You don't want your secret to be revealed by others, right?-Chapter 326: First Grade Female Official 71

This was an assassination.

The assassin was a Death Soldier nurtured by the Demon Clan, her strength being among the upper echelons of the Great Demon Kings, a secret strike that would have undoubtedly killed the majority of Great Cultivators.

At the moment of her strike, the woman in purple had already employed the Demon Clan’s life-or-death Forbidden Technique, exerting her utmost power.

"Die!"

She roared furiously, filled with murderous intent.

In an instant, that glimmer of cold light sped towards Lin Yue with terrifying velocity.

Whether it was extracting a Magic Treasure or activating a Protective Treasure, both required precious time, not to mention triggering the Residence Array, which took even longer.

Yet she only needed a mere moment to shatter the head of this Seventeenth Prince!

However—

Lin Yue suddenly turned around, his expression cold and mocking.

In the blink of an eye, a hand shimmering with faint golden light appeared as if through Instant Teleportation, effortlessly blocking that glimmer of cold light.

"Clang!"

A sound resonated like the clash of metal.

That glimmer of cold light trembled and instantly transformed into a silver needle-like spike, rebounding away.

How could this be?

The woman in purple was initially stunned, then her expression hardened and she turned into a purple streak of light charging at Lin Yue.

She had no other choice, escape was impossible, she could only try her best to kill this prince.

"So rare to see such an undercover Death Soldier, the Demon Clan really spared no expense." Meanwhile, Lin Yue’s Divine Thought Transmission resonated in her mind, "You’ve been lurking in my residence for five years, and today you finally made your move."

The woman in purple could no longer ponder, and a single thought occupied her mind: "Kill him! Kill him!"

However—

"Boom!"

She had just charged in front of Lin Yue when she saw a palm strike from above, turning into a flame that annihilated everything, devouring the world in front of her with an all-destroying aura and terrifying might, causing her heart to tremble with despair.

Her entire body displayed black shell-like patterns, and her eyes turned into cold dark purple irises, fully revealing the powerful physical body of the Demon Clan.

"Thud!"

But under this palm, her attack instantly crumbled with no resistance, as she was sent flying like a shooting star, crashing into a distant wall.

The wall lit up with the glow of an Array, unscathed.

Meanwhile, the woman in purple spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and crashed to the ground in complete despair.

Not only was the sneak attack blocked, but she was also utterly unable to withstand a direct confrontation with this prince, who had only cultivated for a few years.

If she couldn’t kill the prince, she would kill someone else!

Her body’s Essence Blood ignited fiercely at that moment, turning her into a terrifyingly fast streak of blood-coloured light that streaked through the sky towards the master’s courtyard.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, a blaze of firelight flashed past, causing the blood light transformed by the woman in purple to plummet toward the ground, heavily crashing onto it.

That firelight also appeared instantaneously in front of her, transforming into a beautiful and tall young woman, who then thrust her spear tip through the woman’s chest, pinning her to the ground.

It was none other than Baili Fengzhi, who had just left.

In the next moment, the formidable and invisible power of the Residence Array arrived, binding her completely.

"Baili Fengzhi?"

The woman in purple completely despaired, losing all will to resist.

"Not bad for your strength."

Lin Yue approached her step by step with a smile, "In Jingzhou, where the Heaven and Earth Law cannot be used, the strength you showed could have won you a few consecutive victories in the Fourth Layer of Tianxia Building. It appears you possess the strength of the Fifth Layer. Tsk ... the Demon Clan really went all out to kill me."

The woman in purple just stared intensely at Lin Yue, sneering miserably, "You’ve hidden your strength well. Five years ago you couldn’t even get past the Third Layer of Tianxia Building, and in just five years, you’ve gained such strength?"

She had believed her chances of assassinating Lin Yue were at least seventy percent, and if she failed, it would be because of other factors.

But who would have expected that Lin Yue himself was stronger than her?

She knew that after reaching the Four Symbols Heaven Barrier, princes and princesses typically accumulated nearly ten years of experience before breaking through the Three Talents Heaven Barrier.

In just five years, most could only make it through the Third Layer of Tianxia Building, and achieving five consecutive victories was considered very good.

Even on the eve of a breakthrough, most princes were about as strong as she was, managing three consecutive victories in the Fourth Layer. There were only two among the princes and princesses who could manage five consecutive victories!

"And Baili Fengzhi..."

The woman in purple then turned her gaze to Baili Fengzhi, her eyes filled with resentment, "You’re so much stronger than me?"

She had just used the Blood Escape Technique, moving at a terrifying speed sufficient to kill this Seventeenth Prince’s children, but unexpectedly, Baili Fengzhi was even faster?

Even a casual spear thrust from her caused severe damage!

The disparity was simply too vast.

"You’re comparing yourself to her?" Lin Yue could not help but sneer.

Two years ago, Baili Fengzhi had already passed the Sixth Layer of Tianxia Building, effortlessly achieving five consecutive victories, and even in the real world where the Heaven and Earth Law could not be used, she could easily win five consecutive victories in the Fifth Layer.

"It seems, Seventeenth Prince, you already knew I was a Demon Clan undercover?" The woman in purple stared intently at Lin Yue.

If he hadn’t been alerted beforehand, how could he have blocked her sneak attack so easily?

Baili Fengzhi had clearly been sent away according to plan but had unexpectedly returned, clearly turning the tables on her.

"I knew five years ago."

Lin Yue snapped his fingers and said, "Don’t worry, I’ll make sure all the Demon Clan moles in the house join you in death."
