Chapter 1545 Assassin
It must be said that Tong Ye was indeed well-received by Taiyi Academy when he brought the special medicine to Taiyi Academy. Just looking at the mansion that Taiyi Academy rewarded him with, it can be seen that it is definitely ten times the value of the house he had in Titan City-State.

The location is similar, but the architecture and luxury are definitely worthy of a Grand Secretary with a Purple Gold Ribbon.

According to Jiang Yue's calculations, the mansion covers an area of ​​no less than thirty acres. Considering the location, this is definitely an unimaginable super mansion in the surface world.

Although the people of Tongye were not living at home, the servants in the mansion were not disbanded.

For a person of the level of Tongye University Scholar, money was not a problem at all. It was obviously more than enough to support dozens or even hundreds of servants.

He, the Tongye Grand Secretary, was afraid of being assassinated by the Titan Academy, but this servant did not feel any pressure. They were just servants in the mansion and had no grudges against the Titan Academy.

Jiang Yue walked on the stone path in the huge courtyard and teased, "Tongye, it seems that you are really scared. You don't go home to live in such a big mansion, but hide in Taiyi Academy. Look at your servants, they probably don't want you to come back. If you don't come back, they will be half the masters of this mansion."

Tongye said awkwardly: "Sir, don't make fun of me, don't make fun of me."

In fact, he also knew that if he really didn't come back, for these servants, this would be like heaven and they would live a wonderful life.

On the contrary, when I come back, they have to go back to the role of servants, which is a bit disappointing.

However, the majesty of the Grand Secretary with a Purple Gold Ribbon was obviously still intimidating enough. When he returned home, these servants and lackeys naturally kept their tails between their legs and did not dare to act presumptuously.

Tongye's life was not easy, and the servants knew it.

But the life of the Grand Secretary with Purple Gold Ribbon was not easy, but he was still the Grand Secretary with Purple Gold Ribbon, and he was not someone that these servants could despise.

Not to mention a Grand Secretary with a Purple Gold Ribbon, even an ordinary deacon of the Taiyi Academy is a high and mighty existence in front of the servants, unattainable.

It is easier to crush a servant to death than to crush an ant.

Due to the appearance of Jiang Yue, Tongye University Scholar only asked the kitchen to prepare a table of food and wine. As for the others, they were supposed to do what they were supposed to do and perform their duties, and there was no need to serve them specially.

Tongye was still very popular with his servants in this regard. His management was based on a Buddhist approach, and he was quite lenient towards his servants. In the past few years, no servant had ever been bullied or humiliated by him.

Therefore, most of the servants in the mansion are quite convinced of their master Tongye.

However, with a Buddhist management like Tongye, it is inevitable that there will be huge loopholes. Especially since he has not been back for a few days, it is inevitable that someone will take advantage of the situation and break into the mansion.

As soon as Tongye and the others returned to the mansion, an informant in the mansion quickly sent the news out.

Jiang Yue naturally had a full view of all of this. His borrowed vision skills easily covered the entire mansion, and everything in the mansion could not escape his monitoring range.

Tongye was a smart man, and he understood the situation after Jiang Yue's glances. However, Tongye would not be surprised that there were enemy spies lurking in the mansion.

In fact, he had been prepared for this and even secretly paid attention to it. However, as an outsider, it was almost impossible for him to completely prevent this situation. After all, he was not a local tyrant, and he did not have a large number of blood relatives to support him. Without the bond of blood, relying solely on his status as a purple-gold ribbon university scholar, he was still easy to be infiltrated. After all, he did not have the conditions to have every servant dig into the roots of other people's ancestors for eighteen generations.

And even if you dig deeper and find that everyone has a clean background, how can you guarantee that they will not be coerced by external forces, or tempted by money, or be seduced by beauty?

Therefore, before he was sure, Tongye never planned to catch any traitors. If he did, he would definitely not be able to catch the traitors, and it would easily lead to unrest in the family.

At this moment, Tongye knew that the news of his return to the mansion would definitely spread. Maybe the assassin would come to his house soon.

But today, Tongye is very stable. With Jiang Yue, a big boss, around, he has nothing to fear.

Of course, he still had to do some superficial work. He dispersed his personal followers and gathered all the combat servants in the mansion, repeatedly warning them to be on high alert to avoid being taken advantage of by the enemy.

