.

If this maid could disguise herself to this extent in front of him, Zhang Yifeng would have admitted defeat today.

What's more, if you don't enter the Wushuang Palace in person, you will not be able to find out what's going on inside.

Taking all these circumstances into consideration, regardless of whether the Wushuang Palace is safe or not, Zhang Yifeng must go in and find out.

"Please forgive me for asking you so many questions. Please lead the way."

Zhang Yifeng's mind moved, and he suppressed the suspicious look in his eyes and spoke to the maid in a deep voice.

"Lord God of Killing, your words are too kind. Please follow me."

The maid bowed her head slightly upon hearing the voice, turned around while speaking respectfully, and led Zhang Yifeng to the main hall of Wushuang Palace.

Zhang Yifeng followed closely behind him and came to the gate of Wushuang Palace.

"Xiao Xi, go down."

As soon as I arrived at the palace gate, a familiar voice came from inside. It came from Wushuang Scholar.

The person being addressed was naturally the maid who led Zhang Yifeng here.

When Xiaoxi heard the voice of her master coming from the hall, she hurriedly lowered her head and responded respectfully.

Then he bowed to Zhang Yifeng again, then turned around and left along the way he came.

"Fellow Daoist Wushuang, is your retreat going well?"

When Zhang Yifeng saw Xiaoxi leaving, he immediately took a step forward and was about to push open the door of the hall.

"and many more!"

However, an anxious voice of Wushuang Scholar was heard from inside the hall, and he stopped Zhang Yifeng abruptly.

"Ok?"

Zhang Yifeng paused, and his hands remained in the motion of pushing open the door of the palace.

"Fellow Daoist Wushuang, why are you so anxious all of a sudden? Didn't you ask me to come here to talk?"

Zhang Yifeng looked puzzled, not understanding why Wushuang Scholar invited him here but was unwilling to meet him.

"God of Killing, I did ask you to come and have a chat, but my current state is not suitable for seeing you."

"I asked you to come here this time just to ask you one thing. Can you cut off all ties with me?"

The unparalleled scholar in the hall suddenly spoke, and just two sentences startled Zhang Yifeng.

"Fellow Daoist Wushuang, what do you mean? Are you being threatened by someone?"

"Could it be that the Emperor's Grandson and the Human Emperor came to look for you?"

When Zhang Yifeng heard that Wushuang Scholar wanted to break off relations with him, he subconsciously thought that he was threatened by someone.

The only people who have a grudge against him and can pose a threat to Wushuang Scholar are undoubtedly the two emperor's grandsons.

Zhang Yifeng didn't expect that the two guys, Emperor's Grandson and Human Emperor, had just made a profit in the Immortal Tomb.

As soon as he left the Immortal Tomb, he came to cause trouble for Wushuang Scholar.

In addition, Zhang Yifeng felt that with the intelligence of the emperor's grandson, it should not be difficult for him to guess that the person who guided him to the dirty place to find the immortal tomb was the unparalleled scholar.

All these speculations combined together made Zhang Yifeng more determined in his thoughts.

Immediately, anger appeared on his face.

"Not at all, I have not been threatened by anyone."

“What’s more, even if the Emperor’s Grandson and the Human Emperor were combined, they wouldn’t be able to threaten even a hair on my head within a hundred miles of Wushuang Palace.”

However, Wushuang Scholar immediately spoke up and denied Zhang Yifeng's guess.

Upon hearing that his guess was denied, Zhang Yifeng couldn't help but look solemn.

His eyes flickered twice, but Zhang Yifeng did not rush to ask further questions. Instead, he thought about the question that Wushuang Scholar had been repeating.

Since he was not threatened by anyone, then Wushuang Scholar was asking this question sincerely.

After a long silence, Zhang Yifeng raised his head, his eyes seemed to be able to penetrate the doorway of the hall in front of him.

"Fellow Daoist Wushuang, may I ask if you are sure you have made this decision sincerely?"

Zhang Yifeng asked in a serious tone.

"Yes."

In the hall, there came the answer from Wushuang scholar without hesitation.

It was obvious that he had already made up his mind and did not bring up the matter suddenly.

"Okay, but I still need Fellow Daoist Wushuang to give me a reason, otherwise I can't easily agree to this."

Zhang Yifeng took a deep breath and a solemn expression suddenly appeared on his face.

"It's very simple. Only in this way can you and I live in peace."

The deep voice of Wushuang Scholar came from the hall, uttering some unclear words.

"That's all?"

Zhang Yifeng raised his head calmly and asked in a serious tone.

"That's the only way."

Wushuang Scholar's indifferent voice also came from the hall, answering directly.

"Hahaha, then I can give Fellow Daoist Wushuang an answer now."

"That is... absolutely impossible!"

"Although I don't know what kind of trouble you have encountered, Brother Wushuang, since I already regard you as my friend, I will not let you bear this alone."

“No matter how big the problem is, there is always a way to solve it.”

Zhang Yifeng laughed loudly, then looked at the palace door in front of him with gleaming eyes and spoke loudly.

After these words were spoken, no response came from the hall for a long time.

"Why bother, you are so stubborn."

Suddenly a sigh was heard from the hall, and then a murderous intent suddenly erupted.

After Zhang Yifeng sensed the murderous intent coming from the hall, his pupils shrank slightly and he reacted instantly.

In the blink of an eye, he dodged to the side and narrowly avoided two paper knives that flew out of the hall.

The two paper knives went straight through the palace gate and shot straight towards Zhang Yifeng's heart where he was originally standing.

If Zhang Yifeng had not noticed it in time and dodged quickly, his heart would have been killed by Wushuang scholar's knife.

"Fellow Daoist Wushuang, what exactly are you going to do?"

"If you are in trouble, why don't you sit down and discuss it with me? Why do you attack with such a killing move?"

Zhang Yifeng stood aside, looking at the two paper knives that were deeply inserted into the ground, a solemn look on his face.

He felt that he had no hatred towards Wushuang Scholar.

On the contrary, he also helped Wushuang Scholar obtain the Void Immortal Gold from the safe zone. The two supported each other during their trip to the safe zone and overcame difficulties together.

Why is it that now that he has just returned from a dirty place, Wushuang Scholar wants to kill him just because of a disagreement?

Zhang Yifeng really couldn't understand what was happening in front of him.

"I have already given you a chance. If you don't want to break off contact with me, then you can only die here!"
