Chapter 8: Bloody Blade

Chapter 8: Hundred Battles Blood Blade
"kill!"

In the chaotic crowd, a burly man who was two meters tall and dressed in fine steel armor held a knife in both hands, and swung it like two rotating wind blades, and immediately cut the several imperial guards who were blocking the way into two halves.

"The abandoned disciple of the Vajra Sect, glaring at Wei Tuo!"

"Stop him quickly!"

Someone in the imperial guards shouted loudly, and more than ten people rushed up immediately.

But the big man laughed and strode towards him. An ordinary sword or knife could only leave a white mark on his body.

The two swords in his hands were as easy as chopping melons and vegetables, and he killed the several imperial guards who surrounded him.

In addition to him, there were seven or eight martial arts masters around, who chopped down the imperial guards who rushed up.

On the sedan chair, Zheng Yi looked at the big man who looked like a god descending from heaven, and his heart was filled with anxiety.

Damn it!

I knew this job was not going to be easy, as I encountered an assassination the first time I left the palace.

How can this be tolerated in the future?

At this moment, his eyes suddenly changed.

However, after most of the imperial guards were attracted away by the big man and several other men in black, more than ten figures suddenly rushed over from the roofs on both sides of Wenchang Road.

These dozen figures were very blurry against the backdrop of the night, but the weapons in their hands shocked Zheng Yi.

Crossbow!

This thing is a weapon, and it can only be equipped in the military.

How could this group of assassins have bows and crossbows?

However, the tense battlefield did not allow Zheng Yi time to think carefully, as the dozen assassins armed with powerful crossbows had already raised their crossbows.

At the critical moment, Zheng Yi hurriedly took off his heavy dragon robe and rushed out of the sedan chair.

"puff!"

"Puff!!"

In an instant, more than ten crossbow arrows cut through the sky like lightning and immediately pierced through the sedan chair he was riding in!
"Duh!"

"puff!"

"what……!"

The several imperial guards guarding the sedan chair screamed and fell to the ground.

The eunuchs and palace maids around were even more panicked and ran away screaming.

The entire sedan was shot into a hedgehog.

As for Zheng Yi, he had already laid on the ground, using the corpses of the imperial guards beside him to block himself.

"Can't run!"

"Since the assassin dared to kill here, he must have made some preparations."

"I can't run around. I can only stay here and wait for reinforcements."

"After all, this is the Emperor's territory. Even if these assassins want to kill us, they can only do so in a short time..."

When the second round of crossbow attacks came, the target was still the sedan chair, but the corpses on the ground had long been ignored.

Zheng Yi's guess was correct, as there was a sudden slight vibration from the ground.

A large number of torches appeared in the distance, they were the imperial guards stationed in the palace.

After receiving the order that the emperor had been assassinated, they rushed to support.

"The wind is so tight!"

"The dog emperor has been shot into a hedgehog, retreat quickly!"

"We have avenged the Tang King. Let's retreat quickly..."

This group of assassins came and left quickly. When they saw the sedan chair that Zheng Yi had just been riding in was shot into a hedgehog, they quickly retreated.

But how could the imperial guards let them go? They kept chasing them.

"Hehehe... If you dare to assassinate His Majesty, stay with us!"

Suddenly a feminine voice was heard, and the assassins on both sides of the houses on Wenchang Road wanted to retreat, but were stopped by Wang Zhongyi and his men.

It turned out that he had already been hiding behind this group of assassins in order to capture them alive!
He just flicked the whisk lightly, and the soft whisk stretched out like a python, easily knocking the leading black-clothed man to the ground. He vomited blood and fell from the second floor.

Behind him, there were still more than a dozen nimble young eunuchs.

Holding a three-foot-long green sword, he moved like a ghost, wandering around the dozen or so men in black.

The goal is not to kill the enemy, but to assassinate these people and then capture them alive.

