Volume 1 Hades' Wrath Chapter 1 Blazing Killer Chapter 37 The Man Under the Moon
"Ladies and gentlemen, I know that you have suffered here for many days, yet your families have also suffered greatly, and they have been forced by foreigners to put your safety at risk, for the purpose of ...... It's to assassinate the current king of the Heavenly Empire. β
As soon as these words came out, everyone was full of fear, that was the king, and assassinating the king was a big crime for the nine clans!
Doesn't that mean they're still dead?
Seeing that everyone was panicking, Xiao Yuchen hurriedly raised his voice and said, "Everyone, it's too early to give up at this moment! As far as I know, the assassination will be carried out on the emperor's fiftieth birthday, and there are still three days left before that day! We still have a chance. β
"Three days ......"
There was a glimmer of hope in the eyes of the family members, and they all looked at him closely, waiting for the rest of the story.
Xiao Yuchen gritted his teeth, the sharp pain in the dantian was always sudden, he frowned, and reluctantly said loudly: "You may have any tokens on you that can show your identity?" β
Everyone was puzzled, but still according to what Xiao Yuchen said, they took out the tokens from their bodies, fortunately, the Blazing Fire Hall did not snatch all their things, almost everyone could take out one, these tokens are varied, or jade pendants, or sachets, or golden hairpins......
Xiao Yuchen put all those tokens together, took off his robe, and wrapped everything up.
Lian Xiaoyu hesitated for a long time before she walked in front of Xiao Yuchen, she spread out her hand and handed a small red bell to Xiao Yuchen, "This is Xiaobai's, I only have this...... Don't lose your ......."
Xiao Yuchen nodded, solemnly took it, put it in the pocket of the collar on his chest, and then knotted the package and carried it on his shoulder.
At this moment, everyone already understood what Xiao Yuchen was going to do.
He was going to Wanhuang City alone to fight for their last hope.
"You can go to Qingxuan Town outside, even Xiaoyu should be quite familiar with the outside, so they will be handed over to you. Also, I have a companion, a woman in leather armor, and I hope you will take care of it for me. Farewell!"
Xiao Yuchen gave a few words, then fastened the thing firmly on his shoulder and turned away.
"Young Hero...... You...... Who is it?"
Someone asked, they thought, they can't do anything about it, at least they should know who saved them.
Xiao Yuchen's footsteps paused slightly, and he tightened the jade sword in his hand, "Xiao Yuchen, a swordsman." β
Xiao Yuchen ...... A swordsman. β
Lian Xiaoyu remembered this name deeply, and she looked at Xiao Yuchen's back until she went out through the iron gate.
There happened to be horses from the Blazing Fire Hall in this Ten Thousand Moon Valley, and without thinking much about it, he immediately fed the horse a Beast Yang Pill, and then jumped up, leaving without looking back.
Even if his belly is on fire, he will do his best to prevent this assassination.
He didn't know why, he just wanted to do it.
That's all.
......
Wanhuang City, an elegant and quiet bamboo forest, along the winding stone road paved with bluestone, there is a four-storey pavilion in the depths of the bamboo forest, built of mahogany, the green tiles are layered, simple and elegant.
The third prince, Nie Zou, who was dressed in white, was standing sullenly on the edge of the fourth-story building, with a sad face.
A beautiful and touching maid took a snow-white down cloak and came to Nie Zou's side and draped it on Nie Zou.
"Your Highness, please forgive the slave and maid for talking too much, it's late autumn, don't catch a cold. β
"It doesn't matter. β
Nie Zou stubbornly took off his cloak, threw it to the maid at will, shook his head and said, "You go down, I'll be calm and calm alone." β
The maid had the heart to persuade her, but she was also stubborn, so she had to put the cloak on the jade square table on the side, and her body was slightly owed, and she reluctantly retreated.
Nie Zou sat down at the square table and quietly recalled these things.
Fan Ji came back a long time ago, and moreover, he also brought back a jaw-dropping news, thousands of people were buried in the Red Silk River!
However, not only that, the three of Yun Qiuchang of the Cloud Dart Bureau also told everything they knew, the mysterious Blazing Fire Palace, the assassination conspiracy, all kinds of news, all kinds of unbelievable.
These...... It was like a 10,000-pound stone, and he was a little out of breath.
It stands to reason that the assassin has no news, and it should be the most appropriate to cancel his birthday, but Nie Zou even fell to his knees, unable to dissuade his father, Nie Junhe.
He remembers the conversation at dusk today.
At that time, they persuaded several times, but Nie Junhe only waved his hand one last time, and said nonchalantly: "In three days, I will live for a full fifty years, and I will reign for thirty years." β
He paused, and then said, "Let me ask you, when the 100,000 iron horsemen of the Flying Snow Country besieged me in Xuanbei City, I and all the soldiers were only more than 10,000 people, ten times the difference, but I was defeated?"
When they heard this, they could only be in awe in their hearts, in that battle, Nie Junhe led the generals to skillfully form a formation, and the momentum was like a bamboo, and the 100,000 flying snow iron horses were completely buried in the Xuanbei Pass.
