My brother is Shi Hao

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Three rapid bell sounds echoed over the Wanjian Sect, breaking the tranquility of the night and shattering the peace in the hearts of the disciples.

"What happened?" Shi Hao, who was cultivating, suddenly opened his eyes, a trace of uneasiness flashing in his eyes. Since arriving at the Wanjian Sect, this was the first time he had heard such a rapid alarm bell, and a sense of foreboding rose in his heart.

"Not good! It's an enemy attack!" Shi Yi's face was solemn, with a cold light flashing in his pupils. He pulled Shi Hao up and rushed out the door.

"Big Brother, Second Brother, something bad has happened! The sect... the sect has been attacked!" Senior Brother Li ran over in a panic, saying breathlessly.

"Tell me slowly, what's going on?" Shi Yi asked in a deep voice, with unquestionable majesty in his tone.

"There are assassins...they...they..." Senior Brother Li was still in shock and spoke incoherently.

"Whoosh!"

A black shadow flashed by, accompanied by a slight sound of breaking through the air, and headed straight for the room where Shi Yi and Shi Hao were.

"Be careful!" Shi Yi was prepared and pulled Shi Hao behind him. Golden light flowed in his pupils, and he saw through the true face of the black shadow in an instant.

He was a masked man in night clothes, with a ghostly figure and a gleaming dagger in his hand. He was obviously a well-trained assassin!

"Ghost Assassin!" Shi Yi's heart sank. This was an extremely terrifying killer who came and went without a trace. He was good at assassination and was hard to guard against.

"Brother, I will deal with him!" Shi Hao was not afraid. The power of the Supreme Bone surged in his body, emitting powerful pressure.

"Be careful, this guy is not simple!" Shi Yi warned, and at the same time released the power of his double pupils. Golden light enveloped the entire room, trying to block the ghost assassin's actions.

The ghost assassin obviously didn't expect to be discovered by the two teenagers. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but the dagger in his hand did not stop at all, and went straight to Shi Hao's heart!

With a "bang", Shi Hao swung his fist, and the power of the Supreme Bone burst out, blocking the attack of the dagger.

The ghost assassin was knocked back several steps, and a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes. He did not expect that the young man's power was so strong.

"Kill!" The ghost assassin roared, and his figure disappeared again, turning into a black shadow and launching an even more fierce attack on Shi Hao.

Shi Yi used the insight of his double pupils to constantly remind Shi Hao of the assassin's movements. The two of them cooperated tacitly and launched a thrilling battle with the ghost assassin.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

In the room, fist shadows were crisscrossing, sword energy was crisscrossing, the furniture was completely destroyed, and the room was in a mess.

"Damn it! Why are these two guys so difficult to deal with!" The ghost assassin cursed in his heart. He wanted to end the battle quickly, but he didn't expect to be held back by these two teenagers.

"Brother, we must get rid of him as soon as possible, otherwise more people will be killed!" Shi Hao said anxiously while fighting.

"I know!" Shi Yi nodded, and golden light shone brightly in his pupils. He decided to use all his strength to end the battle as soon as possible!

"boom!"

A powerful force erupted from Shi Yi's body, and the power of his double pupils was released without reservation. The entire room was enveloped in golden light, as if it had turned into a golden ocean...

"Not good!" The ghost assassin's face changed drastically. He felt a fatal threat and was about to withdraw, but found that his body was restrained by an invisible force!

"Now, Hao'er!" Shi Yi shouted...

"The magic of the Divine Phoenix, Sky Meteorite!" Shi Hao seized the opportunity and shouted loudly. A huge golden Divine Phoenix phantom appeared behind him, swooping down towards the trapped ghost assassin with the power to burn the sky and destroy the earth.

A flash of despair flashed in the Ghost Assassin's eyes. He knew he was doomed today. But as a top assassin, he had his own pride and dignity, and he would never surrender!

"Want to kill me? Then let's die together!" The ghost assassin let out a hysterical roar, and suddenly an extremely evil and powerful dark energy surged out of his body, frantically attacking Shi Yi's double pupil seal.

"Oh no! He's going to self-destruct!" Shi Yi's face changed drastically. This dark energy was extremely powerful. Once it exploded, the entire Wanjian Sect would be razed to the ground!

"Brother!" Shi Hao also realized the danger and shouted anxiously.

"Go!" Shi Yi shouted and wanted to push Shi Hao away, but he was unable to move because he was forcibly maintaining the seal.

"I won't leave! Let's die together!" Shi Hao shook his head stubbornly and held Shi Yi's hand tightly. The two brothers stood side by side, facing the impending destruction together.

At this critical moment, a green sword light descended from the sky, carrying with it an unparalleled sharp sword intent, instantly splitting the dark energy released by the Ghost Assassin into two halves!

"Who is it?!" Shi Yi and Shi Hao looked up at the same time, and saw an old man in a green robe, holding an ancient long sword, slowly descending from the air.

"Master!"

"Elder Qingfeng!"

"Master!" Senior Brother Li and Ling'er were both surprised and delighted. They never expected that at this critical moment, it would be Elder Qingfeng who arrived in time.

Elder Qingfeng's gaze swept across the entire room, finally landing on Shi Yi and Shi Hao. A flicker of appreciation flashed in his eyes, and he nodded slightly, saying, "You did a great job and didn't bring shame to the Wanjian Sect."

