Shangguan Jianyi's assassination plan had just begun, and naturally, he would not easily admit defeat. He sniffed out the Dragon King's intentions of attacking and immediately retaliated.
His response was direct and cruel. That night, he sent out over thirty first-rate killers and an even larger number of machetemen. These machetemen had been working for the Golden Roc Fort for many years and were familiar with the rules of a killer-- they were not inexperienced.
There was not much novelty in the whole assassination plan. From the looks of it, each day seemed easy. However, starting from the second day and ending at dawn, even the most experienced soldiers had a little fear of the night.