"This Wang Zhongyi is indeed a master. Could he be practicing the "Sunflower Manual"? " Below the corpses, Zheng Yi was looking through the gap at the dozen people moving around on the roof.

Although these dozen assassins were all experienced fighters, none of them could match Wang Zhongyi, and he quickly knocked down several of them.

"Something is wrong... Wang Zhongyi is such a skilled martial artist, but he doesn't stay by the emperor's side to protect him. Instead, he's chasing after the assassin!"

Zheng Yi suddenly thought of something and his eyes became extremely ugly.

"This Wang Zhongyi, or the Emperor Zhengyong behind him, must have known that there was an assassin trying to kill him, so he made me the bait."

"Damn it... Fortunately, I was smart enough to hide under the corpse. Otherwise..."

"Get out of my way!"

Suddenly there was a loud explosion on the battlefield, and the angry Wei Tuo, who was surrounded by the imperial guards, suddenly ran away.

However, his whole body was wide open, and he swung the long sword in his hand wildly, cutting a big gap in the circle surrounding them, and rushed towards the outside.

"Humph!"

"Want to run? Where are you going!?"

Suddenly there was another loud bang, and a figure was seen falling from the sky, rushing towards the angry Wei Tuo as fast as an eagle.

While the angry Wei Tuo was charging, he pressed his palm on his shoulder.

"Corpse Poison Palm?"

Furious Wei Tuo said angrily: "Zhao family of Ganzhou!"

"die!"

The man didn't even talk to the angry Wei Tuo. He just walked up to him and continued to attack him with his bare hands.

"You are just a Zhao family, you dare to stop me? Aren't you afraid that I will kill all those little bastards from your Zhao family?"

The furious Wei Tuo shouted angrily, immediately threw away the long sword in his hand, and rushed towards the person who came with a punch.

For a moment, the two of them rushed around and fought madly.

One man's punches were powerful and his body was as strong as iron, and his momentum was violent.

One of them had a sinister and cunning palm technique, his figure was like a ghost, and there was a foul and poisonous smell all around him.

For a while, no one dared to approach the range where the two were fighting. From time to time, unlucky guys were hit and fell to the ground with screams.

"This is... Zhao Wuji?"

Zheng Yi recognized at a glance the gold medal priest of the Temple of Worship who had taught him for a few days. He didn’t expect that he was so powerful.

"This angry-eyed Wei Tuo is a master who is good at opening and closing his body. He is definitely a top-notch master."

"Zhao Wuji looks like he is about to die, but I didn't expect him to be so strong!"

Zheng Yi lay on the ground and thought secretly, as more and more reinforcements came from the direction of the palace and the sounds of fighting became quieter and quieter.

It seems that it is only a matter of time before this group of assassins is pacified.

However, Zheng Yi didn't want to show up. What if there were assassins hiding?
"My king has been nurturing scholars for more than ten years. How could we be cowards who are afraid of death?"

Suddenly, another round of roars was heard, and the few remaining men in black who were trapped by Wang Zhongyi roared and gritted their teeth.

Then his whole body trembled, his eyes widened with anger, he suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, and fell to the ground, it was obvious that he was not going to survive.

"Damn...!"

Wang Zhongyi let out a long sigh and gritted his teeth, "Death warriors!"

"The Tang King's lineage has been exterminated, how could there still be assassins?"

"Who the hell is that?"

More and more reinforcements arrived, and soon the entire Wenchang Road was surrounded by the imperial guards.

Not only the imperial guards, but also troops from the Palace of Worship, the Imperial City Administration, the Imperial Guards and other armies rushed over.

"Order! Close the city gates and search for the assassin!"

"Catch the living assassin and put him in the prison. We will interrogate him personally!"

"Your Majesty... find Your Majesty quickly!"

The entire Wenchang Road immediately fell into chaos. Zheng Yi knew it was time to come out, so he immediately turned over the corpse and stood up.

"Your Majesty, are you okay~"

"I'm fine, come quickly...!"
