"This woman is Princess Li, brothers, kill her!" At this time, the leader looked excited when he saw Yun Ruoyue.
As he spoke, the sword in his hand was already stabbing Yun Ruoyue.
Soon enough, Chu Xuanchen flew over quickly and stopped the men in black as they stepped forward.
As the sword flowers were dancing, the Longxuan Sword in Chu Xuanchen's hand was already attacking the assassin. Waves of sharp sword energy spread out, and several men in black were knocked to the ground by him.
He immediately protected Yun Ruoyue and said: "Yue'er, be careful!"
"Well, you too." Yun Ruoyue said.
At this time, the assassin leader said again: "Everyone, don't worry about anyone, concentrate on killing Yun Ruoyue!"
"Yes!" the others said, and collectively attacked Yun Ruoyue with their power.
Seeing the men in black attacking overwhelmingly, Chu Xuanchen protected Yun Ruoyue on his body. He jumped forward again and swung the Longxuan Sword sharply in his hand. Waves of sword energy came overwhelmingly towards the assassin, shocking him.
Several assassins fell to the ground on the spot.
At this time, more guards rushed over.
As soon as the guards arrived, they joined the team to deal with the assassins.
With more and more helpers, the assassins are gradually exhausted, and each one of them is at the end of his strength.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the leader in black hurriedly said: "No, there are too many people on the other side. Brothers, let's retreat first."
"Want to leave? Take your life!" Chu Xuanchen said, the sword in his hand flew sharply, and killed several more assassins.
The assassin leader looked at Chu Xuanchen with fear, and then glanced at Yun Ruoyue unwillingly. It seemed that their mission today was going to fail!
He gritted his teeth and sighed, and suddenly threw a smoke bomb at Chu Xuanchen.
Just a "bang" sound was heard, and the smoke bomb exploded on the ground.
A burst of thick smoke hit, and everyone immediately covered their noses with their sleeves.
After the thick smoke dissipated, Chu Xuanchen found that the leader had run away, leaving only a few assassins fighting.
He immediately said: "Moli, hurry up and lead the people to chase!"
"Yes, Your Majesty." After Moli said that, he led a group of people to chase the leader.
At this time, Chu Xuanchen looked at the remaining assassins and said in a deep voice: "Mo Zhu, let them live, I will live!"
He wanted to see who wanted to assassinate Yue'er.
"Yes." Mo Zhu said.
After he finished speaking, he led his guards to attack, controlled the assassins in a few strokes, and put the sword on their necks.
After controlling these assassins, Mo Zhu hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, all the assassins are under control!"
Chu Xuanchen nodded, and then walked over with Yun Ruoyue.
After walking over, he said: "Take off their masks."
"Yes." After Mo Zhu said this, with a wave of his hand, the guards pulled the scarves off the faces of the assassins.
Chu Xuanchen looked over and found that these assassins all looked ordinary. They were all wearing black clothes. He couldn't tell who they were for the moment.
He glanced at the assassin with a cold look in his eyes, "Tell me, who sent you here?"
One of the assassins widened his eyes and said: "King Li, you have given up on this idea. We would rather die than betray our master!"
As he spoke, he gritted his teeth coldly, and a wisp of poisonous blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth.
The other assassins also gritted their teeth, then fell to the ground with wide eyes.
Yun Ruoyue said hurriedly: "No, they had poisonous packets hidden in their mouths, and they all bit the poison and committed suicide!"
Chu Xuanchen stared coldly, he didn't expect this group of assassins to be so loyal. It seems that the people behind this are definitely not simple.
At this time, Mo Zhu quickly checked the assassin's breathing, and then said in disappointment: "My lord, they are all dead!"
Chu Xuanchen took a deep breath and said: "Mo Zhu, please check them carefully to see if there is anything that represents their identity."
"Yes." Mo Zhu said, and he and the guards began to examine the bodies of these assassins.
After checking for a while, he shook his head helplessly, "My lord, there is nothing on them except these scimitars."
Chu Xuanchen frowned, "Nothing? It seems that these assassins don't want people to know their identities."
At this time, Yun Ruoyue suddenly squatted down and carefully inspected the assassin.
While checking, she pondered: "Your Majesty, do you think they are the same martial arts people sent by the Queen last time?"
Chu Xuanchen shook his head and said: "Probably not. The tactics of this group of people are very strange. They are well-trained, have exquisite coordination, have strong team fighting capabilities, and are extremely loyal. They are not like ordinary martial arts people."
Suddenly, Yun Ruoyue said: "Your Majesty, come and see, most of these people's left ears have been pierced, which means they have worn earrings."
"What?" Chu Xuanchen quickly squatted down and saw that several assassins had small piercings in their left ears.
He immediately said: "Men in Chu generally don't wear earrings. Only some foreigners have this custom."
"Men wear earrings? How strange! Your Majesty, why do they have this custom?" Mo Zhu scratched his head and asked in confusion.
Chu Xuanchen said: "The wearing of earrings by foreign men is mostly related to their religious beliefs and totems. However, many foreigners have this custom, so I am not sure where they are from!"
As Chu Xuanchen spoke, he suddenly saw a very exquisite knife falling on the ground, and said, "Mo Zhu, is this the knife of those assassins?"
Mo Zhu hurriedly picked up the knife and said: "Your Majesty, this is a waist knife. It is different from the large scimitars used by other assassins. Look at it, it is exquisite and small, and there is no blood on it. It does not look like it is used by assassins for fighting.
Yes. I didn’t see any assassin using this kind of knife just now. It should have been accidentally dropped by an assassin on the ground."
"Show it to me," Chu Xuanchen said.
Mo Zhu quickly handed the knife to Chu Xuanchen.
Chu Xuanchen got the waist knife and observed it carefully.
By the light of the lantern, he saw many strange and mysterious patterns carved on the waist knife, and the handle was decorated with some exquisite agate and silver ornaments.
It doesn't look like a knife, but like an ornament.
Yun Ruoyue saw this and said: "Your Majesty, the pattern on this waist knife is very strange. I wonder who uses it?"
Chu Xuanchen frowned, "I have never seen it before, but the decoration on this sword shows that its owner's status is extraordinary."
"The status is unusual? Could it be that the assassin leader lost it?" Yun Ruoyue said.
Chu Xuanchen nodded, "It's very possible."
"My lord, I'm sorry. My subordinate was incompetent and allowed the assassin to escape!" At this time, a strange voice came from the door.
Chu Xuanchen said calmly: "It doesn't matter, these people are here well prepared and it's not easy to catch them. Just keep sending people to hunt them down."
"Yes." After Moli finished speaking, he patted his chest anxiously when he saw Yun Ruoyue was intact, "My lord, just now these assassins sneaked into the princess's room first, and then specially watched the princess to attack. Could it be that their target