On the surface, his alert level has obviously been raised to a new level.

In an inn less than five kilometers away from the Tongye Mansion, a sound transmission note fell silently into the palm of a man in black.

After reading it, the black-clothed man's deep eyes suddenly flashed with a cold light, and a cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "This old guy finally can't hide anymore? Very good, very good. This day next year will be the anniversary of your death."

The man clapped his hands lightly while talking to himself, and soon, four figures entered his room one after another.

"Everyone, accurate information, Tongye has finally returned to his doghouse. This bastard must have heard some rumors and has been hiding in Taiyi Academy. Tonight may be our only chance."

Immediately, several people's eyes lit up and they began to rub their hands in readiness.

However, a slender woman said calmly, "Master Hongyuan, Tongye has been hiding for so many days, why did he suddenly return to the mansion today? If he is really afraid that we will assassinate him, he should have been hiding in Taiyi Academy."

"Miao Di, do you have any different opinions?" The man in black, Hong Yuan, was obviously the leader of this group.

"Sir, I have always felt that something must be fishy when things are out of the ordinary. Tongye was known for his caution when he was at the Titan Academy. There is no reason for him to return to the mansion for no reason. Could it be that he doesn't know that he has been targeted?"

Hong Yuan nodded: "So, are we going to give up this opportunity tonight just because there are some risks? Haven't we been waiting for this opportunity all these days?"

Miao Di also knew that her group had been waiting for so long just for this kind of opportunity.

But her intuition told her that there was something fishy about this matter and she was afraid that there was probably something wrong.

Another guy with strange markings on his face laughed strangely and said, "Even if it's a little strange, so what? Tongye's current position in Taiyi Academy is not awkward. What else do you think he can do?"

Another guy with dead fish eyes and a face like a puffer fish spoke incoherently as if he had a candy in his throat: "Don't worry, Taiyi Academy wants to kill him more than we do. Tongye, that bastard, is now the public enemy of the inner world. Everyone wants him dead. It's just that Taiyi Academy can't deal with him openly, and others can't deal with him. It will definitely be a great pleasure for us to clean up the mess. I don't believe anyone will stand up for him, or even be the first to do so."

"The one who might be the first to come forward is Grand Secretary Linghua. I heard that Tongye clung to her thighs. But Grand Secretary Linghua has been confined by that old fool Jiuxiu. Haha, this is definitely a godsend opportunity. Otherwise, why would Tongye hide in Taiyi Academy and refuse to come out?"

These guys were obviously getting a little impatient.

No matter what the reason was, Tongye chose to leave Taiyi Academy and secretly return to the mansion tonight, they must take action.

If we don't take action tonight, I'm afraid we won't have another chance for a long time in the future.

Given Tongye's cautiousness, he wouldn't always give them this opportunity.

Miao Di is just one of the members. No matter how much opinion she has, she still has to listen to everyone, especially Lord Hong Yuan.

Hong Yuan said calmly, "Miao Di's worries cannot be said to be completely unfounded. Atan, your Nine-Tailed Clan is best at transforming and escaping, so you have to do the reconnaissance work."

A sturdy young man nodded and said, "Master Hongyuan, leave this to me. You can rest assured that I will make sure whether Tongye's leg hairs are odd or even in number."

As Atan spoke, his body became slightly fainter, like a gust of wind, and suddenly disappeared into the void.

Hong Yuan said to Miao Di, "Are you relieved now? You know what Atan is capable of. Even if Tong Ye finds a Purple Gold Ribbon Grand Secretary as his backer, Atan will be able to detect everything clearly."

Miao Di still felt a little upset, but since things had come to this point, she couldn't be too disappointing.

"Okay, get ready and set off immediately." Lord Hongyuan waved his hand and gave the order.

Once the order is given, Miao Di must obey it no matter how uncomfortable she feels.

"Lord Hongyuan, can you let me go to support Atan and conduct reconnaissance from another angle?" Miao Di volunteered.

"Okay, Miaodi, I'm glad you volunteered. But reconnaissance is reconnaissance, don't alert the enemy."

Miao Di smiled and said, "I will pay attention."

Hong Yuan did not doubt Miao Di's ability. In terms of caution, Miao Di was the most cautious one in the team, even making her look a little timid.

