The cold wind blew slightly, the lone star hung in the sky, and the earth fell into endless darkness. Under the Taichu City, the light of the star torch lit up, and the defenders opened the city gate to let them go.
Emperor Chu led the Yulin Army, Zhou Yu, Qi Jiguang, and Zhang Shun into the city. He ordered the three generals to be sent to the military doctor for treatment, and he galloped towards the palace alone.
It was late at night and the long street was empty. The rumble of horse hooves echoed under the night sky. When there was still a street away from the palace, a long neigh of a horse pierced the sky.
Under the dim light, the Molong rose into the sky to warn Emperor Chu that there was danger ahead. The Molong was psychic, and would sense in advance every time danger came.
Emperor Chu reined in his horse, jumped into the air, and held Mo Long steady under his crotch. He looked straight ahead. Under the dim light of torches, nearly a hundred assassins in black emerged from all directions.
On the long street, on the top of the building, shadowy assassins stormed over, their bright long swords emitting bright and dazzling silver light. Emperor Chu sat on his horse, as steady as Mount Tai, without any panic.
Their movements are weird and their shapes are like ghosts. Although they are not as good as Wei Yixiao, Black Spider, and Tian Boguang, they are still top-notch masters. Emperor Chu knows where they come from without having to guess.
It just made Emperor Chu feel a little surprised. Could it be that someone had been spying on him? Otherwise, only a quarter of an hour after entering the city, their interception and killing appeared.
Suddenly raising his head, Emperor Chu saw a familiar figure. It was Madam Ye, Mr. Bizhu, whom he met in the sky over Prince Shang's Mansion that day.
Obviously, these people were following her orders. Under the night wind, the black robes roared in the wind. Emperor Chu glanced at the beautiful figure on the top of the building, picked up the reins and galloped forward again, completely overcoming the surging people in front of him.
The incoming assassin ignored him.
Huh~
Huh~
Suddenly, hundreds of assassins formed a formation on the long street, and the sword light shot straight to the top of the clouds, illuminating the sky like daylight. Emperor Chu narrowed his eyes slightly and murmured to himself:
"Three Thousand Sword Formation?"
Unexpectedly, the formation of hundreds of assassins turned out to be so terrifying. They were obviously prepared. When the sea of swords rose into the sky, three figures appeared in front of Emperor Chu's mount.
Hou Zhu, the iron gall god, ignored him and invited the Lord of the Moon Palace. Cao Zhengchun stood proudly in front of Emperor Chu. The vast and majestic true energy burst out from his figure, and three groups of powerful energy barriers appeared, forming a wall of true energy.
"My subordinates came late to escort me, which frightened my emperor."
"Marquis Shen, clear out these assassins. I will go back to the palace to rest first!"
Zhu Wuwang unleashed the indestructible magic power of the Vajra, and his whole body shimmered with golden light. He followed the sound and violently moved forward. The sword light bursting out from the three thousand sword array touched his body, and instantly turned into broken debris, causing huge ripples and moving toward him.
It flew onto the buildings on both sides of the long street.
Boom~
Boom~
Emperor Chu left amid the sound of explosions. Lord Tiedan possessed the indestructible power of the Vajra and the power of absorbing stars. He could kill hundreds of assassins without worrying about anyone escaping.
Bang~
Bang~
A miserable wailing could be heard faintly in my ears, and the long street seemed to turn into a Shura field at this moment.
And Lord Tietan was the culprit behind all this.
The blood stained his clothes red, but he still didn't notice it. The golden light on his arms was overwhelming, he let out a low roar, punched out his fists, and two golden dragons rushed forward.
Emperor Chu was unaware of everything that happened on the long street. Anyway, with the help of Tie Dan Shenhou, Yao Yue, and Cao Zhengchun, none of the assassins could leave alive.
The Emperor of Chu was alone and leisurely, galloping towards the palace in the wind, with a smile on his lips as he went forward.
"How persistent!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a beautiful shadow floated down from the sky, like an elf in the dark night, light and elegant, and suddenly appeared on the long street a hundred meters away from Emperor Chu.
"Emperor Chu, take action, I will make your death painless!"
