Chapter 1,470 Loyal Guard, Life and Death in a Moment
Chapter 1472 Loyal guard, a moment of life and death
The post house where the Northern Qi envoy was temporarily staying was now surrounded by a large army of 2,000 elite troops and a hundred tiger guards.
It was Kyoto garrison Ye Chong who led the army to besiege the post house. In fact, he only received the order from Emperor Qing in the early morning of this morning.
When he learned what he was going to do, his face turned pale with fright. When it came to the people in Kyoto that he dared not offend the most, Duke Zhou Chen was definitely among the top three, but facing Emperor Qing's
Looking at him, he could only bite the bullet and agree.
It was because he agreed that he realized that he had no way out and could only go one way to the end.
It was precisely because of this that he launched a ruthless attack on the post house where the Northern Qi mission was located, just to capture the Northern Qi princess alive.
He started the attack at the time promised by Emperor Qing, but after so much time, two thousand elites plus the 18th-grade Tiger Guard failed to capture the post house.
Because the Northern Qi Posthouse originally had five hundred elites from the Northern Qi Dynasty. These elites were specially given to Zhan Pianpian as guards by the young emperor of the Northern Qi Dynasty. They were also the cards of the Northern Qi Dynasty. However, Zhan Doudou himself did not expect that these elites would be effective so quickly.
.
Without the desperate protection of these people, Zhan Pianpian might have been captured.
But even so, under the attack of the Qingguo army, even if they were on the defensive side, they still suffered heavy losses. In a short period of time, only two hundred of the five hundred elites were left.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, a group of men in black rushed into the army, just like chopping melons and vegetables, cutting the Qing army into pieces. It was the Tiger Guards who took action to stop this group of men in black.
This group of men in black is not a secret in the eyes of the major forces in Kyoto. They all know that they are the Thirty-Six Constellations under Zhou Chen.
But this time there were obviously not just thirty-six people, but about a hundred people. The most powerful one was one of the sword masters. Even if seven or eight Tiger Guards surrounded him, he was no match for him. He was definitely at the ninth level.
Swordsman.
It was only under the leadership of this ninth-grade swordsman that this group of star guards broke through the siege of the imperial army and rushed into the post house.
Of the two thousand elites, after a short period of fighting, only less than fifteen hundred people were left, which made Ye Chong's expression extremely ugly.
At this moment, he really wanted to dispatch more troops. As long as a few thousand more people came, he could easily kill them all.
But the problem is that although he is the garrison of Kyoto, he has no decree. Even he has no power to deploy troops at will.
"Sir, how about we still use military crossbows?"
One of his generals, seeing that he could not attack for a long time, suggested to Ye Zhong.
Ye Chong looked ugly. The order given by Emperor Qing to him was to capture the Princess of Northern Qi alive, but if they used a crossbow, they could not guarantee the life of the Princess of Northern Qi.
But this hesitation only lasted for a moment, and he soon said with a ferocious expression: "Use the military crossbow, the archers are ready, use the military crossbow."
The reason why the army is stronger than those warriors is that they have coordination and tactics. If they are equipped with highly lethal crossbows, it will definitely be fatal to ordinary warriors.
At this point, he no longer cared so much. Emperor Qing had told him that he would capture the eldest princess of Northern Qi alive, but he also said that if things couldn't be done, he could also kill her.
Anyway, they have already taken action. There are people on Zhou Chen's side to deal with it. As for Northern Qi, that is something that Emperor Qing has to consider. He is just the person who executes the order and does not need to think so much.
In the post house, Zhan Pianpian, who was dressed in a bright red phoenix crown and garland, was protected by a group of people. She had never been very courageous, but at this moment, she did not show a panicked look. Instead, she was unusually calm and cooperated with the guards.
It's just that her expression is very ugly and her brows are furrowed. She is just a little naive, but not stupid.
She knew very well that Zhou Chen had not shown up since the posthouse had been besieged, so she must have been in danger.
She is not afraid, because she has already prepared the worst in her heart. She is Zhou Chen's fiancée and the princess of the Daqi royal family. Even in the face of danger and death, she must not be embarrassed, even if it means death.
Also die with dignity.
"You must be fine."
Suddenly, crossbow arrows were fired one after another. Although everyone was prepared, the crossbow arrows were extremely lethal. Many people were still injured in the wave, and the situation suddenly became even worse.
"Protect His Highness."