But women's intuition is sometimes really accurate. In many operations, Miao Di's intuition really helped the team.

Of course, for this operation, Lord Hongyuan did not distrust Miao Di's intuition. He just knew that this opportunity tonight could not be missed no matter what.

If we miss tonight, I'm afraid we won't have any chance to deal with Tongye in the future.

In fact, given Tongye's current status and situation, he didn't believe that Taiyi Academy would make a big fuss about him and set up a big plan for him.

To put it bluntly, right now in Taiyi Academy, the number of people who hate Tongye is probably ten times the number of people who like Tongye, or maybe even more.

Even if Tongye wanted to set a trap to lure the snake out of its hole, he had to get Taiyi Academy to send people to cooperate with him!

Scholar Jiuxiu is now overwhelmed with his own internal strife, and he cannot even resolve it. How could he have the time to care about such a trivial matter as the Bronze Coconut?

Grand Secretary Linghua and Grand Secretary Biyao were both under house arrest, so they couldn't split up. Besides, their friendship with Tongye wasn't necessarily to the point of risking their lives.

As for the Golden Ribbon Grand Scholars of Taiyi Academy, which one of them doesn't have important responsibilities? Besides, the situation of Taiyi Academy is complicated now, so what does the matter of the copper coconut matter? It doesn't count.

As for ordinary bachelors, there are many of them, but how many can Tongye mobilize? These assassins have also investigated.

Even people like Bachelor Yun Geng, who has a relatively good relationship with Tongye, actually maintain a friendly but necessary distance from Tongye.

To put it bluntly, Tongye did not make many friends among the senior officials of Taiyi Academy who were willing to confide in him and stick with him through thick and thin.

In the past few years, he has actually promoted one or two scholars, but are these people really willing to work hard for Tongye? Even if they are willing, there is nothing to be afraid of.

Tonight, Tongye’s life is decided by them.

Soon, preliminary news came from Atan. Tongye did bring a few people back to the mansion, but those people were his former followers.

There were two more people, one of whom was a hydraulic engineer who was recruited by Grand Secretary Linghua from the Five Elements Academy. This hydraulic engineer had been missing since the last operation.

This time he must have been recovering from his injuries in the dark and came back secretly. As a newly recruited scholar of Taiyi Academy, he did not report to Jiuxiu University Scholar, but to Tongye University Scholar instead. His identity must be sensitive.

Most likely it was because he was recruited by Grand Secretary Linghua, and he was afraid that he would be regarded as an accomplice of Grand Secretary Linghua by Grand Secretary Jiuxiu, so he asked Grand Secretary Tongye for mercy.

There is no need to be afraid of a person who is so close to being a stray dog!

After Lord Hongyuan obtained accurate intelligence, he became more and more impressed with Atan's intelligence capabilities.

Soon, Miao Di also had further reconnaissance results.

There was indeed no large army ambushed around Tongye's mansion, and there were no five hundred swordsmen or axemen waiting for them.

The guards at Tongye's mansion were much more serious than before. But for the servants at Tongye's mansion, they were effective against ordinary people, but obviously not enough to deal with assassins like them.

Including Tongye's followers, just one person in their assassin team is enough to restrain them.

The only ones who had some ability to resist were Tongye and the hydraulic engineer.

No matter what, these two people are representatives of grassroots rise. Their fighting power is definitely online. I am afraid they can compete with them.

But so what?
There were five of them in total, and they had prepared many killer moves specifically for Tongye. Even if there was one more hydraulic engineer, it was nothing to be afraid of.

As for the stranger beside the Hydraulic Engineer, according to intelligence, he should be the Hydraulic Engineer's follower. It is generally difficult for such a character to intervene in the duel between masters.

Hongyuan analyzed it and determined that the advantage was mine.

Even Miao Di's suspicions were dispelled after she sent out a large number of Sky Devouring Beasts for reconnaissance. Of course, she still felt a little uneasy in her heart, but she didn't know if it was an illusion.

Logically speaking, after such three-dimensional reconnaissance, there shouldn't be too many problems.

The arrow is on the string and must be fired.

Miao Di put these thoughts aside and, under the leadership of Lord Hong Yuan, with Atan as the insider, they successfully sneaked into Tongye's mansion.
