Chapter 7, let us go! Follow this king to kill!
Liu Xu moved with fluid grace, fully embodying his current identity. With a kick, he sent the corpse that had fallen before him into the room, the door splintered as he shot into the interior.
Ah!
In disbelief, he exclaimed, "Wasn't the Crown Prince deposed? Why is his strength even greater than mine?" Just as he prepared to counterattack, everything went dark before his eyes
Creak!
The words from outside the hall, the natural passage within the hall, a guard captain hesitated slightly and cautiously asked the middle-aged, overweight man seated in the main position
Your Highness! No one is allowed to enter without the Lord's command! Please return!" said the two guards flippantly, showing no regard for the Crown Prince.
The victor shall be king
Upon seeing the lifeless body of the guard in the middle, the expression of the man in the main seat changed dramatically, and the plump man’s face shifted slightly as he crushed the wine glass in his hand
Bang
However, what awaited him was a twinge of pain, which then magnified infinitely. In the brief span of one second, Zhou Cang's attack had arrived, striking down at his waist.
Ah!
Start!
The wine spilled down, and without a care, it was wiped off the soft armor on the body. The corpulent figure stood, exuding an overwhelming presence. "What does the Crown Prince mean by this?"
Clang!
... ...
Zhou Cang, who was behind, heard the command and, like a fierce tiger or wolf, suddenly dashed forward into the hall, wielding a large knife in his hand, which took off a head.
Go! Yang Peng will go to kill! Before leaving, Zhou Cang took his only little brother with him, who was the guard that had been frightened unconscious by Liu Xu and was also protected.
Zhou Cang's relentless assault, his body exerting force, the Guan Gong knife in his hand deeply embedded into Hong Sheng's body, with a fierce twist, Hong Sheng was left without a breath of life, his eyes revealing a profound unwillingness.
While others do not have high hopes for the Crown Prince, at this moment, Yang Peng holds a very favorable view. After three days of interaction, Zhou Cang trains him daily, proving to be an absolutely second-rate general
A roar of excitement erupted from his mouth, as if a thousand pounds of force surged into his legs, propelling his body into the air, while his hand swung the large blade downwards in a sweeping motion
In a moment of haste, the commanding expression of Liu Xu changed dramatically after receiving a strike, and after the next blow, the sword in his hand trembled, causing his palm to feel numb.
Heng Sheng was astonished, and what added to his anxiety was the enormous noise beside him, which made him increasingly uneasy
Your Highness! The Crown Prince has arrived! What do you think?
Liu Xu, having dealt with the last commander, coldly smiled upon seeing the two figures engaged in battle in the arena, and with one hand, he grasped the marble tabletop.
He suddenly yanked and spun around several times, throwing it towards Hongsheng with a loud noise; he certainly did not have a one-on-one rule
Boom
The rise of Zhou Cang involved the killing of four commanders, and he was reluctant to kill Liu Xu's opponent, when he saw a fat man lunging at him
The two guards dropped their swords to the ground, their expressions filled with fear, their pupils dilated, and their hands weakly clutching their necks, unable to stop the flow of blood.
Liu Xu, stepping out with a confident demeanor and a stern expression, is incredibly charming, while Meng Bingyu, Chun Yue, Xia Rou, and Qiu Qin all have flushed faces.
A weapon that is one inch long is one inch stronger
Feeling a strong wind behind him, Hong Sheng swiftly countered with a slash, cleaving the marble in two as he prepared to block the incoming attack in front of him
The individual named Hong Sheng, before entering the palace, was a mere commoner, yet he had also experienced numerous battles and was capable of facing a full-force strike from an opponent of equal standing.
Welcome!
Without any surprise, after completely absorbing the medicines in the storage, the level has surpassed that of a third-rate martial general, with strength reaching seven hundred jin
He realized that Zhou Cang was Liu Xu's support; by killing Zhou Cang, Liu Xu would pose no threat. He regarded the strength of a third-rate general as insignificant.
Your Highness, the Crown Prince
This king shall establish the rules
As he opened the door and entered, the guards on either side of the door reached out to block Liu Xu, their expressions haughty, looking at Liu Xu with disdain
What a skillful move, slicing through Mount Hua!
At the very least, it is a single-arm weight of 200 pounds; how could a waste with a shattered dantian possibly harm them
The subordinate obeys! Watching the excited Crown Prince and his superior, Yang Peng forced a smile and quickly followed behind.
Feeling the surge of power within him, Liu Xu was truly radiant, smiling as he said: "Let us go! Follow me to kill!"
The entire imperial city is shrouded in a sense of impending storm, while in contrast, the Eastern Palace exudes an aura of a paradise untouched by the world
Moreover, the loyalty to the Crown Prince is simply outrageous. Anyone who speaks a single ill word against the Crown Prince will undoubtedly be met with a fierce glare, and if they resort to insults, blood will surely stain the blade.
Liu Xu did not speak; he deemed it beneath him to repeat the same words, his palm resting on the hilt of the sword
Bang
Get lost!" Liu Xu was instantly enraged, shouting angrily, unable to believe that a mere guard dared to obstruct him
The two sides are evenly matched in strength, but the length of the weapon in the opponent's hand is twice that of his own, giving the opponent a significant advantage. He can only defend and is unable to repel the opponent's attacks or launch a counterattack.
The two guards, upon witnessing this, not only showed no signs of tension but instead burst into hearty laughter, filled with mockery, capable of serving as guards in the Eastern Palace
He forgot one thing
How is that possible
On the morning of the fourth day, the door that had been closed for three days opened, and Liu Xu emerged from the room dressed in a python dragon robe
Bang
Rules are meant to be broken
Two corpses, two doors were smashed into the room, landing in the center of the room, with six commanders of the Eastern Palace guards on either side of the hall
"Good, good, good! I did not expect that His Highness the Crown Prince possesses such skills!" In an instant, as the situation unfolded, the overweight man reacted, letting out a roar, seizing the large knife from the table, and charging towards Zhou Cang.
Liu Xu let out a cold laugh, and the sharp sword was drawn in an instant, its silver light slicing through the air, splattering two streams of fresh blood
As soon as the words were spoken, the previously elegant and poised atmosphere was completely shattered, and Meng Bingyu, Chun Yue, and others suddenly recalled Liu Xu's decisive and ruthless nature.
In a hurried attempt to defend, the opponent's attacks became increasingly intense. Noticing the nonchalance on the opponent's face, cold sweat instantly dripped down.
Liu Xu kicked the commander away and swiftly moved towards another commander, killing him with two strikes
The corners of the mouth reveal a sinister smile, an excited expression, and a general who has a penchant for killing
The first person Liu Xu chose to kill was naturally the so-called offering, a second-rate military general bestowed by the emperor, whose position was almost entirely controlled by the guards of the Eastern Palace
Kill
Kill them all! Not a single one left! Liu Xu's eyes scanned the hall as he coldly spoke, his body swiftly rushing towards the nearest commander.
The general's great sword is already eager and impatient! Zhou Cang's face revealed a sinister smile, exceptionally fierce, thus anyone who intends to harm the lord must die
... ...
Daring not to engage directly, the body rolled away like a wild donkey, easily evading the attack, and was preparing to counterattack, but the opponent's frenzied assault had already arrived
Hahaha! What prince? He is merely a waste who has lost the grace of the sacred due to a shattered dantian! Come! Everyone, drink!
Arriving at the place of worship, listening to the sounds of revelry and drinking inside, Liu Xu's expression was cold, asserting that what belongs to this king must be returned
