In the blink of an eye, he alone killed more than half of the many people in the Qi Prince's mansion!
"Well done! Lord Zu is amazing!" Liu Xian's weak cheers came from not far away.
At this moment, he had three arrows stuck in his back, half a knife was deeply embedded in his shoulder, and there was a long gash in his stomach from which his colorful intestines had spilled out. He held them up with one hand so that they didn't fall completely to the ground.
Clearly, he was now at the end of his rope.
His cultivation level was not high to begin with, and even after burning his essence blood, it only temporarily rose to the peak of the sixth rank.
There were quite a few assassins of this caliber in the Qi Prince's mansion, and coupled with the fact that he was outnumbered, even with the Liu family's warriors desperately protecting him, he was still sustaining more and more injuries.
Later, as he watched the Liu family warriors fall one by one, he became bloodthirsty. Although he killed many enemies, his own injuries became more and more severe.
The Eastern Palace was already at a significant disadvantage. After a fierce battle, they were almost completely wiped out, with only him and a few family warriors remaining alive.
As more and more enemies surrounded him, he was about to close his eyes when suddenly the Zuan warriors descended from the sky and wiped out a large number of Qi King's elite soldiers. Those men had the blood of countless warriors from various families on their hands, and seeing them killed gave them a sense of satisfaction.
But once that inner strength dissipated, he could no longer hold on and collapsed to the ground.
Zuan rushed over to help him up, and seeing that he had no life force left, he said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I can't save you."
Having just fought with Wei Pingyang and He Li, he had narrowly escaped death several times and dared not be distracted for even a moment. By the time he arrived, there were only a few people left on the East Palace side.
"We stayed behind prepared to die, so we don't need your help." Liu Xian smiled, his usual greasy smile now unusually carefree.
"Is there anything you want me to convey?" Zuan asked in a deep voice.
“Yes, I have a lot to say,” Liu Xian’s eyes began to glaze over, and his tone gradually lowered. “I know everyone in the capital looks down on me, but I have such talent, what can I do?”
“If you manage to get out of here alive, go tell my father that all these years he's been dragged down by me and ridiculed by the people of Beijing, but at least this time he can hold his head high and know that his son isn't just a good-for-nothing who only knows how to play around with women!”
Zu An said in a deep voice, "At that time, not only your father, but everyone in the capital will know this."
"Really?" Liu Xian smiled slightly. "By the way, I also keep a few concubines at home. Let them leave quietly, so that the Liu family won't make them die with me. I can't let them suffer because they're with me."
"I don't want to die far from home. If I have the chance, I will definitely have the Liu family go into the secret realm again to take my remains out. I also don't want to go into the Liu family ancestral hall, so as not to upset the ancestors of the Liu family."
"My death is too gruesome, it will damage my reputation as a handsome and dashing man. So just burn me and scatter my ashes in the river next to Tianxianju. When the girls in Tianxianju see the rippling blue water, they will know that I am greeting them."
"Ah, what a pity. I was planning to use my unparalleled charm to conquer the seventh girl of the academy after leaving the secret realm..."
...
Liu Xian's voice grew softer and softer until he finally fell silent. His eyes were wide open as he died, clearly indicating that he had too many unfulfilled wishes.
Zuan gently closed his eyes: "Don't worry, I will definitely fulfill your wishes."
"You can't even survive yourself, yet you want to fulfill other people's wishes?" A figure stood up shakily, covered in bloodstains, his clothes reduced to tattered strips, looking like the most wretched beggar.
However, his eyes were very bright, indicating that his injuries were not as serious as they appeared.
Wei Pingyang said hatefully, "I have to admit, you are indeed very capable, managing to force us into such a desperate situation. Your move just now was also amazing, but unfortunately, it wasn't enough to kill me."
Zu Anxin sank to the bottom of the valley. That was almost his most powerful move, yet it still couldn't do anything to his opponent. So, it's true that one can't defeat a Grandmaster unless one reaches the Grandmaster realm.
"Everyone else, go capture the Crown Prince and Crown Princess. Leave this guy to me," Wei Pingyang ordered. The warriors left behind by the Eastern Palace to cover the retreat have been almost completely wiped out, though their losses were also considerable.
Despite overwhelming the enemy and killing more than half of them, they still suffered heavy losses. They don't know how to explain this to King Qi when they return.
In fact, the biggest casualties were caused by this guy right in front of us!
Another guest, He Li, was a peak ninth-rank expert. He had just awakened those people controlled by Daji and killed the rampaging beasts. As a result, he witnessed the sky full of sword energy from Zu'an.
He grew increasingly terrified. If that move had been meant for me, I probably wouldn't be alive today.
It's best to stay away from this monster.
Therefore, upon hearing Wei Pingyang's arrangement, he had no objections whatsoever and hurriedly led the remaining Qi Prince's guards to chase after the direction where Bi Linglong and the others had just left.
Those people were either injured or disabled, so catching up with them wouldn't be difficult.
Zu An also thought of this and wanted to stop him, but Wei Pingyang stood in front of him and did not give him any chance at all.
If they catch up, then the sacrifices of so many people, including Liu Xian, will have been meaningless.
Zuan sighed inwardly, realizing he shouldn't have acted on emotion.
Although he thought this way, his eyes became exceptionally firm. He looked up in the direction of He Li and the others and immediately unleashed his foul language.