Whether it is the escorting Northern Qi soldiers, or the thirty-six constellations and seventy-two evil spirits of the star guards, they are all fighting to protect Pian Pian regardless of everything and risking their own lives.
Zhan Pianpian was surrounded by everyone and pursed her lips. She was powerless and could only be protected by others at this time. Moreover, at this time, whatever she said was feeble and she could only remain silent.
Causing chaos to everyone.
…………
"Master, take the sword!"
Just when Emperor Qing roared again for Ye Liuyun and the temple envoy to rush, suddenly a man covered in blood rushed not far away and shouted loudly.
A sword radiating cold light was thrown towards him. When Emperor Qing saw this, he immediately shouted: "Stop him."
Ye Liuyun didn't need Emperor Qing to call him, he knew what to do, and immediately rushed over to stop Zhou Chen from catching the sword, but Zhou Chen's reaction was faster than him, catching the sword one step faster than Ye Liuyun, and then facing Ye Liuyun.
hack.
A sword energy struck Ye Liuyun, and Ye Liuyun had no choice but to fly back and avoid the sword.
The sword energy passed by Ye Liuyun, leaving a deep sword mark on the ground.
Seeing Zhou Chen with the sword in his hand, Emperor Qing became furious and slapped the guard who handed Zhou Chen the sword with his palm.
The guard was only of the eighth grade, so how could he withstand Emperor Qing's attack? His body instantly turned into blood mist, and Zhou Chen had no time to save him.
Zhou Chen took a deep breath, and a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes. Star Guards are his most trusted and valued subordinates, but there are still many guards left by the old man in the Zhou Mansion. They may not be as talented and powerful as Star Guards, but
His loyalty to Zhou Chen is no worse than that of Xingwei.
The person who gave him the sword was named Jia Shi, who was considered one of the most powerful people among the guards. He came to give Zhou Chen the sword, obviously with the determination to die.
Zhou Chen suppressed his anger in his heart. Anger was useless at this time. He needed to stay rational. Even though he now had a sword in his hand and his combat power soared, he still had no chance of winning against the three great masters.
But even so, Zhou Chen's combat effectiveness changes dramatically with or without a sword in his hand.
"bring it on!"
…………
"Madman, madman..."
The aloof Emperor Qing looked at Zhou Chen in panic like a frightened horse.
As the emperor of the Qing Kingdom and the leader of a country, there were not many things that could make him lose his composure, but today he kept losing his composure in front of Zhou Chen.
Not to mention Emperor Qing, even Ye Liuyun, who had always been calm and calm, was breathing heavily and looking horrified at this time.
In the center of the street, Zhou Chen was still surrounded by three people. The shops and houses of hundreds of feet around him had all collapsed and were in a mess. Apart from the four of them, no one could be seen around him.
Emperor Qing and Ye Liuyun were both seriously injured at this time. Half of Ye Liuyun's face was still bleeding, and he also had multiple sword wounds on his body, looking extremely embarrassed.
Emperor Qing is no better than Ye Liuyun. Although he tries his best to avoid rushing in front when fighting, Zhou Chen always regards him as the first target of attack. Sometimes, even if he resists the attack, he has to exchange injuries with him.
, which made him extremely uncomfortable.
It is a huge joke that the three great masters had the fighting power to beat Zhou Chen like this.
In the final analysis, it was because the three of them didn't get along at all, Emperor Qing was cowardly, and Ye Liuyun left some room.
The temple messenger seemed to be the most effective, but in fact, during the melee, he had no cooperation with Emperor Qing and Ye Liuyun at all, and he had no true energy. Even with his strength and movement speed, in these aspects, Zhou
Chen is not bad either. Maybe Zhou Chen is not as durable as his robot body, but in a short period of time, Zhou Chen can still avoid most of his attacks with his strong perception.
At this time, it also reflects the importance of Zhou Chen's physical fitness, which is over fifty points and nearly sixty points.
His physical fitness far exceeds that of Emperor Qing and Ye Liuyun. With the same injury, Zhou Chen may only be slightly injured, but the two of them are definitely much more serious.
That is to say, relying on his strong physical fitness, superb swordsmanship and body skills, he was able to endure until now under the encirclement and suppression of the three great masters who were not united.
But after fighting for such a long time, he was injured in many places, and his body was almost unable to bear it. Multiple bursts of true energy, forcibly absorbing the "vital energy of heaven and earth" to restore himself, caused the meridians in his body to rupture to varying degrees.
