The night market was bustling with people, and the sounds of vendors calling out their wares filled the air. The two children were having a great time. Di Xuanshang followed behind them seemingly casually, but in reality, he was secretly observing the surrounding situation.

Suddenly, Shen Ruoyu pointed excitedly at a mask stall ahead and shouted, "Mommy, I want that mask!"

Just as Shen Yunxi was about to agree, she suddenly felt a strong surge of spiritual energy coming from behind her. She turned around abruptly and saw a dark figure dart out from the crowd, heading straight for Shen Ruoyu!

"Yu Bao, be careful!" Shen Yunxi exclaimed, releasing powerful spiritual energy to protect Shen Ruoyu behind her.

The dark figure moved with incredible speed, arriving in front of Shen Yunxi in the blink of an eye. He held a sharp dagger in his hand and stabbed it fiercely into Shen Yunxi's chest!

At the critical moment, Di Xuanshang suddenly appeared. He grabbed the shadowy figure's wrist and twisted it forcefully. With a "crack" sound, the shadowy figure's wrist broke off!

The shadowy figure screamed, the dagger falling to the ground. Di Xuanshang kicked him away, coldly saying, "Dare to touch my people? You're asking for death!"

The dark figure struggled on the ground for a few moments, then suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and died.

"Dead?" Shen Yunxi was somewhat surprised.

"Hmm." Di Xuanshang nodded lightly. "It seems that someone deliberately sent him to assassinate me, and he was a death squad member who was certain to die."

Just then, several men in black rushed out from the crowd and surrounded Di Xuanshang.

Di Xuanshang's body surged with spiritual power, making him appear like a god of death. The swords and knives in the black-clad man's hands were as fragile as paper in front of him, utterly vulnerable.

He moved with lightning speed, each strike carrying a sharp killing intent. The men in black fell to the ground one after another, their cries of agony filling the air.

"Mommy, Uncle Jun is so amazing!" Shen Ruoyu's eyes sparkled with admiration, and her little face flushed red with excitement.

Shen Yunxi patted his head, a faint smile playing on her lips, but her gaze swept coldly over the surroundings.

Her divine sense spread out like an invisible net, taking in everything around her. She discovered that there were several men in black hiding in the shadows, like venomous snakes, waiting for their chance to strike.

She subtly gave Di Xuanshang a wink.

Di Xuanshang received her signal, his eyes flashed slightly, and he understood.

He deliberately pretended to be weak and unsteady, fighting and retreating, leading the man in black to a secluded alley.

In the dim light of the alley, Di Xuanshang no longer concealed his strength. The pressure of a peak Spirit Emperor was released instantly, like a flash flood, sweeping across the entire alley.

The man in black was suppressed by the powerful spiritual energy, as if he were stuck in a quagmire, unable to move, and a look of terror appeared on his face.

"With such meager skills, you dare to attempt an assassination?" Di Xuanshang sneered, his tone filled with undisguised contempt.

He then swiftly and decisively brought down his knife, killing the man in black before he could even utter a scream.

Di Xuanshang searched the man in black and found a token with a clear "East" character engraved on it.

He and Shen Yunxi exchanged a glance, a hint of coldness flashing in their eyes.

It seems obvious who the mastermind behind this is.

"Ha!" Shen Yunxi sneered, her tone full of disdain and mockery. "They really think highly of us, daring to send someone to assassinate us so openly."

She paused, a cold glint flashing in her eyes, and her tone became sharp: "Since they've given us such a 'generous gift,' how can we not return it?"

She then turned to look at Di Xuanshang, her eyes questioning, "What do you think?"

Di Xuanshang smiled, his eyes filled with murderous intent: "Of course we should give them a good thrashing and let them know that we are not to be trifled with!"

Shen Yunxi nodded in satisfaction: "Then let them pay the price!"
