The Indomitable Master of Elixirs

Chapter 772: Assassin (2)

After Ji Fengyan had landed on the ground, her mouth curled slightly.

“Rapid stealth? Interesting, but…”

A gleam flashed in her eyes.

“Let me see who can hide better.”

The moment Ji Fengyan spoke, her two fingers suddenly slid past the evil-vanquishing sword. With a twist of her wrist, the evil-vanquishing sword changed direction and stabbed downwards.

In that instant, Ji Fengyan’s figure completely disappeared from everyone’s sight.

“What’s going on?” Master Yue and the others were slightly taken aback, and involuntarily rubbed their eyes.

Ji Fengyan had vanished. Completely vanished before their eyes.

What was even more shocking was that Ji Fengyan’s aura had also vanished completely.

With that, everyone was dumbstruck.

As an elite assassin, it was easy for Master Wan to hide himself. But… how had Ji Fengyan managed to do it?

A series of questions reverberated in everyone’s hearts.

At the same time, Master Wan, who was advancing at high speed, was also startled.

Ji Fengyan’s aura had vanished completely. He had no way of sensing her presence.

But somehow, Master Wan had a hunch that Ji Fengyan was near him.

As an assassin, remaining calm at all times and a high degree of perceptiveness were important. Although Ji Fengyan’s disappearance was strange, Master Wan did not show any signs of panic; He was waiting. The moment Ji Fengyan’s aura appeared, it would be the moment of her death.

A moment of uncanny silence suddenly descended on the battlefield within the palace.

Ji Fengyan and Master Wan, who were in the middle of a battle, had both disappeared. Everyone held their breaths, trying to find even the hint of a clue. The large palace was completely silent.

“Where has that brat… gone to?” The scene before his eyes shocked the little old man. The split-second appearance of Master Wan had already startled him, but now… even Ji Fengyan had vanished completely.

The burly man shook his head. Ever since he had started following Ji Fengyan, he felt that his worldview had been completely shattered.

The minutes and seconds ticked past. No one dared to make a sound. Only the Eldest Princess, who had her ten fingers cut off, was sobbing as she tried to tolerate the immense pain. Her once incomparably exquisite face was now a hideous mask. Her bloodshot eyes moved across everything within the palace, as if she was looking for a trace of Ji Fengyan.

Unfortunately…

With her ability, she could not discover anything.

Master Wan moved at full speed, but as time passed, bewilderment and agitation grew in his heart.

He could be said to have reached the peak of the art of assassination. In his many decades studying this field, he had seldom met his match.

But…

Ji Fengyan had completely confounded him.

Half a day passed and he still could not find a trace of Ji Fengyan. It was as if she had really vanished from the palace.

For the first time, Master Wan had lost his target. His bewilderment gave him immense pressure.

Where on earth was Ji Fengyan?

Suddenly, a feeling of unease rose in Master Wan’s heart, even as he advanced at top speed. As this uneasy feeling reached its peak, his rapidly moving legs were suddenly nailed to the spot.

In that moment, Master Wan, who had both legs nailed to the spot, was immediately exposed to everyone’s gaze.

Master Wan involuntarily looked at his legs that were unable to move and immediately drew a deep breath!

At some point, both his legs had been covered by the mud beneath his feet. His legs were completely plastered with mud churned up from the ground.
