Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Assassination of the Emperor

Luo Xiaotian, who was still frightened when he heard the signal, was about to return to the square. At this time, a group of mysterious people wearing iron armor appeared in the alley of the ambush, and the iron armor on their bodies and the swords in their hands were shining in the light of the fire.

These people were the disciples of the assassination.

Luo Xiaotian, who was about to leave, frowned tightly when he saw this, and his eyes were focused on them. After a closer look, it was found that there were only about 20 people in this group, and Chen Anan was not found. This made him feel uneasy, could it be that they had already split into two ways? Where is Chen Anan at this time? He thought of the signal that Yao Qingshu had just suddenly sent, and he chuckled in his heart, and secretly thought: It's not good.

As he pondered, the disciples had stepped into the middle of the encirclement. The black-robed warrior in the lead let out a code, and a few clouds of green smoke fell from the high wall.

The green smoke spread among the disciples, choking them with a cough. After a while, when the smoke cleared, no one was standing in the alley, and all of them fell to the ground.

The black-robed warriors fell down the wall with agility and ropes, binding them hand and foot.

Faced with all this, Luo Xiaotian shook his head helplessly and rushed to the Lantern Festival Square alone.

Just when the "birthday lights" were turned on, a group of mysterious killers in disguise suddenly appeared in the middle of the square. They removed their disguises, revealing a suit of iron armor and black.

Yao Qingshu, who witnessed all this, hurriedly let out the sound of "Shang Yu".

When Luo Xiaotian arrived, the crowd was chaotic, pushing and fleeing, screaming again and again. He walked retrograde in the crowd and met Zhang Ruyue, who was pulling Xiao Yunjian and running out with the crowd.

Luo Xiaotian grabbed her: "Don't run, it's more dangerous outside." Senior brother is here, don't panic. ”

Seeing her senior brother coming, Zhang Ruyue cried out loud and hugged him: "Senior brother, it's too scary, it's full of dead people." ”

"Don't be afraid, follow me!"

Luo Xiaotian pulled up his junior sister, and the three of them ran in the opposite direction of the crowd, going backwards.

There were fewer and fewer people, so he took the two of them to the foot of the city where Yao Qingshu was, and then said to his junior sister: "Senior sister, don't be afraid, senior brother is above you, and I am here." ”

Zhang Ruyue, who was still crying, nodded vigorously.

Then he looked at Xiao Yunjian next to him and said, "You are a man, protect your sister, if she is in danger, you are not allowed to run!" Otherwise, I will tell Sister An An. ”

Xiao Yun saw the thrill just now, and also felt: Although Zhang Ruyue was also afraid, she was desperate to protect herself. Hearing Luo Xiaotian's command, he nodded firmly: "Hmm! ”

Suddenly, the huge "birthday lantern" in the center of the square crashed towards the stargazing tower. On the ground around the lamp, countless corpses lay on the ground.

A thin figure dressed in black gauze flew straight up to the stargazing tower along the fallen giant lantern.

In a few steps, you are already on the upstairs terrace. He was followed by a tall and powerful masked man.

In an instant, more and more people in black flew up along the giant lanterns.

The woman in black gauze had just gone upstairs and used a sharp sword move. Wherever the sword light went, the soldiers in front of him spurted blood and fell to the ground instantly.

At this moment, a small black and gray animal suddenly burst out of the arms of the black-gauzed woman, soared into the air, and sprinkled a puff of smoke above the heads of the officers and soldiers. The smoke fell among them, the smell was unbearable, and they all covered their mouths and noses with their hands, temporarily losing their combat effectiveness.

The other ironclad men in black also rushed up and rushed to the middle of the officers and soldiers. These people are well-trained and highly skilled in martial arts. In an instant, the dead bodies were all over the ground, and they had already killed them in an instant.

At this moment, the emperor was close at hand, and only a few military attachés were left to guard him in the middle. Seeing the corpses strewn all over the ground and the fierce Assassins, some of the ministers and nobles were terrified, hiding in the corners, shivering and weeping.

Among the female dependents. Someone even fainted on the spot, and at this moment, Zhao Susu opened the crowd, looking for his father and younger brother.

The Assassins had no fears and were slowly approaching the Emperor. In their eyes, the supreme ruler of the Nanyu Kingdom was already in his pocket, and there was nowhere to escape. Although they covered their heads and faces, their eyes were full of hatred.

When the black-gauze woman was about to reach the emperor, several military attachés rushed up with swords. Before she could make a move, the scar-faced man behind him suddenly rushed out and quickly rushed towards the general. When the knife fell, a trace of blood appeared on the necks of the two military attachés, and then blood sprayed out, and their bodies stiffened and fell down.

Seeing the situation, the remaining military attachés did not stand back, and raised their swords to cut down the few black-clothed assassins who had just rushed up.

The death of her companion angered the woman in black veil.

She leaped into the air and drew her sword and stabbed at the military attachés. The sword light drew a cross in the air, and the sword body snapped and clanged. These actions are done in one go, and they are all completed in an instant.

I saw that she had fallen lightly behind the military attachés, put her sword into the sheath, and the military attachés fell to the ground with blood dripping from their mouths.

At this time, the emperor was no longer guarded, and he was ready to fight the Assassins with his sword. Just as he raised his sword, a sword light flashed in front of his eyes, and the sword qi shaved away a few strands of his hair, and the sword raised in his hand was also shaken down.

Before she could come back to her senses in a daze, the black gauze woman's sword was already on her neck.

