Chapter 140
"Your Highness, I was merely following orders."
"Besides, the whole world belongs to His Majesty, let alone a small Goose Ash Talisman in the hands of the Prince?" the man said.
Yingning glanced behind the tree and noticed something strange.
These people were not pleasant to talk to, and the leader also seemed to be speaking in an unfriendly tone.
The emperor's man?
The Wild Goose Ashes Talisman?
Yingning glanced at the world's storyline and found that there was no mention of the existence of Yan Jinfu.
However, since the emperor is so concerned about this talisman, there must be some hidden secret within this "Wild Goose Ash Talisman".
Yingning heard Yan Chaoji's voice:
"The Wild Goose Ashes Talisman was a gift from the late emperor."
"This item is too valuable for me to carry with me." Yan Chaoji did not sheathe his sword at this moment, letting the beast blood flow freely at his feet.
The air fell silent the moment he said that.
The leader smiled, tearing away the facade of pretense:
"Why must Your Highness conceal this from me?"
"Your Majesty knows that the Prince will surely carry the Wild Goose Ash Talisman with him. If the Prince can hand it over readily, it will save me the trouble of taking action."
"Your Highness should suffer less."
After speaking, the man took out a strangely shaped bell from his pocket. He held it in front of his eyes, but did not shake it. Instead, he continued:
"Your Highness, let's not make things more complicated."
His voice held a hint of mockery, as if he disdained this renowned war god of the Min Dynasty.
"I will not hand over the Wild Goose Ash Talisman."
Ignoring the threat, Yan Chaoji turned his sword around and pointed it at the leader:
"Report to His Majesty on my behalf: the Yan Jin Fu was a gift bestowed upon me by the late Emperor."
"Unless I die, the Wild Goose Ashes Talisman will never fall into his hands!"
Yan Chaoji's hawk-like eyes were brimming with murderous intent.
The leader, however, had no idea why Yan Chaoji was being so difficult to deal with this time.
The leader immediately hardened his heart and decided to teach this regent who dared to disobey His Majesty a lesson!
"Is Your Highness now planning to refuse a polite toast only to suffer a penalty shot?"
"Then there's no need to show mercy to that scoundrel."
After saying this, a mocking look appeared in his eyes, and he lightly shook the strangely shaped bell in his hand.
A chilling sound rang out from within the bell.
Yan Chaoji's face turned pale.
Seeing Yan Chaoji's expression, the man spoke again:
"Your Highness, handing over the Wild Goose Ash Talisman now will save you from some suffering."
He never expected that the man in the black robe would not be afraid of the bell in his hand at all, but would suddenly draw his sword and attack him directly!
"Regent! How dare you disobey His Majesty's orders!!" The leader had already smelled the stench of beast blood on the hilt of the sword and was momentarily enraged.
"Don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Yan Chaoji's sword did not stop. His face was a little pale, but the sword once again attacked the leader, trying to stop him from ringing the bell.
But who would have thought that this person was so skilled in light footwork that he managed to dodge several moves from Yan Chaoji's sword and immediately retreated to a flat area not far away.
"superior!"
He gave a soft shout, signaling his accomplices behind him to immediately surround Yan Chaoji.
Then, the leader, not far away, rhythmically rang a bell...
One bell after another...
streaks of sword energy...
The convergence of these elements in the mountains and forests at this time inevitably makes one's ears tingle.
Although the bell-bearer's companions were not as skilled as the famous regent, they had the advantage of numbers and managed to fight Yan Chaoji to a draw.
Yan Chaoji narrowly escaped a sword strike!
The next sword strike was aimed at his shoulder!
He instinctively used a crescent slash to block the sword, but the third sword came again!
Yan Chaoji dodged to the side, just as he was about to thrust his sword out!
The sudden, loud ringing of the bell forced him to pause for a moment.
The sword actually fell, and Yan Chaoji's momentary pause allowed him to use his body to withstand the blow!
His waist was immediately soaked with blood, and the ink on his robes became even darker.
Seeing this, the leader rang the bell in his hand even more incessantly!
Yan Chaoji's face gradually turned pale as the bell rang, and afterwards, every move he made seemed to slow down visibly.
The veins on his forehead bulged, making the murderous intent in his hawk-like eyes even more apparent.
"Regent, the punishment isn't so easy to bear," the bell-bearer said ominously.
Yan Chaoji had no time to deal with this person at the moment, so he could only use his sword to block the attacks one after another!
But the more he struggled, the more wounds he sustained.
A moment later...
"What, Your Highness is still unwilling to hand over the Wild Goose Ember Talisman?" The leader was getting impatient.
Yan Chaoji already had many wounds on his body, but he still held his sword and confronted the crowd. The blood on the sword slowly flowed, staining the back of his hand with blood.
"I will not hand over the Wild Goose Ashes Talisman!"
"It seems Your Highness is going to defy His Majesty."
"Hahahaha, then Your Highness, please enjoy yourself!"
The bell-bearer put away the copper bell and then surprisingly took out a bone flute, which he put to his lips and began to play softly.
The bone flute, made of some unknown material, produced a sound that made one feel nauseous.
The flute music was strange, but the leader's smile never faded.
Meanwhile, Yan Chaoji, on the other side, had turned ashen-faced.
The pain in Eagle Eyes was now undisguised; his forehead was covered in sweat, and the black iron sword he held trembled slightly.
Everyone immediately surrounded them!
In the blink of an eye, he had more than a dozen more wounds on his body.
The sides of his thin lips had already turned somewhat red.
Yan Chaoji held his sword, wanting to continue killing these people, but he could only unleash 30% of his power!
The flute player glanced coldly at Yan Chaoji, feeling a morbid sense of satisfaction at trampling such a person underfoot.
This regent...
How dare they disobey His Majesty's orders...
Today, let him taste the power of this Furious Bone Flute!
He changed the tune of his flute and immediately produced an even stranger, stickier sound.
Yan Chaoji's pupils were bloodshot, his whole body was trembling from the pain, and he coughed up a large amount of blood.
........
But the attack by these people did not stop, and the person holding the flute was planning to torture Yan Chaoji once again.
Suddenly a whip struck, instantly knocking the bone flute from his hand!
"who?!!"
"Who is it?!" The person took the flute away and immediately realized what was happening, looking towards a place with dense foliage.
On the tree trunk, they found a woman whose face was covered by a black cloth.
Who are you?!
"How dare you stop me?!" This person was clearly not yet recovered from the humiliation he had just inflicted on the God of War of the Min Dynasty, and instead continued to question the woman who had covered her face with her head held high.
"I don't mean to stop you..."
"only..."
"Your performance is really too awful; I can't stand it anymore."
The leader heard her say this.