Lord Bizhu stands on the long street, with green flames rising from his beautiful silhouette. His voice is like judgment, and his words determine life and death.
"Taiyin Zhenhuo?"
Mrs. Ye Bizhu finally brought a surprise to Emperor Chu. He didn't expect that she had the true fire of Taiyin hidden in her body. Emperor Chu didn't finish reading her information that night. He only knew that she was Daji's master, and her cultivation level reached half a step of the Martial God.
.
"Emperor Chu is very knowledgeable, and he actually knows Taiyin True Fire!"
"I know that Emperor Chu has three divine fires, and is protected by two divine beasts, as well as the forbidden power. It is indeed not easy to kill you."
"But I have already prepared, and I will take your life tonight!"
Hearing Bizhujun's voice, Emperor Chu was surprised again, as if he had no secrets in front of her.
"Taiyin True Fire, Devour!"
The beautiful figure of Bizhu Jun rushed forward, and the real fire behind him condensed into a transparent dragon's shadow, soaring in the sky and swallowing Emperor Chu.
Taiyin True Fire is the source of extreme yin, a fire that violates regulations. Although it is a flame, it is extremely cold. A ray of it can freeze the heaven and earth. Its flames are specially targeted at the soul, soul and other nihilistic spiritual bodies, and its power is infinite.
Hoho~
Hoho~
The sound shook the sky and swept through the world. Emperor Chu stared at the devouring Taiyin True Fire. His figure rose from Molong's back, stepped forward and landed on the ground.
Suddenly.
The three figures lingered around him, resisting the devouring of Taiyin's true fire. The source of extreme yin was truly terrifying. Even if there were three divine fires blocking it, Emperor Chu would still feel the slightest bit of coldness deep into his bones from time to time.
"Bright Beast, go to battle!"
As Bizhujun's soft voice spread, a huge whirlpool appeared in the night sky, and a brilliant light fell from the sky, like the Milky Way falling down, hitting the long street.
Emperor Chu looked at it intently, and a huge snow-white beast appeared in the golden light. It must be the light beast mentioned by Lord Bizhu.
"Master, this is the beast of light. It should be the guardian beast of the Empire of Light. Its cultivation level is far better than that of Xiao Bai and Chi Yue. However, this beast is a bit weird and it should not be its true body."
Bai Hu's voice came through his mind, and Emperor Chu looked stern and asked: "Xiao Bai, if it's not its true body, then it's a clone. Can you and Chi Yue defeat it with a combined blow?"
"It can barely be entangled. As long as the master defeats the woman in front of him, the light beast will naturally disappear."
"So good!"
In an instant, Emperor Chu's eight dragons formed a formation and were released. With the blessing of three divine fires, they pointed at the sword, and a sea of swords fell towards Lord Bizhu.
"Eight dragons protect you?"
"The peak of swordsmanship?"
Mr. Bizhu couldn't believe his eyes. In the past, Mrs. Guiming sent back the news that Emperor Chu was only protected by six dragons. In just a short period of time, he once again had an unexpected encounter, actually reaching the formation of eight dragons.
In the whole world, Emperor Chu is probably the only one with such strength.
With a flick of his finger, he destroyed the world and destroyed the world.
The beautiful figure of Bizhu Jun retreated backwards, and the bright beast rushed forward and attacked Emperor Chu. At this moment, Xiaobai and Chiyue appeared and blocked the bright beast.
Emperor Chu soared into the air, his arms wide open, and the dragon shadow embroidered on the shirt behind his back was lifelike under the light of the fire, as if he would soar up at any moment.
"The spiritual power of fire!"
As Emperor Chu's majestic voice sounded, Lord Bizhu was shocked. He was stunned and trembling: "Magician, how is this possible? How can there be a magician on the Eastern Continent?"
Emperor Chu ignored Mr. Bizhu's panic. With the release of the spiritual power of fire, vines formed from divine fire appeared in all directions on the long street. They were wrapped around Mr. Bizhu as fast as lightning.
Shocking.
Extremely shocking!
Bizhujun fell into shock and forgot that she was in danger. When the flaming vines wrapped around her body, she remembered to fight back.
