There were bursts of screams and shouts of death on the steps of the main hall of Wanfu Palace.
A Jinwu Guard soldier wearing golden armor had his arm cut off with a knife and fell to the audience.
Blood spattered, and a man with gloomy eyes appeared behind him. This man had a hunched back, so even though he was also wearing the golden armor of a palace guard, it was obvious at a glance that he was a fake.
So, after muttering a few words, the man shrank his body and got out of the golden armor.
Looking over again, I saw that this man was holding two shining scimitars in his hands, and he was actually wearing a black cloak.
"Hehehe..." He smiled sinisterly, "It would be easier to take off that hard shell! Everyone says Dao Zun is careful, but we have already reached the Demon Queen's palace, why are we afraid of them?"
After saying that, he jumped forward, and like the legendary Duke Draco in the West, he first disappeared out of thin air, and then suddenly appeared in front of a golden-armored guard.
Uh-huh...
The sword flashed, and blood splattered from the golden armored guard's neck...
At this moment, more than a hundred people who had just sneaked into the palace had already reached the entrance of Wanfu Palace.
Each of these people possessed special skills and their moves were vicious and vicious. The palace guards guarding the main hall were no match for them. They were killed in a short time with corpses strewn all over the ground and rivers of blood flowing.
However, even so, these assassins still failed to break into the palace.
Because there are several palace guards with high martial arts skills at the entrance of the palace, struggling to resist the killing.
Although these people also wore armor similar to that of the Jinwu Guards, the armor was printed with unicorn patterns, and the helmets were also inlaid with animal heads.
It turned out that these people were the legendary Qilin Guards, the most reliable and highly skilled Ouchi masters around the Queen Mother.
But when I saw these people armed with weapons and blocking the way at the door, instead of letting these assassins rush into the palace, they killed several of them!
"Coming, coming! Hey hey hey..."
The hunchbacked assassin sneered, immediately put on his black robe, rushed to the front in the blink of an eye, and fought with a Qilin Guard.
This man's double swords were elusive and vicious, and he forced the Qilin Guard back a few steps with just one blow.
At this time, the elegant assassin leader came to the entrance of the hall under the protection of everyone.
After seeing the situation at the scene, he looked down at the common people and said: "It's no longer a matter of time. Anyone who stands in my way will die!"
"yes!"
Someone behind him agreed, but when he saw the man with the triangular eye and the scar opening his hands, two sharp claws popped out like a Wolverine!
"Hahaha..." he laughed excitedly, "I have been waiting for this moment for too long!"
After saying that, he flew towards the palace gate and started fighting with one of the Qilin guards.
This man's claws were fierce and sharp, and he only struck down with one claw. Although the Qilin Guard blocked the claws, he still couldn't stop taking several steps back.
"Coming!" At the same time, the pale-faced woman also picked up a long, thin sword and struck like a meteor in front of a certain Qilin Guard.
This Qilin guard also used his sword, and immediately shouted and blocked it with a sword.
However, I didn't expect this woman to be extremely vicious. With a flick of her wrist, a hidden arrow shot out from her sleeve and went straight to the front door of the Qilin Guard.
"ah!?"
After all, Qilin Guard is one of the best masters in the world. When he saw the hidden arrow coming, he knew he couldn't dodge it, so he immediately took back his sword and tried to ward off the hidden arrow.
Unexpectedly, the hidden arrow split into two parts in the air. One of them was knocked out by the sword, but the other one still shot towards the door.
"ah!"
Seeing that there was no way to avoid it, Qilin Guard had no choice but to forcefully twist his body and turn his head to avoid it.
Uh-huh...
The hidden arrow scratched his cheek and wedged itself firmly into the high threshold of the hall.
"Ah..." The next second, Qilin Guard was shocked and shouted, "Poisonous!!!"
When he reacted again, the wound on his cheek had turned black.
Even so, this Qilin Guard was deeply favored by the emperor. He still did not retreat even half a step, and already waved his sword to kill the pale-faced woman...
As the saying goes, two fists cannot defeat four hands. No matter how high the Qilin Guard's martial arts skills are, he cannot withstand the opponent's overwhelming numbers.
What's more, the three masters headed by them have vicious moves, and their martial arts skills are not inferior to those of the Qilin Guards.
Therefore, after not holding on for long, several Qilin Guards were forced to retreat steadily and had no choice but to retreat into the main hall.
What's worse is that someone in the Qilin Guard has been injured or poisoned, and is about to be swallowed up by many assassins.
Seeing that the main hall of Wanfu Palace was about to be captured, the graceful and luxurious woman looked proud and walked towards the entrance of the main hall step by step with steady steps.
Unexpectedly, just when she was about to enter the hall, a person suddenly jumped out from under the railing of the corridor!
This person came very unexpectedly. He pushed off the stone wall with one foot and jumped up several meters. Then he slashed down with his knife in the air and went straight to the head of this luxurious woman!
ah……
The assassins who were protecting the noble woman were all horrified. No one expected that a person would rush out from under the railing.
Moreover, this person's goal was very clear, and he obviously wanted to cut off the leader of the noble woman with one knife.
However, when he was stunned, it was obviously too late to rush over because of the suddenness of the incident.
As a result, just when the sword was about to hit the noble woman, a woman in green clothes dressed as a palace maid beside the noble woman flew out sideways and blocked the fatal blow with her body!
puff!
As blood spurted out, the woman in green was chopped down to the ground, but the attacker yelled in disappointment: "Mother, you're a bear! Missed!"
It turned out that the person who suddenly came out was Zhao Yu, who had been following the Xuanmen rebels underground!!!
When he discovered the marks used by Xuanmen to mark road signs, he finally followed the diagram and chased him out.
After he came out, he suddenly realized that the Xuanmen rebels had actually taken advantage of the renovation project of the Daxuan Taimiao.
A piece of the diamond under the palace was deliberately dug out, leaving an exit.
The Imperial Ancestral Temple and Wanfu Palace are separated by only a wall. It turned out that they wanted to enter Wanfu Palace through the palace wall.
When Zhao Yu and several divine arresters entered the Ancestral Temple, they found that the outposts inside the Ancestral Temple had already been eliminated by Xuanmen assassins.
Realizing that the matter was of great importance, Zhao Yu immediately asked the police to call for help while he chased into the palace alone.
Zhao Yu was also quite a thief. Before he came out, he grabbed a piece of clothing belonging to a palace guard.
At this moment, when he saw the Xuanmen assassins attacking the gate of Wanfu Palace, he simply put on his clothes and quietly followed the assassins' camp.
Through careful observation, he soon discovered that the graceful and luxurious woman was the leader of these assassins.
As long as she is dealt with, there may be a chance for a comeback.
So, he wanted to sneak into the woman's side and wait for an opportunity to strike.
Unfortunately, the luxurious woman was closely guarded and he could not get close.
Finally, seeing the luxurious woman about to enter the Wanfu Palace, he found an opportunity and climbed up from under the railing, preparing to capture the thief and the king.
However, what he never expected was that the luxurious woman was accompanied by a die-hard loyalist who sacrificed his life for the savior, and actually used his own life to block his own knife.
The luxurious woman did not expect that in this situation, someone would be able to stab her back, and her color changed slightly immediately.
"court death!"
At this time, the masters around the luxurious woman rushed towards Zhao Yu one after another. Zhao Yu did not dare to fight and wanted to stand up and jump down the steps.
However, there were assassins blocking the way at the steps. Zhao Yu had no choice but to run towards the Wanfu Palace...
