Chapter 429 Three Divine Martial Realms
Xu Shenzhi seemed to have anticipated his reaction. The moment he kicked over the table, he quietly took two steps back, and his clothes were not stained at all.
His second prince is really good at putting on a good show.
He always appears to be polite and gentle to the outside world, but in fact he has a bad temper and even has difficulty controlling his anger.
As for cunning, I can’t say that he doesn’t have any, but he is really pitifully shallow.
And this, in his opinion, is a huge advantage.
At this tense moment, something strange happened!
A blazing and overbearing scorching "force" descended from the sky without any warning, like a blazing flame falling from the sky, heading straight for Xu Shenzhi's head.
The temperature in the dining hall soared instantly and the air was distorted, as if it was about to burst into flames in the next moment.
However, Xu Shenzhi seemed to have eyes behind his head, and he took action the moment the terrifying attack was about to hit him.
The figure blurred like a ghost, leaving only a faint afterimage.
The next moment, he appeared in the center of the dining room, and the strong wind he brought made the candlelight flicker.
It was moving so fast that it caused a rustling sound in the wind.
A figure then appeared where Xu Shenzhi had originally stood, with a stern face and a burning aura of fire surrounding him - it was Qin Jingheng's personal bodyguard.
He is also a third-rank expert who came from the Xuanji Guard, and is equivalent to Liu Yan who is beside the eldest princess.
The moment he understood the content of the surrender document, he decided to kill the traitor who had bewitched the second prince on the spot.
And Xu Shenzhi obviously knew this too.
But the problem is, even if he was aware of it in advance, he was actually able to escape safely from the sudden assassination attack of a third-grade Xuanji Guard!
Qin Jingheng was shocked on the spot.
As his first aide, Xu Shenzhi has never shown any sign of his cultivation for many years.
He had always thought that the other party had not even entered the ordinary martial arts realm, but... he was actually a hidden master of the third level?
Hiding so deeply, its purpose must be enormous.
Could it be that he has been waiting for such an opportunity all these years?
At this moment, Qin Jingheng's face was no longer ugly, but pale with fear.
On the other side, the captain of the Xuanji Guard missed his attack and his killing intent became even stronger.
Seeing Xu Shenzhi fleeing into the hall, just in time!
The people from the four great families are also traitors, so just wipe them out at once!
The next moment, flames several times more ferocious than the previous explosion appeared out of nowhere and crashed down towards the five people in the hall like a raging wave.
The calligraphy and paintings on the walls were instantly ignited, and the entire dining hall was like being thrown into a huge furnace. The terrible high temperature swept across everything, wanting to burn all living things to ashes.
A violent wind suddenly blew up in the hall, and the air waves stirred by the terrifying force rolled up the flames to form a terrifying vortex of fire, which suddenly rushed out of the hall.
The thick wooden door was shattered, sending wood chips flying everywhere.
Outside the door, I saw the wind howling and the flames dancing wildly.
At this critical moment, a sword and a knife suddenly appeared silently on both sides of the Xuanji Guard's body.
The blade's light was cold, and the sword's edge was sharp, but it actually pierced through the raging fire curtain accurately and pierced the vital point. The timing was perfectly grasped!
In a split second, the captain of the Xuanji Guard was attacked from both sides and could only rely on his fighting instinct to twist his body to avoid the attack.
Squeak! Squeak!
The blade and the tip of the sword pierced his body almost at the same time, bringing out two puffs of blood rain.
But at the last moment, he narrowly avoided the heart and other fatal parts.
"Well!"
With a muffled groan, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, and flames around him erupted again.
The scorching air wave hit the faces of the two people who were attacking from behind, temporarily forcing them to retreat.
He used the recoil force to rush forward rapidly, while controlling the flames to rush towards the people from the four major families who were still sitting there.
Attack and you will be rescued!
However, the raging flames suddenly hit an invisible wind wall about ten feet away from the people of the four major families.
The raging flames that were powerful enough to melt gold and iron were blocked, preventing them from advancing even an inch.
The two attackers behind him were shrouded in a faint glow and rushed into the fire scene in the scorching air.
The flash of swords and sabers appeared again, accurately piercing through the body of Xuanji Wei Qianhu, who was slightly delayed due to the use of his ultimate move.
"How dare you!!"
Qin Jingheng let out a roar of shock and anger, and subconsciously wanted to move forward, but was forced to retreat again and again by the aftermath of the terrifying power.
However, the next moment, an invisible but sharp wind blade silently crossed the flames.
All sounds seemed to disappear suddenly.
The captain of the Xuanji Guard froze in his tracks, and the light in his eyes quickly dimmed.
Immediately afterwards, a head was separated from the neck and hot blood gushed out like a fountain.
The headless body fell to the ground with a dull thud.
The head rolled on the ground several times, covered with ashes and blood, and finally stopped right at Qin Jingheng's feet.
The pair of eyes that had not yet completely closed were looking at him blankly.
Qin Jingheng's body shook violently, as if struck by lightning. He looked at the familiar head at his feet in disbelief, then suddenly looked up at the hall.
His fingers trembled, his lips quivered, his eyes were bloodshot, but he couldn't utter a word.
After killing the captain of Xuanji Guard appointed by His Majesty himself, there is no turning back.
Moreover, the other party had ambushed three powerful men in the Divine Martial Realm silently!
After such a dangerous battle, the people from the four great families were still sitting in their original positions calmly, without showing any signs of panic.
No one even stood up, no one changed color.
It seemed as if the lightning-fast life-and-death struggle just now was just an entertainment to liven up the meal, insignificant.
Wang Yun calmly picked up the wine jug and filled his glass with wine again.
Then he raised his glass and looked towards Qin Jingheng, who was pale and trembling all over, with the faint smile on his lips still unchanged.
"Now, Your Highness, could you perhaps calm down and have a good chat with us about this deal?"
