With his arms crossed, Oni no Ouka stood there, observing Hao Yun with great interest.
The smell of blood is so strong, are they here to kill me?
As the captain of the guard team, Oni no Ouka had experienced countless assassination attempts, but Hao Yun was the first one to be intercepted so openly.
"Who dares to intercept our Imperial Capital Guard!"
A member of the guard drew his longsword and stood in front of Oni no Ouka.
The other five men also drew their weapons.
"Captain, should we send a signal?"
A petite female guard took a whistle out of her pocket and quietly asked Oka for his opinion.
"Hey, didn't you hear me? Get out of the way right now, or you'll be killed!"
Hao Yun, carrying a sickle, remained unmoved. He raised his head and looked at the demon Ouka.
As the captain of the guard, Oni no Ouka exudes a powerful aura, standing there like a mountain.
Ordinary people would tremble with fear under his gaze.
"Night Raid is planning to assassinate you. If you're interested, you can come over and talk to me."
After saying this, Hao Yun turned and walked into a deserted alley.
"Sir, should we chase after him and catch him?"
One of the guards watched the direction Hao Yun had left, his eyes gleaming.
The Night Raid Squad has recently gained considerable fame, even attracting the attention of ministers.
If I could get information about the night raid, or capture a member of the night raid team, I would definitely be given an important position.
He wasn't the only one with this idea; the other five also started having their own thoughts, since no one wanted to be a follower forever.
Ouka the Demon chuckled and pushed aside the person blocking his way.
"You wait here."
"Sir, it's too dangerous for you to go in alone!"
Oni no Ouka turned around, glanced at the person who had spoken with a blank expression, and the person immediately fell silent.
"Wait here!"
Oni no Ouka gave the order in an unquestionable tone, and all six members of the guard team lowered their heads.
Chapter 363 Mission Completed
In the deserted alley, Hao Yun leaned against the wall, carrying a sickle.
To be honest, he wasn't sure if Oni no Ouka would follow.
Mine and Akame, hiding in the shadows, were also filled with worry at this moment.
It's here!
Hao Yun's lips curled up as he pondered how best to kill his opponent.
"Are you from the Night Raid Squad?"
Oni no Ouka stood with his arms crossed, blocking the alley entrance with a nonchalant air.
He's got some skills to be able to become the captain of the guard team.
He had already figured out that Hao Yun was a Teigu user, and he only followed along to find out Hao Yun's identity.
"You guessed right."
Hao Yun lifted his hat, revealing a smiling face.
"Interesting. Since you launched the night raid, why did you tell me about the assassination? Did you intend to kill me here?"
Oni no Ouka showed no intention of resisting; instead, he stared at the weapon in Hao Yun's hand with great interest.
"The Imperial Arms of Annei-do, but you are not an Imperial Arms user of Annei-do. This is getting more and more interesting."
"Really? I think it's quite interesting too."
The two chatted idly in the alley. The guards outside, seeing that their captain hadn't come out for a long time, became somewhat anxious.
"The captain has been inside for so long and hasn't come out yet. Could something have happened to him?"
The petite female team members felt somewhat uneasy.
"Why don't we go take a look?"
The person who spoke glanced at his teammate, then turned to walk towards the alley entrance.
"Don't go over there! You all know the captain's temper. You want to die?"
An older team member stepped forward and stopped the person.
None of them spoke. They all knew the captain's personality; if they angered him, they would definitely suffer the consequences.
The middle-aged man glanced at his teammate, his eyes gradually narrowing.
He actually hoped that Oka would die in the alley; if he died, he would be the most likely person to take over the guard.
Everyone looks out for themselves; even if the captain hadn't died, it wouldn't have been a loss for me.
"Aren't you going to make a move?"
Mine, who was hiding on the roof, was getting a little anxious and tried to pull the trigger several times with the pumpkin cannon in hand.
Akame, on the contrary, remained calm. She thought Hao Yun had done a great job, even more professional than herself, a professional assassin from an assassination unit.
"We've been talking for so long, which has taken up a lot of time. I bet they're getting impatient."
Hao Yun muttered something to himself, then casually walked towards Oni no Ouka, carrying his scythe.
Just moments ago, Oka had his arms crossed over his chest, but now he slowly lowered his arms and placed his hands in the most convenient position to reach his weapon.
"If you join the guard unit, I can make you the deputy captain. What do you think?"
The reason why Ouka and Hao Yun talked for so long was to recruit him.
"If it were three months ago, I think I would have joined without hesitation, but now..."
The two were less than five meters apart when Hao Yun grinned and swung his scythe at Oni no Ouka's neck.
"It's really disappointing."
Ouka the Demon sighed and swung his greatsword to cleave the scythe.
"You're quite a tough character, daring to ambush me all by yourself. Your courage is commendable. However, since you've refused my offer, I have no choice but to ask you to die!"
With a roar, Oni no Ouka wielded his sword with both hands and delivered a heavy slash.
Oni Ouka is incredibly strong; the greatsword in his hands is like a toy.
Boom!
The bricks and stones on the ground were smashed. Seeing Hao Yun avoid the attack, Oni no Ouka quickly swung his sword in pursuit.
Hao Yun, carrying a sickle, dodged casually.
"Are you a mouse? All you do is hide?"
Oni no Ouka's expression turned serious. He realized that what was about to happen seemed to be beyond his control.
Logically speaking, once he took action, his subordinates should have rushed in.
During a lull in the attack, Oni no Ouka glanced at the alley entrance, but no one appeared.
Damn it!
What are those good-for-nothings doing? Were they stopped by someone?
"Hey, are you waiting for your men?"
Hao Yun dodged the attack and appeared behind Oni no Ouka as if by teleportation.
Wow, that's fast!
Oka was startled and quickly turned his body to attack.
"Hao Yun, stop playing around, the guards are coming."
Mine, who was hiding on the roof, saw the guards walking towards the alley and hurriedly got up to warn them.
There are still people!
Oni no Ouka's forehead began to sweat, realizing he had overestimated himself.
He dared to come in because he was confident. This was the guard's territory. As long as he sent a distress signal, a large number of his men would arrive to rescue him within five minutes at most.
In addition, he was accompanied by six skilled bodyguards.
"knew."
Hao Yun responded and swung his sickle to slash.
Ouka the Demon was very confident in his strength, gripping his sword with both hands and preparing to launch a counterattack.
The greatsword and the scythe clashed, the scythe was deflected by the greatsword, and Oni Ouka grinned maliciously.
Even if you are a Teigu user, you will still die here today!
The greatsword slashed towards Hao Yun's head, and the demon Ouka noticed that Hao Yun was smiling. Soon, he felt his perspective constantly changing.
Rolling around.
A huge head rolled on the ground, and only then did Oni no Ouka realize that his head had been chopped off.
"retreat!"
Akame stood up, glanced at the corpse of Oni no Ouka, and retreated according to the planned route.
The three of them ran all the way, climbing over streets, alleys and rooftops, and finally arrived at Brand's rendezvous point.
"Is the mission complete?"
