Because he wanted to kill the emperor, he chose this way to get the first place in the martial arts examination, in exchange for such an opportunity to get the closest to the emperor of the Western Zhou Dynasty!

Although it is said that with Xia Fan's own ability, infiltrating the palace and assassinating him is not without a chance of success. But the probability of success is pitiful after all.

Even if the security in the palace of the Western Zhou Dynasty was far less stringent than that of the Great Qian Dynasty, it was definitely not something that he could break into by breaking through the realm of the Martial King at present.

No matter how unscrupulous the Black Hand Killer's ability to assassinate is against the sky, it has its limits after all.

Xia Fan didn't make a move at the first time, and after getting up with all the Wujinshi, he quietly made a move that was no different from other Wujinshi: his body stood straight, his hands naturally drooped, and he bowed his head slightly, looking like he was listening to the hadith.

I have been listening to the eunuch beside me reciting the extremely long holy decree, and then Xia Fan and the second and third places in this examination walked forward under the eunuch's singing.

Halfway up the stairs, stand still at the platform in the middle.

At this time, the distance between Xia Fan and the Western Zhou Emperor was only about six meters!

The guards standing on both sides of the Western Zhou Emperor also put their hands on the hilt of the knife at their waists.

It's not that there is any suspicion of Xia Fan and the others, it's just an instinctive habit.

Whenever someone is in such a position from the emperor, these guards will react subtly accordingly, even if there has never been an emperor who has been assassinated on this hall for hundreds of years, but what should be done must be done.

It's just that in Xia Fan's perception, although these guards are instinctively ready to deal with it, their spirits are still in an extremely lax state.

After all, no one would have guessed in advance that among the top three candidates in the martial arts examination, someone would want to assassinate the emperor.

And the reason why Xia Fan didn't do it was precisely to wait for such an opportunity.

The top three in the examination have the glory that can be closest to the emperor, and above this hall, they will be allowed to come directly to the imperial steps in front of the emperor, waiting for the praise and encouragement from the emperor himself, and then they will leave the main hall and conduct the final palace examination on the martial arts arena outside the hall.

Listening to the loud but vague voice of the emperor in front of him, Xia Fan had quietly adjusted the state of his entire body.

As the emperor's voice fell, Xia Fan and the three of them bowed down to thank him, and when the other two began to turn around and prepare to walk down the imperial steps, Xia Fan's turning motion seemed to be half a beat slower than the other two.

At this time, the process of facing the monarch was over, and the guards standing on both sides of the emperor had already put back the hands that were originally placed on the hilt of the sword, and even the emperor himself, who was sitting on the dragon chair, also took his attention away from Xia Fan and the three of them, and began to think about other things in his mind.

After all, he is the emperor, and he has every opportunity every day, and he really can't be idle for a moment.

But at this time, Xia Fan moved!

The body that had just turned less than half of it turned into a charged action, and the whole person moved like a rabbit, and only an afterimage remained in the original standing position!

I have to say that the guards beside the Western Zhou Emperor are indeed well-trained.

There were a total of four guards close to the emperor's sides, and each of them had the power of the Martial Emperor level!

This is the real personal security force that always follows the emperor's side, and among all the guards in the entire palace, there are only thirteen people in total, divided into three shifts, four people in each shift, one person is mobile, and each squad only guards the emperor for four hours, so as to ensure that in the process of carrying out the protection task, every minute and every second can be in a state of absolute high vigilance.

It will not be because it has been too long, and there will be slackness in physiological instinct.

However, after all, there has been no assassination of the emperor for hundreds of years.

No matter how vigilant you are, when faced with a situation that may not have any problems in your lifetime, you will inevitably relax slightly.

Although this relaxation is not obvious, even the guards themselves are not aware of it, and if something unexpected happens, this relaxation will not have much effect on the guards, with the ability of these guards, they only need to give them a little time to adjust their state perfectly.

But at this moment...... Xia Fan is too close to the Emperor of the Western Zhou Dynasty!

At a distance of only six meters, with Xia Fan's speed, such a sudden attack was launched, and the moment it rushed in front of the emperor, it was completely beyond the limit of what the human body could react!

Unless he crossed the difference between immortals and reached the realm of saints, then he could still form an effective block to Xia Fan's surprise attack without losing the opportunity.

Otherwise, if you don't intercept it at the first time, even if it's just a momentary delay, it will doom you to an irreparable result!

Within ten steps, everyone is the enemy country!

Xia Fan rushed to the dragon chair with an expressionless face, and the shocked look of the old emperor that had not yet been fully displayed met his eyes.

A pitch-black and dark stabbing blade appeared in Xia Fan's hand, and then stabbed into the heart of the old emperor without a single shot!

At the same time as the thorn blade appeared, Xia Fan's vitality had already crossed into it, and as the thorn blade pierced the old emperor's heart, the vitality attached to the thorn blade also completely burst out, and the old emperor's heart was crushed in an instant!

With one blow, Xia Fan's figure did not pause, and while stabbing the dagger into the heart of the old emperor, the whole person had already reversed his force and rushed directly towards the more than 200 martial artists in the main hall.

It was only at this time that the waist knives of the four guards beside the old emperor were late!

And this is already the fastest reaction of the four Praetorian guards!

Seeing the old emperor being stabbed into the body with a stabbing blade, the four guards were flawed, and under the close protection of themselves and others, the emperor was directly killed on the spot, which was simply unbearable shame for them!

Whatever fate the Assassins would end, they would inevitably be buried with them, and that was a sure thing.

The four of them had no other thoughts at all at this time, only hoping to arrest the assassin on the spot, and try to make up for their mistakes as much as possible, so that their families would not be implicated.

Otherwise...... Even if the four of them were directly exterminated by the Nine Clans, they really had nothing to say.

But just when the four guards roared and were about to rush towards Xia Fan, who was flying upside down, Xia Fan was flying upside down, but suddenly there were three more balls in his hand.

Immediately after that, the three balls were directly smashed to the ground by Xia Fan, and with a loud bang like an explosion, a large cloud of white fog instantly filled the entire hall!

Everyone's eyes suddenly couldn't see their fingers, and those civil officials were directly frightened by the sound of the explosion and fell to the ground.

Even the military attache and those who came with Xia Fan were still in a hurry because of Xia Fan's actions, and they only had time to react from the beginning to the end.

With their sight completely obscured by the white fog, those military attachés and martial artists had just reacted to what was happening in front of their eyes!
