Chapter 156: The End of the Hero; Part One

In the blink of an eye, several more days passed.

Yu Yangzi walked on the uneven path, his mind filled with countless thoughts.

Assassinations, assassinations!

After that night, there were several assassination attempts every day. Those assassins were well-trained. Not only could he not catch them, but they didn't even leave the slightest trace!

If the Changsheng Hall were still what it used to be, it could still put up a fight. But now, it had lost 80% of its strength and was almost just an empty shell.

Among the six remaining Supreme Clarity Realm experts from the battle on Qingyun Mountain, three were killed in assassinations, and one died due to severe injuries that couldn't be cured!

And among the experts of the Yuqing level, a large number were also lost!

The only ones who suffered relatively little loss were the disciples with low cultivation levels.

What on earth did they want?

Yu Yangzi fell into deep thought.

"Report ——! Hall Master! Elder Li was assassinated by assassins and has already, already ——"

Yu Yangzi flew into a rage and slapped the messenger disciple away with a palm: "Get out of here!!!"

Veins bulged on his forehead, and Yu Yangzi's ferocious face was terrifying. The disciple cursed inwardly a few times and scrambled away.

It was the common sentiment of everyone that the Changsheng Hall was on the verge of collapse.

The cooperation between the Ten - Thousand Poison Sect and the Ghost King Sect was getting closer day by day. What exactly were they plotting?

The answer was obvious.

Although the Hehuan Sect didn't have an obvious cooperation with the other two sects, even a fool knew that when the Changsheng Hall was in trouble, they wouldn't offer a helping hand out of kindness.

The Changsheng Hall was on the brink of destruction.

Yu Yangzi walked step by step, each step as heavy as gold and iron.

The Changsheng Hall was about to perish, and he didn't know where his daughter had gone. His life seemed to have been a failure.

He was in an extremely bad mood!

"Sigh..."

He let out a sigh and raised his head to look at the bright moon in the sky.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Several sounds rang in Yu Yangzi's ears. Without saying a word, Yu Yangzi immediately brought out the Yin - Yang Mirror! In the past few days, he had encountered assassination attempts seven or eight times! He was on guard even when walking.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Each strike was powerful and heavy. When they hit the Yin - Yang Mirror, Yu Yangzi's arm went numb!

These assassins this time were no ordinary ones!

The black and white of Yu Yangzi's Yin - Yang Mirror reversed. With a shout, he quickly retreated using the force of the impact, while sizing up his opponents as he stepped back.

3, 4, 5, 6, 7!

There were seven people in total!

The unease in Yu Yangzi's heart grew stronger and stronger.

In the previous attempts, the largest number of assassins was only four. This time, there were actually seven!

Were they going to make a decisive move to kill him?

But did the Poison God and the others have such confidence that they could eliminate him just with these assassins? Although he had lost an arm, his high-level Supreme Clarity Realm strength was still not to be underestimated!

Yu Yangzi was a bit skeptical.

The seven people attacked Yu Yangzi in a encirclement formation. Their moves were of the same style as those of the previous assassins, all emphasizing the finesse of the techniques. And after careful observation, Yu Yangzi found that the cultivation methods of these people didn't seem to be Daoist magics?

As soon as this thought emerged, Yu Yangzi immediately rejected it.

How could it be that they weren't Daoist magics? What else could they be?

They should be some special Daoist magics.

Yu Yangzi tried his best to keep a distance from them. Their moves were ingenious, and with his missing arm, Yu Yangzi now hardly had the courage to engage in close combat with them. Time and time again, he relied on his battle-tested experience and powerful attacking power to maneuver with the seven of them.

"Clang!"

There was another clash of metal, and Yu Yangzi's figure retreated again. Looking at the Yin - Yang Mirror in his hand that was still trembling, he gave a bitter smile.

The most remarkable aspects of the Yin - Yang Mirror were, first, its defense and rebound capabilities, and second, its ability to transfer attacks.

Defense and rebound were abilities that many magical treasures possessed, with the only difference being the effectiveness. But the ability to transfer attacks was truly remarkable! It was like the "Great Teleportation of the Universe" in another world! Back then, Yu Yangzi had relied on the superiority of this magical treasure to outshine his competitors and finally ascend to the position of the leader of the Changsheng Hall.

However, when facing these seven assassins, Yu Yangzi was powerless to use this move that gave him an advantage in the fight.

The black and white reversed light of the Yin - Yang Mirror was actually a transformation of energy. By adjusting and using these two different types of energy, either by complementing each other, superimposing them, or transferring them, corresponding countermeasures could be taken against the enemy's attacks.

However, if the opponent could seize the moment of energy change and grasp the timing, not to mention breaking through the defense, they could avoid having the attack transferred to their own side.

And the seven people in front of him were exactly like this.

Their moves were so ingenious that there was not the slightest flaw. The power was not extremely strong, but it was precisely controlled. Whenever Yu Yangzi used the strange changes of the Yin - Yang Mirror, they could always avoid it at the right moment!

Yu Yangzi was in a difficult situation!

Not being able to use the opponent's force meant that he had to fight a hard battle against the seven of them head-on!

Yu Yangzi, who had lost an arm, was clearly at a disadvantage!

"Clang ——"

There was another loud noise, and Yu Yangzi retreated several steps again. Their attacks were coordinated seamlessly, and Yu Yangzi could only keep defending passively as he dealt with them one after another. And as time went by, Yu Yangzi was gradually unable to hold on!

Beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.

He had to retreat quickly and rendezvous with his subordinates!

Taking a deep breath, Yu Yangzi activated the Yin - Yang Mirror, preparing to break through. Continuing to delay would only lead to death!

Suddenly, the Yin - Yang Mirror shone brightly!

"Ha!"

With a shout, Yu Yangzi tried to break through to the east. The seven assassins, having cooperated for a long time, exchanged a glance and surrounded him in unison.

Seven swords!

Aiming at seven vital parts!

Yu Yangzi didn't care! The white light of the Yin - Yang Mirror illuminated the night, and spiritual energy surged like a tide, flowing continuously! vaguely,there was a tendency to go out of control.

This was a sign that after being exhausted, he couldn't control it properly.

However, even being severely injured was better than staying here and dying!

Ignoring the several attacks, Yu Yangzi desperately tried to break through to the outside. Strange patterns lit up on the Yin - Yang Mirror. Even Yu Yangzi himself didn't notice them.

These patterns were like invisible ropes that spread out. The movements of the seven assassins suddenly froze, as if they were immobilized by something.

These patterns quickly spread in the air, forming complex patterns. The pupils of the seven people shrank sharply, as if they had seen a ghost!

"Formation?"

A deep voice came from the grass in the distance. Then a figure moved with great speed, rushing over like lightning.

A bright light appeared in the person's hand, flashing around, as if it could cut through everything. The unformed formation instantly dissipated under this sharp attack!

This was the aura of being able to cut through everything!

When the light faded, the person's hand was empty. The light just now seemed to be an illusion. The seven assassins exchanged a glance and fled quickly.

The person who came didn't stop them.

"Uncle Yu Yangzi, the Hehuan Sect's rescue arrived late. Please forgive us."

The person who came greeted him respectfully. Yu Yangzi suddenly shuddered and quickly turned around. The light of the Yin - Yang Mirror didn't fade, and he looked extremely cautious.

He hadn't even noticed this person approaching!

"I'm Lin Xing. I'm sending my master's regards to you, senior."

Lin Xing said respectfully. A warm and righteous aura like fire suddenly emanated from him, making him seem like a very kind person.

Yu Yangzi's expression became even more serious.
