A man in the Qin Dynasty changed the world by collecting entries.

So there's absolutely nothing for him to worry about.

When Nameless left, he also took the danger with him, since he was the target of the Luo Wang mission, and the people of Luo Wang would most likely be drawn away by him.

Just as Bai Yuan was thinking this, a figure suddenly appeared outside the door.

This is a woman wearing a spiderweb-patterned mask, a tight-fitting black combat suit with fish scale patterns, and distinctive, futuristic fishnet stockings on her long legs.

The entirely pink sword in her hand also revealed her identity.

Jing Ni, the top-tier assassin of the Luo Wang organization!

Bai Yuan immediately shielded Lu and A'da behind him, watching her warily.

At this moment, Jing Ni glanced at the peach blossom sword in Bai Yuan's hand, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.

Her superiors ordered her to kill someone, without giving her a name or any other information. However, they did mention that the killer's sword was unusual, just like the man himself.

A beautiful peach wood sword. It must be quite special, right?

Then Jingni pointed her sword at Bai Yuan: "You are my target."

Upon hearing this, Bai Yuan was completely dumbfounded. (⊙ω⊙`)?

who am I? where am I?

Wasn't Jingni's target Wuming? When did she become herself?

Am I a substitute?

Chapter 7: Woman Pursues Man, Kills Him from Behind the Scenes

Without waiting for Bai Yuan to explain, Jing Ni kicked off the ground and quickly attacked him.

"I'm so unlucky!"

Bai Yuan complained, but his hands moved quickly. With a flick of his fingers, the Peach Blossom Sword flew towards Jing Ni.

"Swordsmanship!"

Jing Ni was slightly startled when she saw Bai Yuan's move, and had to slow down her attack. She then became even more certain that this was her target.

Sword control is an extremely rare martial art, quite special!

With a sweep of her sword, Jing Ni easily deflected the peach blossom sword, then charged forward again, this time even faster.

"Back!"

Bai Yuan pointed backward and summoned back the Peach Blossom Sword.

Jing Ni sensed the danger coming from behind, slightly bent her knees, and then leaped up with all her might, dodging the attack of the Peach Blossom Sword once again.

The sword fell back into his hand, and Bai Yuan's expression became somewhat solemn.

Jing Ni's strength is far superior to Mu Xuzi's, so the sword control technique is not very effective.

However, he wasn't only skilled in sword control.

He learned all of Tianzong's martial arts.

At this moment, Jing Ni was about to rush to him. He mobilized his internal energy, and an invisible force instantly spread out, eliminating all the colors around him.

Jing Ni was also affected; her body paused, as if she had sunk into mud, and her movements became much slower.

Before Jingni could react, Bai Yuan seized the moment when she was under control and struck first, aiming to knock the sword out of her hand.

A swordsman's strength is greatly reduced without his sword!

However, Jing Ni's reaction speed still exceeded Bai Yuan's expectations.

Suddenly, the Jingni Sword erupted with a pink whirlwind of sword energy, enveloping Jingni entirely and forming a sword energy shield.

As soon as Bai Yuan's sword pierced through, he felt a tremendous resistance, making it difficult to break through.

"He actually used sword energy to forcibly break through my world's colorless barrier!"

Bai Yuan hadn't expected Jing Ni to be so decisive.

"Excellent, this kind of talent is worth my time!"

Having broken free from the control that caused the world to lose its color, Jingni suddenly praised Bai Yuan.

But he felt even more bitter inside.

He inexplicably replaced Wuming as Jingni's mission target. Isn't he wronged?

"Do you think it's possible that you've mistaken someone for someone else? Your target might have already gone out and is probably fighting your comrades right now!"

Even though he knew it might be pointless to speak, Bai Yuan still wanted to struggle. He didn't believe that the Luo Wang would hunt down an unknown nobody like him, and he didn't have any famous swords.

Jing Ni stared coldly at him, completely ignoring his sophistry. Pink sword energy rose from Jing Ni's sword, and with a light step, she launched another attack on Bai Yuan.

This time, her swordplay was even more powerful, and the sharp sword energy almost enveloped her entire body.

Seeing that the negotiations had failed, Bai Yuan could only sigh inwardly. It seemed that he had no choice but to fight, and at least hold out until Wuming returned.

He touched the Peach Blossom Sword with his fingers, and several golden Dao patterns immediately appeared on the blade. An invisible aura of life emanated from it, and crimson sword energy rose from the sword.