The Grand Master is otherworldly, but he still does not get rid of human limitations. He will still be injured and his body will collapse. Zhou Chen relies on his powerful control of Qi to face the siege of the three Grand Masters and remain undefeated.
But his power is limited after all.
Except for the lack of emotion from the temple messenger, both Emperor Qing and Ye Liuyun were frightened.
Especially Ye Liuyun, who had fought against Zhou Chen, was deeply touched. Only at this moment did he understand how much Zhou Chen had betrayed him in the battle with Zhou Chen in Jiangnan.
If Zhou Chen had fought him like this at that time, he would have died under Zhou Chen's sword in less than two hours.
This is an admirable opponent, but his eyes become sharper. The more powerful Zhou Chen is, the less likely he is to let Zhou Chen leave alive, otherwise it will be a disaster for him and the Ye family.
Previously, he was forced to take action against Zhou Chen due to the threat from Emperor Qing, but he still had some leeway and deliberately exposed himself on the way to Kyoto.
But now, although he does not regret his previous actions, he has become more determined to kill.
Zhou Chen cannot be allowed to live!
Emperor Qing also had this idea, and Emperor Qing was even stronger than him. It was this belief that made Emperor Qing understand that if he didn't risk his life to kill Zhou Chen at this time, he would have trouble sleeping and eating in the future.
"kill!"
Emperor Qing, who was not timid, relied on his royal energy to actually fight very strong. Coupled with the cooperation of Ye Liuyun and the temple envoy, the final decisive battle came.
"boom!"
…………
"boom!"
Zhou Chen's body hit the deep pit on the ground heavily, and his breath diminished to almost nothing. Not far away from him, the sword Zhan Doudou gave him had only the hilt left, and the sword body had already disappeared.
It broke into pieces, and I don't know where they landed.
The temple envoy flashed and quickly disappeared, leaving only Emperor Qing and Ye Liuyun at the scene.
Emperor Qing and Ye Liuyun were both extremely embarrassed. They tried their best to defeat Zhou Chen.
Liu Yun's hands broke many bones in Zhou Chen's body, but Zhou Chen could still fight to the death. Even as an opponent, Ye Liuyun admired Zhou Chen endlessly. At this time, Zhou Chen looked like this, and he did not add insult to injury at all.
the meaning of.
But Emperor Qing was different. He looked at Zhou Chen, who was lying limply and unable to get up, with a ferocious face, his eyes filled with joy.
The last blow just now was made by him. Crossing half the lake with one finger was his special skill. He hit Zhou Chen head-on. This blow contained half of his life's cultivation. In just one blow, Zhou Chen's whole body was completely destroyed.
The veins are all broken.
The tendons and veins were shattered, and half of the bones in his body were broken and shattered. A normal person would have died several times, but Zhou Chen was stunned to still have a breath left.
Emperor Qing looked down at Zhou Chen who fell to the ground like a dead fish, and his heart felt extremely happy. He had done so much just for this moment.
"Zhou Chen, this is the result of your disrespect for me. If you can understand and be loyal to me, the whole world will belong to our kings and ministers. But as for you, you hold on to your own force, have no respect for the king's laws, and disrespect the royal family, and you have ended up now.
This fate is your own fault."
There was almost no movement in Zhou Chen's body, but he could still hear with his ears, but he was too lazy to listen to Emperor Qing's arrogant and proud words and closed his heavy eyelids.
He was seriously injured, to be precise, he was on the verge of death. Even if he was a great master, there was no way he could be saved. If this continued, he would die soon.
This was also an unprecedented serious injury he had suffered, but at this moment he did not feel any fear or sadness, instead he was unusually calm.
He is afraid of death, more than 99% of people in the world. He is calm now, not because he is not afraid of death, but because he knows that he will not die. Even if he 'dies', there is still a chance to start over, so
He is no longer afraid.
Emperor Qing felt even more unhappy when he saw Zhou Chen was indifferent.
"You've come to this point and you still pretend not to care. That's what I can't stand the most about you."
Zhou Chen's ignorance was what made him the most angry.
"You won't die so soon. I won't kill you now. If you wait a little longer, your woman, the princess of Northern Qi and that prostitute will be sent over. I will tear your arrogance to pieces and kill you in the most cruel way."
I killed you and let you die with regrets, this is the punishment I give you."
Facing Emperor Qing's provocative threat, Zhou Chen remained indifferent, but his mind had already communicated with the system.
When I broke through the Grand Master before, there were still two points left. Whether I could survive this time, these two attribute points would play a crucial role.
