Chapter 378 Killer
Chapter 378 Killer
After coming out of the capital, Lu Tingyan didn't dare to enter the space directly in broad daylight. She planned to enter the space at night and return to Lujia Village through the space.
At night, when Lu Tingyan was about to take a rest, she suddenly felt a murderous aura five miles away.
Her heart tightened and she became alert, so she decided to jump up the tree to see who it was.
She leapt lightly onto a branch, hid among the dense leaves, and watched with bated breath.
A quarter of an hour later, more than a dozen black shadows came like ghosts and quickly came to the quiet place where Lu Tingyan had just rested.
They moved swiftly and silently, like ghosts in the night.
One of the killers spoke first: "Strange, why is the man gone? But the horse is still here."
Lu Tingyan jumped down from the tree lightly and said, "Are you looking for me?"
The moonlight shining on her face made her look even more beautiful, but at this moment her eyes revealed a cold murderous intent.
At this time, the leader standing in front of the other assassins took a closer look and saw that it was their target this time - Lu Tingyan. Without the slightest hesitation, he waved his hand and shouted, "Kill!"
In an instant, all the killers were like lit powder kegs, roaring in unison and rushing towards Lu Tingyan.
Suddenly, more than a dozen assassins all attacked Lu Tingyan. However, what they didn't know was that for Lu Tingyan, who was already in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, these people were just a piece of cake.
Lu Tingyan's figure flashed, and she shuttled among the killers like a ghost.
The sword in her hand flashed with a cold light, and several killers fell down instantly.
Her swordsmanship was sharp and her moves were exquisite, and each of her swords accurately hit the killer's vital points.
Seeing how powerful Lu Tingyan was, the killers began to panic.
Lu Tingyan was at ease, her swordsmanship was exquisite, and the killers fell one after another in the flash of sword light.
After a moment, the leader of the killers looked at the corpses all over the ground and his eyes widened in horror.
He never imagined that a thirteen-year-old girl could have such terrifying strength.
Lu Tingyan walked towards the assassin leader step by step and said coldly: "Tell me, who sent you here?"
The assassin leader was so frightened that he trembled all over and stammered, "I...I don't know. I was just following orders."
Lu Tingyan's eyes were stern, and she put the sword in her hand against the killer's throat: "You won't tell me? Then don't even think about going back alive."
The assassin leader felt the chill coming from the sword and was immediately frightened to the point of peeing his pants, shouting, "Ghost! Ghost!"
Lu Tingyan looked at him with disgust and said, "Go away, go back and tell your master not to look for such a dishonest person next time."
The leader of the assassins ran away as if he had been pardoned.
Lu Tingyan looked at his receding back and frowned.
She knew that this assassination was no accident and there must be someone behind it.
But she didn't have time to investigate now. The most urgent thing was to return to Lujia Village as soon as possible.
She mounted her horse and continued on her way to a deserted place. Lu Tingyan and Shanshen entered the space and disappeared from the spot in an instant like a ghost.
In space, she was thinking about who was behind this assassination. Was it the dignitaries she had offended in the capital? Or some other hidden enemy?
Lu Tingyan slightly frowned her willow-like brows and thought secretly in her heart, but soon shook her head and decided not to think about those annoying things for the time being.
After all, the most important thing for her at the moment is to go home and have a good rest.
In a blink of an eye, Lu Tingyan had returned to Lujia Village and stepped into her familiar and warm room.
She dodged lightly and walked out of the space. Then, she quickly walked to the bedside and fell straight onto the bed like a rag doll that had lost its support.
She didn't even have time to take off her shoes. She just closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the night was gradually torn apart by the dawn.
Before they knew it, the eastern sky had turned pale, and faint light filtered into the house through the window, illuminating Lu Tingyan's peacefully sleeping face.
At the same time, in a luxurious mansion far away in the capital, Jun Moyuan was sitting alone in a spacious and bright study.
He held a brush in his hand, seemingly writing something with great concentration, but his thoughts had already drifted far away.
At this moment, Lu Tingyan's pretty face kept appearing in his mind, and he thought to himself: "I wonder if Yan'er has returned home safely?" Thinking of this, he couldn't help but put down the pen in his hand, stood up, slowly walked to the window, staring at the rising sun outside the window, his heart full of worry and concern.