The two looked at each other, and the black gauze woman spoke: "I didn't expect you to have today, this day, I have waited too long." When you get to the underworld, those unjust souls won't let you go, so go on your way! ”

The conversation stopped, and the woman in black raised her sword and slashed at him.

"Stop!"

A familiar voice came from behind her, and her sword involuntarily stopped in midair.

Hearing this voice, Zhao Susu also hurriedly squeezed out of the crowd and stood in front of people. Looking at it intently, he was shocked, and secretly shouted: "Xiaotian......"

Luo Xiaotian saw the assassin go upstairs and followed. He wants to stop the killing of the black veil woman, to awaken her soul that is waiting to be saved, to get rid of her inner demons, and to capture thousands of villagers in the village.

He walked behind the black-gauzed woman, whispered her name and said, "An An, stop." His Majesty the Emperor will forgive and pardon you. ”

Chen An'an, who was wearing a black veil and had a murderous face, tears were falling from the corners of his eyes at this moment, and his eyes were hazy. Tears ran down her cheeks and onto her beautiful collarbone, wetting her clothes. This was originally a rose blooming in the spring light, but at the moment it was suppressed by the gloom.

If it was anyone else, she wouldn't have stopped holding her sword. But at this moment, it was Luo Xiaotian who stopped her, and in his heart, his body had become a puppet of her longing heart.

The evening breeze blew into the balcony, lifting the blood-stained curtains, like a bright red cloud, and a smell of blood wafted in the air.

At this time, the Huwei rider who came downstairs had surrounded Chen Anan and several people in the middle.

Between the two sides of the stalemate. Luo Xiaotian looked at her eyes full of tears, and said for a long time: "Your heart demon, I'll help you cut it, now put down the sword." His Majesty the Emperor will forgive you without guilt. ”

Then he turned around and saluted respectfully to the emperor: "Your Majesty, please pardon this girl, she is just being bewitched." If His Majesty the Emperor agrees, I should advise her to turn back. ”

The emperor was silent. At this time, the king of Bei'an suddenly appeared and said: "Brother Huang, it is better to spare her from the death penalty and let her put down her sword, and she must not hurt the dragon body!" This young man is also a friend of his younger brother, and it was they who surrendered to the kraken in Lingyang City, this girl was already kind, and it must have been caused by being bewitched. I heard that Miao Jiang used Gu to be amazing, and I was afraid that he was taken by someone. ”

After a pause, King Bei'an suddenly continued with a meaningful expression: "Brother Huang, this young man's name is Luo Xiaotian. ”

Before the king of Bei'an stopped speaking, the emperor agreed: "Since you are a demon hero, as long as you put down your sword, I will definitely forgive you for your innocence." ”

At this time, Chen An'an was uncertain, his heart had been taken away by Luo Xiaotian, and his hand holding the sword began to tremble.

"Guest, don't—" Mo Li shouted behind him. "If you don't do it, your subordinates will force each other to die. Kill this faint king, so that thousands of unjust souls can rest in peace. ”

"An'an, no! The past is gone, you still have us, and Yunjian is also below. Do you know how happy he is today? He can still protect the little junior sister. Luo Xiaotian hurriedly persuaded. His Majesty the Emperor has no jokes, and I believe that you will be pardoned and acquitted. ”

"As long as the girl puts down the sword, I will make an edict to the emperor tonight in front of the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, and forgive you for your innocence." The emperor said indifferently at the moment.

"The Empress Dowager, the King of Bei'an and the officials of the Manchu Dynasty are here to witness, An'an, give me the sword." Luo Xiaotian comforted Chen An'an and went to take the sword she raised.

At this moment, Mo Li could no longer stand Chen An'an's indecisiveness, and drew his sword and stabbed at the emperor.

Seeing this, Luo Xiaotian hurriedly rushed out halfway, and Yun Gong launched a heavy palm, which hit Mo Li's chest impartially, and the palm force made his entire body fly out sideways and fall to the ground with a thud. The tiger rider next to him hurriedly stepped forward, and several swords were placed on his body in an instant.

Luo Xiaotian turned around, reached out to take Chen An'an's sword, and said softly: "Trust me, believe in His Majesty the Emperor, give me the sword ......"

The sword in his hand was taken down by him silently, and Chen An's mind wandered away, and his expression was indifferent to fate. Suddenly, her whole body fell out of thin air, her eyes closed, and she had fainted. Luo Xiaotian hurriedly stepped forward to catch her and held her in his arms.

The emperor was calm on the surface, but in his heart he was shocked, and quietly exhaled.

The Tiger Rider quickly surrounded him, protected him behind him, and guarded him.

"Take it!" At this time, the king of Bei'an suddenly shouted loudly and ordered the soldiers to arrest Chen An'an.

Immediately, several soldiers lifted Chen Anan from Luo Xiaotian's arms, and let him hold him tightly, to no avail, her body was pulled by the soldiers and broke free, and she could only watch her being taken downstairs.

"Your Majesty, is what you just said false? Why take them away? Luo Xiaotian got up and asked angrily.

"Bold Luo Xiaotian, can you talk to the emperor like this? Are you trying to deceive you? King Bei'an shouted to stop.

"Daddy, Xiaotian is right!" At this time, Zhao Susu said angrily. Immediately walked to Luo Xiaotian's side, asked with concern in his eyes, "Xiaotian, are you okay?" ”

Luo Xiaotian, who was still frustrated, looked at her, his eyes were in a trance, and he was silent......

After many days of preparation, there was an accident, which led to the failure of the rescue plan. Luo Xiaotian felt that he was looking too highly at the emperor in front of him, and that he had personally harmed Chen An'an. At this time, he felt guilty!
