"That would be for the best!"
Chu Yunju sneered, looking at Uncle Zhou.
"This is Hundred Flower Valley's territory. Fighting here would be disadvantageous to the Holy Land!"
Uncle Zhou shook his head. "We need to lure them out before we can make a move!"
Chu Yunju was taken aback and understood Uncle Zhou's meaning. "If that's the case, I'll personally lure them out of Flower City!"
"As a candidate Saint Son of the Profound Light Holy Land, many people recognize you. How can you go?"
Uncle Zhou shook his head. "Let them go instead!"
Several elders nodded slightly, their expressions turning solemn.
Not long after, inside the tavern, Lu Fan and the others were in seclusion. Gui Ying sat on the tavern's rooftop, silently observing the Hundred Flower Pavilion, his eyes filled with excitement.
He was now like a man possessed, completely smitten with the Fairy of Hundred Flowers from the Hundred Flower Pavilion.
However, just then, several figures suddenly appeared on the streets of Flower City. They exuded powerful auras and their gazes fixed on Gui Ying.
"Are you people from the Profound Light Holy Land?"
Gui Ying glanced at them and immediately sneered, "You have quite the nerve to come looking for trouble!"
"The question is, do you dare to come?"
The leading elder smiled. "Our Saint Son has specifically come to invite you!"
"Am I afraid of him?"
Gui Ying shrugged, stood up directly, and spoke indifferently, as if Gui Ying was beneath his notice.
Seeing Gui Ying's attitude, the elders instantly sneered. If Gui Ying dared to go, he would surely meet his demise.
"Lead the way!" Gui Ying said coldly.
"Don't you have two companions? Why not have them come along too? Wouldn't that be more enjoyable?" the leading elder said again.
"Do we need all three of us to deal with that brat? Are you overestimating yourselves?" Gui Ying said coldly. "Hurry up and lead the way, stop wasting my time!"
The elders exchanged glances, and their brows furrowed slightly. They were naturally disappointed that Gui Ying wasn't bringing his companions, but dealing with Gui Ying first was also a good option.
With that thought, the two elders did not hesitate and led Gui Ying out of Flower City.
Gui Ying, however, was unfazed and followed closely behind. He wanted to see what tricks Chu Yunju had up his sleeve, as he had never taken Chu Yunju seriously. Su Dan Novel Network
Not long after, the two elders arrived at a forest not far from Flower City. An ambush had already been set up within the forest, and Chu Yunju and his group had been waiting for a long time.
As Gui Ying stepped in, he scanned his surroundings but detected no sounds. This made him frown slightly. "Playing tricks, aren't you? If you want to deal with me, then come out, let me see if you have the ability!"
"As expected of someone from the Assassin Dynasty, you have quite the courage!"
Chu Yunju walked out. "You knew I was coming for you, yet you still dared to come!"
"Why wouldn't I dare? Am I afraid of you?" Gui Ying said coldly. "You're just a candidate Saint Son, do you think too highly of yourself?"
"Young man, you shouldn't speak so arrogantly."
Just then, Uncle Zhou emerged. The aura emanating from him was exceptionally terrifying, making it difficult to resist.
Gui Ying's brow furrowed. "I didn't expect you to invite someone, no wonder you're so confident!"
"Naturally, otherwise, why would I be so bold!"
Chu Yunju said coldly, "Today, in this forest, you won't be able to leave alive. A formation has been set up here, and none of you can escape!"
"Ridiculous, there's no place I can't leave if I want to!"
Gui Ying said coldly, then glanced at Uncle Zhou again. He could clearly sense that Uncle Zhou was no ordinary person, likely a high-level Saint, someone even he found troublesome.
However, as a Saint-level assassin of the Assassin Dynasty, he would not flinch. His entire demeanor was filled with killing intent.
Meanwhile, Uncle Zhou frowned. "Weren't there three people? Why are there only two?"
"There were indeed three people, but this brat was too arrogant and came alone!"
An elder spoke. "Let's kill him first. As for the other two, we can deal with them later!"
Uncle Zhou nodded slightly. With things having reached this point, he couldn't say much more. Now that Gui Ying had come alone, he certainly wouldn't let Gui Ying go.
"A high-level Saint from the Holy Land, at least an Elder-level one. You certainly know how to put on a show."
Gui Ying said to Chu Yunju, "It's a pity you don't understand my Assassin Dynasty. A mere high-level Saint may not be able to take me down!"
"What, are you the Saint Dragon King?"
Chu Yunju said coldly, "You don't even put the elders of my Profound Light Holy Land in your eyes!"
"You might not know, but assassins from the Assassin Dynasty can kill across realms. Although I'm not a Saint King, I am a generation's Saint Killer. With him alone, he might not be able to keep me here!" Gui Ying smiled faintly.
"Your words are quite bold. Since that's the case, let me experience your prowess!"
Uncle Zhou's expression was cold as he reached out to grab Gui Ying. As a high-level Saint, he naturally had his dignity. Gui Ying's earlier words had touched upon his honor, and he would not let Gui Ying off easily.
Seeing the scene before him, Chu Yunju smiled faintly. With Uncle Zhou about to make a move, he was sure to capture Gui Ying easily. He just needed to wait and see, and didn't need to bother with anything else.
Meanwhile, Gui Ying's eyes also became serious. Although a Saint Killer could fight across realms, the person before him was a high-level Saint. He dared not be too reckless, for any slight carelessness could put him in danger.
"After I deal with you, I'll go after the other two!"
Chu Yunju said coldly, "I will make you realize the consequences of offending me!"
"I fear you lack the ability!"
Gui Ying said coldly, "You dare to provoke the Assassin Dynasty, your life is likely in danger, yet you still dare to bluster here!"
"Stop talking nonsense. How can you escape my grasp today!"
Uncle Zhou's expression was cold as he reached out with one hand towards Gui Ying. Gui Ying did not hesitate, his eyes becoming even sharper. In that instant, he vanished from his original position, appearing extremely eerie.
Chu Yunju and the others immediately frowned. They knew this was an assassination technique, and if they were not careful, their lives would be in danger.
"The 'Return to the West' technique of the Assassin Dynasty is indeed extraordinary!"
Uncle Zhou's expression was icy. "However, before true powerhouses, this assassination technique is useless!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Uncle Zhou's aura instantly intensified. In the blink of an eye, he stepped into the void, as if he already knew Gui Ying's location.
Boom...
With a violent collision, Gui Ying was violently repelled and directly retreated from the void. He had not expected Uncle Zhou to be able to locate him.
