"So what if she's powerful? We've really gone all out tonight," Elder Chen said smugly. "Look at Feng Yuqin. She dodges more often during the fight, which means her strength isn't that great."
"I agree that her strength isn't extremely powerful, but she has plenty of combat experience," Elder Lin said.
"That's exactly why we must get rid of her," Elder Zhao said. "I have a hunch that if we can't eliminate Feng Yuqin, we might end up in big trouble because of her in the future."
"Elder Zhao, I don't deny that Feng Yuqin hasn't been defeated despite facing so many assassins. But you can't say that we'll fall into her hands in the future. After all, I think with so many assassins here today, Feng Yuqin can't possibly get out unscathed. She must die tonight," Qi Ruyi said with a sinister look.
The others also believed that Feng Yuqin must die tonight.
Although the commotion was kept to a minimum, it still alerted the other members of the Elder Council.
It was just that the council leader was not around tonight.
And some of the guardians in the guild would only appear when the guild was in danger.
This was also the reason why the members of the Elder Council chose to make their move tonight.
Feng Yuqin was surrounded by more than a dozen people tonight. Xiaoying and Xiaojin were both extremely nervous.
Especially Xiaoying. He was ready to step in at any moment.
However, from the current situation, Feng Yuqin didn't need his help.
Although she couldn't directly defeat these people, her strength was on the verge of an upgrade.
"Xiaoying, Master is about to level up," Xiaojin said.
"Now is not a suitable time to level up," Xiaoying said.
"Yes, so Master will suppress her strength for now. But a fight like this tonight will allow Master to have a leap - level upgrade next time," Xiaojin said excitedly.
"Damn it! Why is this woman so hard to deal with?" One of the assassins lost his temper when he couldn't take care of Feng Yuqin.
"Just keep dragging it out with her," another assassin said. "With so many of us, we can wear her down. Once her spiritual energy is exhausted, we can do whatever we want with her."
Hearing this, Feng Yuqin smiled. "Are you sure you want to wear me down?"
"Humph! Feng Yuqin, tonight is your death day," the assassin said.
"Really? Let's see whose death day it is," Feng Yuqin said. As she moved this time, a faint, pleasant fragrance began to emanate from her body.
The smell was quite nice, almost like a natural human scent. So the assassins thought it was just Feng Yuqin's body fragrance.
Since they planned to wear Feng Yuqin down, there was a slight change in their strategy.
The others stepped back, leaving only three people to fight Feng Yuqin.
When the spiritual energy of these three people was almost depleted, another three would step in.
"Boss, Feng Yuqin's spiritual energy is not as strong as before," an assassin said.
"This woman has fought for so long against so many of us. She's already quite amazing," the assassin said.
Just as the other three were taking over, Feng Yuqin took the opportunity to swallow a Spiritual Recovery Pill.
In that instant, Feng Yuqin's spiritual energy was restored.
"What's going on?" Not only were the assassins shocked, but Elders Lin and the others also noticed something was wrong.
"How could Feng Yuqin's spiritual energy be restored in an instant?" Qi Ruyi asked in shock.
A glint of darkness flashed across the eyes of Elders Lin and Zhao.
"Your spiritual energy was almost gone just now. How could it be restored in an instant?" the assassin asked.
"Because I took a Spiritual Recovery Pill," Feng Yuqin said calmly.
"Impossible. We also have Spiritual Recovery Pills, but they can't restore our spiritual energy in an instant like yours," the assassin said in disbelief.
"The quality of my pills is as high as ten - fold, so of course it can restore spiritual energy in an instant," Feng Yuqin said as she kept swinging her sword.
With a wave of her sword, the assassin in front of her couldn't dodge in time and died on the spot.
This was the first assassin tonight who was killed because he was too shocked by Feng Yuqin's Spiritual Recovery Pill and was caught off - guard.
Obviously, these assassins were more powerful than Feng Yuqin, but not only did they fail to kill Feng Yuqin, but one of them was even killed by her.
This was an extremely humiliating thing for them as assassins.
"Feng Yuqin, how dare you kill our man?" an assassin roared angrily.
Feng Yuqin sneered. "You came to kill me. I'm just fighting back. Besides, I've been playing with you for so long. Now it's time to slaughter you."
"Humph! You're talking big," the leading assassin said. "Everyone, attack together and kill her quickly."
Previously, they might have wanted to wear Feng Yuqin down slowly, but now that one of their men had died, they couldn't bear it any longer.
When the assassins rushed forward together, Feng Yuqin swung her sword and said to Xiaoying, "Xiaoying, since these people want to die, let them leave their lives here."
If they were lucky, they might even get some retribution from Elders Lin and the others who were secretly watching.
"Yes, Master..." Xiaoying immediately flew out.
"A demonic pet?" the assassins were shocked. "You actually have a demonic pet?"
"No, it's a spiritual pet," the leading assassin said.
"What? A spiritual pet?" The assassins and Elders Lin and the others all looked incredulous.
Immediately, greed flashed in their eyes.
"Feng Yuqin, if we kill you, this spiritual pet will belong to us. You're too weak to own a spiritual pet," the leading assassin said.
"Let's see if you have the ability," Feng Yuqin said coldly and rushed forward with Xiaoying.
True to his name, once Xiaoying made his move, the assassins had no chance of putting up a good fight.
Seeing this, Elder Lin immediately sent a signal to his men to come over.
After Elders Zhao and the others noticed Elder Lin's actions, they also arranged for their own men to come.
Qi Ruyi even sent over those who were protecting her.
Moreover, all of them sent out urgent signals. So when half of the assassins had been taken care of by Feng Yuqin and Xiaoying, the bodyguards of Elders Lin and the others began to arrive one after another.
"Master, more people are coming," Xiaoying transmitted his thoughts to Feng Yuqin.
"Right. This is exactly the effect I wanted," Feng Yuqin said. "Xiaoying, remember, the people who are coming now are the bodyguards of Elders Lin and the others. Try to get rid of them all without leaving any alive."
"That would be like cutting off their arms," Xiaoying said excitedly.
"Right. After all, I can't just let you come out to deal with these assassins," Feng Yuqin said.
Xiaoying: "..."
He really had to admire his master. She could always achieve multiple effects with one thing.
Since Elders Lin and the others were right outside, when they saw Xiaoying appear and knew that he was a spiritual pet, how could they just sit back and do nothing?
