Chapter 489 Killing Shen Hechuan
"Mu Qian——"
Gu Jingchun suddenly called out to him loudly.
Shen Hechuan stopped but did not turn around.
"I'll wait for you to come back."
The person in front did not speak, but waved his hand, signaling Gu Jingchun to go back, and then he strode away.
Gu Jingchun stared at his back until the dark color merged into the vast military formation, then he let a tear slide down his cheek and fall into the dust.
At this time, in the martial arts training ground outside the capital, war horses were neighing and weapons were everywhere.
One hundred thousand elite soldiers lined up like an iron stream, their black armor reflecting the sun, shining brightly with cold light.
Chen Hechuan galloped to the command platform, unsheathed his long sword and pointed it at the sky, the sound like thunder piercing his ears:
"My people! Today, the Great Qi is unkind, attempting to attack Dacheng, slaughtering my people and trampling over my land! Are you willing to follow me—wash away the humiliation with blood, and expand our territory with the sword?"
"Yes! Yes! Yes!"
The three armies roared together, and the sound shook the sky.
Spears slammed into the ground, shields collided, and every step shook the earth.
The veterans had tears in their eyes, the new recruits clenched their fists excitedly, and countless eyes were fixed on the figure in black armor.
The emperor wears the same battle robe with them and goes through life and death together!
The war drums beat and the trumpets blew.
The army marched westward like a black torrent, its horses' hooves crushing the smoke and dust, its flags breaking through the clouds.
The people lined the streets to see them off, throwing wine and flower petals, and cheering like a tide:
"God bless your majesty! Triumph!"
The desolate sound of war songs drifted in the wind, mixed with the clanging of armor and the clatter of horses' hooves.
The setting sun on the distant mountains was as red as blood, making the entire army look like a prairie fire, burning brightly on the skyline.
Chen Hechuan looked back at the capital city which was gradually getting farther away, his fingers brushed over the subtle outline of the amulet on his chest, then he reined in his horse and turned around, his eyes fixed on the endless journey.
Thousands of miles of mountains and rivers are all under the iron hoofs.
The universe, the sun and the moon will eventually bear witness to this magnificent epic written by the emperor and his soldiers.
On the deserted street, a carriage was struggling to move along the official road.
The man driving the carriage didn't breathe a sigh of relief until it left Dacheng's territory.
The man found a secluded and shady place, stopped, tied up the horse, and then lifted the curtain to look at the people in the carriage.
"Master, how do you feel now?"
There was a thick quilt in the carriage, and the quilt was bulging, as if there was a person wrapped inside.
He heard the noise, lifted the quilt, revealing a pair of sinister eyes.
Above that is a small mustache, and below that he is wearing a Taoist robe.
He responded calmly.
"Zixiao, carry me down."
Mao Zixiao nodded and quickly reached out to pick Guan Zhixin up.
Yes, the two people in front of him were none other than Guan Zhixin who disappeared some time ago.
That day, after Mao Zixiao escaped with Guan Zhixin, they suffered a lot along the way in order to avoid being hunted down.
Thanks to their familiarity with the secret passages in various places in Dacheng, they were able to escape and provide Guan Zhixin with timely medical treatment, thus saving Guan Zhixin's life.
However, Shen Hechuan and Jiang Chongfan had set up a tight net, and they had no way of getting out. Even if they were in disguise, they would still be subject to strict scrutiny.
Even many of their people have been arrested.
Moreover, Chen Hechuan was also spreading the news that Guiyuan Sect was suspected of treason, and anyone who had anything to do with Guiyuan Sect was arrested.
This caused the number of people in Guiyuan Sect to decrease instantly.
The thousands of disciples that Guan Zhixin was proud of hid themselves and cut off all ties with Guiyuan Sect after they found out that they would be arrested if they believed in Guiyuan Sect.
In order to clear their guilt, some people led officers and soldiers to look for the secret passage of Guiyuan Gate.
That day, Mao Zixiao noticed something was wrong when he saw that the person who went to buy food had not returned yet.
Seeing that the man was coming with soldiers, Mao Zixiao didn't care about anything else and picked up Guan Zhixin and ran away.
Fortunately, the most core secret door and secret passage of Guiyuan Sect is unknown to many people except Guan Zhixin and Mao Zixiao.
The two were able to escape.
Afterwards, Mao Zixiao took Guan Zhixin on several chases and dodged many pursuers before bringing the person out.
As a result, both of them suffered a lot of injuries.
Guan Zhixin's wounds, which had no healed yet, also became red, swollen and festered.
Guan Zhixin was desperate at that time.
He had never imagined that the tens of thousands of people he had painstakingly built up throughout his life would eventually collapse so easily!
How ridiculous!
These people, these hateful people.
They kept saying that they were grateful for the late prince's kindness and vowed to get him back at all costs.
However, now, just an order from Shen Hechuan scared everyone out of their wits and made them run away as fast as they could.
In the end, they even betrayed him.
Such foolish people are not worthy of following the late crown prince. They are not worthy!
As Guan Zhixin was thinking this, he suddenly felt waves of severe pain.
This woke him up from the chaos.
"Master, you're awake!"
As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Mao Zixiao's dirty face.
"Master, your wound has become festered. I'll get rid of the pus for you. Please bear with it."
Having said that, he started working again.
Guan Zhixin only felt waves of piercing pain.
After the pain subsided, Mao Zixiao bandaged Guan Zhixin's wound and said:
"Fortunately, I brought some medicine with me when we left that day, otherwise your wound would be in danger now."
Guan Zhixin was covered in sweat. Upon hearing this, he just nodded and then fainted.
Mao Zixiao has gotten used to it.
Guan Zhixin was in poor health. He was already weak and sickly, and now he was injured. After this period of ups and downs, he had become skin and bones.
It's very light now.
Mao Zixiao carried him back to a pile of hay, and he woke up after a while.
Mao Zixiao had shot a pheasant and was roasting it until it was juicy and juicy. Guan Zhixin opened his eyes.
"Where are we now?"
Mao Zixiao first handed a chicken leg to Mao Zixiao, and then spoke.
"We have reached the realm of Dacheng."
Mao Zixiao took another bite of the chicken leg and said, "Master, you have been in a daze all the way here, and there are many things you don't understand.
But now I understand everything clearly.”
"Da Qi has now assembled an army of 300,000 and has declared war on us Da Cheng.
After hearing the news, Shen Hechuan asked the Queen to supervise the country, and he personally led the army.
“I have already thought of a solution.
We just need to bribe Dacheng's people and take the opportunity to poison Shen Hechuan.
Anyway, the Empress is the regent now, and the world will belong to her in the future.
In this way, Master, your wish can be fulfilled naturally."
Guan Zhixin had recovered some strength, but he still lacked the energy to speak.
He held the chicken leg in his hand and slowly lifted it up.
“No, no, no…”
He said "no" several times in a row, but the following words were choked for a moment and he started coughing violently.
Mao Zixiao didn't even bother to eat when he saw this.
