" Commander Wang Don't deceive yourself! If you let us go today, you'll earn a favor from the future prince and receive a reward. Isn't that beautiful? Why force us so urgently!"
The old man wanted to persuade this person, because in the current panic escape, only the old man as the steward of the the Su family, the newborn prince, and two low-level servants were no match for the twelve forbidden army in the middle level.
The leader of the king's men said no more, slowly approaching with his men. He secretly glanced at the sword at his waist, pondering whether Noble Consort Su had given any secret treasures to her son. He thought, if they were to encounter the treasure's power, it would not be worth the risk. But fortunately, the empress had given...
Seeing that the Commander Wang was unyielding, the old man seemed to make a decision. "Since that's the case..." Before he could finish his sentence, the carriage exploded, and the old man suddenly disappeared. At the same time, two figures leaped out of another carriage, attempting to break through. The six besieging soldiers naturally could not let them escape and blocked their way with their spears.
Several onlookers in the distance all had their pupils constrict, not because they saw something, but because they couldn't see clearly the movements of those people!
The language spoken by these people didn't surprise the crowd, but the speed of their movements was truly terrifying.
"Sure enough, this is not a peaceful place..." Huangpu Xin sighed softly, realizing that his plan to fatten up in the deep mountains and become the legendary swordsman of Tenli Slope would have to be postponed.
"Where do you think you're going!" Commander Wang, who was on guard for the treasure, also did not expect that the prince in the old man's car was a decoy, and the real prince was in another car. This old man actually entrusted the prince to a servant!? With a calculated move, the imperial guards were outsmarted by a shadow, breaking through the encirclement and speeding into the woods.
Commander Wang Lemar wants to chase, but he is hit by a powerful punch from behind, which is the old man's technique of punching from the sky. Even though he is wearing the Mingguang armor, he feels a bit out of breath and spits out a mouthful of bruised blood.
"Don't mind me, hurry and chase!" Commander Wang orders, drawing his sword, "Old man, let's see how many moves you've got left!" He swings the sword, gleaming with a dark light.
The old man's face was flushed, but he didn't dare to confront the sharp edge head-on. Commander Wang knew that the low-level servant couldn't escape the hands of the forbidden army, so he played it safe, relying on his armor to injure with his sword. The two men moved and fought, exchanging blows within a few breaths.
On the other side, Huangpu Xin and his group were watching the spectacle, but unexpectedly became involved. A figure escaping from the encirclement in a carriage headed straight for the hidden woods where they were.
"Change of plan! Save the old man!" Huangpu Xin made a decision after a moment of thought. As Wang Na disappeared into the darkness, Zhuge Ning felt it was his chance to shine. He took up his peach wood sword and charged forward, while Ma Yunyang, who was supposed to watch over Huangpu Xin, did not make a move. Chenhao, hearing about the rescue, thought that Ma Yunyang had a change of heart and naturally took the lead in planning to control the imperial guards.
"Hmm? Something's not right. My mental control has been weakened!" Chenhao exclaimed as he watched the imperial guards, who were only experiencing headaches but still pursuing, in front of him.
"A few heroes, save us!" the shadow shouted.
Naturally, the other party also saw the crowd. From a distance, Commander Wang saw that there were outsiders and secretly ordered to leave none.
The soldiers, despite their splitting headaches, were determined to stab the nearest Chenhao to death. However, their spears suddenly veered off uncontrollably, and by the time they regained control, Chenhao had already retreated into the woods. It was the magnetic force of Ma Yunyang that had taken effect, as these people, despite their strong martial prowess, could not overcome the influence of metal weapons.
"[The threat is too great, kill them all, leave no survivors.]" Huangpu Xin secretly transmitted to Wang Na, while attempting to appear nonchalant: "Hey hey hey, esteemed generals, we have come from a foreign land. Is there anything we can assist with?"
