In a moment, the thin figure was much closer.
The two figures beside Qi Xu were the first to rush forward.
Being able to rank "first" and "second" in the Tianshu Pavilion is enough to show their strength.
But even if the two of them joined forces, they were unable to subdue the thin man in black. They were only able to knock off the veil covering his head.
A face full of wrinkles appeared before my eyes.
The face was unfamiliar, but Qi Xu had already guessed his identity.
Judging by age...
This man is most likely the leader or instructor of the secret guard that the Emperor's grandfather promised to the Empress Dowager.
Secret guards never appear in public.
Of course he didn't recognize this face.

The old man gritted his teeth, ignoring the sword tip that was stabbing at him, and thrust the weapon in his hand forward with his backhand.

The man in black clothes with a domineering aura in front of him avoided the move.
With a "puff" sound.
It was the sound of the sword tip piercing flesh.
The old man realized it later and looked down, seeing a wet spot on his chest.
When he raised his eyes again, the murderous intent in his eyes was gone.
He just moved the corners of his lips and murmured softly, his tone seemed to be somewhat relieved.
"It is my honor to die in the hands of the prince."