Unfortunately, it was too late, the vines bound her, and even with the real fire of Taiyin to resist, the burning flames made her miserable.
Boom~
Boom~
Emperor Chu did not expect that the magic given to him by Yang Yuhuan was so powerful. He thought that Lord Bizhu would definitely die, but suddenly there were two loud explosions and the vine-wrapped Lord Bizhu disappeared.
"escape?"
Bizhujun has too much information about her. If she is allowed to escape, she will undoubtedly let the tiger go back to the mountain, so tonight must avoid future troubles.
Huh~
Emperor Chu turned on the system scan, and saw the figure floating on Mo Long's back. He raised the reins and rode in pursuit. In about a quarter of an hour, Mo Long appeared outside the Shang Prince's Mansion.
"Are you here to seek protection from your apprentice?"
Emperor Chu smiled sadly. When did Prince Shang's Mansion become a hiding place for assassins? He jumped off his horse, restrained his breath, and stepped forward to the outside of the Mansion.
At midnight, the guards in the Shang Palace were so sleepy that they did not even notice the arrival of Emperor Chu in the city.
They slept so soundly, and neither the loud noise nor the sound of horse hooves on the long street could wake them up. When Emperor Chu appeared in front of the mansion, a guard opened his eyes faintly, suddenly rose up, and raised his hand to lift the man who had almost fallen to the ground.
Helmet righting.
"Your Majesty, please see your Majesty!"
The guard had already been frightened out of his mind, and a trembling voice sounded. Following the sound, the other three people stood up and crawled, and they all raised their fists and saluted.
The Emperor of Chu did not embarrass them and ordered the guards to inform Princess Shang that an assassin had sneaked into the house.
The four people opened the door of the mansion and signaled Emperor Chu to enter. One of them quickly ran towards the mansion on foot, staggering and almost falling to the ground.
After about a stick of incense, the lights in Prince Shang's palace were brightly lit, and Su Guang, Su Ningxiang, and Su Daji had appeared in the front hall.
When the three of them learned that Emperor Chu had come to the house because of an assassin, they were all frightened. After the three of them bowed and saluted, Emperor Chu asked:
"Princess Shang, have you heard any strange noises in the palace before?"
At midnight, everyone in the house had rested. Lord Bizhu's movements were strange and it was easy to avoid the guards. The reason why Emperor Chu asked was to see how Daji would respond and to see if she knew about Lord Bizhu's assassination.
.
"Back to Your Majesty, I have fallen asleep soundly and didn't notice anything strange!"
Seeing Su Ningxiang's frightened look, Emperor Chu walked out of the hall with his sleeves rolled up and said: "Princess Shang, don't be alarmed. The assassin has been injured by me. In order to ensure your safety, I have the guards in the palace search all the rooms one by one."
Hear the sound.
The guards of Prince Shang's Mansion were all in high spirits. If they could find the assassin, they would be able to make up for their fault. Of course, Su Ningxiang did not dare to disobey Emperor Chu's orders at all.
"Su Bo, take all the guards in the house and search them one by one. You must not let your majesty's assassin escape!"
Su Ningxiang is now Princess Shang, and she knows very well that if the assassin is really hiding in the palace, it may have an impact on Prince Shang.
Once someone makes a fuss about this and charges Prince Shang's palace with colluding with assassins, it will be a disaster.
These were just Su Ningxiang's thoughts. She didn't know that everything was under the control of Emperor Chu, and it would not affect Di Xin's status in Emperor Chu's heart at all.
A little while.
All other rooms in the mansion had been searched, and only Su Ningxiang and Su Daji's rooms were left. The guards did not dare to enter and search rashly.
Su Ningxiang understood the righteousness well and ordered Sub Bo to lead people into her room to search, but nothing was found. Then everyone appeared outside Daji's room.
At this time, Daji's face was expressionless, and there was no trace of nervousness at all. Emperor Chu glanced sideways and couldn't help but secretly praise Daji, who was calm and steady in the face of danger.
"Sister, for the sake of the reputation of Prince Shang's Mansion, let Uncle Fu lead people in to search it!"