Shi Yi and Shi Hao quickly saluted and said, "Disciples dare not take credit for it. It was all thanks to Elder Qingfeng's timely rescue."

Elder Qingfeng waved his hand and said, "No need to be polite. This ghost assassin is cunning and his strength should not be underestimated. It is not easy for you to deal with him at such a young age." After that, he turned and looked at the ball of dark energy that was split in two. A trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes. He pinched a seal with one hand and muttered to himself.

As he chanted the spell, a series of cyan runes flew out from his hands and merged into the dark energy. The originally violent energy gradually subsided, eventually transforming into two black beads, which were collected by Elder Qingfeng.

After finishing everything, Elder Qingfeng looked at Shi Yi and Shi Hao again and asked, "Do you know the origin of this ghost assassin?"

Shi Yi and Shi Hao looked at each other and shook their heads. This was also the first time they saw the Ghost Assassin and they didn't know his identity or background.

Elder Qingfeng pondered for a moment and said, "This matter is of great importance. I will personally investigate it thoroughly. You two should go down and rest first."

"Yes, Elder." Shi Yi and Shi Hao saluted again, then turned and left.

Along the way, the surrounding Wanjian Sect disciples looked at them with admiration and talked about them.

"Did you see that? Senior Brothers Shi Yi and Shi Hao were able to fight against the Ghost Shadow Assassin. They are truly amazing!"

"Yes, they are so young, yet they are already so powerful. Given time, they will surely become the backbone of our Wanjian Sect!"

"Senior Brother Shi Yi's double pupils are indeed worthy of their reputation. They can actually seal the dark energy of the Ghost Shadow Assassin. It's incredible!"

"Senior Brother Shi Hao's Divine Phoenix Technique is also extremely powerful. If he hadn't acted in time, the consequences would have been disastrous!"

Listening to the discussions around them, Shi Yi and Shi Hao simply smiled faintly and didn't take it to heart. They knew that although this battle was thrilling, it also made them realize their own shortcomings. Only by practicing harder could they be invincible in the future challenges.

However, that night, a note appeared on the window frame of Shi Yi's room. There was only one sentence on it:

"Want to know who sent the ghost assassin? See you in the back mountain at midnight."

Shi Yi looked at the note, a cold smile appeared on his lips, and he muttered to himself: "It seems that tonight is destined to be a sleepless night..."

Night fell, the moon looming like a crescent. Shi Yi clutched the note in his hand, the words carrying a chilling chill. Who was the mastermind behind the Ghostly Assassin? Why had he attacked the Ten Thousand Swords Sect?

"Brother, what are you thinking about?" Shi Hao sat cross-legged on the bed and asked when he saw Shi Yi frowning.

Shi Yi handed the note to Shi Hao and said in a deep voice, "Left by the Ghost Assassin."

Shi Hao finished reading the note, a flash of anger in his eyes: "This ghost assassin is so audacious! He actually dared to provoke me! Brother, let's go meet him and see what he has in mind!"

Shi Yi shook his head and calmly analyzed the situation, "This is suspicious. The ghost assassin clearly came prepared and is quite powerful. We must not underestimate him. Since he dared to leave a note, it means he has made every possible preparation. If we rush in, we might just fall into his trap."

Shi Hao also knew that what Shi Yi said made sense, so he asked, "Then what should we do?"

Shi Yi's eyes flashed, and he said, "Since he wants to play, then we will play with him. Let's secretly investigate first to find out who this ghost assassin is and who is behind it."

So, the two brothers discussed it and decided to start with the clues left by the Phantom Assassin to find out his identity and background. During the day, they pretended nothing had happened and continued to practice in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. At night, they quietly sneaked into the library and read various ancient books, hoping to find any records about the Phantom Assassin.

However, several days passed without any results. The Phantom Assassin seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, with no record of him.

"Are we heading in the wrong direction?" Shi Hao was a little discouraged.

Shi Yi pondered for a moment and said, "Perhaps, we should change our approach. Since the Ghost Shadow Assassin chose to attack the Wanjian Sect, it means there must be some connection between him and the Wanjian Sect. We might as well start with the Wanjian Sect's recent movements to see if there is anything suspicious."

Shi Hao's eyes lit up and he agreed, "Brother, you're right! Something has indeed happened in the Wanjian Sect recently, such as..."

Shi Hao told Shi Yi about the recent events in the Wanjian Sect, no matter how big or small. Shi Yi listened carefully, constantly analyzing various possibilities in his mind, trying to find a clue.

Suddenly, Shi Yi seemed to have thought of something. He stood up abruptly, his eyes gleaming with brilliance: "I know!"

Shi Hao quickly asked: "Brother, what did you think of?"

Shi Yi did not answer, but pulled Shi Hao and quickly walked out of the library and went straight to the back mountain of Wanjian Sect.

"Brother, why are we going to the back mountain?" Shi Hao asked puzzledly.

Shi Yi didn't say anything, but quickened his pace, his eyes flashing with determination. He knew that the secret of the Ghost Assassin was hidden deep in the back mountain!

The back mountain, a forbidden area of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, was perpetually shrouded in thick fog, brimming with mystery. As Shi Yi and Shi Hao cautiously made their way through it, a sense of eerieness washed over them.

"Brother, look there!" Shi Hao pointed to a cave in front of him and said in a low voice.

Shi Yi looked in the direction of Shi Hao's finger, and saw a dark figure vaguely visible at the entrance of the cave, looking out furtively...
