Chapter 188 Emperor x Cultist 9
West looked like a madman, looking at the blood on her palm with a distorted expression.
Her nose felt like it was broken, and she felt a sharp pain. How dare this reckless white cat get close to Honglian and even hurt her?!
Then never think about having an easy life.
Everyone in the civilian area kept their doors closed, fearing that they would be spotted by the nobles.
Compared to West, they were actually more afraid of offending the people in the church, but when faced with such a situation, they could only close the doors and windows.
Qian Zhou's strength was almost exhausted and his running speed slowed down. The person behind him was slowly closing the distance with him.
At the edge of the civilian area, Qian Zhou suddenly saw the figure of the guard, led by the Paladin Nalan.
Qian Zhou stopped. If Nalan stood on West's side, he would be in great danger.
He fought with the people behind him on the roof and launched several attacks.
But it was basically useless, there were too many of them, and they attacked Qianzhou one after another.
Qianzhou landed on the ground, with several attacks approaching in front of him, when suddenly a child appeared in his sight.
Qian Zhou's pupils suddenly shrank, and he protected the child behind him without thinking.
"ah--!"
The white crows in the sky cried sharply, and snowflakes fell densely.
"What's that sound?" Nalan asked with a frown.
A young man stumbled out from a distance. Little Potter was almost out of breath from running. "Sir Paladin! Help!"
Nalan quickly dismounted, sword in hand, "Where is it?"
"That, over there!" Little Potter pointed in the direction of Qianzhou.
Nalan moved even faster and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Little Potter clasped his hands together in worry and prayed towards the church.
"You must protect Qianzhou, he is a very good adult..."
In the dark alley of the civilian area, West put her hand to her lips, "Shh, the Paladins are patrolling nearby."
Qianzhou was pushed against the wall, with his head hanging and his tail held in someone's hand.
West stared at the blood oozing from his back and glanced at the child nonchalantly, "Good boy."
The child was too frightened to speak.
The dagger in West's hand flashed with cold light as she approached Qianzhou, "Be a tailless cat from now on."
"Cough... cough cough... West." Qian Zhou's face was pale and he spoke slowly.
"If you dare to touch me, I will kill you if I survive."
West paused, intimidated by Qianzhou's gaze.
She said angrily, "You've fallen to this point and you still dare to threaten me?!"
She raised her hand high, wanting to slap Qian Zhou hard to let him know who was the superior.
At this moment, West suddenly felt her hand being grabbed by a huge force and she couldn't move.
Nalan walked out slowly, "Private fighting is prohibited in civilian areas."
"Nalan, you are protecting him too!" West was furious and clenched her fists tightly.
Nalan's pale grey eyes glanced at her coldly, "The emperor has appointed him to participate in the parade, and it is my responsibility to ensure his safety."
"If he's dead, then he's dead. Can't we just replace him?!"
Since ancient times, there has been no possibility of replacing the candidate once the emperor has appointed him.
From the moment Honglian said Qianzhou's name, the parade list had been recorded in the classics.
Nalan once again clearly realized West's stupidity, and he didn't want to say more.
He waved away West's men, grabbed Qianzhou's arm with one hand, and soon discovered the injury on Qianzhou's back.
The white cat hybrid's reaction is several times faster than that of an average person, so how could it not dodge it?
Nalan then saw the child on the ground and immediately understood what had happened.
His eyes moved and he asked, "Can you still walk?"
Qian Zhou coughed weakly, "Not very good..."
That blow just now almost made him vomit, and Qianzhou's back still hurts.
Nalan wanted to take him away, but West screamed, "Stop! Do you want to go against the Duke?"
The sound of horse hooves came closer and closer, and the rest of the guard team arrived, but West didn't care.
"Nalan, if you dare to take him away, I won't let you go either."
West was obstructed several times, and his eyes turned red with anger. He stared at Qianzhou, and his disgust for him became even stronger.
She looked towards the exit and saw that it was not the guards who turned into the dark alley.
It's red lotus.
"Nalan, where are the soldiers from the city defense department?" Honglian asked in a questioning tone.
He raised his eyes, took in the scene in the alley, and finally his gaze fell on Qian Zhou.
"This is?"
West called out in a delicate voice, "Honglian!"
Nalan was like an ice sculpture. He said in a businesslike manner, "Wester and Qianzhou were fighting privately in the civilian area."
Qian Zhou coughed anxiously, "What private fight? She hit me unilaterally."
"Are you injured?" Honglian looked at Qianzhou's tail.
The soft and smooth fur that I remembered was now a mess, and there were bloodstains on Qianzhou's back. His skin color was originally pale, and it looked even worse after being beaten.
At this moment, it looked miserable and pitiful.
When West heard Honglian ask this, her cheeks turned slightly red. She was surprised that Honglian actually cared about her.
"Yes, my nose is broken..."
He pointed at Qian Zhou and said, "He was the one who hit me."

Qianzhou: Hmm? Why did you add it?
[System 052: Wow, so he is this kind of Honglian]
"Honglian... help me punish him." West covered her nose in a pitiful manner, "It hurts."
"According to the laws of the kingdom, he will be confined for six months." Honglian said, grabbing Qianzhou's wrist and pulling him in front of him.
Nalan suppressed Weisite and said, "Come with me."
Before West could react, she pointed at Qianzhou and said, "What? Aren't you supposed to catch him?"
She changed her expression faster than turning the pages of a book. She tried to struggle but was held down by Nalan. "You caught the wrong person!"
"You caught me right." Nalan had had enough and left immediately with West.
Qianzhou could hear West's screams until they were far away.
Honglian's red hair reflected the scorching sun. He was like a handsome lion and had absolute prestige in his territory.
"Why didn't you dodge the attack just now?" Honglian said, "You have the ability to do so."
Qian Zhou looked down at the small figure hiding in the corner and said, "Forget it."

Honglian jumped on the horse, pulled the reins and walked for a distance, then looked back and saw Qianzhou was still standing there.
"What are you nostalgic for?"
Qianzhou leaned against the wall, slightly tilting his head, "I...I'll be leaving soon."
Honglian noticed the blood drops dripping on the snow, was silent for a moment, and reached out to Qianzhou.
"Get on the horse, I'll take you back."
