He pursed his lips, his face cold and stern, waved his hand, and said in a low voice, "Leave them here!"
The assassins, who obeyed the orders of the Prince of Pingnan, appeared out of nowhere. These assassins, with their numb and indifferent eyes, brandished their swords and charged towards Long Xun and his companions. Their swords flashed like mercury, impenetrable and enveloping the three of them in a sea of sword light.
The attack was overwhelming, and it seemed there was no way to escape!
However, this did not work.
Just as Gu Nu and Chen Ziqi turned around alertly, Long Xun suddenly flipped his hand and took out a dark red, eerie umbrella from his personal space—the umbrella Long Xun used to shield himself from the blood when he killed those disobedient officials—and leisurely unfolded it above his head. The dragon tail behind him, which swayed gently in the air as he walked, suddenly grew longer!
The silver dragon tail suddenly shot out like a giant python, sweeping across the courtyard with lightning speed. The terrifying power that almost cleaved through space created a strong hurricane that nearly blew the people in the courtyard away, not to mention the assassins who suddenly pounced and were hit by the dragon tail!
With muffled thuds of flesh exploding, the assassins, like plastic bags floating in the air, were punched down by a brat and deformed before crashing to the ground, leaving a trail of blood in their wake.
Except for Long Xun, who was holding an umbrella, almost everyone in the courtyard was drenched in the blood rain. But what terrified them even more was that a dark, menacing rift had silently opened in the space where the dragon's tail had just swept past. Everyone felt as if time itself had slowed down. In their sluggish state, they saw the assassins, who had already fallen to the ground barely breathing, trembling slightly as if they were about to fly back into the air.
With a single tail, he perfectly avoided all innocent people, targeting only the assassins who had made the move. However, Long Xun had still overused his strength; this space couldn't even withstand the power of his single tail, and it nearly collapsed, with even some signs of time reversal appearing.
No one knows how much time passed, perhaps a moment, but in everyone's consciousness it felt like thousands of years, before the black crack disappeared.
Long Xun had already turned around. His silver dragon tail was stained with blood from the previous slap, making it look ferocious and terrifying.
Chen Ziqi calmly wiped the blood from her face and sincerely said to Long Xun, "Brother Long, next time you lose your temper, can you at least tell me?"
As for the Gu woman... this girl turned to stone after she bled.
Long Xun ignored her, only looking at the Prince of Pingnan, and said in a deep voice with a hint of interest for the first time, "Truly... commendable courage."
After a long silence, screams erupted from the mouths of the people in the Pingnan Prince's Mansion. They cried out that it was a monster and desperately tried to run away from this terrible place that resembled purgatory, away from that horrible demon. Some even rushed forward to attack in a state of mental collapse.
Yin Bei was better at martial arts, and when the blood rained down, he subconsciously dodged, so he didn't look as disheveled as the others.
His face was horribly pale. When he realized that the people in the Pingnan Prince's mansion intended to attack Long Xun, and that terrifying tail rose again, he roared, "Enough! Quiet down! Take Father back to his room!"
The servants were momentarily stunned by his shout, but Yin Bei hurriedly said, "Grand Preceptor, I will go with you to meet the Emperor."
Long Xun nodded slightly, ignoring the corpses on the ground, and said indifferently to the Gu woman, "If you can't accept it, you can save them."
Then, he left the Prince of Pingnan's residence without looking back.
The Gu woman trembled slightly, as if she wanted to smile, but failed.
She understood that Long Xun was trying to protect them, but seeing people die so tragically still filled her with fear.
She just needs to calm down; it's not that she can't accept it... She's incapable of having such ridiculous thoughts as not needing your help.
