Chapter 1130 The Successor Appears
Although Mu Renjin is dead, the aftereffects of his death have lingered for a long time.

The situation was quite clear: the two assassins who came to their deaths were survivors of the massacre that Zhou You had participated in.

Among them, Qi Fengzhang was an old friend of his from the north, and even knew his background. From the information revealed in their conversation, his origins have probably been leaked.

Although I knew this day would come, I was still somewhat bewildered when it actually arrived.

"You must not let his seditious words shake your resolve."

Da Xingzhang advised, "Whether it's the Qi family or the Mu family, the so-called remnants are impossible to distinguish as true or false; it must be a scheme by the assassin 'Cai'."

Assassins are best at carrying out killings while standing on the side of righteousness; the tyrants of the past were known throughout the world for their numerous acts of cruelty.

This time, they will use the same old tricks again, and his descendants will try to ruin Zhou You's reputation by attacking him based on his personal conduct.

But is this useful for travel?

Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, Zhou You waved his hand and said, "Keep moving forward."

"No matter how many assassins are nearby, this is all the tricks they have left. What do I, Zhou Daqian, have to fear!"

"In this world, right and wrong are inherently difficult to distinguish. So-called revenge is nothing more than the incompetent barking of a defeated dog."

"Whether it's the Qi family or the Mu family, they should have exited the stage of history long ago."

“If your lineage of assassins were to inherit the noble cause of their ancestor to stand up for the people and assassinate tyrants, I, Zhou Daqian, would have to show you some respect. But this time, you have been embroiled in political struggles and lost your stance. You are no longer the detached person who monitors the world.”

"Heh heh, a bunch of professional executioners who take bribes and do things for money. Some are as open and aboveboard as the Undying Killer, while others are so secretive and mysterious!"

At this point, Zhou You's next sentence shocked everyone like a bolt from the blue.

"...If you do this, you will be like a widow who is keeping her chastity at home, opening the door halfway to act as a prostitute, and claiming that you are innocent."

"Pah! How despicable!"

That's a really harsh and vicious insult.

The Grand Star Elder and the Pavilion Master Chang looked at each other, thinking that Zhou Daqian was powerful and eloquent. At least if they were the current successor of the assassin 'Cai', they would definitely not be able to tolerate such an insult.

as predicted……

"Zhou Daqian, you have no manners and have disgraced my family. You shall die!"

The familiar sign returned: the sharpness and coldness of that short weapon condensed into a single point on the tip of a pointer, landing right in the center of his forehead.

In the second wave, Mu Renjin was annihilated before he could even make a move, but this one is different.

His attack was faster, more accurate, and more ferocious than the first assassin's.

Could he be the modern-day assassin 'Judge'?
"How absurd!"
Changge Master held out his hands in front of him, his eyebrows flashing with a dangerous red light, and once again summoned the Hidden Star Impermanence Power within his body.

Space distorted, and the unstoppable force slammed into the third assassin.

Snapped!
The one who got into trouble wasn't the assassin himself, but someone no one could have imagined: Leng Wuhui, who was standing next to Peacock.

A large hole appeared in Leng Wuhui's chest, his eyes filled with astonishment. Who had attacked him?

The assassin sneered as he raised his short weapon, his figure flashing like lightning as he moved to face Zhou You directly, the two separated by half a meter.

Both the traveler and the assassin could clearly see the fine hairs and textures on each other's faces; life and death hung in the balance.

"Is it you?"

Zhou You suddenly spoke up, asking if the other party was truly the modern-day assassin 'Judge'.

The assassin didn't speak, but shouted sharply, "Die!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than another attack came from the side. It was Chaluozha, one of the Five Heavenly Kings of the Shakyamuni Sect, who had been waiting for a long time.

He had already formed a secret hand seal, and his aura had reached its peak, "the Bodhi Mudra."

Fearing that he might not be able to perform well in battle, he abandoned the secret mudra he had just learned and used the advanced secret mudra, the Bodhi Mudra.

In the blink of an eye, the assassin was enveloped by his secret seal, unable to thrust his weapon any further. Chaluozha breathed a sigh of relief. The assassin had quite the reputation, but before the secret seal of our sect, he was still…

However, the effect of the seal lasted only a few breaths before he was freed.

The power of the Bodhi Seal burst like a bubble, and the assassin leaped out, once again thrusting his short weapon toward Zhou You's forehead.

Zhou You wasn't one to sit idly by; with so many people buying him time, how could he not react?
With the sword in his left hand and the spear in his right, they collided with the short weapons simultaneously. The two weapons, one long and one short, struck each other with incredible precision from both sides, and the two forces converged at a single point.

A strange thing happened.

Upon impact, the short weapon shattered instantly, but in a fraction of a second it reassembled and reappeared in the assassin's hand, stabbing at him and even bypassing the longsword and spear.

"See my teleportation technique!"

An object flew out from Zhou You's sleeve, shaped like a long spoon, which was none other than the divine weapon, the Big Dipper, a relic from the Martial Saint.

The moment the Big Dipper appeared, Mu Leizheng, who was watching the battle through the projection of the sacred artifact, had his eyes shining brightly, as bright as the stars in the sky.

Dongfang Daqian noticed her unusual behavior and asked, "You want it?"

Mu Leizheng nodded.

"After Zhou Daqian dies, I will go and fetch it for you."

The Big Dipper's appearance is extraordinary.

Upon contact with the weapon, it was instantly pulled by gravity, its straight trajectory becoming distorted, grazing past Zhou You's vital point between his eyebrows.

A layer of ashen aura appeared on the assassin's face. He squeezed the short weapon with his fingertips and then stretched out his other hand.

Originally using his free second hand to exert force, he drew out the same short weapon from thin air and stabbed it towards Zhou You's back from an unexpected angle.

A short weapon pierced a hand; it turned out that Chaluozha had reached out to block it...

He gripped the short weapon tightly with his five fingers, and the weapon vanished the instant he gripped it. The next moment, it reappeared at his throat, piercing his vitals with lightning speed.

The assassin kicked Chaluozha away and continued rushing towards Zhou You. The arrow was already on the bowstring, and no one could stop him from assassinating Zhou You.

Zhou You glanced at Chaluozha out of the corner of his eye; he was already dead.

An assassin's weapon is like a weapon of causality; a hit means certain death.

He had only suffered a minor scrape, and with the Nine-Patterned Cauldron strengthening his body, the wound was still bleeding.

"Outrageous! We are here, how dare you act so arrogantly?"

Zhu Ruoxuan and his personal guards rushed to the side and attacked the assassins frantically, but the assassins' eyes were full of mockery.

With a snap, Zhu Ruoxuan's bronze halberd was cut in half at the waist. He was hit on the shoulder, and his entire arm was almost broken.

Two powerful warriors were cleaved in two by his single swing, dying instantly upon landing.

The assassin casually swung his blade, shattering the wavy hair of the guard, and continued to focus on stabbing Zhou You.

At this moment……

Zhou You suddenly sighed, "It seems you are the current successor of the assassin 'Judge'. Very good."

“I admit, you do have the means to kill me, but…”

"You think I have no way to kill you, assassin? You've never been assassinated before, have you? I'll give you a taste of your own medicine."

After saying that, Zhou You stepped forward and said, "Tyrants are tyrannical, but do you think assassins are righteous? Insubordination, deviating from the right path, and using assassination to overthrow the emperor are equally treasonous acts."

"You condemn others with lofty moral principles, but when it comes to yourself, you're no different!"

"I was just about to show you what my wrath is like!"