The soldiers did not speak either. The recent weapon malfunction and Zhuge Ning's fireball had injured the warhorses, so they simply dismounted one after another.
At this moment, the soldiers also realized that these fair-haired and blue-eyed foreigners had some skills, so they surrounded them. Just as the encirclement was formed, Wangan made her move.
The advantage of dual-wielding daggers is that you can backstab two people at once, which is efficient and convenient. - Wang Na's diary
"Yunyang!" Yunyang danced around, scattering iron shavings into the battlefield at Huangpu Xin's reminder.
Upon looking at the old man again, his once flushed face gradually turned pale, and his momentum began to decline. The two who were evenly matched at first were about to determine the outcome.
"The overall situation is set, Mr. Chen, I believe your injuries are enough to send you on your way!" Commander Wang saw the clues. The old man's earlier changes must have been suppressing hidden injuries. He forcefully mobilized his energy, but now his true energy was depleted, and his life was not long!
"Phew! Even if I die, I will drag you down with me!" Wanting to use my true energy to perish together with the opponent, but unexpectedly a sword pierced through my chest. The old man was shocked: "This is... a spiritual treasure..."
Commander Wang recalled the split sword: "That's right, the queen is far-sighted, foreseeing not only that thieving immortal but also stubborn old folks like you, and specially bestowed this lightsaber to exterminate the traitors!"
"I, hey..." The old man wanted to say something but ended up letting out a meaningless laugh and fell to the ground.
"You laugh at what, I should be the one laughing... uh..." A dagger pierced through the chest, another dagger slashed across the neck, the same situation appeared on his own body, but he couldn't laugh anymore.
Looking at the bodies on the ground, everyone felt heavy. After all, no one had ever killed anyone, even in the task world, only Wang Na had.
But Huangpu Xin didn't mind. There were plenty of dead people in Zone A. What he cared more about was the damage to his own side: Chenhao was stabbed as soon as he rushed out, Wang Na was finally stabbed by Lingbao, and Ma Yunyang was shot by a crossbow arrow without being prepared.
"Still reckless, didn't consider the possibility of mental control failure despite our advantage, and didn't take them down one by one. We should have seized the opportunity to launch a surprise attack," came the thoughts as the person arrived next to the old man who was barely breathing.
"Any last words?" Huangpu Xin asked.
The old man died without saying a word, but managed to pull out a jade pendant before breathing his last.
Huangpu Xin sighed. Wang Na was very fast. For those who didn't understand the Shadow Step, killing enemies of the same level was as easy as cutting vegetables. However, the old man had already made up his mind to die. Even if he hadn't been stabbed through the chest, the triggered hidden injury couldn't have been saved.
Upon closer inspection, the jade pendant seemed to have energy flowing inside it under the sunlight, with a single character "Su" engraved on it. Huangpu Xin played with the jade pendant in his hand and sensed that there was indeed a significant flow of energy.
Turning to the maid holding the baby in front of him, Huangpu Xin said, "We come from a foreign land and are not familiar with the local customs here. We don't understand the recent twists and turns, so I hope you can tell us, so we can help you."
Just this maid is not easy to deceive: "This is the token of the border city the Su family, if you can escort the young master to the Su family, there will be a generous reward."
Huangpu Xin shook his head: "The old man entrusted me before he died, and I must send you two to the Su family, but I should be familiar with the ins and outs of the situation at this time, otherwise it would not be easy to handle."
Huangpu Xin seemed indifferent to the gravity of the situation, leaving the maid at a loss. As a low-level martial artist, she had no chance of surviving the pursuit from all sides long enough for the immortal to intervene and save her, let alone to escort the prince on a journey of over ten thousand miles to reach the Su family. The foreigner before her seemed to be the best choice.
The maid's dilemma did not escape Chenhao's notice. "Is it really this difficult to help someone these days? What about trust between people?"
After a while, the maid seemed to make up her mind: "Gentlemen, this is the prince of Nanli."