"Then, I was able to ascend the throne as emperor, and when I faced those 100,000 people, did I escape? Now, I am just some young people who steal chickens and dogs, but you let me avoid them? I ask you, what are your intentions? Do you think I am not strong enough, or are my fists not hard enough?"
These words pierced his heart, and in desperation, Nie Zou had to give up, but the gloom between his eyebrows was difficult to reduce.
"Do you really want to let your father take risks?" Nie Zou frowned and sighed.
He had heard about the Blazing Fire Hall of Longyang Kingdom for a long time, but those two blood-clothed corpses made him even more puzzled.
One body, it turned out to be Zhao Chi, who was the tenth of the top ten heroes of the last Tianchai, he saw those young heroes who were famous in the sky, and later, as time passed, the ten heroes of Tianchai were gradually forgotten, and few people knew where they went.
Unexpectedly, when he saw it again and turned out to be a cold corpse, he couldn't help but sigh, the world is impermanent, but it is really difficult to guess.
"You let me in!"
"Your Royal Highness Princess, please go back, Your Royal Highness is already asleep. β
"What is he sleeping at this time, I have something urgent to find him!
"Your Highness the Princess!"
The noise coming from downstairs made Nie Zou smile helplessly, listening to this familiar voice, it should be the naughty and willful little sister who is here.
Just as he was thinking, a girl in a white velvet robe rushed up to the fourth floor, and the stairs clicked, and when she came up, she found him at a glance and immediately came to him.
The servant girl chased after her and also caught up, Nie Zou waved her hand, and the servant girl went down in panic.
Nie Zou looked up at his playful little sister and said with a smile: "Yixin, what happened?"
"Okay, you still pretend garlic for me!" The thirteenth princess Nie Yixin stepped forward and knocked on Nie Zou's forehead, and said angrily: "You say, did something happen to my father?"
Nie Zou pretended to be weird, looked at Nie Yixin funny, and said, "No, how can something happen to my father, are you having nightmares again?"
Nie Yixin shook his head, "I didn't, don't pull away from the topic, then you say, why doesn't my father see me?"
Nie Zou sighed secretly in his heart, it seems that even his father, who is as mighty as a dragon on weekdays, can't resist the little sister, so he actually hides and disappears.
Even his father can't resist it, how can Nie Zou parry this piece of his heart, the treasure in his palm?
After the kung fu of half-burnt incense, under Nie Yixin's soft grinding and hard bubbles, Nie Zou finally gave in and told her the whole story.
"I said that Sister Zi and Sister Lei didn't come back for so long, it turned out that they had encountered such a dangerous thing...... However, what about the father, it's too risky!" Nie Yixin was so anxious that he immediately shouted to find his father, and it seemed that he was obviously trying to hang himself to force his father to comply.
"Okay, Yixin!" Nie Zou had a headache, "Don't make trouble, on the day of my father's birthday, there will be major martial marquis traveling with me, I heard that Yun Jian Hou has already cultivated in the Eight Heavens, and even the guards are arranged to be strict with precautions, and my father will be fine, you...... Don't make a mess!"
Nie Yixin bit her lip, she looked at Nie Zou with teary eyes, teardrops were circling in her eyes, and she muttered, "What you said is true?"
Nie Zou was the most difficult to resist Nie Yixin's tears, resisted the urge to hold her into his arms to comfort her, and said earnestly: "You can put ten thousand hearts, my good sister, it's not too early, go back and rest quickly, the girl's family doesn't pay attention to rest, it's not good to break your skin." β
Nie Yixin nodded like a chicken pecking rice, "Sister Zi, ...... they?"
"Don't worry, I've already sent someone to investigate, and as soon as I find their traces, I'll go and pick them up. β
Nie Yixin was a little relieved and left sullenly.
"Come on, send the princess back. β
Nie Zou weakly ordered, this sister really tossed him to death, but it made him feel distressed, after all, when he was born, Nie Yixin's mother died.
"Alas...... Hopefully everything is well......"
......
Little by little, time passed.
In the dead of night, there are many people who can't sleep in Wanhuang City.
Yunjian Marquis's Mansion, a tall figure, holding a five-foot long sword, danced alone in the night wind, one move and one style, extremely slow, soft as flowing clouds. After a long time, as soon as the sword was retracted, he stood with his sword in his hand, silently motionless in the moonlight.
Lianfu, a man, dressed in black snake soft armor, holding a slender straight knife, the knife was inserted in the floor tiles on the side, he sat alone on the edge of the stone table, looking in a trance.
Hangun Hou Mansion, there is also a man, he poured a cup of tea, thought about it, the tea was also cold, he poured the herbal tea, filled another cup, after many times, he suddenly turned his head to look, the smile was about to rise, found that there was no one behind him, and finally sighed lonely, and the corners of the raised mouth returned to normal.
In the huge Wanhuang City, there are hundreds of mansions, with such figures, standing alone under the moon.
Sometimes they smile bitterly, sometimes they talk to themselves, and sometimes they practice martial arts alone.
At this time, as if they had made an appointment, they raised their heads one after another, looking at the bleak moon in the courtyard of the mansion far away from each other.
"Wait for me. β
......
In the shadow of the mountain, the horse's hooves trampled, a figure whistled like the wind, and in the air, there was a voiceβ
"Wait for me!"
