Chapter 210: Triumphant Return
The Blue Hill camp was in complete chaos. Due to Zhanyue’s repeated harassment, first Celestial Master Zhang mysteriously disappeared, then some commanders were assassinated. Now, even the powerful General Tuoba Wujiang had gone to pursue and had not been heard from since. The camp had sent out search parties in all directions, but so far had found nothing.
As night fell, a mysterious black-clad figure snuck into the camp under cover of darkness. However, his eyes were filled with disbelief. The Blue Hill camp was brightly lit, with patrols constantly moving about and traps everywhere, indicating something major had occurred.
The black-clad man had been ordered to assassinate the Blue Hill general, but now found himself in a difficult situation.
“Don’t these people ever sleep or rest?” The black-clad man was very frustrated. Finally finding an opening, he moved to the central command tent. However, he unknowingly triggered some mechanism, and suddenly bells rang out, alerting many people.
“Who’s there? Who is it?” Blue Hill soldiers quickly began searching everywhere. This black-clad man’s lightness skill was not bad, but ultimately not as miraculous as Zhanyue’s earth traversing ability, and he was eventually discovered.
“The thief is here!” Many soldiers instantly surrounded him.
Thousands of troops encircled the black-clad figure, torchlight illuminating the night.
“Fire arrows! Don’t let this little thief escape again!” At the command, arrows rained down like a downpour.
The black-clad man’s eyes turned cold. Tonight’s assassination attempt had likely failed, but he had to teach them a lesson, or he couldn’t complete his mission. He circulated his internal energy, using the mysterious Dragon Catching Hand. All arrows fired at him were grabbed in mid-air by an invisible hand.
