Chapter 102 Assassination
Two hundred imperial guards arrived at the gate of Longmen County in the heavy rain.
The gatekeeper originally thought that it was the eldest princess who had returned, but after asking, he found out that it was the Sixth Princess.
Qin Zhaoyue did not insist on riding a horse this time. He was helped into the carriage in the early morning with sleepy eyes and slept well all the way.
I had originally planned to cook at noon, but I didn't expect to encounter a downpour.
Anyway, we were not far from Longmen County, so we decided to hurry on our way.
"Your Highness, the Grand Prince is in Longmen County."
After opening the curtains, Qin Zhaoyue breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
Wow, after chasing all the way, I finally caught up with him.
"Where is my eldest sister now?"
"They said they had just arrived and were checking the water conditions. It's been two hours, but we don't know where they are."
Qin Zhaoyue thought about it and felt that if he chased after him at this time, he might not be able to see the person.
It’s better to go directly to the county government office and wait for news.
This is a mature and prudent approach and has nothing to do with laziness.
So he called the gatekeeper to lead the way and headed towards the county government office.
"Uncle Gong, what are they busy with?"
Li Xuan sat under the corridor and stared at the rain in a daze. He had heard that the imperial envoys had entered the city, so he went to wait near the city gate early.
As a result, it was the eldest princess who came, and the sixth princess did not accompany her. She came with high hopes but left disappointed.
Uncle Gong's movements were a little stiff as he slowly turned around and said, "Young Master, you are here."
"Stop talking nonsense and tell me what you've been doing!"
Li Xuan was very sensitive at this time. He noticed that Uncle Gong looked strange and asked immediately.
"Nothing... just the government came to call, saying something's going on..."
Li Xuan stood up and strode in front of him. "Come on, tell me, is there anything you need to be hesitant about with me, the young master?"
Uncle Gong stood there respectfully, with an embarrassed look on his face, but he hesitated and said nothing.
Li Xuan narrowed his eyes.
There is only one possibility that could make him do this, and that is the task assigned by his father.
"Where are Chansi and Poxiao? Call them over!"
"Master...they went out for something..."
Before he finished speaking, Li Xuan rushed into the rain, and did not stop no matter how Uncle Gong shouted behind him.
Soon, the two riders left Li's house and headed straight for the county government office.
On this side, Qin Zhaoyue's team was less than a hundred steps away from the county government office.
She was originally sitting idle in the carriage when she suddenly heard the old rogue's voice, "Be careful, there's an assassin!"
Suimo and Yaoguang immediately perked up, and although their movements seemed normal, they were actually ready to strike at any time.
Qin Zhaoyue's heart was pounding. Why did someone suddenly want to assassinate her?
At this moment, lightning streaked across the sky, and a silver light hidden in it pierced the carriage rapidly from top to bottom, pointing directly at where Qin Zhaoyue was.
"I've got you..."
The gentle tone seemed to whisper in the ear, but the attack was as fierce as fire.
when!
With a crisp sound, the long sword was broken by a blow, and half of the sword blade flew far away and pierced into the corridor pillar. It was three-tenths into the wood and was still shaking!
Liu Yan appeared and aimed his iron fan at the opponent's neck, but it was dodged by a hair's breadth.
He pursued the enemy relentlessly, still muttering, "A half-step third-grade warlock dares to act so presumptuously in front of me?"
The man in white never imagined that there would be a master of the Divine Martial Realm by the Sixth Princess' side!
It was originally just a side mission, a supplement to killing the eldest princess. Sending him out was like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut, and now it has become a joke.
The name Liuyan was not chosen for nothing.
"Flow" refers to speed, and "Flame" refers to the fact that his attacks explode like fire.
Although the counterattack just now did not really land, he felt a tearing pain in his neck at this moment.
If it had been hit, I might have died here today.
Unfortunately, he was only half a step into the third rank and had not really stepped into it. His "momentum" was also crushed by the opponent, and it was extremely difficult to resist for a while.
The man's attack was a signal, and at the same time three assassins attacked the imperial guards.
All three of them were masters of the Qiwu realm, and the imperial guards were thrown to the ground in an instant.
They were not greedy for the fruits of victory and did not attack the imperial guards who had no power to fight back. Their target was directly the carriage in the middle.
Qingfeng and Xiyu, who acted as grooms, rushed out immediately without any hesitation.
There are many people around the Sixth Princess, so she really doesn't need the two of them.
As for the remaining assassin... Boom!
Ping An threw a punch with a big grin on his face: Finally...finally he's alive!
After eating for free for so long, I can finally put my food to good use.
The killer used a stick and swept a large area. The imperial guards fell to the sides like chess pieces, and were met with a powerful punch head-on.
He was using a stick, but when it hit his fist, he lost his strength and took a step back?
As soon as I looked up, I saw the huge grin on Ping'an's lips.
Is this person a pervert?
As soon as this thought came to mind, the fist came again.
Ping An didn't care about that. He only remembered what his ugly sister said:
As long as the punch is fast enough and strong enough, no one can hurt the beautiful sister.
So each punch was faster and heavier than the last.
The three killers' unstoppable attack was stopped, and they were still more than ten steps away from the carriage.
At this moment, two figures rushed past along the trajectory they had taken and rushed towards the carriage where the Sixth Princess was.
As the saying goes, even a lion will use all its strength to fight a rabbit. The person who set up the killing array can be said to be extremely cautious.
A half-step divine martial arts realm sorcerer led the charge, and three Qi martial arts realm warriors charged in, but there were actually two fifth-grade killers hiding in secret.
To deal with the unfavored Sixth Princess, his fighting power was completely overflowing, too much!
Then the two fifth-grade killers ran into their respective opponents head-on.
Mo Yi led a group, Mo Er led a group, and each group of three formed a Sancai formation, each of which resisted two assassins.
They have been cooperating for a long time, and their transitions between offense and defense are extremely smooth. Although they are both only at the sixth rank, they can easily withstand a fifth rank for a short period of time.
assassin:?
Why, why would a useless princess be secretly guarded by a powerful Divine Martial Realm warrior?
One Shenwu realm is not enough, there are also a bunch of Qiwu realms.
Not one or two, but a bunch! A bunch!
The two groups of assassins and five killers on the ground were all blocked at this time.
This is not the most infuriating thing. The most infuriating thing is that there are six women, each standing in a three-talent formation, guarding the carriage in front and behind, and did not participate in the battle.
What's going on? Qi Wu Realm isn't worth much, is it? What are you doing?
The man in white took a glance at the situation below and was completely stunned.
This shouldn't be the case. Senior brother used some tricks to conceal the secret. No one could have predicted this assassination.
But if it wasn't anticipated, what was going on around the little Sixth Princess?
He was distracted and the iron fan brushed past his arm.
The cloth immediately turned into shreds, and blood streamed down his left arm. He quickly gathered his thoughts and ran for his life.
"You dare to be distracted while fighting me, you warlock boy, you are really courting death..."