"Go for it!"
Daji's light voice sounded, but she did not refuse, which surprised Emperor Chu. The system showed that Mr. Bizhu was in Daji's room. Isn't she afraid of being exposed?
"Your Majesty, Princess, there is no trace of the assassin!"
Subo brought people there and came back, and the answer he gave was that there were no assassins. For a while, Emperor Chu became more and more confused. At this time, Daji said:
"Since there is no trace of the assassin in the palace, could it be that he has left the Shang Prince's Palace?"
In one sentence, he cleared up the Prince Shang's palace, and at the same time told Emperor Chu that the assassin had escaped and should be pursued quickly.
"Your Majesty, the entire government has been searched, but no trace of the assassin has been found. Would you like me to send someone to notify General Xue and come to escort him back to the palace?"
"Princess Shang is interested!"
"I will return to the palace on my own!"
Emperor Chu folded his sleeves and walked towards the outside of Prince Shang's Mansion. As he walked, he checked the information coming from the system and murmured to himself: "Invisibility?"
Lord Bizhu mastered the art of invisibility, so it was no wonder that he could evade the search of the guards without being noticed. However, at this point, Emperor Chu had no choice but to leave Prince Shang's Mansion first.
Su Ningxiang and Su Guang personally sent Emperor Chu to the house. At this moment, Xue Rengui, Cao Zhengchun, Tiedan Shenhou, Yao Yue and others all appeared outside the house.
"Rengui, withdraw all three armies. The assassin is not in Prince Shang's palace. How can Princess Shang sleep after such a huge battle?"
"Zhengchun, Shenhou, Yaoyue, I am worried that the assassin will come back again. Tonight, the three of you will work hard and stay outside the Prince Shang's palace. Don't let the assassin get close to the palace."
Emperor Chu's majestic voice sounded, and he stepped forward to convey the message to the three Shenhou people. He jumped on the horse's back, reined the horse back and disappeared down the long street.
Zhu ignored, invited Yue, and Cao Zhengchun to know that the assassin was hiding in Daji's room. Emperor Chu asked them not to alert the enemy, but to track the assassin's final hiding place.
The Prince Shang's Mansion was not far from the palace. Emperor Chu rode his horse and appeared outside the palace in just one stick of incense. After entering the palace, he came to the outside of Tianxiang Palace and found four maids standing outside the palace.
Emperor Chu knew that all this was arranged by Cao Zhengchun. The four girls suddenly saw Emperor Chu appearing and stepped forward to stop him.
"Who are you to dare to barge into this important palace?"
Cao Zhengchun carefully arranged for the four girls to come and serve the Zhao sisters, but did not let them look at the portrait of Emperor Chu, so the four girls did not know Emperor Chu at all.
"You don't even know me?"
The four women had some cultivation skills and were already gearing up to attack Emperor Chu.
"His Majesty?"
When the four girls saw Emperor Chu calling himself "I", they all looked frightened, but they still did not relax their vigilance. At that time, one of the maids cleverly turned around and returned to the outside of the palace.
"Empress, Your Majesty is back!"
When Zhao Feiyan and Zhao Hede heard the voices of the guards outside the palace, they got up and came to the palace entrance with their clothes on. In the past few days when Emperor Chu was not in the palace, the two women had trouble sleeping at night. They were always worried that someone would sneak into the palace.
When he heard that Emperor Chu had returned, he was overjoyed. He opened the palace door and saw Emperor Chu standing not far away. Zhao Feiyan's soft voice sounded:
"Spring, summer, autumn and winter, His Majesty is back, why don't you hurry up and prepare your toiletries!"
The four girls were named Spring, Summer, Qiu and Dong. Although they blocked Emperor Chu, Zhao Feiyan did not reprimand him. He only let them go down to prepare toiletries. In fact, he was also rescuing the four girls.
"Your Majesty, it's late at night and the wind is biting, please go to the palace to relax!"
Hearing the voices of the two women, Emperor Chu strode forward and entered the Tianxiang Palace. Zhao Feiyan and Zhao Hede threw themselves into the arms of Emperor Chu one after another. (To be continued)