Bai Yuan raised his hand and thrust out a sword. The Peach Blossom Sword and the Jingni Sword collided violently, emitting a roar like a dragon's cry, and the aftershocks of the sword energy swept outwards.

With a loud bang, the house clearly had...

The walls couldn't withstand the pressure; they cracked and broke, and the roof had several large holes in it, threatening to collapse.

Bai Yuan forcefully deflected the Jingni Sword, using the momentum to retreat to Lu and A'da's side. He grabbed one of them with each hand, then lightly touched the ground with his feet and used the Harmony with Light and Dust technique to escape.

He didn't want to be buried like that.

Jingni wanted to give chase, but the falling wooden beams blocked her way.

"What a pity, we finally found a place to take shelter from the rain!"

Bai Yuan led Lu and A Da to a tree to shelter from the rain, complaining incessantly to Jing Ni.

Hopefully, the commotion he's made will attract Wuming's attention and get him back sooner!

Suddenly, Ah Da's face turned pale with fear, and he shouted at Bai Yuan, "Sir, watch out behind you!"

Bai Yuan subconsciously turned his head to the side, and a cold longsword swept past his ear. He could even feel the sharp and cold sword aura on the blade.

Seeing that her sword had missed its mark, Jingni immediately switched to a horizontal sweep.

Bai Yuan then bent down to dodge, raised his hand to block, and used the Peach Blossom Sword to trace a Tai Chi trajectory along the blade of the Jingni Sword, tightly binding it.

Jing Ni's power was easily neutralized by Bai Yuan. She was startled and felt that the sword in her hand seemed to be out of her control.

Bai Yuan firmly grasped the rhythm of the battle for a time.

Under his control, the two pushed each other back and forth a few times. Then, he suddenly flicked the blade, using the force of the blow to send Jingni's sword flying. Peach Blossom Sword then stabbed towards Jingni's chest.

Jing Ni was immediately alarmed. She turned her left hand into a palm and slammed it onto the Peach Blossom Sword, blocking Bai Yuan's attack. Then she did a somersault backward, not only widening the distance between herself and Bai Yuan, but also catching the Jing Ni Sword that was being shaken away in mid-air.

Upon landing, Jingni did not launch another attack rashly, but instead looked at Bai Yuan with a solemn expression.

She could feel that all her power had been returned to her, along with Bai Yuan's own power. The two forces suddenly erupted together, which was why she couldn't hold the sword firmly.

Unexpectedly, this target is skilled in swordsmanship that uses softness to overcome hardness. As expected, the mission given by the superiors is not so easy to complete!

While calming her chaotic internal energy, she stared at Bai Yuan, searching for his weakness.

Chirp~~ Boom!

At that moment, a spiderweb pattern reappeared in the distant sky.

Upon seeing the signal, Jingni was slightly taken aback.

This is a distress signal!

In other words, the other assassins from the Luo Wang organization are in trouble!

Jing Ni's heart sank as she realized she might have killed the wrong target. She took a deep look at Bai Yuan and his sword, memorized his appearance, and then used her lightness skill to leave in the direction of the signal.

"Cough cough! They're finally gone!"

Bai Yuan couldn't help but cough twice, and then he seemed to sway slightly.

Although he seemed to have the upper hand just now, he still lacked combat experience, which led to him being injured by Jing Ni's sword energy.

"Brother Bai Yuan, are you alright?"

Upon seeing this, Lu immediately stepped forward to help him up.

"Don't worry, it's nothing serious."

Bai Yuan shook his head slightly.

Just then, a sharp aura came from afar. The three of them saw something in the distance emit a dazzling light. The light disappeared in an instant, but it gave them goosebumps.

"What was that just now?"

Jingni also saw this scene and sped off towards it.

When she arrived there, she found the place in complete disarray, littered with the corpses of the Luo Wang assassins.

The traces at the scene indicate that these people were likely crushed to death by something at the same time—something very large and thick.

However, Jingni did not see any items at the scene that met these conditions.

Completely baffled, she could only suppress her doubts and go back to contact the intelligence system of the Luo Wang.

The assassination attempt failed!

The situation is now beyond what she can handle alone.

Not long after the flash of light, Wuming returned to Baiyuan's side.

Hearing them recount what had happened here, Wuming felt a sense of lingering fear and self-reproach.

He checked Bai Yuan's injuries and found that he was alright, which relieved him.

"The Net was probably after me, after the sword in my hand. I originally wanted to lure them away and deal with them outside to prevent you from being affected, but I still overlooked it."

"It seems the road to Xiaoshengxianzhuang is not easy to travel!"

Bai Yuan sighed in great distress.
