"No wonder there are so many Imperial Guards around His Majesty, but only three of them ran out, and they were all seriously injured and on the verge of death."
If all the assassins who come to assassinate have this ability, ordinary imperial guardsmen will be able to chop melons and vegetables one by one against them, without the ability to fight back.
Their elite level is comparable to that of the Dragon Scale Guards under Zhan Beihan.
It's a pity that she was the one I met.
Xiao Lingyue turned sideways to avoid the blade, and the soft sword in her hand seemed to have spirituality, twisting around the assassin's right wrist and directly cutting off the tendon.
"Ah..." The assassin screamed in pain, and blood spurted out from his wrist.
He instinctively stepped back, but Xiao Lingyue was faster than him. The soft sword wrapped around his neck along his arm, and the blade was close to his skin.
"Let me ask you one last time, who sent you here?" she said coldly.
The assassin stood frozen and stared at her.
"Your movement skills don't look like those from Northern Qin." Xiao Lingyue had already seen the flaw, and her eyes flickered with suspicion, "You are light and flexible, and you have a military feel. Are you from the Nanyan army?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the assassin closed his eyes and hit the sword blade without hesitation!
In an instant, blood splattered everywhere.
Xiao Lingyue's soft sword was so sharp that it could cut her skin with just a touch. The assassin hit her neck directly, and she didn't even have time to stop.
The body fell heavily to the ground.
Xiao Lingyue's eyelids twitched: "..."
She would rather die than reveal her identity. This extreme reaction proved that she was right!
These assassins are not from the civilian population, but are dead soldiers trained in the Nanyan army.
"Oops!"
Xiao Lingyue's expression suddenly changed and she hurried forward.
After bypassing several clumps of tall trees, the road ahead revealed a simple and solemn palace.
The palace is small in area and is covered by thick shrubs on all sides. The environment is extremely quiet. There is a small square paved with bluestones in front of the palace gate.
At this moment, blood flowed like a river in the square.
The ground was littered with the corpses of the Imperial Guards, lying scattered across the ground, leaving almost no place to stand.
The pungent smell of blood mixed with the thick smoke of burning tung oil hit my face. The gray-black smoke was locked in the surrounding tall shrubs and lingered around, making even my vision blurry.
"Ahem..." Xiao Lingyue was caught off guard and choked and coughed repeatedly.
As soon as the thick smoke was inhaled, my throat felt burning and stinging, and I was speechless.
Xiao Lingyue immediately held her breath and looked ugly.
These thick smoke are poisonous smoke produced by burning tung oil, which is also mixed with drugs. Once inhaled, it will burn the throat and make people unable to make a sound.
The sealing skills are really good!
No wonder, the few imperial guards who escaped were all hoarse and almost speechless.
No wonder, there was a lot of bloodshed here, but no one outside heard anything.
Seven or eight black-clothed assassins hid in the smoke, waving their swords, and frantically attacked and killed the remaining Forbidden Army. Each of them was defeated by one enemy or ten. Although the Forbidden Army was large in number, due to the limited area of the square, they could not perform effectively.
He could only hold back his face while resisting with all his might while protecting his other companions and frantically hitting the palace door at the back.
"Bang!" "Bang!"......
Xiao Lingyue finally knew where the muffled sound came from.
Looking at this situation, Emperor Zhaoming was probably trapped in the prayer hall, not knowing whether he was dead or alive.
Without saying a word, she rushed into the battle circle with a sword. The soft sword was dexterous and cruel, and she directly grabbed an assassin by the neck and wiped his throat instantly! Popular ""
