King of Assassins-Chapter 812 - 600: Extreme Headwind (Part 2)

The silver robes in the formal attire of the Holy Hall are worn to represent identity when paladins attend various occasions.

The silver robes are both beautiful and majestic, similar in style to the Celestial Spirit Sword Robe that Gao Xuan used to love wearing, with only slight differences in detail.

Gao Xuan sighed inwardly. Back then, he enjoyed showing off, with his high looks, which is why he dressed like this. The Holy Hall adopting this outfit as formal wear is indeed somewhat extravagant.

On this middle-aged man, however, the silver robes exude a sacred and peaceful religious aura.

There's no doubt that this middle-aged man is Eighth-Level Paladin Yuan Ping'an.

Following behind Yuan Ping'an are three low-level warriors, each wearing a full set of silver armor.

This kind of silver armor is also of a stylish and beautiful design, with different styles for men and women, emphasizing the beauty of the body's curves.

Among the three low-level warriors is a beautiful girl with charming almond-shaped eyes. She holds the longsword at her waist with a serious expression, yet lacks authority, instead appearing somewhat cute.

Wei Ying eagerly speaks as soon as he arrives: "This is Master Yuan. Where did Celestial Prison and Tiancang go?"

Yuan Ping'an is composed, gently placing a hand on his chest and nodding to Gao Xuan in greeting: "Hello. I am Yuan Ping'an from the Holy Hall."

"Hello, Master Yuan."

Gao Xuan also nods in greeting. He directly opens his electronic wristband and projects a 3D screens display, marking two red dots continuously moving forward.

"These are the two fleeing individuals. However, their identities are uncertain."

Of course, Gao Xuan couldn't speak with certainty. He hadn't seen them with his own eyes, only able to discern the state of the weapon from the sword marks on the corpses.

Yuan Ping'an, experienced, instantly understood Gao Xuan's implication. He nodded and walked over to inspect the sword marks on the exoskeleton armor.

He confidently said, "There's no mistake, it's Zhang Ying's Level 5 Sword Artifact."

Paladins from the Holy Hall are few, making it impossible for them to wander around aimlessly, much less kill people under Mingjing.

The missing sword box contained a Level 5 Sword Artifact that easily sliced through the exoskeleton armor, yet left distinct traces in the sword marks.

Yuan Ping'an, with a keen eye, recognized the sword artifact's level from the marks.

Considering all aspects, it could only be Celestial Prison and Tiancang.

However, the fact that the opponent forcibly unlocked the sword box to wield the sword artifact made Yuan Ping'an uncomfortable.

Yuan Ping'an tells Gao Xuan: "Could you lead the way, please?"

The underworld environment is complex with winding paths. Bringing Gao Xuan along makes it easier to track down the two fugitives. With extensive life experience, Yuan Ping'an refrained from arrogance at this moment, courteously asking Gao Xuan to guide them.

The three young warriors following Yuan Ping'an displayed odd expressions. How could Master Yuan be so polite to a small company employee?

Gao Xuan nodded and said, "It's my duty."

Wei Ying also noticed Yuan Ping'an not wanting to take her along. She was eager to show off in front of Yuan Ping'an, but forcing her performance could worsen things.

She could only instruct Gao Xuan: "Follow the master and do your job well. Obey the master's instructions and do not act on your own accord."

"I understand."

Gao Xuan then took a set of Flying Eagle Light Skeleton Armor from the equipment box of the killed team.

This light exoskeleton armor is very lightweight and highly intelligent, greatly enhancing personal power.

The light exoskeleton armor is easy to equip. With the chest armor placed on the chest, once activated, the exoskeleton armor adjusts the mechanical skeleton based on Gao Xuan's body data, naturally connecting to his body.

After equipping the Flying Eagle Light Skeleton Armor, Gao Xuan selected a single-soldier magnetic suspension skateboard. He said to Yuan Ping'an: "Master, I will lead the way ahead."

Yuan Ping'an nodded: "Lead confidently; there's no danger."

Gao Xuan didn't speak again and simply nodded, activating the magnetic suspension skateboard, which can only glide close to the ground at speeds of up to 200 kilometers per hour with exceptional performance.

Yuan Ping'an followed with three young warriors behind him. Their holy armor was far more powerful. Magnetic suspension was a basic operation; if necessary, the holy armor could fly directly. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

The holy armor is a technological crystallization of cultivation technology, with an extremely complex internal structure – technology that leads the era.

Thus, with the loss of holy armor and the sword box, the Holy Hall must retrieve them no matter the cost.

Gao Xuan led the way, glancing back occasionally. Seeing Yuan Ping'an and others gliding effortlessly and silently behind, as if they were weightless ghost souls.

He couldn't help but be impressed again by how formidable this battle armor was. If he had such armor, traversing the Pegasus would not be difficult.

Unfortunately, such items are too hot to handle. Even if given, he couldn't take them.

The two fleeing individuals hadn't gotten far. They were unaware of the nano-tracker attached to them. The tracker's special electronic signals are imperceptible to humans.

Regarding their instinct for danger, it should have been blocked by Yuan Ping'an. Without such capability, the Holy Hall couldn't dominate the Alliance.

After about thirty minutes of tracking with Yuan Ping'an, Gao Xuan located them.

The two had found a ruined old building, with broken doors and windows. A group of underworld inhabitants lived inside.

The group of people slept on the ground, wrapped in variously ragged clothing, amidst a room filled with a pungent mix of odors.

In this area, such dilapidated buildings were everywhere. These two hid inside, trying to use the surrounding poverty to cover themselves.

Gao Xuan naturally wouldn't enter, standing outside the building and pointing, "Master, they are inside."
