Chapter 2100 - 2104: Assassinating Gao Zhanying (Part 1)

Since Jin Lin did not agree to actively attack Gao Zhanying, Qin Tian decided to abandon this idea.

However, having made it to the Demon Clan with difficulty, he didn't want to just leave things half-done and go back.

If the Demon Clan has issues again next time, would he have to come again? He didn't have that much time.

So this time, Qin Tian decided to do things thoroughly, at least to ensure that the Demon Clan wouldn't pose a threat to Demon Cloud City and Demon Spirit City for a short period.

When leaving Feng City, Qin Tian brought with him a portrait of Gao Zhanying. He carefully identified the person, then headed to Demon Stone City.

Since there was no confrontation between the two armies, Qin Tian decided to take a desperate risk and assassinate Gao Zhanying!

Although it's quite difficult, Qin Tian still decided to spend five days to try.

If it proved too challenging within five days, he would abandon it and head directly to the West Capital.

Between Demon Stone City and Nanshui City, Qin Tian gambled that Gao Zhanying would base his headquarters in Demon Stone City, so after disguising himself, he entered the city.

Sure enough, shortly after he entered Demon Stone City, a large troop entered the city that very afternoon. Although no flags were displayed, Qin Tian could identify them at a glance.

Gao Zhanying's residence was set up in the City Lord Mansion in Demon Stone City, with the City Lord giving up his own residence for Gao Zhanying to use.

Qin Tian crouched outside the City Lord Mansion for a day, carefully observing the people coming and going.

Gao Zhanying, morning, noon, and evening, would enter and exit the City Lord Mansion. However, he was always accompanied by two people, a middle-aged man and an elderly white-haired man. These two seemed to be both Gao Zhanying's confidants and his attendants. Judging by their demeanor, their strength should not be weak.

During the entire process, Qin Tian dared not release any Divine Sense to investigate as it would surely be detected.

It's known, according to intelligence from Jin Lin, that Gao Zhanying's cultivation is at the Peak of the Great Immortal Realm, a person like this would easily see through any ordinary person monitoring him.

Moreover, in the Spiritual Domain, Gao Zhanying didn't need bodyguards as there weren't many on the whole Spiritual Domain Continent who could defeat him.

Early the next morning, Qin Tian arrived outside the City Lord Mansion again, and sure enough, Gao Zhanying hurried off to the Northern City camp with his two guards.

It seemed that Gao Zhanying had military meetings every day.

According to the usual assassination rules, one should take at least a few months to ascertain the situation before acting.

But this time, Qin Tian could not wait; he decided to act today.

The distance from the City Lord Mansion to the northern camp was 10 kilometers. Qin Tian wasn't very familiar with the city, but he followed Gao Zhanying and the three heading north. When the three of them passed a secluded place, Qin Tian decided to act there.

"Having followed us for so long, it's time to come out!"

Just when Qin Tian was about to act, unexpectedly, Gao Zhanying and the other two stopped, and Gao Zhanying's cold voice came over, "Someone dares to follow me, ha, quite audacious!"

As Gao Zhanying spoke, he turned around, as did the other two.

Qin Tian had been very careful, but he didn't expect Gao Zhanying to have discovered him so soon.

With Peak Great Immortal Realm strength, it was too difficult to track someone of higher cultivation level discreetly, without detection.

Helpless, Qin Tian had no choice but to reveal himself.

"It's really just one person, General, which group is this bold enough!" The middle-aged attendant beside Gao Zhanying sneered coldly when he saw Qin Tian stand out alone.

"No matter who sent him, kill!"

Gao Zhanying spread his Divine Sense, seeing no one around, and at this moment, Qin Tian had concealed his aura, so Gao Zhanying did not feel his cultivation was high and lost interest in capturing and interrogating him, assuming Qin Tian was just a common spy trying to gain intelligence daringly.

The middle-aged man nodded and struck out a palm directly at Qin Tian!

Whoosh!

This palm infused True Qi from one side of the street and attacked Qin Tian on the other side, directly toppling the buildings along the way!

After the middle-aged man struck, Gao Zhanying immediately turned around and continued heading to the northern camp with the other elder.

Bam!

Suddenly, the middle-aged man who struck flew backward, landing directly in front of Gao Zhanying and the elder, eyes open wide, spitting blood, and was instantly heavily injured!

Swish!

Seeing this, both Gao Zhanying and the white-haired elder stopped in their tracks.

Both furrowed their brows simultaneously, and as they turned around, they felt a strong True Qi rushing toward Gao Zhanying!

"Looking for death!"

Gao Zhanying punched directly, and a mighty punch burst forth!

Boom!

The True Qi of two masters exploded in mid-air, and the surrounding buildings collapsed instantly!

"General, this guy is not weak!"

The white-haired elder sensed the killing intent emitted from Qin Tian and frowned momentarily.

"I know."

Gao Zhanying's punch and Qin Tian's collided and were basically evenly matched.

However, just from this move, Gao Zhanying immediately furrowed his brow!

Originally thinking he was a lost amateur spy, he didn't expect he was actually a deeply hidden master!

"If we can capture this person alive, do it; if not, kill!"

Gao Zhanying instructed the white-haired elder.

The white-haired elder nodded and launched a signal flare!

The purple signal flare shot into the sky, and at this moment, Qin Tian already had the Red Sword in hand, furiously lunging at Gao Zhanying!

The Gale Illusion carried with it red sword glows, rapidly enveloping Gao Zhanying from the sky!

Just from that move earlier, he knew he had already alerted the people in Demon Stone City, so he had to make a quick decision to resolve Gao Zhanying, otherwise, it would be hard to escape!

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Unbeknownst when, Gao Zhanying also had a heavy sword in hand. Sword Qi crisscrossed, meeting Qin Tian's Gale Illusion, the two swords clashed, sparks flew, the Sword Qi carved out trenches in the walls around!

"General, it seems this person is after you; you go ahead, I'll deal with him!"

The white-haired elder saw Qin Tian's intention, and leapt forward, with a long spear in hand, furiously lunging at Qin Tian!

Roar!

In mid-air, Qin Tian's Power of Eight Dragons unleashed without reservation, ferociously enveloping the white-haired elder and Gao Zhanying!

He was already preparing for a Deadly Strike!

"Hmm!?"

Feeling the tremendous pressure brought by the True Qi Dragon from the sky, Gao Zhanying frowned in surprise, "This person's cultivation has reached the Flying Immortal Realm!?"

As he spoke, even he found it hard to believe.

However, when six True Qi Dragons suppressed him, he clearly sensed that the True Qi Power was even stronger than his own!
